"Haha, an outsider made him unable to even see his own grandmother."
"… "
Simon, who was standing opposite her, couldn't pretend that he couldn't hear anything, so he had to cover his lips with a champagne glass and said politely, "Mr. Ji is too concerned about this event."
Old Mrs. Xie curled her lips, looking unhappy. It was obvious that she didn't take Simon's words seriously, and her disapproval was written on her face.
Simon was just being polite to her and didn't really treat people like Old Lady Xie on the same level as Ji Lingfeng and Feng Yu.
Seeing that the other party was being disrespectful due to his age and didn't know how to be tactful and read his face, the smile on his face faded, he put the champagne glass back on the waiter's tray, brushed off the wrinkles on his suit, and said to Mrs. Xie: "Madam, I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you."
He made an apologetic expression, but his attitude was very casual.
Mrs. Xie's face froze. She could tell that Simon didn't take her seriously, so she could only swallow her anger and nodded: "President Simon, go get busy."
Simon said sorry, turned around and said something to his assistant, then strode away.
"Mom." At this time, Xie's mother came over and supported Mrs. Xie's arm.
The old lady was not in a good mood and looked at her with a bad face. She even ignored her and said with gritted teeth, "Who does he think he is? He treats me like this!"
Old Mrs. Xie knew it clearly.
The reason why these people were not as warm to her as before was related to her previous falling out with Xie Tingyun and Xie Yun.
But she had been used to being strong all her life, and seeing such a huge gap in treatment, she couldn't accept it and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Whenever she felt uncomfortable, she would think of Xie Yun who didn't even come home, and then she would think of how Ji Nan left today without even saying hello to her.
Mrs. Xie couldn't hide her sarcasm and lowered her voice and said, "Humph, I'm waiting to see them make a fool of themselves!"
After saying.
She didn't even look at Xie's mother's expression, but turned around and said coldly, "Let's go over there too."
She couldn't wait to see the Ji family fall from grace this time.
Mother Xie had a smile on her face, her expression was not as obvious as that of old lady Xie, but her eyes were flickering with gloating and joy.
She carefully supported Mrs. Xie's arm and said in a relaxed and cheerful tone, "Mom, please walk slowly."
**
In Mingshui Mansion.
People who have passed the inspection have entered the villa one after another.
This is a townhouse.
Although it is called a villa, in fact, judging from the area and architectural style, it is more like a medieval castle.
The villa is big enough and has enough rooms inside. The various similar room corridors look like a maze and you will get lost in it if you are not careful.
When Qiao Nian and the others went in, they could no longer see where the people who had gone in earlier had gone.
Based on her experience in field sniping in Continent F.
Those people must have found a safe hiding place when they came in, preparing to observe the terrain before going out to look for diamonds.
Some people may hold the mentality of reap the benefits by sitting back and hiding themselves without coming out first.
When the fight outside has almost ended and the things have been consumed, they will come out and easily take the things.
…
Qiao Nian hadn't figured out how she was going to get the diamond, but instead raised her eyes to observe the surrounding environment.
