Chapter 319: Midnight Bell

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After that incident, there seemed to be a subtle change between He Feng’s aunt and Fang Ya.

She no longer aggressively ordered Fang Ya around, and no longer seemed to question if Fang Ya was reliable as a mother and wife.

Fang Ya still had to make the meals that she assigned her every day.

She also remained critical of Fang Ya’s cooking, which was still unsightly.

However, the atmosphere between the two seemed to have become much more harmonious. Even Shao Xiang would occasionally chat with He Feng’s aunt.

He Feng’s heart was finally relieved.

One day, He Feng and Fang Ya were in their room, discussing about what to do on their day off tomorrow and taking their family to the park to play for a day.

During this period, the case He Feng was working on had basically entered the investigation stage. They could only wait quietly for results.

As for Fang Ya, her work and project investment had also gradually gotten on the right track.

Fang Ya believed that during this period of time, everyone had a lot of pressure in their hearts. Going out to play could help them relax.

This was especially so for He Peng. Although there was no pressure on his schoolwork, he still had more work to do than his peers. It was good to be able to relax.

He Feng hesitated about what to do if his aunt refused to go out to play.

Fang Ya did not mind it. She only said that she would ask her once and not take any rejection to heart.

The two talked for a while and then went to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Fang Ya’s phone suddenly rang.

Fang Ya was shocked. She picked up the phone, but there was no sound.

Fang Ya frowned, looked at the phone, and then hung up.

In less than half an hour, Fang Ya’s phone rang again.

She picked up the phone, but the other party still did not say anything.

Fang Ya stared at the phone for a long time, fully awake.

He Feng was also woken up by the sound of the phone. He looked at Fang ya and asked, “Who is it?”

As soon as the other party heard He Feng’s voice, they hung up the phone.

Fang Ya looked at her phone again, shook her head, and said, “I don’t know.”

After hanging up the phone, Fang Ya turned off her phone.

He Feng looked at Fang Ya and asked with some doubt, “Do you know who it is?”

Fang Ya did not respond, only softly replied, “Sleep! We’ll talk about it tomorrow!”

He Feng replied with a hum, gently pulled Fang Ya into his arms, and fell into a deep sleep again.

Fang Ya nestled in He Feng’s arms, listening to He Feng’s heartbeat, but her brows were furrowed slightly.

The next morning, He Feng woke up before six o’clock. However, he did not see Fang Ya by his side.

He walked into the living room and saw that Fang Ya was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

“Why are you up so early?” He Feng walked to the kitchen and helped Fang Ya.

Fang Ya checked the condition of the porridge and answered casually, “I couldn’t sleep, so I got up to prepare breakfast.”

“Is it because of yesterday’s phone call?” He Feng looked at Fang ya and asked, “Do you know who it was?”

Fang Ya put a few steamed buns into the steamer. After covering the lid, she replied, “It’s probably Tang Fu.”

“Tang Fu?” He Feng looked at Fang Ya in surprise.

“Did he look for you again?” He Feng took out the eggs from the fridge and handed them to Fang Ya.

Fang Ya replied with a hum and said, “He called me a few days ago, but I ignored him.”

“He could do something like making a phone call in the middle of the night.” Fang Ya took the egg and put it into the pot to boil.

“What would he be up to?” He Feng leaned against the counter and looked at Fang Ya.

“Why did you let him out this time?” Fang Ya turned to look at He Feng.

He Feng paused for a moment before saying, “There was not enough evidence.”

“Not enough evidence?” Fang Ya looked at He Feng suspiciously. “Are you sure you’re not throwing him out as bait to reel in a big catch?”

When He Feng heard Fang Ya’s question, he hesitated for a moment before saying, “Yes!”

Fang Ya smiled in understanding. “I thought so.”

“I won’t ask about other things, but if he keeps harassing me or try harming Tang Tang, I will....” as Fang Ya spoke, she gritted her teeth.
