"No way!"
Family Head Lin anticipated that Yun Ran would make bold demands, but he never imagined she could be so greedy.
This behavior was like slapping their interest group hard across the face.
Yang Mansion is a symbol of status; losing the Yang Mansion would strip them of any dignity, both inside and out, in this circle.
Even admitting to the Yang family’s past mistakes was out of the question, let alone relinquishing Yang Mansion.
The faces of those standing with the Yang family were all sneering in disbelief, clearly thinking that Yun Ran was biting off more than she could chew.
"What arrogance, what a big talker for a toad lusting after swan at!"
Yun Jinyang knew before coming that Yun Ran would surely haul in a big catch, but he didn’t expect her to go this big.
If he hadn’t been stable at core, he would be losing his composure and making a fool of himself now.
As for the people from the She Family, since it was their first ti dealing with Yun Ran and they had not yet gathered enough information about her,
they lost their composure upon hearing Yun Ran’s words, even suspecting there was sothing wrong with their hearing.
Why else would they hear a re adopted daughter from the wealthy Yun Family dare to ask for Yang Mansion?
The She Family, an offshoot allied through marriage to the Xie Family, had a prestigious status themselves but would never dare to ask for such a thing.
"Has she gone mad? How dare she make such a demand!"
"Could this be the fearlessness of the inexperienced calf? Does her arrogance an she’s shooting for the sky?"
"Shush, keep it down. Don’t let others hear you, it’s utterly embarrassing!"
...
Ginsengfruit sensed the muttering among their allies and beca irritated.
[What’s wrong with these people? Why are they pouring oil on the fire? Such behavior is even more annoying than those on the opposing side!]
Yun Ran did not comfort Ginsengfruit. It would be difficult to explain to a system how complex human nature can be.
It was all too common for ’one’s own people’ to kick soone when they seed weak in the eyes of others.
After scanning the surroundings, Yun Ran smiled and said, "This is a notification, not a discussion. Whether you accept it or not, doesn’t matter."
Since these people did not want to go through the proper channels, she’d take matters into her own hands.
Yun Ran took out her mobile phone and, in front of everyone, made a whistleblower call and reported in her real na.
After hanging up, Yun Ran looked at ng Family Patriarch and Family Head Lin with a sardonic smile: "If I were you, I’d pray that this doesn’t involve ."
If it was anyone else reporting, the incident would most likely be suppressed, but with Yun Ran’s real-na report, suppressing it was impossible.
Not to ntion, she had already contacted the secret lines within the police; even a revered figure like Yang Family Master could not escape scrutiny.
Previously, there was no solid evidence, but now that Yun Ran was fishing for evidence, she naturally wasn’t going to face it alone; she had rallied all possible allies.
If she was not mistaken, this special task force was definitely led by Song Ye.
Song Ye was known for his stubbornness, not to ntion, her Little Paperman had achieved so many rits at his side.
If not for her refusal, Song Ye would want to credit all those rits to her; in his heart, she was truly ’one of his own’.
Yun Ran’s call, like a signal, quickly led to others receiving calls too.
Obviously, they had their information channels; the calls were to notify them to preserve their integrity.
ng Family Patriarch, after hanging up the phone, looked as venomous as if he was poisoned, wishing he could tear Yun Ran to pieces.
The looks from others weren’t any better; at this mont, to them, Yun Ran was nothing but a lunatic.
All their words ultimately condensed into one line: "Just you wait to be settled by the aristocratic families of Capital City!"
Song Ye and his team had been waiting; not even 10 minutes after Yun Ran’s call, they arrived.
Holding a full chain of evidence in their hands, with Yun Ran looking the part of a victim, the whole squad was fuming.
This was Little Paperman’s owner, for heaven’s sake, this Yang Wu was despicable, to have tornted such a young lady this way!
Others: Could your bias be any thicker—who’s tornting who again?
Song Ye made no attempt to hide his partiality. Looking scornfully at the others, his rollicking stance said, "Those who are not involved in this case, please leave the premises to avoid compromising the cri scene!"
People represented by the ng and Lin families had never felt so speechless and humiliated; when were they ever dismissed like this?
"How dare you speak to like this! Even your superiors wouldn’t dare!"
Song Ye snorted disdainfully, "Then call my superiors here and kick out if you can!"
At this exact mont, Yun Ran, with her sarcastic comnts, added fuel to the fire: "Captain Song, would this count as a threat?"
Song Ye naturally picked up on the cue, "Threatening an officer on duty in person, regardless of status, is subjected to investigation without exception!"
"Pfft—so people really think too highly of themselves."
Everyone: ...
Damn, Yun Ran that maniac, always catching and daring to say anything!
ng Family Patriarch and Family Head Lin exchanged glances, aware that the situation was unfavorable for them, decided to retreat temporarily.
"Hmph, let’s hope you can always be this smooth then!"
As they watched them leave with their people, not a single one of Song Ye’s n stopped them—not because they did not want to, but because they could not.
Just then, that Master Yun and the chief could team up to embarrass the opposition was already their limit.
If they had the guts to really confront these people, it would definitely an an early retirent from their careers.
The once background-role bodyguards sprang into action, diligently leading Song Ye’s team to search for criminal evidence.
"Everyone watch your step, don’t ss up this place; it will be my turf from now on!"
Song Ye: ...
Although we are on the sa side, you’re too informal—processes haven’t even been completed, and you are already declaring Yang Mansion yours.
Unbeknownst to others, they might think we’ve colluded together, plotting against the Yang Family’s assets!
"I feel like, on occasion, you don’t really need to speak up; when you do, you always exude a villainous aura."
Ginsengfruit burst into laughter: [Hahaha, Host, Captain Song is quite amusing. When you first t, he was suspicious of you and even stalked you for three days.
Now he thinks you have the aura of a villain. I think he might really want to catch you with his own hands.]
"Ginsengfruit, you’re being a bit too cryptic!"
