"Don't worry about him. I'll go and settle the accounts with him in a few days. It's a villain's behavior." Qi Tiezui packed up and left the room. He didn't say a single extra word, but at the end he left one sentence, "Get some rest early."
Ji Lanqian said "hmm" as a response.
She hardly slept much in the second half of the night. She took out her notebook and drew a relationship diagram of Jiumen's characters, adding Xu Nanshan's name under Qi Baye.
Based on their conversation, it is estimated that they have been entangled for three years over a tomb in Yuzhou. The identity of Xu Nanshan is not yet known, but it can be seen today that he can attract ghosts and scare people.
Probably a warlock too.
Early the next morning, Qi Tiezui threw her a gray coat and said, "Put on this."
Ji Lanqian had already put on a cyan cheongsam, with her hair half pulled up and fixed with a hairpin, and a jade pendant hanging around her neck.
She sat in front of the mirror and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. Such a monotonous coat looked like a Taoist priest. Her crimson lips parted lightly and said, "I won't wear it."
"It's up to you. After all, it's a gathering of the Nine Gates. If you don't choose to stand in line, you will be chewed to pieces by those guys when you go in." He crossed his chest and said in a calm tone. After that, he raised his feet and went to the banyan tree. Continue to sit down.
He looked like it was none of his business.
She looked at the gray coat, which was made of better material, as if it was custom-made for her.
Wearing a coat means that she is a member of the Qi family, and it also means that she is a member of the Nine Sects.
Chen Pi Ah Si's cruel appearance suddenly came to mind. She could not fall into his hands again.
Just change into your coat and come out.
Qi Tiezui's eyes glanced over, and he was stunned for a moment. She had a different kind of coldness in her coat. The tail of her eyes was raised, and she looked like a little fox when she squinted.
"Let's go." She said.
Qi Baye stood up and walked out side by side with her, nagging a few more words, "Say in advance that you won't be targeted by other families, especially the Jie family."
She nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, I understand."
"Don't take it seriously. I won't be able to take care of you when the time comes. You can just pretend to be stupid or act like a young lady with a willful temper. Don't act like a loser and let others manipulate you."
Qi Baye lowered his eyes slightly and looked at her.
She was only as tall as her own shoulders. She was so thin and small that she couldn't hold up her coat.
Being seen through her thoughts, Ji Lanqian did have the idea of showing off at first, so she agreed to stay in the Qi family's old house, and she didn't have to go home to see her father.
Her lowered eyelashes covered the look in her eyes, "Don't worry, they can't bully me yet. I'm the eldest daughter of the Ji family, and I'm very good at using my power to suppress others."
"It better be this way."
Qi Baye held his hands behind his back and worried about her endlessly.
The people from Jiumen had to use this violent method to gain some respect from them.
the other side.
The residence of Lord Zhang Buddha.
Adjutant Zhang stood aside. His last injury was almost healed. He said respectfully, "Miss Ji was only a little frightened last time but not injured. Just as you guessed, she seems to be more than just superficial, or Said she hid her strength."
Buddha nodded and put down the newspaper in his hand.
"How is she doing at Qi's house these days?"
"I heard from Mr. Ba that Miss Ji met a ghost for the first time and was so frightened that she stayed up all night and insisted on keeping him company. But when she encountered something strange again yesterday, her adaptability was so strong that she would not have reacted well when she drew a gun. Like someone who is afraid of ghosts." The adjutant conveyed the message from Master Ba to Lord Buddha in detail.
"She was able to escape from the foreign mercenaries alone. It can only be considered bad luck to run to the top floor and meet Chen Pi Asi." Fo Ye opened a document.
It is newly acquired recently. I checked Ji Lanqian’s life in Germany in recent years.
"Do you suspect that she is working for Commander Ji in the Nine Gates?" The adjutant narrowed his eyes, and there was a hint of suspicion on his handsome features.
After all, this is a reasonable guess.
"Have to guard against it."
As Buddha spoke, he looked at the classes she was taking in Germany, running his fingers through the normal schedule until he saw, "Anatomy? What is she doing studying this?"
The adjutant lowered his eyes and said, "The person who collected the information said that she only studied for a month before returning to China. She may have learned it out of temporary interest."
Buddha closed the document with a deep look in his eyes. This little girl was becoming more and more interesting.
Ji Lanqian learned all kinds of things in Germany and couldn't see anything wrong with it, but it was full of mistakes everywhere.
Someone knocked on the door and bowed his head respectfully, "Buddha's time is up. The car is already waiting downstairs."
Buddha stood up and said, "Okay."
At this time, they should also go to Jiumen's banquet.
At this time, Yishan Tower.
As soon as Qi Baye and Ji Lanqian arrived downstairs, they met a car and stopped at the entrance of Yishan Building. A man in a suit with meticulously combed hair and gold-rimmed glasses got out of the car.
He played with the fine jade in his hand and greeted Qi Baye, with a smooth aura all over his body.
When Qi Baye saw the visitor, he had a slight smile on his face and joked, "Hey, are you willing to come out of the chessboard?"
"I've learned a lot about new chess games in the past few days, but I haven't seen you for a long time. Come to Jie's house and play a game of chess with me when you have time." Jie Jiu.
After saying that, he looked at the girl wearing a coat beside him, with a tiger-like smile on his face, "This must be Miss Ji, my surname is Jie, I am the ninth in the family, and my family is in business. .”
Ji Lanqian responded calmly, "Master Jie Jiu is too polite. You don't have to call me Miss Ji. Just call me Ji Lanqian."
Xie Jiu curled her lips slightly, "Miss Ji is joking, you are the number one non-staff member of the Nine Sects. If I can help you, you must come to the Jie family to find me."
He put a high hat on her and highlighted her identity.
Ji Lanqian nodded, as if he understood what Master Qi Ba said to avoid Jie Jiu. He could tell in just a few words that she was definitely no match.
Jie Jiu squinted his eyes, Ji Lanqian looked quite well-behaved this time, not like what Buddha said. If she hid it so deeply, she was really young and promising.
Qi Baye looked at Jie Jiu with something more and more wrong. It was a kind of scrutiny, an expression used to calculating people. He urged, "Okay, hurry up and enter. Don't think about it. Ji Lanqian is wearing a coat today." .”
On a deeper level, I hope Mr. Jie Jiu will not embarrass Ji Lanqian for his sake.
Jie Jiu heard what he meant, nodded and smiled, extending his hand to let them in first with the invitation gesture, "Don't worry, Master Ba, I have no intention of stealing anyone from you."
He has not forgotten the recent rumors that Mr. Qi Ba is going to be the son-in-law of the Ji family, and he and Miss Ji have a close relationship.
Qi Baye clicked his tongue and saw Jie Jiu smiling like a cunning fox.
Of course he can't be trusted. After all, they know each other too well after being together for so many years.
