Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling

The principal immediately stopped trying to persuade Yun Ran and began to invite her to eat.

After eating and drinking, as Yun Ran was preparing to leave, Principal Du suddenly spoke, "I heard you sell peace charms. Can I buy a few?"

Special Assistant Yan had been with Principal Du for many years and knew very well that he was a man who was strict with himself and never had any financial dealings with students or their parents.

This time, not only did he offer Yun Ran protection, but he also wanted to buy something from her, which made Special Assistant Yan look at Yun Ran in a different light.

Yun Ran stopped in her tracks, glanced at Principal Du, and then shook her head, "Your future will be smooth and unobstructed; you don't need peace charms."

After a pause, she added, "Your two sons don't need them either."

Principal Du had his own connections and already knew there was something hidden behind his two sons being swapped out by their grandmother.

Coupled with the previous events at the Du Residence, he was worried that the people behind it would not easily let his two children go.

As parents, they always hope their children can be smooth and successful.

Hearing Yun Ran's refusal, Principal Du was a little puzzled. Even if the peace charms were unnecessary, he could afford them, so buying them wouldn't hurt, right?

While they were talking, Special Assistant Yan and Old Liu, with great tact, left the private room first.

Yun Ran, naturally without any scruples, spoke directly, "Your family has already been brought into the range of protection. Those people will not appear around you.

Many things are not better in large quantities. Du Xi and Du Lin have drawn all this trouble because their Qi Fortune was too strong..."

The phrase "extreme prosperity forebodes decline" appeared in Principal Du's mind, and he immediately understood why Yun Ran said there was no need to buy peace charms.

"I understand. Thank you, Yun Ran, for enlightening me."

As Yun Ran returned to the classroom, she saw an envelope placed on her desk.

One of the classmates who previously ignored her looked over and then, pretending to pass by her, whispered, "Don't go!"

Feeling puzzled, Yun Ran opened the envelope, only to find it was a challenge letter inviting her to the school's martial arts field.

Xinghua School was very wealthy and offered all kinds of extracurricular interest classes, with several buildings specifically for these activities.

The original Yun Ran was considered an "odd person" at school, blending into the background, with very few people paying her any attention.

Now that she had arrived, someone was eager to challenge her, which was quite interesting.

Since she had nothing else going on, she decided to check it out, considering it a walk.

She casually stuffed the letter into her pocket and stepped out toward the martial arts field, leaving the rare kind-hearted person who advised her not to go quite frustrated.

"Really, what's she thinking? Everyone told her not to go, but she's still eager to get herself beaten."

"I've heard she's pretty strange, doesn't understand human speech. I didn't think it was true."

"Should we follow and take a look? I mean, we're in the same class after all. Even if we can't help, at least we can call the school doctor for her if needed."

…

The few who stayed behind exchanged glances, then also stepped forward to follow her.

After walking for about ten minutes, they finally arrived at the extracurricular building. The martial arts field was quite large. Usually, there weren't many people here, but today, for some reason, it was exceptionally crowded.

The people waiting outside saw Yun Ran arrive.

They quickly whispered to those around them. Although Yun Ran couldn't hear what they were saying, she could feel their evasive glances were indeed because of her.

As Yun Ran approached, the people gathered to watch the excitement automatically parted to make a path for her.

"Hey, it's her. Don't know how she managed to offend the seniors. She's definitely going to get a lesson."

"What do you know? Even among wealthy families, there are different levels. She offended Senior Sister Si, and the Si Family is the richest in Hai City. She's done for!"

"It's really miserable. The last person who offended Senior Sister Si had their family bankrupted."

…

Yun Ran heard this and was a little confused. The Si Family? She had been in this small world for a while and had never met anyone from the Si Family. How could she have offended them?

The martial arts field was vast, and when Yun Ran entered, she saw about a dozen people who looked like they could fight, staring at her fiercely.

In the center of these people, a girl with a poised and cold demeanor sat with her legs crossed.

With a "smack," a pair of boxing gloves was thrown in front of Yun Ran.

The bleachers at the martial arts field were also filled with many people, and Yun Ran immediately spotted Meng Yue sitting in the front row.

Meng Yue was restless at the moment. She quickly turned her head to the side when she noticed Yun Ran looking over.

"I heard you're pretty good at fighting."

Si Man's eyes carried a playful condescension, a look not unfamiliar in the original Yun Ran's memories.

Yun Ran, however, was not impressed by this look. With her hands in her pockets, she casually glanced at Si Man.

She laughed lightly and directly tore down the other person's façade, "Heard? Heard from whom? I didn't expect the fifth young lady of the Si Family to be so hypocritical. Why don't you just say you want to get someone to openly teach me a lesson instead of all these theatrics?"

As she spoke, she took the challenge letter from her pocket, tore it into pieces, and scattered them casually.

Amid the incredulous gazes of others, Yun Ran's voice suddenly rose, "In a challenge, there must be rules. Don't make it so petty!

I, Yun Ran, challenge you with a five-million-dollar wager. It doesn't matter who you send out or how many. If you win, the five million is yours.

But if you lose, not only do you have to hand over five million to me, but you also must publicly declare on Xinghua's campus network that you, Si Man, are defeated by me, Yun Ran! Do you dare?"

Ginsengfruit watching Yun Ran's over-the-top bravado felt slightly embarrassed for her.

[Host, aren't you overdoing it with the bravado? These people have all participated in national martial arts competitions and even won awards.

Si Man previously used the challenge as a cover to thrash many people, leaving them no choice but to admit their mistakes in the end.]

"Your system brain really isn't functioning well. You only see me showing off but don't see that I'm deliberately provoking her?

Someone with a character as proud and strong as hers cannot bear to be humiliated, especially not in front of so many people.

What I want, from the very beginning, is just the five-million-dollar wager. I'm not the doormat the original host was.

I've been set up, so how could I not make them bleed a little? I don't want any verbal apologies; I only like real cash."

Ginsengfruit couldn't help but feel a bit sympathetic toward the group opposite. It could already foresee their humiliating defeat.
