I was transported to the 1970s, and I became the most stylish kid in the whole compound.

Chapter 115 Boomerang

Sun Zhile reached out to push Luo Yan, but Luo Yan grabbed his arms and pulled him down to the ground. However, Luo Yan spun around in mid-air, turning from bottom to top, making Sun Zhile the cushion...

Sun Zhile was caught off guard and was thrown to the ground, howling in pain. Xiao Rong rushed over, pushed Luo Yan aside, and helped her grandson up.

Just as Xiao Rong pushed Luo Yan away, Luo Yan's small hand trembled, but Xiao Rong, whose mind was entirely focused on Sun Zhile, did not notice at all.

Upon hearing Sun Zhile's insults, Luo Shicheng rushed in and caught Luo Yan, who was rolling backward like a ball.

Luo Yan, who was caught by Luo Shicheng, burst into tears as if she were terrified.

Luo Yan did it very cleverly. From other people's perspective, it was Sun Zhile who tripped and fell down because he used too much force when he pushed Luo Yan. While falling, he also threw Luo Yan away.

Xiao Rong, who came to help Sun Zhile, not only failed to stop Luo Yan, but also pushed Luo Yan hard.

Luo Yan knew that Luo Shicheng would definitely come in to protect her, so to make the fall even harder, she touched the ground with her toes.

Of course, Luo Shicheng did not disappoint her and caught her in time.

Xiao Rong rubbed Sun Zhile's sore bottom and helped him slowly stand up.

Before Xiao Rong could even help Sun Zhile stand up straight, something fell off her with a thud.

All eyes turned to her, and Xiao Rong lowered her head, her expression changing drastically.

Sun Bailing was not fast enough to catch Luo Yan before Luo Shicheng caught her, but he noticed the situation the moment the jade pendant fell.

Without giving Xiao Rong any chance to destroy it, Sun Bailing reached out and grabbed the jade pendant, then stepped back.

He opened his palm, and there lay the familiar jade pendant...

Sun Bailing seemed to see the shy look on his wife's face as she took out a pair of jade pendants and placed the carved phoenix jade pendant in his hand, asking him to put it on her.

"Xiao Rong, Su Yin's jade pendant is on you. What else do you have to say?"

"It's not mine, and I don't know where it came from..." Xiao Rong hurriedly explained.

"You say you don't know, then why did something fall off you?"

Faced with Sun Bailing's questioning, Xiao Rong glanced blankly at Luo Yan, who was being held in Luo Shicheng's arms, and her eyes lit up.

"It was her, it must have been her who put it on me. An Xiaotong didn't wrong her back then, she stole the jade pendant, and now she's using it to frame me."

Xu Tianzhong, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.

"Do you have any evidence that it was Yan Yan? If not, you're framing her. On the contrary, we all saw the jade pendant fall off you."

When he previously identified Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong's rebuttal became a boomerang, spinning back and piercing Xiao Rong herself.

Xiao Rong was speechless.

Sun Bailing's face was ashen. "Xiao Rong, I'm giving you one last chance. Either tell me what happened back then, or I'll send you to jail for theft. The choice is yours."

Xiao Rong knew she couldn't escape, so she asked Sun Bailing.

"If I reveal what happened back then, can you promise not to pursue the matter?"

If pursuing the matter would lead to the same outcome affecting her sons, she might as well choose to go in.

Sun Bailing pondered for a moment and said, "I can let it go..."

Xiao Rong immediately pressed further, "Including Xu Tianzhong, you must not keep pressing him either."

Before Sun Bailing could speak, Xu Tianzhong said first, "I agree."

Xiao Rong still stared at Sun Bailing with unease.

Xu Tianzhong nodded to Sun Bailing.

He had failed in his mission back then, and now he was willing to do anything to make amends, as long as there was a chance to do so.

Sun Bailing glanced at Xu Tianzhong with a complicated expression, and then agreed to Xiao Rong's request.

Xiao Rong recounted what happened back then... Due to the turbulent times, Shen Suyin and Sun Bailing were forced to separate on the second day of their marriage. Sun Bailing went north, while Shen Suyin hid at the old nanny's house.

The old nanny's family lived in Tongxian County. After Shen Suyin arrived, she wanted to send a message to Sun Bailing, but she lost contact with Sun Bailing.

As Shen Suyin's good friend, Xiao Rong naturally received the news that Shen Suyin was temporarily staying in Tongxian. Just then, Xiao Rong thought that her husband's philandering had ruined the family business, so she wanted to take her child and go to her friend's place.

When Xiao Rong's husband found out, he also came to her side and went to Tongxian with her.

On the way, because they had to pass through Mopan Mountain, which was rife with bandits, the travelers traveled in groups. Xu Tianzhong saw that Xiao Rong was heavily pregnant and her husband was unreliable, so he took good care of Xiao Rong and her two children.

During their conversation, Xiao Rong learned that Xu Tianzhong was going to pick up Shen Suyin. She also noticed the dragon-carved jade pendant that Xu Tianzhong was wearing and recognized that it was designed and carved by Shen Suyin. Since she was worried about not having a presentable gift to offer when she went to Shen Suyin's place, she set her sights on Xu Tianzhong.

When they encountered bandits, Xiao Rong pushed Xu Tianzhong out to shield him from their attacks, and took the jade pendant while Xu Tianzhong was injured and unconscious.

But when she finally found the nanny's house that Shen Suyin had mentioned, Shen Suyin had already been taken abroad by the Shen family, leaving behind only an infant daughter for the nanny to take care of.

Xiao Rong's husband took a fancy to the nanny and conspired with the nanny to drive Xiao Rong away. In a fit of rage, Xiao Rong killed her husband and scared the nanny away.

It was the darkest hour before dawn. Xiao Rong killed someone without worrying about being held accountable. After much thought, she took the dragon-carved jade pendant and went to Sun Bailing, concealing the fact that Shen Suyin had gone abroad.

As for the baby, abandoned in an empty house amidst the chaos of war, it was basically a dead end.

To avoid being exposed, Xiao Rong didn't touch anything, even though the child had valuables on him.

That's why she said, 'Whoever has this jade pendant is a thief, and it has absolutely nothing to do with Shen Suyin.'

Do you know whose child Shen Suyin has?

"I don't know."

Having said all that, Xiao Rong couldn't possibly be lying, and Sun Bailing remained silent for a long time.

"How did that dragon-carved jade pendant end up in someone else's hands?" Xu Tianzhong asked.

Xiao Rong sighed, "On my way to seek refuge with Lao Sun, I was robbed by bandits again. Someone saved me. At that time, I was penniless and only had the jade pendant left. So I gave the jade pendant to him."

"What about that nanny? Have you seen her since then?"

Xiao Rong nodded, "Yes, I met him once more than ten years ago."

"Where does she live?" Sun Bailing asked urgently.

Xiao Rong lowered her eyes unwillingly, not wanting to look at Sun Bailing, whose heart was only for Shen Suyin, again.

"I only saw him from afar, and by the time I chased after him, he was long gone."

Is it in Jiangcheng or Tongxian?

Sun Bailing's question made Xiao Rong realize what was going on.

"It's not Tongxian, it's Jiangcheng."

Luo Yan kept her achievements hidden and enjoyed watching the drama unfold, but it was getting late and her eyelids started to droop.

Luo Shicheng wasn't interested in Sun Bailing's gossip, but after being forced to listen for so long, seeing that Sun Bailing had really let Xiao Rong go, he carried Luo Yan back to the ward for a short rest.

Luo Shicheng consulted the doctor and found that Xiaoxiu was basically fine, so he decided to take Xiaoxiu home with him and bring her back the next day.

When they arrived home, Luo Yan was already fast asleep, nestled on Luo Shicheng's shoulder.

Luo Shicheng put Luo Yan on the bed, and Hua Li took a warm towel to wipe Luo Yan dry and change her into pajamas.

After taking a shower, Xiao Xiu stood at the door for a while, watched Luo Yan, and said goodnight to Hua Li and Luo Shicheng before finally going to bed peacefully.

Luo Shicheng remembered that Hua Li had said that the carved phoenix jade pendant did not belong to Liu Jingqiu, but he was not comfortable asking Hua Li how he knew, so he told Hua Li everything he had heard today.

Hua Li looked uninterested after listening, yawning and saying she was sleepy.

Seeing that Hua Li didn't seem to care, Luo Shicheng didn't say anything more and went back to his room to sleep.

Hua Li returned to her room, lay on the bed, and tossed and turned. In the end, she decided to maintain the status quo and not acknowledge anyone.
