My older sister, born in the 1970s, stole my marriage; I took my three treasures and blew up the fam

Just then, a faint blue light appeared from behind the door. The shadowy figure noticed and turned to fight back, but felt a tingling and burning pain in his waist and abdomen, and his whole body was electrified, causing him to lose control of his body instantly.

With a thud, a heavy object fell to the ground, startling Ruan Tinghe, whose anxious heart finally settled.

There were thieves in the family compound!

Fortunately, she was awakened by the sound of the door lock turning and quickly hid behind the door, using a stun gun to stun the thief; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

She turned on her flashlight and shone it on the wall. By the light, she first glanced at the children on the bed. Fortunately, they were too tired during the day and were sleeping soundly, so she didn't make any noise to wake them up, otherwise they would have been frightened.

Then look at the little thief on the ground.

The beam of light fell on the thief's face, and Ruan Tinghe was stunned.

Why is it him again?

Did Shen Yan put a tracking device on her? How come we keep running into her wherever she goes?

Ruan Tinghe squatted down and angrily pinched his face, trying to wake him up, but the next second her wrist was grabbed.

She gasped in surprise and instinctively tried to escape, but was pulled by the wrist and stumbled into the man's strong arms, her red lips brushing against his cheek.

She looked up and met the man's deep eyes; her heart pounded wildly, almost bursting out of her chest.

Ruan Tinghe sat up and preemptively said, "Why are you following me? Just say what you want to steal! You don't need to scare me in the middle of the night!"

"I wasn't following you." Shen Yan hadn't expected to run into Ruan Tinghe here.

"Then why...?"

Before she could finish her question, she heard heavy footsteps coming from the stairs. The sound grew closer and closer, and a beam of light carried Grandma Qin's voice.

"Hehe, what happened?"

Ruan Tinghe stood up in a panic, with only one thought in her mind: she absolutely could not let Grandma Qin find out about Shen Yan!

"Quick, hide!"

In a flash, Ruan Tinghe suddenly pulled him up and hid him behind the door.

Grandma Qin arrived at the door at that moment and pushed it open to come in.

Ruan Tinghe quickly stepped out the door and closed it behind her.

"Grandma Qin, what's wrong?"

Grandma Qin grabbed her hand worriedly and asked, "I just got up to pee and I think I heard some noise upstairs. Is everything alright?"

The buildings of that era had very poor sound insulation; it must have been the sound of Shen Yan falling to the ground that caught Grandma Qin's attention.

Ruan Tinghe quickly waved her hand and lied, "It's nothing, I just remembered I needed to go to the bathroom and accidentally knocked over the kettle by the bed."

"Did you get burned?" Grandma Qin asked with concern.

"No, no, the spout is sealed tightly, there's no leak."

"That's good. We'll keep the kettle further away from now on, in case the child accidentally bumps into it."

Grandma Qin gave some instructions and wanted to go inside to check on the children, but Ruan Tinghe quickly pulled her downstairs.

"Grandma Qin, I really need to use the restroom, let's go together."

Ruan Tinghe deliberately lingered with Grandma Qin for a long time, afraid that Grandma Qin would see Shen Yan leaving.

When she slowly returned to her room, she found Shen Yan leaning against the door with one leg bent.

Why aren't you leaving yet?

She spoke in a low, breathy voice, afraid of making any noise that might disturb the child and Grandma Qin.

"I'm injured, do you have any medicine?"

Shen Yan lifted the corner of his shirt, revealing a patch of red, swollen skin on his abdomen, judging by its size...

Ruan Tinghe pointed at the piece of leather, recalling the electric shock she had received: "This couldn't be...?"

"You're the one who did it."

"This isn't my fault, is it? Who told you to be a petty thief instead of a decent human being!"

"I really didn't..."

The child inside suddenly rolled over, startling Ruan Tinghe, who quickly threw herself on him and covered his mouth. Her palms were warm, tingling and numb. She gestured for him to shut up and then pointed towards the stairs, telling him to wait there.

After he left, she went into the room and took out burn ointment from her storage space.

When he arrived at the stairs, he obediently sat down and waited.

Ruan Tinghe shoved the ointment into his hand, saying, "Apply this ointment and leave quickly. If you get caught, I can't save you."

"I'm not leaving," Shen Yan replied, while examining the plaster in his hand. "This medicine..."

When Ruan Tinghe saw him looking at the production date, she was so frightened that her alarm went off, and she snatched the medicine back.

"This is medicine that I had someone bring back from overseas." Seeing the product information on the ointment, Ruan Tinghe breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was all in a foreign language. Shen Yan, that rough man, probably wouldn't understand it, right?

Even if you understand it, you probably only glanced at it and didn't even see the production date line!

Ruan Tinghe was filled with regret; she had been so careless.

If someone sees that the production date is in the future, how should she explain it?

Shen Yan then recalled what Song Kaiyuan had said: she did indeed have a secret, but he still firmly believed that she was not an enemy agent.

She was just too naive; he trusted her, but others might not.

It would be very dangerous if someone discovered her secret.

So Shen Yan said meaningfully, "You should take these treasures out less often to use by others. They are not worthy. They are only for me to use."

Ruan Tinghe felt very guilty. She didn't even want to give it to Shen Yan anymore, let alone give it to anyone else.

However, since we've already taken it, if we take it back now, Shen Yan will definitely become suspicious.

So she pretended to be calm and shone the flashlight on the wound on his abdomen.

"Stop talking nonsense, finish applying the medicine and get out of here."

"You're going to help me?"

"I was afraid you'd steal my treasure!"

Ruan Tinghe arrogantly pressed her fingers, which were covered in ointment, hard against the red and swollen skin on his abdomen.

Hearing him gasp unexpectedly, her hand trembled, and she accidentally pressed it again.

"You want to murder me?"

"A little bit of electric shock, how could it kill you? You had such a big gash on your head before, and you could still run around in the streets."

Feeling guilty, Ruan Tinghe lightened her touch, her smooth fingertips gently caressing her skin, as tenderly as if a feather were brushing against it.

This injury wasn't really painful for Shen Yan, but he liked to tease her. Thinking about the time she hit him when he came in, he couldn't help but feel curious.

"What did you use to shock me when I came in?"

Ruan Tinghe pretended to take out a stun gun from her pocket, but actually took it out of her spatial storage.

"This was also brought back from overseas."

Ruan Tinghe demonstrated for him, "A stun gun for self-defense against thieves and wolves! But how come you woke up so quickly?"

"This little bit of battery power might be useful to petty thieves and perverts, but it's useless to me."

When Shen Yan was in the Red Gang, he was suspected of being an undercover agent. He was imprisoned and subjected to various forms of torture in an attempt to force him to confess to his undercover identity, including electric shocks.

The electric shocks used for torture are not the small toys that Ruan Tinghe is holding, but the kind of electric shocks that can kill a person if not controlled properly!

He took all the blame, which cleared him of suspicion.

"If I ever encounter a thief as deranged as you, am I doomed?"

Ruan Tinghe suddenly became worried, wondering if she should get some more powerful weapons and hide them in her spatial storage.

"No thief dares to come into the family compound." Shen Yan said helplessly, why did they still treat him like a thief?

"I'm really not a thief. I lived in this room for a while before."

"Huh?" Ruan Tinghe was a little confused. Wasn't this the Yin family's house? How come Shen Yan had lived here?

Shen Yan explained, "My family also lives in the family compound and we've known the Yin family for a long time. It's too late now, and if I go back, I'll disturb my family, so I'm planning to stay here for the night."

The main reason was that after finishing his work in Suzhou, he rushed back to Shanghai to pursue Ruan Tinghe. He was so tired that he could fall asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. He didn't have the energy to go back and deal with his mother and the woman at home. He just wanted to find a place to sleep first.

He knew that only Yin Quan had lived at home for a long time, while the others were either in the army or in the countryside, so he decided to stay for one night.

He had planned to use his connections to find Ruan Tinghe tomorrow, but by sheer coincidence, they ended up living in the same room.

"So that's how it is."

Suddenly, she remembered something.

"So you don't want to go back and wake up your wife and kids, so you come and wake me up instead?"
