He Lin followed Xie Yun all the way to Ji Lingfeng's residence. At one point he almost couldn't keep up with Xie Yun and had to speed up to catch up.
"lady."
"… "
Xie Yun had no intention of paying attention to him. She walked away without looking back, striding forward.
Seeing that she was about to break into Ji Lingfeng's office area, He Lin became anxious and didn't care about hierarchy. He quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop her from rushing in.
"Ma'am, how about you wait outside for a while while I go in and talk to the clan leader?"
Xie Yun narrowed her eyes, with a kind of imposing aura on her body. She looked him up and down: "You dare to stop me?"
"How dare I..." He Lin couldn't help but let out a bitter smile and put down his hand blocking her: "But Madam, you should be aware of the current physical condition of the patriarch. I am worried..."
He should have lived a mediocre life, but he was promoted to his current position by the clan leader.
He Lin certainly didn't dare to commit an offense.
But the clan leader's body is currently too weak to argue with his wife. If the two of them quarrel again, he doubts whether the clan leader can still force himself to attend today's meeting.
Seeing that her expression had eased, He Lin dared to whisper: "Madam, you know the patriarch's physical condition, he..."
The stern look in Xie Yun's eyes faded, but she did not mean to back down: "I just want to go in and talk to him for a few words."
He Lin knew he couldn't stop her by looking at her attitude. If he forcibly stopped Xie Yun from entering, it might alarm those people in the Juyi Hall.
He had no choice but to make way for her and said, pursing his lips: "The clan leader is inside."
Xie Yun glanced at him and said nothing. She walked past him, crossed the corridor, and pushed open the door of the study where Ji Lingfeng usually worked.
'Click', the door closed.
Although He Lin was anxious and worried that Xie Yun would clash with Ji Lingfeng, he had a more important task at this critical moment and could not stay outside all the time. He stood outside for a few minutes and did not hear any big noise from inside, so he gritted his teeth and went to do what Ji Lingfeng had asked him to do.
…
in the room.
After Xie Yun rushed in aggressively, she was not as emotional as He Lin had imagined.
Instead, after seeing the man in a neat suit sitting behind the desk, he walked to a few steps away from him, watched him open the drawer, and silently put an old photo back.
When he looked up at himself again, there was no wave in his deep eyes, as if he saw an old friend: "Come on, sit down."
Ji Lingfeng pointed to the sofa next to her, indicating that she could sit down and talk.
Xie Yun took a deep breath, but her legs did not move. She stood still, facing him. Her eyes slid across his thin face, and she asked directly, "Are you going to hand over the Ji family to Nian Nian today?"
Ji Lingfeng mentioned this matter to her a few days ago.
She disagreed at the time.
The reason for disagreement is very simple.
She didn't care how complicated the grievances of the previous generation of the Ji family were. As a mother, she only wanted to protect the interests of her son.
So she reacted very strongly at that time. She had no intention of talking to him at all and clearly rejected Ji Lingfeng's proposal.
But from the moment she received the message yesterday, she knew that this man didn't take her objection to heart at all and still insisted on doing what he had decided.
Xie Yun was originally in a state of anger before entering the room, but the moment she saw him, all the anger disappeared.
