At that moment, the only scene that emerged in Ruan Jiaojiao's mind was Ruan Chi being drowned by the murky river water. She ran without looking at the path ahead, nor did she notice anyone beside her as she dashed past.
She felt a sudden strong push from behind while running, and before she could react, she twisted her ankle and plunged headfirst downward.
Unfortunately,
directly below was a deep pit. Perhaps the water was shallow for an adult, but for Ruan Jiaojiao, who was not yet 1.2 meters tall, it was very deep. She fell headlong with no chance of suspense, sinking out of sight immediately.
This turn of events happened so swiftly that everyone saw it, but could not react in time. By the time they did, the looks on their faces had completely changed.
"Jiaojiao!"
"Little sister!"
"..." Countless heart-wrenching cries erupted at once.
