Ji Xiao was nervous, but after all, a branch of the Ji family could thrive, and he was not one to be frightened. He immediately suppressed his doubts, without showing any sign on his face, and said coldly: "Don't scare me with the First Research Institute!"
"I'm a good friend of his father, I just asked him to come over for a chat. The First Research Institute doesn't need to take care of the family affairs."
Qiao Nian took out her cell phone, waved it in front of his eyes, bent her legs lazily, and said, "You can try it."
"..." The expression on Ji Xiao's face became unpredictable. He stared at the girl with his slanted eyes, as if he wanted to see whether she really had the ability to get the First Research Institute to come forward, or was just bluffing.
But Qiao Nian was wearing a baseball cap with the brim pulled down very low, and his mouth corners were raised nonchalantly, exuding a sense of calm and uninhibitedness.
That posture makes it hard to figure out.
In addition, she came to the InterContinental Hotel and clearly knew which room Xu Yi was in.
Ji Xiao didn't believe that a girl from another continent with no background could achieve this level of positioning skills. There must be someone helping her behind the scenes!
However, he has not achieved his goal since he brought the person here yesterday, so he can't help feeling unwilling. He stared at the girl with venomous eyes like a venomous snake, feeling a little hesitant.
Qiao Nian seemed to see through his reluctance and hesitation. She lowered her eyelashes and asked lazily, "The Ji family still doesn't know that you took Xu Yi away privately, right?"
As one of the three major families in the Independent Continent, the Ji family has become increasingly powerful in recent years and has long since crushed the other two families to become a unique existence in the Independent Continent.
She had met Ji Hongyuan and He Lin. Both of them seemed to be reserved and low-key on the surface, but they were actually extremely arrogant in their bones.
They looked down on everyone outside the Ji family, and even some people in the Ji family, who they didn't take seriously. This kind of people would not bother to attack a newcomer from the First Research Institute.
Only people like Ji Xiao and Ji Zinyin would go to such lengths to ask Xu Yi for help.
So she bet that the Ji family didn't know about Ji Xiao's private actions.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed. He looked at her vigilantly, without saying a word, but his eyes revealed a terrifying murderous intent, and it was clear that he had murderous intentions.
However, Qiao Nian didn't even take Ji Hongyuan seriously, so how could she take him seriously? Seeing the murderous intent in his eyes, she just said lightly: "I'll give you one minute. If you don't leave within one minute, I will let the people from the Ji family and the First Research Institute come here at the same time."
Ji Xiao was shocked and annoyed, his eyes were so fierce that he wanted to swallow her up, but he really couldn't figure out what confidence the girl in front of him had to dare to shout at him like that.
While he was hesitating, the girl had already turned on the stopwatch on her phone and started counting: "One minute countdown begins."
Shen Qingfeng was terrified as he watched from the side. Every second seemed so long. He was particularly afraid that Qiao Nian would completely anger Ji Xiao.
Ji Xiao is a member of the Ji family. If Qiao Nian angers him, the consequences will be disastrous.
However, unexpectedly, Ji Xiao took a deep breath, as if suppressing his anger, and said, "Just wait!"
Then he turned around, with his eyes full of anger, and said to the people around him, "Let's go!"
Shen Qingfeng saw with his own eyes that the usually arrogant and domineering Ji family quickly left the corridor and left in the elevator.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief, his back already wet with cold sweat.
The voice was dry and hoarse for a while: "Qiao, Qiao Nian."
