Chapter 221 If you are not jealous, you are mediocre

Tan Chengbi was somewhat lucky; despite a minor hiccup, he managed to destroy the antique mirror without any major mishaps.

Although it looked like the same courtyard as before, he could still sense some subtle differences, such as the temperature being much cooler.

The quiet courtyard was gradually filled with sounds.

"The old lady hasn't been sleeping well these past few days, you should quickly send her some calming soup..."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, a smile finally appeared on Tan Chengbi's face.

The person who was speaking noticed someone behind him, turned around, and saw that their young master had appeared out of thin air in the courtyard.

The butler was completely dumbfounded. When did the Helian family's manor become so unsafe?

Even though the young master could come and go as he pleased, the butler didn't notice anything when so many people suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

What left him speechless was that a faint, unpleasant odor wafted over.

The butler's face paled as he thought of something.

He asked tentatively, "Young Master, when did you arrive?"

Tan Chengbi clearly didn't want to answer his questions, and said directly, "Hasn't your aunt rested yet? Go wait in the outer courtyard, and no matter what you see, don't ask any questions."

The butler glanced at Tan Chengbi; it was the first time he had ever seen such a solemn expression on the young master's face.

He silently shut his mouth, nodded, and then headed towards the outer courtyard.

After watching the butler leave, the assistant said to the people who came in behind him, "You all go and clean up this filth."

Before, there was no way to destroy the antique mirror, but now, these things can no longer remain here.

Tan Chengbi pushed open the gate to Madam Helian's courtyard and went inside alone.

Half an hour later, he came out, and no one knows what he said to the old lady Helian inside.

The assistant only noticed that the young master's expression was not good, so he carefully followed in his footsteps without daring to ask what had happened.

The stench that had been lingering in the air was now completely gone, and even the destroyed antique mirror had been cleaned up.

"Get ready to go back."

Upon hearing this, the assistant nodded reflexively, then looked up in surprise: "Young Master, you mean..."

"Go back to country Y."

The assistant was stunned. It was obvious that things here hadn't been handled well, and the young master actually said he wanted to go back to China. Could it be that the old lady had said something?
But he didn't dare ask, always feeling that the young master now had an indescribable air of decadence about him.

"Yes, I'll go and arrange the flight routes right away."

People from families like theirs have their own planes and routes, no matter where they go. They can arrange everything with just one phone call and leave immediately.

The next day, Yunran learned from Gu Yuan that Tan Chengbi had already left the Sakura Country.

This surprised Yunran: "Wait, wasn't he the one who was negotiating with the Special Administration Bureau about this matter? The matter hasn't been resolved yet, so why did he leave so quietly?"

Gu Yuan wasn't sure either, but he could probably guess.

Now that the Tan family and the Helian family have sent important figures, he, as a junior, naturally doesn't have much say.

"I'm not too sure, but the people from the Helian family are quite capable. They managed to rescue that old lady Helian..." Yun Ran felt something was off as she listened, and then she felt a little guilty. It was she who told Tan Chengbi how they rescued her.

Now it seems the Special Administration Bureau has lost face, and Yun Ran was just about to touch up something.

Then Gu Yuan said, "That's good. Let them fight it out themselves. Stop watching us like we're trying to dig up some secrets."

A knock came at the door, interrupting Gu Yuan's words.

"Oh, I didn't expect someone else to come looking for you."

As he spoke, Gu Yuan stood up to open the door, and upon seeing it, he found it was Xie Xuzhi's trusted confidant.

"Brother Yuan, Ranran, the master wants you to go over there."

Yunran is currently on leave for work-related injury, so normally, she wouldn't come looking for her unless it was something extremely important.

Gu Yuan had already expertly pushed the wheelchair over from the ward, clearly feeling that Yun Ran was extremely vulnerable and needed to be taken good care of.

Xie Xuzhi's confidant looked at the wheelchair and his lips twitched. He had seen Ranran kick someone with flying kick just yesterday. Her skills were incredibly agile.

However, since they are our own people, we naturally show some favoritism. It's a fact that Ranran is injured, so it's only right that we take extra care of her.

"Come on, I'll push you across myself!"

Yun Ran was only slightly embarrassed, but then she sat down without any qualms. Opportunities to be so openly lazy like this were rare.

Xie Xuzhi and his group were in the leisure club next to the private hospital. The facilities in this area were all privately owned by the Tan family and the Helian family.

Yunran was pushed forward and soon arrived at a large guest room.

There were quite a few people inside, including several who had been rescued by Yun Ran before. The person who looked exactly like Tan Chengbi was also there.

As soon as Yun Ran entered, she felt several unfriendly gazes fall upon her.

Gu Yuan whispered to Yun Ran, "It seems that you really can attract hostility from these people wherever you go."

"What do you know? This is called 'mediocre people are not envied.' Obviously, they are jealous of me. You can't be envious of me."

Gu Yuan: ...

I knew Yun Ran before; at times, his skin was practically impenetrable. But now, he's the one who's embarrassed.

However, while Gu Yuan was thinking about Yun Ran, he still stepped forward to shield her from those unfriendly stares when he saw them.

What kind of thing dares to look at Yun Ran like that!

Xie Xuzhi glanced at Yun Ran before addressing the people who had raised questions earlier: "I've already found the person. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Upon hearing this, Yunran immediately understood that what she had anticipated had happened.

She pushed aside Gu Yuan, who was blocking her way, stood up, and walked to an empty seat next to Xie Xuzhi.

She sat down calmly; she and Xie Xuzhi had this much in common.

This position was clearly meant for her, and Xie Xuzhi was clearly on her side.

Those familiar with Xie Xuzhi know that he is always one to persuade others with reason and never acts arbitrarily because of his status.

The only reason we brought her over was to silence these people.
