When Qiao Jiusheng said that she would treat Fang Yusheng to a movie, it was naturally true.
The postpartum rehabilitation center was only twenty minutes away from the cinema. Qiao Jiusheng was about to book a movie ticket online. She asked Fang Yusheng, âYusheng, which movie do you want to watch?â
Before Fang Yusheng could speak, Fang Zikai spoke from behind. âWatch anime!â
Recently, a good anime was being released.
Qiao Jiusheng turned around and said to Fang Zikai, âNo, Iâm treating your father to a movie tonight. The two of you are freeloaders and are not qualified to choose a movie.â Qiao Jiushengâs words were ruthless.
!!
When Fang Zikai heard her words, he felt indignant, but he did not dare to refute Qiao Jiusheng. He only dared to scold Qiao Jiusheng softly for being unfair.
Qiao Jiushengâs hearing was very sharp, so she naturally heard Fang Zikaiâs complaints. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she smiled sarcastically. She said to Fang Zikai, âYour father gave me money to spend, warmed my bed and acted as my chauffeurâ¦â
Qiao Jiusheng listed many benefits for Fang Yusheng in one go. She asked Fang Zikai, âYour daddy is much more useful than you. Shouldnât I treat him better?â
Fang Zikai was speechless.
âBut Iâm your sonâ¦â Shouldnât a mother dote on her child?
Qiao Jiusheng tilted her head and said in the same matter-of-fact tone as Fang Zikai, âBut heâs my husband. I have to dote on him first, and then you guys.â
Fang Zikai was speechless.
Fang Zicheng also glanced at his mother. The brothers were speechless by Qiao Jiushengâs theory. What she said made sense, and every word she said made sense. It was indeed very convincing.
When Fang Yusheng heard this, he finally could not help but laugh softly.
Qiao Jiusheng turned around and looked at Fang Yusheng sideways. She asked him, âWhat are you laughing at again?â
Fang Yusheng said, âItâs quite interesting.â Hearing the mother and son argue, Fang Yusheng felt that his days were especially blissful.
When the traffic light turned green, Qiao Jiusheng handed her phone to Fang Yusheng. âChoose a movie.â Fang Yusheng took the opportunity to take a few glances and finally chose a movie called âSpace and Time Strangeâ.
Fang Yusheng drove. Qiao Jiusheng skimmed through the introduction of the movie. After reading it, she praised Fang Yusheng. âYou chose well.â
Fang Yusheng smiled and said, âYou should like it.â
Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips and smiled, not denying it.
Fang Yusheng parked the car in front of a western restaurant.
âLetâs eat first.â
Qiao Jiusheng knew that the food in this western restaurant was not bad, so the price was naturally not cheap. Fang Yushengâs stinginess was a label that he could not remove in his life. To Qiao Jiusheng, it was unbelievable that he wanted to have dinner here.
When they got out of the car, Qiao Jiusheng was still teasing Fang Yusheng. âDid our Yusheng earn a lot of money? Heâs even willing to treat us to a feast.â Qiao Jiusheng exclaimed exaggeratedly. She asked her two sons, âQuick! Come and see if Momâs makeup is smudged. This is the first time Mom entered such an expensive restaurant. She canât be sloppy.â
Fang Zicheng looked down at the ground and ignored his crazy mother.
Fang Zikai looked at Qiao Jiusheng seriously before saying, âMom is the most beautiful in the world.â
Qiao Jiusheng could not stop smiling.
Fang Yusheng frowned at the side. He watched the entire process of Qiao Jiushengâs acting. When Qiao Jiusheng was done, he asked darkly, âHave you suffered following me?â
Wasnât it just a meal? Did he have to exaggerate?
Qiao Jiusheng sensed that Fang Yusheng was going to be angry and quickly said, âIâm playing with the children.â
Fang Yusheng sneered.
âLetâs go.â
After he finished speaking, he did not walk forward. Instead, he turned around and walked towards the street opposite. Qiao Jiusheng and the rest were stunned at the same time. Fang Zikai asked Fang Yusheng in confusion, âDad, where are we going?â
Fang Zicheng was also surprised.
Qiao Jiusheng held the two childrenâs hands and avoided the car to cross the road. She was also confused.
Why was Fang Yusheng walking towards the opposite street?
Fang Yusheng crossed the road and stood opposite the street to wait for them. When Qiao Jiusheng and the child crossed the road, Fang Yusheng said, âFollow me.â He brought the mother and sons along for a minute before stopping at the entrance of a restaurant called Dream Lisa Rice.
âWeâre here,â Fang Yusheng said.
Qiao Jiusheng and the two children looked up at the same time and stared at the restaurant with expressions as if they had eaten a pile of shit.
This restaurant actually looked good, but compared to the western restaurant opposite, it was like a slum girl and Snow White.
âHere?â Qiao Jiusheng questioned.
Fang Yusheng sneered and said, âIâm stingy. If I canât afford a big meal for you, Iâll eat rice. Itâs 45 yuan per person. Itâs economical and tastes good.â With that, he walked towards the entrance of the restaurant.
Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Zicheng followed behind Fang Yusheng with stunned expressions. No one could understand what they were thinking.
Qiao Jiusheng lowered her head and walked. Suddenly, her head bumped into Fang Yushengâs back.
Qiao Jiusheng looked up and realized that Fang Yusheng had stopped in his tracks. âWhatâs wrong? Arenât you going in?â
Qiao Jiusheng started to wonder again.
Speaking of Fang Yusheng, the person standing at the door and not going in was still Fang Yusheng. What was Fang Yusheng thinking?
Qiao Jiusheng was about to walk to the front to question him when the man in front of her spoke. His magnetic and pleasant voice entered Qiao Jiushengâs ears and stunned her. He said, âAlthough Iâm very stingy, Iâve never been stingy with you.â
Qiao Jiusheng looked up at the tall figure in front of her in shock.
He lowered his head and did not speak anymore, but Qiao Jiusheng could sense the hurt from his silent back. Realizing that her words might have really pierced this manâs heart, Qiao Jiusheng wanted to explain.
She said, âYusheng, I donât really despiseâ¦â
âAh Sheng.â Fang Yusheng turned around, his eyes deep. The world was so big, but there was only one person in his eyes.
Qiao Jiushengâs breathing stopped.
She stared into Fang Yushengâs green eyes and nodded softly.
Fang Yusheng said, âStingy is the only flaw in my personality, right? I canât change that.â He clearly didnât lack money and had lived a rich life since he was young, but he loved money. This was the same logic as Qiao Jiushengâs love for beauty.
Qiao Jiusheng quickly said, âI really donât despise you. Really, believe me.â
Fang Yusheng naturally believed her.
However, Fang Yusheng would sometimes be a little angry when he heard her teasing him like this. He had also thought of changing himself, but unfortunately, he could not. Fang Yusheng said in a muffled voice, âWhat I have, as long as you want it, as long as you ask, I will give it to you. Even if itâs my life.â
Upon hearing the last sentence, Qiao Jiusheng felt even more bitter.
Iâm willing to give you my life.
If it were any other man who said this, Qiao Jiusheng would have thought that it was a manâs sweet nothings. However, Fang Yusheng was the one who said it. What he said was true because he had really done it.
