Old Xue’s face darkened.
He slowly put down his phone and fell into silence.
He never thought that Qiao Nian had blocked his number!
But when he just called, the phone didn't even ring and was immediately mechanically told that the call couldn't be connected. This is the case when the number has been blocked.
After Elder Xue realized that he had been blocked by Qiao Nian, he had no choice but to go back and tell the Archbishop and Lei Kai, "Just do as you said."
The archbishop had expected this result. He stood up leisurely, not forgetting to mock the old man in green: "Mr. Xue, have you made up your mind? Don't you want to call and ask again?"
Mr. Xue's face turned darker, like the ash at the bottom of a pot. His stern face made him look even more unhappy as he said, "No need."
Quentin stopped teasing him and went out with a half-smile on his face: "Since this is something we decided together, please inform the families under your jurisdiction."
Lei Kai watched him walk away, and said politely to the old man in green, "Mr. Xue, I'll go and notify the people below first."
"Go." The old man in green nodded submissively, and watched Lei Kai leave. Then he pursed his lips, suppressed his grievance, and followed him out.
In the end, the family that suffered the most from this incident was their conservative family, and he didn't know how to talk to the families below him.
Mr. Xue got a headache just thinking about the scene of him having to inform others about this matter.
But he couldn't go back on his word since everyone had already discussed and decided on it, so he had to go ahead and say it no matter how much of a headache it was.

at the same time.
It was spring outside the Red Alliance headquarters.
The wind tonight is unusually restless, blowing heavy and restless in everyone's heart.
Ever since Yingzi received the call from Nie Qingru, he couldn't wait to find Lu Zhi and told him about Nie Qingru's situation.
Ask Lu Zhi to stop immediately.
However, to his surprise, Lu Zhi did not stop immediately as he thought. Instead, he sat in the wheelchair, put his hands on his sides and raised his head slightly, looking at him as if he heard something funny: "You said I should stop now."
Shadow immediately realized what he meant and frowned: "The Queen is in the hands of Ye Wangchuan's people!"
Lu Zhi propped up his chin with one hand, starry eyes flashing with an inexplicable brilliance as he looked at him, and asked leisurely, "So?"
Shadow didn't understand what he meant, so he could only patiently emphasize again: "The Queen is in the hands of Ye Wangchuan's people. They said that if anything happens to Ye Wangchuan, they will hurt the Queen... So we must stop immediately to ensure the Queen's safety!"
"Oh, I understand." Lu Zhi finally looked away and said slowly, "But you don't seem to understand our relationship. We are not subordinate to each other, but just partners. You have your own goals, and I have mine. If something happens to your people, it only means that you didn't think things through, and it has nothing to do with me as your partner."
"Mr. Lu, what do you mean?" Shadow pulled a long face.
Lu Zhi tapped the wheelchair armrests with his fingers, a nonchalant smile on his lips. He gently raised his eyelids, and his eyes were breathtakingly beautiful, but without a trace of emotion: "Didn't I make it clear enough? I don't have to be responsible to the Queen."
Shadow breathed a sigh of relief, and with murderous intent, he quietly reached for the weapon at his waist: "Are you kidding me with the Queen's life?!"
The bodyguard behind Lu Zhi warned him in a deep voice: "I advise you not to move."
