1795 Are You Sure You Didnât Provoke Anyone?
âZiyin, are you sure you didnât provoke anyone?â
Ji Xiao still did not believe Ji Ziyin had not provoked anyone. âThere were no signs before Bright Gate attacked this time. Moreover, they targeted our territory. Every step they took was precise. Itâs as if they were coming for us!â
There were many forces in the Ji family.
Ji Ziyin was only one of them.
The reason why Ji Xiao was so angry this time was that the Bright Gate seemed to be targeting the Ji Family, but the rest of the family was fine.
Only they suffered heavy losses.
âThink carefully about whether youâve offended anyone. If you have, letâs have a good talk with them. Itâs better to resolve enmity than to keep it alive. Moreover, Bright Gateâs style of doing things is too ruthless. Itâs best if we donât provoke them.â Ji Xiaoâs tone softened.
At this moment, Ji Ziyinâs mind was about to explode. Her mind was filled with messy thoughts as she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and vaguely felt that she had grabbed onto something, but it flashed past her fingers and slipped awayâ¦
âSecond Uncle, Iâm sure I donât know anyone from Bright Gate, let alone offend them. However, I really offended someone.â
The Jiang family.
Qiao Nian.
Ji Ziyin pursed her lips and her eyes flickered. She wanted to tell him about the situation in the capital when suddenly, her phone lit up again, and Ji Lingfengâs number was shown.
Ji Ziyin looked at it. Her expression immediately turned solemn.
She didnât dare to delay and picked up the call almost instantly. âPatriarch.â
She always felt a sense of superiority in front of outsiders. Even though she hid it well, the confidence in her bones still made her look superior.
However, when Ji Ziyin received this call, she was not impudent at all.
Even though she knew that the other party was only calling her and could not see her, she did not dare to relax at all. Her expression was solemn and respectful.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âPatriarch, why are you looking for me?â Ji Ziyin asked carefully.
A full three seconds passed.
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have just finished his work. His voice was magnetic and low as he asked in a low and hoarse voice, âHave you heard about the matter with Bright Gate?â
Ji Ziyin did not dare to hide anything from him. âI heard about it. Second Uncle just told me.â
âYeah.â
Ji Lingfeng responded with an âMmâ. No emotion could be detected in his voice.
Ji Ziyinâs scalp went numb. She opened her mouth, but Ji Lingfeng spoke again before she could say anything. âWhat do you think?â
Ji Ziyinâs heart raced as she gripped her phone tightly. Biting her lip, she replied in a low voice, âI⦠I donât know whatâs going on yet.â
She paused for a second and immediately continued, âBut Iâll investigate and figure out whatâs going on.â
Ji Lingfeng remained silent for a full minute.
The blood drained from Ji Ziyinâs face. Just as she was about to lose her cool, the manâs casual tone finally came from the other end. âSince youâve thought it through, come back.â
With that, Ji Ziyin could only hear the busy tone now.
Ji Lingfeng had already hung up.
She stood rooted to the ground for a long time, racking her brains for the meaning of his last sentence, but she couldnât figure it out no matter what.
Ji Ziyin walked back to the sofa and called the Ji familyâs people in the capital to arrange for a private plane to fly back tonight.
