Jiang Zhilan hesitated, wanting to say something, but she lowered her head.
Zhou Ran watched her, faintly sensing that Jiang Zhilan had something on her mind, yet brewing over whether or not to speak.
The two remained silent for a while before Zhou Ran broke the silence, "Achi is very fond of Chaomu, and he would listen to Xu Chaomu, regardless of whether it's right or wrong."
"Are you saying that if Xu Chaomu asked Achi to do something bad, Achi would do it?" Jiang Zhilan was skeptical.
"That's not necessarily the case," Zhou Ran replied. "I'm just saying that Xu Chaomu's words carry considerable weight."
Zhou Ran was still testing the waters; she observed the subtle changes in Jiang Zhilan's expression.
"There is no surveillance here, but the time the warden has given me isn't much, Zhilan. If you have any idea that could save the Bai Family, you could tell me; maybe I can help you," Zhou Ran stated bluntly.
