Chapter 248 – “Zhong Yi is my only adopted daughter.” (2)

The incident had hurt the reputation of both Li WangJin and the Zhang family’s Yifang Corporation. For the sake of quelling the anger of the consumers, they had recalled all the Cherry Blossom Pills and announced that they had all been destroyed. Not even a single box was left.

Now that they had reappeared on the market, one of two things might have happened. Either someone got their hands on the formula of the Cherry Blossom Pills – a despicable act like this was not above the Zhang family.

Or that they did not destroy all of their inventory as they had claimed.

As many speculations as she might have, she could not do much other than wait and see.

The police were more efficient than she had expected and, after obtaining the code from the ones that they had arrested, they set up a sting as buyers. They were able to arrest the other party at the exchange site and follow them to the entire counterfeit operation.

Fang JunRong, after receiving the notification from the police, rushed over immediately. She wanted to find out what was going on.

When she arrived, the police pointed out to her the ones that they had captured. They had initially thought that it would be a large group of dozens of individuals but the group was surprisingly small. Fang JunRong took and look and there were five of them total. The woman sitting farthest away from her had very long hair and perfectly covered up her face. Her body shape looked familiar though.

Another woman, looked to be around 20 or so, with dyed yellow hair complained in an aggrieved voice, “We sold them Cherry Blossom Pills. They were the ones who took them and sold overseas to foreigners as Cherry Blossom Pills. How is that our problem? Am I right, YaGe?”

She turned and said to the woman sitting in the back.

YaGe?

Something clicked in Fang JunRong’s mind. Jiang YaGe? She had stooped to the level of selling counterfeits already?

Looking at the woman in the corner, she asked calmly, “Is that you, YaGe?”

Jiang YaGe, who had remained silent with her head lowered the entire time looked up. She looked as delicate as she used to and also very aggrieved.

As much as Jiang YaGe had prepared herself mentally, when she ran into Fang JunRong again with her high and mighty mannerism just like the first day that they met, she felt an overwhelming sense of inferiority complex. After splitting up with Fang JueMing, she was forced to leave what was once her love nest. Fang JueMing was a ruthless one, he straight up sold that apartment and moved away. Leaving Jiang YaGe with no chance of trying to get back together. It had crossed her mind to expose their relationship online in order to force him into reaching out to her; nevertheless, as soon as she posted anything, she would be mocked she had lost her mind in her pursuit of stardom and was making all kinds of things up. Nobody would believe that she had once dated Fang JueMing and he had long since erased all pictures of them together from her cellphone.

She had nowhere else to go nor did she dare to go back to Li ShiZe so she had no choice but to rent a place on her own. She had some money but she worried that they would be depleted and she needed to look for a job. It was difficult going from riches to rags. Plus, it was very difficult for one who had dropped out of college to get a decent job and she refused to become a waitress.

When she saw that Beautify Pills and Hair Growing Cream were well received overseas, she had an idea to become a contracted buyer. However, she would need to have a VISA to leave the country and that would not be something else to get for someone in her current situation. She recalled the Cherry Blossom Pills and gave Zhang Bi a tentative call.

Zhang Bi was going to hang up on her but, surprisingly, agreed to give her all of the Cherry Blossom Pills for free.

With those products in hand, Jiang YaGe thought she could fetch a good price for them. Should she be able to sell them all, she should be able to purchase a house in the suburb. At least she would have a place to stay in the future.

She had not expected that she would be arrested so quickly. And, just half an hour ago, when she was being interrogated, she gave up Zhang Bi. Zhang Bi headed to the police station and expressed that he had given them to her for free as a friendly gesture and had no idea that she would be selling them overseas as counterfeits.

As such, Zhang Bi was released quickly and leaving only the few of them there, frazzled.

Looking up at Fang JunRong, Jiang YaGe’s lips moved a little. She seemed to want to call her Mom reflexively.

As though sensing that, Fang JunRong interrupted her, “Do not disgust me further. That’s not a title for you to use.

“Zhong Yi is my only adopted daughter.”
