Ch 34 (Part 2): Rebirth of the Tool Man in a Pampered Protagonist Novel

However, after Fang Ziyang finished scolding, he turned his gaze directly to the auction stage and shouted with anger, “Hey, Mr. Auctioneer, hurry up and ask if anyone else wants to buy this piece of land. If there’s no one, then hurry up and hammer it down for me!”

“Oh, oh, oh, alright. This young gentleman, please don’t be angry. Harmony brings wealth… harmony brings wealth…”

The auctioneer, brought back to his senses by the outburst, was not angry but rather happy.

Oh my god, the piece of land in the western suburbs was finally sold. 8 billion, how much commission would he get?

Seizing the opportunity, he quickly asked at the fastest pace of his life. After three rounds of no further bids, he immediately hammered down the auction hammer, finalizing the transaction.

With one strike, there was no turning back.

The gaze of the entire audience was filled with admiration for Fang Ziyang: the young master of the Fang family was truly domineering!

Fang Qianhao’s legs went weak, and he sat back in his chair, his mind filled with two words: It’s over…

The auction ended amidst enthusiastic applause.

As Fang Ziyang walked out of the auction venue, he was surrounded by many familiar wealthy uncles and aunts from Jiang City. They naturally didn’t come over to greet the younger generation but rather to gossip and watch the Fang family’s jokes.

Hearing their insincere and deeply meaningful congratulatory words, Fang Ziyang didn’t mind seizing the opportunity to embarrass his family. After all, wasn’t Fang Qianhao talking behind his back and calling him an idiot? Now it was his turn.

Adjusting his clothes, Fang Ziyang spoke with the air of a nouveau riche, “It’s just 8 billion. My dad loves me the most, and he’ll definitely give me whatever I want. But my dad works hard to earn money, so I want to invest on my own. No need to trouble my dad. If necessary, I can sell my shares, or I can team up with my two good friends for investment. Money is not a problem.”

“As for my brother’s earlier outburst… I’ve already made my own decision. I don’t know why he’s so upset. I guess he’s afraid that I’ll spend all the family’s money and he won’t have any left in the future. Hey, don’t you think my brother lacks ambition? He’s so young and doesn’t think about working hard for himself. Instead, he’s always waiting for Dad to die and inherit the family business. It’s really outrageous.”

Zhou Jun and Zhao Jingyu nodded, puffing up their chests, “When father and son join forces, they are invincible. It’s just 8 billion. The three of us can handle it. We believe in Ziyang’s judgment. Young people should have the courage and ambition to forge ahead.”

People couldn’t help but twitch their mouths at their words.

If that’s how ambition looks like, it’s better not to have any.

In a corner, Fang Qianhao couldn’t bear it any longer and rushed forward, ready to fight.

“Fang Ziyang, you idiot! How dare you spread rumors and ruin my reputation!”

Fang Qianhao’s eyes turned bloodshot as he charged forward, scaring everyone away.

Fang Ziyang didn’t back down either. While retaliating with kicks, he continued to argue, “Fang Qianhao, is your brain filled with water? You dare to lay a hand on me just because you’re my older brother? Come on, hit me! Do you really think I’m afraid of you?”

In the blink of an eye, the two brothers started fighting in front of everyone.

As they exchanged blows, they continued to argue.

It was truly a dramatic family spectacle, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.

In the world of prestigious families, they value face the most. Any dirty laundry is resolved behind closed doors. It’s rare to see a public feud like the one between the Fang brothers.

This is not a sibling relationship; it’s a life-and-death rivalry.

The journalists who were waiting outside the venue were like wild dogs smelling a bone. They rushed forward with their cameras, excitedly capturing the scene. Their faces were filled with anticipation.

Well, tomorrow’s gossip headlines are set. A feud between the wealthy siblings, it’s going to be explosive!

Both brothers had bloodshot eyes.

Fang Qianhao had lost his rationality. Seeing that he was about to lose the fight, embarrassed in front of so many people, he acted on impulse and picked up an antique vase nearby, intending to strike a fatal blow.

Although Fang Ziyang was skilled in fighting, he didn’t dare to directly confront a vase with his flesh and blood. He had to dodge to the side.

This wasn’t a TV drama. That vase could actually kill someone!

However, Fang Qianhao’s actions completely triggered all the pent-up hatred in Fang Ziyang’s heart. Fang Ziyang wasn’t even planning to take his life, but now this guy wanted to end his life.

Clenching his fists, Fang Ziyang was also about to strike.

Suddenly, several black-suited bodyguards rushed over from the side and swiftly diverted Fang Qianhao’s attention, restraining him.

The intense pain in his arm brought Fang Qianhao back to his senses, but only slightly. When he realized the situation, he became even more furious, glaring at the unexpected appearance of the bodyguards and cursing angrily, “Who the hell are you? Let go! It’s none of your business that my brother and I are fighting. Get lost!”

However, the bodyguards completely ignored him, holding him firmly.

At that moment, a young man walked out from the crowd, his face expressionless, and approached Fang Qianhao. Then… he slapped him across the face.

“Smack!”

The resounding slap silenced the entire scene, and you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone widened their eyes.

Fang Ziyang was also stunned, looking at the familiar face before him—it was the handsome man who had helped him multiple times at the venue.

No one expected such an unexpected turn of events.

Fang Qianhao, no matter what, was the eldest young master of the Fang family, with a respectable status in Jiang City. Regardless of the circumstances, out of respect for Fang Yandong, they should give face to each other when they were away from home. No one would directly offend him.

Yet this stranger walked up and slapped him, completely humiliating the Fang family!

The burning pain on his face made Fang Qianhao unable to believe and become even angrier. He stared at the unfamiliar man with gritted teeth and disbelief, “How dare you hit me!”

Before he could finish his words, another slap landed.

The young man looked down on him from above, his gaze cold. “Yes, I hit you. So what?”

Hiss…

The crowd couldn’t help but inhale sharply. Was this person intentionally looking for trouble?

Fang Qianhao was both shocked and angry, his breathing heavy, his mind a mess. He couldn’t believe it as he glared fiercely at the stranger before him and gritted his teeth, “Who are you? Do you know who I am? How dare you hit me… You…”

“Smack!”

Before he could finish his sentence, another slap landed.

In less than a minute, three slaps had been delivered. It was beyond arrogant.

But it didn’t stop there.

The young man showed no intention of stopping. With a calm expression, he continued slapping Fang Qianhao, one after another, each accompanied by a statement.

“Smack!”

“You’re just a member of the Fang family in Jiang City. Why wouldn’t I dare hit you?”

“Smack!”

“I slapped you because you were too noisy. I hate it when people disrupt public order.”

“Smack!”

“I slapped you because you’re too arrogant. Even in front of me, you dare to be disrespectful. I didn’t harm you inside the venue out of respect for the host.”

“Smack!”

“I slapped you because I don’t like you. As an elder brother, you actually bully your younger brother. You’re so amazing that I’ll make sure you make the headlines. No need to thank me.”

“Smack!”

“I slapped you… for no reason. I just felt like it. Is there a problem?”

Slap after slap, with each one accompanied by a statement. Fang Qianhao couldn’t take it anymore, and even the onlookers were dumbfounded.

After being incredibly arrogant.

But nobody in the crowd dared to look down on the young man in the center. The calmness emanating from him indicated that he had the backing that the Fang family couldn’t afford to provoke. No one doubted it!

The expressions of the people present varied.

The gossip journalists on the side captured the scene with their cameras.

Fang Ziyang stood still, feeling a complex mix of emotions. He looked at the handsome man before him, unable to determine his true feelings.

There was a strange warmth that he had never expected, and it was accompanied by a bitter feeling.

He had never imagined that someone would openly stand up for him like this. After all, he had always been the one people disliked. Except for a few individuals, everyone said he was malicious, bad, and that he brought misfortune upon himself…

He wasn’t a god; he was a mortal with desires and emotions. He also felt sad, sorrowful, and exhausted. He wanted someone to protect him too.

For some reason, the unfamiliar man in front of him gave him a feeling of familiarity, so intimate that when he was being protected by him at this moment, he had the inexplicable urge to rush over and seek shelter in his embrace.

Fang Ziyang’s nose tingled.

Meanwhile, the young man who had just delivered the slaps showed no signs of stopping. He looked indifferently at the now unconscious Fang Qianhao, took out a tissue, carefully wiped his hand that had slapped someone, and then turned to walk toward Fang Ziyang.

Unlike the coldness and severity he displayed towards Fang Qianhao, when he approached Fang Ziyang, he revealed a smile that melted like snow.

Extending his hand to ruffle Fang Ziyang’s hair, the man spoke in a gentle voice, “My name is Tang Xun. If your big brother wakes up and has any complaints, tell him to come directly to me.”

Tang Xun? It’s actually Tang Xun!

Upon hearing this name, everyone was shocked.
