Chapter 68: Sister, I’m Back (1)
A happy smile appeared on Ji Yinbing’s lips. “I’ll prepare everything. When are you coming?”
“In the next two days.”
“Okay.”
Before hanging up, Ji Yinbing cautiously said to him, “An, I’ll wait for you.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t back down again.”
After hanging up the call, Fang Yusheng held his forehead. He could not help but recall the days when he could see with his eyes.

As Qiao Jiusheng stood on the road opposite the Fang Corporation building, she watched Qiao Jiuyin carry the lunch box into the building.
Raising her head, she looked at the tall building. A sly smile appeared on her lips.
Qiao Jiuyin had been feeling better recently. She often brought food to the company to see Fang Mu and eat with him. Everyone in the company praised the Vice President and the Madam for their loving relationship. Only Qiao Jiuyin knew that she was afraid Fang Mu would cheat on her while she was pregnant.
The love she had stolen from her sister could never make her feel at ease.
Fang Mu was very happy to see Qiao Jiuyin.
“Didn’t I tell you to rest at home? Why are you here again?” He got up, took Qiao Jiuyin’s jacket, and hung it on the coat rack.
Qiao Jiuyin looked up at him and mischievously smiled. “What’s wrong? You don’t welcome me?” Before Fang Mu could say anything, Qiao Jiuyin’s eyes shifted. She pretended to be angry. “Don’t tell me you’re hiding a beautiful woman in the office and afraid that I’ll find out.”
Fang Mu hugged her waist and chuckled. “Then, you’re welcome to search anytime.”
Qiao Jiuyin pushed him away and snorted. “Tsk, I’ll let you off this time.”
She sat on the sofa and arranged the food. Fang Mu sat down beside her and stretched his hand toward her abdomen. Qiao Jiuyin was over four months pregnant, and her abdomen was slightly protruding, showing signs of pregnancy. Fang Mu asked her, “Can you feel the baby moving?”
Qiao Jiuyin laughed at his childish words. “It’s still going to take a while.”
“Oh right, I’m going to the prenatal checkup the day after tomorrow. Do you have time to accompany me?”
“Sure.”
Fang Mu straightforwardly replied.
Hearing the direct answer, Qiao Jiuyin felt sweet.
“Alright, let’s eat.”
“Yeah.”
After she had gotten pregnant, Qiao Jiuyin’s appetite had become stronger than before. She ate two bowls of rice. When the meal was done, Qiao Jiuyin got up and said to Fang Mu, “I’m going to the washroom.”
“Okay.”
Qiao Jiuyin entered the toilet. She had just sat down when her phone suddenly rang.
It was a message.
She opened the mailbox and realized that the message came from an unknown number.
When she opened the message, a picture popped up in front of her eyes.
The photo was of a girl wearing a red down jacket mischievously and beautifully smiling at the camera. Her black hair was tied into a ponytail, her tea eyes were bright, and her smile was bright and beautiful. This girl was Qiao Jiusheng.
“Ah—”
Qiao Jiuyin suddenly exclaimed in surprise. The phone fell from her palm and landed on the floor.
She quickly pulled up her pants and leaned against the wall to take a few deep breaths. Only then did she slowly squat down and pick up the phone. She then enlarged the phone and stared at Qiao Jiusheng in the photo. Her eyes were filled with panic and uneasiness. Suppressing the sudden fear in her heart, she opened the photo again.
When Qiao Jiuyin zoomed in on the photo, she realized that the background of the photo was from a coffee shop.
She knew this cafe. It was the cafe opposite the Fang Corporation building. Qiao Jiuyin put away her phone and walked out of the toilet. She washed her hands and stared at the woman in the mirror for a moment. Then, she pretended to be calm and walked out of the washroom.
“Fang Mu, I’m a little tired, so I’ll go back and rest.”
Hearing that his wife was tired, Fang Mu put down the pen in his hand and stood up. He said to her, “I’ll send you downstairs.”
Qiao Jiuyin thought that Qiao Jiusheng might still be loitering downstairs. She did not dare to take the risk.
“No need, you can continue with your work. I’m leaving.”
After saying that, Qiao Jiuyin carried her bag and walked out of the office. Fang Mu insisted on sending her downstairs. He grabbed the lunchbox on the table and chased after her. Holding Qiao Jiuyin’s hand from the back, Fang Mu said to her, “What’s the rush? I’ll send you downstairs. It won’t cause a delay. Work will last forever anyway.”
Qiao Jiuyin gently smiled at him. “Alright.”
The two of them took the high-level elevator to the first floor of the building.
As she stood in the elevator, Qiao Jiuyin kept silently pleading, hoping that Fang Mu would not bump into Qiao Jiusheng.
