At the same time, the Ji family branched out on Rose Road.
The girl put the phone to her ear and said nonchalantly, "Come back first and we'll talk."
Mo Dong said no more: "Okay, I'll take the person back right away."
Qiao Nian hung up the phone and walked back.
Just then, Ji Zinyin, who had just sneaked out, also came in from outside.
She looked unwell, with her cell phone tightly clenched in her right hand. It seemed that she had just returned from making a phone call outside.
Qiao Nian was looking at her.
Ji Ziyin also looked up.
The two people's eyes met in mid-air.
Qiao Nian raised his eyebrows but didn't respond.
Ji Ziyin, however, quickly looked away as if she was guilty, and walked back to the elders as if nothing had happened.
"Someone from the Chamber of Commerce and the Hacker Alliance just came to me to inquire about the branch! I see the news is spreading more and more. Instead of pursuing responsibility here, we should deal with the aftermath first, so as not to let other forces laugh at us."
She suddenly offered to clean up the mess.
Several elders turned their heads and looked at her.
The fourth elder frowned and said unkindly, "You are talking about the aftermath at this time. Do you want us to pretend that nothing happened?"
Ji Ziyin curled up his fists, and with an embarrassed look on his face, he explained, "Fourth Elder, that's not what I meant."
"What I mean is that we don't have to pursue this to the end. The Independent Continent has never been involved in any behavior involving this organization. Now that we have captured a few people, let's first hand them over to the outside forces to see how they deal with them. As for the rest, we can slowly discuss..."
"… "
The second elder, the fourth elder and others had thought about the method she proposed before.
But now they were aroused by Qiao Nian, and no one wanted to see more than 30 people from the Ji family branch disappear for nothing.
Even the Second Elder who had supported her before couldn't help but frown when he heard Ji Ziyin's words in a light tone. The Second Elder said, "Is this your way of dealing with it?"
Ji Ziyin opened her mouth subconsciously: "I..."
Qiao Nian had already walked over from behind and said in his usual lazy and unfocused tone, "If they want to ask, let them ask me."
Ji Ziyin turned around and saw the girl's ostentatious face. She suppressed the gloom in her eyes and said with a fake smile, "You are joking. You are not from our Ji family. They can't ask you anything."
Seeing that Ji Zinyin seemed to have forgotten that she had been expelled from the family long ago, Qiao Nian just looked at her sarcastically and didn't talk to her.
He turned and walked in front of several elders, lowered his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I found Langke."
Several elders of the Ji family were immediately excited.
"So fast?"
"Are you sure you found him?"
"Where are the others?"
Qiao Nian's head hurt from hearing their chattering, so she picked a question to answer: "They are on their way back."
So fast
She thought for a moment and didn’t wait for the elders to speak: “It will probably take half an hour.”
The elders of the Ji family didn't expect that she would be so swift and decisive. She said she wanted to arrest someone, and the next thing she knew, she had already found the culprit.
The second elder looked at her steadily and said, "What are you going to do? We will listen to you."
When Ji Zinyin heard this, a bloody taste surged into her throat. She pinched her palms hard to rely on the pain to maintain her calmness on the surface.
But the trembling muscles on her cheeks still betrayed her inner feelings.
She was extremely uneasy at the moment!
