Chapter 12 - Moving Houses

nFang Ya took the divorce certificate and went to Shao Xiang's house to pick Tang Tang up.
nShao Xiang looked at Fang Ya's indifferent expression and could not guess what had happened to her.
nShe hesitated for a moment before asking,
"Why don't we have dinner here today?
"
nFang Ya looked at Shao Xiang and nodded slowly.
nAfter dinner, Shao Xiang walked Fang Ya and her daughter out of the alley and said,
"No matter which road you take in the future, remember to come back for dinner more often.
"
nFang Ya smiled at Shao Xiang.
"Okay!
"
nTang Tang happily waved at Shao Xiang.
"Bye, Ms. Fang!
"
nAfter seeing the mother and daughter off, Shao Xiang gently wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and walked back home.
nAfter bringing Tang Tang home, Fang Ya took out the luggage that she had prepared beforehand, held Tang Tang's hand, and walked out of the house.
nUncle Tang wanted to stop her, but he knew that there was no meaning at this time.
nHe took out a bunch of keys and said to Fang Ya,
"This is my family's old residence. If you don't mind...
"
nFang Ya shook her head and rejected Uncle Tang's kind offer.
"I've already booked the hotel. Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Tang.
"
nUncle Tang sighed and watched Fang Ya leave the Tang family with her daughter.
nFang Ya brought Tang Tang to the hotel that she had booked beforehand. Ever since she had been reborn, Fang Ya had put much thought into many matters.
nShe was no longer the foolish woman who simply accepted everything. She needed to live well for her daughter and for herself!
nWhen they arrived at the hotel, Tang Tang found the whole situation and room so fresh and new that she grew too excited to sleep.
nFang Ya was not in a hurry either. She patiently coaxed Tang Tang until she fell into a deep sleep.
nLooking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
nFang Ya washed up briefly, leaned against the sofa, and quietly closed her eyes.
nSince her rebirth, she had been making these arrangements without stopping.
nShe hoped that through her own efforts, she could escape the painful fate of her previous life and let her daughter live a better life.
nTang Fu was very determined to get a divorce. Therefore, after signing the agreement, he liquidated two-thirds of his assets into cash and gave it to Fang Ya.
nFang Ya signed the agreement willingly and did not want to be entangled with Tang Fu any longer.
nFang Ya decided to rest in the hotel for the day. Tomorrow, she would find a suitable place for a single mother and daughter to stay.
nFang Ya fell asleep in a daze. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Tang Tang lying in front of her, blinking her eyes.
n
"Mom, aren't we going home?
"Tang Tang asked in confusion.
nHer mother had taken her here at night. She had been very happy and curious. But, this was not home...
nFang Ya smiled gently and took her daughter into her arms.
"Tang Tang, be good. We'll go look for our home after daybreak...
"
n
"Look?
" Tang Tang did not quite understand what her mother meant. She blinked her eyes in confusion and looked at her.
nFang Ya's smile deepened.
"Yes, Tang Tang will be with mom forever in the future, okay?
"
n
"Then... What about dad?
"Tang Tang showed a confused expression.
nTang Tang did not rely on her dad very much because he would always throw a tantrum at her.
nBut, there should be a dad at home, right?
n
"Also, what about grandpa butler?
"Tang Tang asked more seriously.
nShe could not bear to leave the kindly old butler!
nFang Ya held Tang Tang tightly in her arms.
"From now on, there will only be the two of us in our home.
"
nTang Tang's expression became somewhat conflicted. She thought for a moment before asking,
"Can Ms. Fang be with us?
"
nFang Ya was stunned for a moment. After thinking seriously for a moment, she said,
"Perhaps...
"
nHearing Fang Ya's words, Tang Tang seemed to have finally calmed down and fell asleep again in a daze.
nFang Ya put Tang Tang back on the bed and laid down beside her.
n
"Go to sleep. When you wake up, everything will be fine.
" As Fang Ya spoke, she reached out and gently stroked her daughter's forehead.
nThe next day, Fang Ya sent Tang Tang to Shao Xiang's residence.
nTang Tang and Shao Xiang were both very happy. Shao Xiang had specially prepared delicious food for Tang Tang, as well as a small pillow and blanket for her afternoon nap.
nFang Ya felt at ease when she placed her daughter at Shao Xiang's place. She still had many things to do.
nFang Ya found herself a real estate agent and found a decent-sized lot in the suburbs. It was not particularly huge. There were four rooms and a separate bathroom.
nAlthough there was still a large gap between it and the ideal home in Fang Ya's mind, Fang Ya knew that she had returned to 20 years ago. She could not look at it with her current eyes.
nAfter tucking away the house key, Fang Ya simply tidied up the interior of the house. Fortunately, the house had been occupied recently and did not require much tidying up and decorating.
nAfter Fang Ya had prepared everything, she went back to Shao Xiang's residence to fetch Tang Tang back.
nShao Xiang looked at Fang Ya's somewhat tired expression and asked,
"Have you been doing anything recently?
"
nFang Ya did not intend to say anything more. She only smiled faintly.
"Nothing!
"
nShao Xiang knew that it was not her place to ask any further, so she fell silent.
nShe brought Tang Tang to the small lot. Tang Tang was immediately attracted by the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
nFang Ya looked at Tang Tang's carefree appearance and felt a lot more at ease.
