Ruan Qian'an drove his car and stopped at a detached villa, following the location sent by his subordinate. There were only a few houses in the area, and they were quite far apart from each other.

Although not as luxurious as the Huo family's, it still had a certain grandeur.

Ruan Qian'an stopped at the small villa and looked around. This must be the place that Ruan Ming prepared for Ruan Qingyu when she first returned to the Ruan family.

Ruan Qian'an got out of the car, opened the door, and walked straight in. She stretched out her fingers and wiped the table, which was covered with a layer of dust.

It seemed no one lived here. Ruan Qian'an looked around and walked towards a warehouse, following the red dot on her phone.

There was a hidden door here. Ruan Qian'an tried pushing it, but it wasn't closed and seemed to be open and unobstructed, as if it had been left there specifically for her.

Ruan Qian'an walked in, raised an eyebrow at the scene before her, and said with amusement, "What's going on?"

The girl, panting heavily, looked over with flushed cheeks. The moment she saw Ruan Qian'an, her eyes sparkled.

She quickly rushed towards Ruan Qian'an, throwing herself into Ruan Qian'an's arms and saying in a soft voice, "Sister, you're here."

Ruan Qian'an remained noncommittal: "Hmm."

Ruan Qingyu glanced at the person behind her, stood on tiptoe, covered Ruan Qian'an's eyes, and said, "Let's go, sister, don't look at filthy things."

The man shuddered violently upon hearing Ruan Qingyu's words.

Ruan Qian'an smiled faintly, but her covered eyes held no warmth: "Okay."

The two came out of the warehouse, and Ruan Qingyu pulled Ruan Qian'an to sit down on the only clean sofa in the room.

Ruan Qingyu asked affectionately, "Why are you here, sister?"

Ruan Qian'an said indulgently, "You know perfectly well why I'm asking."

Ruan Qingyu chuckled and said, "Sister has discovered it."

Ruan Qian'an: "Mm."

Suddenly, Ruan Qingyu moved even closer to Ruan Qian'an and said pitifully, "What should I do, sister? Are you going to hit me?"

Blood flowed down, dripping onto the two of them.

Ruan Qian'an rubbed Ruan Qingyu's cheek, while his other hand gripped the blade tightly, making it impossible for Ruan Qingyu to budge.

Ruan Qingyu's smile froze, and she said resentfully, "Failed again."

Then, she released the hilt of the knife and glanced at Ruan Qian'an's hand, which was bleeding profusely from gripping the blade. It was clear that Ruan Qingyu truly wanted Ruan Qian'an dead.

Instead of being satisfied with her failure, Ruan Qingyu relaxed and asked, "Since you feel indebted to me, why don't you just obediently die?"

Ruan Qian'an said matter-of-factly, "Evil lives on for a thousand years."

Ruan Qingyu scoffed, "He's just afraid of dying, a coward as big as a mouse."

Ruan Qian'an casually tossed the knife aside, pondering with her bloodied hand. Her face was covered in blood, but she said with amusement, "So you, Zhang Yushu, and Zheng Qing formed a victim alliance to kill me, this menace?"

Ruan Qingyu said indignantly, "Of course, you're the one who harmed all three of us. Look at how you've tormented Zheng Qing. What's wrong with seeking revenge against you?"

Mentioning Zheng Qing seemed to remind Ruan Qingyu of her own experience. It turned out that Zheng Qing had treated her that way because Ruan Qian'an had treated Zheng Qing the same way.

Ruan Qingyu couldn't imagine what this meant for a woman.

Ruan Qingyu snorted coldly: "If one person can't beat you, can't a group of people beat you?"

"In the end, we still miscalculated."

Ruan Qian'an said calmly, "They all have a grudge against me."

She sighed inwardly, but she hadn't done anything wrong. How had she come to be enemies with them? Ruan Qian'an couldn't figure it out.

Then she curled her lips into a smile; perfect people are always the envy of others.

Ruan Qian'an lovingly touched Ruan Qingyu's cheek with her bloodied hand and said, "My silly sister, do you believe everything others say?"

"When you use others as pawns, you are also a pawn in their game."

Ruan Qingyu turned away in disgust and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Ruan Qian'an said with amusement, "A pure white jade, you think Zheng Qing would be used by you for nothing? You let her take self-destructive revenge, but you never thought of getting yourself into trouble. You're not strong enough, yet you're trying to get your hands on a tiger."

He paused deliberately, then said, slowly and deliberately, "I have to commend you for your courage."

Ruan Qingyu froze and murmured, "Impossible, I have never shown my face before, Zheng Qing could not possibly know it was me."

"Only Zhang Yushu was shown up, so the revenge should be taken against Zhang Yushu."

“Even Zhang Yushu didn’t know it was her who sent the message, so how could Zheng Qing possibly know that she was the one behind it all?” Ruan Qingyu said unconsciously, biting her thumb.

Ruan Qian'an: "Look, everything you've done isn't for anyone else, it's all for yourself."

Despite her inner panic, Ruan Qingyu gritted her teeth and said, "So what? Everyone looks out for themselves. Besides, I only told her one thing. What she does is her business. Whatever happens and what the consequences are, she should bear them herself."

Ruan Qian'an smiled but didn't say anything. People are willing to find a thousand reasons not to admit their mistakes.

Ruan Qian'an looked at her with pity in her eyes. Since she had already said that, why couldn't she accept her selfishness, yet she looked so devastated?

Ruan Qian'an: "Isn't such a conscious act of depravity painful?"

Ruan Qingyu smiled, a look of defeat on her face, and lay back on the sofa.

Looking at the furnishings in the room, with a look of longing on her face, she spoke of even more painful things and explained why she wanted to kill Ruan Qian'an.

Ruan Qingyu sighed, "If I hadn't come back, would none of this have happened?"

After a long while, just when Ruan Qian'an thought she wouldn't speak again, she spoke: "This house was given to me by Ruan Ming."

"I was very happy when I received it."

"I came to this home with trepidation, because I knew I had been abandoned and thought no one would treat me well. I returned home with sharp thorns in my heart."

"I still don't understand why they came back to me after abandoning me."

"But as soon as I entered the Ruan family home, I was captivated by its luxury."

"Soon after, Ruan Ming gave me this little villa. I was shocked. Is this what life is like for the rich? Giving away houses is so casual. I never dared to dream of this before."

"I think I've finally met someone who's good to me."

"Ruan Minh hates you and despises you because your brilliance overshadows his."

"Because of you, your mother has given you all her love."

"Because of the pain he suffered."

"So I also loathe and hate you, and this has unknowingly become a habit."

"In order to deal with you, they even drove Mother out as well."

Ruan Qingyu laughed and said, "How could I have feelings for a woman I've never met? Even though we are related by blood, she has never been kind to me. So why should I have any pity for my so-called mother?"

"I only care about Nguyen Minh."

At the height of her emotions, she stood up and said fiercely, "So why don't you just die? Why don't you just die yourself?"

Ruan Qingyu slumped weakly onto the sofa and said, "But you saved me, why did you save me? Why? To make it so that I can't hurt you."

Ruan Qian'an chuckled: "It seems my sister is a kind person."

Ruan Qingyu raised her slightly sad eyes and said, "But Ruan Ming has developed feelings for me that he shouldn't have. He disgusts me."

"I'm really going to break down, why! Why! It's turned out like this."

"Because of you, my idolized brother has become like this."

Ruan Qingyu grabbed her hair tightly and said, "Why would he feel that kind of emotion!"

"What did I do wrong to deserve this treatment?"

With a hint of a smile in her eyes, Ruan Qian'an asked, "Really? Then do you hate him?"

Ruan Qingyu laughed maniacally, collapsing in a frenzy.

He kept asking, "Why? Why? Why!"

As Ruan Qingyu continued her rambling, she looked up from her sorrow and saw that Ruan Qian'an had already bandaged her wounds.

She was propping her head up with one hand, almost asleep, as if her words were a hypnotic spell.

When Ruan Qian'an heard the sound stop, she yawned and said to Ruan Qingyu, "Are you done talking?"

Ruan Qingyu stared blankly at the calm Ruan Qian'an and nodded.

With a swift chop, Ruan Qian'an knocked Ruan Qingyu unconscious.

"Since you can't accept yourself like this."

"Then don't worry, little sister, I will make you atone for your sins."

As Ruan Qingyu fell into a deep sleep, she thought of this.

Help me, sister.
