Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The three of them sat down on the sofa. Shao Xiang thought for a moment before looking at Fang Ya and He Feng. “I know that you guys plan to investigate the matter of my eldest brother.
“However, there are some things that I’m not very clear about. I’ve already told Fang Ya everything that I know.” Shao Xiang said with a sigh.
Fang Ya glanced at He Feng and nodded. Then, she said, “You have told me enough. It’s just that the matter of second uncle being poisoned may also involve some other matters.”
He Feng looked deeply at Fang Ya before asking Shao Xiang, “Mother, I know watching this is tearing you apart, but if we don’t investigate it thoroughly, I’m afraid more people will only be harmed.”
Shao Xiang knew what He Feng said was true, but she could not do anything about it.
“Please don’t let me get in the way! I’ll help in whatever way I can!” Shao Xiang no longer had the strength to think about anything and only uttered those words, more to herself than them.
Fang Ya reached out and gently held Shao Xiang’s hand. “Don’t worry, everything will soon be over!”
Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya and smiled bitterly. Then, she stood up and said, “You guys rest early.”
After Shao Xiang said that, she turned around and walked to her room.
He Feng and Fang Ya stood up and watched Shao Xiang leave.
It was not until Shao Xiang’s room door was closed before Fang Ya let out a deep sigh and leaned against the sofa.
“How did things turn out like this?” Fang Ya’s tone was filled with incredulity.
“The family that she has always yearned for has turned out to be brothers killing brothers!” Fang Ya could not help but shiver. She had never felt such fear before.
He Feng also sat beside Fang Ya and gently held her in his arms. “Humans will always remain human, for better or for worse.
“It has been that way since ancient history,” He Feng said. For some reason, he sounded somewhat melancholic.
When Fang Ya heard He Feng’s words, Li Tong’s figure instantly appeared in her mind.
If one day, Li Tong and He Feng turned against each other, how would he react?
Fang Ya remained silent, while He Feng fell deep into his own thoughts.
The next day, Shao Xiang walked out of the room, her eyes slightly swollen.
Fang Ya knew that she must have cried the whole night.
In such a situation, Fang Ya really did not know how to comfort her. She could only stand by the side and quietly accompany Shao Hua.
Because she had promised Shao Hua, many things on Fang Ya’s side had been affected to a certain extent.
After gathering Wang Xu and the others for a meeting in the old house, Fang Ya told everyone that she needed to put the investment project on hold for the time being.
Fang Ya did not tell them the specific reasons. She only said that the project could not be launched for the time being and hoped that everyone could find some other project resources to make plans.
Wang Xu vaguely knew of Fang Ya’s difficulties, so she did not ask further.
Mingxia and He Kun looked at each other. They knew that they did not have much say, so they simply listened to Fang Ya’s instructions.
However, Chu Qi had always had his own opinions. They had agreed beforehand that Chu Qi was free to take an active role in the planning process.
Now that Fang Ya was withdrawing, it was simply an act of insult and betrayal to Chu Qi.
Chu Qi left in a huff, ignoring the calls from Fang Ya and the others.
Fang Ya looked at Chu Qi’s departing figure helplessly, but she also knew that his anger was justified.
Wang Xu gently placed a hand on Fang Ya’s arm. “Sister Ya, it’s okay. He’s just angry now.”
“I’ll go talk to him later. He’ll understand.” Wang Xu smiled at Fang Ya and comforted her.
Fang Ya looked at Wang Xu gratefully. She knew that Wang Xu’s trust in her was her biggest motivation at the moment.
After resolving the investment issue, Fang Ya planned to start working on the shop.
Although she had promised Shao Hua to help him with the investment, Fang Ya had not promised to give up her shop just like that.
With her way to the real estate realm barred, Fang Ya turned to look at other industries.
