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

Chapter 6 Do I owe her something?!
Yunran suddenly shivered. She had seen many cruel and vicious people, but she had never seen a mother who would exploit her child so thoroughly.

This person is the female lead, that's terrifying.

"Ginseng Fruit, are you sure this book is a legitimate one? This kind of person is supposed to be the white moonlight heroine? This is even more terrifying than evil cultivators! They devour people without spitting out the bones!"

[Ding dong, congratulations host, new storyline unlocked!]

[Host, the original owner of this body was a rare person with both good fortune and longevity, yet she died such a miserable and aggrieved death because her luck was completely drained!]

"Is it Qu Ying? But I didn't find any way she could absorb people's luck."

That's all the clues for the new storyline. The rest requires unlocking new story points to find the answers.

Yunran: ...

She knew that surviving wouldn't be easy; there would definitely be a lot of trouble waiting for her!

However, at this moment, the bounty was the most important thing on her mind.

The Yun family returned to pay respects to their ancestors because the old lady of the Yun family was seriously ill. They consulted a master who said there was a problem with the ancestral graves, which led to this half-month-long ritual.

She needed to take advantage of the fact that the Yun family was too busy to deal with her and get this matter settled as soon as possible.

Otherwise, given Qu Ying's penchant for being generous with other people's money, she would definitely have disposed of the bonus to maximize her own interests.

The next morning, Yunran went to the police station to wait, after the confrontation with the Xie family and the discovery of Huazhao.

Everyone at the police station knows Yun Ran.

They thoroughly investigated Yunran and dispelled their suspicions about her.

In particular, Yunran protected her mother like a little hedgehog, which resulted in her being disgraced, while her mother had an excellent reputation in high society.

Many families with daughters couldn't help but feel sorry for Yunran, thinking she was a pitiful person, and their attitude towards her became much kinder.

They are different from those who blindly follow the crowd, and they have no vested interests. They can look at these things objectively and see through the tricks involved.

Seeing Yun Ran's eyes darting around, the vice-captain couldn't help but laugh and say, "You've come to ask about the bounty?"

"Ang~"

Fearing that the police might say she was under 18 and needed a guardian to accompany her, Yunran quickly handed over the documents she had tricked from the lawyer.

"The authorization documents are all here!"

The deputy captain took it and glanced at it, especially noticing the fresh seal inside, without asking about anything else.

"Understood. The case has been submitted, and the results should be available in a week at the earliest. Just wait."

Knowing that the money was secured, Yun Ran couldn't suppress the smile in her eyes.

She naturally sensed the vice-captain's goodwill and immediately whispered, "You'll be promoted soon!"

The vice-captain was left behind, staring blankly in the direction Yun Ran had left.

A few days later, the Yun family's ancestral worship ceremony ended, and Yun Ran knew that she would have to temporarily say goodbye to her good days of staying up late to watch dramas, sleeping until she naturally woke up, and eating takeout whenever she wanted.

I was in a bad mood at first, but then the reward money arrived on the way back, and my mood was like a rollercoaster ride. I was grinning like an idiot the whole way.

The others were not in such a good mood, each suppressing their anger, on the verge of exploding at any moment.

The two-week ancestral worship ceremony required the Yun family to do many things themselves, leaving these pampered individuals exhausted. During a rest stop at a service area, Yun Wan, the young lady, even complained about her stepmother, Qu Ying, in front of everyone.

One minute they weren't preparing her imported water, and the next minute they were preparing food that she didn't like.

The already agitated crowd seemed to have finally found an outlet for their anger, and they all turned their anger towards Qu Ying.

In the past, that silly original owner would have already jumped out and fought three hundred rounds with these complainers.

She thought these people were simply unreasonable. They brought a maid with them, yet they blamed her mother for everything. Did they think her mother was easy to bully because she had a good temper?

But now, these people's accusations and noises are affecting Yun Shaotang's ability to process documents.

Yun Ran didn't say a word, as if she were deaf.

Qu Ying looked at Yun Ran, who was no longer protecting her as before, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.

When Yun Wan gave her another cold shoulder, she, who usually had a magnanimous smile, finally couldn't hold back anymore.

His gaze fell on Yun Ran, his voice filled with worry: "Why are you still holding a grudge, child? You haven't said a word the whole way."

Yunran's good mood instantly shattered, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Then she complained to Ginseng Fruit: "Here we go again, every time she gets into a conflict with someone else."

She doesn't want to ruin her public image, so she draws everyone's attention to me, and then I become the target of everyone's criticism. Do I owe her something?!

What can the ginseng fruit do? It's a system. It's willing to provide the things in its arsenal and send these idiots to heaven, but Yunran doesn't dare to use it.

[Since you're now known as her daughter, she's definitely going to take advantage of you.]

"Heh~heh~"

Yun Ran turned her head to the side and pressed several special acupoints on her body, her face immediately turning deathly pale.

"Mom, don't talk to me. I'm really carsick right now. If you talk to me again, I'm going to throw up!"

The Yun family members, as usual, stopped complaining and prepared to unite against Yun Ran, only to see Yun Ran's face as white as paper.

He immediately became disgusted: "Could she be sick? I hope she doesn't come with us later, she's bad luck!"

"That's right, sister-in-law, it's not that I can't stand your daughter, but in the state she's in now, do you think she's still suitable to come with us?"

"You always cause trouble. I told you before that she's a burden and doesn't deserve to come, but you wouldn't believe me. Now look what's happened, you're wasting our time. Otherwise, let's split up and you, the eldest son's family, can take care of her yourselves!"

……

All eyes were once again on Yun Ran.

This time, however, Yunran did not yell and scream, nor did she confront these adults like a madwoman.

She just pitifully shed tears, which fell one by one like beads from a broken string. Coupled with her current pale appearance, she truly looked like someone who could evoke pity.

There were quite a few people resting at the service area, and many of them were feeling irritable during their journey.

The Yun family's constant complaining had already angered many people, and now they're directing all their anger at a little girl.

Immediately, someone stood up and looked indignantly at Madam Yun, who had just been the most vocal in her insults.
