Upon hearing this, the surprise on Fang Lingyuan's face faded slightly. He leaned back in his chair and remained silent for a moment before speaking slowly.
"It's not that it's troublesome."
His voice was a bit low, and his gaze drifted to the pine forest outside the window, which was rustling in the afternoon wind.
"It's just that I feel... somewhat overwhelmed."
Fang Han didn't speak, just listened quietly.
"Because of you, the Fang Family's influence is no longer confined to just Liangshui City."
Fang Lingyuan said slowly.
"We've dabbled in business in several surrounding cities, and our assets have grown more than tenfold compared to two years ago."
He paused, the weariness between his brows becoming more distinct.
"You also know that the Fang Family's current prestige is all thanks to you alone."
