Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 48 People are the Same but Fates Differ (3 updates)

Yun Ran had just encountered an incident when Xie Xuzhi’s people arrived swiftly.

The man wore a duckbill cap, covering half of his face.

He found the man lying on the ground already dead, evidently killed by the scalpel in his own hand.

The man showed no surprise, squatting down and sensing that the soul of the dead man had dispersed, he finally showed some emotion: "Another Soul Devouring Curse!"

Yun Ran’s eyes flickered, as she hadn’t expected the person sent by Xie Xuzhi to be from the Xuanmen.

"Have you encountered someone like this before?"

"This is a classified matter of the Special Administration Bureau!"

Yun Ran instantly got his implication—she, being an unofficial member, better not ask.

Finally, the man raised his head, his gaze calm as if he wasn’t looking at a scene where someone had just died.

"My name is Shen Zhe, leader of the first action team of the Hai City Special Administration Bureau. From now on, you are under my management. I’ll handle what happened tonight."

Yun Ran raised her eyebrows, intrigued. She hadn’t expected to have a boss to report to, quite a novelty.

"Alright, I’ll leave it to you. But let me clarify, this wasn’t my doing. Knowing he couldn’t escape, he took his own life. You can’t pin this on me."

Shen Zhe’s eyes held a trace of speechlessness, "I know, my eyes are like rulers, I can see it!"

Soon, someone arrived to change Yun Ran’s room, which was temporarily taken over by people from the Special Administration Bureau.

With someone cleaning up the mess, Yun Ran comfortably went back to sleep.

The next morning, when the doctor came for the rounds, he saw Yun Ran had changed rooms and didn’t show any sign of awareness, as if he totally didn’t know she had moved.

This gave Yun Ran a deeper appreciation for the capabilities of the Special Administration Bureau.

"Lady Yun, your medical indicators are fine. You can be discharged now."

Just as she was about to be discharged, Shen Zhe pushed the door of the hospital room open, which annoyed Yun Ran.

"It was okay last night, it was an emergency after all, but barging in today like this, don’t you think you’re undermining me!"

Shen Zhe was startled, then stepped out and closed the door, then knocked on it.

Yun Ran: ...

Ginsengfruit was speechless, and moaned to Yun Ran, "This guy is a fool, right?"

"Come in."

Shen Zhe entered and went straight to the point: "Last night wasn’t just an attack on you. Someone also broke into your mother’s hospital room.

Fortunately, she was lucky. That person was discovered by your family’s maid just as he broke in. The hospital security just happened to be patrolling their floor.

The intruder had no choice but to say he entered the wrong room and then fled. If I hadn’t ordered a thorough investigation this morning, this matter might have been overlooked."

Unfazed by an assassination attempt, nor by Heavenly Dao dragging her back, Yun Ran didn’t crack.

Now, hearing that the same happened to the female lead, this destiny and Qi Fortune made Yun Ran really feel like she was indeed cursed by big resentment.

Shen Zhe, watching Yun Ran’s changing expressions, couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong? You don’t seem happy."

His words barely fell when he saw Yun Ran giving him a sullen look, silently accusing him of bringing up the most inconvenient topic!

Now Yun Ran understood that Shen Zhe, while capable, seemed to lack emotional intelligence, almost a simpleton, and getting angry with him would only upset herself.

"It’s nothing, just feeling a bit envious. Can’t I be jealous?"

Shen Zhe, although late to realize, now understood he had misspoken.

He hastily passed a document to Yun Ran to change the subject, "This is from Director Xie, your first gift."

The previously disheartened Yun Ran brightened up immediately upon hearing about a gift, quickly accepting the document.

Upon opening it, she saw it was a resumption of work directive, and she was puzzled until she read through all the materials.

"The Yun Family’s project was suspended? Does this resumption order mean that the Yun Family now has to act according to my wishes?"

Shen Zhe clearly saw the words "petty success" written on Yun Ran’s face.

Yun Ran laughed with arms akimbo, "My chance to feel triumphant has finally arrived!"

Shen Zhe: ...

Now he kind of understood what his master meant when he warned him not to trust others’ sob stories so readily.

This young lady had changed her face several times in just a few minutes, and he had felt sympathy for her just moments ago.

"I’ll head back first, call me if you need anything!"

Having said that, Yun Ran grabbed her tattered bag, leaving a gust of wind behind, and vanished.

Shen Zhe was left with unfinished words stuck in his throat.

Yun Ran suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Yun Family’s building, but didn’t enter, as nearby security quickly focused on her.

Previously, the chairman’s mistress knelt in front of the building with her child, and these security personnel had all been penalized, with several leaders from the security department dismissed.

The newly promoted leaders constantly reminded them to be vigilant, especially towards suspicious-looking young women, to suppress them at the first instance and prevent any scandalous news involving the Yun Family.

Specifically, the security department even hired several female officers, fearing being accused falsely.

Yun Ran didn’t know these details, nor did she know that she was the instigator.

Timing her move, Yun Ran finally picked up the phone and called Yun Jinyang.

Yun Jinyang, who had just finished a meeting, felt it was quite a coincidence upon seeing Yun Ran’s call.

Little did he know, Yun Ran had timed her call knowing he would be available, it was no coincidence at all.

"Ranran, what’s up?"

"I’m at the entrance of the Yun Family building, there’s something important I need to tell you, come down!" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Yun Jinyang: ...

Ever since Yun Ran had a fallout with them, she was no longer pretending, making him oddly miss the previous docile version of her.

"I’ll send the secretary down to bring you up, it’s almost noon, let’s have lunch together."

"Okay then!"

Yun Jinyang’s secretary quickly came down, quickly spotting Yun Ran sitting near a flowerbed.

The security personnel, already watching Yun Ran, saw the general manager’s secretary heading directly towards her.

They were nervous, but since the lady hadn’t done anything wrong, they had no reason to interfere, hoping this meant they were not neglecting their duties.
