Her calm attitude made Mo Xi tremble with fear. Even if he was as patient as possible, he couldn't keep his composure anymore.
While the people from the Ji family were still here, he covered his lips with his fist, lowered his voice, and whispered, "Miss Qiao, are you here to look for someone at the Ji family?"
When Qiao Nian was in the coffee shop, she only told him that she was coming to Ji's house, but she didn't tell him what she was going to do there.
Mo Xi was also willing to risk his life to accompany a gentleman. He didn't even report to Ye Wangchuan and just went all out to accompany Qiao Nian.
He was very clear about the position Qiao Nian held in his boss' heart. If anything happened to Miss Qiao, even ten lives of his would not be enough to compensate!
So Mo Xi made preparations for both scenarios.
Before he came, he sent a message to Mo Dong, telling him that they were coming to Ji's house, and then told Mo Dong that if they did not leave Ji's house within two hours, he would ask Mo Dong to ask Wang Ye to bring people to rescue them.
Mo Xi had a backup plan, so he felt more confident.
But he was also curious about what Qiao Nian was doing at Ji's house.
"Do you know anyone from the Ji family?" Mo Xi asked tentatively again.
Qiao Nian simply put down the teacup, pushed his baseball cap down an inch, and sat in his seat in a relaxed manner, looking a bit irritable as if he hadn't slept well.
But she was interesting in restraining her coldness in front of Mo Xi. Hearing this, she replied nonchalantly, "No, I came here to get something."
"Uh..." Mo Xi didn't expect this answer, and looked at her puzzledly: "Does the Ji family have your things?"
He knew that Qiao Nian was the uncrowned king among hackers.
Sun from the Red Alliance.
But Miss Qiao is into computers, and the Ji family is into gunpowder. What can Miss Qiao get from the Ji family
Mo Xi still hasn't figured it out.
soon.
Someone came to the reception room.
Mo Xi put away his curiosity and immediately raised his alert. He saw seven or eight people coming into the reception room.
In addition to the head of the Ji family whom he knew, there was also the sixth elder of the Punishment Hall, Ji Hongyuan, and several young faces.
Ji Hongfeng, who had previously competed with Qiao Nian for a place in the First Research Institute, was on the list.
As a young junior, Ji Hongfeng is not a direct descendant of the Ji family. He has little influence and basically walks at the back.
When he came in and saw the girl sitting in the reception room, his expression suddenly changed and became gloomy.
It’s a pity that at this moment, no one cares about his emotional changes, and all attention is focused on the girl sitting in the living room.
Even Ji Hongyuan, Ji Lingfeng and other influential people in the Ji family were paying attention to the girl's every move.
Ji Hongyuan's face became terribly gloomy from the moment he saw Qiao Nian. When passing by, he snorted intentionally or unintentionally to express his dissatisfaction, then he waved his hand and found a place to sit down, staring at the girl fiercely with his tiger eyes, as if he was staring at a prey that came to his doorstep.
When Qiao Nian suddenly came to visit, everyone thought she had figured it out.
I've had enough of the hard-to-get game.
I want to return to my roots!
At least a few people in the Ji family who knew the inside story had more or less this idea in their minds.
This was the second time Ji Lingfeng had seen Qiao Nian. He looked at the girl in front of him carefully before asking with restraint: "I heard you came to get something, what do you want?"
He Lin's face was full of anticipation, and he couldn't wait to hear Qiao Nian say that he wanted to get his identity back.
Only Ji Hongyuan's old face showed no warmth at all. His eyes were icy cold as he spoke in a sarcastic tone, "We gave you a chance at the beginning, but you didn't want it! Now you come to us again. What do you think of the Ji family? Do you think this is a place where you can play house with your child?"
