Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 193 - 192: She Calls Me Dragon Spirit Boss~

Yun Ran also felt that she could not break this precedent. With a System and a Water Dragon Dragon Spirit already following her, if a Female Ghost King joined them, what would that look like!

Just now, Ginsengfruit and the Water Dragon Dragon Spirit who were on the same side with her started to hesitate.

Ginsengfruit cautiously said: "Host, she seems a bit pitiful. Why don’t we keep her? After all, she doesn’t eat or drink, and can serve as a free laborer."

The Water Dragon Dragon Spirit also spoke somewhat coyly: "Although she has lost some of her value, she called me ’Great Dragon Spirit’~"

Yun Ran: ...

Those two were the strongest opponents just now, but now they’ve turned their guns on me!

"Such unreliable stances, sooner or later, betrayals will happen!"

After the scolding, Yun Ran felt relieved.

Then she looked at the Ghost King and cleared her throat: "Since you sincerely beg, as a person of the Xuan Sect, I naturally cannot allow a Ghost King to roam around freely, so you may stay by my side for the time being."

The Female Ghost King was immediately happy, quickly burrowing into the bead she had been sealed in as if she were used to it, without Yun Ran having to do anything.

As soon as she entered, the Female Ghost King poked her head out again: "Master, have other little ghosts lived here before?"

Even Ginsengfruit could hear a tinge of grievance in her voice at this point.

But, what did that have to do with Yun Ran? It was her bead, not exclusively for the Female Ghost King.

"If you don’t like it, then don’t stay!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Female Ghost King vanished in a flash.

She was afraid of being too slow and getting kicked out by the master directly. Regardless of whether other little ghosts had lived there before, this was her turf now.

Having dealt with a committed matter, Yun Ran felt relieved and decided to rest and go find Yun Jinyang.

She calculated that this trip for Yun Jinyang had been fraught with scares yet safe, but these scares could vary in severity.

And Tan Chengbi, who was completely an outsider, was even busier than Yun Ran, the person involved.

He mobilized quite a few people from the Tan Family, and even Madam Helian of the Helian Family was alerted.

There, the Old Madam of the Helian Family had sent someone to invite them.

Thinking of his great-aunt, who could talk for days and nights, Tan Chengbi felt his ears were in danger, quickly made eye gestures to Assistant Xu, and said he was sick and couldn’t go.

Assistant Xu looked at him somewhat disheartened: "Young Master, you might be afraid of the Old Madam, but am I not? Sending me to report to the Old Madam is like sending me to my death!"

"How could that be!" But when he said this, Tan Chengbi’s eyes clearly showed his guilt: "I definitely didn’t think so!"

Assistant Xu had grown up with Tan Chengbi; one could say their understanding of each other was such that one look was enough to know what the other was thinking.

Watching Assistant Xu’s increasingly mournful eyes, Tan Chengbi immediately put on his authority as the Young Master: "What now, you won’t listen to what the Young Master says?"

Assistant Xu fell silent: ...

Tan Chengbi immediately kicked Assistant Xu: "Go quickly!"

What could Assistant Xu do? He had to stiffen his scalp and go meet Old Madam Helian. If he got scared to death, he definitely would not let the Young Master off, hmph!

In the evening, Assistant Xu was sent back, yes, sent back, not returning on his own accord.

Seeing the bloodstains on the assistant’s back, Tan Chengbi’s expression turned ugly instantly.

He knew that if his great-aunt found out he had used the Tan Family’s resources to investigate an insignificant little girl, she would definitely be displeased.

But he never imagined that his great-aunt would resort to family discipline on his assistant.

Members of the Helian Family, using family discipline on someone from the Tan Family! How preposterous!

The assistant glanced at his young master’s face and knew he was in trouble. Ignoring his own injuries, he forced a smile and said, "Young Master, this should be considered a work injury. I need a double year-end bonus to recover~"

Tan Chengbi looked at the people who brought back the assistant. This time, he did not want to play it down and appease the situation as the assistant had suggested.

With a cold stare at those people, he asked, "Who did this!"

The bodyguards from the Helian Family had anticipated such a reaction. They weren’t very afraid, calmly conveying the Old Madam’s message.

"Cousin Young Master, the Old Madam says that you can turn heaven and earth upside down if you wish, but you must not act on personal feelings for a person of low status. Such people have no place in the Tan Family. This is a reminder for you."

Having said that, the bodyguards directly removed their suits and unbuttoned their shirts, standing bare-chested. They respectfully presented the whip that was used on the assistant with both hands.

"We all had a part in disciplining Assistant Xu. If you’re not feeling well about it, you’re welcome to return the punishment."

Tan Chengbi sneered, took the whip, and lashed each of them a few times, then threw the whip onto the ground.

His tone was icy to the extreme, "Get out!"

Even with injuries, the bodyguards walked out with their heads held high, as if the wounds were merely tickles to them.

The assistant knew his young master must be livid. Otherwise, a person like the young master would never personally punish people.

He could only whisper softly, "Young Master, I’m fine. These are just superficial wounds. The bodyguards from the Helian Family know their limits."

But Tan Chengbi was no longer as carefree as before. After arranging for the assistant to rest, he tasked others to investigate whether his great-aunt’s trip to Yinghua Country was really just for a vacation.

Xu Heng was his man, and as the saying goes, one must look at the owner before beating the dog. And certainly, the Tan Family was not much inferior to the Helian Family.

For something like this, to strike at his person was to strike the face of the entire Tan Family.

Remembering something, Tan Chengbi immediately called his grandfather, who was far away in the O continent.

Mr. Tan, the Old Master of the Tan Family, was overjoyed to receive a call from his precious grandson. "Are you having fun in Yinghua Country, child?"

"Grandpa, I have something I’d like to ask."

Mr. Tan had never heard such a serious tone from his grandson and immediately became solemn, "Go ahead."

"What would be the reason for the great-aunt to suddenly use family discipline on someone close to me?"

Mr. Tan was momentarily stunned. He understood his sister all too well; ambitious from a young age.

She could have married a young and promising man to enjoy the greatest happiness, yet she stubbornly married the Helian Family Master, who was twenty years her senior.

Outwardly, everyone said it was a union between the two families. In truth, only those within the families knew that it was his sister’s own initiative.

She never did anything without a purpose; never just on a whim.

"Who did she lay her hands on?"

Tan Chengbi’s eyes drooped, sensing from his grandfather’s tone that it seemed quite normal for his great-aunt to take such action. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Tan Chengbi summarized the situation briefly, "Xu Heng is not an ordinary assistant. With this move by great-aunt, I suspect..."
