Reincarnation: I Married My Ex’s Brother

Chapter 47: Tall and Daring

Qiao Jiusheng struggled to free her arm, but Fang Yusheng remained indifferent.

“Let go of my hand,” she said as she rolled her eyes.

“Oh, I forgot! Sorry!” Fang Yusheng insincerely apologized, then let go of Qiao Jiusheng’s hand.

Qiao Jiusheng retracted her hand and put down the bowl. She then quickly shook her hand.

Fang Yusheng’s warmth was still on the back of her hand, but this warmth was scorching hot.

She quickly moved away from Fang Yusheng and sat in her seat to heartily eat. Fang Yusheng wiped the grease off his mouth. He looked to be in no hurry to leave the table; he just quietly sat opposite Qiao Jiusheng. He could not see her eating, yet he maintained a happy smile.

Qi Bufan’s eyes darted between the couple. He then looked down at his bowl and silently increased the speed of his meal.

He had to quickly leave after dinner. He could not delay these two people’s ‘tender feelings.’

Qiao Jiusheng had a terrible meal. She did not know why Fang Yusheng had gone crazy, but he kept facing her and slyly smiling. After dinner, Qiao Jiusheng stood up and said, “I’m going out to shop in the afternoon.” Then, she ran upstairs, changed into her traveling clothes, and rushed downstairs with her bag.

After telling Fang Yusheng that she would see him later tonight, Qiao Jiusheng ran out of the door.

Fang Yusheng, who was standing by the corridor, suddenly said to her, “Ah Sheng, wait!”

Qiao Jiusheng helplessly stopped in her tracks.

She stood at the entrance and turned to look at Fang Yusheng. She curiously asked him, “What do you want?”

Fang Yusheng slowly walked toward her and stretched out his hands to explore the void. Qiao Jiusheng could not stand it anymore. She took a few steps forward to hold his wrist. “I’m here.”

Fang Yusheng smiled and humbly asked, “Can you bring me along?”

Qiao Jiusheng blinked, not understanding what he meant.

“What did you say?” Since she was too surprised, she spoke in Northeast Chinese.

Fang Yusheng’s smile deepened. He patiently repeated it. “I said: can you take me shopping today?”

Qiao Jiusheng finally confirmed that she had not heard wrongly.

She wanted to reject him.

Actually, the two of them were husband and wife only in name. They had no feelings for each other at all. So what is it about us shopping together? Besides, Fang Yusheng can’t see, so what is the point of him shopping?

Qiao Jiusheng’s mind was in a mess. Fang Yusheng, who was in front of her, suddenly said, “I haven’t shopped in so many years. I almost can’t remember the bustling feeling when shopping.”

Fang Yusheng’s tone was light, but there was a hint of sadness in his words.

Qiao Jiusheng’s heart softened and she agreed with him. “Then quickly go and change.”

Immediately after giving that reply, Qiao Jiusheng regretted it.

However, Fang Yusheng was nodding happily. He even said, “I’ll go change. I can’t see, so help me match the dress.” He was so excited, and Qiao Jiusheng could not bear to spoil his mood.

“Fine.”

The two of them went upstairs together. For the first time, Qiao Jiusheng was allowed into Fang Yusheng’s cloakroom.

The moment she entered the room, plain cotton shirts filled her vision.

Qiao Jiusheng casually took off those clothes with eyes full of disdain.

She did not like these clothes.

After many troubles, she managed to find two bright-colored suits on the innermost rack. When she did, her eyes lit up. She peeled the clothes off the rack and threw them to Fang Yusheng, who was standing by the door. “Wear this!”

Fang Yusheng caught the shirt and slowly touched it with his fingers. Finally, he asked, “What color is it?”

Qiao Jiusheng spouted nonsense. “White.”

“Where about the pants?”

“It’s a gray one.”

“Sure.”

Fang Yusheng stood at the same spot and took off his clothes. When Qiao Jiusheng saw this, she quickly said, “Wait, I’ll go out first!”

Fang Yusheng paused and stood aside. When he heard Qiao Jiusheng leave the cloakroom, he slowly put on the clothes she had chosen for him.

After changing their clothes, the two of them went downstairs together.

Qi Bufan was sitting on a stone stool in the courtyard, holding his car keys as he waited for Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng. Hearing footsteps, he turned around. However, the sight left him stunned. He had never seen Fang Yusheng in a red shirt.

Fang Yusheng looked really good and bold. He was dressed in a red shirt, green pants, and a yellow belt…

Mr. Fang really dared to wear it.

Upon seeing Qi Bufan’s shocked gaze, Qiao Jiusheng smiled with her teeth bared. But, she did not make a sound.

Fang Yusheng did not sense anything amiss.

Ten years ago, he had been in a difficult position, where a young lady had saved him. The young lady had been carrying a pile of clothes, and she said to the seriously injured Fang Yusheng, “I bought these clothes from a stall by the roadside. Although they are a little ugly, they are cheap. I only have 100 yuan left… You can wear them as you wish. Don’t worry, you look very good. You won’t look ugly wearing them.”

So, he had worn it.

He could not see, so he had not known what the little girl meant by ‘a little ugly.’ Later on, when he returned home, he did not throw away those clothes. Instead, he got someone to wash them and hang them up. Fang Yusheng naturally did not know that after ten years, he had put on the flowery clothes from back then.

The clothes were very loose, and Fang Yusheng felt comfortable wearing them. It could be seen that the street stalls and the luxury goods felt similar when he was wearing them.

The corners of Qi Bufan’s mouth twitched. He ignored Qiao Jiusheng’s gaze and reminded Fang Yusheng, “Mr. Fang, are you sure you want to shop like this?”

Fang Yusheng was about to ask what was wrong with this outfit when Qiao Jiusheng’s mischievous words suddenly rang in his ears. “You look great wearing this.”

Fang Yusheng’s heart skipped a beat. He turned sideways and lowered his head to ask Qiao Jiusheng, “Do I really look good?”

“Yeah.”

After getting an affirmative answer, Fang Yusheng felt like he had taken a calming pill. Confidence instantly surged inside his heart, and he felt like he were floating.

He said to Qi Bufan, “That’s it. As long as the clothes are comfortable.”

With that, Fang Yusheng stretched out his hand to Qiao Jiusheng. “Take me into the car.”

“Okay.”

Holding Fang Yusheng’s hand, Qiao Jiusheng got into the car. When she closed the door, she even stuck her tongue out at Qi Bufan.

Qi Bufan covered his eyes, unwilling to look at Fang Yusheng’s outfit.

Binjiang City was the capital of China, so there was no need to say anything about its prosperity.

Ten Miles Fragrance was Binjiang City’s business district. A car drove into the basement of a mall, and the three of them took the elevator into the mall. Qiao Jiusheng did not have money, so she could only open her eyes to look at the new clothes on the shelves along the way. She was embarrassed to ask Fang Yusheng to buy them for her, so she did not say anything along the way.

Today, Fang Yusheng seemed very easy to talk to. He noticed that Qiao Jiusheng was walking slowly. Therefore, he suddenly stopped and turned to her. “Let’s go in and take a look.”

Qiao Jiusheng quickly said, “No, no.”

Fang Yusheng said, “You’re right. We’re husband and wife, so we should share our assets. Just buy whatever you want.”

Qiao Jiusheng was a little tempted.

She glanced at Fang Yusheng’s side profile and swallowed her saliva. Then, she carefully asked, “Really, I can buy it directly?”

“Yes.” Young Master Fang was quite generous today.

Fang Yusheng had already said so, so why was Qiao Jiusheng still being polite to him?

“Let’s go buy some clothes!”

With a wave of her hand, Qiao Jiusheng led Fang Yusheng into the clothing shop. She looked rather heroic.

Although Fang Yusheng could not see, he felt good hearing her tone.

He remained patient as he sat on the sofa while Qiao Jiusheng picked new autumn clothes. After shopping for an hour, Qiao Jiusheng finally felt embarrassed. “Um, Brother Bufan, what brand of clothes do men usually buy?”

Fang Yusheng suddenly smiled.

My wife knows how to buy clothes for me. She must have me in her heart.
