Chapter 50: Proud Scholar x Elite Lawyer 08

Kong Liang, who was in the capital of China, almost went mad after tasting the sweetness brought by his golden finger and then losing it completely.

His friends also woke up the moment Kong Liang lost his golden finger. They no longer contributed money and effort, like a big fool, and all kept their distance from him.

Although they couldn’t figure out what was going on, they knew there was something strange about Kong Liang.

Whenever they got close to him, they acted foolishly!

No one was a fool, and they weren’t burning money at home! Why should they give away their money for nothing!

In just a few months, the small group that Kong Liang had gathered with his golden finger and the protagonist’s aura had completely dispersed, and even his good fortune had returned to normal.

Now, he was back to his previous state of bad luck, a poor and ordinary guy, nothing special! He couldn’t blend into high society anymore!

But he still had a bit of a halo, and his rich and beautiful girlfriend hadn’t abandoned him. Instead, she was still trying hard to maintain his dignity.

Kong Liang, having lost everything, naturally clung tightly to his only remaining golden leg, using his sweet talk to keep his girlfriend wrapped around his finger.

Miss Fang, with her sharp eyes, became the biggest victim in this matter, being dragged down by her worthless boyfriend and thus losing her family’s support.

But she didn’t realize it, insisting that she and Kong Liang were true love.

“Money isn’t important, and neither are my parents. What’s important is that I can be with Kong Liang.”

“It’s just a simple life. As long as we can eat, it doesn’t matter what we eat.”

“As long as I can devote myself to the one I love and see him happy, that’s enough.”

Every time the Fang family parents heard this, they would get high blood pressure and didn’t want to see their ungrateful daughter anymore.

Only Miss Fang’s brother tried to wake her up, wanting to bring his sister back home instead of letting her live a hard life with Kong Liang in a rented apartment.

One afternoon, Young Master Fang visited again, deliberately choosing a time when Kong Liang wasn’t around, fearing that his sister would be influenced by him.

He said directly, “Sister, come home. Don’t talk to Kong Liang anymore.”

Fang Mian shook her head firmly, “I won’t leave. I want to share the hardships with Kong Liang.”

Young Master Fang’s face turned black, “Fang Mian! He can’t even support himself, let alone you. What right does he have to be with you?!”

Fang Mian glared at her brother, “Brother, you and Mom and Dad don’t understand love.”

“Love is about giving, not taking.”

Young Master Fang’s anger surged like a ball of fire in his heart, rising to his head, making him want to break Kong Liang’s legs.

“Can’t you see? He’s lying to you!”

“He cares about your status as Miss Fang and our family’s money.”

Fang Mian waved her hand, “No, that’s not true.”

“A man who loves you will lie to you.”

Young Master Fang almost fainted, too lazy to argue with his love-struck sister. He grabbed Fang Mian’s hand and tried to drag her out.

“Come home with me!”

“Apologize to Mom and Dad, and cut ties with Kong Liang completely. This will all be over.”

Fang Mian fiercely shook off his hand, “I won’t leave. I want to stay by Kong Liang’s side.”

Young Master Fang, furious, said, “Fang Mian, Mom and Dad raised you to help the poor or to suffer?”

Fang Mian said sincerely, “I’m not helping the poor. We are both moving towards each other.”

“You’re hopeless!!” Young Master Fang’s face turned even uglier, his eyes burning with anger, and the veins on his forehead pulsing.

“Don’t you know? Kong Liang is very strange. His friends around him are like they’ve been cursed, giving him money and connections.”

He shouted angrily, “Take the example of Young Master Xie, who was forced to go abroad. Have you forgotten his fate? He was expelled and cyberbullied, and all of this is related to Kong Liang.”

Fang Mian frowned, “Xie Qingjia’s expulsion and cyberbullying were his own fault. Don’t smear Kong Liang.”

Young Master Fang’s forehead throbbed, “Do you know that Kong Liang’s friends have all left him, and only you, the fool, are still following him?”

“Anyone with eyes can see his strangeness and wants to stay as far away from him as possible. Only you, the fool, still want to follow him.”

Fang Mian shook her head again, “I can’t bear to leave. I don’t want to leave Kong Liang…”
