Chapter 2882 Are the Ji Family and the Forces on the Continent F Combined Qualified to Challenge?
Everyone turned to look at her.
Qiao Nian's fair face was expressionless, and no emotions could be discerned from her eyes.
Instead, she raised her eyebrows.
Her cold black eyes stared straight at Ji Hongyuan and the others, and her voice was low and hoa.r.s.e. "We have to add Continent F to this matter."
"What?" Ji Hongyuan was confused.
The corners of Qiao Nian's mouth twitched as she smiled frivolously. "Are the Ji family and the forces in Continent F combined qualified to go against the reclusive families?"
**
Ji Nan had ordered the servants to lock down the old residence and not allow anyone to enter or leave.
Ji Ziyin had no way of finding out what was going on inside.
She waited anxiously at her residence for half a day, but the Ji family's old residence was like an impenetrable wall that could not be breached.
Leonard and Ji Xiao were both with her.
Ji Xiao wasn't qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the discussion between the elders.
Seeing the anxiety and anger flas.h.i.+ng across the young woman's face from time to time, he put down his teacup and comforted her. "Ziyin, do you want to sit with me? I'll order the servant to make you a cup." Ji Xiao treated this place as his territory. "Do you want tea or coffee?"
Ji Ziyin walked back and sat down. "Coffee, then."
She was used to drinking coffee.
She had no interest in tea.
However, Ji Lingfeng liked to drink tea in the past. To cater to his preferences, she even studied tea culture.
Now that she no longer needed to please Ji Lingfeng, she could naturally be her real self.
Ji Xiao ordered a servant to make coffee for her.
Leonard looked at her fidgeting with a raised brow. Then, he picked up his cup. "You don't think they dare to offend the reclusive families, do you?"
Ji Ziyin lowered her head slightly. "Qiao Nian is back."
"Mm?" Leonard glanced at her.
Ji Ziyin stared at her right leg; it looked no different from an ordinary person's. Her fingertips were slightly cold as she softly said, "She's not the type to sit back and wait for death."
Leonard looked away.
He could not deny it.
Ji Ziyin suddenly raised her head and looked at him. "Elder Leo, didn't you tell me that Ji Lingfeng and Ji Nan were dead?"
It should be a guaranteed hit if the Empress took action.
Ji Ziyin wondered if the faction she had joined was as capable as the rumors said.
Leonard put the cup back on the table. "What do you mean?"
Ji Ziyin bit her lip. "I just didn't expect Ji Nan to return with Qiao Nian. This exceeds our expectations"
Leonard interrupted her. "Don't forget who you are!"
She was just a p.a.w.n.
Ji Ziyin immediately understood what the other party wanted to say. Humiliation immediately surged from the bottom of her heart and spread through her limbs.
She stopped breathing for half a second.
Soon, she weighed the pros and cons. "I'm sorry, Elder Leo."
Leonard still did not give her any face. He only mumbled coldly, "Mm."
He did not even look in her direction.
Ji Ziyin felt a little awkward.
Fortunately, Ji Xiao came back at this moment with freshly brewed coffee. He did not realize the subtle s.h.i.+ft in the atmosphere.
He handed the coffee cup to Ji Ziyin. "Here's your coffee, Ziyin."
"Thank you." Ji Ziyin took the advantage to ease her awkwardness.
At this moment, she saw her cell phone's screen light up from the corner of her eye.
Ji Ziyin put down the cup and grabbed it.
It was a message from Ji Hongyuan, saying he was on his way.
Ji Ziyin heaved a sigh of relief.
She put down the cell phone as if nothing had happened and said to Leonard, "Sixth Uncle said he's on his way here. Looks like the matters at the Ji family are settled."
