1832 I'll Make 'Him' Never Return!
"I'll arrange for some people to keep an eye on the port." Killing intent appeared in Ji Xiao's eyes as he slammed his teacup on the table.
He crossed his legs and sneered. "Hmph, no matter who he is, I'll make sure 'he' doesn't return!"

The next day.
Qiao Nian went out early in the morning.
She did not go to the hospital to visit Old Master Jiang. Instead, she went to a quiet private club in the city center.
The private club was built with a Chinese architectural style. In a place like Beijing where every inch of land was worth money, the well-arranged pavilions and the style of the Harmonious Stream of Flowing Goblets made the boss here look especially classy.
Some approached Qiao Nian as soon as she arrived. He sized her up curiously and asked with a smile, "Hello, are you Miss Qiao?"
"Yes."
Qiao Nian wasn't wearing a cap today. She was wearing a short-sleeved sweater over a white T-shirt. Her style was beautiful and valiant.
She only had a phone on her and looked very casual.
It did not match the luxurious style of the club at all.
The waiter immediately made a 'please enter' gesture. "Miss Qiao, Madam Wei has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me."
With that, the waiter led the way.
Qiao Nian's eyes darkened as she followed with one hand in the pocket.
She saw all kinds of private rooms on both sides as they passed through a long corridor.
The waiter led Qiao Nian to a private room and opened the door for her. "Miss Qiao, we're here. Madam Wei is inside."
The interior of the private room was decorated in the same style as the outside of the club. It was also in a rich Chinese style. The room was decorated with tables, a coffee table, and a carved flower screen.
Wei Ying was sitting inside when she happened to look in their direction.
Her expression clearly worsened when she saw the girl standing beside the waiter, but she did not say anything.
Most importantly, she did not dare to say anything.
She could only watch as the girl walked in unhurriedly and arrogantly.
The waiter thoughtfully closed the door for them.
Wei Ying couldn't take it anymore. Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and she was suppressing her anger and worry as she asked "Qiao Nian, what exactly do you want?!"
Her voice sounded strong and intimidating.
However, in reality, her foundation was very weak. She was clearly just a paper tiger.
"You've been to the Independent Continent yourself. You should know the distribution of forces there very well. Why must you force me?"
Last night, Wei Ying received a text message before she went to bed. It was a photo with a few words.
The thing in the photo was the Ji family emblem.
Although she didn't know where Qiao Nian had found it, she was almost certain that she had found out more than she had imagined!
In addition, the few sentences in the message were to give her one night to consider whether she should tell her the truth about the black box recording.
Of course, the other party also came with a warning.
The Wei family's future and Wei Qi's safety.
At this moment, the veins on the back of Wei Ying's hand on the table bulged. She was obviously having a hard time enduring it.
She stared at the girl without blinking with eyes filled with fear and uneasiness, as well as sympathy as if she was looking at a person who was courting death. "You! Why do you have to go against the Ji family? The Independent Continent is not a place we can provoke, and the Ji family is even more so a family we can't afford to offend. Any one of them can crush us as easily as crushing ants…"
