Both of them are smart people.
The silver-haired old man glanced at Xu Yi and the archbishop's servant again, then retracted his gaze indifferently, as if he didn't notice the three-point similarity between Xu Yi and the archbishop.

downstairs.
Ji Ziyin put down her bag, pulled out a chair and sat down.
She introduced Simon to John, and John started chatting with Simon.
Although Liao Quan and Ji Xiao were jealous, they knew they were not qualified to interrupt, so they just watched and smiled apologetically.
Lu Yiming seemed to have let it go and was very calm about all this. He just sat in his seat and ate quietly.
Ji Ziyin saw it and spoke to him in a low voice: "You, you don't want to talk to them?"
"With whom?"
Lu Yiming put down his chopsticks, saw the person she was talking about, and smiled: "We are not from the same world, so there is no need to integrate into it."
This is what he has been feeling most deeply recently!
Ever since Lu Zhi stopped helping the Lu family, the Lu family's status has plummeted.
Many of the families that used to interact with them have become cold towards them, as if their daily interactions were all fake.
So, he now deeply understood one thing.
That means you are not on the same level as the other person. Even if you have a pleasant chat with him/her in person, he/she will not take you seriously in private.
If that's the case, why should he go to the trouble to curry favor
When Ji Ziyin heard this, a flash of embarrassment flashed across her eyes, as if Lu Yiming was talking about her and she was touched in a sore spot.
But she quickly suppressed her annoyance, covered her lips with her hands and said, "I think this is a good opportunity. You can get to know John and the others. Doesn't Mrs. Lu want you to get to know more people?"
Lu Yiming just hummed but didn't move his body, obviously having no intention of taking any action.
Ji Ziyin was frustrated and gave up the idea of helping him. She looked down on him for not striving for progress and stopped trying to persuade him. At this time, John received the news.
"Excuse me, let me check my phone." He said to Simon, then picked up the phone on the table and took a look.
His expression changed at that moment.
Simon saw that he was frowning, and immediately asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
John became restless, rubbed his face, and looked over: "I received news that the arms dealer from Continent F is here too."
"?"
He thought Simon didn't know, so he explained, "It's David, the famous arms dealer in Continent F. I received news that he also came to Continent M for business."
Simon thought of someone faster than he did, without him having to point it out.
... Qiao Nian.
David came to the Independent Island just for Qiao Nian. This time he happened to be here on business, so he must go find Qiao Nian.
Simon had finally gotten in touch with the hidden family, but when he heard the news, his mood plummeted.
John didn't care what he thought, he stood up and said to everyone, "I'm going to go out and make a phone call."
Everyone knew that he must be going out to call the arms dealer.
Everyone in the box had different expressions, and John had already stood up and left the box.
At this time, Simon couldn't help but say, "I heard that someone has booked the top floor of the hotel today. Is he near the hotel today?"
Ji Ziyin frowned, put down her chopsticks, and said coldly, "I saw someone from the Privy Council when I was waiting for someone downstairs. The person eating on the top floor today is a big shot from the Privy Council and has nothing to do with them."
Whoever they are, there must be more than just Daji.
It was obvious that there was someone involved in her words.
