I’ll give you some seeds to replant later, ones that repel insects. And over there... in the front...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After touring around, Yun Ran was finally satisfied with the setup. With only minor modifications, the place turned into an excellent residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the main building, Old Liu had already prepared a meal that looked no different from a restaurant’s fare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, these are all your favorite dishes. I’ve learned from the family chef. Please have a taste.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran nodded and tasted each dish. The flavors were truly not bad, almost identical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve all worked hard during this time.

Please wait a moment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servants soon brought in tea and exited along with Old Liu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This spot was originally designed by Yun Ran for appreciating the view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three visitors examined the exquisite objects and rare flowers casually placed there, items even noble family offspring would cherish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One couldn’t help but comment, \"Just a rich family’s stepdaughter being so extravagant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must’ve forgotten, she’s not any ordinary rich stepdaughter; she’s someone favored by the Xie Family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, this place wasn’t originally called Ran Mansion. If she could snatch this place from others, she’s definitely not simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re begging her for something this time; if you offend her, we won’t have anything good to look forward to later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just said something without thinking, didn’t mean it...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They finished a pot of tea, but Yun Ran still hadn’t arrived, making it clear she was giving them the cold shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they said no more, their faces were far from pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after another ten minutes did Yun Ran finally come over, still in her loungewear, showing no sign of having dressed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader’s eyes flickered with a glint but quickly returned to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has Lady Yun finally finished her tasks?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone with a thin skin or a sense of shame would feel embarrassed at being asked like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yun Ran felt no embarrassment; this was her home, and they had shown up uninvited. If not for them being from the Capital, she wouldn’t have let them in at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, she had even served them tea, the finest kind, reserved for herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Note to self: have Old Liu buy some inferior tea to avoid using her own for uninvited guests in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran sat on her designated pink sofa, raising an eyebrow slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Knowing I’m busy, you still came unannounced. Even if I’m from a humble family, don’t you people from the Capital know it’s polite to notify before visiting someone’s home?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t expect Yun Ran to be so blunt, leaving no room for dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader clenched a fist, then released it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steadying himself, he lowered his tone, \"We are from the Wang Family in the Capital, and we wish to request Lady Yun’s help in saving someone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1042,"2026-06-06T11:48:49.457Z",1,"novelbin.me","899bf01fc9493028bec5ee3fc3d68e0bd7713088676d189220eab7d46b57d5f8","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-407","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-405",1219,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-cover.jpg"]
