Fang Mu had received a hit.

  The cup hit his chin and instantly hit the ground. It did not shatter and rolled a few times on the ground.

  The boiling water splashed on his neck, and his skin quickly turned red.

  Yet, Fang Mu did not even grunt; he just frowned.

  Fang Pingjue raised his eyebrows. When he saw that Fang Mu’s skin had been scalded, he recalled that the tea in his cup was not that hot. Fang Pingjue subconsciously looked at his right hand and realized that his teacup was still there, but Fang Yusheng’s teacup was missing.

  Only then did he realize that he had grabbed the wrong teacup.

  Fang Pingjue was a little puzzled.?

  Fang Pingjue confusedly looked at Fang Yusheng.

  At this moment, Fang Yusheng suddenly stretched out his left hand and looked around like a blind person.

  When Qiao Jiusheng saw his actions, she immediately tilted her head and softly asked him, “What are you looking for?”


  Fang Yusheng replied in a soft voice, “My teacup!”


  Qiao Jiusheng endured the pain from holding in her laughter; she had to pretend to be in a difficult position. The situation was special, so she could not speak clearly. She suppressed her voice and said, “Your teacup… Dad threw it.”


  Fang Yusheng instantly understood and stopped talking. He even revealed a vexed expression.

  The two of them whispered. Even though their voices were very soft, Fang Pingjue still heard them.

  He dispelled his doubts.

  He thought that perhaps it was a coincidence.

  Xu Pingfei went to get a cold towel soaked in ice water and handed it to Fang Mu. In a cold tone, she said to him, “Wipe it off so that you don’t get burned.” Xu Pingfei still did not know what Qiao Jiuyin had done. She only knew that Fang Mu and Qiao Jiuyin had divorced for no reason. In her heart, she felt that Fang Mu had let Qiao Jiuyin down.

  Like his father, they were all unfaithful.

  Fang Mu took the towel and casually covered it under his neck before walking toward Fang Pingjue.

  “Dad, were you looking for me?” Fang Mu’s voice was as cold as usual. It did not fluctuate and was so calm that it did not seem human.

  Fang Pingjue originally wanted to scold Fang Mu a few more times, but he cowered under Fang Mu’s cold gaze.

  It was rare for a father to be afraid of a son.

  After a low cough, Fang Pingjue cleared his throat and scolded Fang Mu in a low voice, “Fang Mu, do you know what you did wrong?”


  Fang Mu remained silent.

  Fang Pingjue continued, “I don’t care what you want to do, but you can’t be enemies with the Qiao family. I’ll give you three days to personally go to Junyang City and fetch back my daughter-in-law!”


  When Fang Pingjue saw Fang Mu frown, he got angry. He snorted and threatened Fang Mu. “If you can’t do this well, then you can forget about taking the position of Vice-President.”


  Fang Mu’s gaze remained unchanged, but a hint of disdain flashed past his eyes.

  “Dad, you shouldn’t think about this.”


  Fang Pingjue’s eyebrows jumped. “What do you mean?” He thought that although he was not a good man, he was not as ruthless as Fang Mu. It was because of Fang Mu’s lover that Qiao Jiuyin, his wife, went into premature labor and almost died on the operating table. She even lost her son in the process. For Fang Mu to still divorce heartlessly divorce her, he was eally cold-blooded.

  Fang Pingjue boasted that he was a ruthless person, but compared to his son, he was still lacking.

  Fang Mu was not afraid of Fang Pingjue’s angry gaze at all. Calmly walking to the sofa opposite his father, Fang Mu sat down. He picked up the cold towel and folded it before sticking it to his skin. Only then did he say, “I think my choice has been made very clear. My marriage to Qiao Jiu… Qiao Jiusheng has ended. There is no possibility of us reconciling.”


  Before Fang Pingjue could get angry again, Fang Mu continued, “As for the reason for my divorce, it’s inconvenient to tell you. However, rest assured. The Qiao family will not have any complaints about our divorce. Not only will they not cut off all contact with us in business, but on the contrary, our cooperation will only get closer.

  “Brother Qiao personally agreed to it.”


  Qiao Sen felt that the Qiao family had let down the Fang family. If he were to cut off all ties with the Fang family, he would not even be able to face them.

  Fang Pingjue was not stupid. From what Fang Mu said, he guessed that there was more to Fang Mu’s divorce.

  Fang Pingjue’s emotions gradually calmed down. Xu Pingfei was not a busybody, so she did not say anything more about Fang Mu.

  At this moment, Fang Yusheng refused to be quiet.

  He twirled the jade bead on his wrist and said without rhyme or reason, “It seems like Second Brother did not take a good look at the wedding gift your big brother gave you.”


  Everyone’s expression turned strange.

  Qiao Jiusheng felt terrible holding in her laughter.

  Fang Mu’s eyes turned cold as he darkly stared at Fang Yusheng. Enduring his anger, he asked in a low voice, “Big Brother, what do you mean?”


  “Marriage is tough, and it’s common for couples to quarrel. How can it be easy to manage a good marriage? Big Brother reminded you that you’re a man. If you get into trouble with the Qiao family’s Miss, you have to endure it. If you really can’t, show me the mentality I wrote for you. Don’t be rash and do something that betrays the marriage. Look at Ah Sheng and me. We’ve been married for a while. Even if she revolts on me, I have to dote on her.”


  Fang Yusheng regretfully sighed and continued, “You’re just disobedient and unwilling to listen to Big Brother. Now, it’s good. You’ve only been married for a short time, yet you’re already divorced. In the past, you were a famous golden bachelor in Binjiang City. Now, look at you, a divorced man with a child. It’ll be difficult to find a good match for you again.” Fang Yusheng’s face was filled with worry, and it looked like he was worried for his brother.

  …


  Qiao Jiusheng gave Fang Yusheng a thumbs up in her heart.

  Fang Mu’s eyebrows were like a storm. If not for the occasion and his status, Fang Mu would have fought with Fang Yusheng.

  Butler Wan Lang knew that Fang Yusheng was going to cause trouble today.

  Fang Mu tightly gripped the cold towel and endured it. He suppressed the impulse to beat Fang Yusheng to death with difficulty and calmly replied, “Then I’ll have to worry Big Brother.” He looked at Qiao Jiusheng, who was about to laugh, and pursed his lips. Sarcastically smiling, he said, “Big Brother, you should look after your wife. It’s nothing for Big Sister-In-Law to climb on top of you. I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to close the garden in spring…”


  Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.

  Fang Yusheng’s expression turned cold. “Don’t worry. If the ginkgo comes out a foot, I’ll chop it off a foot. Even if it leaves the wall, it’s not your turn to pick it.”


  Fang Mu: “…”


  Fang Pingjue suddenly coughed. “Shut up!”


  In the end, Fang Yusheng did not manage to eat any beans in the main building before Fang Pingjue chased him out of the door. Fang Mu got the same treatment.

  Fang Mu glanced at Fang Yusheng and wanted to mock him, but Fang Yusheng beat him to it. “Since ancient times, even a tiger will not eat its cubs. Second Brother’s family has a good mother.”


  Fang Mu could hear the sarcasm and understanding in Fang Yusheng’s words. His expression changed, and he turned around to leave.

  As he sat inside his car, Fang Mu suddenly punched the window.

  Fang Mu knew that all these years, Fang Yusheng’s rashness was just a disguise.

  Even if Fang Yusheng was blind, even if he did not leave the house, he could still see everything that happened around him.

  Fang Mu narrowed his eyes. His mind flashed back to when he was 14 years old, to the Fang Yusheng who had looked down on him with a zither and a bow, the arrogant Fang Yusheng.

  Back then, Fang Yusheng had been shot in the middle of an island. The Fang family had thought that he was accidentally injured by the civil war, but Fang Mu knew what was going on. He believed that Fang Yusheng had investigated that incident. Fang Mu had been the one who had hired the killer.

  When Fang Yusheng did not speak, he looked gentle and harmless. In fact, he was a black-bellied person. Fang Mu did not believe that Fang Yusheng would really stop.

  He would definitely take revenge.

  Fang Mu’s chest tightened. He could not afford to make a single mistake while dealing with Fang Yusheng.

  He had to stand at the highest position in the Fang family as soon as possible and crush Fang Yusheng’s wings, making him unable to turn over a new leaf for the rest of his life.

  Fang Mu turned his head to look at the main building and saw Fang Pingjue’s figure walking around the dining room.

  He stared at him for a long time.

  ***

  Qiao Jiusheng held Fang Yusheng’s hand and returned to the house. On the way, she did not speak.

  Fang Yusheng could sense that she was angry and felt puzzled.

  “Ah Sheng, what are you angry about?”


  Qiao Jiusheng looked back at him with dissatisfaction.

  She had seen a television drama called “Smiling Is Very Alluring.” In that drama, the male lead had once said something very touching. Some people said that the female lead would cheat on him, so the male lead said to the female lead, “At most, you get an inch out of the wall, I get an inch out of the wall. You get a foot out of the wall, and I get ten feet out of the wall.”


  Qiao Jiusheng felt terrible.

  “Fang Yusheng, why didn’t you say anything when Fang Mu was talking just now? Are you just going to move ten feet away from the wall because of an affair?” Qiao Jiusheng was a little jealous.

  Fang Yusheng was really not romantic.

  Qiao Jiusheng’s mood confused Fang Yusheng.

  He did not understand what she was angry about.

  “Ten feet away from the wall?” He looked very disdainful and disdainful. “If you had the time and energy, I could’ve cut down the entire peach blossom tree. You still want to move the wall? Are you stupid? Moving the wall costs money and time. You’re so free!” After he finished speaking, he saw Qiao Jiusheng shake her hand and angrily run back to the house.

  He stood on the side of the road, looking innocent.

  Fang Yusheng returned to the house with a confused expression. When he did not see Qiao Jiusheng, he felt inexplicably guilty. Although he did not know what he had done wrong, it was his fault that his wife was angry. Fang Yusheng touched his nose and ran upstairs to find Qiao Jiusheng on the top floor.

  Qiao Jiusheng crossed her arms and looked downstairs through the glass wall. She did not look back when she heard him go upstairs.

  Fang Yusheng hugged her from behind.

  Qiao Jiusheng even moved around. “Aren’t you going to cut me? Why are you still hugging me?” Her tone was fierce, but she was actually feeling wronged.

  Fang Yusheng quickly apologized. “It’s my fault, my fault. Move away from the wall.”


  “Hmph!” Qiao Jiusheng was still angry.

  Fang Yusheng had already thought about it. He thought of another meaning behind those words, and his eyes darkened. His tone became cold. “Are you planning to leave the wall?”


  It was Qiao Jiusheng’s turn to feel guilty.

  Neither of them spoke. On careful thought, both of them felt mentally challenged by this topic.

  Qiao Jiusheng was a little embarrassed. She was so old, yet she still cared about this.

  Fang Yusheng was much taller than Qiao Jiusheng. He raised his chin and placed it on the top of Qiao Jiusheng’s head. Lowering his eyes, he looked at Qiao Jiusheng’s face from top to bottom. He could see her long eyelashes trembling like two feather fans that swept across his heart.

  Scratching my heart and lungs.

  If he did not scratch them, he would panic. If he scratched them, his heart would itch.

  Fang Yusheng chuckled and pointed at the courtyard downstairs. He said to Qiao Jiusheng, “At most, we can plant the peach tree in the middle of the courtyard. It’s so wide in all directions. Can it get out of the wall?”


  Qiao Jiusheng stared at the courtyard downstairs and did not speak.

  Fang Yusheng picked up Qiao Jiusheng’s left hand, which was wrapped around his chest. He brought her hand behind him and pressed it against his chest, saying, “I’ll plant you here.” Qiao Jiusheng finally looked up at Fang Yusheng and saw the deep love and seriousness in his green eyes.

  “In my heart, you can forget about going anywhere,” Fang Yusheng said.

  Qiao Jiusheng blushed. “You’re shameless.”


  Fang Yusheng did not know how to be romantic, so his sweet words were quite seductive.

  “Old Skank.” Qiao Jiusheng retracted her hand.

  Fang Yusheng’s gaze darkened. “Am I very old?” He was six years older than her.?

  Qiao Jiusheng rolled her eyes. “The main thing is the last two words.”


  Fang Yusheng fell silent.

  Seeing that he had let go, Qiao Jiusheng walked out of his embrace and planned to go downstairs to eat.

  Suddenly, her hand was grabbed, and she swayed. She was pressed against the glass wall. Fang Yusheng leaned over and kissed her lips. He quickly lifted her skirt and took off her pants.

  Qiao Jiusheng opened her eyes in shock.

  The sun was still hanging high in the west, and the sky was still bright. Was this where he planned to do her?

  Qiao Jiusheng panicked.

  She was an old-timer with words but innocent in action.

  She could not take such a flirtatious move.

  Fang Yusheng immediately occupied her and bit her ear, forcing her to look at the sunset. He even said, “Didn’t you say that I’m a skank? I’ll show you.”


  He was flirtatious enough.

  She felt hot all over.
