Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“After school yesterday, Nian Yue almost crippled his hand…” Nian Chaoyu sighed.” She’s so unruly…”
“Is Yue Yue injured?” This was the question that Old Master Nian was most concerned about.
Nian Yue was a little girl. She looked very young. He had seen that child from the Cheng family before. He was only 17 or 18 years old, but he had already grown to 1.8 meters tall. He was almost two heads taller than Nian Yue.
“Hmph, how could she be injured!” Nian Chaoyu laughed coldly.
In fact, he was so focused on dealing with the Cheng family yesterday that he didn’t notice Nian Yue’s condition at all.
Old Master Nian sighed and said, “Yue Yue has been left alone since she was young. It’s normal for her to be a little extreme… In the end, our Nian Family has let her down. If Li Shu was around, she would be as obedient as Li Shu…”
“Dad, why did you mention her?”
Nian Chaoyu frowned at the mention of Li Shu.
“Why? You let her down back then and I can’t even mention it?!” Old Master Nian was furious. “Tell me, what exactly is the matter?”
All these years, Nian Chaoyu would not visit unless he had something to discuss.
“Nian Yue moved out of the Nian Family and gave up the right of inheritance.”
“What did you say?!”
When Old Master Nian heard this, he almost fainted.
“Nian Yue refused to be disciplined and went against me. She even snatched the position of Zhang Wei’s disciple from Nian Yan. Do you think it’s possible for the Nian Corporation to groom a person like her?”
“Impossible!” Old Master Nian shook his head firmly. “Yue Yue would never do such a thing…”
“Dad, you’ve only seen Nian Yue a few times. How can you be so sure that she won’t do such a thing?” Nian Chaoyu sneered. “One may know a person for a long time but not their heart…”
“You’re here to create trouble for me, aren’t you?” Old Master Nian interrupted him. “Regardless of whether you agree or not, the right of inheritance belongs to Yue Yue…”
“Lam your biological son! If you give the inheritance rights to Nian Yue, who knows if Nian Yue is a child of the Nian Family?” Nian Chaoyu’s eyes were red with anxiety. He did not expect Old Master Nian to be so stubborn.
“Get lost!” Old Master Nian was enraged. He picked up his walking stick and hit Nian Chaoyu. “How can you imply that about Shu?! She must have been blind to have fallen for you!”
Nian Chaoyu evaded him, his voice full of dissatisfaction. “If she didn’t marry me, would she be able to live like a rich lady?! There’s still half a year left. Whether Nian Yue can get the inheritance will depend on her own ability!”
Nian Chaoyu scoffed and turned to leave.
Initially, he had wanted to plead with Old Master Nian and coax the inheritance rights of the Nian Family over.
However, from the looks of it now, the right to inherit the Nian Family was set in stone.
Old Master Nian was so angered by his words that he almost fainted. He could not understand what sin he had committed to have a son like Nian Chaoyu!
However, Nian Yue had suffered a lot. How could she be Nian Chaoyu’s match?
He only hoped that Nian Yue would not disappoint him.
‘As Old Master Nian looked at the document on the table, he fell into deep thought. His expression could not be seen clearly.
‘That document was everything Nian Yue had done since coming to Jiang City.
After Nian Chaoyu left Old Master Nian’s villa, his gaze was still deep.
When he said that Nian Yue had hit Cheng Du, Old Master Nian looked very shocked. This meant that he did not know about this matter.
But, who else could have protected Nian Yue, other than Old Master Nian?
Including the last time she had a dispute with Cheng Anran at school.
It seemed that he needed to investigate this daughter of his.

After school, Nian Yue packed her bag and Wang Zhizhi followed suit.
“Nianyue, wait for me.” Wang Zhizhi hugged her school bag tightly. After what happened yesterday, she did not dare to go home alone.
The cool girl stopped in her tracks. She grabbed her bag with one hand and leaned against the wall slowly. The light from the corridor shone down on her, giving her a golden glow.
‘Wang Zhizhi paused for a moment before following her.
‘The original two-person group had now become a three-person group. Lin Nan was a chatterbox while Wang Zhizhi was usually quiet. When Lin Nan spoke, only Nianyue would occasionally talk to him.
The trio looked exceptionally harmonious.
‘Wang Zhizhi was not planning to go home, so she followed Nian Yue to her new house. Nian Yue handed her the towel and pajamas. “Pack up first.”
‘Wang Zhizhi was already used to her style of doing things, so she went into the bathroom with the pajamas and towel she gave her.
Nianyue returned to her bedroom and turned on her computer. It was a new proposal.
‘The funds of the Lin Group were already in place. The most important thing was future development.
She sent the proposal to Old Master Lin. She didn’t care about what happened after that. Old Master Lin had been in power for so many years, so he could naturally grasp the main point of the proposal.
‘When Wang Zhizhi came out, she happened to see Nian Yue raising her hand slightly. A black fountain pen was already in her palm. Her slender and fair fingers held the fountain pen and spun it in a circle.
That hand was slender and fair, so fair that it was glowing.
‘When she saw Wang Zhizhi coming out, Nian Yue raised her eyes slightly, her gaze deep.
“You… know how to teleport things?” Wang Zhizhi’s face was filled with shock.
“Yes.” Nian Yue nodded her head. There was no ripple in her eyes. She had never thought of hiding anything from Wang Zhizhi.
Since she was on her side she would find out sooner or later.
“Actually, I went to Elder Xu’s banquet that day…” Wang Zhizhi took a deep breath.” I saw you attacking Nian Yan…”
‘There were too many people that day and almost no one noticed her in the comer.
Nian Yue looked straight at her. In an instant, the coldness made Wang Zhizhi shiver subconsciously.
“My getting close to you has nothing to do with this…” Wang Zhizhi shook her head. She only felt that Nian Yue only looked very cold, but once she got close to her, she would realize that she was a very good person.
Nian Yue leaned against the seat. Her posture was a little unruly. She snapped her fingers and the room suddenly tured dark.
‘Wang Zhizhi gripped her towel tightly but did not speak.
“Heh…”
After a long while, there was a soft sound in the air. Nian Yue’s lips twitched. The room had regained its brightness once again.
“Not afraid?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows.
This world was too different from the apocalyptic world she came from. Humans could only accept what they knew.
They had an extraordinary fear of the unknown.
“T’ve seen someone like you…” Wang Zhizhi took a deep breath.” Like you, he has powers that we don’t know about… but I’ve only seen him once…”
“What powers?”
Nian Yue continued to ask. She knew that there should be people in this world who had supernatural powers like her. She could sense them.
“He’s very fast…” Wang Zhizhi shook her head..” I’ve seen him appear hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.
