Time passed. It was akin to a moment but also akin to a century.
During her unconsciousness, Ye Wanwan had a dream.
In the dream, both Nameless Nie and her were in their youth and chasing each other while playing. Whenever she got into trouble, that boy would always stand up and stick up for her.
Sometimes, he’d beat the other person until they bled.
Other times, they’d flee in panic from his thrashing.
“Nameless Nie, you could’ve ignored me. Who told you to play the hero every single time?”
The girl coldly snorted as she looked at the ragged-looking boy wearing a t-shirt.
The boy smiled faintly. “Your martial arts skills are a lot weaker than mine. If I don’t help you, who else would help you? Don’t think that I want to stick up for you, but tch, who told you to be my younger sister?”
…
“Brother?!”
Suddenly, Ye Wanwan’s eyes shot open. Her body was soaked by her sweat.
Si Yehan was by her side. His expression turned complicated when he saw Ye Wanwan waking up.
Spray of Flowers and Taoist Devotee were looking at Ye Wanwan as though they wanted to say something but ended up not being able to speak a word.
“Ah-Jiu… where’s my brother?”
Ye Wanwan snatched Si Yehan’s warm hand, her expression helpless.
“Wanwan…”
Si Yehan didn’t know what to say.
Ye Wanwan’s helpless and panicked state was a thorn in his heart.
“Mommy…”
Tangtang, who was in the corner, swiftly dashed forward and hugged Ye Wanwan.
“Tangtang… Baby, tell Mommy… where’s your uncle?” Ye Wanwan tightly clutched her son, tears streaming from her eyes.
“Mommy… Uncle, he… he accepted a big job and went on a long trip…”
Tangtang’s voice was slightly trembling.
As Si Yehan watched Ye Wanwan and their son, Tangtang, his eyes coldly glinted.

Soon, Si Yehan sent a message to one of his Four Asuras, Heavenly Asura.
…
“Ah-Jiu… take me to your headquarters.”
A long while later, Ye Wanwan’s tears stopped. Her expression was frighteningly placid.
“Okay.”
Si Yehan finally nodded after much consideration.
…
On the way to Asura’s headquarters, Ye Wanwan was silent, blankly staring outside the window.
Si Yehan and Tangtang stayed next to her but didn’t say anything.
In the afternoon, the group arrived in Asura’s headquarters.
“Take me to Nie Linglong,” Ye Wanwan said.
Sensing Ye Wanwan’s abnormal state, Si Yehan wanted to accompany her during the interrogation, but Ye Wanwan refused.
In the end, Si Yehan could only stand guard near the prison so that he could rush over immediately if anything happened and assure no problems would arise.
Inside the prison:
When Nie Linglong, who was covered in bruises and wounds, saw Ye Wanwan, she sneered. “What? Even Asura can’t weasel any information out of you, but you think you can? You?”
“Do you think I came here to weasel information out of you?” Ye Wanwan’s bone-chilling gaze settled on Nie Linglong.
“Heh… I suddenly remember. Your garbage brother probably couldn’t withstand a poison like withered butterfly… How is he? Is he dead yet?” Nie Linglong mockingly looked at Ye Wanwan.
Ye Wanwan’s expression shifted.
Ye Wanwan didn’t waste any words and shot to Nie Linglong’s side. She ruthlessly punched the woman’s face, distorting it further.
