Chapter 81: Does Your Wrist Still Hurt?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was no one she knew in this era.

An indiscernible depth flashed past her eyes. Nian Yue bent down to pick up her school blazer and put it on. She turned around and asked Wang Zhizhi, “Are you done with your work?”

‘Wang Zhizhi kept the shock in her heart and turned around to pack her things before leaving with Nian Yue.

She and the study committee member were responsible for writing and beautifying the text. Since she had finished her work, she could leave.

On the other hand, the study committee member who had not said anything looked at the two of them leave with a complicated expression.

*

Nian Yue and Wang Zhizhi had agreed to go to the hospital that day. Madam Wang had been hospitalized for a period of time and her condition was improving.

Nian Yue had one hand in her pocket and her backpack was casually slung over her shoulder. She looked a little nonchalant.

‘Wang Zhizhi thought about what Nian Yue had drawn today. When she walked out of the school gate, she could finally ask openly, “Nian Yue, did you draw a story about a battlefield today?”

Although Nian Yue said that it was a language, she believed that it was a real battlefield.

On the battlefield, there were people who risked their lives to resist. That was because they had faith and hope in their hearts. More importantly, they had their loyalty to their country.

“Yes.”

Nian Yue nodded. There was no need for her to hide anything from Wang Zhizhi.

Everything she had drawn on the blackboard today was real.

She had experienced all the stories herself.

‘Wang Zhizhi was not a talkative person. She knew that Nian Yue had a cold personality, so she did not continue asking.

‘When they arrived at the hospital, Madam Wang was packing her things. When she saw the two of them coming in, her face was filled with smiles. “Yue Yue, it’s great to see you here!”

“Yeah.”

Nian Yue nodded. Madam Wang liked her a lot and asked her a lot of things.

Although Nian Yue had a cold personality, she still answered Madam Wang’s questions truthfully.

“Mom, you’re too enthusiastic…” Wang Zhizhi interrupted.

Nian Yue had a bad temper. Other than her and Lin Nan, no one else in the class dared to provoke her.

She was really afraid that Madam Wang would be too enthusiastic and put her off.

It was only when they left that Nian Yue reached out to touch Madam Wang. There was already a faint blue glow around her.

Madam Wang’s physical fitness was much better than before.

It seemed her last potion had worked. Nian Yue narrowed her eyes when she heard this news. It was unclear what she was thinking.

After settling Wang Zhizhi and Madam Wang down, Nian Yue came out of the Wang’s family residence. The sky was already dark. There was a round moon hanging in the dark night sky, looking blurry and dreamy.

Her figure was a little cold as she tured around slowly. She was still fiddling with her phone and a mocking smile appeared on her lips. “You’ve been following me for a few days and you don’t have anything to say?”

She was a little lazy and could turn a blind eye to some things. However, sometimes, if some went overboard, she would not be too apologetic about being blunt!

The street lamps above her were bright and blinding. Nian Yue weighed the phone in her hand and suddenly threw it around the corner!

The place she had thrown the phone towards was coincidentally at the corner of the alley. It was pitch black there and one could not even see their own fingers.

“Hiss…”

Around the corner, a figure finally appeared. A man in black was swinging his hand.

Below his wrist, something seemed to have snapped.

Lu Jiang came out of the dark with a dark expression. “Why did you do that?”

He had been following Wang Zhizhi for a while and did not find any useful information. Just as he was about to leave, he saw that Nian Yue had gone to the hospital with Wang Zhizhi today.

He happened to see Nian Yue lowering her head. When she touched Madam Wang, there was a light blue glow in her palm.

He seemed to have seen that kind of light before!

With this doubt, he had only followed Nian Yue for a short distance when he was discovered ten minutes later!

“Did anyone tell you…”

Nian Yue had one hand in her pocket and her jade-like side profile was filled with coldness. She raised her right hand slightly and the phone that had sunk into the wall due to the huge impact had returned to her hand.

“When tailing someone, you should know better than to give yourself away.”

Nian Yue crossed her arms and her eyes were cold.

“It’s none of your business!” Lu Jiang said angrily, but because of the pain on his wrist, his face was a little contorted.

“Your wrist has been dislocated. Can you fix it?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows and the smile on her lips was a little devilish.

Lu Jiang’s expression froze when she saw through his thoughts.

“Bring me there.” Nian Yue was the first to walk away.

Lu Jiang looked at her back view and subconsciously obeyed her orders. Halfway through, he could not help but feel frustrated.

She was just a little girl. Why did he have to listen to her?

When the two of them arrived at the Lu Family’s medical center, Nian Yue looked up at the signboard and walked in.

Old Master Lu was studying medicine with his head lowered. When he saw her, he put down the medical book in his hand and saw Lu Jiang walking in with her.

“Grandfather.”

Lu Jiang shouted with a black face, his right hand still hanging by his side.

“You are…”

Old Master Lu sized her up from head to toe; he did not realize that his tone was mixed with respect.

“I’m here to get some medicine from Old Master Lu.” Nian Yue’s lips twitched and the silver token was in her hand.

The silver token was not big and was not even half the size of her palm. When she held it in her palm, it glowed.

The moment Lu Jiang saw the token, his pupils constricted and his face was filled with shock. However, he quickly concealed it. “Lu Jiang, get out.”

“Grandfather?”

Lu Jiang had been following Nian Yue all the way and his wrist hurt so much he felt it was no longer his. Now that he finally had the chance to see Nian Yue’s background, was he going to be chased out by Old Master Lu?

Lu Jiang wanted to say more, but when he saw Old Master Lu’s expression, he walked out obediently.

“Please.”

Old Master Lu made an inviting gesture and invited her into the room.

The Lu family’s medical center was decorated in an ancient style. Along the way, the air was filled with the faint smell of Chinese herbs.

Unlike refined Chinese medicine, the herbs emitted their own scent.

Old Master Lu invited her into the room and filled a cup of tea for Nian Yue. “May I take a look at this token?”

“Sure.”

Nian Yue passed the token to him. Old Master Lu took it and flipped it over. His palm slid across it slightly and a faint blue light shone on it.

It was that feeling!

Old Master Lu couldn’t hide his excitement. “Are you from a secret family?”

“No.” Nian Yue shook her head. She had no interest in the secret family that he mentioned. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and asked, “Can you find these herbs?”

She passed Old Master Lu a piece of paper with the names of a few herbs written on it.

Old Master Lu took the paper and took a few glances at it before nodding. “Sure.”

“Please bring me a few sets.” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows.

“Okay.”

Old Master Lu nodded and went to the pharmacy to get the herbs.

Lu Jiang walked over and sneered at her. “Where did you get the token?”

Nian Yue’s personality was too cold, almost like that person.

But no matter how similar she was, she was not him.

Besides, with that person’s personality, how could he have given her something so important?

Therefore, he had no doubt that this token was stolen by Nian Yue.

“I didn’t steal or snatch it.” Nian Yue glanced at him and said coldly.

‘There were really a lot of childish people in this world.

“You…”

Lu Jiang was angered by her unhurried attitude.

“Your wrist doesn’t hurt anymore?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows.

Lu Jiang’s thoughts were exposed by her. His face turned pale and then purple. In the end, he turned around angrily and left.

Old Master Lu found the herbs and passed them to her. “The Lu family has other rare herbs. When you want them, you just have to let us know.”

Nian Yue took the herbs and took a few glances at them. “Thank you.”

It was only when she left that Lu Jiang entered angrily. “Grandfather, she could have stolen that token. Why would that person give her something so important?”

“Why are you getting worse…” Old Master Lu was so angry that he glared at him. “You were tortured so badly that you didn’t even dare to say a word. Now you’re throwing a tantrum…”

Lu Jiang almost fainted from anger.

He had only seen how casually the girl threw the phone. He had also casually grabbed it, but he did not expect the impact to be so strong. Not only did he not manage to grab the phone, but his wrist had also been injured by her!

Oa

Lu Jiang’s face turned pale. What Old Master Lu said made sense. He had indeed been beaten so badly by her that he didn’t even have the chance to retaliate.

*

It was pitch black in the dark. Nian Yue raised her hand slightly and all the herbs were floating in the air.

‘These medicinal herbs were originally dried up, but as she exerted a little force in her hand, all the medicinal herbs began to glow with a faint layer of blue light. The blue light gradually turned into a faint green light and the volume of the medicinal herbs doubled.

After an unknown period of time, all the medicinal ingredients had been mixed into one, turning into a few black pills.

Nian Yue raised her hand slightly and all the pills landed in her palm.

Her wood-elemental power seemed to be the only thing that could nourish the herbs.

Hers was a type of natural power in the post-apocalyptic world. Electric power was her main power, and wood power was only her support.

Therefore, although she had the ability to repair plants and manipulate plants, she was not good at it.

Even the potions she cultivated could only be considered average.

‘The herbs from the Lu family were different from the herbs cultivated in the laboratory by supernatural powers and various kinds of hybridization. The efficacy was too different.

Therefore, while these potions could help to treat Madam Wang’s illness, they wouldn’t have full efficacy.

If Madam Wang were to be completely cured, she would have to combine the pills with Western medicine.

Her fair and slender fingers rubbed her temples and a deep look flashed past her eyes.

She thought of the secret family mentioned by Old Master Lu today.

Could it be related to the mother of this body?

Li Shu?

‘When Nian Chaoyu was young, he fell in love with Li Shu at first sight. While he was as playful as he was talented, Li Shu was an innocent young lady back then who was ignorant of the ways of the world and focused on marrying Nian Chaoyu.

However, Nian Chaoyu was reluctant to leave the field. When Li Shushu gave birth, he was not by her side. After Nian Yue was born, she bled profusely and died on the operating table.

In her investigation, Li Shu’s background was blank.

Li Shu.

Nian Yue sent the message to Wang Zhizhi. “Help me investigate this person.”

‘Wang Zhizhi had more connections than her. It was much faster to get Wang Zhizhi to investigate than to find a needle in a haystack herself.

This was also the reason why she had insisted on collaborating with Wang Zhizhi.

*

‘When she went to class the next day, Wang Zhizhi was playing a game with her head lowered. When Lin Nan came back from his run, he tuned around and said to her, “Next month, the Nian family will be connected with the Chen family through marriage. It’s Nian Yan and Chen Yiran.

‘The matter between Nian Yan and Chen Yiran had blown up in the upper-class society. After all, it was not a glorious thing to be caught sleeping together by the media.

As a result, Nian Yan and Chen Yiran’s reputation in school have become exceptionally bad.

“So soon?” Nian Yue raised her eyebrows.

Given Nian Yan’s personality and her penchant for stringing people along, how could she have agreed to get engaged with Chen Yiran?

“Tm afraid you still don’t know how big the matter has blown up in the media…” Lin Nan shrugged.

Nian Yue really did not care much about Nian Yan and Chen Yiran’s reputation in the media. So much so that she had totally forgotten about the matter.

However, she was bothered about the issue of inheritance.

Nian Yue was not very busy these few days. Other than not disturbing her when she was sleeping, she was quite easy to talk to.

As her classmates slowly became familiar with her, they were naturally not as afraid as they were at the start.Some people would even talk to her about questions and occasionally team up with her to play games. After all, if one were to team up with her, he would be able to win without using his brain.

The Lin Group had sent a test report. It was the virtual system she wanted last time.

After a month of resetting, the VR environment had already improved. However, she needed to go to the Lin Group again to test its overall performance.

After school, Nian Yue put one hand in her pocket and went to the Lin Group with Lin Nan.

‘When Manager Zhao saw her, he was all smiles. “Miss Nian, the various functions of the machine have been improved according to your requirements. It can now reach 40% of your requirements…”

“Yes.” Nian Yue took the blueprint and glanced at the virtual space.

Compared to the virtual space she saw last time, the glass in the virtual space this time was thicker by another level. The last time she came to test the system, she had exerted too much force. The glass in the virtual space was cracked by her kick and the research and development team had to change the

material.

This was the first time Lin Nan had seen the virtual system, and his eyes were bright. “Sister Yue, can I try?”

He knew that the Lin Group had always been developing things in this regard.

However, it had only been two or three months and had never been announced to the outside world. This was the first time he had come in and seen such a thing, so he was naturally curious.

“Sure.” Nian Yue nodded and said to the technician, “Peg it at 10%.”

‘The other party passed the VR glasses to him. Lin Nan entered the virtual space. The moment he put on the glasses, the scene in front of him changed drastically.

There was a virtual statue in front of him, attacking him!

Lin Nan did not dare to be careless. He dodged to the side and then exchanged blows with the virtual idol!

‘Twenty minutes passed. Lin Nan was already panting from exhaustion.

‘The virtual characters inside were too terrifying. In the first two minutes, he still had the possibility of counterattacking, but later on, he was almost completely beaten.

If Nian Yue had not guided him for a while, he might not have even been able to stay for five minutes.

The technical team pressed the pause button. Lin Nan took off his glasses and walked out.

Because he had been training for too long, his body was wet as if he had just been fished out of water.

He was so tired that he was panting. “Sister Yue, did you really invent this?”

“You used too much force so it’s easy to lose your breath,” Nian Yue evaluated.

This was something that was used in the post-apocalyptic world for training. Everything was done according to the physical fitness of soldiers.

Lin Nan’s physique was not good. He could not take it even though she only increased the intensity by 10%.

Lin Nan panted heavily. When he had enough rest, his eyes were filled with light. “Sister Yue, if you launch this, it will definitely be the best in terms of entertainment or military training!”

This kind of thing was much stronger than a real battle!

Most importantly, they could collect data on various indicators of the human body and optimize them. One could choose the appropriate training plans according to the indicators.

If it was used to improve training, it would definitely be a milestone breakthrough!

When Nian Yue had asked for 20% of the Lin Group’s shares, he had felt that it was not worth it!

But at this moment, he sincerely believed that if this technology was used for military training, it would reap benefits multifold!

Nian Yue giving this to the Lin Group was already her biggest concession.

“Yes.” Nian Yue nodded. If the Lin Group completed this project, their future development would be more inclined to entertainment.

As for the military, it seemed like a distant matter to her. Unlike the post-apocalyptic world, this world did not have anything she wanted to protect. Not to mention her loyalty as a soldier. In that world, she was loyal to the dynasty and the army, but her efforts were for nought.

Nian Yue sneered and could not be bothered to continue thinking. She carried her bag and left the Lin Group.

As if he could tell that she was not in a good mood, Lin Nan did not ask further and followed her.

The aloof girl still had an unruly look on her face.

Lin Nan walked beside her and seemed to think for a long time before he finally decided to ask, “Sister Yue, will you use it for specialized training?”

Be it in terms of configuration or training system, this was all based on the army’s training standards.

“This is specially for me.” Nian Yue’s voice was lazy. “There will be another system for entertainment in the future…”

“Have you… been in the army?” Lin Nan continued to ask..
