1732 âOrdinary Personâ Qiao Nian
âInstead, we should find out why Ji Nan suddenly came back.â
The Ji familyâs future should be inherited by Ji Nan, but Ji Lingfengâs attitude was vague.
Moreover, as a member of the Ji family, Ji Nan had no interest in black gunpowder at all. It could be said that he knew nothing about it.
Ji Lingfeng paid special attention to Ji Ziyin.
!!
As time went by, the Ji familyâs hearts naturally became unsettled. Some people placed their chips on Ji Ziyin and wanted to take a gamble.
Ji Xiao was one of them.
He wasnât interested in an unimportant girl from Country Z at all. Compared to Qiao Nian, he was more concerned about Ji Nanâs movements.
Ji Ziyin explained her thoughts to him politely. âI just feel that Qiao Nian isnât as simple as she looks. She gives me a very familiar feeling, but I canât explain it for a moment.â
Ji Xiao frowned. He still didnât want to pay attention to a girl from Qing University. âTheyâre leaving tomorrow. It doesnât matter to us if thereâs anything complicated behind this.â
âTheyâre leaving tomorrow?â Ji Ziyin was usually busy. She had to go to the research institute and study. She was so busy every day that she didnât have time to sleep.
She rarely took small matters of the Independent Continent to heart.
For example, when outsiders would leave.
If it werenât for Qiao Nian this time, she wouldnât have paid attention to any foreign forces.
âTheyâll leave early tomorrow morning.â Ji Xiao took a sip of coffee and put down the cup. âThey and the other forces in the Paradise Hotel will leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I think youâre thinking too much. Since our people canât find out anything about Qiao Nian, it means that this is a coincidence. No matter how hard you try, you wonât be able to find anything. We might as well focus on serious mattersâ¦â
Ji Ziyin didnât say anything and lowered her eyes as if she was thinking.
After a while, she suddenly looked up and said to the others, âIâll take some time to go to Country Z after Iâm done with my experiments.
âI still think that she wouldnât want to look at the family tree for no reason. Besides, black gunpowder isnât something that anyone can come into contact with.â
She had a feeling that Qiao Nianâs ability to handle things with ease was shocking.
Ji Ziyin was shocked, but at the same time, she became more vigilant.
She certainly didnât think anyone was more gifted than she was in this area, but when it came to black powder, she was a cautious person. Since she couldnât find out the other partyâs background at this stage, she had to check again.
âDo you care so much about Qiao Nian? Sheâs just an ordinary person. How can she be worthy of your attention? If youâre really worried, you can just send someone to Jing City to investigate. Thereâs no need to make a trip yourselfâ¦â Ji Xiao still didnât think much of it. His words and actions didnât hide his contempt for Qiao Nian at all. âSheâs just an outsider. She canât even be considered a member of the Independent Continent! Thereâs no need for you to care about such a person.â
However, Ji Ziyin was unmoved. She narrowed her eyes and said calmly, âSecond Uncle, you donât have to say anything else. Iâve already decided.â
Ji Xiao frowned when he saw her persistence. He more or less disagreed with her, but he and Ji Ziyin could be considered to be using each other.
He couldnât put on airs in front of her, but he did not think much of it.
A girl from Country Z had âcoincidentallyâ learned a little about black gunpowder manufacturing. Ji Ziyin was taking such a small matter too seriously!
