Outside the Privy Council.
Ji Ziyin was about to get into the car when she saw an unfamiliar number flashing on her phoneâs screen. Her starry eyes narrowed as she bent down to get into the car and instructed the chauffeur, âGo back first.â
âVery well, Miss.â
Leonardâs familyâs chauffeur turned around and drove towards her residence.
Ji Ziyin then accepted the call. âHello.â
Her voice was neither fast nor slow, and it was very authoritative.
The person from Leonardâs familyâs side branch first introduced themself, then he told her the whole story. After, desperate, he could not find a way to tell her. âMiss Ji, youâre close to Elder Leo and youâre also a member of the
Privy Council. Can you tell me who I provoked this time? Who exactly is that
Zhui Guang? Whatâs their background?â
Leonard had given him a death order to wipe his own ass before leaving the house.
However, after asking around, he only knew that the other party was from Country Z, was young, and was half an artiste in the entertainment industry⦠None of these identities were substantial in front of the reclusive families. He could not figure out what went wrong.
Ji Ziyin already understood Qiao Nian well enough in the past two years. Thus, she immediately knew who he had offended when he mentioned Zhui Guang.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Not answering immediately, she asked, âWhatâs Elder Leoâs attitude towards this matter?â
âHim?â
âYeah.â
âHe didnât say anything. He got angry and then left. The Privy Council probably has official matters for him to deal with.â
Ji Ziyinâs eyes were filled with disappointment when she heard this.
She rolled down the window and took a deep breath of fresh air. Listening to the wind blowing in from outside, she lightly said, âYou offended the Ji family.â
âArenât you from the Ji familyâ¦â
Before the man could finish his sentence, Ji Ziyin sneered coldly. âIâm talking about the Ji familyâs direct line of descent. Iâm just from the side branch.â
The man was also from the side branch of Leonardâs family. Of course, he knew how big the gap between the direct line and the side branch was.
He did not expect to provoke the Ji family of the independent continent. Anxious, he could only ask her for help. âMiss Ji, you two are family. Why donât you help me think of a way? Iâll definitely remember your kindness. If you need me in the future, lâ¦â
âYou donât have to be so polite.â Ji Ziyin did not let him finish. Her eyes flashed as she played with hair by her ear, revealing her fair side profile; she looked very much like a socialite at this moment. âl donât have a good relationship with her, so I canât help you much.â
At this moment, her tone changed. âButâ¦â
The other party was like a drowning man clutching at a straw. He hurriedly asked, âBut what? Miss Ji, just say it clearly. Donât beat around the bush.â Ji Ziyinâs lips curled up. She gently placed her hand on her knee and elegantly said, âThere are a few people she values in Beijing. One of them is her aunt.
You might be able to think of a way from this aspect.â
Leonard did not know that Ji Ziyin had come up with an idea behind his back. He went to the Privy Council to look for Elder Xue and ask him to stop Qiao Nian.
Unexpectedly, Xue Cong, that old fart, refused to help. He returned to his residence with a stomach full of anger and found that the person from the branch family that had come to look for him had already left.
He asked a servant when he left.
The servant said that the person from the branch family left him a message before they left, saying that they had already thought of a solution and told him not to worry.
Leonard frowned. He did not know what idea the other party had come up with..
