Qiao Nian could tell that he did not believe her. “I’m not 100% sure. I’m just guessing.
“As for who saved him? Why did he appear there? Why didn’t he contact the independent continent these past few days… These are still mysteries for the time being.”
Ji Nan looked at her nervously, sweating profusely. His clenched fists clenched and unclenched. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, did not.
Qiao Nian could tell that he was anxious to find out the truth, especially if his father was still alive…
However, she could not give him a definite answer.
At this moment, Qiao Nian’s cell phone suddenly rang.
She took it out and casually looked down. Seeing the caller ID on the screen, she was stunned for a moment before handing the cell phone to Ji Nan.
“It’s Auntie Xie.”
Ji Nan came back to his senses and took the cell phone, It was indeed his mother.
His cell phone was lost at sea.
Previously, he had used Qiao Nian’s cell phone to call his mother, so it was normal for her to call him at this number. Ji Nan pursed his lips and said to the girl in a low voice, “I’ll take this call.”
“Go ahead.” Qiao Nian put her hands in her pockets casually.
Ji Nan walked away to answer the call.
Qiao Nian could not leave without her cell phone, so she could only wait for him to finish the call.
Ji Nan was about 10 meters away, and she could vaguely hear him saying, “Now? But we haven’t found him yet.”
Ji Nan fell silent.
Then, Qiao Nian heard his hoarse voice. “I understand.”
Finished with the call, Ji Nan returned the cell phone and did not hide it from her. “My mother asked me to return to the independent continent. She said that the family hasn’t been peaceful since Ji Ziyin returned.”
Qiao Nian’s eyebrows rose, and she said with a faint smile, “She’s never absent when troubles arise.’
Ji Nan knew that she was talking about Ji Ziyin’s personality, given that she would appear when she sensed benefits. His young and determined face was a little dejected and helpless. “My mother never interfered in the family’s matters in the past. My father had always been in charge alone. Now that my father and I aren’t at home, those old fellows in the family won’t take her seriously. She won’t be able to last long. So, I have to go back. I can’t let her face them alone…
Qiao Nian’s exquisite eyes were cold as she said, “Do you think they will care about you?”
Ji Nan was taken aback by her straightforward question. Smiling bitterly, he shrugged and looked back helplessly. “If not, what should I do? My mother is alone at home, they have even less to fear! At least I’m still the Ji family’s direct descendant. They still have to worry about their status.”
Qiao Nian was someone who had fought her way out of a pile of dead people in Continent F. She knew the weakness of human nature very well, so she did not think much of Ji Nan’s words. “Ji Ziyin wants the position of the Ji family’s Matriarch. You won’t be able to stop anything by yourself as long as your father doesn’t appear.
“They don’t care about the so-called ‘bloodline’.”
Ji Nan was affected by the girl’s cold expression.
Qiao Nian casually said, “In the face of benefits, humans devolve into animals. When an elephant falls, no one cares if the baby elephant is at home. They will only discuss how to split this behemoth..”
