Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 609 - 608: I Know All These Tricks
The young masterโs schemes have always been about striking at the heart, making people willingly fall into his traps.
But with Yun Ranโs unlucky disposition, most people simply canโt withstand being messed with like that. ๐ฏ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ฌ๐ฎ๐๐๐ค๐๐๐ก.๐๐๐ถ
However, Xuan Chu is different; not only is he powerful, but he also owes Yun Ran a great debt.
Thus, their relationship is no longer just a mere transaction.
If Yun Ran truly encountered an unavoidable danger, Xuan Chu would definitely risk his life to protect Yun Ran.
The desert sun was truly scorching, the land baked by the sun, causing the air to warp and distort.
After checking the surroundings and finding nothing amiss, Xuan Chu was ready to return to the car and wait.
Just then, a gust of hot wind blew over, and Xuan Chuโs expression changed slightly.
Anyone else would think that in such a frustrating and sun-scorched situation, this wind could somewhat relieve the heat-induced irritation.
But after witnessing Yun Ranโs unlucky streak, this scene now seemed like there was something supernatural going on.
Xuan Chu quickened his pace, soon reaching the car with a somewhat grave expression.
Thinking back to when he first left the mountain, calm and composed, he felt that among the younger generation of the Xuan Sect, no one could compare to him.
He even firmly believed that the Heavenly Dao was just and would not deliberately target anyone. Now, he feels like a frog at the bottom of a well.
Yun Ran took out a can of coke from the fridge and handed it to Xuan Chu, kindly advising, "I suggest you close the car door; itโs about to rain heavily."
Xuan Chu took the coke and asked in confusion, "How do you know?"
Now, Yun Ran was no different from an ordinary person, and logically shouldnโt be able to predict what was going to happen next.
"Iโm familiar with these patterns: first, the RV gets a flat tire, then it gets stuck in a pit, and finally, a heavy rain comes for a sauna. Voilร !"
Xuan Chu...
This must have been quite the โbeatingโ for her to casually predict the Heavenly Daoโs punishment like this.
"Donโt look at me with those pitying eyes. Iโm not pitiful; this is something anyone with a brain can figure out."
With one sentence, she shoved back the tiny bit of concern Xuan Chu had painstakingly shown.
"So what do we do now?"
"What can we do? We wait. Now that Iโm an ordinary person, the Heavenly Daoโs punishment for me is limited. The harm wonโt be too great; itโs just purely irritating."
Xuan Chu thought about it and agreed; the previous troubles really werenโt much to people like them, just a bit vexing.
Just after Yun Ran finished speaking, the sound of raindrops hitting the roof could be heard, while outside, the sun was still shining, not affecting the pouring rain.
The Heavenly Dao may be annoying, but it canโt do whatever it wants; all โpunishmentsโ are proportional.
For instance, now that she is as fragile as glass, the corresponding punishment compared to her former self is childโs play.
Otherwise, with a single Heavenly Thunder strike, sheโd be dead immediately.
The ground, baked by the sun, when hit by this heavy rain, emitted the first wave of steam.
Anyone with a slightly weaker constitution would definitely fall ill in such an environment.
"Pop"
It was the sound of the coke being opened.
Xuan Chu took a sip of the soda, looking at the heavy rain outside, while thinking of the phrase โyour greatest opponent knows you bestโ.
Watching Yun Ran leaning by the bed, drinking instant coffee prepared by the Little Paperman, with a look of appreciation for the desert sun in the rain.
She took a sip of the coffee and put it down disdainfully; instant coffee was just average.
Xuan Chu: ...
Yun Ranโs mindset is truly impressive, while heโs here in a panic, it feels like an Emperor not worried but his eunuchs are.
After putting down the cup, Yun Ran looked up and saw Xuan Chuโs expression, laughing, "Whatโs that look? You seem like youโre up to no good."
"I thought youโd be really angry, maybe even..."
"Even take it out on you? Iโm not that petty. Youโre from Heavenly Dao Village, following its rules is your duty.
Besides, you didnโt know that the Heavenly Dao was severely injured, its essence stolen. Even now if there are issues with its operation, it hasnโt completely collapsed."
If Yun Ran had cursed and ranted like before, Xuan Chu might have felt better.
But now, Yun Ran being so โunderstandingโ gave rise to an inexplicable sense of guilt in him.
As if all of Yun Ranโs suffering was somehow related to him.
Compared to their initial meeting, Xuan Chu now seemed much more alive, at least showing some emotions and preferences.
"Tsk tsk tsk, who would have thought that a guy from Heavenly Dao Village would be so emotional.
I remember you once swearing that people from Heavenly Dao Village donโt take sides, donโt judge right or wrong."
Having his flaws pointed out in person, Xuan Chu gave a speechless glance at Yun Ran.
Fortunately, the sound of the rain pounding on the RV roof shattered the awkward atmosphere in the cramped space.
Still, he had to argue a couple of points; the principles of Heavenly Dao Village were not wrong.
Thereโs just been some deviations, not an essential problem.
"The will of Heavenly Dao Village is to maintain the proper operation of the Heavenly Dao. As long as it doesnโt interfere with the Heavenly Daoโs operation, Heavenly Dao Village wonโt concern itself with anything.
Just like how a human wouldnโt care why two ants are fighting in a corner, nor would it care which ant is good or evil.
Unless the ant affects the humanโs normal life, they wonโt be discovered and eliminated by humans.
Otherwise, throughout their lives, the existence and demise of these two ants would never be known by humans..."
This left Yun Ran speechless; the analogy was good, but no need to use it next time.
The rain didnโt seem like it would stop any time soon, and the Special Administration Bureauโs people didnโt know when theyโd arrive.
The tires could be changed, but knowing how unlucky they were now, it was best not to tempt fate and provoke the Heavenly Dao, lest their bad luck be compounded.
"Alright, you go do your thing; I need to rest for a while!"
With that, Yun Ran closed the curtain and lay back on her mattress.
Days accompanied by the sound of rain werenโt to be wasted.
Hearing the sound of a game from behind the curtain, Xuan Chuโs mouth twitched.
Yun Ranโs easygoing nature was now fully established.
Looking at the heavy rain outside, steam had already spread, obscuring the view into the distance, only revealing the nearby scene.
The pits dug by the Little Paperman and others earlier were now gradually filling with small puddles.
Thinking about how their car was half stuck in previously, if not for the Little Paperman, they couldnโt have gotten out unscathed.
Being caught in such a rainstorm again, tsk tsk tsk, no need to imagine how frustrating that would be.
