Aunt Jin was entertaining him and Dai Chukong. Dai Chukong was already nineteen years old. Her appearance was completely open, and she stood tall and slender. Her appearance was not especially exquisite and outstanding, but her temperament was outstanding. She sat quietly and actually had the feeling of a classic beauty.
Fang Yuqing had gone overseas to study. Once she left, Dai Chukong did not have any particularly good friends. Sometimes, when she took leave, Dai Chukong would come to the Fang family home to accompany Qiao Jiusheng and the two children.
Fang Zikai was quite happy to see Dai Chukong.
He ran to Dai Chukong’s side and hugged her. “Sister Chukong, why are you here today? Are you thinking of Kai Kai?” The little fellow looked up at her cutely.
The two children of the Fang family were both exquisite and cute. Their porcelain-white faces had some baby fat, their eyelashes were long, and their mouths were pink. Their delicate looks were irresistible.
Dai Chukong hugged him and pressed her face against his. The two of them played coquettishly for a while before Dai Chukong put Fang Zikai down. She looked at Fang Zicheng and nodded solemnly at him. She shouted, “Cheng Cheng.”
Fang Zicheng looked like a prime minister meeting his country’s leader. He had a serious expression and nodded at Dai Chukong. Then, he said, “Hello, Sister Chukong.”
Dai Chukong was a little embarrassed.
She was really not used to such a serious greeting.
Qi Bufan greeted Sir and Madam before starting to talk to Fang Zikai. The two of them had a good time.
Qiao Jiusheng changed into her own clothes after leaving the shop. She carried the bag containing the Chinese clothes in her hand and sat down beside Dai Chukong. All these years, Dai Chukong had gradually grown taller, and now she was even taller than Qiao Jiusheng. When the two of them sat together, they did not seem like they were of different generations. Instead, they looked like sisters.
Qiao Jiusheng asked her, “Chukong didn’t attend class today?”
“Yes. He’s injured. I came back to take care of him.”
Qiao Jiusheng had long noticed Dai Chukong addressing Qi Bufan.
She did not call Qi Bufan father, but “him”.
At first, Qiao Jiusheng was also surprised. Later on, through observation, she realized a reason that shocked her. She was worried about Qi Bufan’s dullness. He probably really did not know what Dai Chukong was thinking about him.
Dai Chukong saw Qiao Jiusheng’s bag. She looked inside and recognized the Chinese clothes. She was surprised.
“Is it Qing Chu’s new design?”
“Have you been paying attention to Qing Chu’s house too?” Qiao Jiusheng had been quite obsessed with this shop recently. The moment she opened her mouth, she could not hold back her words.
The two of them chatted about clothes while Fang Yusheng and Qi Bufan talked about the training base.
Qi Bufan’s leg was injured this time. A few days ago, he brought his students into the forest for the wilderness survival assessment, but they encountered a wild boar. His leg was injured by the wild boar’s fangs. Even though he was injured, Qi Bufan was energetic.
Men with successful careers became more confident.
Fang Yusheng teased him, “Now that your career is successful and your daughter has grown up, you don’t plan to find a wife?”
Qi Bufan felt a headache coming on.
“Why should I look? My daughter is already so old, why should I look for a wife…” Qi Bufan was a little embarrassed.
Fang Yusheng laughed that he was going to be a bachelor for the rest of his life, but Qi Bufan pretended not to hear him.
“Oh right, we have the first batch of retired military dogs. They might be old, but they’re in good spirits.”
“They’ll get better slowly.”
“Yeah.”
As they chatted, Fang Zikai, who had nothing to do, turned on the television.
The moment he turned on the television, he saw a television drama. Fang Zikai did not recognize a single word and only felt that the female lead was really good-looking. He sat on the sofa and watched it. He heard the young female lead say to the male lead, “I really like you, but in order to be worthy of a better you, please give me time to grow up and wait for me to become stronger. Only then will I be qualified to stand by your side.”
Fang Zikai could not understand. He did not understand why they had to be separated for five years if they liked each other.
Couldn’t they grow up together?
Tsk!
At this moment, Qi Bufan noticed the television drama subtitles and turned to look. He was surprised to see the girl’s young face in the television drama. “This girl is only in her teens.” The girl was wearing a high school uniform and was definitely not old.
Fang Yusheng was cutting fruits and ignored him.
Qiao Jiusheng and Dai Chukong looked at the person on the television. Qiao Jiusheng said, “At most 17 or 18 years old.”
Qi Bufan frowned.
He held his tea and walked to Dai Chukong’s side to sit down. He frowned and looked at the television. He watched for a long time before saying, “She started dating at the age of seventeen or eighteen and even agreed to spend the rest of her life with him…” He thought that he was indeed old and could not keep up with the times.
Dai Chukong suddenly asked him, “Are you very against students dating when they’re studying?”
Qi Bufan thought for a moment and shook his head.
“I’m just a little surprised. That’s still a child in her teens. How would she know so much love?”
A light flashed across Dai Chukong’s eyes.
Was that so?
Seeing the change in Dai Chukong’s expression, Qi Bufan realized that his child was not old. There were too many university students dating now. Chukong might have a boy she liked. Would she be unhappy when she heard what he said?
Qi Bufan changed his words and said, “However, when love comes, you can’t stop it. You can’t say that you don’t know love just because you’re young.”
“Yeah.”
Dai Chukong did not say anything else, but her expression became better.
Dai Chukong turned to talk to Qiao Jiusheng again, while Qi Bufan was deep in thought.
They stayed in the Fang family home until past nine o’clock before leaving.
After they left, Fang Yusheng saw that it was getting late and turned off the television. Fang Zikai insisted on watching, but Fang Yusheng chased them back to their room. “Go to your room and wait for me. I’ll come up later to bathe you.”
“…Okay.”
Watching the two little fellows leave the living room and cross the courtyard to their rooms, Fang Yusheng came to Qiao Jiusheng’s side.
“What are you talking about?”
Qiao Jiusheng was chatting with Fang Yuqing on WeChat. She said, “Qingqing has been acting a little strange recently.”
“What do you mean?”
“She asked me a question just now.”
“Hm?”
“She asked me, what do you think of Jiang Wei?”
Fang Yusheng didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with this question. “This question is very normal.”
“Is it normal?” Qiao Jiusheng said that Fang Yusheng was silly. She said, “You know very well how Qingqing and Jiang Wei got engaged. All these years, the two of them have been engaged. You and I don’t know what Qingqing is thinking. We don’t know what Jiang Wei thinks of Qingqing either.”
“I don’t think it’s a good thing for Qingqing to suddenly ask this.”
Hearing her analysis, Fang Yusheng also felt that there was something strange about this matter. “Ask her what she wants to do.”
“I asked, but she didn’t elaborate. She just said that she needed to reconsider her relationship with Jiang Wei.”
“It’s too late now. I’ll call her tomorrow to ask.”
“Let’s go bathe them first. It’s getting late.”
“Okay.”
