Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Chapter 45: Phone (Part One)

Thanksgiving was still a month away, but the Fang family had already started preparing for the banquet.

Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng were also going to attend the Thanksgiving dinner, so they naturally had to make preparations.

One day, Qiao Jiusheng went to the supermarket with Aunt Jin to buy some daily necessities. When she returned, she happened to see a designer coming to the Fang family to tailor clothes for Xu Pingfei and the girls. When Qiao Jiusheng saw this, she became envious.

After the accident, all her bank cards from before had become Qiao Jiuyin’s. Now, Qiao Jiusheng was a bachelor and penniless.

To put it bluntly, she was Fang Yusheng’s parasite.

The moment she got home, Qiao Jiusheng searched the entire house for Fang Yusheng, but she could not find him.

When Aunt Jin saw that Qiao Jiusheng had yet to find Fang Yusheng, she said, “Young Master Yusheng might be in his collection room.”

Qiao Jiusheng’s eyes lit up. She hurriedly ran to the third floor and pushed open the door to the collection room that she had never entered before.

The collection room was not locked. The house had surveillance cameras everywhere and also a Qi Bufan, so there was no need to lock it. Qiao Jiusheng pushed the door open and looked around. However, she did not see Fang Yusheng. She turned around to leave, but she took another glance at the room. A phone on the table immediately captured her attention.

Ten years ago, Brand X had issued a smartphone called First Generation X. This phone was very powerful with a fingerprint lock and voice control. Only the owner of the phone could operate it. If anyone other than the owner wanted to unlock or use the phone, they had to ask the owner to set the phone that way.

Qiao Jiusheng remembered that during the Spring Festival, she had received a First Generation X phone from her father.

However, she had lost it for some reason.

Ten years had passed, and smartphones had gone from the first generation to the tenth generation. Each generation was more expensive than the last. The phone on the table was a First Generation X phone, a phone from ten years ago. Yet, it looked brand new. This showed how much Fang Yusheng loved this phone.

Qiao Jiusheng had not seen a First Generation X phone in many years. It was an antique.

She could not help but walk forward and pick up the phone.

After taking a closer look at the front and back of the phone, Qiao Jiusheng was even more surprised. There were no scratches on the phone’s body at all.?Come to think of it, this phone must mean a lot to Fang Yusheng.?Qiao Jiusheng just did not know whether the phone meant a lot to Fang Yusheng or the person who gave him the phone was very important.

As she guiltily looked around, she confirmed that Fang Yusheng was really not in the room. She placed the phone back.

She touched her phone with her right hand and muttered, “I hope he doesn’t find out that I sneaked into his collection room…”

Qiao Jiusheng quietly left the collection room. Just as she reached the second floor, she bumped into Fang Yusheng and Qi Bufan.

“Ah Sheng?”

Sensing that someone was standing in front of him, Fang Yusheng guessed that this person must be Qiao Jiusheng. So, he said, “Aunt Jin said that you were looking for me.”

“Oh, right.”

“What’s the matter?”

Qiao Jiusheng quickly said, “It’s like this. Someone came from the main house and measured Aunt Xu’s and her sisters’ sizes. They want to make customized dresses. Um, I also want to have two made, but…” Qiao Jiusheng’s fingers were wrapped together as she softly said, “You know my situation. I’m really shy…”

Fang Yusheng’s lips curled up a little as he understood what she meant. He placed his hands behind his back and expressionlessly said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Beg me.”

Qiao Jiusheng replied, “Beg your sister!”

She spat and ran downstairs.

As soon as she left, Fang Yusheng’s expressionless face suddenly beamed. “Bufan, call Miss Wei Xin later and tell her about Madam’s height.”

“Okay.”

Fang Yusheng then pushed open the door of the collection room and walked in. He said to Qi Bufan, “Ah Nuo wants something in the third row. Just take it off and give it to him.”

Behind him, Qi Bufan remained silent.

Fang Yusheng was puzzled when Qi Bufan did not reply.

“What is it?”

Qi Bufan looked at the phone with the bright screen on the table as his eyes flickered with confusion. He said to Fang Yusheng, “Mr. Fang, that phone…”

“What happened to the phone?” Fang Yusheng thought that the phone was missing, so he instantly became nervous. However, he heard Qi Bufan say, “It’s unlocked.”

“…”

Fang Yusheng’s handsome face suddenly froze. It seemed as if he had turned into a wooden statue.

After a moment of silence, Fang Yusheng’s fingers trembled.

“What did you say?”

There was a hint of nervousness and caution in Fang Yusheng’s voice.

Qi Bufan walked forward, picked up the phone, and looked at it again. Then, he turned around and repeated his words to Fang Yusheng. “Mr. Fang, the phone is unlocked.”

Fang Yusheng’s breathing quickened.

He took the phone and touched it.

The phone was cold, devoid of any warmth. Yet, Fang Yusheng’s heart started to burn.

“Extraordinary.”

“Mr. Fang, I’m here.”

Tightly holding the phone, Fang Yusheng said, “Check the surveillance cameras!”
