Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

“My Ah Sheng is not as vicious as you.”

Shock overtook Qiao Jiuyin’s pale face. As if she had lost her soul, she asked Fang Yusheng in a daze, “When did you find out?”

At this point, Fang Yusheng had no intention of hiding it from her anymore.

He told her, “Many years ago, when Fang Mu saw through your identity, I knew about it too.”

Qiao Jiuyin could not imagine that Fang Yusheng had known her true identity more than twenty years ago. Fang Yusheng liked Qiao Jiusheng. If he knew that she was not Qiao Jiusheng and that the real Qiao Jiusheng had died because of her, he would not let her go.

Qiao Jiuyin was terrified.

She looked up and saw Fang Yusheng’s mocking smile. Suddenly, she thought of something and her expression changed. She shrieked, “It’s you!”

Fang Yusheng was still smiling.

“Tell me, what did you guess?” Fang Yusheng didn’t deny it. Instead, he looked like he was all ears.

Qiao Jiuyin had just been guessing. But when she saw his reaction, all her guesses turned into certainty. She said, “You bribed that criminal and had him kill Fang Mu?”

Fang Yusheng nodded and admitted it. “That’s right. I did it.”

Qiao Jiuyin’s lips quivered; she was speechless.

Seeing Qiao Jiuyin’s frightened look, Fang Yusheng felt evil and said, “There are other things. Do you want to hear them?”

Qiao Jiuyin was stunned. “What? What else did you do?”

Fang Yusheng smiled and tirelessly said, “I was the one who bribed Fang Mu’s cellmate. I was the one who saved Cheng Ke. I was the one who asked Cheng Ke to release Fang Mu’s video. I was the one who gave Fang Pingjue the video about Mu Chen’s death. I was the one who introduced Hu Yao to Fang Mu. I was also the one who introduced Hu Yao’s sister, Song Yin, to Fang Mu. Finally, it was me who asked the paparazzi to release the video of you having an affair with that man.”

After saying all that, Fang Yusheng saw that Qiao Jiuyin’s face was pale and devoid of any color. He smiled and softly asked her, “Qiao Jiuyin, are you very surprised?”

Qiao Jiuyin was furious, but she was even more terrified.

She looked at Fang Yusheng as if she were looking at the devil. “Fang Yusheng, what exactly do you want to do?” Her pupils shrank into two tiny dots. She was nervous and afraid, which made her voice tremble slightly.

Fang Yusheng touched the prayer beads in his hand. His expression was calm and composed. He looked harmless and gentle, but the words that came out of his mouth were cold and cruel. He said, “I just want you guys to die with my Ah Sheng.”

She could accompany her in death.

These four words were spoken lightly, but they made it difficult for Qiao Jiuyin to breathe.

“Ha.”

She laughed self-deprecatingly. “To think that Fang Mu and I treated you as a useless blind man. I didn’t expect you to be a poisonous snake.” He was a poisonous snake, a poisonous snake that could silently lurk for more than twenty years.

This venomous snake did not move, but once it did, it would kill!

In the distance, other people still came to pay their respects. Qiao Jiuyin was certain that Fang Yusheng would not dare to do anything to her, so she fled.

When she got home, she immediately bought a plane ticket and packed her things. Then, she got the chauffeur to fetch her two children from school. Qiao Jiuyin planned to escape China with her children, but before leaving, she had to visit her sister.

In the past, every time she visited Qiao Jiusheng, Qiao Jiuyin would erase all traces of her. Therefore, neither Fang Mu nor Fang Yusheng had discovered her existence.

However, Qiao Jiuyin could not be bothered to do so today.

She wanted Fang Yusheng to discover Qiao Jiusheng’s existence. She wanted Fang Yusheng to see the old Qiao Jiusheng, who had lost her tongue and was neither human nor ghost! When Fang Yusheng would see his once young and beautiful sweetheart turn into such a miserable state, his heart would ache.

Qiao Jiuyin was a person who wanted to see others suffer if she was not doing well herself.

She went to see Qiao Jiusheng and saw that her sister was so skinny that only bones were left of her. This made Qiao Jiuyin a little upset. However, when she thought about how Fang Mu and her miserable ending was all thanks to her, she felt her hatred toward Qiao Jiusheng surge again!

What’s so good about Qiao Jiusheng!

In the past, Fang Mu was devoted to her, and now, Fang Yusheng had sacrificed his entire life for her!

What’s so good about her?

Qiao Jiuyin bade farewell to Qiao Jiusheng. However, she did not kill her before leaving. She was waiting for Fang Yusheng’s men to discover her. If Fang Yusheng did not recognize Qiao Jiusheng, his life would become a joke. If Fang Yusheng did, he would be in so much pain that he would wish he were dead!

Qiao Jiuyin smugly ran away. She took her two children and personally drove to the airport in the middle of the night.

She had thought that she would be able to escape, but the car exploded on the highway to the airport! The explosion took Qiao Jiuyin’s and the two children’s lives on the spot.

The next day, a photo of the scene of the car accident appeared in the headlines.

The police sealed off the area and investigated the scene for a long time. In the end, they could not find anything unusual. This car accident was deemed an accidental explosion.

“Sir, Qiao Jiuyin and her sons have already gone.”

Qi Bufan was also in his fifties. Other than a few wrinkles at the corner of his eyes, there were no other changes to him. On the other hand, Fang Yusheng still looked young, and his skin was still smooth and fair. He did not look like someone in his fifties.

When Fang Yusheng heard Qi Bufan’s words, he only hummed in agreement.

Qi Bufan added, “We found out that Qiao Jiuyin went to a place before she escaped last night.”

“Yeah?”

Qi Bufan took out a stack of photos and handed them to Fang Yusheng.

Fang Yusheng took the photo and frowned when he saw the woman who could barely be called a human. “Who is this person?” He couldn’t imagine what a person must have gone through to be tortured like this.

The old woman in the photo had almost lost all her hair. Only a few strands of white hair remained on her head. The woman was especially thin. A dirty and tattered T-shirt covered her, and her arms, which were exposed, were bony.

This person did not seem like a human but more like a walking corpse.

Qi Bufan could not bear to look at that person. He told Fang Yusheng the information he had found. “There’s no way to investigate this person’s background. We only know that Qiao Jiuyin had imprisoned her. Qiao Jiuyin was very cruel to this person. She cut her tongue and tied her up with iron chains.

“This person could move in a range of only 20 square meters. Her body is in a bad state. She is malnourished, causing various parts of her body to show signs of exhaustion and weakness.

“There’s no way to save her. She can only wait for death.”

After saying that, Qi Bufan saw that Fang Yusheng did not say anything and only stared at the photo. He asked him, “Sir, how should we deal with this woman?”

After pondering it for a moment, Fang Yusheng said, “Find a welfare home, and let her stay there.”

“Okay.”

Qi Bufan called one of his men and asked him to do this. When the man heard this, he said, “How about this, I’ll get the woman who brought her food to send her to the nursing home.”

“Sure.”

After taking revenge, Fang Yusheng was at a loss.

What should I do?

One day, Aunt Jin’s daughter, Yingying, called. She said that Aunt Jin was already old and had already left this world. Fang Yusheng answered the call and didn’t think much about it. He immediately called Qi Bufan and went to Anyang County with him to Aunt Jin’s hometown.

When Aunt Jin died, she was 76 years old. She had died very suddenly. A person who was eating properly suddenly stopped breathing.

Such deaths were usually caused by old age.

Fang Yusheng looked at Aunt Jin’s chubby photo and didn’t feel sad. He just felt that it was sudden.

He knelt and burned some paper money for her.

The weather was very hot. Aunt Jin’s body was placed in an ice coffin. Fang Yusheng walked up to take a look and found that she had lost some weight. He found it funny. When Aunt Jin was alive, she kept saying that she wanted to lose weight and that she would look thin in black clothes.

Now that she was dead, she was wearing a black shroud and lying in a coffin; she had lost weight.

Looking at Aunt Jin’s body, Fang Yusheng suddenly thought of the woman who was imprisoned by Qiao Jiuyin. On the way back from Anyang County to Binjiang City, Fang Yusheng suddenly asked Qi Bufan, “Where is that person?”

Qi Bufan didn’t understand what he meant.

“Who?”

“The person who Qiao Jiuyin had locked up.”

Qi Bufan recalled it. “A retirement home.”

“Let’s go there and take a look.”

Hearing this, Qi Bufan was surprised. “Okay.” He suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and drove to Jing An Nursing Home.

Fang Yusheng didn’t get out of the car. He rolled down the car window and looked through the metal fence to see the interior of the nursing home. The woman, who was so scarily thin, had changed into a clean set of clothes. She wore a light-colored checkered shirt and long black pants. She was sitting in a wheelchair. Since she didn’t have hair, she had worn a sun hat.

She was sitting under a tree. Beside her was a man drawing on a drawing board.

Fang Yusheng heard Qi Bufan say, “That man is the director of the nursing home. His name is Wei Shuyi.”

“Oh.”

As he was painting, Wei Shuyi would occasionally tilt his head and say a few words to the woman. The old woman listened and would occasionally smile without answering. She was mute and could not speak.

She was an ugly and haggard old woman, but when she smiled, Fang Yusheng felt a sense of familiarity.

Who does she resemble?

He did not recall that this person’s smile resembled Qiao Jiuyin’s. However, she was not as beautiful as Qiao Jiuyin. Her face was sallow and thin. If she stood beside Qiao Jiuyin, no one would recognize her as Qiao Jiusheng.

Fang Yusheng looked at her, feeling a little depressed.

He couldn’t even tell what was going on with him.

After taking one last look at the woman, Fang Yusheng said to Qi Bufan, “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

When he returned to his house from the nursing home, Fang Yusheng packed his things and went to America.

He attended an auction held in America.

The items auctioned were all high-tech products.

After decades of development, X Smart Company had become more and more impressive. A few decades ago, they had showcased a couple technology ring called Telepathy. When it was released, the entire world had sought it. Later, X Smart Company developed many high-tech products, including mecha and fighter jets.

Fang Yusheng and Zhuang Long sat together. The two of them would occasionally lower their heads to chat. When they saw something that interested them, they would raise their heads to take a look. If they saw a product that suited their tastes, Zhuang Long would call out a price. Fang Yusheng had never called out a price. He did not know what use it would be to buy these high-tech products.

The auction lasted for an hour and forty minutes. Finally, the last item came on the stage.

“This product was created by my company after ten years of research. It’s the only surreal high-tech product we have.”

This gimmick was enough to attract attention.

Even Fang Yusheng looked up.

On the auction stage, there was something that looked like a glass cabinet. It was transparent and had a black light in its middle. The presenter continued, “We have developed 200 versions of this product. Among them, 199 were useless. Only this one is a perfect success.

“We call it Time wishing machine No. 199.”

Someone asked what use the product had.

The presenter revealed an awkward smile and said, “To be honest, I don’t know the exact function either.”

Everyone was speechless.

He didn’t even know what it was for. Why would we buy it?

The presenter continued, “Ten years ago, a fragment called the Star of Wishes fell in South Africa. We discovered it and found a piece of black refined iron on the fragment. After many special and complicated procedures, our technicians extracted a ball of black light substance from the refined iron. We discovered that this black substance has the effect of absorbing life force.”

Everyone was shocked.

Who would dare to buy something that can absorb life force?

What motives would the buyer have?

“The reason we call it the Time Wishing Machine is because it comes from the Star of Wishes. It has traveled through the long passage of time to come to our side. Since it has come here, there must be a reason for its existence. Even though I don’t know the specifics of this thing, I’m guessing that it has a special function. The starting price…”

“Thirty million USD!”

Silence filled the room.

After nearly ten seconds, someone called out a bid, but not many people did.

Fang Yusheng looked at the ball of black light and remained silent for a long time.

Ten minutes later, no one was willing to bid anymore.

Zhuang Long whispered into Fang Yusheng’s ear, “This thing must have a special use. He probably wants to buy it for fun…” Before he could finish, Fang Yusheng suddenly said, “Two hundred and thirty million USD.”

Zhuang Long was speechless.

Fang Yusheng glanced at him and said, “I’m interested in it too.”

“Oh, I’ll give it to you then.”

Zhuang Long did not bid with him.

In the end, Fang Yusheng bought the ball of light that had no use.
