The Cultivator's Reborn to 1970s-Chapter 148 - 123

Took a deep breath, calmed down slightly, Lan Tian turned around, glanced at Zhou Yuwei, shook his head, and said, "I don’t know her. We met on the train that came here, and it seemed like she knew my Junhua. Junhua said he is not familiar with Nurse Zhou. I don’t know why Nurse Zhou is looking for me?"

Zhou Yuwei looked at Lan Tian with slight unease, her eyes pleading, hoping that, as friends, Lan Tian would speak in her favor. However, hearing what Lan Tian said, she stared with her mouth agape, her face filled with disbelief.

"Lan Tian, I thought... I thought we could be friends?"

Girl, which eye of yours saw that I wanted to be friends with you? With such self-righteous and presumptuous people, Lan Tian chose to ignore and turned to talk to Tian Xianghua.

"Sister-in-law, let the child come down and rest in the shade." Lan Tian took some candies from her bag and gave them to the child, who shook off Tian Xianghua’s hand, took the candies, and ran off to play on the playground.

"This child didn’t even say thank you before running away," Tian Xianghua said as she watched the child run off, then turned to Lan Tian somewhat helplessly, "You already gave him so much before, why give more? Keep some for yourself."

"There’s more at home, all prepared by the elders at home. Junhua doesn’t like sweets, and I can’t eat so much by myself; besides, the child wouldn’t eat much."

As they talked, they walked towards the playground, leaving Zhou Yuwei awkwardly standing there, watching them go.

At the playground, there were military wives who had come from rural areas; their families were with them, and the urban military wives, such as Ma Juanjuan, weren’t there. Going over would just be embarrassing for them.

Zhou Yuwei bit her lip, she could only find another opportunity to talk to Lan Tian.

Sitting on the grass, watching Zhou Yuwei walk away, Tian Xianghua spat towards her retreating figure, muttering under her breath, "Disgusting shameless fox."

Lan Tian blinked, pretending not to hear. It seemed Tian Xianghua had a pretty big complaint against Zhou Yuwei, probably not just about seducing her man.

"Don’t take her words seriously at all, Camp Commander Mo is cold to everyone, including Nurse Zhou. I don’t know what’s wrong with that woman; she just insists on clinging to Camp Commander Mo. You can tell she’s not a decent and honest woman just by looking at her walk. She’s not some innocent young lady anymore, and the way she swings her hips, she might just break them."

Wow, that’s a lot of information!

Looking at the retreating figure of Zhou Yuwei, high-level cultivators can distinguish whether a cultivator two levels below them has kept their Primordial Yin or Primordial Yang, but Lan Tian’s cultivation is low and can’t tell if Zhou Yuwei has lost her virginity.

"That woman is unscrupulous. Ma Juanjuan, who is naive, befriended her. Unfortunately, Nurse Zhou doesn’t treat her as a friend. Sooner or later she’ll suffer. In the building, some military wives saw Ma Juanjuan’s man flirting with Nurse Zhou in the health center, tugging and pulling on her. Other military wives warned her, but she retorted that they’re trying to stir trouble between her and Nurse Zhou. Kind intentions mistreated as malicious, later everyone stopped mentioning it. Bringing a white-eyed wolf into the house, she will have her time of crying."

A few other military wives nodded in agreement.

It turns out everyone knew Zhou Yuwei had ulterior motives.

In her previous life, Zhou Yuwei was very good at acting, creating the image of a perfect woman - well-read, gentle, considerate, always presenting a tender and kind demeanor in public, making it seem like everything she said was the truth, and if anyone objected, she would appear as if she were hurt, wavering as if about to collapse, making it always appear as someone else’s fault, painting those who objected to her views as cruel.

No one knew behind closed doors she was harsh, venomous, with deep schemes, plotting against those she saw as threats to her, ruthlessly eliminating them.

After leaving her family home in her previous life, she dispatched people to follow Lan Tian, hoping to eliminate her in an abandoned place. However, by a stroke of luck and a mix of circumstances, Lan Tian narrowly escaped.

Lan Tian came to know about this incident by overhearing two men in civilian clothes complaining in a park while she was picking up trash. After that, she avoided that area, fearing she might be killed by the people Zhou Yuwei sent after her, and moved several times to stay alive.

In this life, Zhou Yuwei acts rashly and impulsively, with some cunning but lacking in acting skills to maintain composure. A slight kindness from Mo Junhua is enough to disturb her and throw her into disarray.

A woman’s success still depends on a man’s attitude, especially for a deeply emotional woman like Zhou Yuwei. Mo Junhua is her weakness, and having Mo Junhua means striking the hardest blow at her.

"Don’t take it lightly. I see that woman isn’t easily giving up; it’s like she’s got her claws into your family. You’re still young, there are many things you don’t understand. When a woman loses her temper, she can do anything."

Lan Tian laughed with curving eyes, "Sister-in-law is absolutely right."

It was getting dark, everyone dispersed, the men training were almost back, and the military wives headed home to cook. Lan Tian stood up along with them; Tian Xianghua reminded Lan Tian to ask her anytime if he didn’t understand something, to which Lan Tian happily agreed. Who in the past life said Tian Xianghua was a fool? Seeing what she said today, she was someone of great wisdom, seeing clearer than anyone else.

Lan Tian was the only one at home; there was no need to cook, his dinner was just a peach and a few grapes. After eating, he washed up and bathed, practiced calligraphy in the study for an hour, then meditated in his room. The spiritual energy in his Dantian restored to eighty percent, Lan Tian ended his cultivation and went to bed to sleep.

He slept until noon, refreshed and vibrant, a stark contrast to the pallid and listless self after overusing his divine sense in the sacrificial refining of the Thunder Mother Stone.

The bloated feeling in his Sea of Consciousness was gone, and upon checking, Lan Tian was delighted to discover his divine sense had grown slightly. Humming happily, he went to wash up but saw Mo Junhua cooking in the kitchen, looking rather unwell.

Indeed, anyone who suffered through a night like that would look unwell, not to mention the food made by Lan Tian was not simple. It was fortunate that Mo Junhua was a military man, whose exceptional training and strong physique allowed him to move around after a whole night of discomfort, whereas anyone else might have ended up hospitalized for dehydration.

Hearing the humming from the doorway, Mo Junhua looked this way, "You’re up? How do you feel? Head still swollen? I’ve made food, hurry up and brush your teeth, wash your face, and come eat."

Lan Tian glanced at him, expression normal, went to wash in the bathroom, and then out to see the food served on the table, with Mo Junhua even serving her rice.

Lan Tian sat down, glanced at the person opposite, and asked mildly, "Are you okay? You look pale!"

Mo Junhua placed some vegetables in Lan Tian’s bowl, looked at Lan Tian meaningfully, and then said, "The doctor said it was food poisoning. I got injections and medication at the hospital last night, I’m fine now."

Lan Tian, with an indifferent expression, showing no shame of being caught, uttered ’Oh’, took her bowl, and ate without admitting or arguing.

"From now on, I’ll handle the chores like cooking and laundry. I’ve been doing these since childhood, and am quite used to them."

Lan Tian nodded, of course! Not everyone had the fortune to eat her cooking, if Mo Junhua wasn’t scared, Lan Tian didn’t care.

Mo Junhua disliked this atmosphere, as if two strangers who just met were sitting together, silent, watching Lan Tian’s expression he continued: "School starts in a few days. You should warm up on the books at home, look over your old notes in preparation. I’ve already inquired; Jingli First Middle School is very famous in Shanghai and is a prestigious school."

Lifting her eyes, Lan Tian looked at Mo Junhua, listening intently, seemingly thoughtful.

"The school is famous and influential in Shanghai; many come because of its reputation. The school gathers top students from everywhere. So, Jingli First Middle School has its rules. Even with Grandpa’s introduction, you’ll need to take a test to find out your level and determine which class you’ll join."

Hearing this, Lan Tian calmly said, "Grandpa really means well finding me such a good school, it must have taken a lot of effort, pulling connections, and probably owing many favors."

When she arrived, grandma mentioned that her Grandpa got old, had no descendants, and told her to look out for him, agree to things that are convenient and do not affect her matters.

Seeing that Lan Tian’s plate was empty, Mo Junhua added another portion of meat, "Eat more, you’ve lost a lot of weight."

Not as cute as when you were little, you were so adorable being chubby!

Understanding the meaning in Mo Junhua’s eyes, Lan Tian rolled her eyes at him, shook her head and refused, "Don’t add anymore, I’m not used to eating food from outside."
