She vaguely heard them mention words like "small pill" and "Miracle Doctor", but she was far away and did not hear what they said clearly.
That person quickly realized that she had come down and immediately shut up.
"Grandfather, I'll go up first," Yu Xinlan stood up and said softly to Yu Qingliu without even looking at Ji Ziyin.
Yu Qingliu saw Ji Ziyin coming down and frowned slightly before relaxing. He waved at her. "Come over quickly."
He turned his head and said to Yu Xinlan seriously, "Don't tell anyone about what you just told me. I'll think about it later."
"I know. I won't tell anyone," Yu Xinlan said embarra.s.singly when she saw Ji Ziyin walking over.
Of course, she knew that a 'guest' had come to her house.
However, she had also heard about Ji Ziyin's ident.i.ty from the servants. She was just a member of the side branch of the Ji family in the independent continent.
As the most outstanding successor of the Yu family, Yu Xinlan naturally looked down on Ji Ziyin.
She could not be bothered to talk to Ji Ziyin but did not dare to disrespect Yu Qingliu. Hence, she chose a lukewarm method and pretended not to see her.
She did not take the initiative to greet Ji Ziyin, nor did she deliberately ignore her.
Yu Qingliu did not place Ji Ziyin on the same level as his family, so upon seeing Yu Xinlan's actions, he pretended not to see them. He raised his hand and said, "You can go back."
Yu Xinlan brushed past Ji Ziyin.
Yu Qingliu did not look at Ji Ziyin's expression as he lowered his eyes and waved at her. "Come here."
This greeting was as if he was calling his pet. There was no respect.
However, Ji Ziyin's expression did not change. She forced herself to walk over and called out with a smile, "Elder Yu, why did you call me?"
Yu Qingliu looked up and asked the servant to pour her a cup of coffee. Then, he asked Ji Ziyin to sit down.
Ji Ziyin sensibly sat opposite him with her legs together and looked at him with bright eyes. "Do you have something to tell me?"
"There's an auction at Beichen Club tonight. I want to bring you to show your face." Yu Qingliu brewed another tea with a tea set in front of him. His movements were smooth, making it obvious that he was a tea connoisseur. "This auction is not a place anyone can go to just because they want to. Those qualified are all from the top circles in Country M. Many people from the reclusive families will also be there."
Ji Ziyin immediately looked up and listened attentively at the mention of the reclusive families.
Yu Qingliu poured himself a cup of tea and slowly picked it up. His expression gradually became gloomy and indignant. He took a deep breath and unwillingly said, "You might not know the internal situation of the reclusive families since you just arrived. The Yu family is not particularly outstanding among the reclusive families… The reclusive families also have their own separate circles. Tonight's auction is a very good opportunity. If you can stand up and bid for an exhibit, it will be convenient for me to introduce you to them."
Ji Ziyin indeed did not know much about the internal situation of the reclusive families, but she was not stupid. She immediately thought of what the weapons dealer, David, had said—the Yu family was just bottom-tier among the reclusive families!
Her eyes flickered with ambition, but she acted as if she did not understand Yu Qingliu's anger and dissatisfaction. She said softly, "Then, Elder Yu, which exhibit should I bid for?"
