He was not afraid of Ji Nan and Xie Yun.
How much trouble can an orphan and a widow cause
But Qiao Nian...
When Ji Hongyuan caught a glimpse of the girl's figure from the corner of his eye, his eyelids twitched and he was very scared.
Qiao Nian has always been unconventional, and doesn't care about rules and qualifications. She has a huge force behind her. No one can stop her from doing anything she wants.
Therefore, Ji Hongyuan didn't even dare to attack Qiao Nian when he entered the house, but went around to find trouble with Xie Yun: "Madam, don't forget. Even if Ji Nan is not the next clan leader, you are the former clan leader's wife. Please put the family first!"
Xie Yun was calm and asked him calmly, "Are you done?"
Ji Hongyuan was stunned by her attitude of making a great difference with just a little effort. He pursed his lips and said nothing more. He turned away with a cold face and joined the second elder and others: "I will never agree to let a direct descendant who has not acknowledged his ancestors take over the position of the next clan leader!"
When Qiao Nian heard his words, the corners of her lips curled up into a sarcastic arc: "Tsk."
Ji Hongyuan's scalp tingled at her sneer, so he had to keep a straight face and ask in a righteous manner, "What are you laughing at?"
Qiao Nian raised his legs and stepped on the chair: "Do you think I want to compete with Ji Ziyin for the position of the leader of the spear tribe?"
Ji Hongyuan immediately frowned: "Isn't it? Ji Nan has never studied gunpowder and has never been to a research institute. He is definitely not qualified to compete for a position. Only you..."
Qiao Nian interrupted him impatiently, his eyes slightly fixed: "Ji Nan is a direct descendant."
Ji Hongyuan was overwhelmed by her aura and was unable to respond for the time being.
Qiao Nian looked around the entire Juyi Hall, passing through every face, his eyes as cold and sharp as a knife: "When will it be your turn to decide on the position of the Ji family leader? Even the direct heir hasn't returned, and you've already decided on the next clan leader? And he's a thief? What, the Ji family is going to change its business and develop new businesses in the future?"
Ji Zinyin and her teacher Gu Hengbo were in cahoots with each other, and the academic theft was proven by an official announcement from the First Research Institute.
No matter how much Ji Hongyuan argues, he cannot clear himself of this fact.
The few elders in the Ji family who still had some backbone were slightly disappointed. They looked left and right, but they were too shameless to even look at Ji Nan and the others.
Qiao Nian didn't indulge them: "Oh, or are you so eager to curry favor with the hidden family behind her?"
"That's enough!" The second elder was exposed, and looked at her angrily, saying in a deep voice: "This is an internal matter of our family, and it has nothing to do with you! Did Ji Nan ask you to tell us this? Let him speak for himself."
It was as if a fire was thrown into Ji Nan's chest. His handsome face was cold and gloomy. He took a step forward and was about to take it all on.
Who would have thought that Qiao Nian would take the shoulder bag placed aside slowly, take out a black jade sculpture in the shape of an eagle from it, throw it on the table, raise his eyebrows and ask the second elder and others: "Do you know it?"
Xie Yun was shocked: "What is this?!"
The jade emblem that Qiao Nian casually took out was only the size of a palm, and there was a lifelike eagle carved on it.
The eagle's eyes seem alive.
She knew very well that the eye was made of extremely rare black diamond, so under the flow of light the eagle's eyes seemed to come alive, looking down on everything.
She recognized the badge.
How could the older guys in the Ji family who had lived longer not recognize what Qiao Nian took out? That was the seal that symbolized the patriarch's power.
