"Let's take a step back and say that even if I fall in love with him, why would I bother competing with a girl from outside with my status?"
"Finally, I want to say one more thing."
She looked at Shadow, who seemed calm and composed, but her tone was unusually tough: "The island is most afraid of outsiders finding out about the news."
"The Queen should be very clear about the rules of the island. Even if she knows a lot of people on the island and has cooperated with the island for many years, she is not a native of the island after all!"
"Let's not trouble her to worry about the affairs on our island. The marriage is just talk and has not been confirmed yet. In the end, it may not be me who will marry him. Before the Queen tries to use this to convince me, it's best to respect my privacy."
Shadow was so upset by her retort that he didn't know what to say to convince her for a while. After a long silence, he played the emotional card.
"Shadow Ten..."
He just started a conversation.
Elena on the opposite side gestured to him to stop and looked at him deeply: "If it weren't for his face, I wouldn't have talked to you for so long."
She no longer gave Yingzi face, propped up her hands, and stood up: “Uncle Ying, I have friends waiting for me upstairs, so I won’t chat with you.”
Shadow watched her pay the bill and leave without looking back.
Although he had expected this result, he did not expect Elena to leave no room for negotiation and speak so bluntly and clearly.
After he finished the cup of coffee in front of him, he walked over to call Nie Qingru.
"The Queen."
"Miss Elena is unwilling to get involved. I have tried my best to persuade her, but she still does not want to be involved in the dispute in Continent F."
"I'm sorry, I'm incompetent."
…
It was still daytime in Continent M.
When Nie Qingru received the call, even though she had expected it, she still couldn't help but get angry at the other party's behavior. "Humph, she's just a little girl, and she's acting like she's the mistress of the island before she even enters the Tenth Elder's house."
"Queen, what should we do next?" Shadow ignored her words and asked directly for countermeasures.
Nie Qingru had a terrible headache.
The driver opened the door for her. She bent down and got in the car, watching the door of the Leonard family slowly close. She then thought that she had made a wasted trip here in Lei Kai as well.
"Qiao Nian doesn't dare to touch me. I am her grandmother. Unless she is not a human being and has no human feelings at all, she won't touch me."
"Queen..." Shadow seemed to have guessed what she was going to do and tried to stop her: "You can't risk your life."
Nie Qingru was very firm: "I must save Xicheng!"
"Besides, that evil creature and I are related by blood after all. She won't kill me. At most, she will just threaten me."
Yingzi really wanted to say that that was before the accident, but it was different now. Their act of stealing almost caused Xu Yi to lose his life.
Given Qiao Nian's unyielding character in this regard, this time may be different from any previous time.
Otherwise, why did Qiao Nian capture Zhai Shao for so long and never hurt him, but suddenly wanted to send him to Continent F for public execution this time
It can be seen that Qiao Nian was really angry this time.
"Queen, I hope you will think carefully about this matter. After all, this matter involves your safety. The island and the Reynard family are unwilling to help. It is far from enough to rely on only Mr. Xue to protect you..."
"I have made up my mind."
Nie Qingru did not give him the chance to continue persuading her.
"You don't have to say anything more."
