Foolish Kindness 011

Liu Mei looked bewildered as Fang Zhiming showed up at her door demanding debt repayment. She really despised the Fang family right now. She had finally figured it out: only her maiden family was her true foundation.

And when Fang Zhiming claimed that her two hundred thousand yuan was all his, Liu Mei flew into a rage, pointing right at his nose and cursing him for being delusional.

Unable to settle the dispute, Liu Mei immediately called her eldest brother. Fang Zhiming showed no weakness: "Do you think I'm afraid of you just because you have more people? Give me the money back!"

Liu Qiang arrived with several men. He was no saint; without a word, they started throwing punches. Fang Zhiming didn't expect them to actually hit him, and for a moment, he was beaten so badly he scurried away with his arms covering his head.

Furious, he reported the incident to the police. However, after the officers arrived and got a general understanding of the situation, they said Fang Zhiming was not in the right. First, he had no evidence to prove she owed him money. Second, he had trespassed into Liu Mei's home. The only thing in his favor was that Liu Qiang and the others had beaten him up, which was assessed as a minor injury.

Fang Zhiming immediately seized upon this point, stubbornly refusing to leave the hospital and demanding compensation from Liu Mei. Liu Mei was also dumbfounded—she wasn't the one who hit him, so why should she have to pay?

Seeing Fang Zhiming blowing things out of proportion, she acted decisively. She transferred all her money to her brother, declaring she was penniless. With a shameless, unyielding attitude, they reached a stalemate.

Lying in the hospital bed, Fang Zhiming was full of resentment, hating both Fang Zhiyi and Liu Mei. Before he could decide whether to leave the hospital, he received a call from his sister.

"Brother, lend me some money!" Fang Wenxia's voice on the other end was choked with tears.

Fang Zhiming frowned. "What happened?"

"I can't get through to our eldest brother, so I can only come to you!" Fang Wenxia sounded terrible. Upon asking for details, Fang Zhiming learned that Li Xiaojun had caused a massive disaster.

Anyway, their new home was finally renovated. To celebrate, Li Jianguo took the mother and son out for fun. They went to an amusement park, then ate and went shopping. After the trip, Fang Wenxia felt the bad mood brought on by the renovation had significantly improved.

But in a moment of inattention, Li Xiaojun slipped into an elegantly decorated shop on the street.

Seeing no one around, he started examining the items. First, he tore the arm off a clay figurine, and then he smeared ice cream on a painting. When the shop owner discovered this and chased after him, Li Xiaojun casually pushed a vase to the floor.

Fang Wenxia and her husband, drawn by the commotion, were initially arrogant, thinking the shop owner was making a fuss over nothing. But when the owner produced receipts proving the value of the items, Fang Wenxia was completely stunned.

"A painting is this expensive?"

"Isn't this vase just ten yuan?"

"You... you're extorting us!"

The shop owner didn't indulge them and directly called the police. While waiting, Li Jianguo glared furiously at Li Xiaojun, who looked completely indifferent. Li Xiaojun was still mouthing off at the shop owner, using words he had learned from his mother.

Li Jianguo slapped him hard across the face.

Knocked to the ground, Li Xiaojun cried out, "Stinky dad, you hit me! You're nothing like Uncle! Uncle would praise me! And give me money!"

At that moment, Fang Wenxia finally realized what a massive time bomb Fang Zhiyi had planted, only they hadn't known when it would explode.

Now they were ordered to compensate for all the damages, but where would the couple get the money?

After cursing "idiot," Fang Zhiming angrily hung up the phone. Trying to borrow money from him? No way!

He suddenly thought of his eldest brother. How could that fool be so calculating? Thinking of his own money, he immediately took out his phone and dialed, but only heard a busy tone. It was obvious he had been blocked.

"We're blood brothers! How could you do this to me!" Fang Zhiming yelled.

He had completely forgotten the time he shamelessly refused to repay Fang Zhiyi's money.

Fang Zhiming never expected that this chain reaction wasn't over yet. His son and Liu Qiang's son happened to attend the same school. When his son was showing off his superiority, Liu Qiang's son overheard. The two got into an argument, and upon further investigation, they realized that the other boy's father was the one who had been beaten up by his father.

Liu Qiang's son suddenly felt a sense of superiority and frequently used the incident to provoke the other boy.

The conflict escalated, and the two boys started fighting. Being half-grown teenagers, they fought recklessly and were only separated when school officials arrived.

Looking at the new patient being brought in, Fang Zhiming was about to say hello when he heard a familiar cry: "Dad..."

Fang Zhiming was dumbfounded.

What stunned him even more came next: the other boy was injured worse than his son, and Liu Qiang demanded compensation. Naturally, he refused to agree, and thus the fates of the two families became entangled.

However, none of this had much to do with Fang Zhiyi. He was leisurely enjoying his life. Blessed with both a son and a daughter, he felt his life was complete.

Facing requests for help from friends, Fang Zhiyi showed a different attitude from the original owner of his body. For some, he helped if it was convenient; for others, he maintained contact but claimed he was powerless to assist.

This change left both Fang Ting and Fang Ning a bit puzzled.

"It took your old man most of his life to realize that not everyone is truly human," Fang Zhiyi said, lying back, too lazy to even wash up.

Fang Ting still only half-understood, but she knew that her dad was very good to her and her brother now. He no longer gave all the good food and drinks to outsiders while she could only watch. Fang Ting felt very happy.

"Boss, this job is done." A call came through on Fang Zhiyi's phone. On the other end was a disheveled man. Fang Zhiyi smiled and replied, "Alright, as agreed, take a tenth of the collected money and split it among the brothers."

Fang Ning knew what kind of business his father was running, and Fang Zhiyi hadn't kept it a secret from him.

He had gathered a group of unemployed vagrants and set up a debt collection company. He didn't require them to be good fighters, only that they be shameless enough. They were willing to block debtors in restaurants, hotels, and construction sites. If the debtor didn't pay, they would just follow them relentlessly without crossing any lines. If the other party couldn't hold back and threw a punch—well, they were in big trouble. Some of these men were professional scammers who would drop to the ground and scream about a headache at the slightest touch.

The people who previously owed the original owner money weren't tough guys either. With just a little pressure, they obediently paid up. They only dropped a few harsh words when paying, saying they would cut ties with Fang Zhiyi in the future. Fang Zhiyi simply nodded repeatedly, "With your kind of character, staying away from me is exactly the right thing to do."

However, Fang Zhiyi kept a strict eye on Fang Ning. Fang Ning refocused his mind on his studies, and being naturally smart, he managed to get accepted directly into a key high school.

On campus, wearing his new school uniform and looking around at the environment, Fang Ning felt a bit emotional. He originally thought he wouldn't have the chance to attend high school. In his old home, his father's outward devotion to others and his mother's suppression and belittling had made him feel like he was better off dead. But now, it seemed the world had turned upside down.

But suddenly, he frowned.

"You bastard, why are you here too?"

"If you can come, why can't this young master?" the newcomer asked with a careless swagger.

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
