Capítulo 1276: Chapter 1276: Nowhere to Be Found
“My lord, what’s wrong?” Selena was caught off guard. Ji Qian was always steady, so why was she acting so startled now? But it was clear it had to be sothing urgent.
“Alright, my lord, I’ll take you there.” Soul Destroyer had just gotten out of the car and imdiately got back in. It was a small truck, perfect not only for carrying cargo but also a few guards. Selena had to protect Ji Qian closely, and Chen Ligong was here to ensure Ji Qian’s safety, so both of them had to go. Additionally, they brought a few Moon Guards.
“What’s really going on?” According to the coordinates Ji Qian gave, it was a high-end café located in the city, but Ji Qian wouldn’t go so far just to have a cup of coffee. She must be eting soone.
“All of you wait outside, don’t co in.” Ji Qian ordered coldly, her gaze fixed on her phone, not even raising her head, as if looking at sothing important.
“But… Miss, let accompany you inside.” Chen Ligong was not at ease about Ji Qian’s safety. This was North Arica, not Yanjing. The White Mist Army was left at the camp and wasn’t brought over, and Ji Qian had fought a battle last night, seriously depleting her energy. If there were any danger…
“Don’t worry, I won’t get into trouble. This ti I’m here to negotiate, not fight.” Ji Qian explained.
“In that case, please be careful, Miss.” Chen Ligong reminded her. The small truck slowly stopped across the café. Being just an ordinary small truck and not a luxury car, it didn’t attract the attention of passersby. However, Ji Qian, an Eastern beauty, did draw the gaze of quite a few n.
Ji Qian pushed open the door to the café. Everyone stayed in the car, not daring to act without orders. Soul Destroyer instinctively observed the surroundings. This café had no back door, only a single entrance at the front. Who was Ji Qian eting, anyway? And had they arrived yet? If not, sooner or later they’d co through this door, and then Soul Destroyer would know who they were.
“If only Worm was here. Once he hacked into the surveillance system, we could find out what’s happening inside.” Soul Destroyer murmured.
“That may not be the case. So cafés here, respecting privacy rights, might have private rooms without surveillance. We’ll probably need to go inside to find out.” Selena explained. After all, cafés were privacy-conscious places, and Westerners were quite particular about it. So, unless soone went in or brought a recording device, there was no way of knowing what was happening inside.
“The lord must have it under control.” Selena continued, even if facing danger, Ji Qian still had life-saving treasures she could use.
For example, the water elent.
anwhile, inside the café, even though it was afternoon tea ti, there wasn’t a single custor. Ji Qian wasn’t surprised; if she ca, the place would surely be reserved.
“Miss Ji, the Family Head is waiting for you inside, please enter.” A woman in black ca out from inside, none other than Chen Ruoya, the Chen family’s chief steward. So, naturally, the person Ji Qian was eting was Chen Yuxin.
“Take in.” Ji Qian wore a cold expression. Honestly, she really wanted to “fight” with Chen Yuxin. Two peerless beauties fighting was quite “uncommon.” Ye Shikai turned out this way because of Chen Yuxin. As a wife, she not only failed to take care of Ye Shikai but also hurt him, and under the na of “love” at that. Ji Qian couldn’t understand; Chen Yuxin already had a child. Even though Ye Shikai had many ambiguous “female friends,” she was his legal wife, indisputably. Once she had a child, Ye Shikai couldn’t possibly leave her, yet she still did such excessive things.
“Chen Yuxin, what do you want to say?” Ji Qian walked into the room. Aside from Chen Yuxin, no one else was there. Ji Qian held no courtesy; she and Chen Yuxin were love rivals.
“I should be asking you that.” Chen Yuxin wasn’t polite either, and as soon as they t, the tension filled the air.
“Miss Ji, you’re quite the noble lady. Knowing Kai is a married man, why do you continue to pester him?” Chen Yuxin retorted. Ji Qian gritted her teeth. Indeed, being involved in Ye Shikai and Chen Yuxin’s affairs without status certainly invited gossip. If she were just the Moon God, that would be one thing, but now, all of Yanjing knew her as the Ji family’s eldest daughter.
“If I didn’t care for him, he’d have been hurt all over by you long ago.” Ji Qian retorted, unwilling to back down. “He went so far as to divorce Qingyu just to give you a status, yet you didn’t cherish it at all and kept hurting him. What are your true intentions?”
“That’s between him and . What does it have to do with you? He’s my husband, the father of my child. Why would I harm him? It’s you, you who kept intervening, putting him in danger.”
With these words, Ji Qian couldn’t help but fu. How shaless for a family leader, a well-known figure in Yanjing, to speak like this.
“So, destroying his Dantian and severing his connection with the outside world, was that you helping him?” Ji Qian retorted. At this, Chen Yuxin’s face turned icy. She couldn’t stand Ji Qian’s judgnt; frankly, doing such things had been tornting her inside too.
“And you actually sent him to Zeus.” Ji Qian continued berating. “Do you realize Zeus once offered a 2 billion reward for his head? No matter the reason, you shouldn’t have handed him to Zeus.”
“Do you think I wanted to? If it weren’t for you won, why would I have done that?” Both won stood up, emotions running high.
“Last night, your ‘Shadow’ organization took him. I don’t want to say more. Where is he?” Ji Qian demanded. Arguing with Chen Yuxin had no aning. The two had different thods, views, and stances, naturally finding each other repulsive.
“Hmph, isn’t he with you now? How dare you co to asking for him?” Chen Yuxin countered.
“What? Are you stupid? Isn’t the Shadow Organization under your command?”
“He ran away from the hotel he was staying at last night. In North Arica, he could only have co to find you.” Chen Yuxin countered. After hearing Feng Ling’s report, she deduced that Ye Shikai must have sought out Ji Qian. After all, North Arica wasn’t his territory; only by finding Ji Qian would he be able to leave here.
“He hasn’t co to at all.”
