The people of the family who firmly defended the faction of the Ten Elders frowned instantly. Just as Grandma Ying Shi was about to speak, she met Mu Qingtian's gaze looking at her.
There was a sinister look in his eyes, different from before, as if he was completely enraged by something.
Grandma Yingshi was horrified.
Then I heard the peaceful voice of the Ten Elders.
"You guys go out and wait for me first."
…
ten minutes later.
There were only three people left in the huge council room.
The ten elders, Mu Qingtian and the housekeeper.
Of course, there are also protectors hiding in the darkness. These people are tacitly regarded as dead by them, and it doesn’t matter whether they are present or not.
The butler wanted to leave. He wanted to find a chance to inform the outside world, but Mu Qingtian didn't give him a chance. He seemed to have no intention of bringing him with him the whole time, and didn't even tell him to leave at this moment. The butler had no way of finding a chance to pass on the message, and he didn't dare to act rashly...
But he was anxious and restless, like an ant on hot pot.
"What do you want to tell me alone?"
"Where's Sai Lan?"
Mu Qingtian opened his mouth and asked.
The gray-robed old man narrowed his eyes.
Mu Qingtian didn't wait for his answer and said, "Let Sai Lan come too. I have something to ask her."
The Tenth Elder was not a moderate. Seeing this, his dignified face showed no emotion at all. He just said to him calmly: "You'd better be okay."
Mu Qingtian is a moderate person. Today, there is no smile on his face. He taps the table with his bent fingers. The black conference table reflects his sinister eyes. "Of course there is something. It's a big thing."
…
Sailan's residence.
"Father is looking for me?"
"Yes, Elder Ten asked the young lady to come over."
The man was very respectful and didn't make any eye contact with her. He kept looking down at his toes. Sai Lan narrowed her eyes and didn't think of asking him anything. She said calmly, "I'll change my clothes and come right over."
The man made way for her to go upstairs to change her clothes.
Shi Lao was not a gentle father. Sai Lan knew very well what kind of person her father was and how tolerant he was of her.
It took her less than two minutes to change her clothes and go downstairs. The car was already waiting outside.
She bent down to get into the car and went to the meeting room accompanied by the visitor.
…
Sai Lan lives in the confidential area.
It is not far from the Houses of Parliament.
A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of the parliament. She got out leisurely and walked towards the parliament.
She met many people on the way.
The Brown family, the Dowell family, Thomas, Garcia...are all familiar faces, even Ying Shi who I haven't seen for a long time.
Ying Shi glanced at her in the crowd and was caught by Sai Lan.
She looked towards Ying Shi from a distance and gave him a meaningful look. Ying Shi dodged as soon as he met her gaze.
Sai Lan's words became more and more meaningful.
She always felt that the other party knew some secret, perhaps he had noticed something from her few words and made some associations.
But right now she couldn't find the time to test it.
She would find time someday to try to find out why the other party avoided her every time he saw her. If it was as she guessed, the Shadow Family might need to change its heir.
Thinking this, Sai Lan walked into the corridor regretfully, leaving everyone's sight.
Dowell and others cannot come here.
The Carter Miller brothers had a chance.
The two of them usually had a good relationship with him, and when they saw him evading, they gently elbowed him in the waist and abdomen and said in a low voice, "Are you afraid of Aunt Lan?"
"No." Ying Shi avoided the question expressionlessly, refusing to admit his own gaffe. (End of this chapter)
