Shadow only took a glance and then withdrew his gaze from the woman, holding the red wine, and reminded her coldly: "Several elders of the Privy Council are waiting for you. Do you still want to meet them?"
Ji Ziyin pursed her lips, her eyes flickering.
When she looked up again, she had already made up her mind: "The Queen personally helped me with this, how can I live up to her kindness?"
Shadow pulled the corner of his mouth to cover up the disdain in his eyes, and took a step forward: "Well, let's go."
He walked in front.
Ji Ziyin took the opportunity to send a message to Ji Xiao, asking him to help her delay for two more days, saying that she was sick and could not go back for the time being.
She saw the message on her phone screen indicating it had been sent successfully. Ji Zinyin narrowed her eyes, held her head high and followed the shadow into the venue.
This time, the cocktail party was hosted by the Queen herself, and many people from upper-class families of the hidden world came.
At the cocktail party, people were drinking and chatting, and the air was filled with elegant and cheerful violin music. Ji Ziyin followed the shadow and came in, attracting the attention of many people from the hidden family...
She raised her neck slightly, like an elegant upper-class person, and under Shadow's introduction, she began to get to know the circles that she had never been able to reach before.
In the corner of the crowd.
Yu Xinlan's side was much quieter.
The Yu family suffered a heavy blow this time, and it is not known how long they can stay in the circle of hidden families. She was able to come this time because of the royal family of the M Kingdom, and was brought to the cocktail party by John.
But even so, everyone is a smart person and no one is willing to help her at this time. They all treat her as a plague god and try to avoid her.
There was no one around Yu Xinlan, and compared with Ji Zinyin, she could be said to be in extremely poor condition.
If this situation had happened before the fall of the Yu family, Yu Xinlan would never have been able to accept it and would have had no way of staying here any longer.
However, this time, maybe it was too much of a blow to her, she actually calmly accepted the huge gap in front of her. She just stood in the corner, shaking the red wine glass in her hand, and coldly watched Ji Ziyin's highlight moment at this moment.
John noticed her in the corner, said something to the person chatting with her, and walked forward with a glass of wine: "Why don't you go meet some people?"
The Yu family is related to them, and the royal family of country m did not participate in Yu Qingliu's plan, but when the Yu family was defeated, they did not add insult to injury.
Seeing her uncle coming back, Yu Xinlan's oval face finally showed some emotion. She rolled up her eyelashes, lowered her eyes and said softly, "Even if I go, they won't be willing to pay attention to me. There's no need for me to embarrass others and myself."
"Don't think like that." John sighed and was about to comfort her.
Yu Xinlan raised her head and smiled at him, much more mature and steady than before: "People say that the hidden family is a whole. Now I think the hidden family is just like this."
"Everyone is united for the sake of interests! If the interests change one day, these people will also change, so the only way is to become strong yourself."
John was about to frown and stop her from talking nonsense.
Yu Xinlan drank the wine in her hand, put down the cup, and said to him casually: "Uncle, thank you for bringing me here, but it's not necessary."
"I go first."
After she said that, she walked away without looking back.
From Yu Xinlan's elegant back, there is absolutely no sign of any attachment to the circle of the secluded family.
John stood there and watched her leave, finally shook his head, looked at Ji Ziyin who was following behind the shadow, and pursed his lips.
Ji Zinyin climbed to the top by stepping on the Yu family, but the Yu family was defeated.
This is the wrong person.
