2568 Yu Qingliu Is Determined to Kill Sister Nian
“The Ji family has always had such dirty and chaotic blood, but all of them still want to protect each other. Now, he still wants to protect the daughter conceived by his sister and another man. How ridiculous.”
Shadow listened without raising his head, as if he had long known this secret.
The Empress gradually calmed down from her madness. Smiling again, she used the scissors to cut the flower branch in front of her.
Looking at the flowers on the ground, she threw down the scissors, picked up a petal, and crushed it. “I promised him that if Yu Qingliu can’t complete the mission before dawn, I’ll let them leave Country M.”
The power of the reclusive families was definitely not as simple as it seemed. If she did not want Qiao Nian and the others to leave Country M alive…
There was no way Qiao Nian would leave.
But the Ji family…
A trace of fear flashed across the Empress’s eyes. In the end, she did not dare to fight Ji Lingfeng head-on. “When the time is ripe. I have to continue lying low.”
She did not know that Ji Qing had descendants, nor did she know of Qiao Nian’s existence.
What she could not tolerate the most in her life was the passing down of this bloodline. She could tolerate anything else!
“I have to wait for the right time…” the Empress murmured softly, her tone slow and gloomy. “Ji Lingfeng can’t blame me if she dies at the Yu Family’s hands.”

Night fell.
A bright moon rose into the sky, filling the air with a sultry humidity.
Even the sound of insects had disappeared outside the Pharmacy Association. It was exceptionally quiet.
Qiao Nian leaned against the wall and looked at the dim lights and the empty road outside. She pulled down her baseball cap and walked in…
Ye Wangchuan was talking to Ji Lin and Qin Si in the corridor.
Qiao Nian walked over and asked, “How’s Lu Zhi?”
Qin Si was caught between laughter and tears. “Jian Jin and Tian Chen’s men are guarding outside his room. They’re guarding the place tightly. His place is the safest in the Pharmacy Association.”
Afraid Qiao Nian would think he was implying something about Lu Zhi, he quickly added, “But he’s not awake yet.”
Zhong Yiliu’s medicine was too strong.
Lu Zhi was still unconscious.
Tian Chen was leaderless, so those people were useless.
Qin Si was discussing with them how to survive tonight’s danger.
He saw the bags under the girl’s eyes and handed her a glass of water. “Sister Qiao, Master Wang and I are here. Why don’t you rest? Anyway, I don’t think the reclusive families will make a move so soon.”
“Thank you.” Qiao Nian took the glass from him and took a sip. Then, she took out her laptop from her bag. “They’re already here.”
The screen lit up, and seven surveillance images immediately popped up.
Qin Si and Ji Lin leaned over to take a look.
Qin Si immediately pointed at the screen in shock. “(⊙o⊙)… When did you install the surveillance cameras? Damn, they’re all here? What kind of equipment is this? They have snipers?”
A total of seven frequency subdivisions appeared on the screen. A member of the Yu family was captured in each frequency.
Clearly, the Yu family was immediately discovered as soon as they arrived at the Pharmacy Association!
“Awesome.” Qin Si did not know what to say after that. He turned to look at the girl and looked hesitant. “It looks like they want you to die.”
From the surveillance footage, all the Yu family people were armed. They even brought four snipers. Wasn’t this enough to show their determination to kill Qiao Nian?!
