The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 3: A Moment of Patience Leads to a Collapse of Moral Will

"With your qualifications, you would have been more than qualified to go to the headquarters in Haicheng, but you are unwilling to leave Qingshui Town because your senior brother disappeared here."

The old policeman's face darkened when Yun Ran revealed that he had a problem.

Now, after hearing Yunran explain why he stayed in Qingshui Town and didn't want to leave...

The old policeman's hands were clenched so tightly that the veins were bulging, and he thought to himself: I absolutely cannot let Yun Ran continue.

However, before he could interrupt Yunran, Yunran stopped on her own initiative.

"Should I continue?"

The rooms where people were questioned were all videotaped. The case involved a lot of things, and we absolutely couldn't expose them easily.

At this moment, the veteran policeman's vigilance towards Yun Ran had reached its highest level.

But he didn't think that Yunran had calculated it. Instead, he felt that Yunran must know something. If she weren't so young, he would have thought that Yunran had been involved back then.

"Anyone who can search online and read related reports knows about these things; there's nothing surprising about them."

Seeing that the old policeman was still stubborn, Yun Ran was not annoyed. If a policeman could trust people so easily, that would be a disaster.

The stalemate didn't last long before the Yun family arrived, but in the eyes of others, she was a real troublemaker, so only an assistant and a lawyer came.

No matter how much the Yun family dislikes Yun Ran, as long as she remains the third young lady of the Yun family, the Yun family will have to clean up her messes.

As soon as she left the police station, the lawyer gave her a few brief instructions and then handed her a key to an apartment.

"What Madam means is that you should stay here and work on your temper, and don't go back to the old house for the time being. If anything happens in the future, just call me."

Yun Ran forced a smile. This was hardly a biological mother. Many stepmothers had to pretend to be one just to save face.

After the lawyer took Yun Ran back to the Yun family's apartment in Qingshui Town, he left.

"Tch, I don't even want to go to the Yun family's old mansion and have to put up with your attitude!"

The Yun family owned orchards and tea plantations in the area, which were not considered high-quality assets by them, so they were assigned to a collateral relative of the Yun family for management.

These collateral branches treated the rest of the Yun family with utmost deference, while she was a burden brought by Qu Ying. They were polite on the surface, but gossiped about her behind her back.

Qu Ying clearly knew everything, but she let it all go unchecked for the sake of her so-called public image.

Yun Ran was truly angry. If it weren't for the fact that she still had guardianship in the Yun family, she would have wanted to ruin the Yun family in a heartbeat.

But she couldn't possibly endure it. After all, she wasn't a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Others could endure for a while and things would remain calm, but for her, enduring for a while would cause her Dao heart to collapse.

That very night, she called Meng Yue, the mistress of her stepfather Yun Shaotang, and told them she had to cause them some trouble!

When Meng Yue heard Yun Ran's call, she was so frightened that she wanted to hang up. After all, the original owner of this body had almost ruined Qu Ying's face in order to protect Qu Ying's interests.

However, when Qu Ying found out about this, she blamed the original owner for being cruel, but instead showed extra pity and tolerance towards Meng Yue, the mistress.

Not only did they arrange a life for the mother and son, but they also gave them a large sum of money as a so-called resettlement allowance.

Her magnanimity immediately won the approval of everyone in the Yun family. Yun Shaotang even transferred a villa to Qu Ying's name, making her the biggest winner.

This left the original owner, the young girl who had stood up for herself, in a lose-lose situation, completely turning her into a clown.

On the other end of the phone, Meng Yue said cautiously, "Third Miss, I haven't gone to see your father again, really, I swear!"

"No, you have to go find him!" Meng Yue was almost crying. All she wanted was wealth and status; she didn't want to risk her life.

"Third Miss..."

"Either you go find my stepfather, or I'll come find you. You decide!"

Meng Yue was already afraid of Yun Ran, and now that many people say Yun Ran is a little madwoman, she is even more afraid.

"Okay, I'll go, I'll go!"

After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran felt refreshed. She would take back everything the original owner had done for Qu Ying, one by one.

She wanted to see if the Yun family could still live in harmony as before, without the original owner drawing all the fire in front of her and concentrating all the conflicts of the Yun family on her alone.

Will Qu Ying, this unassuming and virtuous Mrs. Yun, truly be able to live a peaceful and tranquil life?

After three leisurely days, I've finally gotten used to my current identity.

After staying up all night watching dramas, Yun Ran was sleeping soundly when there was a knock on the door.

Yunran yawned, opened the door, looked at the old policeman in plain clothes, and couldn't help but mutter, "Why are you only arriving now?"

The old policeman's name was Song Ye. He had someone keep an eye on Yun Ran for a few days, only to be told that the guy was incredibly lazy and hadn't left his house even once in three whole days.

He had no choice but to go in person.

"You knew I was coming?"

“You’ve had people monitoring me for days, and there’s been no result. You have to come and do it yourself.”

Song Ye was stunned for a moment.

Then Yunran continued to yawn: "I'll go change my clothes, and then I'll take you to find your senior brother!"

Song Ye, who had been able to keep his composure just moments before, has now truly lost his composure. He has been a policeman for over twenty years and has never been so easily flustered as he is today.

Yun Ran quickly changed into a white jumpsuit and slung a crossbody bag over her shoulder: "Let's go."

Despite having many questions in his mind, Song Ye followed after her, wanting to see what Yun Ran was up to.

Once outside, Yun Ran didn't stand on ceremony and got into Song Ye's passenger seat without any hesitation, treating herself as if she were an outsider.

Leaning back in his seat, he closed his eyes and said, "Head southeast for half an hour, and you'll see your senior brother. Don't disturb my sleep during this time."

Perhaps it was Yunran's confident expression that made Song Ye unable to resist doing as she said.

Half an hour passed quickly. Looking at the desolate land in front of him, Song Ye's eyes gradually filled with suspicion. He was almost about to ask Yun Ran if she was playing a trick on him.

Yun Ran opened her eyes at the perfect moment and pointed in a direction: "He will pass by here in one minute. If you miss this opportunity, you will never have the chance to meet again."

Song Ye's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes were fixed on the direction Yun Ran was pointing.

One minute later, a man completely covered up suddenly appeared, looking extremely eerie.

Not far away, the other police officers who had come with Song Ye's car saw their captain get out of the car and rush towards the stranger, and they instantly became alert.

Before Song Ye even got close to the man whose eyes were the only part of his body, he smelled a very unpleasant odor, but he didn't find it offensive.
