He was smart enough not to mention that Ji Zinyin was caught in the act, and only vaguely stated that Qiao Nian and Lei Ting came to Ji Zinyin's house and took her away.
Ji Hongyuan has placed all his hopes on Ji Zinyin, even at the cost of offending Xie Yun... So when he heard that Ji Zinyin was forcibly taken away by the Leonard family, he didn't care about anything else and rushed to the Ji family's old house in a hurry to ask for help.
There aren't many people he can find now.
Ji Hongyuan almost immediately went to find the second elder.
Then he immediately told the other party: "...Ziyin was suddenly taken away by the Reynard family. Qiao Nian must have been behind it! No matter how much she is the only one in the Ji family who entered the Privy Council, the Ji family will have to rely on her to help with connections in the future. We can't let her be taken away like this!"
The Second Elder had been busy interrogating people from the Dongji Organization recently. Seeing Ji Hongyuan talking to him so anxiously, he was extremely calm and was not persuaded by his few words.
Instead, I found a chair to sit on, sat down, and asked him slowly, "What do you want me to do?"
Seeing that he was not in a hurry, Ji Hongyuan became more and more anxious, and danced in front of him: "I hope you can come forward to find that evildoer. We are all family after all, why would she team up with outsiders to deal with her own people?"
The second elder's face was slightly cold, and he listened patiently: "You want me to go to Qiao Nian to plead for mercy?"
Ji Hongyuan himself was also embarrassed. He paused for a moment before continuing, "I originally wanted to go find her myself, but you also know that she and I don't have a good relationship. I was afraid that if I went to find her, she would refuse to see me. So..."
He didn't finish his words and looked at the Second Elder.
The meaning is obvious.
He hoped that the second elder would come forward to look for Qiao Nian.
The second elder was quite sober and replied without thinking: "It's useless for me to look for her. Qiao Nian won't give me face."
"Last time you..." Ji Hongyuan became anxious.
The second elder knew what he was going to say: "So you still remember the tragedy that happened in the branch hall last time. I thought you had forgotten it."
Ji Hongyuan opened his mouth and stood there feeling more and more uncomfortable: "Of course I remember...but doesn't that incident have anything to do with Ziyin? Those people didn't say it had anything to do with Ziyin."
The Second Elder frowned upon hearing this, not wanting to respond to his request at all. He simply stood up and told him an impossible solution: "Instead of looking for me, you might as well look for Young Master Nan. Young Master Nan has a better relationship with Qiao Nian than I do. If he can intercede for Ji Ziyin, perhaps Qiao Nian will raise his hand for his sake."
"How could Ji Nan help..."
The second elder interrupted him expressionlessly: "Except for him, no one in the Ji family has the 'favor' you want with Qiao Nian!"
As he said this, he left Ji Hongyuan behind and walked away.
Ji Hongyuan stood there with his face turning pale and blue. He knew very well that what the Second Elder said about asking Ji Nan for help was just an excuse.
The Second Elder never thought of helping Ji Zinyin!
Ji Hongyuan now didn't know where to start.
He stood there for a while, and the people from the Ji family who passed by pretended not to see him, and no one greeted him when they passed by him.
This shows how unpopular he is in the Ji family now.
Ji Hongyuan really couldn't stay there any longer, so he stomped his feet and had to leave angrily.
He walked out of Ji's house, got in the car, and told the driver with a sullen face, "Go to the hospital."
