Nie Qingruâs face frosted over as she glared at him.
If Quentin had been afraid of her, he wouldnât have stood on the neutral side for so many years. âYou indeed have the imperial power, but donât forget that the Privy Council has the right to oversee. Even the Empress has to be supervised by the Privy Council! The reclusive families are not your property alone.â
Nie Qingru naturally understood that the reclusive families represented the interests of hundreds of families.
Seeing that the people in the parliament hall were starting to talk again, she had no choice but to take a step back. âIâll give you an explanation.â
It was not a big deal that Nie Qixing was exposed to having a private woman.
However, the problem was that not only had he lost Country Mâs first place at the weapons exhibition, but he had also been discovered entering and leaving the hotel where that woman was stayingâ¦
One couldnât help but think that he was a playboy who lost his ambition and couldnât be of much use!
This was more fatal than scandals like illegally owning a laboratory and participating in a gray business clubhouse. At the very least, it accurately dealt a blow to whether Nie Qixing could inherit her position.
Nie Qixingâs scandal was enough to make these people unhappy.
If she hadnât suppressed the news of Nie Qixingâs disability and told the public that his eye and leg still had a chance of recoveringâ¦
The Privy Council would have turned hostile long ago.
Now that Nie Qixing had caused this scandal so close to the weapons exhibition⦠Nie Qingruâs temples throbbed, and she couldnât help but press the space between her eyebrows.
Almost at the same time, she thought of the person behind thisâQiao Nian!
She knew this evil creature wouldnât know its place and would definitely take revenge on her.
As expected!
Fortunately, this matter was neither big nor small. As long as she found that woman and dealt with her, she would be able to give the Privy Council an explanation.

âNie Qingru has already come out of the Privy Council. Thereâs a high chance she will immediately deal with the people in the hotel and clean up Nie Qixingâs mess.â
Ye Wangchuan ordered someone to keep an eye on their every move. Of course, he could receive the news immediately.
As soon as Nie Qingruâs car left the Privy Council, he immediately found out from the hotel.
At this moment, the girl was sitting on the chair with her cap pressed down. She was spinning a pen in her hand. The black pen spun nimbly between her fingers, making her feel quite frustrated.
âThis is just the beginning.â
What she wanted was for Nie Qingru to make a choice.
Between Nie Qixing and her reputation and future, which one did she want more?
Ye Wangchuan raised his eyebrows. He knew her very well. âDo you want Gu San to remind Nie Qixing?â
The pen landed on the table. As if tired of playing, she leaned her head back. âYes, remind him.â
âOkay.â Ye Wangchuan sent Gu San a message asking him to remind Nie Qixing that Nie Qingru was about to go to the hotel to look for the woman.
Then, he naturally bent down to pick up the pen and put it back on the pen holder. His gaze was deep, and the girlâs cold face was reflected in his eyes.
âHave you thought it through this time?â
Qiao Nian subconsciously looked up and met his deep eyes. She immediately understood what he was asking her. âIâve thought it through.â
She leaned against the back of the chair. She was very relaxed, but her eyes were like a cold lake that could not be melted. A faint mist shrouded them. âI gave him a chance. He has a death wish. I can only fulfill his wish!â
She wouldnât let Nie Qixing off this time.
After all, Nie Qixing had a death wish.
She wanted to see the same situation happen again. Was her younger brother more important than her daughter? Or would she always be the most important person in her heart?
