“The Ji family of today is no longer the Ji family from back then. Not all of their direct descendants have that person’s ability. I’m afraid he placed the wrong bet.”
Ji Ziyin was smart enough not to say anything.
Elder Leo looked at her when he finished speaking. After a pause, he patted her shoulder. “You don’t have to care about this.
“Although you’re not a direct descendant of the Ji family, just a side branch mber, as long as you can complete the mission outstandingly and suppress her, you can still attract everyone’s attention.”
Although you are not a direct descendant of the Ji family, just a side branch mber…
As long as you complete the mission outstandingly and suppress her, you can still attract everyone’s attention…
It was as if Ji Ziyin had been stripped naked and exposed to the public.
In the past, when Ji Lingfeng still valued her, she hated it the most when others ntioned that she was not a direct descendant.
However, Leonard was not soone she could afford to offend. She could only endure the other party’s unintentional humiliation.
“l know, Elder Leo.’
Leonard gently touched her shoulder and quickly retracted his hand. It was as if patting her shoulder was enough to show how much he valued her. He encouraged her with his words. “You can go back now. I have sothing to do.”
Ji Ziyin recalled what that person had said about Elder Xue personally receiving the mission for Qiao Nian. Then, she matched it to the way Leonard treated her. She could clearly feel the difference.
However, she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction and imdiately moved aside to make way. “Alright, Elder Leo, go ahead.”
Leonard simply encouraged her again. He then left without looking back.
Ji Ziyin watched as he left. Grabbing her cell phone, her eyes were venomous like a snake’s as she typed a ssage and sent it over.
Elder Xue called her in the evening.
“Hey.”
Qiao Nian had just finished a video call with Daji and knew he had gotten soone to deliver the package. She also conveyed her words to Continent F through him.
She had just hung when Elder Xue called her.
She stood up, walked to the window, and rubbed her swollen eyebrows. Then, she impatiently asked, “What’s the matter?”
At the apartnt entrance.
In a black car.
The chauffeur’s eyelids twitched when he heard the girl’s casual voice. He subconsciously peeked at the old man’s expression through the rearview mirror.
Elder Xue personally ca to deliver sothing, but the other party’s attitude was like this. No one even ca to pick him up.
However, the silver-haired old man’s expression did not change, as if he did not feel offended, and he actually said good-naturedly, “Have you forgotten that today you were supposed to receive the mission? I’m here to hand it to you.”
He rolled down the window and looked at the towering apartnt building. Then, he retracted his gaze and soothingly said, “Are you at your residence?”
“Mm, I am.”
Elder Xue calmly opened the door to get out. “Then wait for . I’ll bring it up for you.”
Qiao Nian ca to her senses. Considering his age, she suppressed her exhaustion and thought of taking a shower. “No need. I’ll co dovvn.” The chauffeur felt that this was the normal reaction.
Unexpectedly, the silver-haired old man had no intention of letting her.
happen to want to discuss it with you. I’m going up.”
The chauffeur was speechless.
“Give five minutes.” He took the envelope beside him and walked into the apartnt building.
Qiao Nian did not delay him any further. “Alright, I’ll wait for you..”
