Chapter 82: The Truth About the Past
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The training system and training methods inside were too similar to those of the army. He had no doubt that this was specially used for military training.
Although Nian Yue always seemed to be unrestrained, he was still always stunned by how strong her self-discipline was.
“Thave.” Nian Yue narrowed her eyes. There was a flash of darkness in her eyes, but those eyes were as deep as ink, making it difficult to understand what she was thinking at that moment.
“But you… aren’t even 18 yet…” Lin Nan muttered.
The country’s army only enrolled recruits who were 18 years old.
However, Nian Yue was only 17 years old this year.
“Let’s go.” Nian Yue waved it off and took the lead.
She had no absolute loyalty to this world, much less her faith.
She would not retread the path she took in her previous lifetime.
Even if she was alive, she lived for herself.
Not as the commander of the post-apocalyptic world.

The days passed uneventfully again. During gym class, Nian Yue crossed her arms and leaned nonchalantly against the railing. She was holding a document in her hand and reading it carefully.
This was the information that Wang Zhizhi had investigated for a few days regarding Li Shu.
The information about Li Shu before she turned 18 was blank, but Wang Zhizhi found a photo of her before she turned 18. In the photo, Li Shu was gentle and generous, wearing a white dress and an innocent smile.
Nian Yue had never seen Li Shu. Ever since she returned to the Nian Family, there had been no photos of her.
There were no photos of the family from the start.
Her impression of Li Shu was still that of a woman lying on the operating table and almost losing her life in the video Wang Zhizhi investigated.
How could a man like Nian Chaoyu be worthy of her?
“She should be from the Li family…” Wang Zhizhi held her chin and guessed.” Her photos before she turned eighteen have been encrypted. There was no other information. Other than the Li family, no one else should have such power…”
However, she was only married to Nian Chaoyu. Why did the Li Family encrypt all her information?
Or could it be that Li Shu had an unspeakable secret and that was why she was so protected?
Could it have something to do with this body?
Nian Yue raised her eyebrows. If that was the case, it made sense that she had been thrown into the countryside from the moment she was born.
“Lalso noticed something else…”
‘Wang Zhizhi continued, “I found something new about the doctor you asked me to investigate.”
Nian Yue kept the information and seemed to be interested in her words. “Wang Meihua’s people?”
“How did you know?” Wang Zhizhi was surprised. “When I was flipping through the information, I accidentally found out that he was in contact with Wang Meihua. However, Wang Meihua was the top hostess of a nightclub at that time…”
The top hostess of a nightclub?
Hearing this name, Nian Yue sneered. Only such a woman could get close to Nian Chaoyu.
“However, she changed her name and married into the Nian Family.” Wang Zhizhi sighed.
Nian Yan was a few months older than Nian Yue. When Wang Meihua married over, she brought Nian Yan, who was almost a year old.
At that time, Nian Yue had already been thrown into the countryside.
“Are you… looking for trouble with the Nian Family?” Wang Zhizhi asked with difficulty.
She knew Nian Yue’s personality. If everything she investigated was accurate, Li Shu had bled profusely on the operating table at that time. Someone might have done it on purpose.
And that person was Wang Meihua.
After causing Li Shu’s death, she became the Young Madam of the Nian Family.
“There’s no hurry now.” Nian Yue had one hand in her pocket. Her face was as cold as ever, but her eyes were as deep as ink.
Ina dilapidated alley, a middle-aged man was stooping to pick up trash with his head lowered when a shadow suddenly shrouded his body. The man hurriedly raised his head and saw a girl with a jade-like face. She had one hand in her pocket and her entire body was cold.
“You are…” That person said with difficulty.
It was as if he had not spoken for too long. The moment he opened his mouth, he realized that his throat was extremely hoarse.
“Doctor Wang, do you know her?” Nian Yue was holding a photo in her hand. The woman in the photo was gentle and generous.
‘When he saw the photo, the person’s face was filled with fear. He retreated uncontrollably. “I don’t know what you’re talking about?”
So much time had passed since that incident. He had already gotten away from it. Why would anyone still come looking for him?
“Wang Meihua…”
The girl spoke calmly, but her eyes were so sharp that he had nowhere to hide!
Doctor Wang seemed to have been agitated by something, his eyes turning red. “Why do I need to talk about that bitch?! If not for her, I wouldn’t have ended up like this!”
If Wang Meihua had not found him and asked him for help, he would not have taken up the surgery and gotten into a car accident on his way home!
He was lucky enough to have survived, but when he returned, he realized that he had already been registered with a death certificate!
“Do you know Nian Chaoyu?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows and continued asking.
‘When that person heard Nian Chaoyu’s name, his heart skipped a beat. His gaze towards Nian Yue became more guarded. “Who are you?”
“Guess.”
The comers of Nian Yue’s lips twitched and a smile suddenly appeared in her eyes.
‘The man was stunned by her smile and ran away immediately!
However, his ankle suddenly hurt and he fell forward uncontrollably!
Footsteps could be heard in front of him. A dagger had appeared in the hands of the aloof girl. The dagger made her face look even more cold. “Did you perform Li Shu’s surgery?”
Li Shu.
It had been too long since someone had mentioned this name.
*
Ina private room, Wang Meihua was still carrying a number of bags. When she saw the man opposite her, she looked a little impatient. “Why are you looking for me?”
The engagement ceremony between the Nian Family and the Chen Family would take place next month. Although Nian Yan’s reputation was not good, she had slept on the same bed as Chen Yiran and they were caught red-handed. No matter how unhappy Chen Yiran was, he had to commit to the
marriage.
It was precisely because she was certain of this that Wang Meihua had been so pleased these few days. With the Chen family as her stepping stone, she would only go further in the future.
“Where’s Nian Yue’s blood?” The man opposite her sneered.
How could he not understand Wang Meihua’s intentions?
It was both foolish and superficial.
“She has moved out of the Nian Family. I can’t find a chance to get close to her…” Wang Meihua replied extremely unwillingly.
In reality, she had almost forgotten everything.
She was so immersed in the joy of the Nian Family’s engagement with the Chen Family that she had forgotten about Nian Yue.
“I gave you two months, but you haven’t settled any…” The man sneered and looked at her disdainfully.
His eyes were like a poisonous tongue, wrapping around her body, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.
“You can’t blame me for this…”
Wang Meihua shivered under his venomous gaze. She even spoke more carefully.
“She’s Li Shu’s biological daughter…” Wang Meihua swallowed hard and continued to explain,” I’ve secretly done a DNA test on her…”
Furthermore, she was there when Li Shu gave birth.
She had seen Li Shu die on the operating table with her own eyes. She had personally thrown her daughter into the countryside for more than ten years without any concern for her.
“Do you think I don’t know?” The man glanced at her coldly, his voice filled with scorn.
“Then you…” Wang Meihua’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at the man in disbelief.” You suspect that Nian Yue is not Nian Chaoyu’s biological daughter?! ”
“You’re not too stupid after all.” The man sneered.
Nian Chaoyu was really pitiful. He had married two women one after another and both appeared to have made him a cuckold.
“How is that possible…”
In Wang Meihua’s memories, Li Shu would always be like a well-bred young lady. Even when she was pregnant and saw Nian Chaoyu with Wang Meihua, she had never cursed at her despite looking like she had suffered a huge blow.
Li Shu should have an extremely good personality. Why would such a woman cheat on Nian Chaoyu?
“Ican’t count on you.” The man could not be bothered to say anything else to her.
Since he couldn’t count on Wang Meihua, he would do it himself.

The next few days passed peacefully.
‘When Lin Nan had nothing to do, he would follow behind Nian Yue and ask her for guidance.
Nian Yue would occasionally give him some pointers. If she could not stand it anymore, she would personally teach him through a fight.
Although it was only a week or two, Lin Nan had improved rapidly under Nian Yue’s personal guidance.
When Nian Yue went to eat lunch in the afternoon, Lin Nan and Wang Zhizhi sat opposite her. There were only a few pieces of tomato egg on Nian Yue’s plate, and only half a bowl of rice.
Lin Nan had known Nian Yue for a long time and realized that she was quite picky with her food.
She rarely ate meat. Even when she ate a lot, it depended on her mood.
She did not even like fries and milk tea which were a favorite with girls.
The longer he interacted with her, the more he realized that Nian Yue was quite different.
She almost didn’t like anything that girls liked. She would always be in a white shirt and black pants. Even her way of doing things was sometimes like a boy’s.
She would not talk things through if it was something that could be resolved by violence.
If not for that attractive face, he would have suspected that Nian Yue was a man deep down.
“What’s the matter?” Nian Yue glanced at him.
“No, no.” Lin Nan hurriedly shook his head.
Wang Zhizhi finished the vermicelli in her bowl and saw that there was still a lot left on Nian Yue’s plate. “Yue Yue, you’ll be malnourished if you’re picky…”
Nian Yue was still growing. She remembered that Nian Yue was less than 1.6 meters tall when she first arrived. In just two months, she had grown by a minimum of five centimeters.
However, she did not eat much.
“Oh, I forgot,” Nian Yue replied casually and finished the food on her plate.
In her eyes, food was just something to wrap around her stomach. As for whether it was delicious or not, she did not seem to care much about it.
‘When Nian Yue came to the canteen, it was usually when the students in the class had almost returned to class.
Because she liked quietness, there were almost no people when she came to the canteen.
This was the first time she had come over during peak hours.
‘When the other students in the canteen saw her, they looked over curiously.
Some people even took out their phones to secretly take photos.
Nian Yue’s face was too attractive. In the past, when Nian Yan was the school belle, these people only felt that her face was indeed good-looking, but they kept feeling that something was missing.
However, after Nian Yue transferred over, this group of people realized that even Nian Yan could not compare to her.
Compared to Nian Yan’s beauty, it was obvious that Nian Yue’s beauty was more intense.
This was clearly appealing to everyone.
Nian Yue lowered her head and ate her food. She did not even look up at the whispers of her classmates.
This face was as attractive as her face in the post-apocalyptic world. However, it was obvious that this face was much younger and prettier.
After eating, the three of them went back to class. When they reached the campus, Lin Nan went back to class first.
Wang Zhizhi and Nian Yue decided to go to the supermarket to buy things. When the two of them came out with hot milk, they were stopped by someone.
“Nian Yue?”
Cheng Du was the one who was trying to block Nian Yue’s way. The last time, he had been beaten up by Nian Yue and had been hospitalized for half a month. Today, he had just been discharged from the hospital and came to school.
Seeing that it was him, Wang Zhizhi’s face instantly tumed pale.
“You go back first.” Nian Yue turned around and instructed Wang Zhizhi.
*
By the time Nian Yue returned to her class, it had only been ten minutes. Nian Yue sauntered in from the back door in her school uniform and sat down at her seat.
Duan Yu was already used to her sloppy attitude. At least she did not skip class. She was quite relieved.
‘Wang Zhizhi’s face was a little pale. When she saw Nian Yue return, the worry in her eyes was obvious.
“Tm fine.” Nian Yue waved her hand to reassure her.
Then, she took off her school uniform and laid on the table to sleep.
‘When she woke up, it was already three or four in the afternoon. The second two periods were self-study and the class was noisy.
No.1 Middle School had two days off and the last two lessons on Friday afternoon were self-study.
Nian Yue had just woken up and looked a little tired.
A classmate asked her a question and Nian Yue casually answered.
After she finished speaking, she saw someone standing at the classroom door.
‘When they saw the person at the classroom door, the entire class fell silent simultaneously.
It was Cheng Du.
It was said that Nian Yue had beaten him up until he was hospitalized. He had stayed in the hospital for more than half a month and had just come to school today.
But looking at the bandaged wound on his head, it did not look like he had been discharged from the hospital.
As if he did not see the shocked expression of the entire class, he walked in.
Nian Yue, who was sitting in the last row, did not even look up when she saw him.
“Nian Yue…”
He stopped in front of her and was about to say something when he saw Lin Nan coming back from the back door to drag him out!
‘When he returned home at night, Father Cheng saw the wound on his face. “You fought with her again?”
a
He scratched his head in frustration.
Could he say that it was because he saw Nian Yue at school today and wanted to apologize to her on the advice of his father? Before he could do it, however, he was beaten up by her again..
