Chapter 163: Chapter 163: The Last Day Tycoon (28)

The base laboratory.

Ning You and Chuzheng stood on either side, with Mu Jie in the middle, the leader of that group.

Before the apocalypse, they received news that there were clues about a young lady who had been missing for many years.

They hadn’t expected to not find her but instead encountered the end of the world.

They were relatively lucky, as most of them awakened special abilities.

They thought they would never find their young lady.

Yet they met her at Qingan Base.

The jade was picked up by Mu Jie, who had searched the base for several days before finding the person.

But now they were being told…

They’d made a mistake?

They indeed carried samples for a paternity test, which was to preliminarily confirm after finding the young lady.

When they found Ning You, they had Qingan Base help with the test, and the conclusion was indeed…

Mu Jie stood with his hands behind his back, looking somberly at the busy people inside the transparent laboratory.

Chuzheng, somewhat tired, leaned on the glass. Brother Yong and the others hadn’t come; she had asked them to take Lu Ran to the villa first and to keep watch over him there.

Ning You stood on the other side, head lowered, palms full of cold sweat.

What to do…

Once the paternity test was out, everything would be revealed.

But she couldn’t run now, there was nothing she could do…

Why hadn’t she lost her memory?

Why hadn’t she died!

Why…

Ning You’s resentment grew stronger at the bottom of her heart.

The paternity test took time, and during this period neither Chuzheng nor Ning You were allowed to leave; Mu Jie paced back and forth in the corridor with his hands behind his back.

“Can you settle down?” Chuzheng snapped impatiently.

Mu Jie turned to look at the girl leaning against the glass, her entire being exuding a cool and distant aloofness.

The girl’s features were delicate, and her indifferent expression added a touch of heroic spirit.

There was a vague resemblance to the gentleman in her brows.

Looking at Ning You, there wasn’t even that faint resemblance to the gentleman…

But everything had to wait for the conclusion.

As soon as the results came out, Mu Jie was the first to look at them, his expression growing uglier by the second.

The conclusion showed Ning You had no blood relation to their gentleman.

The one who was related was this girl… they had once held hostility towards her based on Ning You’s words.

To ensure accuracy, Mu Jie personally took samples from Chuzheng and Ning You and sent them to two separate laboratories.

Under his supervision, the tests were conducted with no possibility of cheating.

“Snap!”

Mu Jie slammed the results onto the glass next to Ning You, and the paper fluttered down in front of her eyes.

His grim gaze frightened Ning You: “Uncle Jie…”

Mu Jie smoothed his hair, restraining his anger: “Ning You, what is this all about.”

“I…” Ning You’s tears spun in her eyes.

The samples for the original test were provided by Ning You; any mistake could only have happened at her step.

So she had known all along, she wasn’t the person they were looking for.

“I don’t know.” Ning You shook her head: “It was you who said I was… I believed it because you said so, I know nothing…”

“You don’t know the sample you gave me?”

“Then… maybe they made a mistake during the test; I never said I was… It’s always been you saying it, what does that have to do with me!” Ning You bit her teeth: “You made a mistake yourselves, how can you blame me?”

Mu Jie recalled that indeed, the woman had never actually said so herself.

“The jade?”

“I… found it!” Since no one knew what happened back then, even if Chuzheng spoke out, it would just be her word against Ning You’s. Ning You just had to vehemently deny it.

“`

“Search her, she should still have my hair on her.” Ning You had a good idea, but Chuzheng had never fixated on the jade.

Ning You wouldn’t be naive enough to think it was all over after one time.

To be on the safe side, she would surely have kept some more, and these items would most certainly be safe if carried on her person.

That damn dog plucked so much of my hair in the first place!

Ning You’s reaction also proved Chuzheng was right.

Mu Jie indeed found hair packed in a small bag on Ning You’s body, and Mu Jie ordered it to be compared with Chuzheng’s.

In the end, it was confirmed that the hair was Chuzheng’s.

Ning You was now at a loss for words.

“I apologize, miss, for making you suffer.” Mu Jie approached Chuzheng and bowed at a ninety-degree angle, “I am terribly sorry for the previous incident, we failed to discern the truth, please, miss, administer your punishment.”

Having handled the situation like this.

When he gets back, he might as well be skinned.

Since the start of the apocalypse, Mu Jie had only contacted that side a few times, now with communications cut off, yet Mu Jie still persevered with the mission, which showed the influence of the Mu family.

“It’s fine.” Chuzheng checked the time, “May I leave now?”

Good Person Cards are so hard to catch when they run.

“I’ll escort the miss back to rest first,” Mu Jie offered immediately. “Ning You, how does the miss plan to handle her?”

Daring to impersonate the miss, with the current situation, Mu Jie could kill her right away.

“Expel her from the base,” What else could be done since the person couldn’t be killed? “And shave her head on the way out.”

Mu Jie: “??”

–

How would the people at the base know that what began as a fight for supplies had turned into a scandal about true and false heiresses of a wealthy family?

Most had a bit of an impression of Ning You, because she was always followed by people who did not look like pushovers.

Now suddenly the word spread that Ning You was actually impersonating someone else and almost got the real victim killed. Not only that, but after the impersonation, she tried to frame the real victim and have her expelled.

And the person whose identity was taken was none other than the big philanthropist who had just donated supplies to the base.

This news spread through the base as if it had wings.

To watch such a drama in the apocalyptic world.

In just a few hours, dozens of versions emerged; the apocalypse couldn’t stop human gossip.

With such talk, Ning You would probably not have the face to stay in the base even if she were not expelled.

But she was not reconciled! Why didn’t Chuzheng die outside, why did she come back? In this post-apocalyptic world, there was a group of people with which she could have lived her life worry-free.

It was all ruined by her.

Ning You, with a bald head, stood outside the base in a pathetic state.

The survivors barred from entering the base harbored malice toward anyone coming from it, and some directly swarmed her.

Ning You retaliated when pushed, falling onto the scorching ground, her palms and knees scraped painfully, abruptly coming back to her senses.

People kept approaching her, and Ning You, in a flurry, activated her Special Ability to subdue them.

But she noticed that more and more people were gathering.

“Captain Huo, that looks like Ning You over there.”

Huo Jing followed the direction pointed out by his teammate, and saw Ning You being chased and quickly heading in his direction.

Huo Jing got out of the car and grabbed Ning You, “Ning You?”

Frantic, Ning You glanced at him, and seeing her own reflection in Huo Jing’s eyes, she screamed and pushed Huo Jing away before running off.

“Ning You!”

Ning You ran fast, disappearing from Huo Jing’s sight in the blink of an eye.

Huo Jing frowned, puzzled by Ning You’s changed appearance.

It was not until Huo Jing returned to the base that he learned what had happened, and he couldn’t quite identify his feelings, feeling quite complex about it.

To him, Ning You should have been a rather good girl.

Kind, courageous, and resourceful…

How could she do something like this?
