"I'll text you up—maybe we have the dinner later," she added, Pan An, already looking at the time on his wrist watch, seeing that he has 10 minutes before his next class.

"Alright. I'll be going then, Wang Fang. Thank you so much for the talk."

"Sure! Anytime."

With that, Pan An left the office. With him immediately getting his phone to talk to his secretary about searching Wang Fang's information, Wang Fang also got her phone and directly talked to their family secretary, instructing her without even saying hello.

"Block any necessary means of research on our family. ASAP! If someone by the name of Pan An is trying to search me, let me know immediately."

Without even saying good bye, the call ended, making Wang Fang furrow her brows as she blankly stared at the door.

'This Pan An… he may be more than just a professor, but then again… he doesn't seem to be a bad guy. Still, though. I want a lowkey life. I wouldn't want anyone to know about my family.'

As Wang Fang put down the phone on her desk, she sighed and ran her hand through her hair, shaking her head as she was now thinking that Pan An, her newly gained friend, may have been from an affluent family, too, with the question that he threw on her.

"Mm… maybe I should not overthink," Wang Fang talked to herself, sighing. "He may only be curious… but it's better to be safe than sorry."

Wang Fang didn't really like people knowing about her background.

Yes, she is not ashamed of her family and is indeed fact proud of them.

However, with her working as a librarian in a university, she wouldn't want people to make an issue of this, making their family a talk among the crowd.

With her not even blood related to the main family, she wouldn't want to be the talk of the whole city. Her mother remarried and it was a happy marriage with her husband accepting her of who she is. She wouldn't want them to further talk about the family and just stay lowkey.

As she let out another sigh, her sister came to her mind again. With her furrowing her brows and with her remembering how her mother is getting those bad dreams of the past every now and then, she couldn't help but call her mother.

As she got the phone and dialed her number, the call connected on the second ring, a cheery voice sounding on the other end of the line.

"Wang Fang, dearie~! Is something wrong?"

"Mama…" Wang Fang smiled, feeling slightly better that her mother sounds good this morning. "I just called to check in. How are you?"

"Oh, I am alright, child. I am having tea at the garden. I will soon be taking the dog for a walk in our maze!"

"Oh, alright, mama," Wang Fang said, further relieved that her mother is doing things to cope with the past that's been worrying her. "I was wondering… if you want someone to watch over the old house where we lived since it has been untouched for many years?"

With Wang Fang suggesting this to her mother, the other person on the line suddenly went quiet. Since Wang Fang called her mother and the thought of Shu Xian passing by her mind, she thought that she would also take this opportunity to tell her mom.

"Mama?"

"Oh?"

With Wang Fang's mother suddenly replying, she snapped out of her thoughts, taking a sip of her tea before putting the cup down on the table.

"Sure. You can do anything that you want with the house since it is indeed under us still."

"Don't worry, mama," Wang Fang said, tapping her finger on the table as she wasn't sure of how to take in what her mother had said since the house held sentimental value on her. "I will just be helping a student who doesn't have a house. She is working under me in the library."

"Oh! You're helping a student? Oh, alright. If you trust the student, then why not? If you say that she doesn't have a house and it's a girl, then it is alright."

With her voice sounding lighter this time, it made Wang Fang sigh in relief, making her nod even though her mother won't see.

"Alright. Since she is a student and is struggling, I'd only require for her to housekeep the house and earn money until she has a place to stay. She's a hardworking girl, mama. I pity her because she doesn't even know her family."

"Oh, that does sound unfortunate indeed," Wang Fang's mother said, sighing at the same time. "Since she will be taking care of the house, I need to at least meet her sometime, yes?"

"Of course, mama," Wang Fang answered immediately, her smile not leaving her face. "Don't worry. Not only do I vouch for her, but another professor, too. She's a smart girl as I heard from him. We can trust her on the house rather than leave it unattended."

"Alright, dearie. I trust you," her mother said, already taking another sip of her tea before talking. "Tell me when she's already settled and we'll schedule a visit, alright? I'd like to meet the girl who's going to take care of the house."

"Sure, mama."

"Okay. Good bye, Wang Fang! Don't stress yourself too much at work. Alright?"

"Yes, mama."

With the call ending, Wang Fang heaved another sigh, happy that her mother is willing to help, too. At first, she thought telling this to her mom would be a problem since the house is not only a place where it held sentimental value…

But it was also the place where both of them lived before she remarried and got pregnant—the place where her stepdad frequently visited before they lived with him in the main house.

However, with her accepting the suggestion of having someone to watch over the house, it made Wang Fang feel happy that both of them are helping another student in need.
