Chapter 121 - A Nightmare
Chapter 121: A Nightmare
Fang Ya stayed with He Feng until late at night.
After Li Tong got off work, He Feng took him off the team and made him a chauffeur.
However, Li Tong had no regrets about being the chauffeur.
Fang Ya opened the door and got out of the car. She said to Li Tong, “Sorry to trouble you!”
Li Tong waved his hand as if he was hesitating.
Fang Ya did not rush him. She just waited quietly.
After a long time, Li Tong finally seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Fang Ya and said, “Sister-in-law, that, Wang Xu, she…”
“Why? Do you want me to help you ask Wang Xu out?” Fang Ya said with a smile on her lips.
Li Tong stared at Fang Ya in shock. After a long while, he said, “As expected of my sister-in-law. She is much sharper than my brother Feng!”
Fang Ya covered her mouth and smiled. “You want me to help you, and you’re still saying bad things about your brother Feng behind his back?”
Li Tong quickly slapped himself. “That’s my bad!”
“Sister-in-law, please!” Li Tong clasped his hands together and bowed to Fang Ya again and again.
Fang Ya looked at Li Tong’s appearance and said, “I can help you make an appointment, but whether this matter will succeed or not depends on you!”
Li Tong immediately smiled. “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. As long as she comes out, I won’t let her go back!”
“Huh?” Fang Ya raised her voice and glared at Li Tong.
Li Tong immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing. He heavily patted his mouth. “I didn’t mean it that way!”
“I promise to send her home safely whether she agrees to or not!” Li Tong immediately raised his hand and swore.
Only then did Fang Ya recover her smile. “Alright! I’ll inform you about the time and place separately.”
Li Tong looked at Fang Ya with gratitude. “Sister-in-law, you and my brother Feng are simply a perfect match!”
“Enough! If you want to hear it, go and coax Wang Xu!” Fang Ya waved her hand. “Be careful on the road!”
After seeing Li Tong’s car leave, Fang Ya pushed the door open and entered the courtyard.
In the courtyard, the locust tree sapling had gradually grown to the height of Fang Ya’s waist.
Fang Ya looked at the sapling and stood in a daze.
He Peng walked out of the room. When he saw Fang Ya standing in the courtyard, he walked over. “Ma… Ma, why are you here?”
Hearing He Peng’s still unfamiliar form of address, Fang Ya raised her hand and gently stroked He Peng’s hair.
“Standing here thinking about something! Why aren’t you sleeping?” Fang Ya looked at He Peng strangely.
He Peng lowered his head and sat down on a rock beside the locust tree sapling.
Fang Ya picked up a rock from the side and sat beside He Peng.
Fang Ya did not rush He Peng, but waited quietly.
“I just had a nightmare…” He Peng said softly, his voice trembling slightly.
From He Peng’s voice, it could be heard that he was really afraid.
Fang Ya reached out and gently pulled He Peng into her arms. “Can you tell me what nightmare you had?”
He Peng was in Fang Ya’s arms. He sniffed and said, “I dreamed… dreamed that daddy died!”
Fang Ya heard He Peng’s slightly sobbing voice and sighed. “It’s okay, nightmares never come true!”
“But, daddy hasn’t been back for so long!” He Peng still looked at Fang Ya with some worry.
Fang Ya lowered her head and smiled at He Peng. “Didn’t you just talk to daddy on the phone yesterday?”
“But…” He Peng was still a little hesitant.
Fang Ya gently hugged He Peng. “Don’t worry, your daddy is very good!”
“I just saw him,” Fang Ya continued to comfort He Peng.
“Really?”He Peng’s eyes were filled with tears.
Fang Ya nodded. “Yes! The next time I see him, I’ll ask him to come back and see you, okay?”
He Peng nodded heavily before returning to his room with Fang Ya.
Fang Ya watched He Peng fall asleep before closing the door and walking out.
After returning to her room, Fang Ya took out her phone and sent a message to He Feng. “He Peng misses you.”
