Qiao Nian grabbed a bottle of Coke from the fridge and took a casual sip. Then, she unhurriedly explained, “I didn’t suspect anything at first. You mentioned her name that day. After thinking about it, I found it was not impossible.”
The Coke emitted cold air, but Qiao Nian’s temperature was like a prairie fire.
She sneered. “A dog will jump over the wall when it’s desperate. I didn’t expect her to be so bold.”
Leonard was one of the three heads of the Privy Council. His family was also one of the top families among the reclusive families.
Ji Ziyin actually dared to have such thoughts. Did she really think that she had nine lives?
Could she withstand the Leonard family’s revenge?
“Perhaps she thinks she’s special in Nie Qingru’s eyes. Nie Qingru will spare her life no matter what…” No matter how she thought about it, this was the only reason she could think of.
Qiao Nian’s eyes darkened and the corners of her lips curled up, but the smile did not reach her eyes. “Nie Qingru doesn’t doesn’t care about her. She didn’t even spare her only daughter, and Ji Ziyin actually thinks she’s a special case? Pfft!”
No one knew who she was laughing at.
However, a burned fire in her heart, and her temples throbbed. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
She said, “I have limited manpower in the independent continent. Help me check this serial number. I’ll make her die in peace!”
“Sure.”
Ye Wangchuan held the sheet of paper between his fingers and went to the study to make a call without another word.
…
No one expected Qiao Nian to start investigating the bullet’s trajectory.
Ye Wangchuan called Ji Lin. In less than half an hour, Ji Lin used his connections to get the purchase list of the manufacturer.
This list was much more complete than the simple registration information on the black market.
After all, most of the people who dealt with firearms kept a secret.
Ye Wangchuan received the list from Ji Lin and handed Qiao Nian the cell phone. “It’s what you want.”
Qiao Nian silently took the cell phone and zoomed in on the photo. Indeed, Ji Ziyin’s name was in front of the serial number.
This time, the dust settled.
She basically confirmed that the person behind this was Ji Ziyin.
Qiao Nian was already mentally prepared the moment she received the name list, so she was not too surprised now.
Seeing that she had only sent the photo to his cell phone, Ye Wangchuan lowered his eyes and asked her, “What do you plan to do next?”
“Didn’t she want to be the Matriarch of the Ji family?” A trace of coldness flashed across Qiao Nian’s eyes as she returned the cell phone to him. “I’ll wait for the dog to jump over the wall again.”
There was no response from Nie Qingru after such a long time. Ji Ziyin must be suffering from the wait.
Qiao Nian was in no hurry.
Ji Ziyin might try to quibble if she took this list to her.
She had to catch her red-handed. Otherwise, how could she live up to the other party’s meticulous trap?
“Leonard’s men are still guarding the hospital?” She suddenly thought of something and tilted her head to ask.
Ye Wangchuan understood what she was thinking. He put away his cell phone and went to get his car keys. “Let’s go. I’ll accompany you.”
**
Four days.
Ji Ziyin waited for four days, but there was still no news from the reclusive families.
Even Leonard’s family at the hospital did not move. It was as if his death did not cause any waves.
Ji Ziyin gradually became frustrated. After asking Ji Xiao to find out about the outside world, she hesitated whether to call Nie Qingru.
