Chapter 205: Blacklisted

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Under Song Ling’s urging, Fang Liguo reluctantly reached for his phone and called the intermediary.

Upon hearing that Fang Liguo was now willing to sell, the agent promptly contacted Mr. Liu. After a brief interval, he called Fang Liguo back with a troubled tone, “Mr. Fang… Mr. Liu has conveyed that if it’s 70 million, he will make an immediate payment.”

“What? Wasn’t it agreed upon at 80 million? Why the sudden drop?” Fang Liguo fumed. “Find out the market value of similar villas and shops in the area. He exploited us, and now he wants a further reduction? Does he assume we have no choice but to sell? Does he think we’re fools?”

“Mr. Fang, please don’t be upset.”

“I’m not selling!” Fang Liguo angrily terminated the call.

Upon hearing Fang Liguo’s refusal to sell, Song Ling and Fang Jiayi grew anxious, quickly resorting to pleading. With the clock ticking towards midnight, the window for regret was rapidly closing.

“That Mr. Liu is treating us like puppets…” Fang Liguo seethed with anger.

After tearful pleas from Song Ling and Fang Jiayi, Fang Liguo begrudgingly picked up his phone once more. “Fine, 70 million it is, but he must transfer the full amount immediately!”

The contracts for the shops and villas were already signed by Fang Liguo; the formalities could be completed once the payment was received.

The agent hesitated, stammering, “Mr… Mr. Fang… Mr. Liu has changed his mind again. He insists on buying it for 60 million. Otherwise, he’ll go to sleep…” “What? 60 million now?” Fang Liguo erupted in fury.

“Yes, if it’s 60 million, he’ll transfer the full amount right away. Otherwise, he wants to rest…”

Fang Liguo was irate, on the brink of rejecting the offer. However, Song Ling, desperate, knelt at his feet, pleading once more, “60 million it is…”

It was almost 11:55 pm!

Fang Liguo’s heart ached, teeth gritted, he uttered, “Fine, we’ll sell!”

“That’s great!” The agent swiftly moved to finalize the arrangements.

At 11:57 pm, Fang Liguo’s phone rang, confirming the 60 million transaction.

“Quick, turn around and settle things with that wretched girl immediately…” Song Ling urged, “Time is of the essence!”

Fang Liguo, holding back tears, made the necessary arrangements. A few seconds later, it was midnight.

Song Ling and Fang Jiayi hurriedly searched online, finding no signs of the plagiarism release by Fang Yuan. Finally, they breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Fang Liguo was already overwhelmed with sorrow. The villas and shops, originally valued at nearly 200 million, were sold for 60 million—a substantial loss. The weight of the situation pressed heavily on him, and he clutched his chest in pain.

Song Ling, understanding that the ordeal was far from over, approached Fang Liguo to offer comfort. “It’s all for our daughter. She has suffered during her 18 years outside. Can we view this as compensation for her?”

“It’s all my fault. Dad, Mom, I’m sorry. I implicated you…” Fang Jiayi cried.

Witnessing her pitiful state, Fang Liguo couldn’t bring himself to chastise her. He only said, “In the future, you can’t take anything that isn’t yours, understand?”

“Dad, I’ve learned my lesson. I won’t take anything that doesn’t belong to me in the future!” Fang Jiayi bit her lip, harboring deep resentment towards Fang

Yuan.

At that moment, her phone rang. Initially, she thought it was Lu Chen, who hadn’t called her in three days.

She answered the call, but her expression changed. “What? You’re FY’s customer service? Why are you calling me in the middle of the night?”

“Miss Fang, it’s like this. You wore FY’s gown, FY’s jewelry, and FY’s shoes at the award ceremony…”

“As you plagiarized Master Qingyin’s work and discredited our brand, we’ve blacklisted you. If you persist in wearing our brand’s products publicly, we will take legal action against you…”

“What do you mean? Hello? Hello?” Fang Jiayi thought she had misheard. Just as she was about to seek clarification, the other party abruptly hung up.

At that moment, her phone rang again, and she received a message. The content conveyed that she had been blacklisted by the FY brand. Henceforth, she would be unable to purchase any FY products!

“What’s happening?” Song Ling overheard snippets of the phone call.

“Mom, I don’t know how Fang Yuan did it, but FY blacklisted me! They even accused me of defaming their brand!” Fang Jiayi cried out in frustration. Why? She was already in a dreadful state, having not only lost face in public but also suffered significant financial losses. There was the added fear that her boyfriend might leave her. Wasn’t that enough? And now, they had gone so far as to blacklist her.. It was just too much!
