Chapter 2617 Why Don't You Open It For Everyone to See?

"Toy?"

Ji Xiao could not help but laugh. "You're giving the Patriarch a toy?"

Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and looked back at him impatiently. She said ambiguously, "If not?"

Otherwise, how could she get the real deal?

Qiao Nian rubbed her chin and thought about it.

It didn't seem impossible, but many people in the independent continent would not be able to sleep for a few days!

However, for Ji Xiao, it appeared that she could not afford to give him anything good. He looked at Ji Ziyin and raised his eyebrows maliciously.

Then, he said to Qiao Nian, "Since it's a toy model, why don't you open it and let everyone take a look? It shouldn't matter, right?"

These words revealed an arrogance that was quite uncomfortable. Feng Yu's face darkened. "Since when does the Ji family have to look at the price when accepting gifts?

"I'm not welcome since my gift is ordinary? Do I not deserve to attend the banquet?"

He Lin quickly comforted him. "Elder Feng, we didn't mean that. Don't misunderstand."

The elders also felt that it was not good for Ji Xiao to cause trouble on this occasion, so they tried to smooth things over.

Originally, everything was going well.

However, at this moment, Ji Hongyuan, who had always been at odds with Qiao Nian, took the opportunity to say, "I think what Ji Xiao said makes sense. Since she only gave us a toy, it's fine to open it and take a look. Everyone is just curious about it."

Ji Hongyuan was bold. "Isn't that so, Patriarch?"

Ji Lingfeng shot him a cold glare. He did not say anything and just exuded a dignified aura.

Ji Hongyuan could clearly sense his hostility. He s.h.i.+vered and shut up.

Ji Ziyin was a little fl.u.s.tered. She could sense that Ji Lingfeng's att.i.tude towards Qiao Nian had changed.

Suppressing her uneasiness, she walked forward and took the initiative to say to the girl, "Sixth Uncle and the rest are also curious about Miss Qiao's toy. We can just take a look, right?"

Feng Yu was annoyed.

He was about to stand in front of the girl.

Ji Ziyin was much higher ranked than Ji Xiao and the rest. She immediately narrowed her eyes and said dignifiedly, "Of course, if Miss Qiao is unwilling, we respect her wishes After all, it's not very expensive. It's normal if Miss Qiao doesn't want to show it to us."

She almost sounded considerate, but it was much more disgusting than Ji Xiao's straightforwardness.

Feng Yu frowned. He was a little angry now. "Is this how your Ji family treats guests?"

He held the girl's hand and said, "Qiao Nian, let's go!"

He Lin quickly stood in front of them. "Elder Feng, don't be angry. Please don't be angry."

Ji Lingfeng also glanced at Ji Ziyin and said indifferently, "Have you forgotten what I asked Ji Xiao to pa.s.s on to you?"

With just this sentence, Ji Ziyin stiffened and she could not move. She looked at the dignified middle-aged man with some grievance.

Unfortunately, Ji Lingfeng could not be bothered to look at her. He said coldly, "If you've forgotten, I don't mind saying it again in front of these people."

"Patriarch." Ji Ziyin panicked.

She did not expect Ji Lingfeng to be serious!

She had already repeatedly emphasized that she had a good relations.h.i.+p with the royal family of Country M. Wasn't she saying that her relations.h.i.+p with the reclusive families was extraordinary?

She was silent for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons in her heart. She was about to grit her teeth and walk towards Qiao Nian to admit her mistake.
