After he finished explaining to Qiao Nian, he turned around and introduced the people from the hidden family: "This is Qiao Nian, the future successor of our First Research Institute."
Feng Yu said this on purpose to increase Qiao Nian's bargaining chips.
really.
The two Privy Council members beside the hook-nosed man cast strange looks at Qiao Nian, which seemed to be more serious than their previous indifference.
However, the old man in the middle of them, Lei, was still sitting there expressionlessly, and did not say hello to Qiao Nian. He interrupted Feng Yu's introduction and said directly to the girl: "I called you here today to talk to you about your information. You filled in your information as a Z countryman. You are not from the Independent Continent?"
That's a pretty rude question!
Qiao Nian could sense his strong contempt and dissatisfaction from the tone of his voice and the look in his eyes.
Tsk~
She pulled the corner of her mouth, quite irritated, and said in the same impolite manner: "Ah, no."
Leonard's face suddenly darkened, and he looked her up and down: "You are a direct descendant of the Ji family, how can you not be from the Independent Continent?"
Zhou Zhou knew Qiao Nian's temper and looked over worriedly.
The girl really reached out and pushed down her cap, and said nonchalantly with her red lips slightly parted: "You are not from the Independent Continent, but you are also here in the Independent Continent?"
Leonard's expression became even more unhappy.
This attitude...does she know who she is talking to
Qiao Nian has always been a person who says, "I'll treat you the way you are." He looked at him impatiently and asked, "What do you want from me?"
She didn't want to waste time, so she said briefly: "If you have something to say, please tell me. I'm busy."
Feng Yu felt a chill on his back and was covered in sweat. He wanted to go up and grab this little ancestor. She was too irritating.
When had the Privy Council ever been treated so coldly? The hook-nosed man was so angry that his face turned green. Due to the people present, he endured it and took out the document and threw it on the coffee table and said, "We in the Privy Council do not accept Orientals, especially people from Country Z."
The Privy Council is extremely hostile to Oriental faces, or rather, they inherently look down on short Oriental people.
Leonard tried to speak to her calmly, but his tone still revealed his superiority: "I have an idea for you. If you really want to join the Privy Council, you can fill out a new form. The prerequisite is that you change your nationality from Country Z to an independent continent. We will reluctantly set a precedent for you."
This was also a compromise solution reached by all parties after they held an emergency meeting yesterday after receiving the information sent by Qiao Nian.
This time, the Ji family took a tough stance and refused to change people.
They were about to push Qiao Nian into the Privy Council.
But Qiao Nian is from Country Z, and the Privy Council will never allow her, a lowly race, to enter the core institutions. This is an insult to their hidden family and will lower their status...
"This is the result after we gave in. There is no room for maneuver. Please think carefully about it."
He said as a matter of course: "It only takes about half a month for you to change your nationality. I will give you ten days. Find someone to change your nationality and then send another application. We will review your qualifications again."
He nodded his chin, motioned the girl to pick up the documents on the table, and said calmly: "This is your application form. Take it back and read it carefully. It contains our requirements for you."
Qiao Nian had been standing sideways, with an extremely amused look on his face.
"I will stay in the Independent State during this period and finish your business. If you have any questions, you can come to me. My hotel room number is..." He didn't finish his words.
