Soon, the news that Ruan Tian had been locked in the basement by the madam reached the other survivors in the base.

Although Li Canhua expected Ruan Tian to be arrested, she was still overjoyed to the point of ecstasy after hearing it with her own ears!

Li Canhua pulled Xu Jia along, her expression showing a hint of schadenfreude.

"I knew it! How could Madam tolerate Ruan Tian's outrageous behavior in the base?"

Upon seeing Ruan Tian's arrest, Xu Jia became like a weather vane, completely abandoning any of his previous resentment towards Li Canhua.

She quickly continued to fawn over Li Canhua, pulling her hand and saying ingratiatingly:

"Miss Canhua, you're amazing! You foresaw everything. But Ruan Tian brought this upon herself!"

The two of them huddled together and went on and on about Ruan Tian, ​​saying every bad thing they could think of.

Finally, Li Canhua stopped, seemingly still wanting more, and said:

"Brother Bai probably doesn't know about this yet. I'll go and tell him!"

In Li Canhua's mind, Ruan Tian was a bad woman who only knew how to seduce her brother Bai.

"Brother Bai is kind-hearted, that's why he didn't stoop to Ruan Tian's level. I'm going to save Brother Bai!"

Li Canhua left without hesitation. She found Bai Chulan, who was treating the wounds of returning injured soldiers.

“Brother Bai!” Li Canhua didn’t notice the tired expression on Bai Chulan’s face.

She walked quickly to Bai Chulan's side, affectionately took his arm, and said in a coquettish tone:

"Do you know that Ruan Tian was locked in the basement by the madam?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Chulan's pupils constricted, and she abruptly stopped treating the wounded.

Upon seeing Bai Chulan's reaction, Li Canhua immediately realized that he definitely didn't know the news, and instantly became even more smug.

"Ruan Tian is a liar. Madam locked her up. She'll never bother you again!"

Bai Chulan didn't listen to what Li Canhua said after that. He straightened up and pushed Li Canhua's hand away.

"I thought this day would come soon, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."

He was at a loss for words; his usually calm heart was now filled with indescribable feelings.

When he sees Ruan Tian again, will she still be the Ruan Tian he remembers?

Bai Chulan was unsure and felt a little dizzy, so she took two steps back.

Li Canhua noticed Bai Chulan's sensitive emotional fluctuations. She thought Bai Chulan was happy, which was why her eyes looked strange.

"Brother Bai, aren't you super happy? You'll never have to see that bitch Ruan Tian again!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Chulan slowly came back to his senses. He suddenly lowered his head and stared at Li Canhua for a long time with his amber eyes.

At first, Li Canhua was a little shy when facing Bai Chulan's gaze.

But soon, the smile faded.

Because this was completely different from the Bai Chulan she remembered.

At this moment, Bai Chulan's eyes held no trace of a smile, but rather a hint of inexplicable coldness.

The Bai Chulan in Li Canhua's memory was not like this.

"Brother Bai..."

She released Bai Chulan's arm somewhat helplessly, feeling apprehensive, and whispered:

Why are you looking at me like that?

Bai Chulan didn't answer her question. Instead, she asked, "Canhua, do you like me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Canhua nodded firmly. Seeing that Bai Chulan had asked such a question, she gradually felt relieved.

"Of course I like you! You're my favorite person!"

But to everyone's surprise, Bai Chulan laughed after hearing those words.

The laughter carried a strange undertone of sarcasm.

Li Canhua thought Bai Chulan didn't believe her, and immediately panicked, trying to explain herself:

"I really like you! Brother Bai, why don't you believe what I'm saying!"

Bai Chulan simply lifted her foot and walked towards the door. From an angle where Li Canhua couldn't see her, the smile on her face had already faded.

Li Canhua liked Bai Chulan when he was wearing a mask.

Instead of the real Bai Chulan.

Li Canhua didn't understand what Bai Chulan was thinking, but she immediately chased after him and started chattering behind him.

.

Ruan Tian spent several peaceful days alone in the basement.

During this time, fearing that Ruan Tian would run away, the lady arranged for a man from Northeast China to come and watch over her.

On the first day, Ruan Tian and the Northeastern man were still a little shy with each other and didn't say much to one another.

The next day, the two had some conversations, but had not yet let their true natures run wild.

By the third day, the two had become familiar with each other and started calling each other brother and sister.

So when the lady arrived at the basement, she could hear Ruan Tian and the Northeastern man's hearty laughter from afar.

They were unaware that the lady had arrived and was chatting casually.

"Big brother, you don't know this, but I actually have superpowers!"

The older brother scoffed, "What kind of superpower is that? I can even do the Yangko dance. Do you even know how to do the Yangko dance?"

Ruan Tian didn't know how to do the Yangko dance, so she racked her brains to think of something she could use to defeat her older brother.

"I can make the lady laugh in exasperation!"

Ruan Tian's eyes lit up, and she immediately found her brother's weakness.

"Wow! You actually managed to make Madam laugh? But what's so impressive about that?"

The elder brother refused to admit defeat: "I can still get my wife to sing!"

"I can get your wife to dance ballet!"

"Pshaw, I can even get the lady to dance the cha-cha!"

The two argued for a long time, and finally ended with Ruan Tian saying, "I can let the lady eat poop," which successfully made the lady, who was hiding in the corner eavesdropping, push her wheelchair out herself.

The lady was truly amused by Ruan Tian's words.

When Ruan Tian and the Northeastern man saw the lady arrive, they immediately fell silent.

Why aren't you two saying anything? Keep talking.

The lady glared at Ruan Tian, ​​already quite angry, but after seeing that Ruan Tian, ​​who had been in the basement for the past few days, not only didn't look haggard, but her face had even become rounder and more radiant...

She became even angrier.

The lady directly changed Ruan Tian's guard location. This time, the lady went even further and replaced her with a mute.

This mute man was dull-witted, timid, and cowardly, and also afraid of death.

Madam, don't you believe that Ruan Tian can chat with a mute person?

The lady was extremely confident that as long as no one was there to talk to Ruan Tian, ​​she didn't believe the girl could continue to be happy.

Three days later, the lady went to the basement again.

.

This time, she witnessed what it meant to be shameless and invincible.

Ruan Tian is playing Connect Four with a mute man.

Taking advantage of the fact that the other person couldn't speak, Ruan Tian immediately took back her move.

Seeing that she was about to die, she quickly retrieved the chess piece.

"Oh dear, I don't want to get off here anymore, you don't have any objections, do you?"

The mute: "..."

What opinions could he possibly have?

He was just a poor little mute!
