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

Chapter 120: It's their own fault for being so incompetent, who else can they blame?

Song Ye, who was initially a little worried, immediately felt relieved when he saw the majestic little paper figure.

On the other side, after Yun Ran finished cursing, she calmed down and cast the spell to recall the paper doll again. This time, there was a response, and the paper doll appeared in front of Yun Ran in a flash.

Looking at the little paper figure, which was the size of a baby and had transformed from a paper doll into a doll, Yun Ran's anger completely dissipated.

"Master, they all want to capture me~"

The little paper doll—oh, no, it should be called a little toy now—said with an air of utter grievance.

"If these people dare to covet you again, don't give them any face, just beat them up!"

The little doll was tempered by heavenly lightning and has long been transformed. Even if those powerful families in the Xuanmen sect really have experts, they might not have much of a chance of winning against it.

"I knew my master was the best, he loves me the most!"

As she spoke, the little doll transformed back into a palm-sized paper figure and obediently stuck to Yunran's cloth bag.

Shen Zhe, who was watching this scene from the side, pursed his lips but didn't say anything.

Although he was the squad leader, he didn't have much say in dealing with those above him, and he had no right to advise Yunran not to take it to heart.

He realized that Yun Ran wouldn't tolerate the kind of grievances that these people could endure.

After Yunran left, Wang Lin put on his helmet; his side job was as a designated driver.

Aside from when they have missions, these people usually have their own side jobs, all of which involve traveling to various corners of the city.

This was so that it would be convenient to keep watch from the shadows anytime and anywhere, and at the same time, it would also help to conceal one's identity.

When Yun Ran returned home, she saw that Yun Jingyang was still awake and was sitting in the living room, diligently handling matters.

This piqued her curiosity. It wasn't like the Yun family didn't have a study; she had seen Yun Jingyang handling company matters in the living room countless times.

"Big brother, why aren't you asleep yet?"

I glanced at the clock not far from the living room; hmm, it was already three in the morning.

“I heard from the maid that you went out by yourself today without a driver. There are a lot of things to take care of at the company recently, so I thought I would wait for you.”

Yunran: ...

This feeling of being waited for didn't make Yunran feel any warmth or comfort.

If it were the original owner of this body, who had been mistreated and bullied since childhood, she would be deeply moved to see the eldest young master of the Yun family care about her so much.

Unfortunately, she wasn't the original owner of this body, so she wasn't lacking in love. This small favor only showed her Yun Jingyang's attitude, nothing more.

"Brother, you also need to take care of your health. Staying up late for so long is not a good habit."

Now it was Yun Jingyang's turn to be at a loss for words.

After a two-second silence, Yun Jingyang changed the subject: "Well, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. By the way, we're leaving for South China tomorrow, so you should get some rest."

Does this mean we're going ahead of schedule? Yun Ran didn't think much of it and nodded.

As soon as she got back to her room, she received a notification on her phone that she had made a payment. In the past, she might have been excited.

But now, with so many bonuses, she's become numb; now, all she wants is merit.

Just as she thought this, golden light began to merge into Yun Ran's body. Yun Ran: ...

So, it turns out that you can make wishes to accumulate merit? I had just thought of that when a whole bunch of them came.

The discomfort I had previously experienced due to being disliked by Heaven has suddenly lessened considerably.

Ginseng Fruit also received some benefits: "It seems I still need to fight those evil cultivators more often; the merit is like it's free."

Yunran also agreed with what the ginseng fruit said. Since that was the case, then she shouldn't be so impolite.

The little paper doll has absorbed a lot of evil energy. If it encounters the same type of evil energy again, it will be the first to detect it, and then it won't hold back.

In a good mood, Yunran lay down and drifted off to sleep.

But for many, this night was a sleepless one.

After finishing the last document, Xie Xuzhi rubbed his temples before looking at Gu Yuan in the corner of the office.

"What are you still doing here?"

Gu Yuan: ...

He really wanted to protest his innocence; did he want to be a doorman here?

He immediately looked at Xie Xuzhi with a resentful expression: "Boss, how can you talk like that? Do you think I want to be here?"
Don't forget, I'm on your side today. Didn't you see the look in my second uncle's eyes that made him want to send me back to school for a second chance?

You could have easily rejected their proposals, but instead you insisted on using some kind of democratic process, and even used Yunran's words to criticize them.

Little did they know, your decisions are never going to be changed; it's just a lesson for them to slap themselves in the face.

Xie Xuzhi was happy, but he was caught in the middle, not pleasing anyone. Sigh, when will this end?

However, others seemed to be in even worse shape, so compared to them, he felt that he wasn't so bad off after all.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan felt a little better.

Those people thought that Xie Xuzhi was not a member of the Xuanmen sect and would be subject to others.

Little did they know that even those in the Xuanmen sect were still human, and humans have weaknesses. Xie Xuzhi's greatest skill was attacking people's minds.

If you go along with Xie Xuzhi, at worst you'll just be sidelined. But if you want to go against him, he won't immediately resort to forceful suppression.

Instead, he would slowly and gradually destroy those people, making them believe that it was their own fault for being ungrateful, not that he, as the deputy director of the Special Administration Bureau, was being unfair.

Hearing Gu Yuan's complaints, Xie Xuzhi chuckled: "Heh, didn't I give them a chance? It's their own fault for not being good enough, who can they blame?"

Xie Xuzhi's 'democracy' was always just a formality, arranged by him.

"I think Yunran is really angry. You offended those people from the Xuanmen families by using her words. They won't dare to take their anger out on you, so they'll all take it out on Yunran."

Not to mention, the good things Yun Ran possessed—even just a small paper doll was enough to make those people envious. Quite a few people knew she had many other good things.

At that time, Yun Ran was someone who could withstand heavenly lightning, and she had even used heavenly lightning to temper many of her magical artifacts. Before that, everyone's attention had not yet fallen on Yun Ran.

This time, the power displayed by Yunran's little paper doll was enough for her to step into the public eye.

"She's not as weak as you think, and how do you know she's afraid of those people?"
