Chapter 258: Fang Meili And Fang Keai

To Qiao Jiuyin, perhaps the law’s punishment for her was not a real punishment.

The real punishment was that she would not be able to see her son with her eyes even till her death. She would not be able to touch her son.

In a car far away, Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng sat side by side. Qiao Jiusheng watched as Fang Mu carried Fang Shan into the Bentley and left. She curled her lips and said, “Yusheng, we have to do more good things to benefit our children.”

Fang Yusheng held her hand and gently pinched the tip of her finger. The soft flesh felt very comfortable in his palm. “Okay.”

He vowed that when he was done with the last thing as soon as possible, he would never do anything bad again.

Thinking of something, Qiao Jiusheng asked again, “I bit Qiao Jiuyin’s ear and blinded her. Will I go to prison?”

Fang Yusheng shook his head. “No, I’ve already gotten someone to settle it.”

“That’s good.”

Qiao Jiusheng did not want to go to prison after giving birth.

On the night Qiao Jiuyin was imprisoned, Qiao Yunfan’s condition suddenly worsened. Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng, who had already arrived at the airport in a car and were preparing to return to Binjiang City, immediately rushed back after receiving Ji Qing’s call.

When the security guards and helpers in the manor saw Qiao Jiusheng, their expressions turned complicated.

In the past, who did not envy the Qiao family’s twins being as beautiful as flowers and having a good relationship? However, these days, the matter between Qiao Jiuyin and Qiao Jiusheng had spread throughout the city. It was reported in papers and on television. Now, everyone knew about the despicable things that the Qiao family’s twins had done.

The amount of envy and praise those people had for the Qiao family in the past was nothing compared to the amount of slander and contempt the family was getting now.

Pushing open Qiao Yunfan’s door, Qiao Jiusheng was about to enter when Fang Yusheng’s phone suddenly rang.

He looked at the name of the caller, grabbed Qiao Jiusheng’s hand, and said to her, “Go in first. I have a call to pick up. I have something to tell you later.” Fang Yusheng’s expression was serious. Qiao Jiusheng stared at him before nodding.

Qiao Yunfan’s breathing had become very heavy. It was so heavy that it was almost inaudible.

Seeing Qiao Jiusheng come, Qiao Sen stepped aside and reserved a seat for her.

Ji Qing pulled Qiao Jiusheng to her side and said to Qiao Yunfan, “Grandpa, Xiao Sheng is back!”

Qiao Yunfan’s eyes seemed to be spinning. A trace of saliva flowed out of the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were a little red.

He had probably heard some rumors from the helper that had worsened his condition.

Even though he could not speak, his fingers, which were hanging on the bed, were trembling slightly.

Qiao Jiusheng looked at her grandfather. She had many consoling and unwilling words to say, but when those words reached her mouth, she lost the courage to speak them.

This home was broken.

She was too ashamed to face Qiao Yunfan.

Qiao Yunfan stared at the ceiling. Gradually, the light in his eyes disappeared.

It looked like Old Master Qiao Yunfan wouldn’t make it through tonight.

As the eldest grandson and the only adult man in the family, Qiao Sen was responsible for handling all the matters after Qiao Yunfan’s death. He did not have time to stay here all the time. He still had to go with the butler to prepare the things needed for his grandfather’s funeral. After Qiao Sen left, only Ji Qing and Qiao Jiusheng were left in the house.

Ji Qing suddenly said, “It should be tonight.”

Qiao Jiusheng nodded. She could tell as well. The Old Master’s breathing was getting longer and heavier. It was a question if he could survive the first half of the night.

Ji Qing brought a soft chair and handed it to Qiao Jiusheng. “Sit down for a while. You’ll also fall ill if you keep standing.”

“Thank you, Sister-in-law.”

Qiao Jiusheng sat down in the chair. Ji Qing pressed the bell and said to the helper downstairs, “Please send a cup of coffee and a cup of honey pomelo water.” She added, “The honey pomelo water has to be heated.”

“Alright, Young Madam.”

Ji Qing brought a chair for herself.

When the helper brought the drinks, Ji Qing picked up the coffee and drank it. She saw Qiao Jiusheng lowering her head to drink the pomelo water and could not help but say, “Ah Yin…” She glanced at Qiao Jiusheng and saw that she was not resistant to discussing this topic. So, Ji Qing continued,” Actually, I had realized long ago that something was wrong with Ah Yin. ”

Qiao Jiusheng looked up at her and frowned, her expression filled with doubts.

Ji Qing explained, “When we went to Binjiang City and drank tea, Ah Yin subconsciously chose a cup of chrysanthemum tea, but she ignored the pomelo water right in front of her. At that time, I felt it was strange but didn’t think too much about it. Later on, when Grandpa called you Xiao Sheng, I saw that Ah Yin’s expression was strange, so I dared to think deeper.

“Your big brother is a rough man. All these years, not only has he been managing the jewelry company, but he has also had to divert his attention to take care of Grandpa and look after the two of you. To him, the two of you have grown up happily and are healthy. If you don’t take the wrong path, his mission will be completed. He’s a man, and he’s not as careful as the women. He didn’t recognize you. Don’t mind him…” Ji Qing was worried that Xiao Sheng would be dissatisfied with Qiao Sen.

The human heart was really unpredictable.

Ji Qing had thought that Qiao Jiuyin loved Fang Mu too much. When Qiao Jiuyin saw that Qiao Jiusheng was dead, she wanted to replace her identity and marry Fang Mu. However, Ji Qing did not expect that Qiao Jiuyin would be so ruthless to Qiao Jiusheng in order to get Fang Mu.

It was hard for anyone to kill their own sister.

Ji Qing was a psychologist and had always known that human psychology was complicated. She had seen many people with twisted minds, but she did not expect that such a person would be her sister-in-law.

She thought that she had already seen through people’s hearts, but after what happened this time, she realized that she was still too inexperienced.

Worried that Qiao Jiusheng would be prejudiced against Qiao Sen, Ji Qing had no choice but to speak up for him.

Qiao Jiusheng was no longer the naive girl from the past. When she heard Ji Qing’s words, she knew what her sister-in-law was thinking.

Shaking her head, Qiao Jiusheng said, “I understand. Big Brother is also a person. He can’t understand everyone around him.” Qiao Jiusheng smiled at Ji Qing and continued, “It’s enough as long as he understands you and takes good care of you.”

Ji Qing raised her eyebrows but did not argue.

“Oh right, where’s your Yusheng?”

Qiao Jiusheng looked out of the door and said, “He has something to do. He’ll be here soon.”

After a while, Fang Yusheng arrived.

He looked at Qiao Yunfan, who was lying on the bed and on his last breath. Placing his hand on Qiao Jiusheng’s shoulder, the eldest young master of the Fang family made a suggestion. “Why don’t you sleep for a while? I’ll keep watch here. If the situation changes, I’ll wake you up.”

“No.” Qiao Jiusheng shook her head. She did not feel sleepy. Perhaps, she was worried about Qiao Yunfan’s condition and could not sleep. “Let’s stay here together.”

“Okay.”

Fang Yusheng pulled over a chair. The three people accompanied Qiao Yunfan and chatted occasionally.

“Do you know the gender of the children?”

“I don’t know yet.” Fang Yusheng looked at Qiao Jiusheng’s slightly protruding abdomen and said, “When we go back to Binjiang City this time, let’s get it checked.”

“Alright, after you know the gender, you can prepare things in advance.”

“Yeah.”

“What are you going to name the babies?”

Qiao Jiusheng said, “The girls are called Fang Meili and Fang Keai.”

Fang Yusheng raised his eyebrows. “That’s too casual. Their nicknames can be Beautiful and Cute.”

“It’s fine to be called beautiful and cute,” Qiao Jiusheng insisted.

Fang Yusheng helplessly looked at her. He did not argue and only asked, “What if it’s a boy?”

Qiao Jiusheng said, “You’re the one in charge of naming the boys.”

After thinking about it, Fang Yusheng said, “If it’s a boy, the older brother will be called Fang Zicheng and the younger brother will be Fang Zikai.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng could not help but tease Fang Yusheng. “Why isn’t the elder brother called Fang Youqian and the younger brother Fang Facai?”

Fang Yusheng was a person who loved money, so Qiao Jiusheng found it strange that his children’s names did not contain the word “money.”

Fang Yusheng’s face darkened. “Are you calling me stingy?”

Ever since he was scolded by the drunk Qi Bufan, Fang Yusheng had become especially sensitive to the words “stingy,” “loves money,” and “is stingy.”

Qiao Jiusheng stopped talking rationally.

If she continued, she would get a beating.

Ji Qing quietly listened from the side. She regretted it. She realized that she should not have asked this question. She had been asking for trouble. With a smile, she watched the two of them show off their love. She thought that when she had a child, she would also pull Qiao Sen around to show off his love.

Fang Yusheng saw Qiao Yunfan’s mouth suddenly open. He immediately said, “Grandfather’s condition is very bad.”

Ji Qing glanced at Qiao Yunfan and immediately called Qiao Sen.

Qiao Jiusheng held Qiao Yunfan’s hand and called him grandfather.

Qiao Yunfan opened his mouth wide and only took a few breaths. His eyes and mouth were wide open. His head leaned back a little, and his breathing suddenly stopped. Qiao Jiusheng panicked and anxiously called out “Grandpa” again, unable to hold back her tears.

Ji Qing was also wiping her eyes.

A few seconds later, the Old Master suddenly took a deep breath and recovered.

When they saw this, Qiao Jiusheng’s and Ji Qing’s hearts tightened, hoping that Qiao Sen would hurry over.

When he received the call, Qiao Sen was checking the paper money sent by the shopkeeper. He hung up the phone and ran upstairs. He saw Qiao Yunfan hanging on to his last breath, as if waiting for him.

Qiao Sen walked over and knelt on the ground. He held Qiao Yunfan’s hand and looked up at his face. “Grandpa, leave. Don’t hold on.” Qiao Sen held Qiao Yunfan’s hand tightly and said, “We’ve all grown up. You can leave without worry.”

Qiao Yunfan’s eyes remained motionless, and his breathing gradually became uniform and gentle.

In less than a minute, he stopped breathing.

Fang Yusheng reached out and put his finger under his nose for a moment. Retracting his hand, he then looked down at his wristwatch. He softly said, “Grandpa left at 11: 23 pm.”

The moment Qiao Yunfan passed away, the news of it spread.

That night, all the relatives of the Qiao family rushed back from all over the world.

The undertaker came to the Qiao family and, with Qiao Sen’s help, put on Qiao Yunfan’s graveclothes and put him in the coffin.

According to the funeral customs in Junyang City, Qiao Yunfan had to stay at home for three days after his death. Then, he would be transported to the funeral home for the cremation ceremony. The weather in August of the lunar calendar was very stuffy and hot. Qiao Yunfan was placed in an ice coffin for all his relatives and friends who came to pay their respects.

Junyang City was different from Binjiang City in many ways. When someone here passed away, all their relatives and friends had to kowtow to the deceased when they came to pay their respects. The deceased’s family had to kneel on both sides of the mourning hall when the guests kowtowed to show their gratitude.

Qiao Sen was the Qiao family’s eldest son. For the past three days, he had been kneeling beside the mourning hall. Fang Yusheng replaced the pregnant Qiao Jiusheng and knelt in the mourning hall.

On the third day, Fang Mu arrived.

When he arrived, almost all the guests had arrived. When they saw him, everyone had a strange expression on their face.

The second young mistress of the Qiao family married the second young master of the Fang family. At the same time, the second young master of the Fang family was also the ex-lover of the Qiao family’s eldest young mistress…

Fang Mu should have come to the funeral no matter what. However, everyone’s expression turned strange when they saw him. They subconsciously looked at Qiao Jiusheng, Fang Yusheng, and Fang Mu.

Ignoring everyone’s curious gaze, Fang Mu walked straight into the mourning hall, knelt in front of the ice coffin, and kowtowed.

Fang Yusheng returned the kowtow as the husband of Qiao Yunfan’s granddaughter.

When he kowtowed, Fang Yusheng felt light-hearted.

That was because he had the right to kneel here as Qiao Yunfan’s grandson-in-law, while Fang Mu had lost the right.

Fang Mu looked up and frowned at Fang Yusheng’s calm gaze. He seemed to see provocation and pride in Fang Yusheng’s calm gaze.

Stop being arrogant!

Fang Mu had already received news from Black today. Black had entered China. Fang Yusheng could only jump around for a few more days.

Fang Mu stood up and walked to Qiao Jiusheng. His heart ached when he saw Qiao Jiusheng’s red eyes.

“Xiao Sheng, my condolences.”

Qiao Jiusheng looked at him and nodded.

After nodding, she realized that Fang Yusheng was staring at her with a pair of sharp eyes. She quickly straightened her body and looked at the other guests, ignoring Fang Mu. Fang Mu felt melancholic. He turned around and glared at Fang Yusheng, his lips curling into a cold smile.

After lunch, Qiao Sen carried the old master’s portrait and the coffin car to the Qiao family. He dragged the old master’s corpse and cremated it.

That afternoon, Qiao Yunfan was buried.

That night, Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng stayed over at the Qiao family’s manor.
