"It must be because of staying up late!"

Ruan Tinghe shook her head, quickly wiped away the face that looked so much like Da Bao, stared at the black and white photo for a long time, and found herself at a loss for what to do.

It seems she can no longer recreate Shen Yan's appearance as a child!

My mind is filled with Da Bao's face!

"Forget it!" Ruan Tinghe sighed, "Anyway, he only asked me to draw a portrait of his sister, not to restore their photo!"

Just as dawn broke, Ruan Tinghe told the child to stay home and went directly to the police station.

She didn't have Shen Yan's contact information, so she could only ask Old Chen for help. Old Chen quickly found a young man with a cane.

"Xiao He, this is Comrade Li Bao. He suffered a serious leg injury during this mission and is unable to move easily, so he is staying here to recuperate. Is there anything you can say to him?"

"Comrade Ruan, hello! This mission really owes a lot to you. My teammates all know you have an exceptional memory and wanted to see what you look like, but I got to see you first!"

Li Bao had shaved his head, his skin was dark, and when he smiled, it looked like a cracked braised egg.

"It is my honor to serve the country and the people."

Ruan Tinghe touched her nose somewhat embarrassedly. It was far from having a superhuman memory; that was an exaggeration. She simply memorized images.

"By the way, I heard Comrade Ruan is looking for someone?"

"Hmm, you have someone named Shen Yan in your team, right?" Ruan Tinghe wasn't sure if Shen Yan, who was working undercover, was in the same team as these people.

"You're looking for Brother Shen? What's up? If it's nothing serious, I can help you with that."

"It's nothing, he just asked me to draw a picture for him, which I've already finished, but I don't know how to contact him."

Li Bao looked troubled. "This is difficult. Brother Shen just left yesterday. I heard it was because his son was hospitalized and his family told him to go back immediately."

A son? He actually has a son!

For some reason, Ruan Tinghe felt a pang of sadness upon hearing the news.

However, she quickly came to terms with it, realizing that they were just strangers who had met by chance!

"Yes, Brother Shen's son is already three years old, and his wife is beautiful too. No wonder Brother Shen is in a hurry to go back. If I had a wife and children waiting for me at home, I would crawl back even if I had to," Li Bao said enviously.

Ruan Tinghe didn't want to hear how happy and fulfilling other people's families were!

She took out the painting and handed it to Li Bao, saying, "Could you please pass this painting on to Comrade Shen for me?"

"What is this painting?" Li Bao opened it and saw a portrait of a girl and a badly damaged photograph.

Ruan Tinghe explained, "She is Comrade Shen's sister."

"A younger sister?" Li Bao exclaimed in surprise. "Brother Shen doesn't have a younger sister. I've never heard of him having one. He only has two older brothers; there are no girls in his family!"

Ruan Tinghe was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and an unnamed anger instantly ignited within her.

Oh, so you were just playing with her!

She doesn't seem to have offended him, does she? Why is he teasing her?

Is he too proud and doesn't like being dominated by women? Is he holding a grudge against her for being in control?

She was forced into it, okay? It's all because he's like a wooden doll, unable to make a sound or move!

Aside from that, Ruan Tinghe really couldn't think of anything she had done to offend him.

Surely they couldn't have deliberately created a difficult problem to test her drawing skills?

She even bandaged his wounds, and that's how he "repaid" her!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and Ruan Tinghe snatched back the painting and the photograph.

"I'll just hand it over to him myself!" she said through gritted teeth.

It's best to prevent her from ever seeing him again!

Ruan Tinghe stormed off; she had so much to do!

I quickly sold some items from my spatial storage on the black market, and also sold everything I could at home. I put everything I couldn't sell back into my spatial storage. With Lao Chen's help, all the procedures for going to Shanghai went very smoothly.

Two days later, she took her child and boarded a metal train.

This was her first time traveling far from home since she transmigrated, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, wondering whether a crisis or an opportunity awaited her ahead.

Children are much simpler; their little faces are full of curiosity about new things.

"Hey little girl, are you taking your younger brother and sister to visit relatives?"

An older woman with a blue floral headscarf suddenly handed me an apple. "Have you ever had one? This is an apple, it's delicious, take it and have some."

The aroma of apples was enticing, but the three little ones only glanced at them, shook their heads in refusal, and then went off to play their own games.

From a young age, they were taught by Ruan Tinghe not to eat anything given by strangers and not to go with strangers easily.

Ruan Tinghe hugged the three children and said cautiously, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary."

The woman explained, "Young lady, please don't misunderstand. I'm not a bad person. I just thought the three children were cute and reminded me of my beloved grandson, so I wanted to give them the apples."

Ruan Tinghe didn't believe it and hugged the child even tighter.

"No, you really don't need to. My child is allergic to apples."

The three little ones nodded in unison, "Yes, an allergic reaction!"

"Hehe, is that so? Would you like some oranges? I also have some milk candies, they're really delicious."

The old woman persisted, rummaging through her cloth bag until she pulled out a few candies and two crumpled oranges.

Ruan Tinghe had no idea what she was up to, but she had a bad feeling. She secretly took out a stun gun from her spatial storage and put it behind her back.

Seeing that Ruan Tinghe was no longer paying attention to her, the old woman lost her patience. Her eyes darted around, and after making sure no one was paying attention, she slammed the jade bracelet in her hand onto the seat with a sharp clang, and it shattered.

"Oh dear! My family heirloom! This is going to kill me! How could you be so naughty, little girl!"

Suddenly, the old woman sat down in the aisle, pounded her chest and stamped her feet, and started wailing as she pointed at Ruan Tinghe.

"Everyone, come quick! I kindly offered food to the little girl and the three children, but not only did she refuse it, she hit me and even broke my family heirloom bracelet! This is our family's most treasured heirloom, passed down through ten generations of only sons!"

"I didn't break it!" Ruan Tinghe retorted coldly.

The three children also protested, "Mom didn't break it. You broke it yourself!"

"You're such a bad guy, you're so evil!"

"Ah, ah..."

Sanbao stood with his hands on his hips, puffing out his cheeks and babbling something in a huff, which only Erbao could understand.

"Little sister, your words are too vulgar!" Erbao shook his head helplessly.

"Ouch!" The old woman slapped her thigh, tears streaming down her face. "She broke things and won't admit it! She thinks she can bully an old woman like me because she has no one to help her!"

"The bracelet is broken, and I don't want to live anymore. Just kill me!"

The farce quickly attracted many passengers to watch the spectacle, and those unaware of the truth were already pointing and whispering about Ruan Tinghe.

"This girl looks perfectly normal, how can she be so vicious? She even bullies the elderly."

"Is this bracelet made of jade? How much does it cost? This young lady is probably going to lose money!"

"Look at her, so young and raising three children, all so slicked-back. Could she be a capitalist's child?"

……

There are keyboard warriors everywhere who don't distinguish right from wrong!

Seeing everyone helping her, the old woman straightened her back even more, and glanced smugly at Ruan Tinghe with her drooping triangular eyes, looking like a petty person who had achieved her goal.

"Young lady, I won't make things difficult for you. You broke my bracelet, so you have to pay for it, right?"

Ruan Tinghe calmly said, "I have no money. Why don't we call the police?"
