Ch 44 (Part 2): Rebirth of the Tool Man in a Pampered Protagonist Novel

The incident caused by the Fang family was truly infuriating, and no one thought Fang Ziyang’s and his brother’s decision was wrong.

In fact, the two brothers had already shown great consideration for their bloodline by not relentlessly pursuing Fang Yandong. Even with the truth that had been exposed, even if the two brothers had flown into a rage and killed someone, everyone could understand.

After the court verdict, the matter not only spread on the internet but also began to be reported on official television news channels.

After all, Tang Xun’s identity was too intriguing. The convoluted life of a scientific genius was both sensational and legendary. Now even the mainstream news channels needed some sensational news to attract viewership.

Once these news channels started broadcasting, their influence became even greater.

Many elderly people who saw the news couldn’t help but become emotionally stirred. They sympathized with Tang Xun and the two brothers and kept talking about it at home.

“It’s truly terrible, really terrible. How could there be such heartless people? That Mrs. Fang and those two brothers are so pitiful…”

“Yes, poor children. It’s not something a human would do. My granddaughter said they’re scumbags, not good people at all.”

The elderly ladies and gentlemen didn’t participate in online discussions, so they gathered in the community garden to talk.

In any case, the Fang family’s situation had caused a real uproar.

Even the Fang Group was affected, facing various boycotts online. Many people went to the company’s doorstep to throw garbage, and the stock prices were fluctuating wildly.

The shareholders were frightened.

In order to salvage the company’s image, the shareholders held an emergency meeting overnight to discuss. Under the instigation of Li Zhiren, they unanimously decided to remove Fang Yandong from the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors. After the crisis subsided, they would elect a new Chairman.

Naturally, there were heated arguments during the shareholders’ meeting. They argued with Fang Yandong until their eyes turned red, all for their own interests.

Even the people who used to be on Fang Yandong’s side had now betrayed him. Jokingly, given Fang Yandong’s current situation, supporting him would mean following him into ruin.

In the end, Fang Yandong was outnumbered in the face of the crowd, and he was defeated.

But this also made Fang Yandong seriously consider the suggestion put forward by Yan Tong.

Starting anew seemed to be his best choice for now. He still had some hidden funds that would be suitable for capital investment…

Since these people treated him this way and were determined to oust him, he might as well leave directly. Wasn’t being a shareholder in a company desirable?

In his desperate situation, Fang Yandong made his decision with resentment in his heart.

…

Of course, no matter what Fang Yandong planned now, it couldn’t be accomplished in just a few days.

However, from the surveillance footage that Fang Ziyang left behind at the villa, he saw that Yan Tong had successfully given Fang Yandong the information from the “golden finger” and had already begun the next step of the plan.

And the most crucial part of this plan was the antivirus software that he had sold on the Midnight Union Forum.

All the internal information that Yan Tong received from the “golden finger” was specially selected by Fang Ziyang himself. He even planned which parts of the information to use in each stage.

Translated on ho lo lo novels dot com.

The reason Fang Ziyang was able to calculate everything so accurately was thanks to his experience from his previous life and the special genes inherited from his family.

In his past life…

Yan Tong did indeed take away his “golden finger,” and he had used it to achieve remarkable success.

But that was it.

Without the special genes and high intelligence of the Lu family, it was a pipe dream to truly utilize the information in the dimensional button.

Back then, Yan Tong did manage to lure his little uncle to their side. Unfortunately, although his little uncle was from the Lu family, he didn’t inherit the family’s advantages. He only knew how to sing, dance, and act, with no talent in scientific research.

Therefore, the technological products introduced by Yan Tong and his group in the previous life had many flaws and hidden problems.

Fang Ziyang, in order to seek revenge, naturally studied the products launched by the other side and then devised corresponding countermeasures.

These fools, including Yan Tong, couldn’t understand the information, so they directly used the original data recorded in the “golden finger.” It was equivalent to revealing the core information without encryption.

Fortunately, apart from the Lu family, no one could understand it, so their technology wasn’t stolen.

So, it conveniently worked out for him. He thoroughly studied those things back then and indirectly learned the information in the “golden finger.”

If he hadn’t been killed early due to the protagonist’s halo from Yan Tong’s rebirth…

Fang Ziyang had absolute confidence in turning the tables and seeking revenge from his past life…

Therefore, now that Yan Tong dared to be greedy and use his “golden finger,” he should be prepared to face the consequences like a storm!

And Yan Tong didn’t disappoint him. The enemy’s greed didn’t change just because he was reborn.

After confirming that Yan Tong had gone to instigate Fang Yandong, Fang Ziyang opened his computer again and logged into the Midnight Union Forum.

And then…

He sent a contact message to the “Talent Kidnapper.”

Because during their last transaction, he had instructed them to wait for news, the “Talent Kidnapper” had been frequently online recently, so the response came quickly.

【I Adore Tang Tang】: Ah, ah, ah, great god~ you finally contacted me. We have tested the antivirus software you sold to my boss multiple times, and the effect is simply perfect. You’re truly amazing, great god!

As soon as they made contact, Fang Ziyang was welcomed with the signature flattery from the “Talent Kidnapper.”

Although he found it a bit cringeworthy, he could already tell that the other party probably wanted to recruit him for their company.

But that was understandable. Although what he sold to them was just a small antivirus software, the technology within it had already surpassed 99% of similar products on the market, reaching a national security level.

Of course, Fang Ziyang could have achieved an even higher level of quality, surpassing the most cutting-edge technology of this era. But for now, he didn’t want to take unnecessary risks.

Moreover, he had already given a lot of information to his brother, who was currently cooperating with Xie Zheng. How could he sell highly advanced technology to others?

This “Talent Kidnapper” wanted to dig him, but he wanted to bring this great swindler over. After all, in his previous life, this guy had fooled away 80% of the big shots and experts in the forum, he was simply too audacious…

Ignoring the flattery in the other party’s message, Fang Ziyang calmly replied and got to the main topic of today’s contact.

【Heavenly Scourge’s Little Elf】: Stop with the flattery. Last time, I told you to prepare for the software release, but don’t release it for now. How are you doing with the preparations? If everything is in order, I will notify you of the timing for the release within three months.

When it came to the main topic, the non-serious “Talent Kidnapper” still responded very quickly.

【I Adore Tang Tang】:No problem within three months. We can start working anytime. But great god~ can you tell us when exactly? My boss is a bit curious…

Not just a bit curious, but extremely curious!

On the computer side, Rick, the “Talent Kidnapper,” was itching with curiosity, staring at the message box.

Since they obtained Fang Ziyang’s software, they immediately made the decision to purchase it. Later, they took it to the company’s research institute for everyone’s reference, and the team of highly paid experts had a serious expression on their faces.

Only after Tang Xun had a look did they realize the seriousness of the matter. This seemingly simple antivirus software had reached a national security level in terms of its technology.

In other words, the person who made this software had already achieved a level where they must be registered, even if they couldn’t be recruited by the government.

And talents like this generally wouldn’t sell software on their own.

In other words… this so-called “Heavenly Scourge’s Little Elf” was a top-notch freelance technician.

They were currently in need of such top-tier technicians, and they had come across this talented individual who was wandering outside. Of course, they had to seize the opportunity to bring them into their team!

However, the other party was extremely cautious and secretive, so the only breakthrough point was the timing of the software release mentioned by the other party.

…

If Fang Ziyang truly was a “freelancer,” it was quite possible for him to collaborate and build a team with these people, including the “Talent Kidnapper.”

But now that he had recognized his brother and would eventually join his brother’s team, he could only regretfully decline this offer.

Fang Ziyang pretended not to understand the implied meaning in the message and replied directly.

【Heavenly Scourge’s Little Elf】: Secret. A gift to pave the way for a sale… Of course, if you don’t want to make money, you can ignore it and regret it later.

After all, it was just a one-time deal, and once the transaction was completed, no one would know each other.

Fang Ziyang played up the mystery.

But this made the person on the computer side feel helpless.

In front of the computer, Rick looked a bit worried as he glanced at Xie Zheng. “Xie, this guy is very vigilant and doesn’t take the bait at all. Every topic I bring up, he can easily shut me down with a few words. What should we do?”

Xie Zheng’s expression turned serious, and he stared at the computer screen in silence for a while.

Then he gestured for Rick to step aside and took matters into his own hands. He rapidly typed out a message.

【I Adore Tang Tang】: Thank you for your advice. We are very much looking forward to this gift. However, we need to confirm one thing with you. Are you really the boyfriend of Heavenly Scourge?

Although it was still the same account sending the message, just by looking at the tone, it was clear that it was a completely different person.

Fang Ziyang looked at the message that came again, feeling a bit confused about the other party’s intention.

But that didn’t stop him from boasting.

As far as he knew, Heavenly Scourge was rarely online, and in his previous life, it was later confirmed that this mythical forum deity had already passed away a long time ago.

Fang Ziyang continued to play up his arrogance, feeling quite pleased.

【Heavenly Scourge’s Little Elf】: That’s right, he is my boyfriend. Do you have any questions?

…

…

After sending this message, there was complete silence on the computer for three minutes before there was a response.

【I Adore Tang Tang】: Yes. I have a very big question.

【I Adore Tang Tang】: I am Heavenly Scourge. This is my employee’s account.

【I Adore Tang Tang】: So why are you tarnishing my reputation?

【I Adore Tang Tang】: And why did you hack into my account?

Four consecutive shocking questions.

Fang Ziyang:…

Without saying a word, Fang Ziyang immediately unplugged the network cable and shut down the computer!
