Wait a minute!

His mind finally cleared. When he called Fan Heping earlier, he mentioned that Nan Yan was helping him, but he never imagined she was involved in the operation to eradicate City of Desire! This girl…

Zhang Chenyin couldn’t keep calm as he looked at Nan Yan. Although he knew he shouldn’t think this way, he couldn’t help but worry. What if something happened to Nan Yan? The country would lose a genius!

“It was just a small effort on my part. The real credit belongs to those soldiers,”

Nan Yan refused to take credit.

“Young girl, don’t try to decline. Without you and Qin Lu infiltrating the organization, seizing control, and providing opportunities for outsiders, this mission wouldn’t have gone so smoothly without casualties,” Pei Yuncang insisted.

Zhang Chenyin was dumbfounded. So Qin Lu was involved too… These two… Thankfully, thankfully… He hadn’t persuaded Qin Lu to join them earlier, and now he had managed to recruit Nan Yan, finally not missing out on both of them.

Throughout the rest of the conversation, Zhang Chenyin was stunned and couldn’t get a word in. He could only quietly observe as a bystander.

“Young girl, are you interested in joining the military?” After their conversation, Pei Yuncang’s attitude towards Nan Yan became even warmer, and he entertained the idea of having her join the army.

Even in the face of her deep admiration for him, Nan Yan graciously refused, expressing, “While I am truly honored by Commander Pei’s invitation, I must regretfully decline as I am currently engaged in another urgent and critical mission.”

Taking note of Nan Yan’s sincere demeanor and resolute tone, Pei Yuncang discerned that persuading her was an exercise in futility.

Consequently, he gracefully acknowledged her decision, remarking, “I fully understand and respect your choice. Should you ever reconsider, know that my door is always open to you. Our nation and armed forces are always in need of exceptional talents like yourself.”

Meanwhile, Zhang Chenyin breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that Nan Yan had not been whisked away by another party.

In the days that followed, Nan Yan threw herself into her preparation with unwavering dedication.

Her focus was on meticulously preparing the necessary documents for an upcoming presentation—a project of paramount importance that held the potential to save her two friends who remained unconscious in the laboratory.

With the weight of this responsibility pressing upon her, Nan Yan found herself unable to afford even a moment’s respite. Rather than allowing herself the luxury of relaxation, she devoted every waking hour to her work, tirelessly pouring over her tasks day and night within the Imperial University..
