Seeing that the coffee was cold, He Lin quickly went to get him another cup and placed it on Ji Lingfeng's desk. He then took a step back and stood behind the man.
Ji Lingfeng picked up the cup and took a small sip before slowly putting it down.
The steam from the coffee filled his sharp eyes, making his facial features look much gentler.
Ji Lingfeng slowly asked, "What has Qiao Nian been doing recently?"
He Lin said in detail, "Little Miss got someone to cause a scene in Miss Ji's laboratory. She's either staying in the villa or going to the hospital to visit Feng Yu. Nothing other than that."
"Mm." Ji Lingfeng pushed the chair back, leaving a s.p.a.ce in front of him. He opened the first drawer with his left hand and quietly looked down at the old photo. He did not take it out.
He looked at it for a few minutes. Time seemed to have frozen on him. Even his well-ironed suit could not hide his fatigue.
He Lin was already used to him looking at the old yellow photo in the drawer in a daze, so he did not say anything and only tried to reduce his presence.
Ji Lingfeng caressed the person in the photo and then slowly asked, "Do you think the grudges of the previous generation should be repaid by the next generation? The previous generation did something wrong. Should the next generation bear the consequences?"
He Lin frowned and did not speak.
Ji Lingfeng closed the drawer again and placed his hand on the desk. Returning to his usual silent and cold self, he indifferently said, "Find more people to keep an eye on her. Recently, more and more people have come to the independent continent from Country M. The reclusive families have been acting strangely… The independent continent is about to fall into chaos!"
He Lin did not expect to hear such heavy news. He raised his head in shock, but Ji Lingfeng's expression was extremely calm as if he was already prepared.
He Lin's wildly beating heart slowly calmed down again. He lowered his head and obediently said, "Yes, Patriarch."
He understood what Ji Lingfeng meant.
The Patriarch asked him to find a few more people to keep an eye on Little Miss. He probably did not want to monitor the Little Miss's every move, it was more as a form of protection for her.
As expected, Little Miss was the direct descendant of the Ji family.
Ji Ziyin was just a clown from the beginning to the end!
…
Qiao Nian roughly flipped through Ji Qing's notebook. When she looked up again, the sky outside had changed.
The originally sunny weather suddenly changed. The gray sky showed signs of rain.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows. She stood up and pulled out the chair, then walked to the bed. Taking out a clean set of clothes from the closet, she walked straight to the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of water splas.h.i.+ng could be heard inside.
Qiao Nian showered quickly.
Fifteen minutes later, the sound of water gradually disappeared.
The girl opened the sliding bathroom door and walked out wearing a silk bathrobe with a white towel wrapped around her head…
Qiao Nian dried her hair in front of the mirror before leaving the bathroom.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Guessing who it was, Qiao Nian looked up lazily and said, "Come in."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan entered the room.
