The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.

After Ji Cheng brought the two young ladies to the Yun family's branch in Ningcheng, Yun Shurui rushed into her older brother's office like a rabbit let loose, arms outstretched and a bright smile on her face:

"Surprise!"

She froze on the spot, because besides Yun Xingzhou, there were two other men in the office.

"Xiao Rui?" Yun Xingzhou was the first to react. He stood up in surprise. "Why are you here?"

Yun Shurui lowered her arms and laughed awkwardly twice. "Xiaoling said she wanted to come to this resort in Ningcheng to soak in the hot springs, and it would also be a good opportunity for you to celebrate my birthday with me, so we came."

Yun Xingzhou then turned his attention to what was behind Yun Shurui. An Ling and Ji Cheng had walked over at a normal pace, a few steps slower than Yun Shurui, who had run over as soon as she got off the elevator.

"President Yun, it was Shu Rui who asked me to keep this from you, so you can't blame me." Ji Cheng preemptively spoke up to shift the blame.

How could Yun Xingzhou blame Ji Cheng for such a small matter? Besides, he was overjoyed that his sister had come. However, he was still quite surprised that An Ling would come along.

Although Yun Shurui had already told him that she and An Ling had made up, he really didn't expect that they would get along so well so quickly that they would travel together to celebrate their birthdays.

He knew how good Yun Shurui and An Ling used to be, and he also knew very well why they had a falling out.

He realized that Yun Shurui was just too proud and arrogant. She wanted to reconcile with An Ling but couldn't bring herself to do it. Now that he saw how happy Yun Shurui was after the two reconciled, Yun Xingzhou greeted An Ling with a smile.

“Xiaoling, thank you for coming with Shurui,” he then looked at Yun Shurui, “Xiaorui, you and Xiaoling go to the resort with Ji Cheng first. I have some things to take care of here. I’ll come find you when I’m done.”

Just as Yun Shurui was about to agree, the older of the two men behind Yun Xingzhou suddenly walked over with a smile and spoke to Yun Shurui:

"This must be Shu Rui. She's all grown up now, I almost didn't recognize her."

Seeing Yun Shurui's blank expression, a hint of displeasure flashed in the man's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

"Don't you recognize your uncle? He used to hold you when you were little. We're all family, how could you forget?"

Yun Xingzhou didn't seem to like this man very much, and the smile on his face faded noticeably.

“Xiao Rui was young at that time, and you, Uncle, were often in Ningcheng. After Aunt passed away, Xiao Rui never saw you again, so it’s normal that she doesn’t remember you.”

"Haha, that's true, after all, Xiao Rui was just a child back then. But in the future, your uncle will definitely visit you in Haicheng often. The family should keep in touch to avoid fading the relationship," the man said meaningfully. "It will save you, Xingzhou, from having to come all the way here to worry about things in Ningcheng. With your own family looking after things for you, what problems could possibly arise?"

[Uncle-in-law? What was Shu Rui's uncle-in-law's name again? Could he be one of those weird relatives too?]

Yun Xingzhou suddenly turned his head and looked at An Ling in surprise, somewhat confused. Had An Ling just spoken?

"Ahem," Yun Shurui gave Yun Xingzhou a wink, signaling him not to speak, and then naturally introduced the man to An Ling, "Xiao Ling, this is my uncle-in-law, Guo Wenxiang."

[Ah, so it's Shu Rui's deceased aunt's husband.]

Yun Shurui's aunt and parents died in an accident while inspecting business abroad.

Her aunt and uncle were childless by choice, so her uncle inherited all of her aunt's estate except for her shares.

He didn't inherit the shares because his aunt had already made a will leaving the shares to Yun Xingzhou and Yun Shurui, preventing Guo Wenxiang from benefiting. However, he remains part of the Yun family's management team, and he is the main manager in Ningcheng.

After Yun Xingzhou's incident, Guo Wenxiang was the first to jump out, trying to use his status as Yun Xingzhou's uncle to swindle Yun Xingzhou's shares and inheritance and then swallow the Yun family. However, because he was an outsider, he was met with collective opposition from other Yun family relatives with ulterior motives.

[Later, after Yun Shurui took power, he was still unwilling to accept his situation and wanted to introduce his son, Chen Tianbin, to her. Yun Shurui, of course, didn't approve, so he secretly drugged her, intending to force her into marriage. Fortunately, Yun Shurui sensed something was wrong, locked herself in her room, and called the police in time, thus escaping unscathed.]

Upon hearing this, Yun Xingzhou and Yun Shurui felt like killing someone. Just then, Guo Wenxiang pulled another young man in front of Yun Shurui.

"Shu Rui, this child is named Chen Tianbin. He's about two years older than you. You young people have common topics, so you can spend more time together and cultivate your relationship. Maybe we can even become relatives."

Chen Tianbin wasn't bad-looking, but he just looked listless, as if all his energy had been drained.

The way he looked at Yun Shurui was also very uncomfortable, giving off a lecherous feeling. He even glanced at An Ling with the same look several times.

An Ling couldn't help but frown; being looked at like that was really unpleasant.

With the intention of finding out what kind of person this was, she entered Chen Tianbin's name into the character lookup tool, only to find out that he wasn't even a character.

[That's a beast!]

Calling him a lazy, spoiled brat is too kind; he's even a rapist! He forced himself on a woman while she was drunk, and afterwards, when she tried to call the police, he beat her up.

He gave the girl's parents money to try and settle things, but those heartless parents actually took the money and locked their daughter in the house, preventing her from calling the police or contacting the outside world!

This isn't the first time Chen Tianbin has done something like this!

[Guo Wenxiang actually wants to introduce this kind of thing to Shu Rui? Is he out of his mind?!]

No wonder, it turns out Chen Tianbin is his biological son! He claimed to be childless by choice, but it was actually a compromise to marry his aunt from the Yun family. A few years after their marriage, he had a separate family. The woman he married after his aunt passed away was his former mistress. Chen Tianbin, ostensibly the son of Guo Wenxiang's second wife, is actually their son!

[That means the victim is still being held captive by her parents! We have to rescue her quickly; that damned Chen Tianbin didn't even remember her name, how am I supposed to investigate!]

An Ling was considering whether to have someone put a sack over Chen Tianbin's head and beat him up to get to the bottom of things, but the fact that she couldn't find the information in the character lookup tool meant that Chen Tianbin really didn't know. For Chen Tianbin, this was something that could be settled by paying money, and it wasn't worth him spending any more time remembering.

[We can start with the time and location. Let me see, it was the 26th of last month, and it happened at the Yun family's resort hotel. We should be able to find out by checking the surveillance footage and check-in information from that day.]

[How about we ask Shu Rui to talk to her brother? It would be faster to have the Yun family investigate in Ningcheng.]

[Furthermore, Guo Wenxiang has been transferring money from the Yun family's Ningcheng branch for the past few years. The longer this drags on, the greater the Yun family's losses will be. We need to remind the siblings.]

An Ling was already thinking of beating Chen Tianbin up, but Chen Tianbin kept scanning An Ling and Yun Shurui's faces with that lecherous look.

"You must be Little Rui and Little Ling, right? I'm a few years older than you, just call me Brother Tianbin. I know Ningcheng better than you do, so why don't I show you around from here?"
