"We just needed to reach a series of financial cooperation with Smith Bank. She came to us at this time to propose exchange conditions. I agreed based on the interests of the island and had no selfish motives. Who knew that something would go wrong?"
"Don't you know something will happen? Don't you know why you can't let Mudi go?" Ying Shi's grandmother retorted with anger.
The smile on Elder Mu's face gradually faded: "Elder Ying, we are all from the island and we are dedicated to working for the island. You are going a bit too far."
"I'm not telling the truth? You made it clear..."
At this time, the old man who had been silent suddenly said: "Okay."
The volume is neither high nor low.
Just suppress the momentum of the two people who were arguing.
They both shut up at the same time.
Then everyone looked at him.
The Tenth Elder then glanced at everyone, and with an absolute sense of oppression, he slowly said: "Ying Shi and the others are working for the island. We definitely can't just give up like that, otherwise how will those people outside the island see us?"
Then he swept his sharp eyes over the old man on the right, raised his chin slightly, and said arrogantly, "Is that so? Elder Mu?"
Mu Qingtian gritted his teeth and forced a smile: "Of course."
The Tenth Elder said 'hmm' indifferently, and seemed to be very satisfied with his attitude, and then gave orders to the others: "No matter what conditions F Continent offers, we will agree to them. Bring the people back first."
"Isn't this... too cowardly?" someone asked in a low voice.
The eagle eyes of the Tenth Elder fell on him. Just one glance made the hair on the man's back stand up and he broke into a cold sweat: "Tenth Elder, I just..."
The Tenth Elder slowly put away his murderous look and asked, "Do you have any other way to ensure Ying Shi's safety?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Who can guarantee this
That Qiao Nian from Continent F was too bold.
She was too capable. She dared to do things that Nie Qingru didn't dare to do.
No one present dared to guarantee that Qiao Nian would not take Ying Shi's life.
The parliament hall fell silent.
The Tenth Elder made the final decision without giving the others a chance to continue. "It's decided. I'll send a team to contact her and see what she wants. By the way, make sure Ying Shi is still alive."
He waved his hand, signaling others.
"Let's go."
There were people sitting on both the left and right sides, but when he spoke, he had the momentum of thousands of troops and horses, and he suppressed the right wing so that they could not say a word.
The crowd dispersed under his command.
Mu Qingtian could no longer maintain the smile on his face and was the first to leave.
As soon as he left, the group of people who followed him also left the council hall. In a blink of an eye, only Ying Shi's grandmother and the representative of Elena's family were left.
Ying Shi's grandmother propped up the table and stood up, saying meaningfully, "I hope some people can take care of their own family members. This is an island, and those who don't know would think that going abroad to study means going out to become a female star."
Female celebrities are socialites.
She meant that Elena was like a socialite, who was able to please all men and was not a good person.
The representative of Elena's family turned pale on the spot.
However, the other party just said this and left without giving her a chance to refute.
She held her breath and tried to maintain her dignity. After everyone left, she asked the Tenth Elder, "Tenth Elder, who are you calling me?"
Even though she is old, Charlize Theron still has the charm of her youth. Her wrinkled face still shows some of her youthful handsomeness, and her sharp features are three-dimensional and charming.
