Ch 65 (Part 2): Rebirth of the Tool Man in a Pampered Protagonist Novel

【Puhahaha, young master, are you trying to make me laugh to death so you can inherit my Huabei and Jiebei?】

(NOTE: Huabei and Jiebei are digital credit services. They allow users to make purchases and access credit easily through their smartphones.)

【666, young master, be careful. Don’t you know that every time you speak, it leaves a psychological shadow on people?】

【You two big brothers are not qualified in business. You didn’t even do your homework before confronting our young master with your *short cannons. The level of this question is a bit off…】

【This funny thing, I have to go tell everyone, it’s so hilarious, hahaha】

The audience in the live broadcast room simply didn’t buy the journalist’s account. After numerous ups and downs of internet news bombardment, the fact that they can still stay in the live broadcast room to watch Fang Ziyang’s live stream indicates that they are basically die-hard fans who can rationally judge the situation.

These petty pranks are really lacking in technical content. They definitely want to take this joke and tell it everywhere, haha.

Several journalists who were nearby and blocked saw the live stream flooding the chat and their faces turned pale.

An angry journalist once again thrust his microphone in front of Fang Ziyang and spoke sharply, “Fang Ziyang, is this your usual way of doing things?”

Fang Ziyang narrowed his eyes in response and stared at him. “Don’t tell me you just realized today that I like to confront people?”

With an indescribable sense of danger.

The journalist involuntarily took a step back upon being confronted and raised his voice, “Fang Ziyang, are you still planning to attack someone? Is this your style of action? Could it be that the online speculation about Yan Tong being targeted for revenge is really your doing?”

And with his words, the other journalists cooperated by snapping photos, diligently capturing every moment of this conflict.

“That’s right, Fang Ziyang, your brother knows how overbearing you are, right?”

“The eyes of the masses are sharp. Denying and deflecting the topic won’t work.”

“Fang Ziyang, can you please answer…”

The clicking sound of cameras and the pressing questions were like sharp killing swords.

Fang Ziyang’s smile gradually turned cold.

But just as he was about to speak again.

A voice filled with anger and righteousness suddenly came from the crowd.

“Hey, big brother, how much grudge or resentment do you have against others? Or did you receive some benefit to boldly and openly slander someone? Don’t you feel guilty about it?”

Accompanying the sudden interruption of the voice.

Everyone turned to look, only to see a girl wearing a white dress, beautiful yet fragile in appearance.

The person who appeared was none other than Shi Meijing, whom they hadn’t seen for a month.

At this moment, Shi Meijing’s expression looked extremely angry, and her sickly appearance couldn’t hide the strength and energy within her.

It seemed as if she had witnessed something dirty and couldn’t tolerate it any longer. She walked over and came to their aid, pointing her sword at the group of journalists and angrily said,

“Which media organization do you all belong to? Do you have press credentials? Did you get consent for the interview? Don’t you know this is the entrance of the school? Aren’t you afraid of being condemned by society for disrupting the order of the school?”

“And what kind of questions are you asking? Clearly, you’re deliberately trying to trip them up. You’re busy meddling in people’s personal lives, marriages, and childbirths. Why don’t you ascend to the heavens?”

“What does it have to do with Fang Ziyang if Yan Tong was targeted? Don’t you understand the principle of not speaking without evidence?

The journalistic principle of reporting news is to seek the truth. Aren’t you afraid of being sued for distorting and defaming just for the sake of sensationalism?!”

Shi Meijing’s words came out like a barrage of cannons, leaving people speechless and bringing joy to their hearts.

Several journalists were left red-faced and speechless under her confrontation.

Translated on ho lo lo novels dot com.

The surrounding people echoed one after another, “That’s right, this girl is right. What kind of questions are you asking? Have you no boundaries in prying into people’s hearts? Sacrificing conscience for ratings and traffic… absolutely shameful!”

“And now you want to slander Mr. Tang Xun as well? That’s too much. You journalists are like rat droppings, randomly reporting news without considering how many scientific talents who contribute to society will be disheartened. Do you even know what social progress is? All you do is hold others back!”

“Come on, let’s not block the entrance of the school. We still have to register…”

There’s no need to explain the situation regarding the Fang family anymore; now it’s widely known throughout the country.

Although people enjoy gossip about wealthy families, they don’t cross the line to harm those involved. The journalists just now were really pushing too hard and trying to manipulate the situation, it was absolutely excessive.

There are many bad people in the world, but there are also many good people.

With Shi Meijing taking the lead, people around also spoke up.

Even if the journalists had thick skins, being excluded and criticized by so many people was unbearable. Their faces turned red, and they couldn’t continue with the interviews, hastily fleeing the scene.

Witnessing this, everyone couldn’t help but feel relieved. These journalists without professional ethics are really annoying.

Then, one by one, they turned to Fang Ziyang with friendly smiles and nods before dispersing.

Shi Meijing didn’t leave immediately.

After driving away the journalists, she walked over to Fang Ziyang, showing concern on her face.

“Fang Ziyang, are you alright? Those journalists were despicable. You should be tougher with those people. Don’t bother engaging with them and just drive them away.”

After expressing her concern, she smiled again, “What a coincidence, I didn’t expect you, Fang Ziyang, to be studying at Qing University. No wonder you’re a friend of Brother Li Xiao, both of you are impressive. But Fang Ziyang, we’re going to be schoolmates from now on…”

Shi Meijing’s smile was playful, her voice cheerful and joyful, making her very likable.

Her familiar and enthusiastic manner is hard to resist.

But Fang Ziyang is an exception.

Since he saw Shi Meijing just now, his smile disappeared from his face. His hand holding the phone instinctively clenched, and he felt like he had instantly fallen into an ice cave.

This scene…

How similar it is to his past memories.

Both cases involve drawing a sword to help others, offering a favor. It was just like that, in his previous life, he met Shi Meijing and her brother, and their relationship grew closer, eventually leading him to fall into those traps.

Is this a coincidence now?

If it’s not.

Shi Meijing has arrived.

Then… would Shi Liangchen be far away?

So, some things, even with a rebirth, even with efforts, are they unchangeable?

Suddenly, Fang Ziyang felt a taste of blood in his mouth, and his heart felt like ice.

Why?

Why is he willing to let go of these people, but they never seem willing to let him go?

He tightly clenched his fists.

Fang Ziyang looked at Shi Meijing with a dark gaze.

“Are we really that close? Classmate Shi, can’t you see that I don’t want to be friends with you? Or do you know it very well, and today you’re deliberately seizing the opportunity to retaliate against me for embarrassing you in the past?”

“Do I look like a complete fool? Can’t you see through these petty tricks?”

“I don’t know who bribed you and those journalists to conspire against me, but let me tell you, Shi Meijing, if even a tiny bit of negative news appears about me online tomorrow, I will find you.”

After saying these words loudly enough for passersby to hear, Fang Ziyang turned around and walked away, not giving Shi Meijing a chance to refute or explain.

Regardless of Shi Meijing’s intentions, as he suspected, he would never let her approach him with the image of a ‘kind person’ again.

Does Shi Meijing want to get close to him again?

She’s welcome.

Let’s see how it goes.

Fang Ziyang clenched his fists tightly and walked into the school gate.

Once out of Shi Meijing’s sight, Fang Ziyang didn’t immediately go to the reporting office. Instead, he carried his suitcase and walked to a less crowded corner along the school’s green area.

Carefully surveying the surrounding environment without leaving any traces, Fang Ziyang finally confirmed that there was no one else around. He found a spot under the shade of a tree and sat down, taking out his laptop. With an expressionless face, he stared at the computer screen and began typing rapidly, retrieving video surveillance footage, call logs, and bank transaction records related to Yan Tong.

He put on his headphones and quickly browsed through the records.

When he finished listening to the last few phone conversations, Fang Ziyang closed his laptop and looked at the shimmering artificial lake in front of him, his face devoid of any expression.

After a long while, he slowly stood up from the ground, revealing a dazzling smile like sunlight.

He took out his phone and called Xie Zheng.

“Hello, is this Brother Xie? I don’t want to live in a double room. Can you help me switch to a four-person dormitory? I want to have more roommates and a lively environment…”
