Chapter 107: Why?
That night, not long after Xiao Xia left, Fang Ya received a call from He Feng.
“We’ve already checked. The ones who went to cause trouble for Lin bin were a bunch of hooligans who wanted to collect debts,” He Feng explained the situation simply.
“Collect debts? Lin Bin isn’t someone who would go into debt!” Fang Ya said in disbelief.
“That’s right! This debt wasn’t owed by him. It was owed by one of the parties he represented,” He Feng continued.
“The other party failed to collect the debt, so he put the blame on Lin Bin,” He Feng added.
“So, this matter has nothing to do with Tang Fu?” Fang Ya asked with uncertainty.
He Feng pondered for a moment and said after a while, “From the surface, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with him, but…”
“But?” Fang Ya could hear the hidden meaning in He Feng’s words.
He Feng nodded and said, “This matter is definitely not as simple as it looks on the surface.
“I’ve already sent people to keep an eye on this matter,” He Feng continued, “At least Lin Bin’s life will not be in danger for the time being.”
When Fang Ya heard this, her heart immediately felt a little more at ease.
“Then, I’ll leave Lin Bin’s matter to you,” Fang Ya said to He Feng. “He has helped me a lot. I don’t want to see anything happen to him.”
He Feng’s voice came slowly. “Don’t worry! I won’t let anything happen to him!”
After hanging up the phone, Fang Ya sat alone in front of the table in the living room in a daze.
Shao Xiang pushed the door open and walked in. “What’s wrong? Something on your mind?”
Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang. She thought about it for a moment before asking, “Why did you let me marry Tang Fu back then?”
This was perhaps the biggest question between Fang Ya and Shao Xiang.
Even though their relationship had warmed up, this matter was still a knot in their hearts.
Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya and did not speak for a long time.
Just when Fang Ya thought Shao Xiang would not answer her, Shao Xiang spoke again.
“Although Tang Fu is a nouveau riche,” Shao Xiang started slowly.
“He really is rich! At that time, he really liked you!” As Shao Xiang spoke, her eyes drooped as she stared at her hands.
“I married two husbands, both of whom were poor.”Shao Xiang smiled bitterly.
“One was a compulsive gambler, and the other one was not very capable.” Shao Xiang’s tone was a little erratic as she spoke.
Fang Ya did not interrupt her and continued to listen to her story.
“I thought that perhaps it would be best to marry a rich man in this lifetime.” Shao Xiang said as she looked up at Fang Ya.
“I used your betrothal gifts to marry off your brother, are you still angry at me for that?” Shao Xiang asked Fang Ya.
Fang Ya shook her head and smiled. “It’s all in the past.”
“At that time, the family really didn’t have any money.” Shao Xiang had a bitter smile on her face.
“Your brother is also an incompetent person. Without your betrothal gifts, he probably wouldn’t have been able to marry a wife in this lifetime.” Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya with an apologetic expression.
“I know I’ve let you down.” Shao Xiang said and sighed.
“I’ve never expected you to forgive me, and I’ve never imagined that we could talk like this.” As Shao Xiang spoke, the corners of her eyes gradually became moist.
Fang Ya reached out and gently placed Shao Xiang’s hand on the table. “It’s all in the past. We’ll be fine.”
Shao Xiang nodded and smiled gratefully at Fang Ya. “If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t be able to live the good life I have now.
“Although your brother is still a good-for-nothing, at least he’s not as idle as he used to be.” Shao Xiang revealed a satisfied smile.
“Even if you want me to die now, I’ll be at ease.” Shao Xiang said with a relieved smile on her face.
When Fang Ya saw Shao Xiang’s expression, she immediately felt a little heartache.
The two women spoke throughout the night.
Fang Ya seemed to have thought through many things in an instant, and many of the grievances from the past had also vanished.
People always had to look forward!
The current her was no longer the miserable woman from her previous life!
She knew that there were many people who loved her, and there were also many people who were worthy of her love!
Finally, Fang Ya’s vacation ended.
Early in the morning, Fang Ya wore a simple, formal outfit and took a bus to report to the district government.
Looking at the constantly changing scenery outside the window, Fang Ya felt that everything seemed unfamiliar yet familiar.
Familiar streets, familiar city. The difference was in her current state of mind.
Fang Ya looked at the scenery outside the window that was constantly retreating, her eyes looking at the road ahead…
The future of life was waiting for her!
She would meet any challenge!
