Chapter 3418: You Plan to Hand the Ji Family Over to Nian Nian Today
He Lin followed Xie Yun all the way to Ji Lingfeng's residence. At one point, he couldn't keep up with Xie Yun and had no choice but to speed up.
"Madam."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Silence.
Xie Yun had no intention of speaking to him. She walked without looking back.
He Lin grew anxious upon seeing she was about to barge into Ji Lingfeng's office. Not caring about seniority, he quickly reached out to stop her from rushing in.
"Madam, why don't you wait outside while I go in and tell the Patriarch you're here?"
Xie Yun narrowed her eyes and scanned at him from head to toe. "You dare to stop me?"
"How would I dare..." He Lin smiled bitterly and tried to calm her. "But Madam, you should know the Patriarch's current condition. I'm worried..."
He should have ended up mediocre in this life but had managed to be promoted to his current position all because of the Patriarch.
He Lin naturally did not dare to offend his superiors.
However, the Patriarch really couldn't waste the strength quarreling with Madam anymore. If they quarreled again, he suspected the Patriarch wouldn't be able to force himself to attend today's meeting.
Seeing that her expression had softened, He Lin dared to say in a low voice, "Madam, you know the Patriarch's health. He..."
The harshness in Xie Yun's eyes faded, but she had no intention of backing down. "I'm just going in to talk to him."
Seeing her attitude, He Lin knew he couldn't stop her. If he forcefully stopped Xie Yun from entering, it might alarm the people in the Righteousness Hall.
He could only make way with pursed lips. "The Patriarch is inside."
Xie Yun glanced at him but did not say anything. She walked past him and went straight through the corridor, pushing open the door of Ji Lingfeng's study.
Click.
The door closed.
Although He Lin was anxious and worried that Xie Yun would argue with Ji Lingfeng, he still had an even more important mission at this critical moment and could not stay outside the room all the time.
He stood outside for a few minutes and, not hearing anything from inside, gritted his teeth and went to do what Ji Lingfeng had instructed him to do.
In the room.
Xie Yun wasn't as aggressive as He Lin had imagined she would be.
Instead, when she saw the man in a suit sitting behind the desk, she stopped a few steps away from him and watched as he opened the drawer and silently placed an old photo back inside.
When he looked up at her, his deep eyes were calm as if he was looking at an old friend. "You're here. Sit."
Ji Lingfeng pointed to the sofa, indicating for her to sit down.
Xie Yun took a deep breath but did not move. She stood still, facing him. Her gaze slid over his thin face as she bluntly asked, "Are you planning to hand the Ji family to Nian Nian today?"
Ji Lingfeng told her this a few days ago.
At that time, she did not agree.
The reason was simple.
She didn't care how chaotic the previous generation of the Ji family was. As a mother, she only wanted to protect her child's interests.
That was why her reaction was so intense. She had no intention of talking to him and clearly rejected Ji Lingfeng's suggestion.
However, since she received the news yesterday, she knew this man did not take it to heart at all. He still insisted on doing what he had decided.
Xie Yun was angry before entering this room. However, her anger dissipated the moment she saw him.
