Someone asked.
Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement.
“Yes, it should be Nian Yan, right? The eldest daughter of the Nian family, the school belle of our school! I didn’t expect her to be so down-to-earth despite looking otherworldly…”
…!!
Nian Yan was the eldest daughter of the Nian Family. At the same time, she was also an influential figure in Jiang City No.1 Middle School. Apart from being the campus belle, she was also a top student who was guaranteed a place at the Imperial University.It was said that she was going to perform on the piano in school next week.
If Nian Yan was the one who took five minutes to clear the stage, it would make sense!
They knew it. Who else would have the ability to do so?
“It wasn’t Nian Yan…”
Wang Zhizhi shook her head, pride flashing in her eyes. “It was Nian Yue.”
“Nian Yue?”
A look of doubt flashed across someone’s eyes. “Are you talking about the Second Mistress that the Nian Family just brought back? I heard that she’s a good-for-nothing idiot who stalks the school prince every day?!”
“Was it really her? Oh my god, she’s so stupid! How can she do it?”
“That’s right, Wang Zhizhi. Don’t tell me you’re speaking up for her after receiving benefits from her!”
…
When the group of students mentioned Nian Yue, their eyes were filled with disdain.
Everyone knew that the second daughter of the Nian family was always following Chen Yiran around. She was like a sticky candy that could not be shaken off.
“How is that possible?” Wang Zhizhi shook her head. “I don’t even know Nian Yan…”
Even though Wang Zhizhi was so certain, the group still did not believe her.
“Zhizhi, since you said it’s Nian Yue, then let her lead us in another fight when she has the time…”
“Exactly. Why don’t you set a time for her?”
…
“I’ll try my best!” Wang Zhizhi nodded. Other people might not know about Nian Yue, but she had clearly seen Nian Yue holding her phone and looking down to operate it.
Such speed and technique could not have been achieved without a few years of experience in eSports. However, when she thought about Nian Yue’s cold personality and the fact that a deal was the reason behind why she helped the last time, she was uncertain if Nian Yue would help.
She was worried.

By the time Nian Yue reached home, it was already dark. After having some dinner, Nian Yue carried her school bag upstairs. Halfway up the stairs, she casually asked Nanny Liu, “Nanny Liu, is there a gym on the third floor?”
“Yes, Miss, do you want to work out?” Mother Liu was packing her things when she thought of how Nian Yue looked so skinny and small. It was as if a gust of wind could blow her away. It would do her well to work out.
“Yes.” Nian Yue nodded.
“There is a lot of fitness equipment on the third floor, but they were all bought by Young Master from overseas…”
Nanny Liu was a little hesitant. Although Nian Yu had been away for the past few years, no one dared to touch anything on the third floor.
“Alright, I understand.” Nian Yue nodded and went upstairs.
After throwing her bag onto the study table, Nian Yue opened the wardrobe. It was filled with pink princess dresses, making her frown.
Finally, she found a piece of white sportswear at the end of the closet and put it on.Grandma had bought this for her when she was living in the countryside.
The gym was at the end of the corridor. Nian Yue pushed open the door. It was very clean. From the treadmill to the barbell, the fitness equipment was very complete.
The gym equipment had English labels and instructions. Nian Yue frowned. In the post-apocalyptic world, language had been unified. While English was not popular anymore, she had fortunately encountered the language in ancient books.
After training her strength, Nian Yue ran for ten minutes and did some simple stretching exercises. This body was too weak. When she was teaching those hooligans a lesson today, she already felt weak.It looked like she needed to come up with a detailed exercise plan.
Regardless of the era, the strong were respected.Before she reached the height she wanted, the only thing she could do was to improve her physical fitness. Only when her body became stronger could she become undefeatable.
For the next few days, besides going to the gym, Nian Yue would usually go to class.
Although a lot of knowledge in this era was easy to understand, No.1 Middle School was still a famous school in Jiang City. Listening to the lectures wouldn’t make her too bored.
Finally, it was Friday and the students had to take the monthly exam.
After the first lesson ended, the students of Grade 12 Class 1 entered the examination hall. As the monthly examination was usually divided according to the ranking of the examination, she was assigned to the last examination hall since she had not taken any exams at this school.
The students in the last examination hall were usually at the bottom of the cohort. There were only a few of them when it was time for the examination.
Nian Yue took a few glances at the Chinese Literature examination questions for the first round. She casually wrote down her name and laid on the table to sleep.
Yesterday, her supernatural power returned quite a bit. She meditated until midnight before sleeping.
Initially, the invigilator did not have much hope for the examinees in this class. He only cast a few more glances at Nian Yue.
She had heard that Nian Yue was the second daughter of the Nian Family. She had joined No. 1 Middle School after school started. She was indeed an ignorant and incompetent second-generation heir who could not be compared to her sister, Nian Yan.
Nian Yue only opened her eyes when the bell rang. She leaned against the chair indifferently and glanced at the paper. Then, she picked up her pen and filled in a few multiple choice questions.
The invigilator had already arrived in front of her and saw that her paper was blank except for her name.
A look of disdain flashed across the invigilator’s eyes as he accepted her paper.
Nian Yue yawned indifferently. The students behind her had also just woken up. When they saw that Nian Yue’s test paper was blank, they gave her a thumbs up and said, “Student, when did you transfer here? You’re awesome!”
Everyone knew how strict No.1 Middle School was. Even the hedonistic offspring of rich parents were not bold enough to hand in blank papers! However, the girl in front of them could not care less from the start to the end. She was even a little arrogant.
The second round was Mathematics. Nian Yue narrowed her eyes when she saw the papers being handed out. Her slender and fair fingers spun the pen as she looked at the papers carefully from the beginning to the end. Only then did she lower her head to write her answers.
The students behind her thought that she had thought things through and decided to be sensible. However, half an hour later, when they saw that she had filled up the papers, they were about to ask her for an answer when they saw that Nian Yue had already stood up.
“Teacher, can I hand in the papers in advance?”
The invigilator took her paper and flipped through it for three minutes before nodding. “Sure.”
She had been staring at Nian Yue just now. She had thought that the student who had handed in the blank paper for the last Chinese Literature exam was just messing around. However, she had done her paper seriously for half an hour.
Most importantly, she had taken a look at Nian Yue’s answers earlier. Nian Yue had solved them easily!
Nian Yue could not be bothered to look at the invigilator’s expression. With one hand in her pocket, she walked to the door and carried her bag down the stairs.
It had been a week since she’d thrown the money into the stock market. It was time to take it back.
There was an internet cafe near No.1 Middle School. Nian Yue paid and found a seat by the window.
She entered her password to her account. The money she had invested back then had already increased by several times!
50 million had become 500 million!
