Nian Yan was caught with her foot in her mouth!

Nian Yan turned pale. “Yue Yue, how could you lie? I know you’re afraid of punishment, but you can’t frame me…”

Nian Chaoyu had always been the most shameless in demonstrating what it meant to be ‘framed’.

When she said this, she was trying to prove to Nian Chaoyu that she was different from Nian Yue.

“Didn’t you say you were going to create opportunities for Chen Yiran and me?” Nian Yue said slowly. “Sister, you have to admit what you did…”

Nian Chaoyu’s face darkened as he watched the two of them exchange words.

“Dad, it’s not like that. Listen to me…” Nian Yan cried.” Yue Yue said that she likes Chen Yiran and asked me to cover for her. That’s why I said that.”

In the blink of an eye, the confident Nian Yan had become the victim.

“Nian Yue!”

Nian Chaoyu was about to raise his ruler again. “I thought that you would restrain yourself after being in the countryside for so many years! But I didn’t expect that you would not repent and even slander your sister!”

Nian Chaoyu subconsciously trusted Nian Yan more than Nian Yue.

Nian Yan lowered her head and her lips curled into a mocking smile in a place where no one could see her.

She waited to see what Nian Yue would do.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open. A servant rushed over and whispered something into Nian Chaoyu’s ear.

Nian Chaoyu’s expression immediately darkened!

“Dad…”

After waiting for a long time, Nian Yan had thought that Nian Yue would be beaten up. However, she did not expect Nian Chaoyu to walk over and slap her without a word!

Nian Yan was stunned by his actions and did not react for a long time.

“Dad…”

“You still have the cheek to call me Dad?!” Nian Chao slapped her angrily. “Tell me, where did you go tonight?!”

“I’ve been waiting for you outside…”

“Then take a look at what this is?!” Nian Chao flung the photos in his hand angrily. A dozen photos were scattered all over her face.

Nian Yan hurriedly took one and her face turned pale. She hurriedly explained to Nian Chaoyu, “Dad, this isn’t real! Someone must have set me up. This is synthesized!”

“You’re still lying to me?!” Nian Chaoyu was so angry that his eyes turned black. He had never thought that the biological daughter he had personally groomed would actually…

“This is fake. Someone must have framed me…” Nian Yan cried as she shook her head.” Dad, you must believe me…”

“Then tell me, who would frame you…” Nian Chaoyu questioned coldly.

“It’s… Nian Yue, it must be Nian Yue. I didn’t go over with her today and she harbors hatred in her heart…” Nian Yan pointed at Nian Yue without any explanation.

“Enough!” Nian Chaoyu’s face darkened. “You didn’t repent after making a mistake and now you’re pushing the blame onto your sister!”

Nian Chaoyu was furious. “From today onwards, you are grounded for two months! All your allowance will be deducted! Until you know your mistake!”

“Dad!” Nian Yan was scared out of her wits. She had never expected that Nian Chaoyu would punish her so severely!

“No… Chaoyu…” Wang Meihua rushed in from outside.” Yanyan has a piano competition in two days. This time, Master Zhang is here…”

Nian Yan had a piano competition every year and always came in first.

This was her capital in Jiang City.

It was said that the Nian Family’s Second Mistress was talented and beautiful.

If she missed Master Zhang’s piano competition in a few days, it would be difficult to see her again!

“Do you want to be punished together with her?!” Nian Chaoyu’s tone was stern.

Wang Meihua met his gaze and didn’t dare to say anything else.

Nian Yan was dragged out hurriedly. With tears of anger in her eyes, she glared fiercely at Nian Yue!

This must have been done by Nian Yue!

This little b*tch, she would definitely find a chance to take revenge!

The room fell silent once again. Nian Chaoyu sighed and said to Nian Yue, “Your sister is young and insensible. We will let it slide this time.”

He was referring to the issues of Nian Yue returning late as well as what happened with Nian Yan.

The corners of Nian Yue’s lips twitched and her jade-like face looked a little cold at this moment. She smiled as she said in a mocking tone, “You didn’t tell me that this kind of thing happened before. It’s enough that it happened once.”

Nian Yan framed Nian Yue right in front of him, almost causing her to lose her life. As a father, he could even ignore it.

When it came to Nian Yan’s mistake, Nian Chaoyu’s attitude changed quite quickly.

“You…” Nian Chaoyu didn’t expect her to actually retort. His expression was a little ugly.

“If there’s nothing else, I’m going back.”

With one hand in her pocket, Nian Yue went straight back to her room.

Nian Chaoyu looked at her and suddenly fell into deep thought.

Nian Yue had enunciated every word clearly and did not seem like a fool at all.

When Nian Yue returned to her room, she was feeling dirty and uncomfortable. She went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.

Twenty minutes later, Nian Yue came out of the room. She walked slowly to the window and breathed in the fresh air outside.

It was two o’clock in the morning, and it was quiet. It was also the time when her supernatural power was the strongest.

In order to adapt to the environment, humans in the post-apocalyptic era evolved their own superpowers.

She had a rare power that could absorb the essence of all the plants and animals in this world to evolve her power.

Although the air in the current human world was not as pure as it was thousands of years ago, it was much better compared to what they had at the end of the world.

As Nian Yue stood in front of the window, she could feel the cells in her body stretching uncontrollably.

Suddenly, rustling sounds came from outside. The source of the noise was the back garden not far away!

Who could have caused such a commotion in the backyard at this hour?

“Nian Yue, do you dare to come out?” A notification sounded from her phone. When she saw the message, the corner of Nian Yue’s lips twitched. Then, she propped herself up and directly jumped down from the third floor through the window!

Her actions were clean and efficient.

If anyone had seen her, they would have been surprised. Her movements were of a higher standard than any trained soldier in the army.

At this moment, the back garden was pitch black. Nian Yue had one hand in her pocket as she walked over slowly.

Not far from her, a golden retriever was sitting on the ground. When it saw her, the golden retriever let out a low whimper that seemed to be mixed with grievance.

Nian Yue walked over and squatted down. She raised her hand to stroke the dog’s forehead.
