The woman was superhuman.

In just half a day, she got Fang Ya a job as a clerk in the neighborhood committee.

During then, most of the neighborhood committee members were women in their forties or fifties or even older.

They mainly did the tasks of organizing and contacting, and a part of their important work was to talk about the daily lives of the people in the area.

These people generally did not have very high academic qualifications, so they were not good at word processing.

Fang Ya happened to be able to help them in this area, so she naturally entered the neighborhood committee to work.

Fang Ya sent Tang Tang to the kindergarten every day, and then reported to the Neighborhood Committee.

At night, after work, she picked Tang Tang back.

The kindergarten was a distance from home. Sister Niu in the Neighborhood Committee saw Fang Ya doing this every day, so she suggested that Fang Ya transfer the child to the Neighborhood Committee’s exclusive nursery.

It could take care of the child nearby and also prevent Fang Ya from running around.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Fang Ya thought about it. In another year, Tang Tang would go to school. This might be a good idea.

However, on the second day of Tang Tang’s school in the nursery, she came crying to Fang Ya.

Fang Ya looked at Tang Tang, her heart aching. “What’s wrong?”

Tang Tang wiped her tears and said, “Little Rock said that I don’t have a father.”

Seeing Tang Tang cry so sadly, Fang Ya could not help but sigh. “You do have a father. Have you forgotten?”

Tang Tang looked at Fang Ya aggrievedly. “Then why doesn’t father come to see us?”

“Your father and I have gone our separate ways. Tang Tang is living with me temporarily.” Fang Ya hugged Tang Tang and explained patiently.

“Father is very busy at work. Tang Tang also knows that.” Fang Ya continued, “He currently has no way to come and see Tang Tang.”

Tang Tang listened with a half-understanding look, but her eyes were still full of grievance.

At that moment, Fang Ya’s memory suddenly returned to her previous life..

That day, Tang Tang had stood at the front door of her house, pointing at Fang Ya’s nose, scolding her for being useless.

She scolded her for marrying an unfaithful man, and she scolded her for leaving home with nothing!

She scolded her for not having money, for not having the ability to support herself, and for still overestimating herself by taking her away!

She scolded her for not having the ability, yet still trying to rely on others for money!

Back then, Fang Ya had deeply doubted herself, even hating herself!

In her previous life, when Tang Tang was young, she constantly hugged herself, often bawling inconsolably.

But at that time, Fang Ya was so busy that she did not have time to listen to her cries. Fang Ya was exhausted from running for her life, and in the end, all she earned was Tang Tang’s hatred!

Fang Ya suddenly thought that maybe she really should give Tang Tang a complete home.

From that day on, Fang Ya no longer resisted the woman’s attempts of introducing her to more men.

...

“Did you hear? That He Feng moved to our district,” Sister Niu said to her colleague, Little Wang.

“Really? Is it that He Feng who was in the newspaper?” Little Wang asked in surprise.

“Of course!” Sister Niu was even more excited and started gossiping. “My nephew saw him move in with his own eyes!”

“That’s really...” Little Wang was about to say, “That’s great”, but she was stopped by Sister Niu.

“I heard that he has a child with him. I really didn’t expect...” Sister Niu shook her head and sighed.

“A child?” Little Wang was puzzled. “I never knew that he got married?”

“Hah!” Sister Niu waved her hand. “How can such a thing be written in the newspapers!”

“He’s a national hero!” Sister Niu raised her voice slightly and said, “Don’t tell me he has to write about his wife being a cuckold while he’s on a mission!”

“Huh? Even he’s not exempt from that?” Little Wang’s voice rose several octaves.

“I heard that he was out on official business all year round. His wife couldn’t stand the loneliness, so she fell in love with one of his brothers!” Sister Niu said and sighed.

“This woman should be soaked in a pig cage!” Little Wang said fiercely.

“After He Feng returned from his meritorious service, that woman knew that the matter couldn’t be hidden anymore, so she left the child behind and ran away.” Sister Niu pursed her lips, and her expression looked very disdainful.

“So He Feng has to care for the child on his own, how...” Little Wang asked anxiously.

“How is he going to carry out his work?” Sister Niu asked the rest of the question for Little Wang.

“Yes, yes!” Little Wang nodded heavily.

“I heard that he has already resigned from his job as a special police officer, and he is currently applying to work at our Public Security Bureau.” Sister Niu raised her eyebrows and said to Little Wang, “At your brother’s place!”

When Little Wang heard this, she became even more excited. “That’s great!”

“Girl, you’re being too obvious...” As sister Niu said this, she looked at Little Wang’s increasingly excited expression.

“Don’t you mind that he’s a second-wife with a child?”

“What’s the big deal!” Little Wang pouted. “I want a hero like He Feng!”

Hearing Little Wang’s bold words, the surrounding ladies and aunties could not help but laugh.

Fang Ya sat in the corner, quietly listening, eyes slowly raised, looking in the direction of Little Wang.
