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

Chapter 697 Discovered the Joy of Being a Villain (2 Updates)
Being so blatantly disliked by Yun Ran again, Xuan Chu wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Normally, he only needs to focus on the big picture; as for the minor details, he just needs to give an order, and someone else will take care of it.

Now that those dedicated staff are gone, he seems rather out of touch with reality.

However, Xuan Chu did not feel that Yun Ran had hurt his pride, and he still seriously reflected on his actions.

"You're right. There are some things I may not do, but I must know how to do them so that I won't be fooled in the future."

On the way to the airport, Yunran stuck a talisman on Erdan to make sure that it wouldn't be detected as a living creature during the security check.

Seeing Yun Ran still holding that black umbrella in the car, Xuan Chu wisely kept his mouth shut.

Since Yunran did this, there must be a reason why she did it.

Perhaps Yunran was too composed. Even though some people found it strange when they saw this scene at the airport, no one asked why.

Even when I was sitting in first class on the plane, holding an umbrella, no one asked me anything.

As for people taking pictures in places Yunran can't see, it's normal to see them on her own phone, but once they're sent out, they all become pixelated, and Yunran doesn't care at all.

When they arrived in Haicheng, the driver, Lao Liu, was already waiting. He saw Yun Ran and the others coming out from afar and quickly went up to them.

I originally came up to get my luggage, but I saw that Yun Ran and Mr. Xuan, whom I had met once before, were both empty-handed.

"Miss, where is your luggage?"

"Oh, we've hired a moving company to deliver it. You can go and hand it over to them later."

Old Liu quickly replied, "Yes, Miss."

As he spoke, he went to open the car door for Yunran.

After getting in the car, Lao Liu reported some important matters, and finally mentioned why Renshenguo hadn't come to pick him up at the airport.

Yun Ran nodded slightly. Of course she knew the inside story, but she pretended to be a newcomer.

After all, she and the ginseng fruit were bound by soul, and she hadn't even explained it in detail to her junior uncle, so it was impossible for anyone else to know.

Fortunately, Ginseng Fruit wasn't a real child; otherwise, the affairs of Qingfeng Temple alone would have exhausted him.

Not to mention, he also had to oversee the entire process of the banquet the Yun family was going to hold for Yun Ran's coming-of-age ceremony.

It wasn't that Yun Jingyang wanted to slack off, but rather that with the change in Yun Ran's status, the Yun family's attitude towards Yun Ran had become quite cautious.

The most important part is something the Yun family doesn't dare to easily interfere with.

Whether they were worried about messing things up and affecting their relationship with Yunran, or they wanted to show Yunran their respect.

In short, the Yun family members are very mindful of boundaries at this moment, and all important matters are entrusted to Yun Ran's trusted confidants.

Back at the Ran Mansion, Yunran finally felt a sense of relief, as if she had returned home.

This was Xuan Chu's first time stepping into the Ran Mansion. As soon as he entered, he sensed that there was a seemingly peaceful array inside the Ran Mansion, but it also concealed countless life-giving and killing intents.

This array, full of contradictions, piqued Xuan Chu's interest.

"Can I look around?"

Yun Ran waved her hand dismissively: "Look around as you please."

The array formations in Ran Mansion were all set up by her personally. Even if someone who has no intention of killing her were to recklessly touch those formations, nothing serious would happen to them.

Moreover, each formation is interconnected, and those in the know can even gain some inspiration from it. The servants at the Ran Mansion are well aware of Yun Ran's temperament and preferences. Since Yun Ran's return, they have been working quietly and have not caused any trouble.

The work here is easy, there are no messy assessments, and not even the strange quirks of the rich.

Most importantly, the wages are high, and everyone cherishes their jobs here.

Xuan Chu looked around. The little garden was full of life, the glass greenhouse was positioned to bring good fortune, and the backyard was extremely well-defended...

Even with just a quick glance, Xuan Chu could tell that Yun Ran had put a lot of thought and effort into arranging the place like this.

Looking at the exquisite details everywhere, you can tell that Yunran is a person who loves life.

The longer Xuan Chu spent with Yun Ran, the more he felt that Yun Ran was completely different from the Xuanmen masters he knew.

He even thought that if Yunran's backlash continued to be bad and she could only live as an ordinary person, Yunran would not turn evil and hate everyone.

She will continue to love life, and even find her own joy, living happily every day.

Such a person would not have any obsessions, much less become a world-destroying demon.

Thinking of this, Xuan Chu looked towards the sky.

For the first time, a hint of doubt arose regarding the will of Heaven.

Could it be that because Yun Ran is from another world, her current body has had its destiny stolen, leading to her early death?

Is that why Heaven fears her and considers her an extraordinary being?

After this thought arose, Xuan Chu's gaze turned to the main building where Yun Ran was.

He wasn't stupid. Yun Ran was completely unguarded with him, which was actually a calculated move against him, but he still fell for it.

Xuan Chu knew with certainty that, whether now or in the future, he could not become Yun Ran's enemy.

With a soft sigh, Xuan Chu took a step and sat down on Yun Ran's personal swing set.

After making his decision, Xuan Chu inexplicably felt much lighter and began to close his eyes to enjoy this rare moment of tranquility.

Yun Ran had no idea that despite all the things she had done, she had not completely dispelled Xuan Chu's apprehension.

Who would have thought that just wandering around the Ran Mansion would make him completely swayed towards her? If he had known, he would have invited Xuan Chu to be his guest sooner.

When Xuan Chu returned, he didn't know if he was itching to do something or if he was just feeling restless, but he plucked quite a few of Yun Ran's flowers.

By the time Yunran came out after changing her clothes, the little paper figures had already gone off to play with their own toys.

When I saw the little paper figures happily playing with Lego and building blocks...

Xuan Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, but uttered extremely cold words: "I remember, when Uncle Yan left, he said he wanted you to be put in solitary confinement!"

Yunran: ...

Little paper doll: ……

Neither they nor Yunran had forgotten the matter that their junior uncle had told them to be confined when he left.

At this moment, Xuan Chu seemed somewhat repulsive to them.

It turns out that a person's appearance can really be changed by the 'harshness' they express when they speak!
"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

Xuan Chu's smile remained gentle, especially when he saw Yun Ran and the little paper dolls somewhat breaking down. He suddenly realized the joy of being a villain.
