Chapter 2868 Elders, We Can Talk About Serious Matters Now

Qiao Nian returned to normal. Her grip on the cell phone tightened when she saw a dot flas.h.i.+ng red on the computer screen. "I want you to help me find clues about that s.h.i.+p."

"Mm?"

Qiao Nian's gaze was calm. "I have a feeling that the boat's owner is Lu Zhi."

Lu Zhi had never come to look for her ever since she made things clear to him last time.

However, he would occasionally post on his Moments.

It was still corny sweet nothings.

Qiao Nian saw them when she entered WeChat, but she did not 'Like' them anymore.

Last time, they made it very clear that they were all adults. It would not be appropriate for her to 'Like' Lu Zhi's posts anymore.

Of course, she did not delete his contact information.

After all, they had gone through life and death together. Lu Zhi had a different meaning to her compared to ordinary friends.

"You think it's him?" Ye w.a.n.gchuan only paused for a moment before asking.

Qiao Nian was not sure. "I just feel that I haven't checked in this direction."

Ye w.a.n.gchuan fell silent for a moment.

Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows when she heard the sound of clothes rubbing against each other. Then, he said in a low voice, "I'll check in Tian Chen's direction and see if they have any s.h.i.+ps in the nearby seas."

"Okay." Qiao Nian had a clear conscience and did not think too much about it.

Unexpectedly, before he hung up, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Don't mention this name again."

Qiao Nian was stunned. Realizing Ye w.a.n.gchuan was jealous, she felt a little amused but did not say anything. She agreed readily. "Okay."

She agreed so readily.

Ye w.a.n.gchuan had no reason to continue harping on this issue.

He rubbed his tightly knitted brows and recalled his narrow-minded reaction just now. Involuntarily shaking his head, he returned to his usual n.o.ble and lazy self and then softly said, "Rest early."

"Alright, you too."

Qiao Nian hung up but did not go to sleep immediately.

Instead, she sat on the chair and looked at Lu Zhi's WeChat. After a short silence, she exited the dialog box.

If Lu Zhi wanted to speak, he would have sent her a message long ago.

Since he did not say anything Then, even if he was behind this, it was meaningless for her to ask.

Qiao Nian got up and called Feng Yu to tell him that she was going back to the independent continent tomorrow

**

The independent continent was not peaceful.

Tianshui Private Clubhouse.

A luxury car parked outside. Then, the person hurriedly got out of the car, afraid that they would be seen if they dallied outside. The chauffeur covered their face with a black umbrella and they quickly entered the clubhouse.

Ji Xiao walked through the corridor and heard a steady stream of voices when he reached the private room that Ji Ziyin told him about.

The waiter opened the door for him.

Only now did he realize that other than him and Ji Hongyuan, the other elders of the Ji family were all here.

More than ten people were present in the big private room.

He looked around and realized that other than these familiar faces, a hooked-nosed elder was sitting arrogantly in the master seat.

Ji Ziyin sat beside the old man, looking very familiarly at him.

The two of them turned their heads to say a few words.

Ji Xiao vaguely remembered seeing him before. While he was still in a daze, Ji Ziyin saw him and took the initiative to greet him. "You're here? Come and sit."

Ji Xiao lowered his head and quickly walked over. He slightly bent his back and sat in an inconspicuous corner.

Ji Ziyin's eyes flickered. She was quite satisfied with his 'tactfulness'. After all, Ji Xiao was the youngest in the entire room and had little experience.

She stopped looking at him and turned to the others with a smile. "Elders, we can talk about serious matters now."
