Chapter 264: Shao Xiang’s Worries

Fang Ya looked at Mingxia’s troubled expression and smiled.

“Don’t worry, take your time. The first thing we’ll do is to let you familiarize yourself with how to use these skills.” As Fang Ya spoke, she sat down beside Mingxia.

Mingxia quickly held the book tightly in her hands and stared at Fang Ya with sparkling eyes.

Fang Ya looked at Mingxia and asked, “Do you trust me?”

Mingxia nodded heavily without any hesitation.

“What about Wang Xu?” Fang Ya asked again.

Mingxia still did not hesitate. She nodded.

Fang Ya’s smile widened and she continued, “Then if I arrange for you to help Wang Xu out first, there won’t be any problems, right?”

Mingxia nodded seriously with an unusually firm expression. “No problem! I promise to complete the mission!”

Fang Ya laughed with even more mirth, and could not help but shake her head. “Don’t rush! I haven’t finished speaking!”

Hearing that, Mingxia looked at Fang Ya somewhat nervously, as if worried that Fang Ya would change her arrangements at any time.

Fang Ya could see Mingxia’s nervousness and gently patted her hand to let her relax.

“You still have a lot of things to learn now. If you start working with Wang Xu now, both of you will be very tired,” Fang Ya looked at Mingxia seriously and said earnestly.

“So, I hope you can learn while watching. Follow Wang Xu and take it one step at a time.” As Fang Ya said that, she gently squeezed Mingxia’s hand, as if giving her some strength.

Mingxia knew Fang Ya’s intention. Although she was still a little unwilling, she still nodded seriously. “I’ll listen to you!”

Fang Ya knew that with Mingxia’s personality, letting her take it one step at a time was simply torture for her.

However, doing this was not only the best way to nurture Mingxia, it was also the way to allow her to truly grow up.

Mingxia returned to her room and waited for Fang Ya and Wang Xu to make the arrangements for the next day. After that, she could also show off her skills.

Fang Ya walked back to the sofa and sat down. She saw Shao Xiang walking out of her room.

“Mingxia went back?” Shao Xiang asked when she saw a slightly weary Fang Ya.

Fang Ya nodded and stood up to greet Shao Xiang. “Can’t you sleep? Do you want some hot milk?”

Shao Xiang nodded and walked towards the kitchen.

Fang Ya followed her in. One of them held a cup while the other took out some milk from the fridge.

“Have you been very tired recently?” Shao Xiang looked at Fang Ya’s complexion, which did not look too good.

Fang Ya shook her head and said, “No, it’s just that there have been a lot of things recently and I need to adjust.”

Shao Xiang replied with a hum before saying, “Don’t wear yourself out.”

Fang Ya nodded and heated the milk for the two of them. Then, she carried the cup and followed Shao Xiang to the dining table to sit down.

Shao Xiang held the cup of hot milk and hesitated for a moment before saying, “I received a call from my eldest brother.”

Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang in surprise. “When? Did Uncle take the initiative to contact you?”

Shao Xiang paused for a moment before continuing, “Yes! During the day, I received a call from home.”

Fang Ya was not surprised, because the contact information left at Shao Xiang’s hometown had been her home number.

For this reason, Fang Ya had specially transferred her phone number to Shao Xiang when they moved.

Shao Xiang stared at the milk in the cup. She bit her lip and continued, “I know he resents me, but…”

Fang Ya could see the sorrow in Shao Xiang’s eyes. It seemed that Shao Xiang’s brother’s call this time had not been a pleasant conversation.

Fang Ya did not rush her. She just quietly waited for Shao Xiang to gather her thoughts.

Shao Xiang took a deep breath and said to Fang Ya, “If, I mean if, if my relatives want to ask you for help…”

Fang Ya listened to Shao Xiang’s tone, as if there were some things that Fang Ya did not know.

Shao Xiang thought for a while and then sighed. “Forget it! It’s nothing!”

Fang Ya did not pursue the matter.

She knew that Shao Xiang’s struggle would probably affect her, or even cause harm to her.

Shao Xiang silently drank the milk in one gulp and placed the cup in the basin.

Fang Ya followed her and gently hugged Shao Xiang from behind. “Mom, if you need me to do anything, just tell me…”

“Maybe we can find more solutions!” Fang Ya continued and hugged Shao Xiang tightly. “Don’t let yourself take on all the responsibility.”

Shao Xiang sighed deeply and nodded. “I got it! Let me think about it again!”

Fang Ya did not try to persuade her. She just let Shao Xiang go and took the cup from her hand. She washed the cups and put them to the side.

After Shao Xiang returned to her room, Fang Ya turned off the lights in the living room and returned to her room.

She leaned back down the bed, picked up her phone and called He Feng.

It was unknown what He Feng was currently busy with. He was interrupted from time to time during the conversation with Fang Ya.

Fang Ya also just want to talk with He Feng about recent things at home.. But when she found that He Feng was so busy, she directly hung up the phone.
