“I was going to come back immediately, but something happened to my body. The doctor told me to rest for two days, so I waited for two days before coming back.
“I tried to contact him, but Assistant He didn’t answer my call, so I just sent him a message.”
What she meant was that she had explained it to He Lin.
Ji Ziyin’s explanation was watertight, but she was very uncertain inside. She was so guilty that she did not dare to look up to check Ji Lingfeng’s expression.
Ji Lingfeng’s expression remained indifferent. It did not change no matter what she said. He nodded and said, “You couldn’t take the plane because of your health, but it didn’t prevent you from attending the reclusive family’s private banquet.”
He knew everything?!
Cold sweat broke out on Ji Ziyin’s back.
Ji Lingfeng did not want to waste his breath on her and simply said, “Since you have ambitions outside, the Ji family can’t keep you. You don’t have to come back in the future.’
“Patriarch?!” Ji Ziyin shouted.
She was completely flustered now.
Previously, Ji Lingfeng had only excluded her from the list of the new generation.
But now he wanted to chase her out of the family!
Ji Ziyin’s heart pounded. Not caring about her dignity, still kneeling, she begged for mercy in a panic. “Patriarch, I know my mistake.
“I want to build a good relationship with the reclusive family not only for my own selfish reasons but also to find more friends for the family.
“Patriarch, I’m about to enter the Privy Council.
“As long as I’m successful, I will definitely think of a way to help the talents of the younger generation of the family. Believe me!”
Ji Hongyuan was dumbfounded. He did not expect Ji Ziyin to do so many things behind his back and even go to Country M to curry favor with the reclusive family…
He subconsciously looked at Ji Lingfeng’s expression.
Sure enough.
The middle-aged man looked refined and seemed to be a good-tempered person. However, his deep eyes were covered with a layer of ice that could not be melted, and his hostility was very strong.
He knew very well what Ji Lingfeng’s reverse scale was.
Therefore, Ji Hongyuan clearly understood that Ji Ziyin had crossed the red line.
Ji Hongyuan thought about how Ji Ziyin was considered a good seedling among the younger generation. If she was chased out of the family, wouldn’t the younger generation only be able to turn to Qiao Nian?
He braced himself and stepped forward, trying to speak up for Ji Ziyin. “Patriarch, she’s still young and doesn’t know what happened in the past. Look, the young are ignorant, so this matter…”
“Sixth Uncle,” Ji Lingfeng said indifferently.
Ji Hongyuan understood that he was not important enough. He pursed his lips in embarrassment and did not respond.
Ji Xiao and Ji Ziyin had yet to realize the seriousness of the matter.
Ji Xiao was already in a precarious position himself, but he still tried to put in a good word for Ji Ziyin. “That’s right, Patriarch. Ziyin is doing this for the good of the family.
“The reclusive family is a way out, after all.
“Our Ji family can’t keep hiding in a place as big as the independent continent. If we want to advance further, we must definitely join forces with the powerful forces outside.
“Ziyin can also help the younger generation if she enters the Privy Council…
Ji Lingfeng sneered and covered his eyes. His expression was similar to Qiao Nian’s when she was angered. His eyes were fierce and cold. “When did the Ji family need to rely on others to support us?”
Ji Xiao’s lips twitched. He realized he had said something wrong.
However, deep in his heart, he still believed that the Ji family had been going downhill all these years. No one in the younger generation was truly outstanding. The Ji family would eventually decline if this trend continued..
