Chapter 3483: The Ji Family’s Situation Is Harder Than I Thought

Editor: Atlas Studios

Xu Yi didn’t want to argue with her about this nonsense. He turned on the tap and rinsed the test tube before calmly saying, “Since it wasn’t mentioned, it’s just wordplay. Let’s wait and see.”

Xue Zhu’s restless heart calmed down for no reason upon seeing him throwing himself into the next set of data collection.

She didn’t know if Xu Yi was right. After some hesitation, she went to the cabinet and grabbed her cell phone before sending a message to Qiao Nian.

——[Are you alright?]

There was no response even after she waited for some time.

Xue Zhu couldn’t sit still and found an excuse to see if the dean had returned.

In fact, Qiao Nian had been so busy these past two days that she had no time to care about the boring gossip in the First Research Institute.

Since she had decided to help the Ji family through its most difficult time, she had to take action.

Bright Gate had a certain deterrent force in the independent continent, and she could indeed ask Ye Wangchuan for help… However, what happened at the pier was an anomalous event. It was impossible to stabilize the Ji family’s internal chaos by relying on this alone, and others couldn’t give up on the Ji family.

For the past two days, most forces had sent people to the hospital to visit Ji Lingfeng.

Xie Yun and Nan Tianyi discussed the news of Ji Lingfeng’s hospitalization and agreed to let these people visit. However, after careful consideration, they still used the excuse that Ji Lingfeng had just undergone surgery and it was not suitable for him to receive visitors to keep them out of the ward.

This approach seemed impeccable.

However, people also realized that Ji Lingfeng’s health was pretty bad.

Some of them, intimidated by Qiao Nian’s tough methods at the harbor, began to think again.

Recently, many factions had begun to privately interact with the few uncontrolled halls in the south.

Fortunately, Qiao Nian had previously forced Second Elder and the others to publicly deal with the Third Southern Hall. This could be considered a reminder to the disobedient halls.

At least those people listened to his advice and did not dare to easily ally with outsiders.

Qiao Nian knew these deterrences couldn’t suppress the Ji family for long. They just didn’t dare to act rashly for the time being.

Once they were given a chance, they would definitely bite her hard from the inside.

Hence, she looked for Ji Nan and Xie Yun to learn more about the Ji family’s situation.

Forget about Ji Nan, he didn’t know much.

Xie Yun, on the other hand, knew a little more. She roughly explained who could be used, who were disobedient, and who were wily old foxes…

Qiao Nian’s head almost exploded. She rubbed her throbbing temples hard. After not resting for two days, her eyes were bloodshot, cold, and dry.

“So there aren’t many obedient people in the Ji family now?”

“…You’re right to think of it that way.”

In the past two to three days, Xie Yun had watched Qiao Nian rush around dealing with the series of trivial matters caused by Ji Lingfeng’s sudden hospitalization. She felt a little guilty looking at her tired expression.

“Nian Nian, why don’t you go back and sleep? Anyway, these things can’t be rushed. When Lingfeng wakes up…” She couldn’t continue.

Not to mention that they didn’t know when Ji Lingfeng would wake up, even if he woke up right now, he couldn’t do anything in his current condition. It was even difficult for him to get out of bed.

Qiao Nian knew this too. She waved at Xie Yun. “I’m fine.”

She just hadn’t rested, and her mind was buzzing. Coincidentally, Qiao Nian remembered something Ji Nan had inadvertently mentioned.
