"Toy?"
Ji Xiao couldn't help but laugh: "You just gave the clan leader a toy?"
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows, looked back at him with an irritated look, and said in an ambiguous tone, "What else?"
Otherwise, could she get the real thing
Qiao Nian stroked his chin and thought about the possibility of getting the real thing.
… It doesn’t seem impossible, but there are many people in the Independent State who can’t sleep for several days!
However, Ji Xiao understood that she couldn't afford good things, so he turned to look at Ji Ziyin and raised his eyebrows maliciously.
He turned around and said to Qiao Nian, "Since it's just a toy model, how about opening it for everyone to have a look? It shouldn't matter."
The condescending tone revealed in these words made people feel uncomfortable. Feng Yu frowned and mocked him: "Since when did the Ji family consider the price when accepting gifts?"
"I only gave you an ordinary gift. Do I not deserve to come to dinner today?"
He Lin hurriedly comforted him: "Mr. Feng, we didn't mean that, please don't misunderstand."
Several other elders of the Ji family also felt that it was not a good idea for Ji Xiao to make such a fuss in this situation, and they also tried to smooth things over.
Everything was moving in the right direction.
At this time, Ji Hongyuan, who had always been at odds with Qiao Nian, took the opportunity to speak up: "I think what Ji Xiao said makes sense. Since she only gave a toy, it's okay to open it and take a look. Everyone is just curious about what the toy is."
Ji Hongyuan was even more audacious: "Right, clan leader?"
Ji Lingfeng glanced over with a cold look and just stood there without saying a word, but his whole body exuded an aura of majesty without even being angry.
Ji Hongyuan clearly sensed the hostility in the man. He couldn't help but shudder and suddenly shut up.
Ji Zinyin was a little flustered when she witnessed this scene, mainly because she felt that Ji Lingfeng's attitude towards Qiao Nian had changed.
She suppressed her uneasiness, walked forward, and took the initiative to say to the girl: "Sixth Uncle and the others are also curious about what toys Miss Qiao gave us. It should be okay for us to just take a look, right?"
Feng Yu felt upset when he saw her.
He was just about to stand in front of the girl.
Ji Ziyin was much more skilled than Ji Xiao and the others, so she immediately lowered her eyes and said dignifiedly, "Of course, if Miss Qiao doesn't want to, we respect her wishes... After all, it's not a very expensive item, so it's normal for Miss Qiao not to show it to others."
These words seemed to be spoken with consideration for others, but to everyone's ears, they sounded much more disgusting than Ji Xiao's straightforward words.
Feng Yu frowned and became a little angry: "Is this how you, the Ji family, entertain guests?"
He turned his head and reached out to pull the girl's hand: "Qiao Nian, let's go!"
He Lin hurriedly stood in front of the two people: "Mr. Feng, please don't be angry, please don't be angry."
Ji Lingfeng also glanced at Ji Ziyin and said calmly, "Have you forgotten what I asked Ji Xiao to convey to you?"
With just this sentence, Ji Ziyin's whole body froze and she couldn't move. She looked at the majestic middle-aged man with a feeling of grievance and disbelief.
It was a pity that Ji Lingfeng didn't even bother to look at her, and said coldly: "If you have forgotten, I don't mind saying it again in front of these people."
"Clan leader." Ji Ziyin panicked.
She didn't expect Ji Lingfeng to be serious with her!
She has repeatedly emphasized that she has a good relationship with the royal family of Kingdom M. Isn't that saying that she has a special relationship with the hidden family
She was silent for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons in her mind, and was about to grit her teeth and walk towards Qiao Nian to admit her mistake first.
