When Ruan Ji fought with Xuanyuan Ye, he would be the first one to try and mend them, or to separate them if needed so that they won't hurt each other in a fit of anger.
She could still vividly imagine that one time when he took a slap on his face on behalf of Xuanyuan Ye, Ruan Ji was just being an immature brat, and the strike was hard enough to make him bleed.
Flustered after seeing the blood, Ruan Ji flew the scene not knowing what to do, leaving the two men behind.
It was also him who helped her break out of the jail afterwards, just before she got raped by the gangsters left behind by Ye Nuan to destroy her sanity and kill her.
Come to think of it, Ruan Ji never got the time to thank him for all the sacrifice he made for her.
Looking back now, Ruan Ji understood that she was wandering aimlessly like a headless chicken. Without any goal, any thoughts, until she felt everything go blank and she died.
"Madam, are you alriight?"
