Ji Xiao was smart enough not to ntion that Ji Ziyin had been caught red-handed. He only vaguely said that Qiao Nian had brought Lei Ting to capture Ji Ziyin.
Ji Hongyuan had already placed all his bets on Ji Ziyin. He did not even hesitate to offend Xie Yun previously… Therefore, upon hearing that Ji Ziyin had been forcefully taken away by the Leonard family, he couldn't care less and rushed to the Ji family's old residence to get reinforcents.
He couldn't find many people now.
Ji Hongyuan went to look for the Second Elder almost imdiately.
Then, he imdiately said to the other party, "… Ziyin was suddenly taken away by Leonard's family. Qiao Nian must be behind this! No matter what, she's the only person in the Ji family who entered the Privy Council. In the future, the Ji family will still need her help to pull strings. We can't let her be taken away just like that!"
Recently, the Second Elder had been busy interrogating the East Pole Organization's people. At what Ji Hongyuan told him, he was extrely calm and was not convinced by his words.
Instead, he sat down on a chair and slowly asked, "What do you want to do?"
Ji Hongyuan saw he was not in a hurry and beca even more anxious. He gestured. "I hope you can co forward and find that evil creature. We're family, after all. Why would she join forces with outsiders to ss with her own people?"
Second Elder's expression turned cold. "You want to plead with Qiao Nian?"
Ji Hongyuan was also rather embarrassed. He paused before continuing, "I wanted to look for her myself, but you know I don't have a good relationship with her. I'm afraid she won't see , so…"
He looked at Second Elder without finishing.
The aning was clear.
He hoped that Second Elder would co forward to persuade Qiao Nian.
Second Elder replied without thinking, "It's useless. Qiao Nian won't give face."
"Last ti…" Ji Hongyuan was anxious.
Second Elder knew what he was going to say. "So you still rember the tragic incident at the branch hall. I thought you had forgotten."
Ji Hongyuan felt even more uncomfortable. "Of course, I rember… But isn't that matter unrelated to Ziyin? Those people didn't say it had anything to do with her."
Second Elder frowned. Not wanting to bother with him anymore, he simply stood up and gave him an impossible solution. "You might as well look for Young Master Nan. Young Master Nan has a better relationship with Qiao Nian than . If he can intercede for Ji Ziyin, perhaps Qiao Nian will let it go on his account."
"How could Ji Nan help…"
Second Elder interrupted him expressionlessly. "Other than him, no one in the Ji family has any chance of getting the 'favor' you want from Qiao Nian!"
He left Ji Hongyuan alone after he finished speaking.
Ji Hongyuan stood rooted to the ground, his face alternating between green and white. He knew well that Second Elder was just trying to get him to ask Ji Nan for help.
Second Elder had never thought of helping Ji Ziyin!
Ji Hongyuan didn't know where to start.
He stood there for a while. The Ji family mbers passing by pretended not to see him. When they brushed past him, no one greeted him.
It was obvious how unpopular he was in the family.
Ji Hongyuan really could not stay any longer. He stomped his feet and had no choice but to leave angrily.
He left the old residence and got into the car. With a dark expression, he instructed the chauffeur, "Go to the hospital."
