Reincarnation: I Married My Ex’s Brother-Chapter 262 - Loving You Is the Cleanest Thing

Fang Mu sarcastically smiled and asked the reporter, “Do I look like a stupid person?”

The reporter was stunned.

Fang Mu continued, “Unless a pig has eaten my brain, why would I harm my brother? Our relationship is indeed not ordinary, and we even have some grudges; to be honest, I personally don’t like him, but I, Fang Mu, am not ruthless enough to plot against my brother.

“Besides, if I harmed him now, won’t others suspect me?”

Fang Mu’s words made sense.

The reporter pondered for a moment before asking, “Everyone knows that Mr. Fang Yusheng’s wife is your ex-girlfriend. Could it be that you hate him because of your love and want to eradicate him?” When the reporter saw Fang Mu’s gaze turn cold, his legs trembled. Yet, he still said boldly, “Besides, it’s not rare for sisters to kill each other and brothers to kill each other. Didn’t your ex-wife, Madam Qiao Jiuyin, treat Madam Qiao Jiusheng—”

Before the reporter could finish speaking, Fang Mu interrupted him. “You’re the reporter from Today’s news, right? I advise you to learn the laws of our country before interviewing others. I think that your actions have already constituted a defamation crime…”

The reporter turned pale and took half a step back.

Fang Mu’s words successfully stopped the reporters who wanted to interview him.

His words shocked everyone. After that, Fang Mu turned to leave.

The reporters opened up a path for him.

As Fang Mu strode into the office, the employees greeted him respectfully. He didn’t know when it had started, but whenever the employees called Fang Mu, they no longer used the word “vice president.”

Fang Mu took the elevator upstairs. In the elevator, when he thought of the reporter’s impudent question, he got a little annoyed. However, when he thought about how Fang Yusheng was already dead, his mood improved again.

He went into the office and thought of something. Turning on his computer, he connected to the Swiss bank and transferred the rest of the money into Black’s account.

Once the money was transferred, Fang Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

He leaned against the swivel chair and placed his hands on his abdomen. His thick eyebrows and ink-black eyes were full of determination.

Xiao Sheng!

Fang Mu picked up his phone and called Qiao Jiusheng.

The call was picked up very quickly. Before Fang Mu could speak, Qiao Jiusheng anxiously said, “What do you want to do by capturing Fang Yusheng? Do you want money? How much do you want? I’ll give it all as long as you let Fang Yusheng go.”

The smile on Fang Mu’s face vanished.

She is so nervous about Fang Yusheng…

Does she really love him?

Fang Mu bitterly smiled in his heart and said gently, “Xiao Sheng, it’s me.”

Qiao Jiusheng looked at her phone and asked in confusion, “Fang Mu?”

Fang Mu felt a lump in his heart and became uncomfortable. “Xiao Sheng, you don’t recognize my number?”

In the past, Qiao Jiusheng had memorized his phone number very well. She said that even if she could not remember anything else, she had to remember Fang Mu’s phone number. In the future, if she got lost, got robbed, or met with difficulties, she just had to give him a call to settle everything.

Qiao Jiusheng used to recognize his number at a glance.

But now, she could not remember it.

Fang Mu’s words also made Qiao Jiusheng think of the past. She thought that it was quite ironic. She did remember his number very well, but his number was no longer convenient for her. Besides, she had been imprisoned for so long in her previous life. If she could still remember a string of numbers, it would mean that her memory was outstanding.

“Fang Mu, did you do it?” Qiao Jiusheng’s voice was filled with suppressed anger.

Although she hid her anger well, Fang Mu could still feel it.

Even though Fang Mu was furious and it was his doing, he said, “It wasn’t me.”

Qiao Jiusheng suddenly sneered and mocked him. “Fang Mu, do you even have to lie to me?”

Fang Mu’s tone remained calm. Instead of answering, he questioned Qiao Jiusheng. “It’s really not me. Xiao Sheng, you don’t believe me?”

“Believe you?” Qiao Jiusheng asked in return, “Do you think I should believe someone who has tried to kill him time and time again? Fang Mu, when he was 15 years old, you blinded him. When he was 19 years old, you got a killer to chase after him and he almost died in the Fierce Sea. A while ago, you got someone to tamper with his car again. I almost lost my life along with him…”

Qiao Jiusheng kept scolding Fang Mu for all the crimes he had committed. Fang Mu heard this, but he did not retort; he just defended himself. “At that time, I did not know of your identity. I didn’t mean to harm you.” This was also Fang Mu’s regret.

If he had known ‘Qi Yunsheng’ was Qiao Jiusheng, Fang Mu would not have done that.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng remained unmoved.

Her heart was as hard as steel as she retorted, “You have committed so many crimes, yet you have the cheek to ask me to believe you?”

Fang Mu was silent.

It seems that quibbling will not work.

Xiao Sheng is no longer that girl who was easy to coax.

“Xiao Sheng, you’ve fallen in love with him, so whatever I do to him is wrong, right?” Fang Mu looked lonely, and he sounded depressed. Qiao Jiusheng could tell it.

She did not hesitate and directly said to Fang Mu, “Yes, because he is the person I love. I will hate anyone who hurts my lover.” She was so unreasonable. In the past, what Fang Mu loved was her frankness and overbearingness.

Hearing this, Fang Mu got even more upset.

“But you once loved me!” Fang Mu was finally willing to admit that he and Qiao Jiusheng had loved each other only in the past. His voice became a lot more hoarse as he complained to Qiao Jiusheng. “Why can’t you pity me? I’m an illegitimate child, an illegitimate child that’s not welcomed by the Fang family and Fang Yusheng. Was it my choice to be born like that?

“Fang Yusheng has never treated me like a human. Ever since I entered the Fang family, the old master has never liked me. When has Fang Yusheng ever looked directly at me?

“Xiao Sheng…” Fang Mu felt very hurt. If he could choose, he also wanted a proper birth, but he had no choice. His birth was a stain on him. His existence represented destruction and disdain. He had ruined Lisa and Fang Pingjue’s marriage and become the stain of Fang Pingjue’s adultery.

No one would like him.

Fang Mu knew this from a young age. “I didn’t want to be an illegitimate child either.”

Qiao Jiusheng was silent for a long time.

Fang Mu thought that she had been convinced. However, a moment later, Qiao Jiusheng said, “You’re right. People can’t choose their birth.”

Fang Mu was about to rejoice when he heard Qiao Jiusheng say, “But people can choose their way of life.”

In Qiao Jiusheng’s opinion, Fang Mu was just like Qiao Jiuyin. He had courted death but pushed all the blame onto others.

If Fang Yusheng were unhappy with him and secretly schemed against him, then Fang Mu’s actions could still be justified. But Fang Yusheng had just looked down on him. If Fang Mu wasn’t convinced, he could just beat him back. Why did he have to act innocent and play tricks in the dark?

When Fang Mu heard this, his face darkened instantly.

“Xiao Sheng, are you blaming me?”

Qiao Jiusheng did not deny it. “You made my children fatherless.” Having not received any news from Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiusheng became increasingly anxious. All sorts of guesses had surfaced in her mind these few days. She did not dare to think too deeply, afraid that she would not be able to bear it if she thought too much.

Why didn’t she blame Fang Mu?

If Fang Mu stood in front of her now, she would give him a few tight slaps. She would make sure Fang Mu died with Fang Yusheng.

“Xiao Sheng, I’ve had enough hard times.” Fang Mu’s sudden display of weakness stunned Qiao Jiusheng.

“How hard can it be?” Qiao Jiusheng thought about it matter-of-factly. How hard could Fang Mu have been in the past? His mother was a celebrity and he did not lack money. How hard could he have been?

When they were still together in the past, Fang Mu had never told her about his childhood. Qiao Jiusheng did not know that Fang Mu had been sent by Mu Chen to be Cheng Ke’s love. Fang Yusheng knew this, but he had never told her.

Fang Yusheng had his own selfish motives. He was afraid that Qiao Jiusheng would sympathize with Fang Mu, and her heart would soften after she learned about Fang Mu’s childhood.

In the end, everyone in love was selfish.

Fang Mu almost told Qiao Jiusheng what he had experienced when he was young, but he did not dare to. He was afraid that Qiao Jiusheng would find him dirty.

“Xiao Sheng.” Fang Mu did not hear Qiao Jiusheng’s reply, but he knew that Qiao Jiusheng was on the phone. His pale hand tightly gripped the fountain pen on the desk. He murmured, “Xiao Sheng, perhaps in your heart, my body is not clean and my conduct is not clean, but loving you is the cleanest thing I have ever done.”

He really loved her.

He was willing to wait for her to grow up and graduate. He wanted to give his first time to Qiao Jiusheng. He wanted to have children with her and never cheat on her. He would love his children well and shelter them from the wind and rain. He would never let them suffer the hardships he suffered when he was young.

That was why Fang Mu had never touched a girl before the age of 27.

On the night before his wedding, he had thought that he could marry Qiao Jiusheng. He was so happy. He had even spent two to three days learning about the sexual matters between husband and wife, just to not let ‘Qiao Jiusheng’ suffer on the night of the wedding. However, heaven played tricks on him, and Qiao Jiuyin messed up all his plans.

Fang Mu felt guilty for failing to recognize Qiao Jiuyin’s disguise, but he was unwilling to accept it.

Who would have thought that the virtuous and dignified Qiao Jiuyin had a demon in her heart? Qiao Jiuyin had attacked Xiao Sheng for him. It was not as if Fang Mu had never suspected something was wrong during the last Mid-Autumn Festival when Qiao Jiuyin chose pork belly instead of squid.

However, Qiao Jiuyin was too smart. She had said her prenatal taste had drastically changed, dispelling his doubts.

Later on, Fang Mu sensed something was amiss many times, but he did not dare to think too much about it. After all, all he knew was that Qiao Jiuyin had no feelings for him. It was impossible for her to do those things.

When Fang Mu had seen ‘Qi Yunsheng’ dressed in a black gown for Thanksgiving dinner, he had felt a sense of familiarity from her. However, at that time, Qiao Jiuyin, who was acting as Qiao Jiusheng, was beside him. He kept telling himself that ‘Qi Yunsheng’ was not Xiao Sheng.

Yet, he had been unable to stop himself from stealing glances at her. On the one hand, he had felt that he had let his wife down. On the other hand, that woman called Qi Yunsheng had constantly attracted him. That night, Fang Mu had a very painful time.

This was the reason Fang Mu was so angry when he learned the truth from Li Kui at the hospital.

He wished he could kill Qiao Jiuyin!

However, he had some misgivings. At that time, he did not know what Qiao Jiuyin had done to Qiao Jiusheng. He only thought that Qiao Jiusheng had really died in the car accident. He had thought that if he killed Xiao Sheng’s sister, Xiao Sheng would not be able to rest in peace.

At Fang Yusheng and ‘Qi Yunsheng’s’ wedding, when Fang Mu found out that Qi Yunsheng was Qiao Jiusheng, the shock he had felt was unimaginable.

Why did God treat him like this!

What did he do wrong again?

In that relationship, he was also the victim of a lie!

At that moment, Fang Mu had really wanted to kill someone. He had wanted to kill Qiao Jiuyin, Fang Yusheng, and all the people who were the reason he lost Xiao Sheng. He wanted to snatch Xiao Sheng away. He did not mind that she was pregnant with Fang Yusheng’s children. If she insisted on giving birth, he would let her give birth to the children. At most, he would hide the children’s identities and raise them.

All sorts of reasons had led to the current situation.

Fang Mu did not know who to blame!

Qiao Jiuyin was in the wrong, and so was he.

However, he was very indignant and also in great pain.

She was the person he loved and the one who had promised to marry him. In the end, he had no choice but to call her sister-in-law!

Sister-in-law…

Ha…

He wanted her to be his wife, not his sister-in-law!

Qiao Jiusheng remained silent.

Her silence broke Fang Mu’s heart. “Xiao Sheng, even you think that I’m a demon?” Fang Mu laughed at himself and asked, “Is a demon not worthy of love?”

Demons could have love, but Qiao Jiusheng really did not love him anymore. With a sigh, she said to him, “Fang Mu, you didn’t let me down.” However, that relationship was indeed over.

“Fang Mu, forget about me. It’s actually quite easy to forget one person. It’s also very easy to fall in love with another person.” For example, she had spent only 26 years eliminating her feelings for Fang Mu. In less than a year, she had fallen in love with Fang Yusheng.
