After dinner, Qiao Nian went to prepare for the treasure hunt competition.
Ji Nan has already asked the second elder to talk to the elders of the Ji family. The Ji family now tacitly agrees that Qiao Nian will represent the Ji family to participate in the activities of the Independent Continent.
This year's Mingshui Mansion event can be described as a competition game organized by various forces in the Independent Continent, but it is more accurate to say that it is the first undercurrent collision since Ji Lingfeng's accident.
All the forces are trying their best to win the treasure hunt and become the new force to replace the Ji family.
…
Xie family.
Old Mrs. Xie and Mother Xie were sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room, seemingly drinking tea, but in fact, both of them were a little impatient.
Finally, the sound of a car stopping was heard outside the door.
Mother Xie put down her teacup first, moved her butt, and wanted to get up to greet her husband.
Old Madam Xie stared at him fiercely: "Why are you in such a hurry? You have no manners at all!"
Xie's mother's face turned pale. Due to the old lady's authority, she could only endure the humiliation of being scolded in public. She sat on the sofa with a red face, anxiously waiting for her husband to come back.
Fortunately, Mr. Xie didn't let them wait any longer. He parked the car and came in from outside. He walked straight over to greet the two of them: "Mom. Huimin."
"Yeah." Old Mrs. Xie responded with a nasal voice and said indifferently, "Did you see your sister?"
Father Xie took off his coat and handed it to the servant. His broad face showed no emotion. “Well, I was delayed by chatting with Yun’er.”
Seeing him walking past her, Xie's mother couldn't hold back her anger. "What did she say? Can Xinyao come back from abroad?"
Old Mrs. Xie was dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law interrupting her and glared at her. When she saw that she was not looking at her, she held her breath and turned to look at her son.
"What did Xie Yun say? She still refuses to go home?!"
She emphasized the word "go home" very much, and her anger was hidden in her words. She was extremely dissatisfied with Xie Yun's refusal to go home in the past few months.
"You went to her in person, and she will have nothing to say this time!"
Father Xie saw that both women in the family were chasing him and asking questions, especially his mother who was still in a condescending attitude. He couldn't help but hold his swollen temples and had a headache: "Mom, my eldest sister is not coming back. And about Xinyao...she asked me to talk to my brother-in-law. If the Nan family agrees, she will agree. If the Nan family doesn't agree, she won't help us lobby."
The person who wanted Xie Xinyao to never return to Independent Island was Nan Tianyi.
But part of the reason why the Xie family agreed was because of the relationship between Nan Tianyi and Ji Lingfeng. Now that Ji Lingfeng is in trouble, they certainly want to take the opportunity to get Xie Xinyao back.
It was not convenient for them to do this personally, so they thought of asking Xie Yun to mediate. Xie Yun and Xie Tingyun have always had a good relationship.
If Xie Yun came forward to ask Xie Xinyao to come back, Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi would probably not say anything.
They thought it was beautiful, but the reality slapped them in the face.
This time he went to see Xie Yun. Xie Yun also met him and sat down with him to have afternoon tea.
But the attitude has not changed.
As tough as ever.
I even feel like I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore.
Whenever Mr. Xie thought of this, he got a huge headache. He didn't know how to face his sister, nor did he know how to face his strong old mother at home.
really.
After hearing what he said, Mrs. Xie came to her senses from her initial shock. Her expression suddenly became extremely frightened and angry. She slapped the table, splashing the water on it.
