Chapter 3407: The Ji Family Comes to Beijing

Qin Si saw this scene and secretly cursed. He immediately understood why Master Wang deliberately did not wear a turtleneck sweater today.
It was for a one-hit kill!
After the light in Wen Ziyu’s eyes suddenly dimmed, he did not speak much the entire time. It was obvious he had been dealt a huge blow and could not recover for a while.
It was mainly because Wen Ruxia and Nie Mi were talking about the new arrangement with Qiao Nian. Zhang Yang occasionally interrupted to liven up the atmosphere, making the scene harmonious.
However, Wen Ruxia was responsible for receiving the guests. She couldn’t be with them all night.
After her assistant came over two or three times, Wen Ruxia could only reveal an apologetic expression and say to them, “Master Nie, Nian Nian. You guys chat. I have to greet the other guests, I won’t be able to accompany you anymore.”
“Alright.” Qiao Nian wasn’t a talkative person and did not like such occasions. She didn’t feel neglected. She nodded straightforwardly and let her go.
Wen Ruxia said something to Liang Conglin and the others before hurriedly following her assistant.
On the other hand, when Wen Ziyu’s friend saw Wen Ruxia leave in a hurry, he asked curiously, “Where did your aunt go?”
“Probably to greet a guest.” Wen Ziyu had long known that it was impossible with Qiao Nian, but it was another matter to see it with his own eyes. He said weakly, “A friend from out of town is coming. He seems quite important. He should have arrived.”
Qiao Nian was replying to a message with her head lowered and accidentally heard what he said. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
From out of town? Someone important?
She looked at the message Slim Waist Control sent her half an hour ago.
[Big boss, the Ji family has come to Beijing.]
Attached to the message were two photos of entry passes.
Before clicking on them, Qiao Nian replied, [I’m outside. Busy now.]
She suddenly wanted to see the photos.
Hence, Qiao Nian handed Ye Qichen to someone before saying to Nie Mi and the rest, “I’m sorry, I’ve to go to the washroom.”

The banquet hall was huge and magnificent.
Qiao Nian walked through the crowd and finally walked out. At a corner outside the hall, she took out her cell phone, lowered her head, and looked for the photos Slim Waist Control had sent her.
As expected, they were acquaintances.
One was Ji Xiao and the other was an older man.
With triangular eyes and thin lips, who else could it be but Ji Hongyuan?
Ji Xiao and Ji Hongyuan?
What were they doing in Beijing?
Leaning against the wall, Qiao Nian looked at the photo and stretched her legs, wanting to take out the lighter to play with.
Right at this moment, she looked up and saw Wen Ruxia and her assistant leading two people in from the side door.
One was Ji Xiao, dressed in a suit and leather shoes. His steps were steady and imposing, and he looked very eye-catching.
The other was Ji Hongyuan, being ushered in by the Ji family’s bodyguards.
Ji Hongyuan was still mostly the same. He just had aged a lot. His originally gray hair was almost completely white, and his sideburns were gray. However, he did not look as peaceful as he should be at this age. Instead, he looked gloomy and cold.
Wen Ruxia was talking to them. They seemed to know each other.
A little frustrated and feeling a headache, Qiao Nian massaged her temples as she walked to the side to call Ji Nan.
