Chapter 2169
2169 Coincidentally, I Have Some Personal Grudges With the Ji Family
Feng Yu thought that she was afraid of the Ji family. After a moment of silence, he said seriously, “Yes, if you help me, you’ll be touching the core interests of these families. These families, including the Ji family, might not let you off easily. Of course, I’ll definitely do my best to protect you. It doesn’t matter if I sacrifice myself!”
“There’s no need to sacrifice yourself.” Light flickered in Qiao Nian’s eyes, as if a ferocious beast that had been sleeping soundly was about to wake up. Her tone was soothing as she casually held her phone and said to Feng Yu in a slightly hoarse voice, “What a coincidence. I happen to have some personal grudges to settle with the Ji family.”
“You mean…” Feng Yu was originally determined to lay his cards on the table with the girl, but he did not expect to receive such an unexpected reply.
Qiao Nian asked him, “How do you plan to remove the powers controlling the research institute, including the Ji family?”

Two days later.
News from the First Research Institute stated that Feng Yu wanted to appoint an heir.
This news came from within the research institute. At first, not many people believed it. After all, similar rumors spread every few years.
They said that Feng Yu wanted to nurture an heir.
In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed, but Feng Yu had yet to make a move.
Therefore, not many people paid attention to this news.
However, the few big families in the independent continent were still concerned about this matter. Thus, they immediately started asking around.
Feng Yu deliberately confirmed the matter. When someone asked him indirectly, he deliberately put on an ambiguous attitude.
His vague attitude also caused some of the forces and families who heard the news to become serious. They wondered if Feng Yu really wanted to choose an heir this time.
…
On the other side.
Ji Ziyin had not been idle for the past two days.
After she returned from meeting Lu Yiming at the clubhouse, she had been thinking of ways with Ji Xiao to investigate who Lu Zhi had chosen as his project partner.
However, Tian Chen was very tight-lipped.
She had been going back and forth for two days, but she had not found anything useful.
Although furious, Ji Ziyin was helpless. She did not dare to make too much noise lest Lu Zhi found out about her cheap shot.
She could not find the partner Tian Chen had chosen this time.
Not discouraged, Ji Ziyin joined forces with Ji Xiao to look for a few people from the independent continent who were eyeing this cooperation project like them. She proposed to discuss business with Lu Zhi together. Everyone would compete fairly. Whoever won would get it. No one would take advantage of the others.
She even took the initiative to provide Lu Zhi’s accommodation.
Ji Ziyin was magnanimous and sincere. In addition, the people she gathered did not know that Lu Zhi had already decided on a partner.
Ji Ziyin provided Lu Zhi’s address for no reason and said that everyone could look for him together. Everyone wanted to take advantage of her.
That day, Ji Xiao went to the hotel where Lu Zhi was staying with a few people.
Due to the last call, Ji Ziyin cleverly chose to hide behind the scenes and only parked the Ji family’s private car by the road outside the hotel. She did not go with them and patiently waited for news from Ji Xiao.
She had a good plan.
Lu Zhi was a man of his word in the illegal district, but this was the independent continent.
She didn’t have much status in the Ji family but was one of the best among the younger generation. She might not be worthy in the eyes of people like Lu Zhi.
