Chapter 22
Qiao Jiusheng had never been so close to a man before. She got goosebumps all over her body.
Sensing the girl’s nervousness, Fang Yusheng frowned and said, “Relax.”
Qiao Jiusheng tried to relax, but it did not work.
Fang Yusheng applied the medicine to the whip marks and asked, “I’m curious about something.”
“Say it.”
“You and Qiao Jiuyin are twin sisters. You two look alike, but surely, there must be something differentiating you two?” Fang Yusheng had been thinking about this for a long time. No matter how similar the two of them were, their bodies couldn’t be entirely identical. Is Fang Mu blind or something? How could he not tell the two sisters apart?

Qiao Jiusheng’s body stiffened. When she saw that Fang Yusheng was waiting for an answer with his ears perked up, she replied in a low voice, “I haven’t done it with him.”
Fang Yusheng was stunned.
“He didn’t touch even once in six whole years?” Even though Qiao Jiusheng’s answer had been implicit, Fang Yusheng’s question was straightforward.
Qiao Jiusheng gritted her teeth and said, “I originally planned to wait until our wedding night.”
“Ha…” Fang Yusheng chuckled and said, “In the end, you helped your good sister.”
Qiao Jiusheng remained silent.
Talking to Fang Yusheng would only anger her to death.
Aunt Jin, who had been listening to the conversation the entire time, was shocked.
What the heck?
This girl and Fang Mu have dated for six years? Wasn’t Qiao Jiusheng Second Young Master’s girlfriend? What did Young Master Yusheng mean when he said that she helped her good sister?
If this girl is Qiao Jiusheng and the woman who married Second Young Master is Qiao Jiuyin, then who was the female corpse that the police found?

Aunt Jin realized that she had heard something big. Cold sweat appeared on her back.
Fang Yusheng felt a wound on Qiao Jiusheng’s leg, and it had already formed a scab. He guessed that the wound must have been from the accident. So he asked, “Are you going to remove that?”
Qiao Jiusheng shook her head.
After shaking her head, she remembered that this person could not see her. Thus, she said, “It’s too deep.”
“It’s good that you can’t,” Fang Yusheng murmured. “Take this as proof of your rebirth.”
Qiao Jiusheng was stunned.
Rising from the ashes…
Qiao Jiusheng had just put on her clothes when Qi Bufan walked out of the room.
“Mr. Fang, the room is ready.”
“Yes.”
Fang Yusheng stood up and said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Rest well. Come with me tomorrow.”
Without asking what he was going to do, Qiao Jiusheng dragged her injured body into the room.
She lay on the bed, bit the bedsheets, and took a deep breath.
Fang Yusheng’s two whip lashes had been too painful. Qiao Jiusheng admired herself for being able to withstand them.

This was the first time three people had breakfast on the dining table.
In the past, only Qi Bufan and Fang Yusheng had breakfast here. The three breakfasts were different. Qi Bufan’s breakfast had meat and vegetables. Fang Yusheng’s breakfast was filled with vegetables as usual. The other breakfast was more western.
A bacon omelet sandwich, two western pastries, and half a glass of milk.
Qiao Jiusheng had woken up in the morning and put on her clothes. When she opened the door, she saw a few clothing bags by the side. Upon opening the bag, she saw a light yellow dress with suspenders, a set of undergarments, and a pair of sandals. Qiao Jiusheng praised Fang Yusheng for his thoughtfulness and returned to her room to change into new clothes and shoes.
When she had arrived at the dining table, Qi Bufan had already finished his breakfast and was about to go boxing.
She glanced at the remaining two breakfasts.
They were one serving of vegetarian food and one serving of Western-style breakfast. To outsiders, Fang Yusheng was a person dedicated to Buddhism, so it was obvious which breakfast belonged to Qiao Jiusheng. Qiao Jiusheng sat down in her seat, thought about it, and decided to have breakfast together with Fang Yusheng.

Aunt Jin reminded Qiao Jiusheng to not wait for Fang Yusheng, but Qiao Jiusheng felt that it was inappropriate.
“Has Mr. Fang not woken up yet?”
“He is awake.”
Qiao Jiusheng looked upstairs and asked, “Then what is he doing?”
Aun Jin explained, “Every morning, Young Master Yusheng takes a bath to clean himself up.”

Qiao Jiusheng opened her mouth and scolded Fang Yusheng in her heart. However, a faint smile appeared on her face. Aunt Jin glanced at Qiu Jiusheng and thought that this lady was sensible and knew her manners. Little did she know that Qiao Jiusheng had already scolded Fang Yusheng to the core.
Ten minutes later, the annoying male demon finally came downstairs.

Qiao Jiusheng believed that she was someone who could withstand the test of beauty. Fang Mu had a well-trained figure, and she had been together with him for six years. Qiao Jiusheng had seen his good figure, but when she had seen it, she had only praised him for being good.
However, when she saw Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiusheng finally understood what beauty was.
Yes, beauty was misleading.
The description might not be appropriate for a man, but it was extremely appropriate for Fang Yusheng. He was actually wearing a suit today!
Fang Yusheng was dressed in a suit, just like a female soldier in a deep V shirt exposing the back. It was a novelty.

A thin black suit and black pants were wrapped around his body, pulling his slender body straight and upright. Under the jacket, he was only wearing a simple white shirt. He had not even tied his tie. The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, revealing half of his collarbone on both sides.

He looked extremely seductive!
Even though he was blind, Fang Yusheng could feel a certain woman’s intense gaze.
Pursing his lips, he said, “Don’t dare to openly peek at me just because I’m blind and can’t see.” Young Master Fang was naturally happy that someone admired his appearance. However, he felt that as a girl, Qiao Jiusheng should be reserved. She should look at him secretly. How could she stare at a man without blinking?

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng blushed.
She hurriedly averted her gaze, not daring to look at Fang Yusheng anymore.
Fang Yusheng sat down and said, “Please eat.” Then, he picked up his chopsticks and slowly ate his breakfast.
Qiao Jiusheng hurriedly lowered her head and began eating her breakfast as well.
Young Master Yusheng was wearing a suit. It was like the first time a bride had worn a bridal sedan. In her daze, Aunt Jin forgot to introduce the breakfast menu to Fang Yusheng. When she walked into the kitchen, she opened the kitchen window and looked at Qi Bufan, who was practicing boxing outside. Then, she asked, “What happened to Young Master Yusheng today?”
Qi Bufan’s punches were weak.
If he were being honest, he rarely saw Fang Yusheng in a suit.
“I don’t know,” Qi Bufan replied.
Aunt Jin shook her head. She thought it was strange but did not think too much about it.
Hearing the sound of Qiao Jiusheng putting down his chopsticks, Fang Yusheng also put down his chopsticks. Wiping his mouth, he stood up and said to her, “Did you wear the clothes I left at your door?”
Qiao Jiusheng replied, “I’ve put them on. The size is suitable. You’re very considerate.”
Fang Yusheng nodded and said, “Let’s go then.”
He did not say where he was going, and neither did Qiao Jiusheng ask.
Anyway, she was tied to Fang Yusheng. Even if she had to walk through a mountain of knives or over a sea of flames, she had to follow Fang Yusheng.
When they reached the door, Fang Yusheng suddenly turned toward the kitchen and shouted, “Aunt Jin, please find the cane I brought back from England.”
“Okay.”
After wiping her hands, Aunt Jin quickly went upstairs. She looked very blessed. As she walked, her feet were like the wind. She looked very energetic.
A moment later, she came down holding a black cane with a diamond-shaped sapphire embedded on its handle. “Young Master Yusheng, here.”
Fang Yusheng took the cane and tested it. He was rather satisfied.
Aunt Jin could not hold back her curiosity and boldly asked, “Young Master Yusheng, are you going to do something very important today?” If he weren’t, he would not be wearing such formal clothes.
Fang Yusheng nodded.
Aunt Jin asked again, “What are you going to do?”
Qiao Jiusheng looked at Fang Yusheng, feeling curious. Fang Yusheng pursed his lips and said, “Getting married.” After saying that, he knocked his cane on the ground and took the lead to walk toward the entrance of the courtyard.
