Going against the will of heaven, summoning strange beasts, abandoning her daughter, she is addicted

The guards were sent flying, their bodies crashing heavily to the ground.

Knowing how terrifying Ruan Yu was, they scrambled to their feet and ran toward the Yuan family's house.

Ruan Yu looked at Yuan Shilei, who was already unconscious, and sighed softly.

She had promised not to interfere, but seeing Yuan Shilei being bullied like this, she couldn't help but take action.

Perhaps, she is trying to save her former self!

A quarter of an hour later.

"My lord?" Yuan Shilei slowly opened his eyes, tilted his head, and saw Ruan Yu sitting in the chair next to him.

He was so shocked that he rolled off the small bed in the cubicle and fell to the floor.

If his hand hadn't been on the ground, he would have rolled right to Ruan Yu's feet.

The weapon shop's cubicles were far too small.

"You saved me." After getting up, Yuan Shilei suddenly realized that all his injuries had been completely healed. He knew without a doubt that it was Ruan Yu's doing, and he was deeply moved.

"Thank you, sir!"

"But sir... as you've seen, I really have nothing to offer in return. How about... you take this weapons shop away?"

No, the weapon shop deed is still in Yuan Shijie's hands!

That damn thing!

"What would I do with a cold, impersonal shop?" Ruan Yu retorted.

Since they were already in charge, they might as well go all the way and bring the Yuan family under their control as well.

"Earth Spirit Orb, Water Spirit Orb, you two go to other continents and look for traces of the Gold Spirit Orb and Fire Spirit Orb. Notify me when you find them, and I will rush over immediately." Ruan Yu sent a wisp of her divine sense into the space and instructed the two spirit orbs.

She originally intended to go find it herself, but she was held back by the Yuan family's affairs and could only set off later.

It's a good idea to send the Earth Spirit Orb and Water Spirit Orb to scout ahead first. With their abilities, even if they encounter a powerful enemy, they can safely extricate themselves.

"What about me, Master?" Mu Lingzhu asked curiously, seeing that she didn't have any tasks.

"You should rest." Ruan Yu gave it a look that was hard to describe, then returned her consciousness to her body.

The Wood Spirit Orb's strength hasn't fully recovered, and it's not very bright. I'm afraid it might get kidnapped as soon as it goes out, and then I'll have to waste time rescuing it.

"Then, sir, you wouldn't... want me, would you?" After a long internal struggle, Yuan Shilei finally blushed and tore open his shirt.

Oh dear, I'm so shy!

Ruan Yu was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she was immediately filled with anger: "Why are you blushing like a teapot?"

She gave Yuan Shilei a sharp tap on the head without any hesitation.

The latter winced in pain and pitifully covered his head.

"Are you awake now?"

Yuan Shilei nodded repeatedly: "I'm sober now, I dare not talk nonsense anymore."

"Tell me about your situation in the Yuan family first."

"it is good."

After listening to Yuan Shilei's account, Ruan Yu only asked him one question: "Do you want to take over the Yuan family?"

"Take over the Yuan family?" Yuan Shilei's eyes widened immediately: "Sir, you mustn't! I only had a grudge against Yuan Shijie, but my father is innocent! Please, sir, don't kill him!"

"I don't have that much time." Ruan Yuke didn't have time to wait for Yuan Shilei to successfully succeed to the throne; she wanted Yuan Shilei to take control of the entire Yuan family now.

"You just need to answer me, do you want to or don't you want to?"

After making a firm decision, Yuan Shilei hesitated again: "I want to! But will the adults harm my father and my clansmen?"

"Do you think I'm a serial killer?" Ruan Yu looked at Yuan Shilei speechlessly. "I killed the Qian family because I had a grudge against them."

"Then why would the lord dare to use them?" Yuan Shilei asked, voicing his doubts.

“I extracted a wisp of their divine consciousness, and they dare not betray me.”

"But Qian Youcai betrayed you."

"I know, and I tacitly approved of it," Ruan Yu said calmly. "Without them making an example of someone, how could the rest of the Qian family members obediently listen?"

If she hadn't suppressed them, they would have been terrified the moment Qian Youcai and the others harbored thoughts of betrayal.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shilei's eyes filled with solemn respect!

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

"You're helping me, sir, surely for the sake of the Yuan family's business?" Yuan Shilei was a smart man; he got straight to the point and didn't beat around the bush.

"Well, once you take over the Yuan family, you can transfer all the shops there to my Ruan Family Trading Company. I will take 10% of the profits each month."

The Yuan family is different from the Qian family. The Qian family is her enemy, so she naturally won't let them get away with it.

Taking even 10% of the profits from the Yuan family would already be quite generous.

"Okay!" Upon hearing that he would only receive such a small share, Yuan Shilei immediately agreed.

He thought Ruan Yu would ask for an exorbitant profit, perhaps 50% or 60%! If that happened, he would refuse to comply even at the cost of his life!

Yuan Shilei had thought it over carefully. The Yuan family was no match for the Qian family now, and their business was a complete mess. If they didn't rely on the Qian family's... now Ruan's Trading Company's reputation, the Yuan family would likely go bankrupt in a few years!

Therefore, the only chance for the Yuan family to turn things around right now is to accept Ruan Yu's suggestion!

"But sir, how are we going to take over the Yuan family?" Yuan Shilei asked, frowning with a troubled expression.

He's penniless now, and just figuring out how to survive is a problem, let alone spending money to hire help.

We can't expect Ruan Yu to pay for this, can we?

"Let's try diplomacy first, then resort to force," Ruan Yu said. "Let's go, lead the way."

Yuan Shilei followed Ruan Yu out of the weapons shop, looking completely bewildered. "Where are we going?"

"The Yuan family."

"Oh oh."

"The door isn't closed?"

"I forgot, hehe."

Ruan Yu: "..." She began to doubt whether her choice was wrong.

The more Yuan Shilei looked at him, the more foolish he seemed. Could he really manage so many shops belonging to the Yuan family?

Yuan family.

Yuan Shijie was lying comfortably on his bed, counting a stack of house deeds and land deeds in his hand.

He had just spat on his finger when he heard a servant's panting voice outside: "Young Master, something terrible has happened! Young Master, something terrible has happened!"

"You're the one who's bad!" Yuan Shijie cursed under his breath, then pushed open the door and kicked the guard who came to report the news away.

"Tell me, what's wrong!"

"Young Master, Yuan Shilei... he... he was rescued!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shijie's eyes widened in shock: "Who the hell doesn't want to live? Didn't I tell everyone that no one is allowed to help him? He's asking for death!"

"Come on, let's go see who dares to go against me like this!" He put the items into his spatial ring.

They rushed off to find Yuan Shilei.

"Young Master, the one who saved Yuan Shilei was a woman. She wasn't from around here, and she was extremely beautiful—the most beautiful person I've ever seen!"

"Oh?" Yuan Shijie immediately became interested. "She's actually a beauty? Tell me, how does she compare to the beauties in my room?"

The guard raised his index finger and shook it seriously: "None of them are worth a single strand of that woman's hair!"
