2529 They Offended Lu Zhi Long Ago

She heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that they were not lost and then recalled what Yu Qingliu said.

"Privy Council."

Ji Ziyin's gaze landed on the laptop. The content she had copied from Ji Qing's notebook was stored in the C drive.

After checking them, her impetuous heart gradually calmed down.

She knew her abilities well.

She was not someone who undervalued herself, and she truly believed that she had a certain level of capability. However, her talent and abilities were not enough to gain a foothold in the reclusive families and the Privy Council. The only thing she could rely on was the contents of the notebook!

Therefore, the contents of the notebook were her lifeblood.

As long as she still had them, no matter what adversity she was in, she could turn the tables.

Wasn't the opportunity presented to her now?

Ji Ziyin's eyes were filled with ambition, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly as she turned off the computer.

Her cell phone rang at this moment.

"Hello." Ji Ziyin picked it up and saw it was a call from Ji Xiao. She answered with an indifferent tone.

Ji Xiao did not know her situation in Country M, so he asked, "You didn't spend the money?"

Money?

Only now did Ji Ziyin remember the auction three days ago. Her good mood was instantly doused. She said, "No, the thing I wanted was auctioned off."

"Who took it?"

Ji Ziyin's eyes were cold. "I don't know."

Compared to this, Ji Xiao was more concerned about something else. "Was Elder Yu unhappy? You can't offend him. In the future, you still have to rely on him to recommend you to the reclusive families' circle."

"Why did you call me?" Ji Ziyin did not want to explain too much to him, so she changed the topic. She walked to the dressing table and casually picked up the skincare products.

The Yu family was very generous this time.

The furnishings in her new guest room were all the best. The butler had even considered the skincare products that women needed!

They were all top luxury brands.

She did not have such treatment in her previous room.

It was obvious.

People could only enjoy better things if they climbed up the power ladder!

Ji Ziyin picked up a black bandage cream of Brand H and looked at it. Casually putting it down, she looked at her face in the mirror and slowly said, "You didn't call me just to say this, right?"

"I called to tell you that Matriarch Lu heard from President Simon of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance that you met the weapons dealer David and Qiao Nian in the underground garage last time.

"She's angry. She thinks she's being played."

Ji Xiao's voice softened. It was obvious that he had been having a headache over this matter for the past two days. "She warned me that the Lu family is not done with us!"

"Huh."

Ji Ziyin placed her hand by her side. She was filled with disdain for Matriarch Lu's threat. "They've long offended Lu Zhi. Without him, so what if the Lu family isn't done with me?!"

"A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Should we…"

Before Ji Xiao could finish speaking, Ji Ziyin calmly said, "You don't have to care about her. She's just a fence sitter. She'll know which side she should fall on when I return from Country M."

Ji Xiao was intimidated by her and responded vaguely.

Ji Ziyin now completely treated him as one of her subordinates. "By the way, help me find a medicinal herb that can calm one's nerves. Incense is fine too."
