Chapter 205
“What post?” Ying Yuexuan froze again, “I haven’t even been on the internet lately, and I don’t like it.”
Zhong Zhiyan turned around, tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes.
Her eyes were mocking and sarcastic: “Lin Xi is not just my senior brother, he is also your senior brother, it’s too easy for you to know.”
Because she and Ying Yuexuan were the same age and in the same grade, when they were young, they studied everything together.
At the beginning, their teacher would even praise Ying Yuexuan for her aura and talent.
But later on, no matter what she did, Ying Yuexuan’s grades were not as good as hers.
She was always being suppressed by her.
“Senior Brother Lin Xi?” Ying Yuexuan wrinkled her brows, “I haven’t seen him since I came back, what exactly are you trying to say?”
“Ying Yuexuan, you’re amazing, I’m trying to understand now.” Zhong Zhiyan smiled, “You know I am determined to win the first place, so no matter what I do, I will always come second.”
“You are so calculating and calculating, no one is as heavy-minded as you.”
“Zhong Zhiwei, you’ve gone too far.” Hearing these words, Ying Yuexuan slowly gathered her emotions and her voice also cooled down, “If I had the ability to win the first place, would I give it to you? Don’t you know how strict my mother was with me?”
“When I was a kid, she wouldn’t even let me eat dinner if I came second, why would I put myself through that?”
“That’s why I said you’re so smart.” Zhong Zhiyan laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes, “No one else can see through you, in fact, you’re the one hiding the most.”
“Zhong Zhiyan, you are really unreasonable.” Ying Yuexuan was really angry, “So that’s how you think of me, I thought there might be a misunderstanding between you and my sister’s matter.”
“Now it seems that you are really such a person.”
“Ying Yuexuan, you are very powerful.” Zhong Zhiyan wasn’t angry and was still smiling, “It’s just a pity that your petty thoughts are useless in front of absolute strength.”
“Ying Zigui is a thousand times stronger than you, your charity towards her is simply a joke.”
After saying this, Zhong Zhiyan stopped looking at Ying Yuexuan and ran away from the school building.
Ying Yuexuan didn’t even want to say a word to Zhong Zhiyan, she took the cup and went into the cla*sroom.
Everyone in the cla*s noticed that she was not in the right mood.
The two of them were arguing, and many students heard them.
Some people spoke out to comfort her, “Yuexuan, don’t be angry, Zhong Zhiyan has broken the pot, don’t take anything she says seriously.”
Others said, “That’s right, she also speculated about Ying Zidian at that time, we were really cheated.”
Ying Yuexuan returned to her seat and swallowed slowly: “It’s because I don’t want to be angry, I can’t help it.”
She picked up her pen, thought about it, put it down again and sighed.
She did want to send Ying Zidian study materials, but she hadn’t seen her once.
When the time came, she could ask Ying Tianru to ask her out and they could have a good chat.
She hadn’t really apologised yet.
** The afternoon was bright and sunny.
In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear.
A private plane takes off from the airport in Shanghai.
Apart from the steward and the pilot, there were only two people on this plane.
The interior of the plane was luxurious, not much different from a hotel suite.
There was a living room, a dining room, a separate toilet, and even a bathroom and kitchen.
Fu Yunshen raised his hand and pressed a button on the side.
The two soft chairs in the middle turned and became a bed.
Ying sat down on the sofa, picked up a gla*s of juice and tilted his head sideways, “You haven’t said where you’re going.”
“A physical trading point of the Hidden Alliance Society.” Fu Yunshen raised his eyes, faint, “There are quite a few novelties, thought I’d show them to you, but it’s quite dangerous, follow me well when the time comes.”
Hearing these words, Ying Ziji was silent for a few seconds.
She opened her phone, glanced at the message 10 had sent her, pressed her head and sighed lightly.
She was knowing that there was a tiger on the mountain, but she was walking towards it.
Although she was no longer planning to retire, she hadn’t really wanted to see them that early.
Her divine calculation ability and force value were not back to a tenth of their peak right now, so for certain things, it would be much less troublesome to avoid them if she could.
Forget it.
They wouldn’t recognise her.
In the 16th century, the Internet did not exist and the headquarters of the Hidden Alliance was in a village on the other side of the O Continent.
It was very inconspicuous.
The term “hunter” had been around since that time.
Hunters, also known as hunters, hunted for many things.
At that time, the Ancient Order of the O Continent hired a number of hunters to hunt all the magicians and warlocks.
This was a great event that has gone down in history.
It was called the “Witch Hunt”, or the “Witch Trials”.
But in fact they were not witches, nor did they have any magic as written in the books, they just had a little bit of power beyond that of ordinary people.
After the arrest of the magicians and warlocks, the number of true soothsayers became fewer and fewer, to the point of exhaustion.
This was the last prophecy she left behind on the O Continent.
With this kind of prophecy, the outcome is set and cannot be changed.
After joining the Hidden Alliance Society, the Hidden Alliance Society will have a comprehensive a*sessment of the strength of these hunters and thus rank them.
The top ten of each ranking are all fractured existences in terms of strength.
Only in the past there was no such thing as the Gun God Ranking, after all, guns hadn’t even been invented at that time.
With the development of technology over the centuries, the rankings have become more and more numerous.
With the help of the internet, the Hidden Alliance was also able to expand further.
Ying checked the number of users in the hidden section of the nok forum and it was a whopping 180,000!
Of course, compared to the 7 billion people on Earth, this was nothing.
But members who joined the Hidden Alliance were bound to have come into contact with some of the deep secrets of this world.
Including the sunken site of the ancient continent of Atlantis, and again including the fact that alchemy really exists.
These are secrets that are covered up with great force and will not be revealed to ordinary people.
And with 180,000 people, who knows how long they can be kept?
Ying Zigui’s eyes were narrowed in contemplation.
She actually didn’t know why 10 would open a forum for members of the Hidden Alliance Society.
It was logical that the more people knew about these secrets, the more bad things would happen.
As one of the founders of the Hidden Alliance Society and one of the people who kept the world’s secrets, 10 would not fail to understand this.
“Yao, a five-hour trip.” Fu Yunshen came over and pointed to the bed.
He took out his eye mask and earplugs and handed them to him.
The voice was low, slow and strong, and the tone was the usual gentle one: “Rest first, and call you when you arrive.”
**
It had been a few days and the storm hadn’t pa*sed.
Zhong Zhiyan didn’t dare to go to school at all.
She was afraid of hearing those words and seeing the students pointing at her.
“Mom, I really didn’t know things would turn out like this.” Zhong Zhiyan covered her face with her hands and cried, “I really just wanted to help our family.”
It was just that she was in too much of a hurry, she should have waited.
“Both matters have gone too far, and it’s really your fault.” Madam Zhong frowned tightly, “But we still have room for a roundabout way out.”
Zhong Zhiyan sobbed in a small voice, “How can we be circuitous? Mum, you don’t know what they say about me at school, I really can’t take it anymore, I’m going to break down, I want to quit school.”
“Quit school?” Mrs. Zhong’s voice sank, “If you drop out of school, only then will there really be nothing left to do.”
“But I ……” Zhong Zhiyan remembered the way her cla*smates looked at her and broke down and started crying again, “They all know what I’ve done, how can I stay?”
“Just like your grandfather said, let’s go to First Light Media first, find their designer to apologize and beg for forgiveness.” Mrs Zhong said calmly, “You’re young, they can’t always be too aggressive, as for the art festival which thing-”
She looked a little more contemptuous: “This adopted daughter has left the Ying family, she doesn’t even have a back-up, what can she do?”
Zhong Zhiyan froze: “Mom, you are going to ……”
“You wait by the side.” Mrs. Zhong waved her hand, “This matter, I will solve it, give me her phone number.”
Zhong Zhiyan pursed her lips, pressed the call log on the landline and pulled up Ying Zigui’s mobile number.
Mrs. Zhong called it up.
Ten seconds later, the call was answered.
“Ying Ziyi, this is Zhong Zhiyan’s mother.” Mrs. Zhong got straight to the point, “The incident at the art festival was a misunderstanding, do you understand?”
There, Ying Zidian had just arrived at her destination.
When she saw that it was the landline of the Zhong family’s old house, she answered it.
When she heard this, she looked indifferent and her voice was cool: “If you’re sick, go and treat it.”
After saying that, she was about to press off the phone.
Mrs. Zhong did not expect the girl to be so insensitive, and she lost her patience.
An orphan girl, and she’s still throwing her face around?
Does she think that because she can draw and write, she doesn’t know how much she has?
“You have a father from the countryside, don’t you?” Mrs. Zhong suddenly smiled, towering and threatening, “Seems like there’s a younger brother? I heard that your brother is still sick?”
Chapter 206
She said this because Mrs. Zhong had checked out Ying Zidian very clearly.
She is a country girl from Qing Shui County and has no one to turn to in Shanghai.
She had the Ying family as her backer, but now that she has left them, what else can she do?
Yes, there is the Chinese Calligraphy Artists’ a*sociation.
But can the Chinese Calligraphers’ a*sociation still protect Ying Zidian’s countryman father and brother?
She had to think about touching Ying Zidian, but she couldn’t touch two peasants?
Mrs. Zhong believed that Ying Zidian would be very sensible.
“Good.”
However, the girl’s voice was calm, even with a low laugh, and her tone didn’t even waver halfway, it was ice-cold: “You can try.”
Mrs. Zhong wrinkled her eyebrows in displeasure: “Ying Zidian, I gave you a chance, you’d better not be so…”
There was a beeping sound from the phone, the call had been hung up.
Mrs. Zhong took a deep breath and laughed coldly: “Well, well, young people nowadays really have a heart higher than the sky and a lot of guts, they’ve come to the big city and they’ve already forgotten
“Mom, you don’t ……” Zhong Zhiyan’s brain was still a bit confused, “Ying Zigui she actually ……”
“Don’t what don’t.” Mrs. Zhong put down the receiver, “She’s deliberately trying to step on you, otherwise how else would she expose the art festival at this time?”
Zhong Zhiyan’s lips twitched, wanting to say that she was sure it was definitely Ying Yuexuan who had posted.
But she knew that no one would believe her even if she said it.
“Since she is so insensitive, then don’t blame me for being ungracious.” Mrs. Zhong made another call, I don’t know who it was to, “Hey, check where Wen Fengmian and Wen Huilan, the father and son, live.”
“Let me know when you find out, I’ll have someone put them under control.”
Zhong Zhiyan looked dazed and did not dare to contradict Madam Zhong.
“Alright, now let’s go over to First Light Media.” Mrs. Zhong stood up and warned again, “You must not contradict their designer and apologise for being low, understand?”
Zhong Zhiyan nodded woodenly.
But before Mrs. Zhong could gather her things and leave, the door of the villa opened.
It was Master Zhong who came back, and Zhong’s housekeeper who was following him.
The two had only just returned from the company.
The matter of Zhong Zhiyan’s plagiarism had also had a certain impact on the Zhong Group, especially as the Zhong Group did also have a not insignificant connection with the design world.
After all, she is also the first lady of the Zhong Group.
But the good thing is that the Zhong Group has always been diligent in doing business, and most of the netizens have not implicated the two together.
But a small percentage is enough to make the company’s shareholders anxious.
For, the shareholders were all very unhappy with Zhong Zhiwei.
Elder Zhong didn’t look at Zhong Zhiyan, he looked away from him.
“Eldest Miss, this is your pa*sport.” Zhong Butler walked up and took out a book, “The plane ticket is at the end of this week, there’s enough time in it for you to go and apologise to the public.”
Zhong Zhiyan’s body shuddered, incredulous, “Grandpa?”
She took the plane ticket and her fingers trembled even as she saw that the destination was a small country north of o continent.
“Gramps!” Mrs. Zhong’s expression changed too, “Why are you sending her out of the country?”
It sounded like a good thing, but for these gentry, it was called exile.
It was a choice that was made only when the outcome was so bad.
“Eldest Miss, you have gone too far, the old man has always been fair and has no way to protect you.” Housekeeper Zhong ignored Madam Zhong, “This is the last thing the old master can give you, leave the country and make a new life.”
“Until you turn eighteen, there will be your guardian over there who will keep you safe and clothed, fed and housed, when you become an adult, you will have to fend for yourself in everything.”
“The old man was already starting his own business when he was your age.”
Zhong Zhiyan’s hand trembled as tears flowed down her face again.
She had been the princess of her family since she was a child and had never suffered anything.
To let her live alone in a foreign country was simply torture.
“No!” Madam Zhong couldn’t accept it, “I won’t send Evening out of the country!”
“Madam, don’t be in a hurry.” Butler Zhong took out another document, “This is for you.”
“What is it?” Madam Zhong took it and took a look, and her pupils contracted violently.
It was a divorce agreement.
She turned to the last page and saw that there was already a signature on it.
Zhong Haiyan.
Housekeeper Zhong thoughtfully pointed to another piece of paper, “This is what Haiyan wants to say to you.”
Seeing that piece of paper, Madam Zhong’s pupils shrank again.
It was to the effect that she had taught Zhong Zhiyan badly and Zhong Haiyan was so disappointed that he wanted to divorce her.
This was to expel her from the Zhong family.
Zhong Zhiyan was Master Zhong’s granddaughter, but she had nothing to do with the Zhong family by blood.
Mrs. Zhong did not expect things to turn out like this and could not even stand up.
But a pen was forced into her hand.
“Sign it, madam.”
Knowing that there was nothing she could do if she fought it any further, Madam Zhong had to sign her name.
Housekeeper Zhong put the divorce agreement away, “Haiyan will be back in a few days, and you will be notified to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau then.”
At this time, Master Zhong finally spoke, “Housekeeper, send it out.”
Instead of being sent out, he should have been driven out.
Along with Mrs. Zhong’s daily necessities and other things for so many years, all of them were thrown out.
Master Zhong went upstairs.
Housekeeper Zhong stopped and still said one more thing: “Eldest Miss, take care of yourself.”
**
At this time, there was an island five time zones away from China.
Located in the Pacific Ocean, this island is surrounded by sea on all sides and covers an area large enough to rival a city with a population of five million.
However, on the world map, the exact location of this island could not be found.
It is one of the strongholds of the Hidden Alliance.
The island has a dedicated airfield and also a port.
Ying was still on the plane, and she crouched down slightly, looking at the computer.
On the computer were two pictures, with an unknown quadrilateral piece of machinery attached to the side.
Something similar to a printer.
She then watched as the machinery ran after Fu Yunshen pressed a few keys.
A few minutes later, two masks as thin as cicada wings appeared.
They were just like the pictures on the screen.
Fu Yunshen picked up one of them and handed it to her.
Ying Ziji took it and nodded: “So those disguisers on the rankings are actually using high technology?”
“Not necessarily.” Fu Yunshen laughed lightly, “There are others too, that are really good, and in a hurry, so I took this one and used it.”
Ying Zigui put this mask on.
Not only did she find that it did not cause any damage to her skin, but it fitted perfectly.
In the mirror, another face also appeared, and it was completely impossible to tell what the original face was.
She pondered.
It seemed that she was indeed an old fashioned person, she disguised herself, or was it makeup.
When the two of them got off the plane, someone immediately rushed over.
“Young master, you’ve finally arrived.” It was a young man, walking quickly, “Something has happened, you have to go and take care of it.”
Fu Yun Shen’s expression gave a pause as he gave a sideways glance
“You go.” Ying put his visor back on, “I’m fine.”
“Just the central area, it’s too chaotic elsewhere, don’t go there yet.” Fu Yunshen finished and turned his head, “In my absence, her orders are my orders.”
The young man looked aghast and quickly bowed his head, “Yes!”
But Fu Yunshen didn’t leave straight away, he first sent Ying Zidian to the central area.
The central area of the Hidden Alliance was not too different from the city centre of a big city, with shopping malls and entertainment facilities.
“Hello, Miss Ying, my name is Yunshan.” The young man was respectful, “I will be responsible for your safety on this journey.”
At the same time, Yun Shan was quietly sizing up the girl.
Doubt grew in his heart.
He knew, of course, that Fu Yunshen and Ying Zidian were both disguised.
But he couldn’t really see anything special about her.
If Fu Yunshen had said that, there must be something special about her.
“You’re welcome.” Ying Zigui’s jaw lifted slightly, “I’ll go and buy some food.”
Yunshan was still a little confused.
Then within the next ten minutes, he watched the girl buy milk tea and desserts, leisurely as if she was actually shopping.
Yun Shan thought to himself, “Isn’t this little girl a bit big-hearted?
Although it was said that the central district was the most stable, it wasn’t like nothing would happen.
In case ……
It was only when this thought came to him that a loud cacophony suddenly rang in his ears.
In front of him, a group of a dozen people, were walking this way.
It didn’t matter who the people in front of them were, they all kicked straight through.
“It’s Dark Gold’s people.” Yun Shan’s expression changed slightly as he looked over, “They dare to cause trouble in the central district.”
He quickly said, “Miss Ying, let’s go this way.”
Ying Ziyi had no intention of getting into an argument with the people here, so she nodded and turned around.
But she was a step too late.
The group had already come over.
One of the tall young men didn’t even look at them, he waved his hand out and knocked all the milk tea and desserts out of the girl’s hands onto the floor.
Ying Ziji stopped in her tracks.
She took a look at the mess on the floor.
Two seconds later, raised her head.
