Ruan Xiaodie’s expression was still cold and she did not say a word.

“Let’s not even talk about what you did before. Just the fact that you instigated Zhen Chongming to kidnap Zhen Zhu is enough for you to go to jail.”

Sang Qianqian was still trying to use emotions to convince her. “Tell me where Zhen Zhu is and I can guarantee that you won’t be held accountable. Otherwise, when the police get involved, many things will be out of our control. Xiaodie, you wouldn’t let Sister Xiaoshuang down, right?”

She looked at Ruan Xiaodie and whispered, “You’re still so young. You have a long life ahead of you. Think about it. If Shao Jin was still alive, would he be willing to see you become like this?”

Every time she heard Shao Jin’s name, Ruan Xiaodie’s expression stiffened, but she finally opened her mouth. “You’re not him. How do you know what he’s thinking?”

“Two days after the accident, he came to look for me.”

Xie Shi’an couldn’t hold it in anymore. “He specifically asked me to take good care of you if anything happened to him and Master Cheng.”

Thinking of the scene that day, his voice was a little low. “He and Master Cheng don’t want you to get involved in the Ruan family’s dispute. No one wanted the Ruan family to come to this point. It’s hard to tell what’s right and wrong, and this is not something you should bear. Xiaodie, no one will blame you for anything. You don’t have to hold grudges or blame yourself. You just have to live your life properly. As long as you live well, Shao Jin and Master Cheng can rest in peace in the afterlife…”

Ruan Xiaodie sat in a daze, her eyes slowly turning red.

She lowered her head as if tears were falling. In the strangely quiet resting room, there were only her suppressed sobs.

After a long time, Ruan Xiaodie finally stopped crying. She said slowly, “Alright, I can tell you where Zhen Zhu is. It’s just that…”

She looked up and slowly shifted her gaze from Xie Shi’an to Sang Qianqian. “You should know that what I did was far more than just urging Zhen Chongming to kidnap Zhen Zhu. How do you plan to dispose of me?”

“The word ‘dispose’ is too heavy.”

Sang Qianqian looked at her deeply. “Xiaodie, you might not believe me if I tell you. You may have called me sister out of courtesy, but 1 truly treat you as my younger sister. You’re so talented and intelligent at painting. If you’re willing to study abroad in the future, you’ll definitely achieve great things.”

Of course, the premise was that she had to let go of her obsession and stop trying to cause any more waves. She had to leave the capital from now on.

Ruan Xiaodie turned to Xie Shi’an and asked, “What about Brother Shi’an? Do you think so too?”

Xie Shi’an was silent for a while. “1 used to think that you had a problem with your intelligence. 1 only wanted to take good care of you for the rest of your life. That would be enough for Shao Jin and Master Cheng. Although Qianqian had always comforted me and said that your ‘illness’ might not be incurable, 1 had always hoped that one day, you would be able to live like a normal person.”

His expression was strangely complicated, but there was also some relief. “If you’re willing to study abroad and walk the path of a normal person, I’ll naturally be happy from the bottom of my heart.”

“Since Brother Shi’an and Sister Qianqian both think that this is the best, then it’s settled.”

Ruan Xiaodie thought about it and agreed readily. “But you have to help me find an excuse to cover up for my sister.”

She twisted her fingers uncomfortably. “Sister has always been soft-hearted and kind. If she knew what I did, she might not acknowledge me as her sibling anymore…”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let Sister Xiaoshuang know about those things.”

Sang Qianqian said gently, “Her eyes have just recovered. The doctor told her to rest well and not to be provoked. Therefore, we wouldn’t dare to tell her.”

Ruan Xiaodie was relieved. “Thank you, Sister Qianqian and Brother Shi’an.”

“What time is it now?” she asked Xie Shi’an.

Xie Shi’an told her the time. Ruan Xiaodie thought for a moment and immediately gave her an address. “Zhen Zhu is here at the moment. You should quickly send someone over, but Zhen Chongming must be heavily guarded. You have to be careful.”

Sang Qianqian was puzzled. “Right now?”

Ruan Xiaodie nodded. “Yes, Zhen Chongming asked Zhen Zhu to move to another place every two hours. She should be here now.”

Jian Zheng, who hadn’t said a word all along, couldn’t help but frown “Are you sure? We can’t be rash when it comes to saving people.”

If there was no one inside when they arrived, or if Zhen Zhu had already moved away, it would only alert the enemy and affect the subsequent operations.

“Of course I’m sure.”

Ruan Xiaodie glanced at Sang Qianqian and whispered, “1 already knew that Brother-in-law has done a lot of research on the internet. How could I let my guard down? I was the one who helped Zhen Chongming decide on the transfer plan and route.”

Not only did they change their location every two hours, but they also used layers of camouflage in the process, just in case Shen Hanyu traced Zhen Zhu’s whereabouts.

Sang Qianqian and Xie Shi’an looked at each other. It was obvious that both of them were moved.

Ruan Xiaodie was too smart, and her mind and strategy might not lose if compared to Ruan Cheng.

If she insisted on going her own way, who knew how much trouble she would cause.

Fortunately, she was willing to turn over a new leaf. There was nothing better than this!

No matter what, now that he knew where Zhen Zhu was, things were much easier.

Jian Zheng immediately contacted Shen Hanyu and informed him of the situation. On the other end, Shen Hanyu communicated with Zhen Yiping and confirmed the rescue plan. Tang Bochuan would personally lead the rescue team to rescue her.

After everything was settled, Ruan Xiaodie rubbed her stomach and said to Xie Shi’an, “Brother Shi’an, can I go eat now? My stomach is about to shrivel from hunger.”

Her appearance was as pure and innocent as usual as if she didn’t understand the world.

Xie Shi’an thought deeply for a bit, “Of course you can. Let’s go now.”

Downstairs, Ruan Xiaoshuang was anxiously waiting. When she saw them coming down, she immediately came over.

“Sister Xiaoshuang, 1 have good news for you.”

Sang Qianqian and the others had already discussed how to explain this to her. She smiled and said, “Xiaodie has already recovered.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang was stunned.

“I know who my sister is, and 1 know who I am.”

Ruan Xiaodie blinked mischievously. “I’ve returned to normal a long time ago. I just thought it was fun to pretend to be a child, so I didn’t tell you in time. Who knew that Brother Shi’an would discover my secret and feel that he had been deceived by me, so he flew into a rage…”

Ruan Xiaoshuang was stunned for more than ten seconds before she understood Ruan Xiaodie’s words.

She could not believe it at all and her words were almost incoherent. “Is-is it like what Xiaodie said? Does she really not need any more treatment?”

“It’s true.”

Sang Qianqian smiled and nodded. “Absolutely.”

Ruan Xiaoshuang was pleasantly surprised and excited. She pulled Ruan Xiaodie and looked at her for a long time before hugging her tightly in her arms.

The eyes of the two sisters turned red, and Sang Qianqian sighed.

She had originally planned to leave with Jian Zheng, but she thought about whether Tang Bochuan’s rescue plan would go well or not, and she might need Ruan Xiaodie’s further help with that.

After thinking about it, she decided to stay. It would not be too late to leave after Zhen Zhu was confirmed to be rescued..
