Chapter 918: Being cheated during the New Year
The weather in the capital is slowly getting colder, but the atmosphere of the Spring Festival is getting stronger and stronger.

Since taking the art exam, Fang Yifan's study has become much easier.

Since he no longer needs to take vocal and dance lessons, half of his time is suddenly free.

Regardless of whether it is Beiwu or Nortel, the admission score for cultural courses is not high. Now that Fang Yifan can score more than 600 points, as long as his grades do not drop, cultural courses can also be relaxed.

His road to the college entrance examination can be said to be halfway over, so he is destined to have a good year.

The Spring Festival holiday for the senior class of Chunfeng Middle School is very short, only five days, from the [-]th to the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year, and they have to report to class on the [-]th day of the lunar month.

After Wang Gang and Tong Wenjie divorced, they naturally couldn't spend the New Year together. Considering that Tong Wenjie didn't have any relatives at home, Fang Yifan was asked to go to Wang Gang's place to celebrate the New Year.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Wang Gang and Li Yao came to pick up Fang Yifan to go to his grandparents' house.

Wang Gang took Li Yao to meet his parents as early as New Year's Day.

Fang's father and Fang's mother were quite polite to Li Yao. They just asked about the family situation casually, neither enthusiastic nor cold.

Maybe they also feel that Wang Gang and Li Yao can't last long.

In fact, Wang Gang and Li Yao had a very good relationship. After the two lived together, Li Yao even relied on Wang Gang. Although she did not press for marriage, she mentioned it in and out of words, but Wang Gang was just pretending to be confused.

It's not that he doesn't want to be responsible, he just thinks it's too fast. He's afraid that Li Yao is just impulsive, so he wants to wait.

Although Fang Yifan has a good attitude towards Li Yao, it is really difficult for him to accept a stepmother now.

Wang Gang plans to wait until his son goes to college to live on campus before considering marriage.

"Wait for me downstairs for a while." Wang Gang took Li Yao's hand and walked downstairs to Building 2.

"Come up together." Li Yao said firmly.

Wang Gang thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, and took Li Yao to Tong Wenjie's house.

Fang Yifan opened the door and was obviously shocked when he saw Li Yao.

"Teacher Li Yao." Fang Yifan called, then turned to look at his mother in the room.

When Tong Wenjie saw Li Yao, she didn't show anything strange and even invited her to sit in the room.

"Li Yao is here! Come in quickly, it's very cold outside."

Tong Wenjie is also a smart person. When she realized that her marriage to her husband was completely over, she looked away from many things.

"Sister Tong." Li Yao also has high emotional intelligence and takes the initiative to build a good relationship with Tong Wenjie.

"Fanfan, give Teacher Li Yao a cup of tea." Tong Wenjie said politely.

"You're welcome, Fangyuan and I are here to pick up Fanfan." Li Yao refused.

Fang Yifan looked at his mother and then at Li Yao, standing there at a loss.

"What are you doing standing still? Go get dressed quickly. Remember to say hello to my grandparents when you get to their house." Tong Wenjie yelled at her son.

Fang Yifan got excited, picked up his coat and left. He felt that the atmosphere in the room was too weird.

"Dad, I'm ready."

Wang Gang nodded, turned to Tong Wenjie and said, "I'll send Fanfan back tomorrow."

"Don't forget to make an appointment with Song Qian and Liu Jing to get together tomorrow," Tong Wenjie reminded.

"Don't worry! I won't forget it." Wang Gang helped Fang Yifan put on his coat and then went out.

The moment she closed the door, Tong Wenjie couldn't help feeling sad anymore.

"Auntie, I will celebrate the New Year with you." Lin Lei'er came over and said to Tong Wenjie.

"Okay, let's make dumplings for the Chinese New Year today." Tong Wenjie cheered up and showed a smile.

"Auntie, I want to eat dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage." Lin Leier said.

"Okay, my aunt will cook it for you. It's just the two of us at home today. We can eat whatever we want!" Tong Wenjie nodded.

At this time, the doorbell rang. Tong Wenjie opened it and saw that it was Song Qian who came with Qiao Yingzi.

"Wenjie, let's celebrate the New Year together today." Song Qian pushed Qiao Yingzi into the room and said with a smile.

"Aren't you celebrating the New Year with Qiao Weidong?" Tong Wenjie asked strangely.

"My dad has to deal with the company's affairs. Come over in the afternoon." Qiao Yingzi didn't see Fang Yifan and couldn't help but ask: "Where is Fang Hou'er?"

"He went to his grandparents' house to celebrate the New Year." Tong Wenjie explained.

"Leaving so early." Qiao Yingzi said strangely: "I still want to play Lego with him for a while."

"Let Lei'er play with you for a while!" Tong Wenjie called Lin Lei'er to accompany Qiao Yingzi.

Qiao Yingzi was a little disappointed, but she still started playing with Lin Lei'er.On the other side, Wang Gang drove Li Yao and Fang Yifan to his grandparents' house. The conversation among the three people in the car always revolved around music, but there was no silence.

Father Fang and mother Fang were overjoyed to see their eldest grandson, and blamed them for arriving late.

Fang Yifan was very good at making his grandparents happy and made them laugh. Wang Gang and Li Yao sat aside and chatted.

"By the way, Fangyuan, your mother and I have recently taken a fancy to a financial product. Please take a look at it." Father Fang suddenly remembered something and brought over a contract.

"Didn't I tell you not to touch financial management and investment?" Wang Gang said speechlessly.

"This one is different. It is a financial management service provided by a bank, with guaranteed returns. Many of our neighbors have bought it," Fang's father explained.

Wang Gang looked at the contract and frowned.

"The manager of the bank said that this financial product has a high return on investment. If you invest [-] yuan, you will get [-] yuan in interest in three months." Father Fang asked.

"This is not a bank financial product at all." Wang Gang put down the contract and said, "And the contract states that 10 yuan cannot be withdrawn within three years, and additional handling fees will be charged for early withdrawal."

"Then don't take it out! Anyway, your mother and I don't have much use for money, so we just save it. Look at how high the interest rate is!"

Wang Gang said worriedly: "Dad, you and my mother didn't recommend anyone else to buy it, right?"

In the original plot, Fang's father and Fang's mother not only bought financial management, but also encouraged relatives and friends to buy it. In the end, not only did they lose everything, but they also lost a lot of money, forcing Fang Yuan and Tong Wenjie to sell their houses to pay off their debts.

"No." Father Fang said, "Didn't you say that I need to inform you before buying financial management? If you don't agree, how dare we buy it."

Wang Gang saw that the contract was signed and guessed that his parents had lied.

Li Yao pushed Wang Gang's arm, signaling the New Year's Eve to stop making trouble.

"You guys should get your money back as soon as possible, even if you lose a little bit." Wang Gang reminded: "I think there is something wrong with this contract."

"Is the bank's financial management still bad?" Mother Fang said in disbelief.

Li Yao explained: "Uncle and aunt, there are many scam companies renting a place in the bank lobby, using the guise of a bank to trick the elderly into investing. In fact, they have nothing to do with the bank."

Wang Gang picked up the contract and said, "Didn't you read the contract? There is not even a word about bank in it. You signed the contract with a company you have never heard of."

Fang's father and mother were stunned, and quickly took over the contract. They took out their reading glasses and looked at it, but they really couldn't find any information about the bank.

"How could the bank do this? Isn't this a partnership to defraud us?" Fang's father finally put down the contract angrily.

"I'll call the manager right away and get the money back." Father Fang picked up the phone and said.

After dialing three numbers in a row, no one answered. Father Fang was completely worried.

"Yuanyuan, the phone can't get through, what should we do?" Father Fang was completely panicked.

Wang Gang asked seriously: "How much money did you invest?"

"It's only one hundred thousand, I don't dare to invest more. Haven't you always reminded us to be careful not to be deceived!" Mother Fang said with a bitter face.

"Didn't you just say you didn't vote?" Wang Gang sometimes has nothing to do with these old people.

Old children, old children, the older they get, the less sensible they become. That’s absolutely true.

"Yuanyuan, please think of a solution quickly! That 10 yuan is the coffin book for your mother and I." Father Fang said urgently.

Wang Gang said: "If you try to contact me again, but you really can't contact me, call the police immediately. I hope the money can be recovered."

Father Fang continued to call, and Mother Fang was no longer in the New Year mood.

An hour later, Fang's father called countless times, but no one answered, so they had no choice but to call the police.

After verification, the police determined that Fang’s father and mother had encountered a fraud group.

I went to the police station on New Year's Eve. Wang Gang had a very special New Year.

But what made him even more angry was that the police asked Fang's father and mother if anyone else had been deceived, and they reported a lot of names.

"Didn't you say you didn't trick others into buying it?" Wang Gang said speechlessly.

Father Fang and mother Fang lowered their heads at the same time and said hesitantly: "We received the first installment of 9000 yuan in interest, and our neighbor Lao Kong insisted on buying it, and there was nothing I could do."

"Are you showing off to your neighbors?" Wang Gang said, covering his forehead.

Fang's father and Fang's mother stopped talking.

"How many people bought it and how much did it cost in total?" Wang Gang asked.

Father Fang thought for a moment and said, "About ten neighbors! I don't know how much it will cost."

The police asked Fang's father to write down everyone's names, and they went door to door to verify.

This year is destined to be difficult!Wang Gang could only ask Li Yao to send Fang Yifan back to Tong Wenjie first!
