Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested

"You! Is that how you speak to your elders? So you *were* born, just not raised. Having grown up in the countryside, of course you’re wild!"

The middle-aged woman shot up from the sofa, pointing a finger at Yun Zijin as she shrieked her accusations.

Yun Zijin stopped in her tracks. "This is the first time we’ve met. By what right do you call yourselves my elders? If you’re going to ask for a favor, you should act like it. You waltz in here, all high and mighty, and you still expect me to reduce your rent?

Your scheming is so loud, they can probably hear it in the next province.

Are you going to leave on your own, or should I have my people throw you out? The houses in Xingyu Mansion may be far apart, but there are still plenty of people around.

If you’re seen getting thrown out by my bodyguards, I imagine you’ll become the talk of all Dijing.

I think that would be quite interesting. Don’t you?"

Yun Zijin watched the three of them with a ghost of a smile, her tone perfectly even throughout. But to them, her words sent a chill down their spines.

"You..."

The middle-aged woman tried to say more, but after a single glance from Yun Zijin, the words died in her throat.

Zero One and his seven men stood nearby, watching them like hawks, ready and waiting for the command.

The moment Yun Zijin gave the order, they would hoist the trio up and toss them out the front gate.

"Miss Yun, why must you be so aggressive? You’re a woman—what use do you have for so much money?

The Xia Family won’t even acknowledge you. If you were to side with our Wang Family, I guarantee the Xias would come begging you to take your rightful place in the family."

The young man’s words made Yun Zijin frown. ’So the talk about rent reduction was just a pretext? They have an ulterior motive.’

But Yun Zijin had no interest in hearing it. She gave Zero One a look.

Zero One gave Yun Zijin a slight nod and then walked toward the family of three.

Zero One, Zero Two, and Zero Three. Each man grabbed one person, and with a single hand at that.

Hoisted into the air, the family of three began to struggle and shout, spewing all sorts of profanities. The three men remained impassive, carrying them all the way to the front gate before heaving them outside.

Without another word, they shut the door with a SLAM.

At that very moment, a green Aston Martin DB11 happened to be driving past on the main road outside the villa.

Inside the car, a guy with dyed-red hair saw the scene and couldn’t help but exclaim, "Whoa! Intense!"

The family of three, of course, also saw the Aston Martin DB11. They were utterly humiliated, and their resentment toward Yun Zijin deepened.

They shot a hateful glare at the gate of Villa 1, then covered their faces and slinked away with their heads hung low.

As they passed the Aston Martin DB11, the person inside rolled down the window. "Hey! What happened to you guys? Who lives in Villa 1?"

Too embarrassed to stop and answer, the family of three only quickened their pace at the sound of his voice.

The red-haired guy watched the family scurry off the main road. He sat in his car and stared at Villa 1 for a long while before finally driving off.

「Inside Villa 1.」

After throwing the family out, Zero One and the other two returned to the villa without a backward glance.

"Miss, I just looked into those three. Here’s their information."

Mei Lin handed the tablet to Yun Zijin.

Yun Zijin swallowed what she was eating, then took the tablet and swiped through the information Mei Lin had compiled.

The Wang Family. The husband and wife were self-made, having built a supermarket chain from the ground up. Their son, Wang Jinyuan, had started his own creative design firm, renting a small office on the 38th floor of the Dingsi Building.

Yun Zijin scrolled further and saw that Wang Jinyuan was one of Xia Jiajiao’s high school classmates. He had even confessed his feelings to her once!

"This Wang Jinyuan is Xia Jiajiao’s high school classmate?"

Yun Zijin looked at Mei Lin.

"Yes. Wang Jinyuan is one of Xia Jiajiao’s most loyal supporters."

The member of Su Jingyun’s racing team, the person who tailed her on the way to Liuyue Hot Spring Villa, and now Wang Jinyuan... Yun Zijin had every reason to suspect Xia Jiajiao was deliberately targeting her through all of them.

’I haven’t seen Xia Jiajiao around for a while. I thought she’d finally given up, but it turns out she’s just been pulling petty tricks behind my back.’

’Except, none of her tricks have ever worked on me. I wonder how Xia Jiajiao feels about that.’

"Keep a close watch on her. Keep a copy of everything you find."

So far, Xia Jiajiao hadn’t done anything truly over the line. Even if Yun Zijin confronted her, the most she could do was give her a verbal warning.

’That would be pointless. I prefer to bide my time and go for the kill in a single strike.’

"Understood!"

Mei Lin didn’t even need to be told; she had already made the arrangements. The moment Xia Jiajiao slipped up, Mei Lin would be ready with enough evidence to bury her.

"Regarding the Hongxing Orphanage expansion, the old, unfinished structures have been completely cleared. We’ve now entered the official construction phase..."

After finishing with Xia Jiajiao, Mei Lin began to report to Yun Zijin on the progress of the Qingjin Public Welfare Foundation.

Listening to it all gave Yun Zijin a bit of a headache.

"You don’t have to tell me all this. I trust you.

But you can’t do everything yourself. You should hire a few assistants to help you.

I’ll cover their salaries from my personal funds. The money in the foundation’s account is only for charity projects; it’s not to be touched for anything else."

"I understand. The job postings are already up. It will just take some time to find suitable candidates.

As for the foundation’s operating expenses, like employee salaries, I’ve already opened a separate account. This will keep the operational funds from getting mixed up with the charity capital."

Hearing Mei Lin’s words, Yun Zijin nodded. This would indeed make the bookkeeping easier.

"Alright. In that case, transfer some funds from my account to this new one for operating expenses.

Let’s make it two million. If it’s not enough, just let me know."

’And with that, today’s spending mission is perfectly complete.’

"Understood." Mei Lin nodded, not questioning Yun Zijin’s decision in the slightest. "Tomorrow is the final round of interviews for the foundation. Would you like to attend, Miss?"

Mei Lin put down the tablet and looked at Yun Zijin.

"Sure, let’s go. I’ve never interviewed anyone before."

’I was always the one being interviewed before. It hasn’t even been that long, and now I’m the one on the other side of the table.’

"Very well."

"If there’s nothing else, you can get back to your work. Sheng Yang’s bar renovation is officially done today, so I’m going to head over and check it out.

By the way, when are the interviews?"

’If they’re today, that would be a scheduling conflict.’

"The interviews start at 9 AM tomorrow. I will remind you."

Mei Lin was in full-on workaholic mode.

Since there was no scheduling conflict, Yun Zijin put it out of her mind and left with Zero One and his seven men.

On the way to the bar, a call came through from Sheng Yang.

"Sister Yun! I’m at the bar, and Su Mengyao is here too. Where are you?"

"On my way. About ten more minutes."

Xingyu Mansion was a bit far from the bar, so the trip took a while.

"Okay, okay, Sister Yun. Drive safe, no rush. Call me when you get here, and I’ll come out to get you!"

Even though Sheng Yang tried his best to contain it, Yun Zijin could still hear the faint excitement in his voice.
