Fang Family!
âThatâs great!â
The head of the Fang family, Fang Jinyuan, hit the armrest of the sofa and said excitedly, âThe Fang family has been going downhill for the past few years. Our status in Ning City has been declining. This time, we can cooperate with the Nox Company. It will definitely make our family glorious again. Yunshu, you did a great job.â
It had been a long time since Fang Yunshu had received a compliment from the Old Man. She said with a choked voice, âAs a member of the Fang Family, itâs my honor to be able to contribute to the Fang Family.â
âNot bad! Not bad!â Old Master Fang nodded. He looked around and said to his second son, Fang Qianlong, âQianlong, Iâll leave the cooperation with Paul to you.â
Fang Qianlong was in his fifties this year, and he was the most capable person in the second generation of the Fang Family. His face lit up when he heard this, and he said excitedly, âDonât worry, Father. Iâll make sure to handle this matter properly. I can handle the rest, but with Yunshu and Paulâs relationship, I think it is still up to Yunshu.â
Fang Yunshu said hurriedly, âPlease tell me what I have to do, Second Uncle. Iâll do my best.â
Fang Qianlong said with a smile, âWhat I want you to do is simple, but itâs very important⦠I think you should understand.â
Fang Yunshu was stunned. âSecond Uncle, please explain. I donât understand.â
Fang Qianlongâs daughter, Fang Yunduo, chuckled. Her laughter was filled with ridicule and mockery. âYunshu, are you trying to fool me? Just keep Mr. Paul company and make him happy.â
Fang Yunshu finally understood what they meant, and her expression turned ugly. âSister Yunduo, Paul and I are just business partners. We donât have that kind of relationship.â
âHehâ¦â Fang Yunduo pursed her lips. âWhy are you acting so high and mighty here? Who doesnât know that Paul is a playboy? If nothing happened, would he agree to cooperate with us?â
âAbsolutely not!â Fang Yunshu raised her voice and her expression became stern.
Fang Qianlong immediately said worriedly, âNothing happened⦠then this cooperation might not be so successful. Paul is clearly waiting for your response. If you donât take the initiative, then this cooperation will be ruined. You have to accompany Paul today to ensure that nothing goes wrong.â
Fang Yunshu clenched her fists. âSecond Uncle, Iâm still a member of the Fang Family. If I use such a method, wonât the Fang Family be embarrassed?â
Fang Yunduo said disdainfully, âYou still have the cheek to say that itâs embarrassing? You gave birth before marriage at the age of twenty. Youâve long embarrassed the Fang Family. Now, weâre just trying to make use of used trash. What are you still being pretentious about?â
Fang Yunshu felt an indescribable discomfort as she held her breath.
She had negotiated a collaboration with Paul and made a great contribution. It was fine if the others had directly taken the fruits of their labor, but in the end, they even asked her to sell her body to accompany Paul. This was simply too much.
Taking a deep breath, Fang Yunshu gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words. âWhat if I donât agree?â
The faces of the members of the Fang Family were filled with surprise. It seemed that Fang Yunshu had made the most absurd request.
Fang Qianlong snorted, âYunshu, what else have you brought to the Fang Family besides humiliation all these years? Now that thereâs a chance to make a contribution, arenât you going to seize it?â
âSuch an opportunity, Iâ¦â Fang Yunshuâs eyes were filled with determination. âI donât need it! â
Fang Yunshu took another deep breath and said, âThen I have nothing to do here. Iâm leaving.â
âStop there!â Fang Qianlong glared at her and said, âFrom now on, you have to stay here. Youâre not allowed to go anywhere. Wait for Mr. Paulâs arrival!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âExactly! Yunshu, donât mess around. This is a great opportunity. You canât miss it.â
âYouâre not an innocent young lady anymore. Youâve already given birth to a bastard. Whatâs the big deal in sleeping with Mr. Paul for a few days?â
âItâs your honor for a disgraced woman like you to be able to contribute to the Fang Family through such a method. Donât be stubborn.â
All kinds of accusations came from all directions.
No one from the Fang Family came to speak up for her. Everyone thought that it was only right for her to accompany Paul. If she did not accompany him, it would be the greatest outrage.
Fang Yunshuâs face was ashen. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms.
Old Master Fang waved his hand, and everyone immediately quieted down. Then, he said indifferently, âYunshu, Iâll help you contact Dr. Zhu in a few days.â
With that, the Old Man turned around and left without even looking at Fang Yunshu.
In the past few years, Fang Yunshu had looked for many famous doctors for her daughterâs illness, but none of them had any effect. Dr. Zhu was said to have very successful experience in this area, but she could not contact Dr. Zhu. The Old Manâs words had hit her soft spot.
Her pride, and her persistence, in the face of her daughterâs health, were all so weak. She stood where she was and lowered her head silently. She had no intention of fighting back.
Fang Qianlong looked at Fang Lingâer and frowned, âYunduo, take this bastard away. Donât let her get in the way here.â
Fang Yunduo replied and grabbed Fang Lingâerâs arm, âLittle b*stard, come with me.â
âWhat are you doing?â Fang Yunshu pulled Fang Lingâer into her arms nervously.
Fang Yunduo curled her lips in disdain and said, âYouâre going to accompany Mr. Paul for the next two days. Are you going to bring this little b*stard along?â
Fang Yunshu slowly squatted down and gently held her daughterâs hand. She said gently, âLing âer, can you stay with Aunt Duo for the next two days?â
Fang Lingâer gripped Fang Yunshuâs finger tightly and shook her head vigorously.
Fang Yunshu said with a tense face, âYouâre not obedient if you donât listen to Mommy.â
Fang Lingâer continued to shake her head. She looked at her mother with a determined gaze and said, âMommy, donât be afraid. Thereâs Daddy!â
Fang Yunshuâs face stiffened, and she stood up abruptly to leave.
Fang Lingâer was about to chase after her, but Fang Yunduo grabbed her shoulder, preventing her from moving.
Fang Lingâer watched as her mother went upstairs. She turned her head and stared at Fang Yunduo with a burning gaze.
Fang Yunduo frowned. She felt a sense of oppression when the little girl stared at her. She did not like it, so she patted Fang Lingâerâs head and said, âLittle b*stard, behave yourself for the next two days. Otherwise, I wonât give you any food to eat.â
Fang Lingâer lowered her head but immediately raised her head again. Instead of crying, she looked proud. âI have a Daddy! â
Fang Yunduo pursed his lips in disdain and said, âYour Daddy? Heh ⦠Heâs just trash.â
Fang Lingâerâs face turned red as she shouted, âHeâs the sea god. If you bully me and Mommy, Daddy will avenge us.â
âThe usual little mute, not only is she speaking today, she is even saying so much.â Fang Yunduo was a little surprised, but she did not like Lingâerâs threatening words.
She reached out and grabbed Fang Lingâerâs ear. âLittle b*stard, come and tell me that your father is trash.â
Fang Lingâer shouted, âMy Daddy is the sea god!â
âHeâs trash. Are you going to say it or not?â Fang Yunduo increased the strength in her hands and even pinched her with a mocking expression on her face.
Fang Lingâer clenched her fists tightly. Her face was contorted from the pain, but she gritted her teeth and did not make a sound. Her eyes were filled with hatred and anger.
Fang Yunduo was a little scared by her stare. She became even angrier and scolded, âWretched girl, tell me quickly, or Iâll wring your ears off!â
Fang Lingâer was already trembling in pain. She gritted her teeth and did not say a word. Her eyes were already filled with tears, but she was able to hold them back.
âStop!â
With a loud shout, Ye Xiaofei rushed in.
With a wave of his hand, he had already flicked Fang Yunduoâs hand away.
Squatting down, Ye Xiaofei looked at Fang Lingâer with heartache.
Fang Lingâer pursed her lips tightly as tears welled up in her eyes.
The stubborn and strong little girl finally could not hold it in anymore when she saw Ye Xiaofei.
âDaddy!â A choked voice came out of the little girlâs mouth, and tears instantly gathered into a stream and flowed down her face.
Ye Xiaofeiâs heart ached as he hugged Fang Lingâer.
Fang Lingâer hugged Ye Xiaofeiâs neck tightly and pressed her face against his.
âDaddy! They ⦠They ⦠Wu ⦠They bullied me!â
