Having just disembarked from the plane, a group of people saw quite a spectacle.
Nearby the airport’s bridge, a crowd had gathered, chattering incessantly.
"Just jump if you want to, it’s definitely for show. I’ve been watching for a while; if she really wanted to jump, she would have done so already."
"Is this a movie shoot? That woman is pretty."
"Eldest Lady, please don’t despair."
"Lady, please stay calm, anything can be discussed."
...
Yun Ran looked from a distance and saw a young woman dressed in a Haute Couture suit standing on the railing of the overpass as if lost in a trance.
Seeing such a scene, Yun Ran’s gaze darkened. The young woman was radiating a chilling coldness; she had clearly been set up.
Otherwise, who would willingly stand on the railing of a bridge over the sea? Any person with a slight fear of heights would have weak knees and have to start all over again.
Yun Ran was too far away to see the woman’s face clearly, hence couldn’t divine her fate – a pity.
Then she looked down under the bridge and estimated the vertical height to be over ten ters; a fall from there would be straight to the crematory.
Police officers were slowly approaching from behind the woman, and then, catching her off guard, they grabbed her hand - thankfully averting danger.
[Host, that woman seems to be none other than the eldest daughter of the Zhao Family, Zhao Mingzhu!]
Yun Ran was imdiately surprised; she initially thought it was a bystander but turned out to be the Zhao family’s eldest daughter.
However, she wondered how she ended up there.
After thinking for a while, Yun Ran cast a Magic Spell on Zhao Mingzhu to temporarily ensure her safety.
Zhao Mingzhu, who had been in a daze, suddenly regained clarity in her mind when the Magic Spell from Yun Ran entered her body.
Looking around at her surroundings, she furrowed her brows harshly. Was she suffering from her illness again?
Originally, everyone thought her father sent her abroad out of concern that she might get involved in family politics.
But in fact, she had been suffering from a strange illness since childhood, and he feared that it would strip her of her inheritance rights if discovered.
This ti her father had fought through many disagreents to secure an opportunity for her, yet she had barely returned before her illness struck again.
Suddenly, Zhao Mingzhu’s gaze pierced through the crowd and looked in the direction of Yun Ran, although not directly at anyone.
But her instincts told her that her swift recovery must have been due to soone’s intervention, soone in the direction she was looking.
[Host, this Zhao Mingzhu is quite perceptive; she can sense your presence. It’s just not clear whether the thing inside her was planted by soone else or is sothing she cultivated herself.]
Yun Ran took a look and affird: "It’s not sothing she cultivated."
The Zhao family’s people quickly arrived, purchasing photos that bystanders had taken with money and having them sign non-disclosure agreents.
That’s what you call Huanan’s Richest—such financial power is not sothing just anyone can wield.
Yun Ran and her group were among those ’bought off’.
Zhao Mingzhu personally approached Yun Ran’s group and until her eyes landed on the faces of Yun Jinyang and others, a glimr of dark light flashed in her eyes.
"So it’s Mr. Yun and Eldest Lady Zhu."
Yun Ran, Yun Wan, and the others were all overlooked, but no one dared to voice any objections.
Yun Jinyang and Zhu Xuejun did not know Zhao Mingzhu, but her easy recognition of them, together with the forr’s financial power, led them to guess her identity, which made Yun Jinyang feel a bit uncomfortable.
Zhao Mingzhu was generous. Knowing that Yun Jinyang’s group wasn’t the kind that could be silenced with money, she directly offered Yun Jinyang and Zhu Xuejun each a lucrative project opportunity.
As she left, Zhao Mingzhu’s gaze once again turned towards Yun Ran’s direction.
"Check who Mr. Yun has brought."
The assistant, who had grown up with Zhao Mingzhu, was well aware of a special ability she possessed, which was her incredibly accurate intuition.
Over the years abroad, her intuition had proved to be a great help.
"Yes, I’ll look into it right away!"
Before Yun Ran’s group had even reached their hotel, the Zhao family’s people had already gathered detailed information on all of them.
Soon, Zhao Mingzhu’s attention was fixed on Yun Ran’s profile.
"Contact Miss Yun Ran, please. I would like to discuss sothing with her."
Being the eldest daughter of the Zhao family, she had fallen ill at the age of five. Her father paid a significant price to ensure her safety. Now that she had returned, she would not let anyone beco a hurdle in her path.
Upon reaching the hotel, Yun Ran curiously looked around, while the accompanying staff followed behind her with the luggage.
Yun Wan looked disdainfully at Yun Ran, thinking of her as a country bumpkin. The more Yun Ran seed this way, the more Yun Wan felt the need to perform well and trample the despicable Yun Ran underfoot.
At a glance, Yun Wan indeed held an air of ’This ti, I will take back what’s mine.’
Out of nowhere, Yun Jinyang’s assistant approached and respectfully handed him a tablet.
"Mr. Yun, here’s the latest information our people have gathered."
Not only had the Zhao family investigated them, but Yun Jinyang had also imdiately instructed his assistant to check on the Zhao family’s recent affairs as soon as they left.
Yun Jinyang took the tablet and saw information about the internal affairs of the Zhao family, Huanan’s richest clan.
Don’t think that just because this isn’t Hai City, the Yun Family’s influence isn’t present.
No one knows who Yun Family’s insider here is, but the fact that even the Zhao family’s internal affairs are known indicates the insider’s status is far from ordinary.
Mr. Zhao’s health was failing, and various branches of the Zhao family were covertly fighting for their own interests and power.
Holding the 3% shares gifted at her birth, plus her father’s shares, it wouldn’t be difficult for the Zhao family’s eldest daughter to secure the CEO position.
However, all of this hinged on a condition: that she was in good health. The scene he just witnessed might be a weakness of the Zhao family daughter.
Capturing an opponent’s weakness could reshuffle many aspects of their upcoming cooperation.
But Yun Jinyang’s expression quickly turned somber; if he could guess this, so could Zhu Xuejun.
If too many people learned of this weakness, the exclusive advantage would be gone.
Without revealing much emotion, Yun Jinyang turned to his companions: "Alright, you can go down now. Rest well today."
"Understood, Mr. Yun."
Yun Ran was allocated a presidential suite. Hearing that the hotel’s most famous feature was the hot spring pool, she decided to indulge and enjoy it.
