Chapter 111 Don't Ask, the Answer is Omnipotence [2 Updates]
"He broke into a private residence, illegally kidnapped, and was taken away."
A single sentence, seemingly casual, yet tinged with coldness.
It sent chills down one's spine.
Grandpa Zhong was taken aback and looked over as well.
Then he realized that Ying Zijing had not come alone.
Outside the door, there were two young men in uniform.
The uniform looked familiar to Grandpa Zhong, but he couldn't quite place where he had seen it before.
Upon hearing this, the two uniformed young men stepped through the door, grabbed Zhong Tianyun's shoulders, and instantly subdued him.
Zhong Tianyun panicked and struggled desperately: "What are you doing? Let go! Let me go! Do you know this is illegal?!"
The two uniformed young men ignored him and looked at the girl, clearly waiting for her instructions.
"Thank you both for your hard work." Ying Zijing didn't even look at the panicked Zhong Tianyun, and said calmly, "Take them away."
"Let go! Let go!" Zhong Tianyun roared as he was being dragged out of the Zhong family's old house. "Who are you people? I'm going to sue you! Let me go!"
After Zhong Tianyun was dragged away, Ying Zijing raised her leg and kicked all the bodyguards out the door, one after another.
Then he turned his head and looked at the shareholders who had come with Zhong Tianyun.
Fearing they would be kicked out as well, the shareholders didn't dare say a word and hurriedly left.
Grandpa Zhong silently picked up his reading glasses from the table and put them on.
He thought to himself that he needed to get a new pair of glasses; he was so useless, always missing his granddaughter's amazing skills.
Zhong Zhiwan was still in a daze and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Over here, Butler Zhong, who had broken free from the bodyguards' control, walked over.
The next moment, he knelt down directly in front of the girl, his voice choked with emotion, "Miss, thank you so much. Without you, it would have been so..."
If Grandpa Zhong is really taken away by Zhong Tianyun, even if he survives, he will be half dead.
Such things are all too common in power struggles within wealthy families.
Butler Zhong grew up with Old Master Zhong and was once saved by him. They weren't brothers, but they were as close as siblings.
But in that situation, he couldn't do anything. Even if he were to exchange himself for Old Master Zhong, Zhong Tianyun wouldn't agree.
“Grandpa Butler, please get up.” Ying Zijing bent down to help him up and said softly, “It’s alright, it’s all over now.”
She can't possibly be observing the future all the time, but she can sense when something important happens to the people around her.
The loss of the Jadeite Abode's treasured Ten Directions Realm occurred seventeen days ago, just beyond the range of her ability to see the past.
However, the manager of Jadeite Studio only discovered this five days ago.
The Ten Directions Realm has always been kept in a separate, sealed room with multiple layers of protection, and it is not taken out for exhibition except on important occasions.
After signing the contract with that multinational company, I only checked it once and never looked at it again.
After all, fifty years have passed, and the Ten Directions Realm has been perfectly preserved, with the most advanced protection system currently available.
Who would have thought it could be lost?
Butler Zhong stood up shakily, his voice still choked: "Miss, if you ever need anything in the future, I will do my utmost, even if it costs me my old life!"
Zhong Zhiwan was startled upon hearing this.
Butler Zhong is indeed in charge of managing the Zhong family's old residence, but in reality, he is only loyal to Old Master Zhong.
She had never said such things to her father.
“That won’t happen.” Ying Zijing shook her head slightly. “It should be me protecting you.”
She paused for a moment, then said, "Grandpa, I have something to tell you."
Grandpa Zhong nodded and glanced at Zhong Zhiwan indifferently.
I felt no emotion whatsoever.
But the meaning is obvious.
Mrs. Zhong and Zhong Zhiwan's hearts sank immediately.
This is clearly the beginning of a shift in the social order.
Even the 70-year-old housekeeper, Mrs. Zhong, stepped forward to stop them, while they did nothing.
Zhong Zhiwan felt terrible.
She didn't want to, but she had no choice; she couldn't beat those bodyguards.
Madam Zhong forced a smile, dared not say anything more, and left with Zhong Zhiwan.
He looked rather disheveled.
Butler Zhong touched his bald head: "Old Master, you talk to Miss Biao, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare some drinks for you."
After he left, only the grandfather and grandson remained in the living room.
Only then did Grandpa Zhong have a chance to tentatively ask, "Zijin, who are those two young men you brought?"
He thought the two young men were quite handsome and energetic.
Maybe it can be developed further?
Anyway, he's better than that brat from the Fu family. He's too good-looking; he's a troublemaker.
"The One Team." Ying Zijing slowly stretched and yawned. "A bet's a bet, so I'll borrow it."
Grandpa Zhong was taken aback, then suddenly remembered and exclaimed, "That one in the capital?"
Ying Zijing hummed in agreement and picked a grape from the fruit plate on the table.
Such a definite answer caused Grandpa Zhong to break down in tears.
In fact, apart from the major and minor wealthy families in the capital, the wealthy circles in other cities are also under the control of the "One Team".
The Yizi Team is truly too mysterious; even people from wealthy families, unless they are in power, have never heard of them.
Anyone who can enter the first-tier team is definitely one of the best among the younger generation in the capital.
Furthermore, Team One has a very unusual connection with the International Bureau of Investigation (IBI).
His granddaughter actually managed to borrow all the members of the "One Team"?
Grandpa Zhong pinched his thigh hard, wincing in pain, before confirming he wasn't dreaming.
But after the initial shock, his expression turned serious, and he said earnestly, "Zijin, don't tell the Ying family about this."
He has come to a complete understanding of what the Ying family is like these past few days.
After Old Master Ying passed away, the Ying family completely stopped caring about people and only about interests.
Blood ties and kinship meant nothing to the Ying family.
"Don't worry, Grandpa," Ying Zijin reassured him. "I know what I'm doing."
"It's good to know, but I'm afraid of what might happen." Old Master Zhong was relieved. He pondered for a moment, then frowned. "However, the loss of the Ten Directions Realm is indeed a difficult matter to handle."
If no order has been signed, there is still room for a refund.
The problem is, they had already signed a contract with that multinational company, and tomorrow was the delivery date.
But to this day, the Ten Directions Realm has not been found.
"Zijin, don't worry about this matter." Old Master Zhong sighed. "This is a problem for the Zhong Group, and it has nothing to do with you. You're not in good health, so you should rest more."
Ying Zijing asked thoughtfully, "Grandpa, are you going to call a shareholders' meeting?"
“That’s right.” Old Master Zhong’s expression was cold and somber. “Zhong Tianyun is just one of them. He’s impatient and couldn’t control himself. There are quite a few people like him in the Zhong Group.”
There are certainly many others who are preparing to seize power during this opportunity.
Zhong Tianyun was truly foolish to think that by controlling Old Master Zhong, he could gain control of the Zhong Group.
Little did they know that they would be exploited by others vying for power.
"I didn't go out today." Ying Zijing thought for a moment, "Would Grandpa mind if I came along?"
**
3 PM.
Zhong's Group.
In the meeting room, all the shareholders were already seated, including the few who had gone to the Zhong family with Zhong Tianyun earlier.
The shareholders who were initially unaware of the loss of the Ten Directions Realm all changed their expressions upon learning of it.
"Isn't the Ten Directions Realm protected by the most advanced security system? Why was it lost?"
"That's not important. What's important is, why are you only telling us now?"
"Now that's a problem. Mr. Eugene is coming to the company to inspect the goods tomorrow. With the Ten Directions Realm lost, what will we use to inspect the goods for him?"
Grandpa Zhong coughed once, his voice carrying an air of authority: "Quiet!"
The sounds all stopped.
One of the shareholders looked grim: "Chairman Zhong, is there any news about the Ten Directions Realm?"
"We've already sent people to look for them," Old Master Zhong said calmly. "I called you here at this time to discuss tomorrow's matters."
We certainly can't find the Ten Directions Realm in a short time, so we need a way to delay it while ensuring that the foundation of the Zhong Group is not shaken.
Upon hearing this, the shareholders exchanged glances and fell silent.
After a while, one of the shareholders said, "Why don't we ask the other three for help?"
Immediately, a voice retorted: "What a joke! They're already being kind by not interfering at all, why would they help?"
The competition among the four major clubs is also fierce.
That's why they use marriage alliances to stabilize relationships, but it's only a temporary measure.
At this moment, a middle-aged shareholder frowned and spoke up: "Uncle Zhong, it's not that I'm being blunt, but how can we let outsiders listen to a meeting of this level?"
He looked at the girl standing next to Grandpa Zhong, displeased: "She doesn't understand anything anyway. What can she do besides cause trouble here?"
Is it that they can find the Ten Directions Realm, or that they can carve?
Don't ask, the answer is omnipotence.

Don't strive for advancement, just help Ying Huang maintain this ranking.
