Chapter 41 - Trust

Fang Ya packed up her things and went home. She bumped into He Feng at the door.

“Why are you standing here? Aren’t you going in?” Fang Ya looked at He Feng with some confusion.

“I have something to tell you.” He Feng looked like he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

Fang Ya saw his expression and knew that this was important.

She nodded and said, “Walk with me!”

The two of them walked along the riverbank not far away. For a moment, they were silent.

Fang Ya was not in a hurry. She knew that He Feng was not a hesitant person. He must have found it difficult to talk about this matter.

After a long time, He Feng seemed to have finally gotten rid of his hesitation. “I have a mission that might require me to go abroad for two years…”

Fang Ya stood still and looked at He Feng silently.

“Can you…” He Feng frowned and gritted his teeth before saying, “Can you marry me? Before I leave?”

Fang Ya did not answer immediately.

He Feng quickly added, “I’m not just looking for a stable place for He Peng. I think you’re really suitable for me.”

Fang Ya saw He Feng’s anxious look and could not help but laugh. “Yes! I’m willing!”

He Feng wanted to say something else, but Fang Ya reached out and held his hand. “I know what you’re thinking. I would be more than happy to take care of He Peng.

“It has not been long, but we get along very well. Even if I don’t marry you, I’ll take good care of him,” Fang Ya continued.

“So, I’ll marry you only because I’m willing.” After saying that, Fang Ya’s gaze was fixed on He Feng’s face.

He Feng’s slightly tanned face suddenly turned red.

He was a person who was used to wandering outside. Even if he was already married and had children, he did not have much time to develop a relationship with his ex-wife.

This was the first time He Feng had expressed his feelings so directly.

Fang Ya looked at He Feng’s somewhat embarrassed look and immediately thought that he was a little cute.

“Don’t worry, I will take good care of you!” He Feng gave his promise somewhat stiffly.

“I believe in you!” Fang Ya’s smile became even sweeter and gentler, causing He Feng to be stunned for a moment.

After confirming each other’s feelings, He Feng felt a lot more at ease.

He realized that he had been able to successfully solve his recent cases after chatting with Fang Ya.

Each time, Fang Ya would inspire him with a brand new angle to think about, allowing the progress of the case to suddenly take off.

He Feng did not want to think about the reason behind this. He only firmly believed that Fang Ya had a somewhat magical touch when it came to solving cases!

“Fang Ya, I might not be able to keep in touch with you when I go abroad this time.” He Feng held Fang Ya’s hand and gripped it affirmatively.

Fang Ya nodded. “I understand.”

Fang Ya already knew precisely why He Feng had to go.

It was precisely because of this very incident that led to her hellish experiences in her previous life.

“He Feng, if you believe me…” Fang Ya hesitated. She did not know if she would make He Feng think that she was a lunatic by saying this.

He Feng looked at Fang Ya seriously. “Tell me! I believe you!”

He Feng’s trust gave Fang Ya some comfort.

She turned to face He Feng. “I can’t tell you how I know this, but please believe me, the person you’re looking for is not in America.”

When He Feng heard Fang Ya’s words, he was first taken aback, but excitement quickly replaced that sensation.

His hunch was right, Fang Ya really knew!

He looked at Fang Ya seriously, his eyes wide open to capture the slightest change in her expression. “Then can you tell me where the person I’m looking for is?”

Fang Ya’s expression became a little awkward.

She paused before saying, “I’m not sure now. I only know that he will appear in Port City in three months.”

He Feng looked at Fang Ya’s expression. After a long while, he let out a sigh of relief. “I believe you! I will send someone else to Port City to keep an eye on him.”

“Thank you for telling me what you know!” He Feng thanked her sincerely.

Fang Ya was a little nervous. “Do you really believe me?”

He Feng grabbed Fang Ya’s hand tightly. “I believe you, just like you believe me!”

Hearing He Feng’s words, Fang Ya’s tense heart finally relaxed.

Although the two of them had their own thoughts, they still had trust in each other and enjoyed the rare opportunities where they could spend time together.

The next day, He Feng and Fang Ya rushed to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.

The two of them went home and had a simple meal with their family. The marriage was considered official.

Although everything was simple, it was still a little too simple.

He Feng secretly swore in his heart that after this case was over, he would definitely give Fang Ya a perfect wedding!
