Chapter 2894 She Didn't Follow the Original Plan

Ji Ziyin felt the way everyone looked at her had become less friendly.

She could only bite the bullet now. "… There are rules in the independent continent about not implicating unrelated people."

"Pfft." The girl laughed, as if what she said was ridiculous.

Then, she ignored her.

Qiao Nian looked at the elders with a steeled gaze, then calmly asked, "What about you? Are you thinking the same as her?"

This…

Fourth Elder and Second Elder looked at each other.

It was rare for the two of them to reach a consensus.

"The Ji family's people can't die in vain." Second Elder's eyes darkened.

Fourth Elder also clenched his fists and suppressed his pain. "I think so too. The Ji family's people can't die for no reason."

"Oh." Qiao Nian slowly retracted her gaze and calmly said, "Just do as I say."

"Yes."

Mo Dong shot Ji Ziyin a meaningful look as he brushed past her.

Ji Ziyin almost lost her footing when he bumped into her shoulder. Her chest heaved up and down as she suppressed her anger and said, "I'm going to the washroom."

In a secluded corner at the entrance.

Ji Ziyin took out her cell phone and made a call.

It rang seven or eight times before the call was picked up.

"What's wrong with you now? Has the matter been settled? Those people from the Ji family should have a whole new level of respect for you, right?" Leonard asked arrogantly.

He seemed certain that the Ji family elders would compromise. He was even in the mood to drink wine. "Did they treat you as a savior and beg you to take over as the patriarch? After all… the Ji family can't wait any longer! If they continue to wait, it won't be as simple as an accident at a branch hall. The other branch halls will get into trouble one after another…"

Ji Ziyin's expression became uglier and uglier as he spoke. She could not help but interrupt him. "Elder Leo, things didn't develop as we imagined." Leonard said, "What do you mean? Those old fogeys from the Ji family still refuse to relent? Impossible…"

Ji Ziyin told him what had happened.

Leonard took a deep breath and put the glass of red wine down. He was no longer in the mood to drink. He angrily said, "Didn't I ask you to hand them the leader of the East Pole Organization? Why did you let him go?!"

He was the mastermind behind everything this time.

Putting it bluntly, the East Pole Organization was Leonard's knife!

As one of the three heads of the Privy Council, he naturally had his own faction in the independent continent.

He spent many years nurturing the East Pole Organization.

This time, he did not hesitate to sacrifice one of his cards to create a chance for Ji Ziyin to establish her prestige. Who knew that she would mess it up?

Ji Ziyin also knew she did not do as per the agreement. She bit her lip. "I thought the East Pole Organization could still be used. It would be a waste to destroy it for no reason. Besides, I also thought it was not easy for you to nurture an organization…"

Leonard gave a fake smile. "Hmph, I think you wanted to take the opportunity to show off and take my faction under your wing?!"

She did the East Pole Organization's leader a favor and let him go.

Wouldn't that person be very grateful to her?

Would he not become her person after this incident?
