After her transformation and rebirth, she manipulates the innocent and ruthless to overthrow the wor

"It's nothing." Duan Li turned his face to the side and slowly put the sword back into its sheath.

Xiao Ran understood perfectly well what he was doing.

How could nothing be wrong? Something must have happened.

"Oh, okay."

Xiao Ran became depressed and turned to walk out the door.

Duan Li watched Xiao Ran's departing figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

This morning, someone knocked on the door. He thought it was Xiao Ran coming to see him, but when he opened the door, he was surprised to see Xiao Ran's father.

As soon as Xiao Mu entered the house, he made it clear that he hoped the man would not get too close to his daughter.

But he didn't understand what constituted being too close.

Xiao Mu then told him about Xiao Ran's childhood experiences in detail, saying that Xiao Ran was also a pitiful child and he didn't want anyone to hurt her.

He suddenly remembered that day in the sunset when she held Xiao Yang tightly, saying, "You don't have to be afraid anymore." But when her mother died, was she afraid?

It turns out she also had a past that no one knew about.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!" Xiao Ran turned around and urged.

"I will never hurt you again."

Duanli suddenly blurted out a sentence.

Xiao Ran was somewhat puzzled, but still smiled gently:

"Then it's a deal."

……

The streets were bustling with traffic and people. Xiao Ran, wearing a veil, walked slowly among the crowd.

Actually, she didn't want to wear a veil, but to avoid unnecessary trouble, she ultimately chose to wear it anyway.

After all, what if everyone saw someone who should have been buried today suddenly appear alive and well in front of them?

How terrifying that scene must be!

"Do you still remember what your master looked like?" Xiao Ran asked suddenly, her eyes fixed ahead.

Duan Li was slightly taken aback, then thought for a moment and replied, "Yes."

"That makes things easier."

Xiao Ran led Duan Li, turning left and right, until they finally turned into a dead end.

The alley was dilapidated, with only some bamboo baskets and a rotten cart on the ground, indicating that it was a place for storing miscellaneous items.

However, right next to those bamboo baskets, there was a person. If you didn't look closely, the gray linen clothes he was wearing almost made him blend into his surroundings.

"Sparrow, where's your eldest?" Xiao Ran lifted a bamboo basket and asked the man.

"Sister Ran'er! It really is you! You're not dead!" said the beggar named Que'er.

Xiao Ran responded, "I just went out to take care of some business." After saying that, she casually put a cloth bag she was carrying aside.

The sparrow immediately smelled the aroma emanating from the cloth bag, rushed forward to snatch it, and began to eat it as soon as it was opened.

She mumbled incoherently, "Sister Ran'er, it's so good that you're not dead, Master Qi..."

Before she could finish speaking, Que'er looked warily at Duan Li behind Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran paused for a moment and said, "He's one of us."

Then Que'er, with a mournful face, said, "Master Qi has been arrested by the government."

Xiao Ran was shocked. Master Qi was always steady in his work. Even when his own son was murdered, he remained calm and composed. How could he have been arrested this time?

"Why?" Xiao Ran asked.

"I don't know either. I only know that someone came looking for him a few days ago, and he left in a hurry. The next day, I heard that he was arrested by the authorities," Que'er recalled carefully.

"Alright then." Xiao Ran's expression darkened slightly. She turned to Duan Li and said, "This young hero is looking for someone."

"Have you seen it before?"
