“What?!” Feng Yu was shocked.
He got up and paced in the office. After two rounds, he stopped in front of the girl and looked at her with a serious expression. “Then, are you sure you want to go?”
Qiao Nian herself was still deciding whether to go.
If she was not going, she would ask Feng Yu to bring the gift.
However, seeing Feng Yu’s expectant gaze, she thought for a moment and said, “Probably.”
Feng Yu heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Then come with me when the time comes. I want to go too. We can accompany each other.”
“Alright.” Qiao Nian had no objections.
Feng Yu had asked her to come to ask about this. Now that he had asked, he could not continue to keep Qiao Nian in the office.
However, he suddenly thought of something else. “By the way, did you know Ji Ziyin is coming back?”
“Huh?” Qiao Nian was about to leave. She raised her eyebrows, not that interested.
Feng Yu knew that she might not have paid attention to this news. “Ji Ziyin is coming back. She went to Country M just like you. She was brought there by Yu Qingliu. It seemed like he wanted to introduce her to the reclusive families.”
However, the Yu family had fallen like a meteor in just half a month. It was quite a pity.
Feng Yu looked at the girl and did not mention the Yu family’s matter. He only said, “I heard from Martin that Ji Ziyin has been doing well in Country M for the past week and is even treated as a distinguished guest by the royal family.
Looks like she’s been officially accepted by the reclusive families’ circle.” He observed the girl.
Unexpectedly, the corners of the girl’s mouth curled up casually, forming an unruly arc. She put one hand in her pocket and prepared to leave. “Prejudice is like a mountain. It’s not so easy to change!
“They look down on outsiders from the bottom of their hearts. How can they accept an outsider so easily?”
Accepting it was just for the outsiders to see, only a fool would believe it.
Qiao Nian lowered her eyes and thought about Ji Ziyin. She smiled again. “She… might believe it.’
After all, Ji Ziyin had tried her best to squeeze into a circle that did not belong to her.
She had always been trying to fight for something that did not belong to her.
For example, the Ji family’s status.
For example, the results of the research inst.i.tute.
For example, relying on the stolen notebook.
Qiao Nian was not interested in her matters. “It won’t end well if she continues like this.”
“I think so too.” Feng Yu nodded in agreement. He had the same opinion as Qiao Nian.
If a person did not rely on themselves to climb up, no matter how high they climbed, they would fall sooner or later.
The higher one had climbed, the harder they would fall.
“However, the news has already spread. Many factions in the independent continent want to curry favor with her again.
“She can finally hold her head high this time.
“I heard that… the Chamber of Commerce Alliance and the Lu family have built a good relations.h.i.+p with her again. They’ll hold a welcome banquet for her tomorrow.”
Previously, Ji Ziyin had made a fool of herself because of the arms dealer David.
The Chamber of Commerce Alliance immediately drew a line with her.
Old Madam Lu was also furious when she received the news. At one point, she spread the word that she would teach Ji Ziyin a lesson.
In the blink of an eye, the att.i.tudes of the two factions changed again.
The Lu family’s situation was quite ugly this time.
Old Madam Lu wanted to curry favor with Ji Ziyin, and many forces in the independent continent were watching them make a fool of themselves.
“She even sent me a message mentioning Gu Hengbo. She said Gu Hengbo was too hastily expelled from the First Research Inst.i.tute last time and asked me to reconsider it..”
