Chapter 54 - Thanksgiving (1)

Chapter 54: Thanksgiving (1)

Later that day, Qiao Jiuyin used Qiao Jiusheng’s social media app to post a status on her page.
Sheng Xiao Will Not Separate: She’s my family and I cannot tolerate any person slandering her, even if that person is my best friend.
When Qiao Jiusheng saw this post, she was surprised.
She really could not tell that Qiao Jiuyin still had family in her mind. If she really valued family so much, she would’ve not been so ruthless to her biological sister.
Qiao Jiusheng clicked on this post with the intention of watching a commotion. What entered her eyes were consoling messages.
Lin Wanwan: Xiao Sheng, don’t be angry. Hug me.
Midsummer sunlight: Who made our beautiful Sheng angry? Don’t be angry. You’re pregnant now. You have to maintain a happy mood.
Mu: Heart to heart.
Miss X: Idiots are dramatic.
“Pfft!”
Miss X was Wei Xin’s online name. When Qiao Jiusheng saw Wei Xin’s message, she rolled around on the sofa laughing.
“Ouch!”
Her stomach started hurting from the laughter, so she had to stop.
Fang Yusheng listened to her indecent laughter and felt a little helpless. “What are you laughing at?”
Qiao Jiusheng held her stomach and wiped her tears as she said, “Wei Xin is really awesome. She said what was on my mind.” She told Fang Yusheng about Qiao Jiuyin’s social media posts and Wei Xin’s comments. Fang Yusheng listened to all of it but did not comment.
Qiao Jiusheng logged out of her circle of friends and searched for Wei Xin’s online. She sent her a friend request.
Wei Xin quickly accepted the request.
The two of them added each other as friends, but they did not talk.
Time quickly passed by. As the temperature continued to drop, it got closer and closer to Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving was on the 22nd, and on the morning of the 21st, the Qiao family’s eldest son and the Qiao family’s patriarch arrived in Binjiang City. Fang Mu and Qiao Jiuyin personally went to the airport to pick them up, while Fang Pingjue and Xu Pingfei waited at home. In the evening, Qiao Sen and his grandfather arrived at the Fang family.
That night, the main house bustled with noise and excitement.
Qiao Jiusheng did not know whether it was because of Fang Yusheng’s ability to create trouble or something else, but Fang Yusheng’s family was not invited to the reception banquet that night.
Qiao Jiusheng, Fang Yusheng, and Qi Bufan sat around the table and quietly ate.
Qiao Jiusheng was uncomfortable during the meal.
Her heart had already flown to the main house.
Without hearing Qiao Jiusheng’s joke, Fang Yusheng suddenly put down his chopsticks and said to her, “Let’s go to the main house too.” He could not bear to see Qiao Jiusheng unhappy.
Qiao Jiusheng almost went to the main house with him to create trouble.
However, she held back.
“Forget it. We can officially meet them tomorrow anyway.” Qiao Jiusheng impulsively ran over. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold back and confess Qiao Jiuyin’s crimes to her elder brother and grandfather. However, even if her family knew what Qiao Jiuyin had done, what could they do?
Would they send her to prison?
No, they were family after all. They would not be able to bear it.
Qiao Jiusheng did not just want to tell the world what Qiao Jiuyin had done. She wanted Qiao Jiuyin to personally suffer the sins she had suffered in her previous life. Qiao Jiusheng wanted Qiao Jiuyin to experience the pain of being cut, lashed, and imprisoned. She could not leave any grudges behind!
She wanted to patiently play a game of cat and mouse with Qiao Jiuyin.
Qiao Jiusheng barely slept that night.
When morning arrived, Butler Wan Lang personally invited Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng to the banquet.
Fang Yusheng agreed.
In the morning, Qi Bufan went to Wei Xin’s to get a gown and jewelry. Throughout the entire afternoon, Qiao Jiusheng dressed up in the house.
Qiao Jiusheng put on her makeup and changed into a gown. She held the latest set of jewelry for the season of the Love Crown brand and was a little flattered. Putting on the necklace and earrings, she turned around to ask Fang Yusheng, “Why are you so generous today? You even gave me such precious jewelry.”
Before the accident, as the beloved daughter of the Qiao family, Qiao Jiusheng had countless pieces of jewelry. However, it was different now. The phoenix on the sycamore tree had accidentally fallen into a chicken’s nest and turned into a wild chicken. Jewelry had become a luxury item for her.
Fang Yusheng gently smiled and told her, “You’re overthinking. I rented this from a jewelry shop.” Fang Yusheng pretended to be sad and said, “It costs two thousand yuan to rent it for a day! You have to cherish it. If you break it, you can’t afford to pay for it.”
Fang Yusheng’s generosity confused Qiao Jiusheng.
