The muscles on his face kept twitching due to the fury in his heart. Fang Mu tried to endure it, but he could not take it anymore.

  Without caring that the elevator had reached the top floor, the door had opened, and the guests outside could see everything happening in the elevator, Fang Mu shouted, “Fang Yusheng, I’m going to kill you!” Then, he raised his fists and punched him in the face.

  Fang Yusheng stopped letting Fang Mu hit him.

  He was not a punching bag.

  Fang Yusheng started to counterattack. Even though he had been beaten up many times, even though his right hand had once again been injured by Fang Mu, even though the wound from the gunshot had been torn open and was burning with pain, Fang Yusheng still fought with Fang Mu.

  This battle was fifteen years late.

  The last time they fought was because of those eyes.

  This time, it was because of a woman.

  The two of them fought crazily in the elevator. They attacked without any rhyme or reason, completely based on their hearts. You punch me; I kick you. Their clothes were disheveled, their cheeks swollen and red. Fang Yusheng’s nose collapsed from Fang Mu’s punch, and Fang Yusheng knocked out three of Fang Mu’s teeth.

  Blood splashed into the elevator, and the elevator shaft shook.

  All the guests stood in the hall and tiptoed to look at this scene. The atmosphere was very quiet, perfectly silent. No one dared to make a sound.

  In the huge venue, they could hear the two brothers cursing and fighting.

  Fang Mu shouted at Fang Yusheng.

  “I’ve wanted to kill you for a long time! If I don’t kill you today, my name won’t be Fang Mu.”


  Fang Yusheng didn’t forget to retort.

  “You bastard. You’ve done so many evil things in your life. You deserve your family breaking up!”


  Fang Mu cursed him again.

  “Fuck you!”


  Fang Yusheng replied—


  “Fucking hell!”


  Everyone: “…”


  Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more unreasonable, Fang Ping picked up an old man’s cane and walked over to hit the brothers on their waists. “Shut up, both of you. Why don’t you take a look at the situation!”


  Fang Ping hit them with the stick a few times. The two of them were stunned for a moment, then regained their senses.

  They quickly separated and stood up while holding onto the elevator wall.

  After straightening their deformed clothes, the two of them greeted Fang Ping as Little Uncle with bruises all over their faces. They then stopped talking.

  Fang Ping looked at Fang Mu with a sullen expression and then at Fang Yusheng.

  “Fang Mu, you have been acting as the vice-president for the past few years in vain. You want to take over the Fang Corporation with your stupid actions? Stop being the CEO of the Fang Corporation. Just change to a pig company, the pig with a long nose, big ears, and long tail!”


  Fang Mu’s expression was ugly, but he did not refute Fang Ping.

  After scolding Fang Mu, Fang Ping started to scold Fang Yusheng. This time, his expression was even uglier.

  “You too. You just got married in your thirties. You’re a young man at your advanced age. You don’t have anything to do and spend all your time in your shabby building like a lady. It wasn’t easy for you to get a wife, yet you still fought at your wedding. If you’re so capable, why don’t you go to heaven?”


  Fang Ping was disappointed in Fang Yusheng.

  Fang Yusheng was Lisa’s son, but this son was embarrassing Lisa too much.

  Fang Yusheng, who had been accused of being an older youth, did not dare to breathe too loudly.

  Fang Ping’s anger did not subside when he saw his two nephews shrink their heads and become grandsons. He held his cane in front of Fang Mu’s and Fang Yusheng’s heads and compared them. In the end, he mockingly said, “Fang Pingjue really did many bad things when he was young. That’s why God sent you two idiots to kill him!”


  Fang Yusheng and Fang Mu remained silent. They looked like they could be scolded or beaten up at will.

  Fang Ping wanted to say more things. However, Xu Pingfei was afraid that she would lose face the more he said, so she quickly gave Liu Yu a stern look. Liu Yu received Xu Pingfei’s hint and quickly walked forward to snatch the cane in Fang Ping’s hand. As she returned the cane to the old man, she evenly said, “Alright, cut it out. Both of them are injured. It’s more important for them to quickly go to the hospital for treatment.”


  Fang Ping snorted and gave up.

  Fang Mu and Fang Yusheng walked out of the elevator at the same time. The two of them took different elevators and went to the hospital.

  When Qiao Jiusheng woke up in the middle of the night and did not see Fang Yusheng, she got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom. She asked Aunt Jin, who was lying on the sofa, “Aunt Jin, where’s Yusheng?”


  Aunt Jin’s eyes flashed, and Qiao Jiusheng noticed them.

  Her face darkened. Her voice lowered, showing signs of anger. “Where did he go?”


  Seeing that she could not hide it anymore, Aunt Jin explained, “Young Master Yusheng and Second Young Master fought in the elevator. Young Master Yusheng’s nose bridge was broken by Second Young Master, and he knocked a few of Second Young Master’s teeth. Now, both of them are in the hospital.”


  Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.

  Qiao Jiusheng ran to the hospital overnight and saw Fang Yusheng sitting on the bed with a bandage on his hand and a white bandage on his nose.

  Upon seeing Fang Yusheng’s misery, she narrowed her eyes.

  Leaning against the door frame, she sneered at the person inside the room. “You’re so capable! Instead of accompanying me on our wedding night, you came here.” Qiao Jiusheng snorted. “I might be the most pitiful bride who has ever seen a wedding night in the world.”


  Fang Yusheng could not accompany Qiao Jiusheng on their wedding night, so he was already feeling guilty. He had lowered his head and was thinking about how to compensate her the next day when he heard her voice.

  Fang Yusheng suddenly looked up at Qiao Jiusheng. When he saw the mocking smile on her face, he felt even more guilty.

  “Ah Sheng…” Fang Yusheng’s voice was low and muffled, sounding especially pitiful.

  Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips and quickly walked over to him. Her left index finger hooked Fang Yusheng’s chin and made him look up so that she could carefully size him up.

  Fang Yusheng was still the same Fang Yusheng, but his face was disfigured. There was a bruise beside his eye sockets and a gash at the corner of his mouth. His nose was wrapped in white gauze, and he looked extremely pitiful.

  “Does it hurt?” Qiao Jiusheng was worried about him.

  Fang Yusheng whimpered and did not dare to say that it hurt.

  Qiao Jiusheng retracted her fingers and said, “I heard that your nose bridge was broken and crooked. You’re considered to have done plastic surgery already.”


  Fang Yusheng snorted. “I’m still handsome.”


  Qiao Jiusheng remained silent.

  She only wanted to kill him.

  There was no one else in the ward. Qiao Jiusheng lay down beside Fang Yusheng, and Fang Yusheng quickly lay down as well. He wanted to hug her, but Qiao Jiusheng slapped his hand away. Fang Yusheng did not dare to hug her anymore and just leaned against her, deliberately letting out a muffled groan of pain.

  Qiao Jiusheng felt terrible hearing this, so she asked him, “Is it very painful?”


  “Yes.” It was indeed very painful. He had not felt it when Fang Mu had hit him, but when he reached the hospital and calmed down, Fang Yusheng had realized how painful it was.

  Qiao Jiusheng scolded him for deserving it, but she still reached out and held Fang Yusheng’s hand.

  Sighing, Qiao Jiusheng asked him, “Tell me what happened.”


  “We met in the elevator. He was looking for trouble with my eyes. I told him that since I met my Ah Sheng, I became lucky. Just like that, he hit me,” Fang Yusheng succinctly said. He left out the portion that he was the one who provoked Fang Mu and compared him to the kind-hearted God.

  However, Qiao Jiusheng exposed his lie. “It can’t be just that. You must have said something else to agitate Fang Mu, right?”


  Fang Yusheng fell silent.

  “Alright, I just said something. Thank God for sending such a good Ah Sheng to my side. When Fang Mu heard this, he flew into a rage out of humiliation and started fighting with me.” Fang Yusheng thought of something and tapped his finger on Qiao Jiusheng’s palm. He aggrievedly said, “He even scolded my mother.”


  “But I heard that you called him a son of a whore too.”


  Fang Yusheng: “…”


  “He said fuck your mother, but you also said that his mother has been fucked by ten thousand people.”


  On the way here, Aunt Jin had told Qiao Jiusheng almost everything that had happened. Qiao Jiusheng just did not know the cause of the matter.

  Fang Yusheng guessed that Aunt Jin must have told Qiao Jiusheng everything.

  He could not help but ask, “Isn’t Fang Mu a son of a whore?”


  To comfort Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiusheng hurriedly nodded. “Yes, he was given birth by a whore.”


  “Hmph.”


  Fang Yusheng sneered. “He’s lucky to only have three of his teeth knocked out.”


  Qiao Jiusheng felt a headache. Fang Yusheng had always been tolerant. Qiao Jiusheng really had not expected him to fight with Fang Mu.

  “Fang Mu knows that you are Qiao Jiusheng,” Fang Yusheng suddenly said.

  Qiao Jiusheng nodded; she was not surprised. When she had heard Fang Mu sing at the wedding venue, she had guessed that Fang Mu had probably discovered it.

  “He still has feelings for you.” Fang Yusheng’s eyes shot up with killing intent. At the thought of a man coveting his wife at all times, Fang Yusheng became unhappy. “Ah Sheng, you have to remember that you’re my wife and the mother of my children.”


  Fang Yusheng stared at Qiao Jiusheng and continued, “Don’t forget, I gave you your life.”


  Qiao Jiusheng had heard this sentence from Fang Yusheng many times.

  Every time he said this, there was a different meaning.

  Only this time, Qiao Jiusheng could hear nervousness and concern in his tone.

  “Fang Yusheng, you don’t trust me, right?” Qiao Jiusheng’s tone was calm, but when Fang Yusheng heard her question, he panicked.

  “Ah Sheng,” Fang Yusheng quickly explained. “It’s not that I don’t trust you, but…”


  He suddenly shut his mouth.

  There was less confidence and arrogance in his eyes as he looked at Qiao Jiusheng. Instead, uneasiness and regret appeared in them. “You have six years of history with him after all.” Fang Yusheng’s tone hid deep unwillingness and helplessness.

  Those six years were a thorn in Fang Yusheng’s heart.

  She clearly belonged to herself, but Fang Mu took advantage of her.

  This was the first time Qiao Jiusheng had seen Fang Yusheng so dejected.

  She felt terrible.

  She turned around and kissed Fang Yusheng’s cheek. Qiao Jiusheng then tapped his nose with her finger. Fang Yusheng gasped in pain, but he heard Qiao Jiusheng say, “Fang Yusheng, I don’t like him anymore.”


  Fang Yusheng’s eyes lit up, and he asked her, “Then do you like me?”


  Qiao Jiusheng did not say anything.

  Fang Yusheng refused to be discouraged and continued to ask, “Hurry up and say that you like me.” His eyes darkened. “If you don’t say it, I’ll…” He had no choice.

  “I do.”


  Qiao Jiusheng said softly.

  Fang Yusheng was stunned.

  When he realized what Qiao Jiusheng had said, his body became light as a feather as if he were floating on a cloud.

  “Really?” Fang Yusheng happily smiled. He carefully savored those words and secretly pressed the rose-red gem on the ring. He said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Say it again. I like it.”


  Qiao Jiusheng replied, “I do.”


  Fang Yusheng corrected her. “You have to include my name.”


  Qiao Jiusheng felt that Fang Yusheng was mentally challenged.

  “Qiao Jiusheng likes Fang Yusheng,” she repeated.

  Fang Yusheng was satisfied.

  After a while, Qiao Jiusheng suddenly said, “Fang Yusheng, shake your head.”


  Fang Yusheng did as he was told.

  Qiao Jiusheng stared at him for a long time, looking puzzled.

  “What’s wrong?” Fang Yusheng was confused, not understanding why she wanted him to shake his head.

  Qiao Jiusheng waved her hand and said, “I just want to hear if there’s any sound of water when you shake your head.” She felt that Fang Yusheng was a little silly tonight. His head was filled with water, making him look like a mentally challenged person.

  Fang Yusheng’s face darkened. He had received a critical hit.

  The next morning, Qiao Jiusheng woke up early and went to buy breakfast for Fang Yusheng.

  She carried a few food boxes back to the hospital. Just as she walked out of the elevator, she bumped into Fang Mu at the entrance of the hospital. Fang Mu stood by the flower bed in his black shirt. He was long and had long legs. If the bruises on his face were ignored, he looked handsome.

  Qiao Jiusheng saw him the moment she got out of the taxi.

  She lowered her head, pretending to have not seen him. She even walked around the flower bed and took another path into the hospitalization department.

  However, Fang Mu saw her, and his eyes darkened. He quickly chased after her.

  Qiao Jiusheng subconsciously quickened her pace.

  Fang Mu closely followed her.

  In the end, Fang Mu stopped Qiao Jiusheng at the entrance of the hospitalization department.

  Qiao Jiusheng could only stop in her tracks and look up at the injured and sad Fang Mu.

  As she faced Fang Mu again, Qiao Jiusheng’s mood was complicated.

  She forced a faint smile. It was neither cold nor hot, but it was very beautiful. Qiao Jiusheng said, “Second Broth—”


  Qiao Jiusheng had just opened her mouth to call out “Second Brother” when Fang Mu interrupted her. “Weren’t you dead?” Fang Mu’s voice was low and hoarse as if he was suffering from a serious cold. It made her feel terrible.

  Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips.
