Chapter 290: Chapter 289: It’s Really Nice to Be Rich (Second Update)
In the following time, their caravan encountered no further trouble until daybreak.
Dr. Yu, who had dozed off for a while, woke up on time after a while.
The first thing he did was to pick up the phone and call Principal Du.
Principal Du, who was having breakfast, curiously answered the call from his old friend.
An urgent voice came through the phone: "How did you know I was in danger and sent someone to protect me?"
Principal Du was even more confused. He had been so busy that he had even neglected his two sons, let alone knowing anything about Dr. Yu’s situation.
But since the other party said so, something must have happened, and it was resolved, and it was related to him.
"What happened?"
Dr. Yu briefly explained what had happened, and then continued, "These Xuan Sect methods are much more powerful than those I’ve heard of before. When did you meet such people?"
As for other matters, Principal Du might have listed several suspects.
But for this type of thing, there was no need to guess. There was only one answer, and that was Yun Ran.
However, how did Yun Ran know that Dr. Yu was in trouble? And why did she send two Little Papermen to protect him?
Principal Du had countless questions in his mind, but he definitely wouldn’t reveal these to Dr. Yu.
"It’s Yun Ran, the child I told you before, the one I asked for your help with a special admission quota, who is also the lifesaver of my two sons."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Yu understood; the other party might truly be a master.
Even just for the special admission quota, he owed this favor.
"I see, I was saying, what kind of person could make you plan years in advance to pave the way for her. I’ll arrange a few more quotas and let her choose where she wants to go."
Previously, Dr. Yu agreed only because of his old friend and the fact that securing a quota a few years in advance wasn’t difficult.
But now, not only did he agree, but he wanted to make it impressive.
After hanging up the phone, Dr. Yu tried calling into the air, "Are you still here?"
The Little Paperman stuck under the seat was digesting the Black Fog Bead it had consumed earlier.
Hearing Dr. Yu calling them, after some thought, they flew out from underneath the seat.
The cameras couldn’t capture them; at the moment, the bodyguard sitting in the driver’s seat only saw Dr. Yu talking to the air in the back of the car.
This made him somewhat want to turn his head to see if he could spot the two Little Papermen.
The Little Paperman flew out neatly folding their hands, "Is there anything you need?"
When Yun Ran made these Little Papermen, she designed them to be cute. Dr. Yu and the others, seeing the Little Paperman floating mid-air,
While it was quite a scary and strange sight, they felt absolutely no fear due to their cute appearance and soft, adorable voices.
Dr. Yu’s student, seeing the Little Paperman, had bright, gleaming eyes, and the tension in her mind relaxed quite a bit.
"How long will you stay?"
Considering the previous ambush and Sun Qian’s betrayal, Dr. Yu felt they would definitely face more dangers.
While the bodyguards were undoubtedly capable, some methods were unavoidable. If these two Little Papermen continued to protect them, then...
Not only Dr. Yu and his student thought this way, the bodyguards who had seen the Little Papermen before thought the same.
Having these two palm-sized Little Papermen around felt very secure.
Had he not known about Yun Ran’s identity, Dr. Yu might not have ’pushed his luck’.
But now, he felt that Yun Ran was very reliable, and he didn’t hesitate to ask.
"The master asked us to protect you, we won’t leave unless the master recalls us."
Getting the answer he wanted, Dr. Yu immediately showed a smile; he had guessed correctly.
"I will properly thank your master later. You don’t need to hide anymore, just stay by my side."
Not having to hide under the seat was of course the best option, and the Little Paperman quickly nodded in agreement.
Following the arrangement where one compiled Little Paperman was earning a salary for Yun Ran every month, two more Little Papermen were now contributing to her ’future’.
Yun Ran, who got up early in the morning, was full of grogginess, especially when she saw the bicycle parked beside her, her resentment was even heavier than a ghost.
"Videos are deceptive, watching people ride bicycles through this small loop freely and vigorously, must be staged!!!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw someone filming a video with a person cycling upfront and a four-wheeled vehicle following behind.
Yun Ran: ...
Haha, why is there no trust between people?
After finishing her meal, Yun Ran sold the bicycle right away. Unable to handle even a bit of hardship, she eventually rented a luxury RV and a local driver at a high price.
The driver drove at the speed Yun Ran wanted, very slowly.
Sitting in the car, drinking tea while looking at the scenery, Yun Ran finally nodded in satisfaction, "This is the life I should be living."
Ginsengfruit stuffed food into his mouth while saying, "Host, it’s really good to have money."
Having come to a very famous local scenic spot, Yun Ran naturally wanted to have some fun since she was already there.
The driver enthusiastically found acquaintances to guide Yun Ran, enjoying super VIP treatment, not having to wait for anything.
"Is that place off-limits?"
The guide smiled and looked in the direction Yun Ran was pointing.
Seeing how generous Ms. Yun was with money, he could take her to places others couldn’t go.
Upon clearly seeing the location, the guide’s face suddenly changed.
If it were someone else, he would probably have turned away, perhaps even cursing: Wanting to go everywhere, why not try going to heaven!
Thinking of the thick stack of money Yun Ran had given, his attitude naturally changed.
The guide quickly motioned for Yun Ran to speak softly, "Ms. Yun, you are my distinguished VIP client, personally brought here by Brother Liu. I’ll give you some inside information.
Within a hundred miles, I can take you anywhere you want, even those protected areas under prohibition; I have connections.
But the place you just pointed to is off-limits. The people of that village never interact with outsiders, and those who have tried to enter their village... have all died..."
The guide’s face was very tense, clearly afraid that a rich young lady like Yun Ran would insist on going to such dangerous places.
Several reckless wealthy heirs had gone there before and ended up missing without a trace.
The most mysterious part was that the village could be seen but no one could find a road leading into it; those who tried to venture or force their way in all died on the way.
