His attitude was cold.
Weighing things out, he said, “This is an internal matter of our family, you shouldn’t worry about it. You’ve just entered the Privy Council, so you should worry more about the matters over there. After all, it’s not easy for you to enter the Privy Council. As elders, we still hope you can gain a foothold there…
Ji Ziyin’s beautiful face twisted slightly, and her smile froze, but she did not dare to flare up. She could only say with a fake smile, “Thank you, Second
Elder.”
“It’s fine.” Second Elder patted her shoulder lightly.
Then, he turned around and said to the other elders, “Clean up this place. Let’s go back to the old residence to discuss.”
“Sure.”
The other elders did not want to bother with Ji Ziyin and dispersed to deal with the aftermath.
Ji Ziyin was abandoned. She stood rooted to the ground and watched as the elders dispersed.
So many people were in the hall, but no one paid attention to her.
Everyone walked past her as if she did not exist. They did not even look at her.
Ji Zlyin’s expression was uncertain. Finally, she couldn’t hold it in anymore and left!
Seeing her leave, Fourth Elder looked at Second Elder with cold eyes as he mocked, “She’s gone. We won’t offend the reclusive families, right?”
Second Elder finally understood.
He looked coldly at the tragic situation at the entrance of the branch hall and snorted coldly. “Look at our current situation. Does it matter if we offend them or not? Since it’s the same either way, we might as well offend them!”
Fourth Elder’s smiled at the “we might as well offend them”. He raised his hand and pressed on his shoulder, silently comforting him. “1 think Qiao Nian is not bad.’
Second Elder understood what he meant but did not immediately relent.
Qiao Nian wasn’t bad. She was also one of the two successors of the direct line of descent.
The problem was…
Back then, they had made things too ugly with Qiao Nian. Both sides had said that they would not accept each other anymore. Now… he could not bring himself to look for her!
Second Elder frowned. “Let’s wait and see!”
“Miss Qiao, the Ji family might not appreciate your help. Why do you have to…” MO Dong was driving.
He had always been straightforward. He said whatever was on his mind. “Look at those old things. They hid behind you like smart monkeys when you stood up for them. They let a junior stand up for them! What a joke!”
Qiao Nian was playing with her phone and had just replied to Ye Wangchuan’s message. She looked up and supported her chin with her hand, then lazily said, “I’m not helping them.”
“Then you are…?” MO Dong was puzzled.
Qiao Nian paused for a second as she thought of someone.
Instead of answering his question, she asked, “Hasn’t he asked you to keep an eye on Leonard? What has Leonard been doing recently?”
“He?” MO Dong immediately reacted. “You mean Master Wang?”
Qiao Nian nodded.
He continued, “That old man has been asking about antiques, calligraphy, and paintings recently. He seems to have taken a fancy to a painting.”
Qiao Nian asked excitedly, “What painting?”
MO Dong thought about it long and hard and then said, “l remember! It seems to be an oil painting of a flower. A sunflower? It seems to be this flower. I heard from my subordinates that the one hanging in Continent Mt s museum is a fake. The real painting is in the hands of a certain faction of the independent continent..”
