Accustod to controlling dominance and manipulating others, Si Man’s face turned ugly imdiately after Yun Ran’s voice fell.
The classmates who rushed after Yun Ran wanted to hide themselves in the crowd, desperately hoping not to be noticed.
They feared becoming the targets of displaced anger; although their families were quite wealthy, they dared not provoke Si Man.
Yun Ran couldn’t care less and casually took out her bank card, "At first glance, you all look like a shabby troupe, never having played any classy challenges.
The stakes are here, oh, look at , I got led astray by you all and forgot to call for soone to verify the funds and to act as a witness."
Speaking of which, Yun Ran imdiately made a phone call to Principal Du.
Since she had the connections, why wouldn’t she use them? And Principal Du wasn’t hiding or holding back either, having already extended a helping leg, so naturally, she wouldn’t be polite.
Throughout the process, she ignored the gazes of those around her and rattled off her demands.
Principal Du was silent for a few seconds before saying, "No problem."
After hanging up the phone, Yun Ran looked at Si Man with a regretful expression: "Oh dear, look at , I’m too efficient in getting things done, I actually forgot to ask Senior Sister Si, do you have fifty million ready for the stakes?
What if the fund verifier arrives and you can’t produce the money? How embarrassed you’d be, and then your shabby troupe’s challenge would beco a joke."
Yet the expression on Yun Ran’s face was devoid of sarcasm, leaving no opening for anyone to criticize her.
Si Man felt like tearing Yun Ran’s face apart; she had originally planned to give Yun Ran a thrashing in broad daylight, to vent on behalf of Sister Yun Qing.
Who could have expected that she would be cornered like this?
Si Man truly didn’t have fifty million; although her pocket money was ample, her expenditures were even greater.
Si Man’s hand had clenched into a fist, and what was even more unacceptable was that Yun Ran had managed to get the school involved in this matter, sothing the school usually never bothered with.
Those who had been dealt with by her, whether themselves or their families, had to apologize to her in the end; no one dared to resist.
Principal Du had Special Assistant Yan prepare everything, planning to personally act as the so-called witness.
"Principal, you’ve never bothered with these things before. Let go instead. If you show up, I’m afraid the Si Family won’t let it go easily."
Although Special Assistant Yan had not experienced Yun Ran’s tactics, in this mont, he inexplicably believed that Yun Ran would not lose.
Principal Du shook his head: "You don’t carry enough weight. Fifty million is not a small sum, and the Si Family will definitely alert the school board.
Before, Si Man was bullying others with soone backing her, and the oppressed students and their parents only sought to smooth things over, making it difficult for to take action.
Now, Yun Ran has handed this opportunity, so naturally, I won’t let it pass."
Special Assistant Yan did not persuade any further; the principal was doing his best to fight for fairness for everyone.
Yet sotis, the principal isn’t omnipotent and can only aim for the best compromise for all under the circumstances.
This matter was no longer just a dispute between Yun Ran and the Miss of the Si Family; it had turned into a confrontation at the highest levels of the school establishnt.
As Yun Ran had expected, the Si Family could not afford to lose face, and in the end, Si Man still ended up calling her elders at ho to report the situation.
What started as bullying disguised as a friendly challenge among classmates had turned into a power struggle involving the school’s hierarchy, the Si Family, and the Yun Family.
When Yun Jinyang received a call from the school, for a mont he doubted his own ears.
Nevertheless, he calmly finished his conversation and hung up, directing his secretary to cancel all following appointnts as he needed to visit the school.
As he got into the car, Yun Jinyang couldn’t understand how he, who had led a smooth life, had co to face a parent-teacher eting.
Especially since the other party was his unrelated stepsister – ever since Yun Ran stopped pretending, Yun Jinyang felt many things had gone awry.
Old Liu briefed Yun Jinyang on what had happened as he awaited him at the school entrance.
After listening, Yun Jinyang felt a hint of regret; he shouldn’t have forced Yun Ran to attend school, as the girl’s trouble-causing ability was truly top-notch.
"I really didn’t expect the Yun Family to be so generous, even the child you drag along has so much money at hand, allowing her to strut around."
Hearing the voice coming from behind him, Yun Jinyang turned around to see Si Tong, known for her ruthlessness, the late-born daughter of the elderly master of the Si Family.
"President Si, you’re being too severe. Ranran is our Yun Family’s third young miss, not so burden."
No matter the reputation of Yun Ran, the Yun Family had never treated her poorly.
"Humph!"
Si Tong, alongside her entourage, walked past Yun Jinyang without any respect.
A glint of coldness flashed through Yun Jinyang’s eyes as he followed.
The martial arts practice field had entirely changed its appearance, and the onlookers by the side, sohow, couldn’t stop the words Yun Ran said about Si Man and her entourage being a shoddy troupe from echoing in their heads.
Now it seed, indeed it did, that the affair was now much more proper.
Many high-ranking officials from the school had arrived, seemingly harmonious, but only they knew the clear lines drawn between them.
Yun Ran nonchalantly handed her bank card to the fund verifier.
The verification was quickly passed, and it was Si Man’s turn.
Yun Ran also couldn’t help but add, "What a pity that I’m quite poor, not like Senior Sister Si, the daughter of the richest family, such an amount of money, you surely wouldn’t even bat an eye at it."
At this mont, Si Man’s gaze was as venomous as poisoned darts; if before, she rely wanted to retaliate for Yun Qing, now she truly wished she could kill Yun Ran on the spot.
Yun Jinyang arrived just in ti to hear Yun Ran’s insufferable remark.
He inexplicably felt much more balanced inside; it turns out that Yun Ran’s sharp tongue and sarcasm were quite satisfying when directed at others.
"Utterly ill-mannered!"
An abrupt scolding sounded; Yun Ran turned her head and saw a young woman wrapped in hostility, sowhat resembling Si Man.
Upon seeing her blatant disgust, as if Yun Ran were sothing akin to dog feces, Yun Ran’s eyes flickered and she suddenly let out a light laugh: "Yes, yes, I’m the least mannered of all. Your Si Family has good manners and is incredibly incorruptible, challenging others only to swindle sothing for nothing.
If I may say, this must surely be a long-standing family tradition of yours, oh, alas, unlike , an honest and straightforward person."
