"Xiao Han, how is Beijiang at home these days?" Expert Li asked when he saw Han Ruochen arriving at the centre.

When Han Ruochen heard his question, she simply opened the book that she was carrying with her and replied calmly, "Expert Li, I have recorded Beijiang’s attitude and performance of the past few days. It seems like Beijiang is getting better. His eyes are no longer as dazed as they were in the past; he is now paying more attention to the things around him. And he seems to be showing more concern by asking about how I am feeling and if I am okay. But currently it is limited to me..."

Expert Li was shocked when he looked at the notes that Han Ruochen had made in the little notebooks.

The child’s performance was recorded in detail in the notebook, and even the summary was clearly written under the title.

"This is very good." Expert Li praised with a nod. "Xiao Han, you are really attentive. Believe me, as long as you are attentive toward your brother, the intervention will have a very good effect."

Han Ruochen nodded. "Well, Expert Li, thank you for your wise words. I will definitely keep it in mind."

She then turned to look at Han Beijiang before saying to him, "Sister is going now. You stay with the teachers and listen to their lectures properly. And don’t go anywhere until I return to pick you up, no matter who comes to pick you up, okay?" Han Ruochen did not trust Han Ziyan or Meng Yunhan. The two of them were planning something, and Han Ruochen was worried that they would target Han Beijiang if they were pushed into a corner.

After all, a cornered dog would bite just about anyone.

What if those two women did something to Han Beijiang if she were not with Han Beijiang?

Han Beijiang nodded upon hearing the many instructions that Han Ruochen had given to him. He did not find his elder sister annoying because he knew that she was just worried about him. So, he agreed without any complaints.

Only then did Han Ruochen’s heart settle down, and she took her leave.

She took the bus back to the village and arrived at the docks with a straw hat on her head. However, as soon as she arrived at her boat, she realised that there was something wrong. She did not even see her boat when she was hijacked by a group of people.

"You are Han Ruochen?" The leader of the group of thugs was a young man who looked quite decent and had a clear haircut. He looked like he was around the same age as Han Ruochen. However, there was something different about the man. The man seemed to be smiling, but there was a strange look in his eyes that made Han Ruochen wary. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the man before asking, "And who are you?"

Since the man came looking for her, he must have already investigated her.

"You don’t need to know who I am." Yun Tao sneered as he slowly got to his feet. His fair and clear-skinned appearance should have given him a sunny and warm personality, but Han Ruochen sensed a sinister aura that made her feel uncomfortable. "Han Ruochen, I do not have the habit of hitting girls, but today I will teach you a lesson. If you don’t want to be beaten every time I see you, you’d better stop being a busybody and not interfere in the affairs of others. Keep away from those whom you should not have any contact with, or else!" He made a threatening gesture while looking at Han Ruochen.

The way he was looking at Han Ruochen was as if he were a venomous snake lying in a dark corner. This caused goosebumps to break all over Han Ruochen’s skin. She was slightly confused as she could not understand what this man wanted from her. And from his actions, it was clear that he was not going to tell her what his intentions were.

But she was not scared. After awakening the sea-scanning system, her strength had grown tenfold. She could easily take down these men if they were to attack her, but her eyes fell on the knives that they were holding in their hands, and her eyes flickered. She raised her head and looked at the men at the docks and cursed her luck. Other than Brother Wang, most of the people had gone to the sea, which meant that she had no help.

"Go and deal with her." Yun Tao was not going to get his hands dirty, and he had specifically chosen this time to come and attack Han Ruochen because he knew that no one would come to help her.

So even if Han Ruochen wanted to file a complaint, she would never be able to say a word. Because she did not even know who he was, and no one would help her find him.

"Young lady, don’t blame us. We are only doing our job." The thug sneered at Han Ruochen as he took a threatening step forward. He looked like a serious scum who did these things quite a lot.

When the thugs saw that Han Ruochen was a really good-looking woman, they turned to look at Yun Tao and shared a look with him. They wanted to enjoy their time here since they had already come here.

A corner of Yun Tao’s mouth curled up. He waved his hand languidly and said, "You can do whatever you want. As long as the lesson is deeply embedded in her head."

"Then we won’t be polite." The leader of thugs rubbed his hands together and turned to look at Han Ruochen again. He said to her, "Miss, you can only blame yourself for being unlucky. Who asked you to be so foolish? Now you have to pay for your stupidity!"
