Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Chapter 213: Who Doesn’t Know How to Act?

Qiao Jiuyin sadly returned to her senses. She did not even dare to loudly breathe in front of Fang Mu’s cold eyes.

Fang Mu used a cold towel to wipe the sweat on her forehead. As he wiped it, he said, “I just wiped your face. Why are you sweating again?”

Qiao Jiuyin’s hands, which were hanging under the blanket, trembled.

“I-I’m fine. It’s just that my wound hurts a little,” Qiao Jiuyin weakly said. At this moment, no matter how painful the wound was, it could not match the fear in her heart.

Fang Mu stared at her.

Qiao Jiuyin felt goosebumps all over her body.

Did he guess something?

“Then rest well.” Fang Mu did not pursue her abnormal behavior.

He carried the water bucket into the washroom. When he turned around, Qiao Jiuyin instantly acted like a fish lacking water, opening her mouth to take deep breaths.

Qiao Jiusheng, who had been watching Qiao Jiuyin and Fang Mu’s interaction, wanted to laugh at Qiao Jiuyin’s reaction, but she could not.

She walked to the bed and took out a soft tissue to wipe Qiao Jiuyin’s sweat. As she wiped it, she said, “It’s strange! Why would anyone steal such a thing for no reason? It’s pitiful to see a child with a disability and no breath after birth. He can’t even rest in peace even when he’s dead. The person who stole the child is detestable.”

Qiao Jiusheng’s beautiful face became filled with doubts. She muttered, “Who would steal a stillborn? Could it be that the child’s parents have offended someone? An enemy who won’t even let go of their dead child?”

Qiao Jiusheng’s words reminded Qiao Jiuyin.

Enemies?

Her heart fell in turmoil as she thought of Qiao Jiusheng, who was hiding in the dark somewhere.

Could it be that Xiao Sheng has been following me and watching my every move?

Qiao Jiusheng patiently admired Qiao Jiuyin’s constantly changing expressions and felt secretly happy. “This child can’t even die in peace. Sigh! Tell me, if the child’s parents knew that the child’s corpse had been stolen, they would definitely be in great pain, right? I’m afraid they won’t be able to sleep and will have nightmares every night, right?”

“Ugh…” Qiao Jiuyin was probably frightened by the nightmares. She suddenly whimpered, widened her eyes, and softly cried.

Qiao Jiusheng was stunned. “Sister-in-law, what’s wrong with you?”

Qiao Jiuyin’s eyes widened, and her hands trembled non-stop. A chill ran down her spine.

“Is your wound hurting?” Qiao Jiusheng deliberately asked even though she knew that Qiao Jiuyin was just frightened.

Qiao Jiuyin suddenly roared at her, “Qi Yunsheng, get lost! Get lost!” Qiao Jiuyin was not stupid. Qi Yunsheng had deliberately said this in the ward in front of her, a mother who had just lost a child. If it was not revenge, what was it?

Even though she had just received a scolding, Qiao Jiusheng’s lips curled into a mocking smile. When Xu Pingfei and the rest looked over, that mocking smile immediately turned into an aggrieved expression. “Sister-in-law, I know that you’re in pain after losing the child. I also know that you look down on me, but you don’t have to shout at me to get lost!

“Besides, I didn’t want to say it anyway. Your Fang Mu wanted me to ask this.”

As Qiao Jiusheng spoke, her eyes turned red, probably because she was feeling too aggrieved. She rubbed her eyes and softly said, “I’m sorry. I said something I shouldn’t have. Don’t be angry. I’ll leave now.” With that said, she took her bag and ran out of the ward.

Qiao Jiusheng ran out of the hospital building in one breath, then strolled out of the hospital. She bought a popsicle at the ice cream shop on the street and comforted her small heart that had suffered.

Fang Mu stayed in the washroom until Qiao Jiusheng left. Only then did he walk out.

He glanced at Qiao Jiuyin, who was silently crying, and the darkness in his eyes grew heavier.
