Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn

Chapter 758: Chapter 96: White Lies

~Thank you "lylpljm" for the pink~ Merry Christmas everyone~

Wang Shuai is a battalion commander, so what military rank would his grandfather Wang Fenglei, who is even older, hold?

Such a complex question has always been too much for Xiao Xian to bother with.

She just knew that swinging a knife at a senior officer was not a good idea, and Xiao Xian felt a chill on her neck before even making a move.

"Among the three of you, who is the most proficient in physical strength?" Seeing that Xiao Xian hesitated to make a move, Wang Fenglei looked over the three people present.

Among them, the girl with the surname knew him, and he could tell she was hesitant.

All the participants were female students, and if they were really to swing a knife, they probably wouldn’t have enough strength. For a moment, he couldn’t find anyone else and had to pick the tallest person from among the short ones.

"Her," Xiao Xian let out a sigh of relief, and in sync with Xuerou, they pointed at Yiyi together.

Zhang Yiyi’s baozi face crumpled into a xiaolongbao look, and when she came back to her senses, she found herself holding a "hot potato" of a kitchen knife.

"Then it’s you. Since you are from the research center of Huake Institute, you must have some special skills," A few days ago, Wang Shuai specifically went to see Wang Fenglei to request the annulment of his engagement with Xu Lan Ya, and also mentioned what happened in the Spiritual Fruit Garden at Huake Institute involving Xu Lan Ya and Ye Heng.

After hearing this, Wang Fenglei didn’t agree to his request immediately but said he would decide after investigating the matter thoroughly, which led to this trip to Huake Institute.

"Xiao Xian, who is he? When did such a formidable person come to the campus?" Xuerou didn’t have the chance to meet Wang Fenglei. Even if she didn’t know who Wang Fenglei was, just by his commanding presence, she could guess that the person must have been in a high position for a long time.

"Wang Shuai’s grandfather, a revered figure among the older generation and former head of the Wang Family," Compared with Mei Nian, the current head of the Mei Family, Wang Fenglei seemed more casual, but having seen how Wang Fenglei disciplined his son, Xiao Xian felt less constrained after meeting Wang Fenglei.

"What, you still let..." Xuerou lowered her voice and sneakily glanced at Yiyi and Wang Fenglei. What kind of scenario was this, a granddaughter-in-law waving a knife at her grandfather? In ancient times, this was enough to have Yiyi beheaded numerous times.

Even if Xuerou and Xiao Xian did not admit it, the tension between Yiyi and Wang Shuai was clearly problematic.

"Be gentle, if Yiyi hears us, it might scare her to death," Xiao Xian didn’t see anything wrong with letting Yiyi take action. On the contrary, Wang Fenglei’s visit today must have been for more than just a courtesy call.

The Wang Family chose Xu Lan Ya because of her family background, and another reason was Xu Lan Ya’s exceptional strength.

Every Cultivation Family hopes to have extraordinarily talented descendants in future generations. Wang Shuai said his mother was a commoner, which means Wang Fenglei wasn’t entirely against Yiyi.

Zhang Yiyi looked sullen, it was indeed her unlucky day, not only randomly picked to lead the way, but also to wield a knife against a formidable-looking uncle.

"Yiyi, come here," Xiao Xian had a plan in mind and whispered a few words in Yiyi’s ear.

"What? Are you serious?" Yiyi’s sullen face immediately changed, her eyebrows raised in anger as she glared furiously at Wang Fenglei.

She skillfully twirled the kitchen knife in her hand, making a couple of motions in the air as if she would chop Wang Fenglei into pieces.

Wang Fenglei was initially thinking of calling his grandson over, as all the female students in the room seemed to lack vigor, none displaying the spirit of a soldier. Thinking about testing the wrist guard with them would probably just be a waste with a bunch of flashy but ineffective moves.

Who would have thought that in just a moment, the tallest girl, who had been silent all the way, suddenly changed her demeanor. From a quiet hellokitty, she transformed into a ferocious tigress.

Not to mention, even her voice became louder by several degrees: "It was agreed, you asked me to chop, dealing with life or death. I heard you’re also a Cultivator, huh, my newbie skills shouldn’t pose any threat to you."

Xuerou was dumbfounded; Yiyi better not forget, just a few days ago Wang Shuai had helped her, and now she’s treating the Wang Family member like this.

"I told her that he’s Xu Lan Ya’s grandfather, Xu Changfu," Xiao Xian snickered, leaving Xuerou at a loss for words.

"Good, the spirit is not bad. I was saying that the environment at North Campus has improved, but the quality of the recruits seems to be getting worse," Wang Fenglei and Zhang Yiyi walked back, with Zhang Yiyi holding back her questions, and Wang Fenglei didn’t take much notice of this seemingly bitter female student.
