Chapter 3739: Sister Nian Sends Zhong Yiliu Off
She wanted to see what made Ji Qing not regret death. She would rather die in the sea than hide something.
—Where values lie…
—Even with tens of millions in my way, I will not regret the pursuit even if I die.
Qiao Nian left silently, leaving Ji Lingfeng reaching out to grab onto nothing but the ray of sunlight.
The air smelled of disinfectant.
It was as if he had returned to 20 years ago…

Outside.
Ji Nan and Xie Yun waited for her to e out before approaching. Ji Nan touched her shoulder and asked in concern, “What did my father say to you?”
Qiao Nian was in low spirits. She couldn’t even be bothered to look at him. “Nothing.”
They had been inside for so long, Ji Nan knew his father would say something to her. He was about to ask again when Xie Yun tugged at his sleeve, indicating for him to stop asking.
Ji Nan suppressed his curiosity and grabbed his car keys. “Let’s go. I’ll send you back.”
Qiao Nian refused. She asked him to acpany Ji Lingfeng back to the old residence. She then went to look for Zhong Yiliu and arranged a plane.
She called Guan Yan, who arranged the itinerary in just a few minutes and sent a car to pick them up.
Qiao Nian called Zhong Yiliu to the independent continent. Upon leaving, she was the one sending him off. She watched as Zhong Yiliu boarded the plane and it taxied away, disappearing into the blue sky.
Only then did she turn around.
…
After Ji Lingfeng recovered and was discharged from the hospital, the Ji family, which had been in turmoil for more than half a year, finally calmed down.
Ji Lingfeng was a decisive person.
On the third day after returning, he started to deal with the people who had been restless during his absence.
He then called the few elders to the Righteousness Hall.
He had always been valiant. After everyone arrived, Xie Yun pushed the wheelchair to the conference table and he threw a thick stack of investigation documents before the elders.
“See for yourselves.”
The elders silently picked up the documents amid the solemn atmosphere. They looked at the documents one by one, and the more they looked at them, the worse their expressions became.
These documents carefully listed their private dealings during this period, including forming cliques and colluding with external forces.
The few elders who were called out sneered and dropped the documents, not daring to continue reading.
“Are you done?” Ji Lingfeng asked indifferently when he saw they stopped reading.
The Second Elder and the rest were embarrassed. Covering their mouths, they coughed awkwardly and their eyes darted around. “Patriarch, why did you show us this? This is all a misunderstanding. The situation at that time was too plicated. We…”
“All of you are my elders. Granduncle, Uncle, and the rest,” Ji Lingfeng interrupted.
The Second Elder’s anxiety eased slightly. It seemed the Patriarch was not as serious as he thought.
Unexpectedly, Ji Lingfeng changed the topic. “Logically speaking, I shouldn’t argue with you guys. However, I’ve been through the gates of hell once and have gotten over many things. Second Uncle is old and should rest now. Don’t you think so?”
He called out a few names in succession.
They were all the powerful elders who were the most active during this time.
These people were able to do so much during this period not only because they were senior in the Ji family, but also because of their high status. They controlled many of the Ji family’s businesses.
Ji Lingfeng’s sudden attack was undoubtedly a slap to everyone’s face.
