The reason why she said this was because Madam Zhong had investigated Ying Zijin thoroughly.
She was a country bumpkin from Qingshui County and had no one to rely on in Hu City.
She used to have Family Ying as her backing, but now that she had left Family Ying, what else could she do?
Yes, there was the Hua Hua Calligraphy Artists Association.
But could the Hua Hua Calligraphy Artists Association protect Ying Zijin's country bumpkin father and brother?
She had to think twice before making a move on Ying Zijin, but could she not make a move on two country bumpkins?
Mrs. Zhong believed that Ying Zijin would be very tactful.
"Okay."
However, the girl's voice was calm and even had a low chuckle. Her tone did not fluctuate at all, and it was cold. "You can try."
Mrs. Zhong frowned and said unhappily, "Ying Zijin, I gave you a chance. You'd better not —"
A beeping sound came from the phone. The call had been hung up.
Mrs. Zhong took a deep breath and sneered. "Okay, okay, okay. Young people these days are really arrogant and bold. Now that you've come to a big city, you've already forgotten.
"Mom, don't …" Zhong Zhiwan was still a little confused. "Ying Zijin, she actually …"
"Don't what?" Mrs. Zhong put down the phone. "She's deliberately trying to step on you. Otherwise, why would she expose the art festival at this time?"
Zhong Zhiwan's lips moved. He wanted to say that he was sure that Ying Yuexuan was the one who posted the news.
But he knew that no one would believe him even if he said it.
"Since she doesn't know what's good for her, then don't blame me for being rude." Mrs. Zhong made another call, but no one knew who she was calling. "Hello, check where Wen Fengmian and Wen Tinglan live."
"Let me know when you find out. I'll get someone to control them."
Zhong Zhiwan was stunned and did not dare to refute Mrs. Zhong.
"Alright, let's go to First Light Media now." Mrs. Zhong stood up and warned her again, "You must not contradict their designer. Apologize humbly, understand?"
Zhong Zhiwan nodded woodenly.
However, before Mrs. Zhong could pack her things and leave, the door of the villa opened.
The ones who came back were Old Master Zhong and Butler Zhong who followed behind him.
The two of them had just returned from the company.
Zhong Zhiwan's plagiarism incident also had a certain impact on the Zhong Group, especially since the Zhong Group had quite a lot of connections with the design industry.
After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Zhong Group.
Fortunately, the Zhong Group had always been diligent in doing business. Most netizens did not associate the two together.
However, a small portion of it was enough for the company's shareholders to be overwhelmed.
This was because the shareholders were unhappy with Zhong Zhiwan.
Old Mr. Zhong did not look at Zhong Zhiwan. He turned his head away.
"Eldest Miss, this is your passport." Butler Zhong walked forward and took out a notebook. "The plane ticket is this weekend. The time is enough for you to apologize to the public."
Zhong Zhiwan's body trembled. He could not believe it. "Grandpa?"
She took the plane ticket. When she saw that the destination was a small country in the northern part of Continent O, her fingers trembled.
"Old Master!" Mrs. Zhong's expression changed. "Why are you sending her abroad?"
It sounded like a good thing, but for the children of rich families, it was called exile.
It was a choice made when the result was extremely bad.
"Eldest Miss, you've gone too far. Old Master has always been fair. He can't protect you." Butler Zhong ignored Mrs. Zhong. "This is the last thing Old Master can give you. Go abroad and turn over a new leaf."
"Before you turn 18, you will have a guardian there. He will ensure your safety, food, shelter, and transportation. When you become an adult, you will have to rely on yourself."
"When Old Master was your age, he had already started his own business."
Zhong Zhiwan's hands trembled. Tears streamed down her face again.
She had been the princess of the family since she was young. She had never suffered.
Letting her live alone in a foreign country was simply torture.
"No!" Mrs. Zhong could not accept it. "I won't send Wanwan abroad!"
"Don't worry, Madam." Butler Zhong took out another document. "This is for you."
"What is it?" Mrs. Zhong took it and looked at it. Her pupils shrank.
It was a divorce agreement.
She flipped to the last page and saw that there was a signature on it.
Zhong Haiyan.
Butler Zhong pointed at the other piece of paper. "This is what Haiyan wants to say to you."
Seeing that piece of paper, Mrs. Zhong's pupils shrank again.
The general idea was that she had led Zhong Zhiwan astray. Zhong Haiyan was so disappointed that he wanted to divorce her.
He wanted to expel her from the Zhong family.
Zhong Zhiwan was Old Master Zhong's granddaughter, but she had no blood relations with the Zhong family.
Mrs. Zhong did not expect things to turn out like this. She could not even stand properly.
But a pen was forced into her hand.
"Sign it, Madam."
Mrs. Zhong knew that no matter how she resisted, she could not do anything. She had no choice but to sign her name.
Butler Zhong put away the divorce agreement. "Haiyan will be back in a few days. He will inform you to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
At this moment, Old Master Zhong finally spoke. "Butler, send her out."
Rather than sending her out, it was better to say that he was driving her out.
Along with Mrs. Zhong's daily necessities and other things, they were all thrown out.
Old Master Zhong went upstairs.
Steward Zhong stopped and added, "Eldest Young Miss, take care of yourself."
**
At this moment, on an island five time zones away from Hua City.
This island was located in the Pacific Ocean. It was surrounded by the sea and occupied a large area. It was comparable to a city with a population of five million.
But the specific location of this island could not be found on the world map.
This was one of the strongholds of the Hidden Alliance.
There was a special airport and port on the island.
Ying Zijin was still on the plane. She squatted down slightly and looked at the computer.
There were two pictures on the computer. Beside them was an unknown square machine.
It was something like a printer.
She watched as Fu Yunshen pressed a few buttons. The machine started to operate.
A few minutes later, two masks as thin as cicada's wings appeared.
They were the same as the pictures on the screen.
Fu Yunshen picked up one of them and handed it to her.
Ying Zijin took it and nodded. "So those disguises on the ranking list are actually using advanced technology?"
"Not necessarily." Fu Yunshen chuckled. "There are also others. Those are real skills. I was in a hurry, so I used this."
Ying Zijin put on the mask.
She found that not only did it not cause any damage to her skin, but it was also very fitting.
In the mirror, another face appeared. It was impossible to tell what the original face was.
She was deep in thought.
It seemed that she was indeed an antique. She was disguised or put on makeup.
When the two of them got off the plane, someone immediately rushed over.
"Young master, you're finally here." It was a young man. He walked over quickly. "Something happened. You have to go and deal with it."
Fu Yunshen's expression froze. He looked sideways.
"You go." Ying Zijin put on her sunhat. "I'm fine."
"It's in the central area. The other places are too chaotic. Don't go first." Fu Yunshen finished speaking and turned his head. "I'm not here. Her orders are my orders."
The young man's expression froze. He quickly lowered his head. "Yes!"
However, Fu Yunshen did not leave immediately. He first sent Ying Zijin to the central area.
The central area of the Hidden Alliance was not much different from the city center of a big city. There were shopping malls and entertainment facilities.
"Miss Ying, hello. My name is Yunshan." The young man was very respectful. "I'll be responsible for your safety on this trip."
At the same time, Yunshan was also secretly sizing up the girl.
Doubts grew in his heart.
Of course, he knew that Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin were both disguised.
However, he really couldn't tell what was so special about her.
But for Fu Yunshen to say that, there must be something special about her.
"You're welcome." Ying Zijin lifted her chin slightly. "I'll go buy something to eat."
Yunshan was still a little confused.
Then, in the next ten minutes, he watched as the girl bought milk tea and desserts. She was so relaxed that it was as if she was really shopping.
Yunshan thought to himself, "Isn't this girl a little too careless?"
Although the central area was said to be the most peaceful, it did not mean that nothing would happen.
What if …
Just as this thought popped up in his mind, he suddenly heard a loud noise.
In front, a group of more than ten people was walking towards them.
They did not care who the people in front of them were and directly kicked them aside.
"It's the people from Dark Gold." Yunshan looked over and his expression changed slightly. "They actually dare to cause trouble in the central area."
He quickly said, "Miss Ying, let's go over here."
Ying Zijin had no intention of arguing with the people here. She nodded and turned around.
But she was too late.
The group of people had already arrived.
One of the tall young men did not even look. He waved his hand and knocked all the milk tea and desserts in the girl's hands to the ground.
The noise suddenly stopped.
----- Digression —
The disguise mask was based on Mission Impossible. It seemed to be a 3D printing technology.
There were only two days left. The monthly ticket had expired.
