"Oh?" Nie Qingruo stopped and looked at him with a playful expression: "You want to join me in dealing with Qiao Nian?"
"Yes." Mr. Xue looked at her staring at him with a half-smile in her eyes, and he always behaved very properly and frankly.
Nie Qingru gradually suppressed the sarcasm in her eyes and asked calmly, "Why? Aren't you very close to her?"
Elder Xue frowned and pursed his lips: "Because she has affected the reputation of the hidden family."
"Oh? Just for this?" Nie Qingru didn't quite believe it.
Elder Xue stood up and looked at her very frankly, and said in a deep voice: "Empress, there are many conflicts within the Hidden Family, but we are a whole to the outside world. I don't want anyone to shake the foundation of the family. This is also my principle and bottom line!"
His meaning was very clear.
Qiao Nian's existence has begun to shake the foundation of the secluded family, which is a situation he does not want to see.
Nie Qingru probably understood what he meant, and finally turned around and gave him a straight look: "How are you going to deal with her?"
"My idea is..." Naturally, Mr. Xue came this time to discuss a solution with her, so he told Nie Qingru all his ideas.
After hearing what he said, Nie Qingru did not immediately say whether this method was feasible or not. Instead, she showed a thoughtful expression and said, "Let me think about it first."
"Sure." Mr. Xue was not in a hurry and picked up the tea beside him.
He slowly blew away the foam on the surface and watched the tea leaves floating in the white porcelain cup. He seemed to think of the girl's unruly face. Finally, he sighed, lowered his head and drank a sip of water.
Nie Qingru thought for ten minutes, but still couldn't give him an answer right away, so she said to him with a sullen look, "Go back first, I'll discuss it with you after I've thought it through."
Elder Xue had been here for a while, and he stood up tactfully, not bothering her any more: "Then I'll go back first, Queen."
"Go ahead." Nie Qingru's expression softened and she reluctantly gave him a good look.
The butler came over and respectfully gestured "please".
Elder Xue followed him and left first. After they left, no one else dared to disturb Nie Qingru. The servants quietly finished their work and left.
Nie Qingru was the only one left in the villa's living room, still sitting on the sofa. She picked up the indoor phone with her well-maintained hands and dialed a number.
The other end picked up immediately.
Nie Qingru put the receiver to his ear and without waiting for the person on the other end to speak, he ordered in a low voice: "Keep a close eye on Qixing these few days!"
"...Don't give him the chance to go out alone before Qiao Nian leaves. I don't have time to clean up his mess every day!"
"Yes, Queen."
Shadow was as loyal as ever.
Nie Qingru felt relieved and put the receiver back. Just as she was about to hang up, she paused and took it back, looking down and whispering, "Please help me find a time to make an appointment with Master Cheng."

Shadow was puzzled, but did not dare to disobey her order: "...Yes."
This time, Nie Qingru hung up the phone directly.

hotel.
Originally, Master Cheng had planned to have a simple celebration dinner with everyone at noon, but there were too many media interviewing him and he ultimately couldn't spare the time.
The celebration banquet was moved from noon to the next evening.
As a result, the next day at noon, Master Cheng received an invitation from Nie Qingru, who wanted to meet him.
He would definitely discuss this matter with Qiao Nian and Ye Wangchuan, so he came to find Qiao Nian as soon as possible.
