Fang Ya was not interested in engaging with Lin Mei anymore, so she pulled Wang Xu away from Lin Mei again.

Lin Mei’s hands were tightly twisted together, and her eyes were full of hatred.

She was about to chase after them again when the shop assistant rushed out of the shop. “Mrs. Tang, these clothes...”

Lin Mei glared at the shop assistant and vented her anger on the shop assistant. “What? Are you afraid that I’ll run away with your clothes on?”

The shop assistant did not dare to say anything. She lowered her head and muttered, “I’ll help you pack your clothes.”

“Humph! I don’t want them anymore!” Lin Mei fiercely took her original clothes from the shop assistant.

“It’s bad luck to buy your shop’s clothes!” Lin Mei said and rushed into the fitting room with her clothes.

Wang Xu was dragged by Fang Ya to the other side of the mall before they gradually stopped.

Wang Xu did not dare to speak and could only steal glances to discern Fang Ya’s expression.

Fang Ya had long noticed Wang Xu’s small movements. She turned to look at Wang Xu and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’m fine!”

Only then did Wang Xu slowly let out a breath.

“How can that woman be so arrogant! If you hadn’t stopped me just now, I would have definitely torn her mouth apart!” Wang Xu’s face was full of anger.

Fang Ya smiled. “She’s just a woman depending on a man to survive. Don’t take it to heart.”

“I don’t care about the man she values,” Fang Ya said, her eyes full of determination.

“Sister Ya, for the first time, I feel...” Wang Xu stared at Fang Ya with stars in her eyes. “You’re so awesome!”

Fang Ya smiled and scratched Wang Xu’s nose. “Silly girl! What are you talking about!”

“Aren’t you also living on your own!” Fang Ya looked at Wang Xu seriously.

Wang Xu shook her head. “It’s different!”

“I feel that if I were in your position, I definitely wouldn’t be able to pull myself together so quickly!” Wang Xu said seriously.

Fang Ya sighed. “So what if I don’t pull myself together?”

“I believe in He Feng. He will definitely do whatever he promises me.” Fang Ya’s expression was full of determination.

“I only have to do my part, and do it well!” Fang Ya said mysteriously.

Wang Xu looked confused.

However, she still nodded solemnly. “You and Captain He have my support! I believe in you!”

Fang Ya smiled and held Wang Xu’s hand. “Alright! Don’t fret about it too much! You promised to accompany me to buy clothes!”

Wang Xu smacked her head. “That’s right! There’s still work to do!”

The two of them walked around the mall twice and finally bought a set of clothes that matched Fang Ya’s preferences.

To express her gratitude, Fang Ya took Wang Xu to a small shop outside the mall for a meal.

Wang Xu ate a piece of peach blossom crisp with a satisfied expression. “Sister Ya, if you didn’t bring me here, I wouldn’t even know about these delicious dishes!”

Fang Ya smiled and looked at the plate of desserts thoughtfully.

Wang Xu saw that Fang Ya seemed a little disappointed, so he guessed that she was probably thinking of Tang Tang.

Wang Xu did not dare to say anything and just waited for Fang Ya to digest her emotions.

A moment later, Fang Ya looked at Wang Xu and smiled. “Whenever I brought Tang Tang out in the past, she never failed to stop here. She liked the desserts in this shop the most.

“She could eat two pieces of this peach blossom crisp every time!” Fang Ya said as she reached out to pick up another piece of peach blossom crisp and put it into her mouth.

Wang Xu reached out to hold Fang Ya’s hand. “Sister Ya, don’t worry. Tang Tang will be back soon!”

Fang Ya nodded with a smile. “I know!”

The two of them ate and drank their fill before taking the things they had bought and taking the bus home.

When they reached home, it was already dark.

Fang Ya carried the newly bought clothes into the yard.

He Peng was fiddling with something in the yard.

Fang Ya went over to take a look and saw He Peng holding a small sapling and inserting it into a newly dug pit on the ground.

Fang Ya looked at the twig in confusion and thought that it seemed a little familiar. “What are you doing?”

He Peng was startled by Fang Ya. He turned his head and saw that it was Fang Ya. He stood up and walked to Fang Ya with a smile. “Aunt Fang, look, this is my gift to you!”

Fang Ya looked at the sapling that had already been inserted into the pit. “What is this?”

He Peng wiped the sweat on his face with his hands that were stained with mud and said, “I asked Grandpa Chen from the plantation for the sapling of the Locust Tree.”

“I see that you like that locust tree very much! Do you like this gift?” He Peng wiped the sweat off his face and immediately turned into a little kitten.

Fang Ya was touched when she saw He Peng’s earnest face.

“I like it very much! I like it very much! Thank you!” Fang Ya said and hugged He Peng into her arms.

He Peng struggled. “Aunt Fang, I’m very dirty! Your clothes are clean...”

Fang Ya gently hugged He Peng. “No! Not at all! I’m very happy!”
