“Xiao Sheng.” Qiao Jiuyin's voice suddenly rang behind Qiao Jiusheng.

Qiao Jiusheng turned around and acted as if she did not know whether to laugh or to cry. She said to Qiao Jiuyin, “You should call me Sister-in-law. If you call me Xiao Sheng, I'll get a feeling that you're calling me yourself. This feeling is very strange, okay!”

When Qiao Jiuyin saw 'Qi Yunsheng's' impeccable smile, she denied her previous guess.

Impossible, this person can't be Xiao Sheng!

If she were, she would've definitely panicked when I called her name.

“Alright, then I'll call you sister-in-law.” Qiao Jiuyin walked closer to her and smiled. “I heard from my Sister-in-law Ji Qing that you're only 24 years old. You're just half a year older than me.”

Qiao Jiusheng nodded and asked, “How have you been feeling recently? Do your children torture you anymore?”

Qiao Jiuyin touched her stomach and replied, “They're finally becoming obedient and have stopped torturing me. I can now eat something.”

“That's good.” Qiao Jiusheng touched her stomach as well, her face filled with antic.i.p.ation. “I really want to see them born soon. You and Second Brother are both good-looking and have good genes. The children you'll give birth to must also be very good-looking.”

The sincere smile on Qiao Jiusheng's face made Qiao Jiuyin even more certain that Qi Yunsheng was not Qiao Jiusheng.

“Thank you for your kind words.”

“Ah Sheng, we should go back,” Fang Yusheng suddenly shouted from afar.

Qiao Jiusheng said to Qiao Jiuyin, “I should go back. Rest more and recuperate well.”

“Yeah.”

Watching Qiao Jiusheng walk toward Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiuyin was not in a hurry to look away.

Qiao Jiusheng had just walked to Fang Yusheng's side when the man suddenly hugged her. He lowered his head and sniffed the corner of her mouth, saying, “You drank.”

“It was just a cup.”

Fang Yusheng let her lead him out. As they walked, he said, “Oh, that's a pity.”

“Huh?” What's there to pity?

“It's better to drink more.”

Qiao Jiusheng asked, “What's good about it?”

Fang Yusheng smoothly answered, “A good wine makes a mess.”

Qiao Jiusheng almost tripped over herself.

Qiao Jiuyin silently observed their interaction and thought: Qi Yunsheng is definitely not Xiao Sheng. Xiao Sheng loves Fang Mu so much that it's impossible for her to have such intimate interaction with anyone other than Fang Mu.

The moment Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng entered their house, they immediately separated themselves from the loving embrace they were in a moment ago.

“We had a good time working together tonight,” Qiao Jiusheng said to Fang Yusheng.

Fang Yusheng remained silent.

Hearing Qiao Jiusheng's sudden footsteps as she walked deeper into the house, Fang Yusheng suddenly asked in a loud voice, “Aren't you going to give it to me?”

Qiao Jiusheng turned around in surprise.

Fang Yusheng knew that she was watching him. He slowly walked toward her. Just as he was about to b.u.mp into Qiao Jiusheng, Qiao Jiusheng reached out and stopped him. “I'm right in front of you.”

Fang Yusheng stopped in his tracks and grabbed the hand in front of him.

Qiao Jiusheng wanted to pull her hand out, but Fang Yusheng held it very tightly. She continued to pull with all her might but failed in the end. She was about to accuse Fang Yusheng of taking advantage of her, but Fang Yusheng asked, “Ah Sheng, give me the dragon.”

Qiao Jiusheng suddenly widened her eyes.

Shock appeared in those eyes.

“Do you know what it means to give you the dragon?”

Of course, Fang Yusheng knew that giving him the dragon meant she was giving herself to him.

He said, “We're husband and wife now. If you don't give it to me, it will arouse suspicion.”

Qiao Jiusheng heaved a sigh of relief.

To be honest, her heart had started beating faster when she had heard Fang Yusheng's question.

“That's true,” Qiao Jiusheng said. “Let go.”

Fang Yusheng immediately let go of her hand.

Qiao Jiusheng took out the pendant and cut it into two. She handed the piece that had been cut into a dragon to Fang Yusheng while she kept the piece of the phoenix.

Fang Yusheng tightly held the pendant.

He hoped that he could keep Qiao Jiusheng's life the way he was holding this pendant.

Fang Yusheng got a sudden, selfish urge to hide her and dote on her for the rest of his life so that no one else would covet her, such as Fang Mu and Wei Xin.
