Nie Tao watched her enter the gate of the First Research Institute. He wanted to chase her, but he knew that was not a place he could enter.
He got back into the car with a cold face.
“Bang!”
The driver, who witnessed the whole process, heard the loud sound of a door closing from the back seat. He could tell that his master was angry, so he asked cautiously.
"Boss Nie, where are we going now?"
"Ji family."
Nie Tao opened the car window irritably and looked at the First Research Institute base outside. He was overwhelmed. He said to the driver, "Let's go to Ji's house first."
…
Ji family.
He Lin received him.
Nie Tao sat in the reception room and waited for three hours, but still hadn't seen Ji Lingfeng. He gradually became restless and stood up frequently.
Finally someone came in from outside.
"Lingfeng..." Nie Tao thought Ji Lingfeng had come. Just as he smiled and went to greet him, he found that only He Lin had come.
"Why is it you?" He looked behind He Lin, and saw no one there. He couldn't help but frown, unable to hide the anger on his face: "Where's Ling Feng? Why didn't he come?"
Facing the question, He Lin walked in calmly and said, "I came here to tell you about this matter. The clan leader is not feeling well and has gone back to his room to rest. How about we come back another day?"
"What?!"
Nie Tao's first reaction was to suspect that there was something wrong with his ears, or that He Lin did not explain it clearly.
“I waited for three hours.”
He waited for three hours.
He Lin told him that he couldn’t see anyone
He Lin apologized, "I'm sorry. After the patriarch was examined by the doctor, several elders came to talk to the patriarch about the dock. I didn't pay attention and it took three hours. When the elders left, the patriarch was tired. Mr. Nie, look, I'm really sorry."
Nie Tao was slow, not stupid. Even if he was not very perceptive, he could see that he was being played. He was immediately furious, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he said in a trembling voice: "His uncle came all the way from Continent M, and he made me wait here for 3 hours in vain. Isn't that inappropriate!"
He Lin lowered her eyelids and apologized: "The clan leader is indeed not in good health. I'm sorry."
His body didn't move at all, which clearly showed that he wouldn't be able to meet Ji Lingfeng today.
"good!"
Nie Tao was so angry that veins on his neck bulged. He pointed at him and said several good words in a row, then turned around and walked away!
He Lin looked up at his departing figure indifferently, and sent away two servants: "Go, send Mr. Nie away."
Immediately, two servants from the old house chased after him.
The living room returned to silence.
At this time, the assistant who had been following He Lin for many years appeared out of nowhere and watched Nie Tao leave angrily.
He said in a somewhat worried tone: "He Zhu, would it be bad for us to do this? After all, he is the clan leader's uncle."
He Lin didn't even raise his eyelids, his face was still wooden, and he usually had no expression, but this time there was a rare hint of contempt in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
"What uncle? He just called himself that."
Nie Qingru and Ji Lingfeng have no blood relationship and are not biological mother and son.
Nie Tao and Ji Lingfeng have even less connection!
As the most capable person around Ji Lingfeng, He Lin has seen many fake relatives of the Nie family come to him to seek benefits over the years.
In the past, the patriarch tolerated these people due to the delicate balance with the hidden family.
Now that balance has been completely broken after the clan leader was poisoned and on the verge of death, and was pulled back from the brink of death by Miss Qiao.
Everyone had already fallen out with each other, but Nie Tao still had the nerve to come and claim to be the clan leader's uncle. It was ridiculous!
