From Riches to Rags

"Miss Fang, I hope you can consider our proposal carefully. We are very sincere. If you have thought it through, you can call me anytime."

Fang Tong gripped her phone tightly. Tears gathered in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.

In less than three days, the Fang Corporation announced bankruptcy and liquidation. As the company's largest shareholder, her father had always been eccentric. Her fragile mother couldn't bear the blow and jumped off a building to commit suicide. In just one night, Fang Tong had gone from the princess of the Fang family who was high and mighty to being burdened with a huge amount of debt.

"Miss Fang, we have already checked your things. You can take them with you."

The villa had been mortgaged to the bank before her father went missing. Now that the company had gone bankrupt and Fang Tong couldn't pay back the bank loan, the bank had to take back the villa and chase Fang Tong out. They even had to check her luggage one by one. They were afraid that she would run away with some large amount of property.

After zipping up the luggage again, Fang Tong pushed it with an expressionless face. She turned around and took one last look at the villa that she had lived in for more than twenty years before leaving.

Fang Tong walked along a small path from the villa to the door. The best time of her life had been spent in this courtyard. Now, she was the only one left, fleeing in a sorry state.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Fang? Where are you dragging a suitcase to? Why don't I give you a ride?"

On the private road outside the villa, a big red sedan stopped in front of Fang Tong. The passenger rolled down the window, revealing a charming face. It was the Wen family's daughter, Wen Wanyi.

The Wen family's villa was also in this area, but it was close to the lakeside. It wasn't as good as the Fang family's villa in terms of location and value.

Wen Wanyi and Fang Tong were around the same age and neighbors. Since young, the two of them had been compared by the elders in the community. From looks to wealth, education, and ability, Fang Tong had always crushed Wen Wanyi.

But now, the Fang family had gone bankrupt, and the princess had become a commoner. All her looks, education, and ability had become unworthy of mention. Wen Wanyi instantly overshadowed Fang Tong.

"There's no need!"

Fang Tong didn't want to tangle with her any longer and wanted to go around the car. However, Wen Wanyi had made up her mind to humiliate her. She deliberately drove the car and chased after her. She refused to give way.

"What on Earth are you trying to do!" Fang Tong was slightly angry.

"We're friends. I just want to give you a ride. Don't be so unreasonable!"

Wen Wanyi smiled happily. "This is where wealthy families live. Do you think it's those slums, where you can just walk out of the door and hail a taxi? I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until nightfall for a taxi to pick you up."

"This is my matter. You don't have to worry about it!"

Wen Wanyi smiled and pushed the door open to get out, "That's right. Miss Fang is a princess who is high up in the world. She doesn't need us nobodies to worry about her. However, do you have the money to hail a taxi now? The Fang Corporation owes so much money. Those people at the bank probably won't even let you take a single copper coin with you!"

Fang Tong pursed her lips tightly.

"Fang Tong, I came here today to tell you a piece of good news."

"What do you want to say?" Fang Tong glared at her.

"I've already signed up for the auction three days later. From now on, this villa's ownership will be changed to the Wen family. When the time comes, I'll tear down the interior and renovate it. When the renovation is complete, I'll invite you to my house as a guest!"

Wen Wanyi emphasized the word 'my house'.
