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

"Ran-jie, is that all?" Que'er quietly emerged from behind the tree, holding the murder weapon in her hand—a wooden stick.

Xiao Ran gave a soft "hmm" and turned her gaze to the undefended house in the distance.

"Master Qi, you and Que'er can pretend at the door for a while. Xiao Lan and I will be back soon."

Que'er casually tossed aside the wooden stick in her hand and confidently assured, "Ran'er, don't worry, go quickly, we will definitely inform you in time!"

Xiao Ran nodded slightly in acknowledgment, then turned her gaze to Master Qi.

Master Qi said simply, "Don't worry."

Seeing that Master Qi had made a promise, she turned around and ran away with Xiao Lan without hesitation.

Que'er glanced at the fallen guard, wrinkled her nose, and asked Master Qi, who was standing nearby, "What should we do with this man?"

Master Qi kicked the guard, and seeing that he showed no signs of waking up, he sneered:

"That's it."

……

Meanwhile, Xiao Ran led Xiao Lan closer and closer to the house.

The surroundings of the house were rather quiet; although it was a restricted area, it wasn't as strict as I had imagined. Under the cover of night, a few rays of moonlight occasionally shone through the gaps in the tiles, weaving across the ground like silver threads.

Xiao Ran stepped through the moonlight, but her face showed some doubt.

"Is this room locked?"

The door to the house not far away was tightly closed, and it was locked.

Xiaolan: "Well, my sister said she was grounded, but it's more like she was under house arrest."

After saying that, she gently knocked on the door.

A rustling sound came from the inner room, followed by a sharp, witty female voice.

"You eat right on time, but I can't stand to see you leave me alone."

Xiao Ran was somewhat surprised. She had thought that her older sister, Xiao Lan, would be similar to her, with a gentle nature. She hadn't expected her to be so shrewish and domineering.

However, if she were locked up here, she would probably turn out the same way, or even worse.

Xiao Lan's eyes reddened when she heard the voice, and she softly called out, "Sister...it's me, Xiao Lan."

The rustling sounds from the inner room grew louder, accompanied by the sound of utensils being knocked over.

The door was quickly opened a crack, revealing half of a woman's face.

"Xiao Lan! What are you doing here? Go back quickly, or they'll punish you!"

Xiao Lan immediately stepped forward, "Sister, it's okay, they won't find out about me... Sister, are you alright?"

As she spoke, her voice began to choke up.

From the inner room, Hanxiang reached out a slender hand and wiped away Xiaolan's tears, feigning composure.

"Why are you crying? It's not like you'll never see her again. Your sister will be released in a few days."

Seeing the determination in Hanxiang's eyes, Xiaolan asked, "...Really?"

Hanxiang did not respond, but simply pulled her hand back a little.

Then she looked at Xiao Ran: "Who is she?"

Xiao Lan then realized what was happening and introduced, "This is Sister Xiao. I was able to meet her because of her help."

Hanxiang nodded, but her eyes still held a hint of wariness.

Xiao Ran didn't speak, but listened quietly as the two sisters reminisced.

It took a stick of incense for Hanxiang to calm her sister down.

He gently stroked Xiaolan's face. "Alright, Xiaolan. Just do as I say, and the madam won't make things difficult for you."

Xiaolan grasped her hand in return: "Mmm!"

Hanxiang composed herself and changed the subject: "By the way, since there are no guards outside now, go and get that treasure from my sister's room."

"Which one?" Xiaolan suddenly seemed to remember something and blushed.

"Oh……"
