Reincarnation: I Married My Ex’s Brother

Chapter 376: I Want To Eat Dumplings

Beauty Wu did not know whether to laugh or cry.
She immediately took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Qiao Jiusheng.

Alluring Beauty: [Ah Sheng, your Mr.
Fang won a sports car!]

Ah Sheng replied to her message quickly.

It was a screenshot of her conversation with Fang Yusheng.

The conversation was as follows—

9:10pm

An: [This banquet is boring.
I want to go back.]

An: [I didn’t get the third prize.]

An: [I’m not included in the second prize either!]

An: [I did not get the first prize.]

An: [I suspect that Dongli Shenghua and the rest are up to something.
Those who win the prize are probably his trusted subordinates.
I came for nothing.]

9:57pm

An: [Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng! Hahaha! Damn it, Dongli Shenghua is truly a man.
Interesting!]

An: [A sports car! We can change our electric scooter.]

Qiao Jiusheng: [Congratulations.]

After reading the screenshot, Beauty Wu had mixed feelings.

Previously, when Fang Yusheng was acting so flirtatiously on the stage, Beauty Wu thought that he really did not care about a sports car.
When she saw the screenshot, she felt like laughing.

Dongli Shenghua stared at her smile in a daze.

Beauty Wu put away her phone and looked up.
When she saw Dongli Shenghua staring at her in a daze, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.

After the banquet ended, Dongli Shenghua asked Pan Jie to send Beauty Wu back first before sending him home.

In the car, Dongli Shenghua suddenly said to Pan Jie, “That Liu Tao…”

“Yes?”

Pan Jie asked curiously, “What happened to Liu Tao?”

“He took drugs so temporarily suspend his activities.
Replace him in all the television dramas he has signed with.
Let his manager send him to the overseas rehabilitation center.
When he quits his drug addiction, he can return to the country.”

Panj was surprised.
“You said he took drugs?”

“Yeah.”

“You saw it?”

“I found it,” Beauty Wu replied.

Pan Jie looked at Beauty Wu in surprise, his eyes deep in thought.

“Okay.”

The car stopped outside the district.
Dongli Shenghua wanted to send Beauty Wu home, but Beauty Wu rolled her eyes at him.
“Stop it, Mr.
Dongli.
You’ve left a deep trauma in me by sending me home.”

Thinking about what happened last night, Dongli Shenghua was stunned and did not insist.

After Beauty Wu got out of the car and left, Pan Jie turned around and said to Dongli Shenghua, “Sir, keeping Miss Wu by your side is a hidden danger.”

Dongli Shenghua said, “I know what I’m doing.”

“It’s good that you know what you’re doing.”

That night, Beauty Wu waited until past midnight before sleeping.

On the 29th, she was on leave.

She could not help but run to Deep Sea Hospital.
She realized that Wei Shuyi’s name was no longer on the permanent doctor’s column of the Cardiovascular Surgery Department.

Beauty Wu stared at the empty spot where Wei Shuyi’s name card used to be and was lost in thought for a long time.

He left…

It was good that he had left.
There would be no danger if he left.

At the end of the year, every company had endless things to do.
Dongli Shenghua became abnormally busy.
Not only did he go on business trips every two to three days, but he also often worked overtime until midnight.
This made Beauty Wu not have time to grieve.

This lasted until 26th December before he gradually relaxed.

It was almost the new year.

Dongli Shenghua began to rest for the New Year on the 29th of December.
He also gave Beauty Wu a break.

Beauty Wu drove her motorcycle out of Dongli Shenghua’s house.
After suddenly taking a vacation, she actually felt that she had nowhere to go.
She drove around the city aimlessly.
When she turned off the engine and looked up, she realized that she had arrived at Wei Shuyi’s neighborhood.

She stood at the entrance of the district for a long time before deciding to go in.

The security guard had known her for a long time.
He didn’t know that Beauty Wu and Wei Shuyi had already broken up.
When he saw her, he even nodded and greeted her.

Beauty Wu nodded at him.

She strolled to Wei Shuyi’s house and looked up at his house.
She realized that the windows on the balcony were closed.

She could not control her heart.
In the end, she still entered the elevator and arrived at his door.

When her fingers landed on the password lock of their house, Beauty Wu’s heart raced.

She was a little afraid to press the password.

She was afraid that Wei Shuyi had changed the password.

After hesitating for a long time, she pressed the passcode.

To her surprise, Wei Shuyi did not change the password.

His house was the same as when Beauty Wu had come in the past.
Everything was placed in its original place and did not move.
The only change was that he had shifted the position of the wild lily.
He probably knew that Beauty Wu would come, so he actually placed the wild lily on the coffee table in the living room.
There was a sentence written beside the flower pot—

I regret knowing you especially sometimes, but we were in love once.
If time were to turn back and let me choose, I would probably still choose to meet you.
I can’t take care of this plant anymore.
Take it away, if you ever see this message.

Beauty Wu took the pot of flowers and placed it on the bay window in her brother’s bedroom.

She took a few sticks of incense, lit them, and placed them in the holder.
She stood in front of her brother’s memorial tablet and muttered to herself.

“I lost him, Cheng Cheng.”

“Perhaps I shouldn’t have provoked him in the first place.
However, I don’t know how deeply I fell in love with him.
If I could control myself, it wouldn’t be called liking him anymore.”

“I still like him a lot.”

Beauty Wu smiled bitterly.
“It’s just that my liking is less impudent and more restrained.”

“Cheng Cheng, Sister misses him so much.”

On New Year’s Eve, Beauty Wu spent the New Year alone at home.

The house was quite cold.

There were four pairs of chopsticks on a rectangular table.
Three pairs of chopsticks were placed on top of bowls.
Beauty Wu sat below and said to the imaginary person in the high seat as she ate, “Dad, your daughter has been having a particularly lively year.
I was fired from the bureau.
I couldn’t be a police officer and went to be a bodyguard.
I fell in love, but I broke up again.”

“Mom, I realized that you’re right.
The more expensive skincare products are, the better they are.
A woman’s face is really worth a lot of money.
No wonder Dad always said that you were a prodigal.”

“Oh right, Aunt has left too.
Dad, did you see her in the netherworld? Did she forgive Grandpa?”

“Cheng Cheng, your sister is preparing to do something big.
Wait for me to help you take revenge…”

She muttered to herself from eight to nine o’clock before she finished the reunion dinner.

After washing the dishes, Beauty Wu turned on the television and watched the Spring Festival Gala alone.

The humor of the skit was getting more vulgar year by year.
The dance was getting more and more boring, but Beauty Wu still wanted to watch it.

She curled up on the sofa and hugged a pillow.
She suddenly thought of this day last year.

That night, although she and Kang Hui were on duty at the police station, she felt very happy.
She did the work she loved with her like-minded friends, ate the dumplings sent by her beloved, and secretly kissed the person she liked on New Year’s day.

But this year, she was alone.

Without her brothers, friends, loved ones, and delicious dumplings.

In the morning, Beauty Wu couldn’t help but pick up her phone and send a Happy New Year message to her WeChat friend circle.

Many people liked her comment, but Wei Shuyi was not among them.

Beauty Wu searched for Wei Shuyi’s WeChat status and realized that he had restriced it to a circle of friends and was only visible for three days.
During these three days, he didn’t have any updates.

She had nothing to do but sleep.
She flipped through the conversations between her and Wei Shuyi over the past year.

She was so talkative.

It was unbelievable that Wei Shuyi could tolerate her.

He had suffered.

It was midnight in Binjiang City, but noon in Cleveland.

When he first arrived in America, he was not used to the language and food.
Once he was free, Wei Shuyi could not help but think wildly.
He held his phone and sat in the cafe, staring at the time on his phone screen in a daze.

It was the new year…

Last year, on New Year’s Eve, she still had him and Kang Hui to accompany her.
This year, was there anyone accompanying her?

Wei Shuyi felt that he deserved a beating.

They had already broken up, what was the use of reminiscing about those things?

He scrolled through his WeChat Moments and saw Beauty Wu’s Happy New Year message.
She even attached a photo of the Spring Festival Gala.

In the photo, Beauty Wu’s feet were placed on the coffee table as she appeared on screen.

Wei Shuyi stared at her feet and realized that she was not wearing socks.
He frowned slightly.

Wasn’t she afraid of catching a cold if she didn’t wear socks in the winter?

Wei Shuyi’s worry was not unreasonable.
When she woke up the next morning, Beauty Wu realized that she had caught a cold.

Headache, throat pain, phlegm…

She went to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, ate it, and slept for the entire day.

On the first day of the new year, Beauty Wu fell asleep.

On the second day of the New Year, Beauty Wu first went to the cemetery to pay respects to her parents, then went to the countryside to pay respects to her grandfather, grandmother, and younger brother.
On the third day of the New Year, her body, which had recovered a little, started to catch a fever again.
She took her medicine, wrapped herself in the blanket, and slept soundly.

This day was also Valentine’s Day and Beauty Wu slept through it.

On the fifth day of the New Year, Qiao Jiusheng returned from her maiden home in Junyang City.
She personally called Beauty Wu and wanted to call her over for dinner.

In the end, Beauty Wu did not accept it.

Qiao Jiusheng was worried.
She turned on the GPS and found Beauty Wu’s house.
She brought Fang Yusheng and Qi Bufan to her house personally.

She rang the doorbell, but no one opened it.

After asking the neighbor and knowing that she had never left the house, Qiao Jiusheng could not help but frown.

She was really worried and said to Qi Bufan, “Open the door.”

Qi Bufan fiddled with the keyhole for a while before the door opened.

Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng entered Beauty Wu’s house and glanced at the shoes by the entrance.
After confirming that Beauty Wu was really at home, the two of them could not help but frown at the same time.
She was at home but did not pick up the phone.
Could something have happened?

The two of them quickly entered the house and went straight to the master bedroom.

At the entrance of the master bedroom, Fang Yusheng stopped in his tracks and let Qiao Jiusheng enter.

Qiao Jiusheng pushed open the door of the master bedroom and saw Beauty Wu hiding under the blanket.

“Are you sleeping?”

Qiao Jiusheng walked over quickly and lifted the blanket.
Seeing that Beauty Wu’s face was red, she guessed that she might have caught a cold.
She lifted the blanket and realized that Beauty Wu was dressed well before calling Fang Yusheng in.

Fang Yusheng entered and Qiao Jiusheng reached out to touch Beauty Wu’s forehead.

“High fever.”

“It’s quite serious,” Fang Yusheng said.

They sent Beauty Wu to the hospital.
After a checkup, she actually had a fever of 39.5 degrees Celsius.

The doctor took her blood for a checkup.
After confirming that it was a high fever caused by a cold, he asked her to stay in the hospital and treated her.

In the middle of the night, Beauty Wu’s fever gradually subsided.

She smiled bitterly when she saw that Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng were both around and that she was in the hospital.

“If you guys didn’t come, I would have probably died of a fever at home.”

Qiao Jiusheng reprimanded her with a cold expression.
“It’s the new year, don’t talk nonsense.”

Seeing Qiao Jiusheng’s fierce look, Beauty Wu really shut up.

“You have to be careful staying alone.
I happened to call this time and realized that you did not pick up the phone.
I was worried about you, so I went to your house to take a look.
If this were any other time, what would happen if anything happened to you?” Qiao Jiusheng felt pity for Beauty Wu.

If anything happened to her, who would know?

In the past, Brother Wei cared about her.
Now, Brother Wei and her…

Qiao Jiusheng sighed and said to her, “Rest well.
What do you want to eat? I’ll bring it over for you tomorrow.”

Beauty Wu said, “Forget it.
I’ve already given you too much trouble.”

“Sister Beauty.” Qiao Jiusheng’s expression turned serious.
She said, “Even if you and Brother Wei are over, our friendship will last forever.
Don’t be afraid of trouble.
What do you want to eat? Just tell me and I’ll bring it for you.”

Beauty Wu was speechless.

She was actually touched.

She said, “I want to eat dumplings.”

Qiao Jiusheng looked at her and said, “How about porridge and dumplings?”

“Sure.”

The next morning, Qiao Jiusheng really sent her breakfast.

Beauty Wu finally ate the dumplings that she had been longing for, but she realized that the taste was not as good as she had imagined.
It was not that the dumplings were not delicious, but the person who made the dumplings was not the right one.

She put down her chopsticks and could not help but say to Qiao Jiusheng, “Do you blame me?”

“What?” Qiao Jiusheng pretended not to hear her.

Beauty Wu said, “Do you blame me for hurting Wei Shuyi?”

“…Relationships are between two parties.
What can I blame you for?” Qiao Jiusheng was still more rational about this.
How could an outsider like her interfere in Wei Shuyi and Beauty Wu’s relationship?

To put it bluntly, they had to suffer the cause and effect of their relationship.

Beauty Wu said, “But I blame myself.”
