1924 Get Wei Lou to Help Take Care of the Jiang Family
“Also.” Ji Hongyuan had lived for a long time, but this was the first time he had suffered such a loss. His eyelids twitched. If Qiao Nian wasn’t a direct descendant of the Ji family, he would have flown into a rage today. Even so, he couldn’t suppress the anger breathing in his chest. “Ji Xiao and Ji Ziyin shouldn’t know that we’ve found a direct descendant of the Ji family, right?”
He Lin looked confused. “Miss Ji probably doesn’t know.”
Ji Hongyuan picked up the teacup. Instead of drinking it, he instructed him coldly, “Go and release this news, but don’t let them know who it is.”
Ji Ziyin was a smart person.
As long as she got this news, even if she wasn’t sure that Qiao Nian was that person, she would still work tirelessly to suppress her in the research institute.
This was what Ji Hongyuan was thinking.
He wanted to see the girl suffer and dampen her spirit. Only then could he make her return to the family obediently and work for them!
“… Also, find two people to follow her. Half protect and half monitor her whereabouts to see what the Nan family wants to use her for.”
He Lin looked in the direction the girl had left. His expression was complicated as he nodded, indicating that he understood. He quickly went to get it done.
…
Outside the Intercontinental Hotel.
Qiao Nian left the hotel and took out her phone to call Wei Lou. “Help me take care of the Jiang Family. Call me if anything happens.”
“Okay.” Wei Lou was far away in Beijing.
There was a time difference of more than ten hours between Beijing and the Independent Continent. He was woken up by Qiao Nian’s call. He pulled open the curtains and let the morning light shine into the house.
As he walked towards the circular sofa, he turned on the coffee machine on the coffee table and poured himself a cup of black coffee.
After taking a sip of hot coffee, he asked the girl, “Who have you provoked now? Why are you suddenly worried about the Jiang family?”
“Just… a self-righteous person.” Qiao Nian lowered her gaze, suppressing the surliness in her eyes. She took a deep breath. “When I’m not around, help me keep an eye on my grandfather and the others. Remember to let me know if any strangers approach them.”
“Alright, I know. You’ve already instructed me twice!”
Wei Lou smiled and said with a serious expression, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Uncle and the others for you.
“By the way, when are you coming back? And where are you?”
Qiao Nian had left in a hurry this time and didn’t tell him and Yuan Yongqin. So far, neither of them knew where Qiao Nian had gone.
“The Independent Continent.”
“I have something to do in the Independent Continent and won’t be back for some time. I’ll tell you when I’m back. Just take care of my family for me.” Qiao Nian’s words were concise. She didn’t go too deep into it. She only said simply, “I’ll leave this matter to you. I’ll treat you to a meal when I get back.”
“Alright.” Wei Lou didn’t ask further. He told her a few places to eat before hanging up.
After hanging up, he went downstairs to the living room. Along the way, he scrolled through his cell phone and found some of the Wei Family’s connections he knew. Now, as he made a call, his sloppy and unreliable image from when he was on the phone with Qiao Nian changed. His voice now was capable and calm. “Help me keep an eye on the Jiang Family. Protect them well during this period of time!”
After arranging everything, he sat on the sofa again and scrolled through the girl’s WeChat profile pictures. He didn’t come back to his senses for a long time…
