Chapter 214: 206 Daring to mess with the big shot's stuff? Expelled from the Zhong Family [3 Updates]

She said this because Lady Zhong had thoroughly investigated Ying Zijin.

A countrywoman from Qingshui County, who is alone and helpless in Shanghai City.

She used to rely on the Ying Family, but now that she has left the Ying Family, what can she do?

Yes, there is the Hua Country Calligraphers Association.

But can the Hua Country Calligraphers Association really protect Ying Zijin’s father and brother from the countryside?

She hesitated to move against Ying Zijin, but would she be stopped by two country folks?

Lady Zhong believed that Ying Zijin would know what was good for her.

“Fine.”

However, the girl’s voice was calm, even with a low smile, and her tone didn’t fluctuate at all, imbued with a coldness, “You can try.”

Lady Zhong furrowed her brow, displeased, “Ying Zijin, I gave you a chance, you’d better not be so—”

The sound of “beep, beep, beep” came from the phone; the call had already been hung up.

Lady Zhong took a deep breath, chuckling coldly, “Good, good, good. The young people of today really do have their heads in the clouds and their courage is astonishing. Arriving in the big city has made them forget who they are.”

“Mom, don’t…” Zhong Zhiwan’s mind was still a bit muddled, “Actually, Ying Zijin…”

“Don’t ‘actually’ me,” Lady Zhong put down the receiver, “She’s deliberately trying to step on you. Otherwise, why would she expose the art festival incident at this time?”

Zhong Zhiwan’s lips moved, wanting to say that she was sure the post had been made by Ying Yuexuan.

But she knew that even if she said it, no one would believe her.

“Since she won’t appreciate kindness, then don’t blame me for being unkind.” Lady Zhong made another call, to someone unknown, “Hello, check the residence of Wen Fengmian and Wen Tinglan, father and son.”

“Tell me once you find out, I will have someone contain them.”

Zhong Zhiwan looked stunned and didn’t dare to contradict Lady Zhong.

“All right, let’s go to Chuguang Media now.” Lady Zhong stood up and warned again, “You absolutely must not confront their designer, and you must apologize humbly, understand?”

Zhong Zhiwan nodded woodenly.

But before Lady Zhong could get her things and head out, the villa’s door opened.

Old Master Zhong had returned, followed by Steward Zhong.

The two had just come back from the company.

The plagiarism incident involving Zhong Zhiwan had a certain impact on Zhong Corporation, especially since Zhong Corporation indeed had significant connections in the design industry.

After all, regardless of anything, she was the young lady of Zhong Corporation.

Fortunately, Zhong Corporation had always conducted its business diligently, and most netizens did not link the two matters.

But a small portion was enough to distress the shareholders.

Because the shareholders were very displeased with Zhong Zhiwan.

Old Master Zhong didn’t look at Zhong Zhiwan; he turned his head away.

“Miss, here is your passport,” Steward Zhong stepped forward, taking out a booklet, “Your flight is this weekend. The time in between is sufficient for you to apologize to the public.”

Zhong Zhiwan’s body shook violently, in disbelief, “Grandfather?”

She took the plane ticket, and when she saw the destination was a small country in the north of O continent, her fingers also trembled.

“Old Master!” Lady Zhong’s expression changed, “Why are you sending her out of the country?”

It sounded like a good thing, but for these scions of wealthy families, it meant exile.

It was a choice made when things had gone sour to the extreme.

“Miss, you’ve gone too far. The Old Master has always been fair and cannot shield you,” Steward Zhong ignored Lady Zhong, “This is the last thing the Old Master can give you: go abroad and start anew.”

“Before you turn eighteen, there will be a guardian there for you, ensuring your safety and basic needs. Once you’re of age, you’ll have to fend for yourself.”

“When the Old Master was your age, he had already started his own business.”

Zhong Zhiwan’s hands shook, and tears flowed down again.

She had been the princess of her family since childhood, never having suffered any hardship.

Asking her to live alone in a foreign land was nothing short of torture.

“No!” Lady Zhong couldn’t accept it, “I won’t send Wanwan out of the country!”

“Madam, please don’t be anxious.” Steward Zhong took out another document, “This is for you.”

“What is this?” Lady Zhong took it and looked, her pupils contracting sharply.

It was a divorce agreement.

She flipped to the last page and saw there was already a signature on it.

Zhong Haiyan.

Steward Zhong thoughtfully pointed to another piece of paper, “These are Haiyan’s words for you.”

Seeing that paper, Lady Zhong’s pupils contracted again.

The message was that she had led Zhong Zhiwan astray and Zhong Haiyan was thoroughly disappointed and wanted a divorce.

This meant driving her out of the Zhong family.

Zhong Zhiwan was the granddaughter of Elder Zhong, but she had no blood relation to the Zhong family.

Lady Zhong hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, and she could hardly stand.

But a pen was forcefully placed in her hand.

“Sign, Madam,”

Lady Zhong knew she had no way to resist no matter what she did, and had to sign her name.

Steward Zhong collected the divorce agreement, “Haiyan will be back in a few days. You will be notified to go to the civil affairs bureau then.”

At this moment, Old Master Zhong finally spoke, “Steward, send it out.”

It was more like being kicked out than being sent out.

Along with Lady Zhong’s daily necessities and other things that she had accumulated over the years, everything was thrown out.

Old Master Zhong went upstairs.

Steward Zhong stopped and added one more thing, “Miss, take care of yourself.”

**

At this time, on an island five time zones away from Hua Country.

The island was located in the Pacific Ocean, surrounded by water on all sides, and was large enough to rival a city with a population of five million.

But on the world map, you wouldn’t be able to find the exact location of this island.

It was one of the Hidden Alliance’s strongholds.

The island had its own airport, as well as a port.

Ying Zijin was still on the plane; she squatted slightly, looking at a computer.

There were two images on the computer screen, next to which was connected an unknown cube-shaped machine.

Something similar to a printer.

She watched as Fu Yunshen pressed a few keys, and then the machine started to operate.

A few minutes later, two masks as thin as cicada wings appeared.

Just like the pictures on the screen.

Fu Yunshen picked up one of them and handed it to her.

Ying Zijin took it and nodded, “So, the face-changing artists on those rankings actually use high-tech?”

“Not necessarily,” Fu Yunshen laughed softly, “There are others, that’s real skill. But we are in a hurry, so we are using this.”

Ying Zijin put on the mask.

She found it not only did not cause any harm to the skin, but it was also very fitting.

In the mirror, another face appeared, completely concealing what the original face looked like.

She was thoughtful.

It seemed that she was indeed an old antique – when she disguised herself, it was with makeup.

The two disembarked from the plane, and immediately someone rushed over.

“Young Master, you are finally here,” said a young man as he quickly approached, “There has been an incident; you need to handle it.”

Fu Yunshen’s expression paused, and he glanced to the side.

“You go ahead,” Ying Zijin adjusted her sun hat, “I’ll be fine.”

“It’s in the Central District. Other places are too chaotic, don’t go there first,” said Fu Yunshen and then turned his head, “While I’m not here, her orders are my orders.”

The young man’s expression grew serious, and he quickly bowed his head, “Understood!”

But Fu Yunshen did not leave immediately; he first escorted Ying Zijin to the Central District.

The Central District of the Hidden Alliance wasn’t much different from the downtown of a large city – it had shopping malls and entertainment facilities.

“Miss Ying, hello, my name is Yun Shan,” the young man said respectfully, “I will be responsible for your safety along the way.”

Meanwhile, Yun Shan also sneakily sized up the girl.

A sense of wonder grew inside him.

Of course, he knew that both Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin had changed their appearances.

But he really couldn’t see what was so special about her.

There must be something exceptional about her to have Fu Yunshen speak so.

“Don’t mention it,” Ying Zijin’s chin tilted up slightly, “I’m going to buy something to eat.”

Yun Shan was still somewhat confused.

Then, over the next dozen minutes, he watched the girl buy milk tea and desserts, leisurely as if she were really just out shopping.

Yun Shan thought, was the girl a bit too carefree?

Even though the Central District was the most stable area, that didn’t mean nothing could happen.

What if…

Just as this thought came to him, suddenly a loud noise rang in his ears.@@novelbin@@

Ahead, a group of about a dozen people were walking this way.

They didn’t care who was in front of them, simply kicking anyone aside.

“It’s Dark Gold’s people,” Yun Shan looked and his expression changed slightly, “They actually dare to cause trouble in the Central District.”

He quickly said, “Miss Ying, let’s go this way.”

Ying Zijin had no intention of getting into a dispute with the people here, she nodded and turned around.

But it was a step too late.

The group had already approached.

One tall young man, without even looking, swung his arm out, knocking the milk tea and desserts right out of the girl’s hands and onto the ground.

Ying Zijin stopped in her tracks.

She glanced at the mess on the ground.

Two seconds later, she raised her head.

And rolled up her sleeves.
