Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 198 - 197: Messing with the Wrong Person

In a corner not far away, someone was eyeing Yun Ran’s little stall, dumbfounded as they watched the sturdy man they had entrusted with a task just walking away.

"Boss, what’s the meaning of this? Didn’t we agree to have him cause trouble, smash some stuff, and then we go out and play the good guys? Now he just left?"

The man called Boss furrowed his brows slightly, his gaze fixed on Yun Ran. He had been watching this young girl for a while.

Her youthful face, with a hint of naiveté, was very popular with the big shots.

He had already thought up more than a dozen scams to willingly exploit her, but unexpectedly, they failed right from the start.

"Boss, do we need to find someone else?"

"No need. This street is under the control of White-tailed Eagle. If people knew our men were seen here, getting caught by White-tailed Eagle and beaten to death would be a minor issue."

If they could afford to make moves on their own, they wouldn’t have bothered to send that strong man to cause trouble; after all, the business they were involved in wasn’t honorable.

In other places, messing around wasn’t much of an issue, but on White-tailed Eagle’s turf, no one dared to stir trouble.

They had already alarmed their quarry, so they couldn’t make another move.

"Keep an eye on her for now. Follow her when she leaves."

"Understood."

Yun Ran then told a few more free fortunes; there weren’t any serious issues. Some involved health troubles, others family disputes, but strictly speaking, they were all minor matters.

Seeing the sky darken, Yun Ran also packed up her things, preparing to go back.

She had just left the street when she noticed someone following her.

However, she did not turn back; she continued at her original pace, slowly making her way home.

When she reached the corner of a street, Yun Ran leaned against a wall, holding a cup of milk tea, which seemed to give off a slightly sorrowful vibe.

The person following her hurriedly chased after her, and just then, came face to face with Yun Ran.

The two looked at each other for a few moments, creating an awkward scene.

"Why are you guys following me?"

The face of the man leading the group darkened; their prey this time seemed different from before, but even if it was different, what of it?

There were hardly any people around at the moment, not even a few car shadows, so they could drop the niceties.

The man reached out his hand, trying to grab Yun Ran—to cover her mouth and silently whisk her away unnoticed.

Yun Ran finished her last sip of milk tea and threw the cup in her hand at them.

Being hit by a cup isn’t very painful, but it sure is humiliating.

This truly annoyed those who were following her, and several of them rushed towards Yun Ran, aiming not to damage her face.

Yun Ran didn’t warm up with neck twists like she usually did before striking.

Seeing the attackers rush toward her, only then did Yun Ran lift her leg and kick out, sending someone flying several meters away.

Even during the kick, a few crisp crack sounds were heard, clearly indicating broken ribs.

"What a useless bunch!"

Having cursed them out, Yun Ran flung the small iron box she was holding, which contained some simple street vendor tools.

The weight was moderate, but when it hit someone, it really hurt.

In less than ten seconds, the four men following Yun Ran were beat down so badly they couldn’t stand up again, each having suffered several fractures.

Watching the men on the ground clutch at their injuries and wail in pain, Yun Ran slowly approached them.

Her little leather shoes sounded exceptionally clear in such a quiet environment, their "tap tap tap" like a Death Sentence tapping on the hearts of the men.

The men tried to hold back the pain and inch away. At this point, they clearly understood they had messed with someone they shouldn’t have.

"Mercy...mercy..."

Seeing these men who just moments ago sought to do evil and now transformed into victims, their faces were filled with terror as if Yun Ran was King Yan coming to take their lives.

"If you want me to spare you, tell me what you were really up to!"

Upon hearing this, the men who had been begging desperately for mercy all clamped their mouths shut, their faces turning pale. Offending the demoness in front of them might get them killed at worst.

But if they revealed their true identities, what awaited them was a fate worse than death, even their families would suffer merciless treatment.

[Host, these guys don’t look the least bit honest. I say, just use a Truth Spell on them.]

Ginsengfruit enjoyed the turmoil and wasn’t worried about things getting too heated. People who were subjected to a Truth Spell had their auras broken and were likely to be contaminated with unclean things in the future.

Such dog-things like them didn’t deserve any mercy.

"They don’t deserve it!"

Saying so, Yun Ran released the Female Ghost King: "Go and scare them, these people clearly have done many guilty deeds!"

The Female Ghost King, who was worried about not being valued by her master and feared being sent back at any time, seized the opportunity to perform with great effort.

She could hold the position of middle head in the Ghost Traders, and this was not only because of her Level as a Great Ghost King but also due to her extreme ferocity.

Especially towards those weaker than her, she was particularly vicious.

She immediately flew towards the injured men, baring her teeth and claws.

Yun Ran, meanwhile, placed the small iron box on the ground and sat down on it with a lazy slouch, as she would definitely not stand when she could sit.

Soon, from not too far away, there were sounds of ghostly wailing and wolf howling, and those people, due to their injuries, had no chance to flee and could only passively endure the fright from the Ghost King.

After a few minutes, the Female Ghost King returned, like a general who had won a battle.

[Master, I have fulfilled your trust, and I’ve figured it out. They are a group of scammers and human traffickers, with a specialty in abducting naive girls.

Tricking people with promises of advertising or photo shoots, those they deceive are then ranked into various levels; the good-looking ones are sold, the less attractive are pushed into cosmetic loan scams, accruing various debts.

In short, they suck the life out of anyone who falls into their hands. They had marked you as an S-level commodity and had already contacted a buyer.]

Ghosts are said to be void of emotions, but now, the Female Ghost King felt a flicker of rage: these dog-things dared to make a move on her master, she wouldn’t scare them to death!

Yun Ran looked at the men lying on the ground, scared half to death, with some having lost control of their bladders, and her eyes filled with deep disgust.

The young girl who had her fortune told today, her fate was originally destined to fall into the hands of the scamming group in order to save her so-called friends.
