Ginsengfruit sohow sat next to them, holding an apple, just as Yun Jinyang ntioned the trouble.
The sound of "crunch" "crunch" suddenly rang out.
Yun Ran and Yun Jinyang both simultaneously turned to look at him, making Ginsengfruit feel a bit choked.
Awkwardly standing up: "I’ll go to the room to watch cartoons~"
Finished speaking, he toddled away with his little short legs.
Looking at Ginsengfruit’s state, Yun Jinyang knew that Yun Ran really doted on and trusted this little disciple.
He didn’t think there was anything wrong with that, but he felt Ginsengfruit was too young, and what if he accidentally spilled sothing?
Carefully choosing his words, he said: "The kid is still young, for important matters later, I suggest..."
The rest of his words, Yun Jinyang didn’t spell out directly, but the aning was clear.
Yun Ran understood Yun Jinyang’s good intentions, but she was soone with a strong sense of territory. For general matters, it didn’t matter much.
But when it ca to the people and things around her, she wouldn’t simply gloss over them.
She spoke directly: "In this world, besides , no one can get a truthful word out of Ginsengfruit’s mouth!"
Yun Jinyang sensed Yun Ran’s implied ’attack’ and imdiately understood what she ant.
He quickly changed the topic: "The Yun Family had started contacting the aristocratic families here in the Capital City many years ago, but unfortunately, the progress hasn’t been very smooth.
Over these years, it has only managed to build slight ties with people on the fringes, and as for the Wang Family, the Yun Family previously connected with people on the old madam of the Wang Family’s side."
Yun Ran: ...
She had previously slapped the old madam of the Wang Family in the face hard, and the Yun Family’s network, which had invested a lot of manpower and resources, wasn’t just damaged; it was completely shattered!
Yun Ran suddenly looked at Yun Jinyang with so guilt: "If I tell you that I stomped and rubbed the Wang Family’s old lady’s top confidant under my foot, how much loss would the Yun Family suffer?"
For Yun Ran to say "stomped and rubbed," it required thinking of the situation in the most serious way.
Yun Jinyang paused before asking: "What did you do?"
But seeing no anger on Yun Jinyang’s face, only faint worry, Yun Ran felt a little less guilty.
She then briefly explained the matter.
Yun Jinyang had thought of many possibilities of Yun Ran offending the other party.
But he never expected that Yun Ran actually instructed her little disciple to completely strip the facade of the Wang Family’s chief steward on the Wang Family’s turf.
Now there wasn’t even a chance for rescue.
Previously, he had thought about pretending to break up with Yun Ran, not putting all eggs in one basket, but ended up with neither chicken nor egg.
Even for soone like Yun Jinyang, who thought he had strong endurance, at this mont, he too didn’t feel like speaking.
After several minutes, having finally composed himself, he sighed slightly.
"Forget it, let’s just consider the past investnts as wasted efforts; from now on, it’s better for us to stand united."
With that, Yun Jinyang was going to go out and make phone calls; since the previous network couldn’t be used, many business projects needed tily damage control.
Otherwise, when the Wang Family retaliated later, the losses would be even greater.
Yun Ran, single-handedly, successfully made Yun Jinyang join the overti ranks again, with no ti even for als.
Watching Yun Jinyang and his assistant start working remotely, Yun Ran quietly vacated the study.
Ginsengfruit noticed the diminished atmosphere in the living room and peeked his little head to see only Yun Ran left.
Only then did he co out, patting his chest, clearly looking like he had narrowly escaped disaster.
"Host, why did you sell out just now!!!"
He was really afraid of Yun Jinyang’s eyes. Although Yun Jinyang didn’t scold, those eyes staring at a person would make one inexplicably nervous.
"Just say it, did you hit the person or not!"
Ginsengfruit: ...
Now he finally understood why previously, the host’s fellow apprentices both loved and hated Yun Ran.
Helping others was truly risking life and limb to help, but when it ca to dodging responsibilities, it was really slick, definitely a habitual offender!
"The Yun Family won’t go bankrupt, will it?"
"That wouldn’t happen, although Wang Mian is half dead, he surely has loyally devoted people under him, otherwise, the Wang Family would already be in chaos now.
Even if the old madam of the Wang Family wanted to take out anger on the Yun Family, it would have to wait until Wang Mian bites the dust and his influence is completely dismantled.
But with around, Wang Mian won’t easily bite the dust, so the Wang Family might just cause minor troubles, making the Yun Family lose so money and resources."
However, these losses are only temporary, and when Wang Mian recovers, she plans to claim it back doubly.
"I thought you would ask Xie Xuzhi for help, since among those we know, only the Xie Family could rival the Wang Family."
ntioning Xie Xuzhi, Yun Ran’s grievances surged: "Pfft, who wants his help, getting involved with him ans big losses!"
She indeed earned quite a bit because of Xie Xuzhi previously.
But she also diligently helped Xie Xuzhi with many things, clearly a fair trade.
But now, just because of her tiny bit of goodwill, her Life-bound Magical Treasure almost couldn’t be preserved, making Yun Ran feel she lost out badly.
Such significant favors naturally should be used at the most opportune mont; going to him for such trivial matters would spell further losses!
Ginsengfruit naturally knew the host’s nature. Eat anything, but don’t take a loss; so things she could concede, but so things, she wouldn’t back down even if it killed her.
"Exactly, favors should be used precisely, no giving them the benefit!"
In the hospital ward, Xie Xuzhi kept sneezing several tis; fortunately, his wounds had all scabbed; otherwise, they’d have split open.
Gu Yuan was reporting certain movents within the Special Administration Bureau when he heard Xie Xuzhi sneeze.
Confidently saying: "Boss, it must be those people cursing you behind your back!"
Xie Xuzhi rolled his eyes directly, his throat having recovered quite a bit, though his voice was still a bit hoarse.
"If you keep babbling, go mine gold overseas!"
Gu Yuan: ...
Jeez, can’t take a joke at all.
But on the outside, he imdiately put on a pleading expression: "Boss, I was wrong, really wrong..."
"Those folks in the Special Administration Bureau wanting to inquire about the new deputy and director appointnts, let them snoop; just keep an eye on them.
In a few days, I’ll return to the Xie Family, and in half a month, I’ll make a formal appearance, by then, I’ll deal with them all at once!"
