Chapter 339 What kind of thing did her mother actually fancy back then?
Reading Settings
When Bai Nuo arrived on the first floor, she saw three people standing in the open space in front of the building. She walked over without any expression on her face. Although she had already discussed the next plan with Fang Meng and the others, she really didn't know how to face the Zhu family, especially Zhu Kaixuan.
I heard that my mother loves this man, and that they have a deep relationship. They grew up together, went to school together, and enlisted in the army together, but their dreams were different. One became an air force pilot, and the other joined the Marine Corps.
Bai Nuo didn't know where Zhu Kaixuan had been all these years, but he could guess that what he had been doing must have been something of great benefit to the country and its people. He was a hero, and even if not many people knew about what he had done, that did not diminish his contribution to the country.
But so what? She lived for seventeen years in the apocalypse in her previous life, and many of her beliefs and habits cannot be erased or changed even after being reborn into this world.
She has always been a selfish person. She is incapable of making such a great sacrifice for the greater good, and she would never hurt someone who truly loves her for the sake of others or things.
These are the fundamentals for people to survive in the end times, where kindness will not last long.
She respects and admires heroes who sacrifice themselves to save others, and even if she has the ability, she would help them avenge themselves, even if she doesn't know them, but she would never become such a hero.
Bai Nuo never considered herself a person with sound values. She was originally a despicable person. In the words of the little system, if she were placed in a novel, she would be a complete villain. After she had her fill of fun, she might even wipe out the main characters and destroy the world for fun because she was too bored.
Zhu Kaixuan looked at the little girl standing not far away, feeling uneasy and nervous. To be honest, he had never been nervous when he was surrounded by a platoon of enemies on the battlefield.
Thinking about it again, this was the child his wife had gone through so much to give birth to, their child, and his heart ached even more.
"Yes, yes!" Zhu Kaixuan clenched his fist nervously, then wiped the sweat from his palms on his trouser leg before walking over with hesitant steps.
"Is there something you need?" Bai Nuo frowned slightly, crossed his arms, and looked impatient. His tone was indifferent, sounding somewhat cold and ruthless, but lacking the politeness he had shown when they first met on the mountain.
Although his tone was equally unpleasant, it reassured Zhu Kaixuan considerably.
It's normal for his daughter to have resentment towards him and not like to talk to him. Now that she's less distant and polite, it proves that in her heart, the relationship between the two of them is no longer that of strangers.
So, it's a good thing for Zhu Kaixuan when his daughter gets angry, quarrels, or even throws a tantrum, as long as he doesn't treat her like a stranger.
The big, tough guy, exuding an aura of iron and blood, couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth into a smile as he looked at the girl in front of him with a mixture of amusement and caution.
"I heard that your uncle has completed your enrollment procedures at Peking University. Are you planning to return to Beijing in the next few days?"
"Oh, Commander Zhu's information network is quite impressive, isn't it? You know so much about my family's affairs." Bai Nuo tilted her chin up slightly, looking at Zhu Kaixuan with a haughty expression, her attitude quite unpleasant.
The three members of the Zhu family, uncle and nephew, did not mind at all, and even felt that it was only natural for Bai Nuo to treat them this way.
After all, it would seem a bit strange to them if she accepted her suddenly appearing biological father without any resentment. Zhu Bao even couldn't help but slip up and secretly investigate all of his little cousin's past experiences, including all the people she had ever met.
Otherwise, it would be really hard to feel at ease.
After all, the situation in this era is chaotic, and people at all levels can be infiltrated by the enemy, especially families like theirs, which are the enemy's primary targets.
On the contrary, it's Bai Nuo's indifference, his disdain for them as if he wished they had never existed, and his desire for them to go back to where they came from, that makes people feel most at ease.
Therefore, the saying that environment determines one's mindset is absolutely true.
Bai Nuo did not have the ability to read minds, and had never heard of such an ability before, so he was unaware of the psychological changes of the three members of the Zhu family, only finding them strange.
Although the Zhu family was involved in her plans, she didn't necessarily have to be close to them. She just didn't want to tarnish her family's reputation because of her own willfulness. If Zhu Kaixuan didn't want to acknowledge her, she would be happy to be free of worry.
Besides, she's not the type of person who can tolerate being wronged. Even if she acknowledges this father for the sake of her family's reputation, she won't lower herself to treat him well.
So, if you want a good attitude, that's impossible!
Even in her condition, the eighth son of the Zhu family still happily bounced over, looking at Bai Nuo with a look of surprise.
"Little sister, how did you know that Uncle just received his appointment notice? Let me tell you, when we go back this time, Uncle can go directly to the General Military Region to report for duty and be promoted to the position of Army Commander, and a full Army Commander at that. Isn't that amazing? That way, when you go home, no one will dare to bully you."
Bai Nuo stared speechlessly at the overly familiar man in front of her. Was that what she meant?
"Shut up! If Grandpa finds out you came up here and started teaching your little sister to bully others, he'll break your legs." Zhu Bao grabbed his stupid younger brother and pulled him back, giving him a speechless glare. This guy really doesn't know any manners at all. Will he really have to support him for the rest of his life?
Bai Nuo glanced at the report indifferently, chuckled lightly, and said in a calm tone, "My maternal grandfather is Bai Zhicheng."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Bao was taken aback, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes, not understanding why Bai Nuo suddenly mentioned who her maternal grandfather was.
