Chapter 1644 Little Aunt
Yan Jin Nian looked at Nan Hua who was confident and smiled faintly. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and muttered in a low voice.
In the next moment, the light in her eyes changed slightly.
Nan Hua knew that Yan Jin Nian was using her ability at this moment. Her ability was also related to the eyes, but it was different from Luo Qing Wei who could see through human's body.
What it did was to see through the finest detail.
Coupled with Yan Jin Nian's observation ability, this would allow her to know if there was anyone who lied to her. Because the slightest movement would never exchange her eyes, allowing her to know the subconscious action that everyone did in front of her.
But this ability was not without the price.
Even without Yan Jin Nian telling her, Nan Hua had guessed that the price was <her weak body>
The more she used this ability, <the weaker her body would be>.
It would also speed up her death.
Perhaps, this was the penultimate price that everyone had to pay. Their own life was put on the stake because they wanted to use the ability that was not in accordance to the law of the world.
"What makes you trust me so much, Young Miss Nan?" Yan Jin Nian was smiling, but there was no real warmth in her eyes.
She has always been a person who looked warm on the surface but very few people could actually enter her heart.
Life is about a play.
For her, acting in accordance to the way of the world was very easy and Yan Jin Nian was used to it. Being able to use her ability, she would be able to know what the other people wanted from her.
Not many people were worthy of her real heart.
Nan Hua had known about this from a long time because of reading the story. During the interaction between Yan Jin Nian and Long Qian Xing, the two of them were close yet distant.
Yan Jin Nian didn't mind showing part of herself because there were not many people who were connected to her previous life.
But she was not willing to truly show her real self to everyone.
Because many people wanted to harm her for various reasons.
"I come here to propose a deal with you." Nan Hua was calm. Even if she was under the scrutiny of many people, she could control her every action. The subconscious action that people couldn't control had to be controlled by her.
This was the result of the training that was done in that hell.
If she couldn't pass the test, she wouldn't be able to come out alive.
And among the children who were staying there, she was one of the few who managed to crawl out alive and eventually made a name for herself. Blending with the world, showing her fangs when it was necessary and then disappear.
That was something that she had done countless times.
Being interrogated by countless people, she had never shown any weakness, not in the slightest bit. Even if there was any, it was all nothing more than an act that she purposely showed in order to finish her mission.
Yan Jin Nian's eyes flickered. "What deal?"
"I'll let you see your Little Aunt in exchange to cover up this matter and spread it when it's time." Nan Hua looked at Yan Jin Nian directly. "I know where she is."
Little Aunt.
It was the title that Yan Jin Nian hadn't heard for so many years.
Everyone in Yan Family tacitly agreed not to mention this title again because it contained pain from the bottom of their health.
Some of them were guilty.
Some others were sad.
The rest of them simply didn't care.
Yan Jin Nian was the first.
Because Little Aunt disappeared because she protected Yan Jin Nian during the time Yan Family migrated to Fei Yang Kingdom.
She could barely remember her little aunt, but her presence was a knot in her heart. Another knot that Yan Jin Nian knew that she had to carry for her entire life. Because her life was paid in exchange for the life of another person.
Without her little aunt, Yan Jin Nian would have never survived.
Yan Jin Nian's body shook a bit. She looked at Nan Hua incredulously and took a deep breath, trying to calm her rapid heartbeat.
The news of her little aunt had disappeared many years ago.
Many people believed that she had passed away and thus no one dared to mention this name ever again.
Decades passed.
No news ever came.
Now, Yan Jin Nian faced someone who brought her the long awaited news that had been buried for so many years.
How could she not be calm?
"Are you serious?" Yan Jin Nian asked.
"Yes." Nan Hua was still staring straight in Yan Jin Nian's direction without any fear nor disturbance. She was no longer like the previous young lady who would follow the etiquette and knew that she was not allowed to stare directly to the member of the Imperial Family.
At this moment, she didn't hide her real disposition and the power that was behind her.
She was not just a mere young lady.
She was the true leader and also a general who had led so many people to victory, killing countless people in her path.
"Is she alive?"
"She's alive and well," Nan Hua replied unhurriedly. She knew this matter from so many years ago but she never come forward to Empress Dowager Yan because it was unnecessary.
Yan Jin Nian's little aunt also no longer had much affection for the so called Yan Family.
She's happy with her life.
But in terms of her little niece who was very cute, she was also willing to meet with the other party again.
"If you're willing to help, I'll arrange your meeting with her soon after the deeds are done."
