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

Chapter 202 Colored Glasses (2nd Update)
With Tan Chengbi's permission, Yun Ran arrived at their location without any problems.

"Why are you here?"

When she said this, Yun Ran's eyes clearly showed surprise.

However, upon getting closer, she saw her assistant sitting in a wheelchair, and when she saw the assistant's face clearly, Yun Ran frowned.

The middle-aged man next to Tan Chengbi immediately frowned.

She's definitely a burden, lacking any of the manners and composure expected of a wealthy heiress.

Ever since Yunran arrived, he has been observing her. People of their young master's status have suffered countless misfortunes, in all sorts of ways.

The young master used to be very clear-headed, and those people were completely wasting their time.

But now this burden of the Yun family has actually gained the young master's special favor; who knows what methods he used?

The middle-aged man's first impression of Yun Ran wasn't good, let alone now that he saw Xu Heng's (assistant's) obviously surprised look. Did he look down on Yun Ran even more now?

"Are you in some kind of trouble?"

Tan Chengbi was initially delighted to see the lively Yun Ran, but then he was taken aback when Yun Ran abruptly changed the subject.

"Wha...what?"

"Your assistant was cursed with a spell that caused forgetfulness and was injured. Did you offend someone from the Xuanmen sect?"

If it were anyone else, Yun Ran probably wouldn't have said anything.

But Tan Chengbi was a decent person; he had indirectly helped her find out the cause of Hirano Jiro's death, for which she had earned a lot of merit.

"The Forget-Word Mantra?"

Tan Chengbi's gaze towards Yun Ran immediately turned wary; there was no way his assistant could have revealed that she had forgotten a part of her memory.

Only the person who made the move could know about this, but Yun Ran saw it at a glance. Tan Chengbi naturally did not believe such a coincidence.

He's no novice; families in their social circle all have powerful esoteric masters in their esteem.

She also knew a lot about the Xuanmen (mystical sect). Even though Yun Ran did know some Xuanmen techniques, most people her age were still learning and couldn't possibly recognize high-level spells.

Moreover, anyone with even a little knowledge knows that these important members of the family are given special talismans made by the family's ancestral master from birth to prevent them from being harmed.

The servants, subordinates, and bodyguards who followed them all had some means of self-defense.

But now, Yun Ran is saying that Xu Heng has been cursed with the Forgetfulness Spell, and he finds it hard to believe that Yun Ran is innocent.

Out of gentlemanly manners, he did not immediately interrupt Yun Ran, but in his heart, some doubts arose about Yun Ran.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He never expected that his first meeting with someone outside his social circle would end in this way.

The middle-aged man was now even more certain that Yun Ran was no different from those who wanted to get close to the young master, but she didn't even realize she had kicked a hornet's nest and was still smug.

He had never seen anyone so fond of seeking attention, actually stirring up trouble in front of the Tan family. It was ridiculous!

Yun Ran was completely unaware that the atmosphere had changed, and even less aware that she was being viewed with prejudice.

At this moment, her focus was entirely on her assistant.

She hadn't seen anyone use such clean and efficient spells in a long time, which was enough to show that this person's skill was extraordinary.

Yunran formed hand seals, which to outsiders appeared as if she were performing embroidery without any props.

"break!"

As Yun Ran's voice fell, the assistant suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and his face contorted in a ferocious expression.

"Young Master, run!" The assistant's sudden words caused the expressions of the people on the Tan family's side to change instantly.

They knew Xu Heng all too well; for him to say something like that, he must have discovered something extremely dangerous.

"Miss Yun, we have something very important to attend to..."

Yunran finally realized that something was wrong, but she didn't think that this strange atmosphere had anything to do with her.

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

Ginseng Fruit scratched its head: [Host, I feel something's off... they...]

You only realize how little you know when you need it. I don't know how to describe the ginseng fruit, but I feel that the Tan family has malice towards the host.

Yun Ran waved her hand dismissively: "Rich people are all like this, acting all mysterious and eccentric. You'll get used to it."

The ginseng fruit immediately realized that its host was right; wasn't that just superstition? It was really crazy.

When Yunran returned to her seat, the Tan family had already left.

"Third Miss, what happened just now? Why did the Tan family leave in such a hurry?"

"Mind your own business."

Assistant Number Three: ...

All he could say was that the Third Miss was incredibly generous; anyone else would have been reluctant to let go of such connections. What a pity.

The Hosono family kept an eye on the Tan family after they arrived.

Their hearts sank even further when they saw Yun Ran chatting and laughing with the man from the Tan family who clearly held a position of influence.

If the Bartley family's aggressive behavior is compounded by the involvement of the Tan family, they will face double the pressure.

The Hosono family's negotiator gestured to Hosono Nako to pause the negotiations.

Both sides entered a temporary break.

"Miss, I'm afraid we can't continue this stalemate with the Yun family. Yun Ran has a very close relationship with the Tan family..."

Hosono Naoko has also had a tough time these days. She originally returned to Japan with the intention of making great strides, but little did she expect that one wrong step would lead to another.

At this moment, her gaze had lost its previous high spirits and was now fixed on the direction of the Yun family with a sinister look.

"Give way another 20%, and tell them that if they don't agree, then it's a fight to the death!"

Clearly, the current situation has reached Hosono Nako's bottom line. If her bottom line is crossed, then no one will have a good time.

After the break, the negotiations went much more smoothly, and the two sides quickly reached an agreement.

The Yun family received satisfactory compensation, but they became mortal enemies with the Hosono family.

From now on, whenever we meet in the business world, it will definitely be a fight to the death.

Yun Jingyang had to be wary of them, so he naturally had to make more preparations and was so busy that he didn't have time to pay attention to Yun Ran.

Hosono Naoko's eyes were filled with murderous intent, completely locked onto Yun Ran, as if she wouldn't be able to swallow her anger until she killed her.

From afar, Yunran clearly saw Hosono Naoko's silent mouth movements: "Just you wait, I'll kill you sooner or later!"

Yunran felt truly wronged. Could she say that it was all a coincidence?

It's all that idiot Yun Qing's fault, and now she's the scapegoat.
