You're trying hard to hide yourself.
Xiao Ruanruan looked at Chen Danqing, raising her eyebrows slightly. Dealing with smart people can be quite comfortable at times, but it can also be really annoying at others, because they can't hide anything from others.
Since things had come to this point, Xiao Ruanruan said directly, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that even if you travel back in time, it's really hard to change anything."
“Like me, I came back, and I thought I had eliminated the threat to my family. But in reality, my brothers went through just as many life-or-death ordeals as they did. If it weren't for the help of others, my family would have been gone long ago.”
Moreover, even more than twenty years after I traveled back, when technology was much more advanced than it is now, I still couldn't control which point in time I traveled to.
The worst-case scenario is that, due to various factors while you're in the time machine, you might return with no memories whatsoever.

Xiao Ruanruan couldn't understand why she could see a sense of vicissitude in an eight-year-old girl, but Chen Danqing certainly looked weathered.

After a long silence, Chen Danqing nodded. "Okay, I'll talk to my grandfather."
After a pause, he continued, "I'm sorry for forcibly dragging you into this, but if you don't want to, I won't force you anymore."
Xiao Ruanruan felt a pang of sadness seeing Chen Danqing's pale face after saying those words, but she knew that in this situation, no amount of comfort from others would be of any use.
The only person who could possibly change Chen Danqing's mind was her brother, Chen Jie.
