Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 223 - 222: Life Is Getting Worse
Chapter 223: Chapter 222: Life Is Getting Worse
Yun Ran looked harmless with her soft, sticky wounds, but the doctor’s heart trembled as he bandaged her up, being extra gentle for fear of causing her pain.
"Lady Yun, your wound should not be exposed to the wind..."
Despite using the best medicine on Yun Ran to remove scars as much as possible, if she didn’t heal properly during the recovery period, scars would definitely form.
Yun Ran waved her hand, obviously unconcerned, as she had her own ways even if scars were left.
"I got it."
The doctor sighed in his heart as he saw Yun Ran’s reaction.
Alas, although this private high-end hospital paid well, these people were always walking on thin ice.
Xie Xuzhi’s confidant never relaxed his furrowed brows, but Yun Ran’s face showed no sign of the frustration from disfigurement, which left him with nothing to say.
"I’ll take you back to the hospital now."
No sooner had she returned to the ward, Yun Ran saw that a courier envelope had been added to the room.
The hospital staff had already been instructed that no one, except authorized personnel, should casually enter their ward. ƒгeewebnovёl_com
She had only been away for a while, and someone had already placed something inside.
It seemed that someone wanted to give her something.
Yun Ran stepped forward, tore open the seal, and took out an offline mobile phone from inside, with a small note next to it hinting at the power-on password.
Indeed, only she would know this password, and moreover, the phone was set up so that if the password was entered incorrectly even once, all the data on the phone would be destroyed automatically.
"What’s this, all secretive."
After successfully powering on the phone, Yun Ran confirmed that this was something given to her by Tan Chengbi—in it, there was a recording.
It turned out that the person who had been possessed by the Water Dragon Dragon Spirit was actually a member of the direct lineage of the Helian Family who had been sent away at birth.
When Tan Chengbi asked for help, the Tan Family was willing to spend a lot of money to ask the Xie Family to mediate not because they cared about the sacrificed clan member.
But because that direct descendant of the Helian Family had stabbed them in the back, wanting to dump both families and keep all the benefits to himself.
Now, those left behind wanted to find something that man had left behind.
Unfortunately, he was selfish and left nothing useful behind.
Madam Helian did not want Tan Chengbi to get involved in this matter and ordered him to leave Yinghua Country.
Anyone dragged into this affair could easily be doomed, hoping that Yun Ran would also leave soon.
"[Host, it seems that the Tan Family guy really considers you a confidant, telling you even the family secrets. So are you leaving now?]"
"Of course, I’m leaving. I don’t want to become a live target."
By evening, Gu Yuan had brought a stack of compensation documents from the Tan Family and the Helian Family to Yun Ran.
"Here, these are all for you."
Yun Ran didn’t take the documents to check them with the same excitement as before, instead she looked at Gu Yuan and asked, "How much longer do we have to stay here?"
"We need to finish dealing with the aftermath here, the current estimate is about half a month’s time."
"Alright, I got it~"
Saying this, Yun Ran put away the compensation she had received.
Perhaps because Yun Ran had exposed her injuries, those who had previously wanted to find clues from her finally shifted their attention away.
They now saw her as just a slightly capable person, but not very significant—just an unimportant Passerby A.
Yun Ran saw the opportunity to say she wanted to return to her country, and it was very easily approved; not a single person objected.

[Host, this is the first time I feel that you’re so unnoticeable, as if it makes no difference whether you’re here or not.]
"So, sometimes, you need to dare to expose your own weaknesses, in order to make others less wary of you."
When leaving Yinghua Country, Yun Ran finally got on the private jet she had longed for, and even received three privileges.
Now, Yun Ran finally felt at ease and happily boarded the plane.
Meanwhile, on a large cargo ship in Yinghua Country, the Water Dragon Dragon Spirit, who had successfully seized a body, was crammed with others in the smuggling hold of the ship, his face turning as dark as the bottom of a pot.
He never dreamed that after finally seizing a body, his life would actually start going backwards.
He was especially duped by that wicked woman Yun Ran; not only under a Symbiotic Contract, but also bound by a Prohibition, he couldn’t harm humans at will.
Not to mention causing storms and rains, even using magic had a time restriction.
What he found absolutely unacceptable was that he now even had to suffer from hunger!
At this moment, he truly regretted it; the human body was really too frustrating.
What infuriated him even more was that when he was tricked by Yun Ran into escaping, he had no money or identification on him, and directly became an undocumented person, unable to get enough food or warm clothing.
In recent days, due to troubles stirred up by the Tan Family and the Helian Family, many places had started inspections.
Those undocumented individuals who had committed offenses, seeing the situation turn unfavorable, naturally had to run; Yinghua Country was no longer a place in which they could stay.
He, mingling with the undocumented, had no idea how he ended up confusedly aboard this smuggling ship.
Infuriated to the point of liver pain, he huddled in a corner unwilling to budge.
But someone nearby started a conversation with him: "Young man, are you also smuggling back to the country?"
"Eh, you lad, why don’t you speak? If we happen to be from the same hometown, we might be able to support each other..."
Dragon Spirit didn’t want to talk; these days had driven him into a profound skepticism about dragon life.
However, the person talking to him instantly felt slighted, and afterward, their gaze towards him gradually hardened.
Who could blame them when the body Dragon Spirit had seized looked so lively and clear, resembling a down-and-out young master from a wealthy family.
Someone tried to reach out and touch his face, only to abruptly be stopped by the hand of a lean-looking young man.
"Courting death!"
The lean young man drew a knife from his waist and glared fiercely at the person who had just revealed his wicked intentions.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."
Quickly, the people who had crowded around Dragon Spirit backed off, and the area suddenly became much emptier.
The lean young man, looking at the individual continuing to wallow in despair, doubting life, was somewhat speechless; he took a burger out of his pocket and placed it in front of Dragon Spirit.
"Ah Long, eat something~"
Dragon Spirit had named himself Ah Long while being undocumented; hearing there was food, he finally looked up at the person next to him.
Despite being distressed and angry, there was no way he would starve; he took the burger and devoured it in just two or three bites.
A face that should have had an immortal’s grace was utterly spoiled by his morose and lifeless demeanor.
The lean young man patted his shoulder: "It’ll all pass, just let it go."
