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

Chapter 193 She Calls Me Dragon Spirit Master~
Yun Ran also felt that she couldn't open that door. She already had a system and a water dragon spirit by her side. If a female ghost king came along, what would that look like!
The ginseng fruit and the water dragon spirit, who had just been on her side, now hesitated.

The ginseng fruit cautiously said, "Host, she seems a bit pitiful. Why don't we keep her? She doesn't eat or drink, so she can be free labor."

Water Dragon Spirit also spoke up somewhat awkwardly: "Although it's a bit beneath her, she calls me Dragon Spirit Master~"

Yunran: ...

These two were the most vocal opponents just now, but now they've turned against her!

"With such an wavering stance, you'll become a traitor sooner or later!"

After venting her anger, Yun Ran felt satisfied.

Then he looked at the Ghost King and coughed lightly: "Since you are sincerely praying, as a member of the Xuanmen, I naturally cannot let a Ghost King like you run around. You shall stay by my side for the time being."

The female ghost king was overjoyed and quickly and skillfully crawled into the bead that had previously sealed her, without Yun Ran having to lift a finger.

As soon as they entered, the female ghost king poked her head out again: "Master, have any other little ghosts lived here before?"

Even the ginseng fruit could hear the grievance in her voice at this moment.

But what does this have to do with Yunran? These are her beads, not the exclusive property of the Ghost King.

"If you don't want to stay, then don't stay!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the female ghost king vanished in a flash.

She was afraid that if she was too slow, the master would kick her out. Regardless of whether there had been any ghosts living there before, it was now her territory.

Having resolved a promised matter, Yun Ran felt refreshed and decided to rest before going to find Yun Jingyang.

She had calculated that Yun Jingyang would escape unscathed on this trip, but the extent of the scare could vary greatly.

Tan Chengbi, who was a complete outsider, was actually busier than Yun Ran, the person involved.

He mobilized many people from the Tan family, which alarmed the old lady of the Helian family.

Sure enough, the matriarch of the Helian family sent someone to invite them directly.

Thinking that his aunt could go on and on for days and nights, Tan Chengbi felt his ears were going to suffer. He quickly winked at his assistant and said that he was sick and couldn't go.

The assistant looked at him with a hint of heartache: "Young Master, let me tell you, you may be afraid of the Old Madam, but am I not? You're sending me to report to the Old Madam? Isn't that sending me to my death?"

"How could that be!" But as he said this, Tan Chengbi's eyes clearly showed guilt: "I absolutely did not have that thought!"

The assistant and Tan Chengbi grew up together. It can be said that the two have such a tacit understanding that they can know what the other is thinking with just a glance.

Seeing his assistant's increasingly resentful look, Tan Chengbi immediately adopted his authority as the young master: "What, are you not listening to the young master?"

The assistant remained silent for a moment: ...

Tan Chengbi immediately kicked his assistant: "Go now!"

What could the assistant do? He had no choice but to grit his teeth and go to Old Madam Helian's place. If he was scared to death, he would definitely not let the young master off the hook, hmph!
In the evening, the assistant was brought back—yes, brought back, not walked back on his own.

Seeing the bloodstains on his assistant's back, Tan Chengbi's face immediately turned grim.

He knew that his great-aunt would be unhappy if she knew that he had used the Tan family's resources to investigate an insignificant little girl.

But he never expected that his aunt would use family discipline on his assistant. The Helian family using family discipline on the Tan family! How absurd!

The assistant glanced at his young master's face and knew he was in trouble. Ignoring his own injury, he forced a smile and said, "Young Master, this is a work injury. I'll need double my year-end bonus to recover!"

Tan Chengbi glanced at the person who brought his assistant back. This time, he didn't want to go along with his assistant's wishes and let the matter drop.

He looked coldly at the group and asked, "Who laid a hand on me?"

The Helian family's bodyguards had anticipated this outcome, so they weren't particularly afraid and calmly relayed the old lady's words.

“Young Master, the Old Madam said that even if you cause a huge upheaval, it doesn’t matter, but you cannot act selfishly for the sake of someone of lowly status. The Tan family cannot tolerate such a person. This is a reminder to you.”

As they spoke, the bodyguards took off their suits, unbuttoned their shirts, and, shirtless, respectfully presented the whips they had used to lash the assistant.

“We all share responsibility for disciplining Assistant Xu. If you’re still upset, you can punish him back.”

Tan Chengbi sneered, took the whip, and lashed each of the men a few times before throwing it on the ground.

His tone was icy cold: "Get out!"

Even though the bodyguards were injured, they walked out with their heads held high, as if the injuries were nothing more than a tickle to them.

The assistant knew that his young master must be furious; otherwise, someone like him would never personally punish someone.

He could only whisper, "Young Master, I'm fine. It's just superficial injuries. The Helian family's bodyguards know their limits."

Tan Chengbi, however, was not as carefree as before. After having his assistant sent down to rest, he asked others to investigate whether his aunt's trip to Japan was really for a vacation.

Xu Heng is his man. Everyone says you have to consider the owner before beating a dog, let alone the fact that the Tan family is no worse than the Helian family.

Because of this one incident, the person who hit him is slapping the face of the entire Tan family.

Thinking of something, Tan Chengbi immediately called his grandfather, who lived far away in Ozhou.

When the old man of the Tan family saw the call from his beloved grandson, he answered with great joy: "You child, are you having a good time in Japan?"

"Grandpa, I have something I want to ask you."

The old man of the Tan family had never heard his grandson speak in such a serious tone before, and he immediately became serious as well: "You speak."

"If my great-aunt suddenly used family discipline on the people around me, under what circumstances do you think that would be?"

Grandpa Tan was stunned for a moment. He knew his younger sister all too well; she had been ambitious since she was a child.

She could have married a talented young man and enjoyed the best of happiness, but she insisted on marrying the head of the Helian family, who was twenty years her senior.

To outsiders, everyone said it was a marriage alliance between the two families, but only those within the family knew that it was the younger sister who had taken the initiative to go.

Everything she does is purposeful; she never does things just because she feels like it.

"Who did she attack?"

Tan Chengbi lowered his eyelids. Judging from his grandfather's words, it seemed normal for his great-aunt to take action.

Tan Chengbi briefly explained the situation: "Xu Heng is no ordinary assistant. I suspect my aunt's actions..."
