Chapter 333: Stumbling Onto A Secret (II)
Zhai Heng was quite pleased with how his uncle and brother supported him just now, so he said a few words. He snorted, "I would be happy if Yun Tao stopped coming to our house every now and then. I am tired of seeing his flattering face. He always comes looking for me, saying that he wants to learn from me but he always causes trouble for me. The last time at new year, he was the one who ruined the chicken but he blamed it on me! Bah! I did not even go to the kitchen but my grandfather believed him rather than me."
"It’s impossible for your cousin to stop visiting," remarked Zhou Ziming. There was no way the Zhai family could break ties with the Yun family. After all, their daughter was married into that family. He then thought of Han Ruochen and said to his nephew, "Learn something from the young lady. She has more trouble than you but she knows how to protect her interests rather than jumping around. You are older than her and still cannot deal with something so simple."
Zhai Heng rolled his eyes; he did not say anything. It was not that he did not want to refute but he was too happy to ruin his mood. He ignored his uncle and returned to his room. Once inside he stopped suppressing the smile on his lips and started to dance around, finally! Finally, he was able to get one up on Yun Tao. For more than twenty years, after substracting the years when Yun Tao was not born and was way too young, that man had been pulling all kinds of jokes on him. He would do everything in his power to cause trouble for him.
Zhai Heng had never been able to deal with him because that brat was way too obnoxiously sly. But this time around he was finally able to deal with Yun Tao. It was really good! No wonder Yun Tao liked to make him lower his head all the time; the taste of victory was actually this good!

Han Ruochen had no idea what was going on in the Zhai family. After Zhai Heng and his uncle left, she also decided to embark on a new adventure instead of going to the sea. She had to thank Zhou Ziming’s sudden appearance for this. Because she had been locked inside the Yang family house in her past life, she did not know a lot about the world. But she did remember two big pieces of news from her past life. First was, Zhou Ziming’s sudden death. No one knew how he passed away. But he died not long after Zhai Heng’s death.
Second was the good piece of land that her good niece purchased in her past life. After she activated the sea-scanning system by using Han Ruochen’s blood, her niece had bought a piece of land. It was supposed to be useless but it turned out to be quite a fortune after some years. Her niece built a big public harbour on that piece of land and then used it to make her own docking area and marine processing station.
If not for Zhou Ziming’s arrival, Han Ruochen would have forgotten all about it! Fortunately, that man came to look for her and her memory was shaken awake. Thinking about it, Han Ruochen patted her chest. It was a good thing that she recalled it or else she would have lost the chance to purchase that piece of land.
As she marched toward the village head’s house, she took a detour and went to look for the piece of land. When she arrived at the piece of land that her niece had purchased, she saw nothing but overgrown grass, uneven earth and an old shack that had turned half rotten from years of storms.
But when she thought about how this land turned into a priceless treasure in just a few years, her heart could not help but burn with a furious rage. This piece of land was something that the sea scanning system must have stored and saved for her but her niece sensed something amiss because of the glitch in the system. So she forced Han Ziyan to bleed her again and again to make the sea scanning system work for her. Han Ruochen still remembered that compared to sea hunting, when her niece was dealing with this piece of land, Han Ziyan slashed her three times a day!
That too for a month!
This land did not belong to them but they still refused to give up and used her blood until she was dying.
Han Ruochen closed her eyes and clenched her fists. No, she needed to calm down; her niece was yet to be born and she was not locked up by the Yang family for the time being.
She opened her eyes and just as she expected, the sea scanning system responded to her much more easily than it did to her niece.

Han Ruochen’s eyes brightened slightly. Sure enough, it was just as she expected; she was the destined host of the sea scanning system!
She looked around the coastline and understood why her niece was so adamant about getting this piece of land. After all, this piece of land was connected to the deeper sea currents that were inaccessible to the public harbour currently. If she succeeded in securing this piece of land, she could build her private docking area with ease!
She did not have to pay the ridiculous docking fee anymore and in the future this land could become her foundation.
Just as Han Ruochen decided to buy this piece of land, she heard the sound of scuffling followed by a familiar voice.
"How many times have I told you!? You cannot do this without using any precautions. What if I get pregnant?"
