Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Panda Novel

When this young lady looked at Qi Bufan, her gaze made Dai Chukong feel uncomfortable.

Women were really scary creatures. They could see the truth with just a few glances.

Upon hearing Dai Chukong introduce Qi Bufan's age so seriously, Tong Jiao was a little surprised. She narrowed her eyes and sized up Dai Chukong. She was trying to figure out the relationship between the two of them through observation.

Facing Tong Jiao's scrutinizing gaze, Dai Chukong did not dodge and looked back at her.

Two equally young women were fighting over a man the first time they met.

Dai Chukong was very pretty, and her features were exquisite. When she did not smile, she always gave off a feeling that she was very difficult to get close to. However, when she spoke to Qi Bufan, she gave off a very obedient vibe.

Tong Jiao knew in her heart that the distant and cold Dai Chukong was the real her. The reason why she revealed a different side in front of Qi Bufan was because she cared about Qi Bufan.

This woman had a close relationship with Qi Bufan.

After understanding this, Tong Jiao felt a little uncomfortable.

What was their relationship?

Tong Jiao opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Dai Chukong. Qi Bufan interrupted and said to Tong Jiao, "Miss Tong, sorry to trouble you."

Upon hearing this, Dai Chukong's expression froze slightly, but Tong Jiao seemed to have received a lot of praise. Her eyes were filled with joy. She gave Dai Chukong an ambiguous look before bending down to take out a basin from under the bed.

Tong Jiao carried the basin to get water. Her expression was energetic, as if she had won a battle.

Dai Chukong's gaze followed Tong Jiao before she turned around and stared at Qi Bufan.

How could she not understand that Qi Bufan was doing it on purpose? He was indirectly rejecting her. Dai Chukong knew it in her heart, but she could only pretend not to know. She said, "I'll go and see if the porridge is cooked."

Dai Chukong did not want to see other women touching him, so she could only escape.

Tong Jiao returned with a basin of water. She closed the door gently and carried the basin to Qi Bufan's bed. She placed it on a high stool. Only then did she lean over and lift the blanket on Qi Bufan's body, taking off his hospital gown.

There was a wound on Qi Bufan's chest, and it was wrapped in bandages. Under the bandages, his body was full of strength.

Although this was not the first time she had seen this man's masculine body, Tong Jiao's face would turn red every time she saw him. She wrung out the towel and was about to wipe Qi Bufan's body when he suddenly said, "I'll do it myself."

Tong Jiao looked at him in shock.

"Mr. Qi, I'm a nurse. You don't have to be embarrassed."

Qi Bufan knew that Tong Jiao was a nurse, but this nurse was a little dishonest. Qi Bufan insisted on wiping himself and said, "I'll do it myself."

Only then did Tong Jiao understand what Qi Bufan meant.

He was not embarrassed. He was self-disciplined and did not like other women touching him.

Tong Jiao passed the towel to Qi Bufan.

Qi Bufan asked her to raise the head of the bed a little before using a towel to wipe his upper body with difficulty. However, he could not bend down. When he wiped his lower body, he still needed Tong Jiao's help.

However, Qi Bufan only allowed Tong Jiao to wipe his thigh.

After wiping, he realized that Tong Jiao did not intend to avoid arousing suspicion and still planned to continue wiping his private area. Qi Bufan hurriedly stopped her. "Okay, Miss Tong, it's been hard on you."

Tong Jiao hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she threw the towel into the basin. She said, "Mr. Qi hasn't taken a shower in a few days. You only wiped your body. I suggest you wipe yourself carefully and change your clothes. You'll feel better."

"Miss Tong, please help me call my friend from the room next door." After a pause, Qi Bufan added, "That man."

Tong Jiao nodded and reluctantly called Lang Zhan over.

Lang Zhan wiped Qi Bufan's thigh and changed his clothes. Lang Zhan threw the pants that he had changed out of into the trash can and nagged at Qi Bufan for a long time. He talked about the training base and the matter of the morning nap.

"How's Gang Zhe?" This was all Qi Bufan cared about.

"He was shot in the leg. His leg is saved, but it might be a little inconvenient for him to walk in the future. Also, if he encounters a change in the weather, his leg will hurt a little." When Lang Zhan mentioned the situation of the recent sting, he could not help but sigh. "It's not easy for him either."

Qi Bufan said, "It's not easy for everyone."

"By the way, I've seen Chukong." Lang Zhan's face was filled with surprise. He asked Qi Bufan, "How did you raise her? You're really impressive. You raised Chukong into an adult without batting an eyelid. When you left the army and we heard that you planned to adopt that girl, we all thought you were joking."

Speaking of these past events, Lang Zhan sighed.

"I really didn't expect you to really do it. This girl was the one Boss Dai was most worried about when he was alive. Boss Dai can rest assured now."

Qi Bufan laughed helplessly.

Dai Chukong scooped some porridge and put it in a bowl. She carried the bowl and just as she walked to the door, she heard Qi Bufan's voice coming from the room. His voice still sounded a little weak.

He said, "Boss Dai and Sister-in-law have a deep relationship. When Sister-in-law died, Boss Dai was very sad. The only thing that increased his desire for survival was Chukong. Later, for me, Boss…" More than ten years had passed. Every time he thought of the scene of Boss Dai sacrificing himself to save him, Qi Bufan's expression was still full of grief.

"At that time, his biggest wish was to see Chukong grow up safely and healthily. He said that he wanted her to go to a good university and find a good job. Then, he wanted her to find a stable job and a husband who would be compatible with her and dote on her. We were all people who had experienced bloodshed and separation. It was not easy for us to live, so we looked forward to our descendants living a stable and smooth life."

"It's me." Qi Bufan raised his head slightly and saw that Lang Zhan was looking at him speechlessly. He shook his head and smiled bitterly before sighing. "I ruined a family. I caused Boss to never see his daughter again and caused Chukong to lose her father. The only thing I can do is raise her by my side and be her father."

He leaned his head back and narrowed his eyes to hide the complicated look in them.

"Boss's wish is my wish. I want to see Chukong grow up safely. I want to see her gain happiness and enter the marriage hall. Only then will I have a clear conscience when I see Boss underground in the future…"

Lang Zhan listened to Qi Bufan's words in silence. He sighed and said, "It hasn't been easy for you all these years either. Have you never thought about your own life?" Lang Zhan did not know if Qi Bufan understood what he meant, so he added, "I mean, have you never thought about finding a woman to spend the rest of your life with?"

"I thought about it a few years ago." Qi Bufan did not deny it, but he added, "But I heard that some mothers don't have a good attitude towards their non-biological children."

"I can't bear to let Chukong suffer."

Therefore, he had been single until Dai Chukong confessed to him. He could not believe that the girl he had protected as his biological daughter actually had such thoughts about him.

Lang Zhan clicked his tongue. "When you joined the team back then, the captain said that you looked evil and looked like a heartless person. I didn't expect him to be wrong."

Qi Bufan did not speak, but his eyes were on the door.

When Dai Chukong came, Qi Bufan sensed it. He said that on purpose so that she could hear him.

They could not be together. Firstly, he was her foster father. Secondly, he remembered Boss Dai's wish.

Boss Dai hoped that she would find a husband who was compatible with her.

Exactly…

They were 17 years apart. In terms of age, they were not compatible.
