Chapter 59: Loving What You Love, Hating What You Hate (3)

Qiao Jiusheng was stunned. She subconsciously looked at Qiao Jiuyin.

Qiao Jiuyin frowned and met her gaze without saying anything.

Qiao Jiusheng looked at Qiao Sen again.

Qiao Sen sighed and apologetically smiled at her. He said in a pleading tone, “Sister Yunsheng, Brother Yusheng, I’ve troubled you.”

Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng obediently walked toward Qiao Yunfan.

Qiao Yunfan stared at Fang Yusheng for a long time. He then narrowed his old eyes and said, “Young man, you’re quite handsome.”

Fang Yusheng obediently replied, “Thank you for the praise, Old Master.”

Qiao Yunfan started to ask about his family background. “Hey, what’s the young man’s surname? How old is he this year? Where does he live? What does he do for a job? What do his parents do? How did he meet our Third Dog?”

“…”

After a moment of silence, Fang Yusheng honestly answered, “Old Master, my surname is Fang, and my name is Fang Yusheng. I’m 29 this year. My family lives in Binjiang City. My father is a businessman, and my mother is a physics professor. She has already passed away. As for Third…” Fang Yusheng almost said “Third Dog.” Fortunately, he stopped in time and quickly changed his words. “I’ve known Ah Sheng for a long time. It’s a love of my own choice.”

“You’re quite honest. Saying whatever you want.” Qiao Yunfan was very satisfied with Fang Yusheng’s honesty.

“Ah Sheng likes me to be honest,” Fang Yusheng said without changing his expression.

Qiao Jiusheng almost wanted to roll her eyes.

He’s really honest…

In fact, many people at the scene were surprised by Fang Yusheng’s reaction. Fang Yusheng had always been a demon king. He could not be bothered with anyone he disliked. So, it was surprising that he was willing to give Qiao Yunfan face today.

Fang Mu could not help but look at Fang Yusheng a few more times.

Everyone thought that Fang Yusheng was putting on an act. Only Fang Yusheng knew how serious he was at that moment.

As long as they were Qiao Jiusheng’s elders, even if they were seniors with dementia, they were people he respected.

After all, this crazy old man was the person his sweetheart respected and loved.

He loved everything she loved.

He hated everything she hated.

After figuring out Fang Yusheng’s background, Qiao Yunfan was relieved.

He opened the box in his hands and took out two gemstone dragon and phoenix pendants.

The gemstone pendants were exquisite and luxurious. The dragon and phoenix hugged each other, but could also separate by themselves. The main body of the pendant was a gem, and the heads of the dragons and phoenixes were embedded with gold. The eyes of the dragons and phoenixes were rose-red.

It was obvious that these pendants were masterpieces.

The two necklaces were completely the same. The only difference was their color.

The gemstone pendant on the left was blue, and the one on the right was light pink.

Qiao Yunfan looked at the pendants, and his turbid eyes cleared up for a moment. His eyes revealed a reminiscent look as he said in a deep voice, “These dragon and phoenix gold pendants were designed for you two children. It’s a pity that your father isn’t around to give it to you.”

Tears appeared in the old man’s eyes.

Beside Qiao Yunfan, Qiao Sen couldn’t help but turn his head.

Qiao Jiuyin’s eyes were also filled with tears. She thought of her solemn and tall father. Her parents had suddenly passed away overseas. She and her siblings had not even seen their corpses and only saw a handful of ashes. As Qiao Jiuyin recalled that sad experience, her tears flowed out.

Qiao Jiusheng blankly stared at the dragon and phoenix gold pendants.

Dad…

She knew that her parents had died in an accident. Logically speaking, she should remember the memories of their deaths very clearly. After all, that was the pain of losing her family. However, it was strange that her memories of that time were rather vague.

Ji Qing saw the tears on Qiao Jiuyin’s face and suddenly narrowed her eyes.

She looked at Qiao Jiuyin again with scrutiny and suspicion.

“Back then, he said that these pendants would be given to you on the day of your wedding. The phoenix belongs to you, and the dragon will be given to your new husband. Unfortunately, he left too early and did not see you get married.” Qiao Yunfan sniffed and handed the two gem pendants to Qiao Jiusheng and Qiao Jiuyin.

“Ah Yin, this is yours.” He handed the light pink one to Qiao Jiuyin.

Qiao Jiuyin took the pendant with a face covered in tears.

Qiao Yunfan then looked at Qiao Jiusheng and handed her the other one. “Xiao Sheng, this is yours.”

Qiao Jiusheng wanted to take it.

In her heart, a thousand voices constantly shouted, “Take it! Take it! This belongs to you!”

However, she stubbornly held on, constantly warning herself that she could not accept it.

She was Qi Yunsheng; she was not qualified to take what belonged to Qiao Jiusheng.

Qiao Sen was also in a difficult position. Just as he was about to persuade his grandfather, Ji Qing suddenly snatched the pendant and forced it into Qiao Jiusheng’s hand. “Since it’s from my grandfather, just accept it. It’s fate.” Ji Qing stared at Qiao Jiusheng’s brown eyes, her eyes clear.

Qiao Jiusheng was stunned.

She wanted to reject it, but at this moment, Fang Yusheng, who was beside her, said, “Take it, Ah Sheng.”

You should take what belongs to you.

When Qiao Jiusheng heard this, she finally stopped rejecting it and accepted the pendant. She then thanked Qiao Yunfan.

When Qiao Yunfan handed over the pendants, he seemed to have aged several years in an instant.

He sighed from his armchair. “I’m tired.”

“Grandpa, let’s go back and rest.” Qiao Sen held his hand.

Qiao Yunfan narrowed his eyes and stared at Qiao Sen for a long time. He then said, “Alright, Jingren, accompany me back to rest.”

“Okay.”

After Qiao Yunfan left, the others bid farewell one after another.

When everyone left, Qiao Jiuyin looked at Qiao Jiusheng. She stared at Qiao Jiusheng’s figure. In a daze, she thought that she had seen Qiao Jiusheng on the day of her graduation again. A shocking thought suddenly appeared in Qiao Jiuyin’s heart.

This person…
