Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 189 - 188: Clear Division of Labor

At this moment, the most leisurely person was undoubtedly Yun Ran and her companions.

Hei Mu Lianji’s courtyard was really nice; not only did it have sufficient living supplies, but behind the courtyard, there was also a fresh fruit and vegetable garden.

Yun Ran went to the vegetable garden, plucked a tender cucumber, wiped it carelessly, and then put it into her mouth.

With a ’crunch’, just by hearing the sound alone, one could tell how fresh and crispy the cucumber was.

"You’re really taking it easy, not at all like someone in hiding, more like someone on vacation. I just wonder if those people making a fuss outside are about to cough up blood~"

Taoist Xia was only keeping a low profile, but his network of contacts was no less extensive than Yun Ran’s or the Yun Family’s.

Even if he was temporarily blind, he still had a rough idea of what was happening outside.

Yun Ran chuckled lightly, sitting on the grass at ease.

It was at this time that she seemed to possess the innocence and cheerfulness of a young girl, completely different from her usual dependable and steady demeanor.

"This isn’t called being idle; it’s called clear division of labor. I’ve done what I needed to do, and the rest naturally doesn’t require my concern."

Perhaps influenced by Yun Ran’s nonchalance at this moment, Taoist Xia’s usually tense nerves also gradually relaxed.

He too reached out, plucking a tomato from the vegetable garden and took a bite. Mmm, the flavor of a naturally ripened tomato was very rich.

Neither of them felt any guilt for occupying someone else’s garden and picking their vegetables.

Yun Jinyang and his entourage did not immediately seek out the Xiyeno Family but instead checked into an international high-end chain membership hotel.

Upon arrival at the hotel, the bodyguard quickly inspected all the villas in area A that they had booked.

Yun Jinyang and Bartley Rolls stayed in two villas in the middle, tightly surrounded by other villas.

Yun Jinyang, who had been busy for several days, showed no sign of fatigue on his face. That’s why people say those in powerful positions seem to be made of iron, as if they never get tired.

As he opened the door to the villa, Yun Jinyang had no intention to rest and went straight to the study, followed by two assistants who hurried after him.

One of them took out their phone, opened an email, and began to report to Yun Jinyang.

"Young Master, according to reliable information, Xiyeno Natsuo is the one who previously seized Zhao Mingzhu’s assets ahead of time..."

The suspicions in his mind were finally answered, but Yun Jinyang was not at all surprised.

He just didn’t expect Xiyeno Natsuo to act so swiftly and ruthlessly, not even leaving a bit of scraps for others.

Had Xiyeno Natsuo not been so greedy—offending quite a few people in their circle in M Country—he might not have had the chance to collaborate with Bartley Rolls.

The betrayal by Yun Qing and Xiyeno Natsuo’s opportunistic plundering made Yun Jinyang extremely indignant.

But he was not impulsive, knowing that now was not the moment to strike back; he had planned to endure this matter. freewebnσvel.cøm

Yet unexpectedly, an opportunity fell into his lap, as if a twist of fate had occurred.

Even if Bartley Rolls had come with an ulterior motive, he didn’t mind. It was his gain to be able to kick an enemy when they were down.

The second assistant sent the revised electronic version of the claim document to Yun Jinyang.

"Master, per your previous request, the claim amount has been increased by an additional 200%."

Yun Jinyang, aware that Bartley was going to demand a lion’s share this time, stealthily doubled the compensation amount.

A businessman who doesn’t understand the art of bottom-fishing isn’t a good one.

"You should all go rest as well. Moreover, keep vigilant—after all, we’re in Yinghua Country. Don’t capsize in the gutter."

Once the assistants had departed, Yun Jinyang changed out of his suit, pushed open the glass door facing the bedroom, and saw a small swimming pool in the courtyard.

With a ’plop,’ Yun Jinyang dived into the pool; despite being busy for days, he was able to persist in swimming to stretch his muscles—a truly frightening level of self-discipline.

Xiyeno Natsuo wasn’t idle either. Yun Jinyang could investigate her matters, and naturally, she could look into others’.

"Miss, that Barry Rolls came specifically for you. Zhao Mingzhu did grow a few good ’dogs’, and they were the ones who accused you.

Furthermore, they incited some of Zhao Mingzhu’s lackeys. They hate you for betraying your friendship with Zhao Mingzhu and are planning to teach you a lesson."

Xiyeno Natsuo’s expression turned ashen with anger.

Previously, she was allies with Zhao Mingzhu, and their relationship wasn’t bad; naturally, she knew what kind of people Zhao Mingzhu’s lackeys were.

Among them was a sickly and capricious prince of the royal family, mad as a hatter, only Zhao Mingzhu could control him.

She had also witnessed how Zhao Mingzhu used this sickly prince to eliminate rivals and suppress those who opposed her.

Even she had indirectly benefited from these actions, but now, the gun turned and pointed at her, Xiyeno Natsuo suddenly felt choked up.

With a "slap", Xiyeno Natsuo slammed the table hard: "They dare use such tactics to pressure me; they are not worthy!"

Standing beside her was the same woman from the Lianwu Mountain villa, looking at Xiyeno Natsuo’s reddened palms, a trace of distress flashed in her eyes, then vanished in an instant, replaced again by a hint of murderous intent.

"Go find me a powerful Dark Master!"

She intended to make those who sought trouble with her regret it, leaving without return, and ensure nobody could trace it back to her.

Previously, she did not trust in such things; having grown up abroad, she was more familiar with tales of vampires and werewolves.

These domestic spirits, demons and ghosts, she had always scorned.

But ever since she learned that Eastern Dark Masters could call down Heavenly Thunder, and even the Helian Family worshipped an unknown grandmaster, she began to entertain a different idea.

If only she had known, she would have kept that Nine Yang Grass; having given it away, she not only failed to get what she wanted but also suffered a loss.

As high-profile as she had been initially, when the Helian Family’s representative brought shares of a sunset industry business to her doorstep, the scoffers were rampant.

This made Xiyeno Natsuo, who always had things go her way, frustrated, feeling as though she had attracted trouble since returning to her home country.

If not for her grandfather taking the brunt of the family’s dissatisfaction, her troubles would be even greater.

But Xiyeno Natsuo was not one to self-reflect, nor did she think she made any mistakes; she only regretted not having acted ruthlessly before.

Now that Zhao Mingzhu was in dire straits, only she knew where Zhao Mingzhu’s core resources were.

She should not have been the first to rush in; she should have waited for others to make their move and then reap the benefits, thus avoiding being schemed against.

And that Yun Qing, she should have just crushed her directly, leaving no chance for her to bite back.
