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

Chapter 35 Is it really that easy to earn merit these days?
With the three-tailed fox's true form, we can find its escaped spirit and the people it captured.

As soon as Yun Ran turned around, a great deal of golden light of merit surged into her body, leaving her completely astonished.

Even the ginseng fruit was somewhat shocked: [Host, is it really that easy to earn merit points these days?]

"Shouldn't this be a question for you? After all, you're the one who dug up this world in the book, how would I know!"

Ginseng Fruit's voice immediately trailed off: "Um, I'm currently low on energy, so some function panels won't open and don't support queries..."

Yunran is a good-natured person, otherwise she would have been driven crazy by the ginseng fruit.

"Ding"

When Yunran checked her phone and saw the 100 million yuan that had just been deposited into her account, her mood instantly soared.

"The Special Administration Bureau is really generous. They said they were short of funds. Sure enough, with the Xie family in charge, things are different."

Xie Xuzhi, whom Yun Ran mentioned, was listening to the report from his subordinates, his eyes practically brimming with amusement.

"Has Master Qingmu discerned where she came from?"

The man shook his head: "Master Qingmu said that this student Yunran is highly skilled, probably even more so than him."

Xie Xuzhi immediately laughed: "Heh~ I really didn't expect that under the jurisdiction of the Special Management, someone with profound strength could suddenly appear out of nowhere, but whose origins are unknown. This is quite interesting."

Upon seeing the deputy director's smile, the man silently mourned for Yun Ran for a few seconds.

If they've got their eyes on you, even if there's nothing wrong with you, you're probably going to suffer a lot.

"Have the personnel in each branch office thoroughly investigate the situation in their respective jurisdictions. If this kind of thing happens again and is reported by outsiders, they will bear the consequences!"

These words were spoken in a very calm tone, but the man felt a chill run straight to the top of his head: "Yes!"

After Yunran returned to the main group, she became listless again, as if she were a soulless puppet, at the mercy of others.

Just as the group was about to cross the road, a stray cat suddenly darted out from the green belt and lunged at Yunran's arm with its claws.

The chubby boy next to him, who was struggling to walk with a cane, suddenly became a nimble chubby boy, quickly poking forward with his cane.

The wildcat let out a pitiful "howl," then crashed to the ground, immediately scrambled to its feet, and ran off, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Yunran, are you alright?!"

Seeing the chubby boy's flushed face covered in sweat, and his anxious questioning, Yun Ran's anger, which had just risen, immediately subsided.

"fine."

What just happened happened so fast that no one had time to react before it was over.

But it still frightened a lot of people, who quickly avoided the green belt, fearing that stray cats or dogs might jump out from there.

"Damn, that stray cat is terrifying! If I had been scratched by that claw, it would have left a really deep scar!"

"I really didn't expect Zhu Shijia to react so quickly."

"I was just laughing at him. He's so young, yet he needs a cane to walk even a few steps. Luckily he bought one, otherwise, who knows how many people this stray cat would have hurt."

……

The teachers leading the group were also startled, even though it was an unexpected incident.

But if these young masters and ladies were actually injured by stray cats right under their noses, they would certainly be scolded.

They quickly stepped forward to comfort the frightened students, while the security guards also became extremely vigilant.

The plan to visit the tourist attractions was immediately disrupted. The tour leader arranged for everyone to rest in a coffee shop before rushing off to handle the follow-up matters.

[Host, that cat was coming for you!]

Yunran knew this, which was why she was so angry.

But the wild cat didn't seem to have developed any intelligence; instead, it attacked her. For a moment, she suspected that the three-tailed fox demon was responsible.

But Yunran quickly dismissed this suspicion.

She received a call from the Yun family, instructing her to return to their home immediately, without fail, tonight.

Otherwise, they would exercise their rights as guardians and have her kidnapped and taken back to the palace.

Previously, the Yun family still cared about saving face and found an excuse to have the school cancel her study abroad qualification.

Now, it's blatant disrespect for her as a person.

After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran's expression was rather unpleasant; it had been a long time since anyone had managed to provoke her like this.

The male and female leads won't stop until they've used her as a tool to the fullest extent.

[Host, your luck is almost completely depleted. You can't go against the male and female leads. Otherwise, there will be even bigger trouble. The wild cat that came at you just now was a warning.]

If you were still in the original body, such a warning would probably have resulted in the punishment of having your legs or arms broken.

"I see!"

Although the ginseng fruit was advising Yunran not to go against the male and female protagonists, it was still somewhat uncomfortable to see the host accepting it so calmly.

It's a bit of a shame that its arsenal only contains such devastating weapons; otherwise, it would have given those crazy old folks a good beating!
Yunran told Song Qi that she wanted to go home and asked him to send someone to take her back. Song Qi was only stunned for a moment before nodding and making the arrangements.

But my mind had already filled in a whole bunch of random thoughts, which finally boiled down to this: being a burden in a wealthy family isn't so easy. No wonder Yun Ran had such a bad reputation before.

When they boarded the bus back to Haicheng, the chubby boy and Qu Ziwei were still a little reluctant to part. Now they had a revolutionary friendship.

"After the study tour ends, I'll invite you to my house."

"These are cards for my family's restaurant and club. You can eat and drink for free, so please don't be shy with me."

……

That evening, Yun Ran returned to the Yun family villa, where the main building was brightly lit.

As soon as I stepped through the door, a group of people inside all turned to look at me.

These people were clearly waiting for her; judging from their posture, it was quite like a joint trial.

Yun Ran had calmed down and walked in unhurriedly.

Yun Wan, who had always been at odds with Yun Ran, wore a gloating expression on her face: "You still have the nerve to come back!"

The elders of the Yun family, upon hearing Yun Wan's words, did not intend to reprimand her.

This is yet another instance of using Yun Wan as a scapegoat, pinning charges on her before she even gets a chance to speak.

They scolded her without making themselves seem harsh as elders; to outsiders, it was just a children's quarrel.

The original owner's bad reputation stemmed from these subtle forms of suppression and being manipulated and betrayed by his own mother.
