“I heard that you’re going back to Beijing soon?” Elder Xue did not notice the passerby he had casually stopped just now as he spoke to Qiao Nian.

The girl was playing with something in her hand. Looking up and seeing his anxious expression, she stopped and smiled. Then, she casually said, “You didn’t come to ask me this, right?”

Elder Xue was stunned.

The last time he saw Qiao Nian was when she left the Privy Council. Although Qiao Nian did not speak much, her attitude towards him was still good.

At the very least, she was polite.

Today, he felt the girl’s alienation, as if she was not familiar with him and he was just an ordinary stranger.

Elder Xue was momentarily unused to the disparity. He looked at her with a complicated expression. “Are you still angry about my phone calls and text messages?”

His eyes were dark and unreadable for a moment. Then, he said reluctantly, “I have my stand, but I hope you won’t take the wrong path.”

Qiao Nian looked at his expression. It seemed she wanted him to continue.

Elder Xue took a deep breath and sighed. “You’re still young. There will be endless possibilities in the future. You shouldn’t be so radical, let alone go against the reclusive families.”

Qiao Nian could investigate the cause of Ji Qing’s death, but her stance now actually disregarded the reclusive families’ interests.

He couldn’t accept this no matter what.

In his eyes, the reclusive families’ interests were above everything else. Qiao Nian should share his sentiments.

After all, she was a direct descendant of the Ji family and was inextricably linked to the reclusive families. The independent continent’s Ji family and the reclusive families belonged to the same power. It was fine for everyone to have small fights, but they should advance and retreat together when facing common interests.

Qiao Nian’s actions… had crossed the red line!

Elder Xue looked at her again. Taking her silence for agreement, his gaze softened a little as he softly persuaded her, “Is Zhou Zheng with you? Hand Zhou Zheng to me, and I’ll help you communicate with the Empress.

“Nie Qixing is already dead. You can be considered to have avenged Master Cheng. You’re still young. You might not understand the importance of leaving a way out for everything.”

He meant that Master Cheng had already been sent back to Beijing.

Nie Qixing was gone too.

In that case, she could let Zhou Zheng go. At the very least, everyone would look good and this would not become a big deal.

Qiao Nian came back to her senses and finally looked at him. Her arrogant gaze landed on his face and she sneered. “Are you here to ask for Zhou Zheng?”

Elder Xue paused.

Then, he heard the girl’s casual and cold tone. “Are you looking for me, or is Nie Qingru looking for me?”

Elder Xue frowned. He did not expect her to be so direct. She did not give him any face at all. “Qiao Nian, I’m here for you.”

He very much admired this direct descendant of the Ji family. She was talented, capable, and had a temper.

Just as he had said, he did not want Qiao Nian to go down the wrong path.

At the very least, he felt that he was here to save a genius who was about to reach a fork in the road. He was not doing this for anyone in particular.

Qiao Nian looked at him and said directly, “Is she worried that if Zhou Zheng returns to Beijing with me, she won’t be able to hide what Nie Qixing did?”

Nie Qingru sacrificed Nie Qixing for power. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Now the dust had settled.

She was trying to take care of Zhou Zheng to protect Nie Qixing’s reputation.

They made the choice themselves, and yet they wanted to be good people after the fact.

This… was the style of the reclusive families.

How hypocritical!

“I won’t give you Zhou Zheng. If you want him, you can try to take him from me.”
