He looked at the girl in front of him more like a comprehensive contradiction.

She had both the sharp side and the restrained side of the Ji family. She was like a fully strung bow, sharp and with a bottom line.

“Someone is spreading rumors in the Privy Council that you’re fooling around with men.” The silver-haired old man ignored Feng Yu’s shock and continued,

“They even said that you used your connections to help the scientific research team of Country Z steal the research results that didn’t belong to them.”

The girl’s eyes had turned cold when he mentioned Country Z. He knew that she was not interested in the rumors about her, but she cared that others were talking about her home country.

He picked up his coffee cup and took another sip before continuing in a light tone, “To prove their words, they talked about how Country Z had not developed a chip for decades. They insisted that Country Ts chip technology was stolen and not developed by themselves.”

“Tsk.

Qiao Nian was not stupid. She could tell that the other party was deliberately provoking her, but she had to admit that their guess was very accurate. She was indeed angered.

“Who did this?”

The silver-haired old man elegantly put down the cup and looked back up at her. “What do you think?”

Qiao Nian lifted her baseball cap, revealing an exquisite and eye-catching face. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she exuded a mysterious aura. “Oh, Ji Ziyin?”

The silver-haired old man did not admit or deny it. He placed his hand on the circular coffee table.

Qiao Nian had already stood up. She took her cell phone and lowered her eyes.

“Thank you.”

Seeing that she was about to leave, Feng Yu also hurriedly stood up. “You’re leaving?”

The silver-haired old man did not stop her. He sat back relaxedly and then slowly said, “It’s a fact that they look down on the Oriental people and Country Z, and it’s also a fact that they keep saying that the East is backward in technology, thus their line about Country Z not having their own chip technology for decades… You can shut up one Ji Ziyin, but can you shut up all of them?”

Qiao Nian suddenly turned around and narrowed her dark eyes dangerously.

“Even if you can shut everyone up, they won’t accept it! Human prejudice is like a mountain. It can’t be shifted overnight.”

He calmly accepted the girl’s gaze. “So, Miss Qiao, I want to ask you if you’re interested in moving this mountain away from the Privy Council?”

“Why would you do that?” Qiao Nian did not answer his question directly.

The silver-haired old man froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. He slowly picked up the cup of coffee and took another sip, then casually said, “Because I also have eastern blood flowing in my body.”

Qiao Nian suddenly remembered that he was shorter than Feng Yu. She knew that he was most likely of mixed race, but she did not expect him to be half-Oriental.

Elder Xue?

She recalled the important figures in the Privy Council that Ye Wangchuan had mentioned to her before and remembered who Elder Xue was.

She did not make any promises. She simply took her things and said, “I’ll settle this matter.’

If she said she would settle it, she would definitely settle it.

When Qiao Nian returned to the villa, Qin Si had just come out with a bowl of instant noodles. Upon seeing her, he walked towards the living room in confusion. “Sister Qiao, why are you back so early today?”

He looked at the clock and found it even stranger. “You usually come back at six or seven, but it’s not even three yet..”
