Chapter 81: Exposed (5)
Qiao JIuyin stayed in the house for more than an hour before leaving.
As soon as Qiao Jiuyin left, all the strange emotions on the witch’s face turned to pity. “There will be retribution for all the evil that has been done.”
Fang Mu was discussing contract matters with a big customer when his phone suddenly vibrated.
“Excuse me.”
After apologizing to the customer, Fang Mu took out his phone and glanced at the message.
The message was from a detective.
“Your wife went to the Green Estate District today and met a witch doctor called the ‘Godmother.’ The ‘Godmother’ is good at psychotherapy related to hypnosis. I had installed a listening device on your wife’s handbag. The contents of her conversation to the witch will be sent to you later.”
When he read the message, Fang Mu’s already-cold eyes turned completely cold.
About an hour later, the detective turned the conversation he had heard into an audio recording and sent it to Fang Mu’s private email.
When Fang Mu heard the conversation, a ruthless aura surged out of him.
***
Fang Mu returned home late at night.
Qiao Jiuyin saw that he had returned so late, and this made her doubtful.
Is the company really that busy?
He’s so busy that he does not even have time to eat with me.
After taking a shower, Fang Mu fell asleep.
The next morning, when Fang Mu was changing his clothes, he suddenly said to Qiao Jiuyin, “Xiao Sheng, the Jiang family’s twins are exactly 18 years old today. The Jiang family sent us an invitation yesterday. Tonight, you will attend their banquet with me.”
“Okay!” Qiao Jiuyin agreed wholeheartedly.
At dusk, Fang Mu changed into his gown and went home to fetch Qiao Jiuyin.
Qiao Jiuyin was dressed in a long pink gown with buttons. The gown was loose, and its front part was made of lace fabric. The collar was diagonally cut and decorated with pearl buttons. The dress looked unique. The loose front part of the gown covered her pregnancy well, so she did not look fat.
To match the beautiful dress, Qiao Jiuyin had especially worn a matching pair of high heels.
She stood at the door in her black coat, waiting for Fang Mu.
Fang Mu took another look at her. According to what he usually did, he should praise her for looking good. However, he just stared at her for a long time. Then, he got out of the car and said, “Get in.”
The faint smile on Qiao Jiuyin’s face disappeared at once.
“Are you unhappy?” she asked.
Fang Mu shook his head. “I’m a little tired from work. I’m fine.”
“Then, shall we not go?”
Fang Mu shook his head.
Not go?
If we do not go, wouldn’t that spoil the show you have so meticulously prepared!
The Jiang family valued the twins’ coming of age ceremony. The venue for the birthday party was the Empire Hotel.
When Fang Mu and Qiao Jiuyin arrived at the hotel, Fang Mu handed the car keys to the attendant.
Qiao Jiuyin looked up at the Empire State Building and suddenly thought of the glorious scene of her marriage to Fang Mu.
That wedding had truly been grand.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Along the way, service staff dressed in beautiful work clothes led the two of them into the banquet hall on the fifth floor.
The Jiang family was one of the three largest families in Binjiang City. They had started by manufacturing electronic goods in the last century. Now, the Jiang family operated in all aspects. The previous head of the Jiang family, Jiang Tao, was a legendary figure admired by all the entrepreneurial youths in Binjiang City.
Today, although it was said to be the twins’ coming-of-age ceremony, it was actually a gathering of the upper-class society to compare with each other. The occasion was also a banquet for young people who were struggling on the road to entrepreneurship and looking for opportunities.
As the main characters of the birthday banquet, Jiang Wei and his sister, Jiang Jie, were appropriately dressed. The young man was dressed in a sapphire blue suit that matched his height. A ruby decorated his chest, and his hair was deliberately combed to look like an adult’s. He did not look funny, but full of spirit. Jiang Jie had worn a sapphire blue strapless short gown. Her long hair fell over her shoulders. She was wearing the latest gemstone bracelet introduced by the jewelry family for the winter of Crown for Love. She had become the center of attention for the little girls present at the hall.
“Nephew Fang, you’re here.”
Jiang Bo led the pair of twins to Fang Mu.
Although Fang Mu was proud, he was not a fool who looked down on everyone. He nodded at Jiang Bo and shouted, “Uncle Jiang.”
A young man and a young woman beside Jiang Bo shouted at the same time, “Brother Fang Mu, you’re here. Did you prepare any gifts for us?”
“You’re so rude.” Jiang Bo patted the heads of the son and daughter respectively. Although he was reprimanding the children, his eyes were filled with smiles.
