The second elder of the Ji family didn't know why she had such a strong sense of oppression at such a young age. He was a little breathless. He could only hold the rim of the cup with one hand and said, "I found out the day before yesterday. There are many forces involved in this incident. The No. 9 and No. 15 I arranged for you before, No. 15 was also instigated by someone to take your life when you were not prepared..."
"Ah." He sighed, looked the girl straight in the eyes, and said sincerely: "I was wrong this time. I almost hurt you."
Qiao Nian didn't say anything. He picked up the glass and drank some water to moisten his throat. He didn't comment on what the second elder of the Ji family said.
"How are you going to deal with this?"
Her relationship with the second elder of the Ji family was not like that between Zhong Yilu and Feng Yu. Even though the other party was older and an elder, it was impossible for him to receive the same treatment as Feng Yu and Zhong Yilu from her.
He said sorry, and she said forgiveness.
There are no such good things in this world.
Qiao Nian's question was particularly direct, which made the second elder of the Ji family slightly stunned. He was unsure of her thoughts for a moment, and hesitantly said slowly: "We have discussed it, and the result of the discussion is that there are too many forces involved, and we can't count them one by one. The best way is to catch one of the forces and punish it severely, killing the chicken to scare the monkeys!"
He slowed down and looked at Qiao Nian again: "Of course this depends on your opinion. Miss Qiao is the victim of this incident. We respect your opinion."
Qiao Nian saved the Ji family's reputation this time, so it was reasonable for him to give Qiao Nian enough face.
Qiao Nian placed his fingers on the table, tapping gently, over and over again as if he was tapping on the heart of the second elder of the Ji family, making him feel inexplicably uneasy.
He waited anxiously for a long time.
Then I heard the girl ask him.
"Which force are you going to severely punish?"
"Sanjiumen." He said the answer that they had already discussed.
Qiao Nian remained silent, as if she was not surprised that he would bring up the Sanjiu Gates. However, her hands tapping on the table did not stop, making the Second Elder of the Ji Family even more confused about her thoughts.
"Ms. Qiao, No. 15 is from the Sanjiu Sect. We decided to start with them after considering this. The Sanjiu Sect had stopped us from going to Mingshui Mansion to pick you up before you came out. So, all in all, it is the most reasonable and least likely to be criticized for us to deal with them."
Qiao Nian paused for a second as he tapped the table. He slowly raised his head, looked at him with dark eyes, and said directly, "What about the Chamber of Commerce Alliance? How are you going to deal with it?"
The second elder of the Ji family was fidgeting when asked, and his eyes dodged as if he had touched upon a hidden difficulty. "President Simon came to my house to apologize the next day, and then we discussed some cooperation projects. What we old guys meant was that... there are many forces involved this time. He is just one of them. Since he has a good attitude, he should also take the initiative to apologize. Otherwise..."
Qiao Nian laughed, a laugh that leaned back in his chair. The look in her eyes seemed to penetrate the dark side of his heart, making him unable to raise his head: "So you sold me out."
The second elder of the Ji family blushed and frowned nervously: "Miss Qiao, that's not what we meant."
Qiao Nian interrupted him directly: "How much did it sell for?"
The second elder of the Ji family choked in his throat and stopped talking.
Qiao Nian nodded, propped up his chin and said unceremoniously: "Who gave you the courage to sell me out unilaterally? Do you think I should cooperate with you and agree with your decision?"
