Ji Qian learned from Ji Yu’s mouth that at the wedding scene, in the restroom, Wang Qian had reported Wang Kai’s whereabouts to the National Security Bureau, possibly as a delay tactic.
"Could it be that the Wang Family is really in cahoots with Boss Xing," Ji Qian said lightly. This operation was carried out by Boss Xing and Mothman, with the Wang Family providing support. If Wang Qian was unaware of Boss Xing’s move, then even reporting to the National Security Bureau would be aningless. Moreover, the Hidden Guard led by Wild Wolf and Short-nosed Crocodile was stopped and checked only after Wang Qian had given a heads-up. This way, it seems the Wang Family really is collaborating with Boss Xing.
"You actually had Elder Chen attack the National Security Bureau this ti; that was really reckless," Ji Qian couldn’t help but reprimand. The Ji Family’s White Mist Army has always been a secret, and it was because the National Security Bureau was unprepared this ti that they were repelled. Later on, the National Security Bureau will definitely target them to investigate their true identities.
"Hehe, wasn’t it all to save you guys?" Ji Yu said with a chuckle, then changed the subject, "By the way, sis, what’s exactly your relationship with that stinky man?"
"Stinky man? Who are you talking about?" Ji Qian didn’t catch on imdiately and asked with curiosity.
"Of course, it’s... him," Ji Yu took for granted that she wanted to say Ye Shikai’s na, but in the end, she didn’t.
"You’re talking about him," Ji Qian finally understood the implication in Ji Yu’s words. Obviously, her younger sister had a huge prejudice against Ye Shikai.
"Why would you say that?" Ji Qian frowned and flicked Ji Yu’s forehead with displeasure, "Why do you call him a stinky man?"
"He abandons after seducing, his affections shift at the sight of soone new; isn’t he just a stinky man?" Ji Yu didn’t directly say Ye Shikai dumped Ji Qian, but instead used a string of "adjectives" to tag Ye Shikai as a Chen Shii.
"That’s my business with him. Don’t talk nonsense; I don’t want you getting involved," stated Ji Qian coldly, causing Ji Yu’s face to fall instantly.
"Sis, you still speak up for him. I think you just can’t forget..."
"Enough, don’t say any more." Before Ji Yu could finish, Ji Qian suddenly snapped, scaring Ji Yu stiff. Ji Qian walked over, gently stroked her head, and sighed, "You don’t understand him; naturally, you don’t know what he’s carrying. I don’t want to ntion this matter anymore, and I want you to stop as well."
"All right then, sis," Ji Yu hung her head low but then abruptly looked up, "Right, sis, Wang Qian asked to give you a ssage; she wants to see you."
"Wang Qian wants to see ?" Ji Qian seed surprised. She indeed knew Wang Qian; in fact, they had known each other since they were very young. At that ti, Ji Qian was the young lady of the Ji Family, and Wang Qian was the young lady of the Wang Family, both the precious daughters of the four major families. It could be said that the two knew each other very well. In Ji Qian’s mory, Wang Qian was an extrely treacherous woman, or more accurately, a highly dangerous woman. She seed kind to everyone, but as long as it benefited her, even betraying her best friend was within her capabilities and she would execute it without anyone being the wiser. The most ironic part was she was good at hiding her tracks, so even those betrayed by her would foolishly regard her as a benefactor and continue counting money for Wang Qian even after being sold out.
"Mhm, she ntioned it during the wedding for to tell you. This woman is bad news, sis; if it weren’t for the family watching, I wouldn’t even want to bother with her," Ji Yu, too, seed to have little regard for Wang Qian, which was understandable.
"Sis, I think you shouldn’t et with her. You’re abroad now, and she can’t threaten you, let alone our family," Ji Yu kept on advising. After a few incidents, she learned of Ji Qian’s identity and knew that however formidable the Wang Family was, they couldn’t reach the Underworld abroad. So even if Wang Qian wanted to harm Ji Qian, she would have to be wary of the "Moon God" identity.
"It’s okay. I’d like to see what kind of tricks she can pull."
"Sis."
"What is it?" Ji Qian curiously asked upon seeing Ji Yu’s hesitant expression.
"Aren’t you planning to co ho? Dad has been ntioning you these past few years."
"Sis, after so many years, why are you still dwelling on it?"
"Alright, that’s enough. Tell the ti Wang Qian has set for our eting." Ji Qian waved her hand, preparing to leave. Ji Yu was about to stop her, but Ji Qian blocked her with her Inner Strength.
........................
Yanjing, Crown Hotel.
When Ji Qian walked into the hotel again, her heart couldn’t help but stir. Just yesterday, Su Qingyu was severely injured and fell unconscious here. Although the incident was sealed off from the public, Wang Qian definitely already knew about it. But why did she choose this hotel as the eting place?
"Yo, Ji, long ti no see." Upon seeing each other, Wang Qian ca over to greet her personally. Ji Qian walked straight past her and sat down in a spot.
"What do you want with ?" Ji Qian spoke coldly, looking directly into Wang Qian’s eyes. The woman in front of her was no harmless little girl but a scheming woman with ambition. Ji Qian saw no need to be polite to her; although the two had known each other since childhood, Ji Qian had long seen Wang Qian’s true colors—they could not conspire as they were not on the sa path.
"Ji, what are you getting so fired up about? After so many years, can’t I invite you to et and catch up?" Wang Qian motioned with her hand, and a waiter respectfully poured a glass of red wine for Ji Qian.
"If it’s just for catching up, there’s no need. eting is sufficient. I’m very busy. If there’s sothing, just say it," said Ji Qian icily.
"Ji, I’ve been thinking about you all these years since you left Yanjing," Wang Qian replied with a smile, not mad but seemingly having anticipated Ji Qian’s cold deanor.
"Thank you, is there anything else?"
"Ji, it was quite a surprise to see you at Mr. Ye’s wedding. Are you friends with Mr. Ye?" After listening, Ji Qian scoffed coldly; Wang Qian was obviously feigning ignorance.
"Of course, I and Mr. Ye, Miss Su, are all very good friends," Ji Qian said flatly.
"Is that so? Then... Miss Su being severely injured and hospitalized, do you know about that?" said Wang Qian with a smile, and sure enough, her invitation to et Ji Qian was not without a purpose.
"I know, but how do you know?" Ji Qian replied with a question.
"Ha-ha, Ji, you’re a clever one; I also know how you feel about Mr. Ye. Miss Su being seriously injured, is that good or bad for you?"
