The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 27: What is Divine Calculation

His eyes narrowed briefly, “Kid, I’ve got something to do, so I might not be able to have dinner with you now. How about we reschedule it to tonight?”

Hearing this, Ying Zijin recalled something.

It had been precisely seven days since the first time she met them.

Nie Chao was going to be in trouble.

Clearly, he hadn’t taken her words seriously.

However, that was normal.

She remembered that just before she left, in the year 1780, all the witch sorcerers in O-continent had been hunted down and executed as heretics.

After so many years, there were very few people with true divination abilities left, and Hua Country was no exception.

Nobody would believe in these things.

“It won’t take long.” Fu Yunshen didn’t hear a response and turned around, his peachy eyes curving, “I’ll order some takeout for you and your uncle, and you can go back to sleep, how’s that?”

The danger was not clear yet, and he obviously couldn’t bring a little girl with him.

Ying Zijin also understood what he meant; he hadn’t planned to let her accompany him.

She frowned slightly, “Be careful of high places.”

At her words, the curve of Fu Yunshen’s lips grew wider. He lifted his hand to ruffle the girl’s hair, his smile gentle, “Alright, I’ll listen to our little friend here.”

He opened the car door and left her at the entrance of the apartment.

Once the car started up again and moved away, Fu Yunshen’s smile slowly faded.

He drove with one hand while lighting up his phone screen with the other.

The message was still flashing crazily on the screen, very short.

Sharpshooter No.94.

Aside from the number being different, it was named the same as the first file he had seen that day.

Fu Yunshen’s eyes narrowed briefly.

He hadn’t expected that Nie Chao could also become a target for someone on the assassination rankings.

Fu Yunshen deleted the message and made a phone call: “Check recent movements of the Nie family.”

On Huangpu Road, the Number One Pub.

Today, they were hosting a grand opening celebration, and by noon, quite a few people had gathered.

Nie Chao had taken up the best spot next to the bar, ready to have a good drink.

It wasn’t long before the area was filled with people and the stage was set up.

Nie Chao was listening to music with headphones when, after only the intro, the music suddenly stopped playing.

“Huh?” he wondered, “Can’t be broken already, right?”

He had only bought it not too long ago.

However, before he had time to take them off to check, a voice, unrecognizable as male or female, came through the earphones.

“You’re at Huangpu Road Number One Pub.”

Nie Chao was startled, “How do you know?”

Fuck, who was this person? Not only hacking into his phone but also knowing his whereabouts? It couldn’t be his old man sending someone to catch him, could it?

The person on the other end didn’t reply, simply stating, “Someone is trying to kill you.”

“Stop joking,” Nie Chao said in disbelief, “Who dares to kill in Hua Country? Who are you, really?”

“In ten seconds.” Ying Zijin watched a flashing red dot on her computer screen and narrowed her phoenix eyes, “You can try it out.”

Nie Chao laughed it off, not wanting to bother and was about to turn his phone off directly.

But just then, all the lights in the pub suddenly went out.

In the pitch darkness, someone screamed.

Nie Chao was also stunned, before he could react, two words came through the earphones.

“Get down.”

“Bang!”

Nie Chao threw himself to the ground; he could feel the rush of hot air above him as the bullet grazed past the top of his head by a mere whisker.

Fuck?

Someone was actually trying to kill him!

The pub instantly plunged into chaos, with screams erupting everywhere.

Nie Chao’s legs felt weak; he believed it now.

He swallowed hard, “What should I do now?”

Ying Zijin didn’t use a voice changer, relying solely on her vocal cords to produce a different tone, she spoke calmly, “Turn right three steps.”

Nie Chao hurriedly complied.

“Bang!”

Just as he turned, another explosion sounded right behind him, still missing by that bit.

Nie Chao’s sweat poured down as he cursed in his heart.

Damn, what the hell is going on!

And the voice in the headset continued to give instructions, very calmly, even leisurely.

“Bend over.”

“Jump.”

“Run now.”

Nie Chao didn’t have any doubts left, and started running as fast as he could.

It wasn’t until he had frantically run for thirty seconds that the last two words came through his earpiece.

“Done.”

Nie Chao collapsed on the ground with a “thump,” his whole body feeling as if he’d died once, gasping for air: “Holy shit…”

In the apartment, Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair and yawned.

That took a lot out of her.

She needed to eat some chocolate mousse cake.

By the time Fu Yunshen arrived, the Number One Pub was already cordoned off.

Although there were no casualties, the bar’s facilities had been pretty much destroyed.

Especially when bullet holes were found in the floor and walls, which couldn’t be ignored.

Fu Yunshen looked to the side and saw Nie Chao squatting by the side of the road like an idiotic dog, with a bandage wrapped around his forehead no less.

The man was not seriously injured, though.

His eyes softened, and he walked over: “You’re not getting up?”

Nie Chao wanted to cry: “Seventh Young Master, do you have any idea, I almost didn’t make it.”

“I can tell,” Fu Yunshen glanced around, calculating the situation.

Nie Chao angrily slapped his thigh: “I don’t know who has such a big grudge against me to actually try and kill me.”

Those bullets were way too accurate; if it wasn’t for the mysterious person who hacked his phone to help him, he would have really met an early demise.

With that skill, why don’t they kill the old man of his family; killing him is useless.

Fu Yunshen didn’t say much, just pulled him up: “Let’s go to the hospital first.”

Nie Chao pretended to wipe away tears, and sat in the passenger seat.

Fu Yunshen started the car, nonchalantly: “How did you think of coming here?”

Nie Chao scratched his head: “I was passing by and got a flyer, it looked pretty good, so I came.”

Fu Yunshen hummed softly in reply.

It was indeed not a coincidence.

“Seventh Young Master, I’m going to sleep for a bit.” Nie Chao, still shaken from the narrow escape, felt a wave of drowsiness come over him, “Call me when we get there.”

After confirming that Nie Chao had fallen asleep, Fu Yunshen finally picked up the phone that had rung several times.

“Yunshen?”

The deep and pleasant male voice was magnetic.

“Your brother has a bounty on his head,” Foo Yunshen chuckled lazily, “The hunter is the ninety-fourth on the Gun God Ranking. But he has good luck, wasn’t hit, just got a bump on his head while running.”

Anyone on the Gun God Ranking, even if they are just at the end of the list at a hundredth, are deadly accurate against an ordinary person.

But today was strange, he saw five bullet holes, and not one hit its mark.

A stain on the name of a ‘Gun God.’

Hearing this, there was silence on the other end for a moment.

“I got it, I’ll be back soon.”

After parting with her agent, Ying Luwei made a call to the old house first.

It was only in the evening that she drove back.

“Miss Luwei,” the butler that had been waiting for some time came forward, respectfully, “Madam is inside, you can just go straight in.”

Ying Luwei smiled and pushed open the door.

In the living room, Zhong Manhua trimmed the flowers in the vase, looked up upon hearing the door, and smiled: “Luwei, what’s the hurry, is there something you need?”

“It’s a bit of a matter, I just wanted to ask sister-in-law if Xiao Jin is considering entering the entertainment industry?” Ying Luwei nodded, “If she wants to join the entertainment industry, I can help.”

She hesitated for a moment: “But if that’s the case, about the Verdant Talented Class… would she not be able to attend anymore?”
