Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 701: The Little Paperman’s Sense of Superiority
Yun Ran said considerately, "I’ll have someone send you a new invitation later."
Thinking it over in her heart, a relationship where they could mutually benefit wasn’t so bad; at least they could coexist peacefully.
However, at this moment, Yun Ran was completely unaware that on the other end of the phone, Wanqi Yu was filled with gratitude, followed by guilt.
As an honorary brother, not only did he not help Yun Ran much, but he had also used Yun Ran’s connections several times to achieve his goals.
The more he thought about it, the more Wanqi Yu was overwhelmed with emotion; his adoptive father had granted him a second chance at life, and Yun Ran had given him helpful support...
Meeting this father-daughter duo was truly a blessing accrued from his past life.
After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran had an eighty percent certainty in her heart; she was just waiting for the Little Paperman to return.
At that moment, Yun Ran was completely unaware that, in the eyes of many, she was two completely opposite extremes.
For those who gained from her, like Gu Yuan, Taoist Xia, and the young generation at the Special Administration Bureau eager for credit...
In their eyes, Yun Ran was their noble benefactor, making their futures bright and clear.
But in the eyes of those whose unsavory deeds Yun Ran had exposed, like the Zhang family, the former richest Zhao family, and those caught up from the Xuan Sect Association... 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
In their eyes, Yun Ran was akin to a Plague God because of whom they truly suffered.
However, even knowing this, Yun Ran wouldn’t care after all; she wasn’t gold, not everyone could like her.
By nightfall, the Little Paperman returned, bringing back even more detailed information.
Currently, in Huannan, although there’s no chaos on the surface, in private, many were thoroughly checked.
Most problematic people had been smoothly removed for various graceful reasons and many of good character and capability ascended.
The Special Administration Bureau had seized control over most powers, maximizing oversight on corrupt collusion and self-serving activities.
"I understand, you all can go now."
After dismissing the Little Papermen, Yun Ran called Xie Xuzhi.
Xie Xuzhi immediately asked, "Have you made your decision?"
"Yes."
Xie Xuzhi wasn’t the least surprised by this answer; given Yun Ran’s mind, it would be odd to refuse an opportunity where the good outweighed the bad.
"Fine, from now on, Qingfeng Temple will be a member of the third-party Xuan Sect supervision system. Whether they are from the Special Administration Bureau or other Xuan Sect members, Qingfeng Temple will have the right to issue warnings for any injustices.
"Rest assured, I handle things properly!"
Even if Gu Yuan said this, Xie Xuzhi would be skeptical, but when Yun Ran said it, he had no doubt.
"Yes, I know."
Just when they were about to hang up, Xie Xuzhi added, "During your coming-of-age ceremony, I have to go abroad for some business, so I can’t make it, but I’ve sent you a generous gift instead."
Upon hearing the first part, Yun Ran instinctively wanted to say, it’s fine, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t come.
But then she heard the part about a generous gift, and her eyes instantly lit up; she loved receiving lavish presents the most.
Sadly, this coming-of-age ceremony was a once-in-a-lifetime event; any other birthday parties would certainly not be as significant.
"Of course, business comes first!"
There was one more sentence Yun Ran didn’t say, which was, as long as the gift arrived, it wasn’t really rude even if the person didn’t.
After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran instantly jumped onto the bed.
Suddenly, a wave of warm sensations surged into Yun Ran’s body.
This feeling was familiar; it was the same each time the Merit Golden Light flowed in.
Unfortunately, now Yun Ran’s abilities were sealed, and her ’Heavenly Eye’ couldn’t be used, so she couldn’t see the Merit Golden Light anymore.
But it didn’t matter—she couldn’t see it, but the Little Paperman could.
They stuck to the balcony in Yun Ran’s large room, witnessing countless streams of Merit Golden Light, like fireflies in the night, pouring into Yun Ran’s room.
While they were a bit surprised and envious, many streams of Merit Golden Light flew towards them as well.
Inherently lively, the Little Paperman couldn’t stay calm and continued jumping up high.
Stretching out their hands, they caught the streams of Merit Golden Light that darted towards them, like catching fireflies.
"Wow, so bright and warm, but not hot at all~"
"I got five!"
"I have four!"
"Haha, I got ten!"
"The master has even more, so many I can’t count them all."
...
Although Yun Ran’s room was soundproof, the Little Papermen clearly had no self-awareness, and upon receiving the Merit Golden Light, they opened the glass door to the balcony.
They flew to Yun Ran one by one, appearing as if they were seeking praise.
Yun Ran: ...
With so many Little Papermen chirping right by her ear, it truly was lively, but with too many voices mingling together, it was like a busy marketplace.
"Go check on Xuan Chu!"
One of the Little Papermen opened its mouth and devoured the Merit Golden Light it was holding, then whoosh, disappeared instantly.
Xuan Chu was sitting somewhat bewilderedly on his bed, looking at the Merit Golden Light surrounding him, his eyes showing a bit of daze.
Just a moment ago, in his drowsiness, he felt something flowing into his body.
His first reaction was that Yun Ran or the Little Paperman was playing some prank.
Immediately he opened his eyes wide, and then he saw everything before him...
As a person from Heavenly Dao Village, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to obtain Merit Golden Light.
Xuan Chu rubbed his eyes and the golden shining light still hovered nearby.
He pinched his leg, hissed!!!
While Xuan Chu was lost in self-doubt, a Little Paperman drifted in through the crack of the door.
It happened to see Xuan Chu starting to pinch his face again.
"It does hurt, so it’s not a dream?"
Little Paperman: ...
Che, even for someone from Heavenly Dao Village, so inexperienced, hanging around with their master, these occurrences were common.
"It’s real!"
Xuan Chu looked up at the Little Paperman, and although the room lights weren’t on, both Xuan Chu and the Little Paperman could clearly see everything inside the room at night.
Not to mention, there was still quite a bit of Merit Golden Light in the room now.
But honestly, Xuan Chu’s room had a lot of Merit Golden Light, but compared to their master, it was pitifully few.
The Little Paperman’s sense of superiority instantly grew.
"Just some Merit Golden Light, look how shocked you are~"
The Little Paperman’s tone was so obvious that Xuan Chu couldn’t ignore it even if he tried.
"Did Yun Ran send you? Does she have these Merit Golden Lights as well?"
