The people of the same generation as Xin Fu, especially those with poor talent and even worse resources, watched Xin Fu’s departing figure.
Their eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred; they wished they were the ones climbing the high branches.
When Xin Fu arrived in Hai City, Ginsengfruit took the driver, Old Liu, to pick him up.
Upon reaching Ran Mansion, Xin Fu truly experienced the tangible aspect of his good fortune.
Yun Ran was dressed in casual clothes, sitting on a lounge chair in the small garden, sunbathing.
From a distance, it was a scene full of vibrancy and vitality.
Xin Fu’s feeling wasn’t wrong; however, he didn’t realize that the place was brimming with life force mainly because Yun Ran had set up a life force formation in Ran Mansion.
This was a hint she had gotten from her previous visits to the Wang Family Mansion and the Luo Family.
Living in a place full of vitality not only promotes health and longevity but also brings happiness.
Xin Fu immediately composed himself and followed behind Ginsengfruit, even though Ginsengfruit was just a small figure, Xin Fu dared not overstep any boundaries.
"Lady Yun."
Nowadays, at Ran Mansion, forget about a person entering; even a flying bird or an ant would be within Yun Ran’s control.
Hearing the sound, Yun Ran wasn’t the least bit surprised and slowly opened her eyes.
"You’re quite fast."
When Yun Ran’s gaze fell on Xin Fu’s face, her eyes immediately showed a hint of understanding: "It seems you’ve been having a hard time recently."
Back then, she noticed a tribulation on Xin Fu, a tribulation coming from his dearest person, so she sent Xin Fu back for a while.
Unexpectedly, the tribulation manifested so soon.
Xin Fu wasn’t stupid; hearing Yun Ran’s words, his eyes moved slightly: "Did Lady Yun foresee something?"
Since Yun Ran planned to use Xin Fu well, some hidden dangers had to be resolved in advance.
Xin Fu asked, and Yun Ran didn’t intend to hide it.
"I saw that you have a tribulation in your future, although not as severe as a Life and Death Tribulation, it could still lead to ruin and disgrace, worse than death.
The tribulation lies on someone closest to you; you know, once you enter the Xuan Sect, resolving tribulations is much more troublesome than for ordinary people.
I could only let you face the tribulation in advance, hoping to reduce its impact on you, considering that you’d be working for me in the future."
At this moment, Xin Fu finally realized everything.
When he had fame without any achievements, the apparent benefits had to be let go.
With the balance disrupted, those close to him indeed could tolerate no more...
If back then, Lady Yun hadn’t sent him back early, he might never have the chance to know what it means to endure hardships together easily, but to share wealth is harder.
Perhaps, to others, Xin Fu seemed like a person who would abandon them after achieving success to enjoy his life, so they would desperately try to grab and take from him.
In the future, this resentment and suspicion would deepen step by step until it became an irrevocable cause and effect.
At that time, he might still be thinking about how to elevate those close to him.
Unaware, they had already planned how to ruin his reputation, making life worse than death for him.
Thinking about this, Xin Fu only felt the blood in his veins reverse flow, a wave of unspeakable sorrow sweeping through the depths of his heart.
After a long while, Xin Fu finally bowed deeply to Yun Ran: "Xin Fu thanks you, Miss, for your grace of salvation."
Previously, Xin Fu still called Yun Ran Lady Yun, but now he directly called her Miss, making it clear he intended to acknowledge Yun Ran as his master.
Recognizing a master is different from being a follower.
"Hmm."
Yun Ran graciously accepted the bow, after all, she was deserving of it.
Then she looked at Ginsengfruit: "Take him to rest for a while, and handle the remaining matters through discussion."
Xin Fu had obviously come to work under Ginsengfruit first.
Gu Yuan had already arranged most of the matters, leaving some details for them to handle.
As Xin Fu left with Ginsengfruit, Yun Ran closed her eyes again, beginning to enjoy this rare peaceful moment.
Early the next morning, Yun Ran had Old Liu drive her to the Qingfeng Temple in the newly built city.
Ginsengfruit stayed at Ran Mansion with Xin Fu and the assistant sent by Yun Jinyang to continue dealing with miscellaneous affairs.
Initially, the assistant sent by Yun Jinyang thought that the little lord Ginsengfruit was there to keep an eye on them.
But once the workload truly began, he realized that this little lord shouldn’t be underestimated, even more capable than departmental managers at the company.
The newcomer, a young man named Xin Fu, was also quite skilled.
The assistant was relieved significantly, for while the tasks were many and varied, he was only concerned about potentially troublesome clients.
The location of Qingfeng Temple was near a nature reserve, with hardly any human population, and even tourists used a different pre-planned route.
Seeing the actual situation here, Yun Ran was indeed quite satisfied.
The Wang Family initially bought this place to build a vacation villa for themselves, but in the end, it was Yun Ran who benefited.
Driver Old Liu knew of Yun Ran’s special status, but seeing such a large Qingfeng Temple built here only elevated his perception of her standing.
"Miss, we have arrived."
Yun Ran got out of the car, the roads around were already leveled and repaired.
As they drove up from the foot of the mountain, there was a sign indicating a private area, ensuring no one would accidentally enter.
"You can wait for me here."
Old Liu wasn’t allowed inside Qingfeng Temple, but he had no complaints, dutifully parking the car to the side to wait.
The logistics personnel had long completed the finishing touches and withdrawn, feeling assured with the Little Paperman guarding the place.
Noticing Yun Ran’s arrival, the Little Paperman inside promptly flew out.
"Master, you finally came~"
"Master, it’s so beautifully built here~"
"Master, we all put in effort, not slacking off at all~"
...
The chirping sound of the Little Paperman didn’t annoy Yun Ran; instead, she patiently listened to everything they had to say.
Yun Ran smiled and nodded, then began to explore, inspecting the place.
Despite the supervision by the Little Paperman, Gu Yuan’s prior checks, and trustworthy logistics personnel,
Yun Ran still wanted to personally inspect the place as Qingfeng Temple couldn’t have any potential weaknesses laid by others.
Yun Ran summoned the Peach Wood Sword and the Heavenly Thunder Order.
"Go!"
Upon Yun Ran’s command, the Peach Wood Sword and Heavenly Thunder Order took off like exuberant little animals, quickly disappearing out of sight.
