Chapter 3941: Chapter 3941: In the End, She Still Relies on Qiao Nian’s Reputation
Nie Qingru’s face instantly turned ashen, her fingernails dug into her flesh without her noticing the pain. She glared at Mo Xi intensely.
One moment, she was saying that Qiao Nian should be proud of having her blood flowing through her veins. The next moment, someone was pointing out that she relies on a blood relation with that wolf cub to stay safe. Nothing could be more humiliating than this.
Mo Xi ignored her glare, once again pushing his phone towards her, politely saying, "Empress, please."
"..." Nie Qingru looked at the phone pushed in front of her again, trembling with rage and feeling utterly embarrassed.
But given the current situation, she had no choice. A dozen pairs of eyes stared at her, and Nie Qingru was fully aware that if she didn’t comply, these people wouldn’t continue to ’politely’ chat with her...
As the empress of the reclusive family, being intruded upon and threatened at home was unbearable, akin to being slapped in the face.
She slowly reached out to take the phone, her expression cold, saying, "Even if I have my people stand down, it’s useless. Lu Zhi’s people won’t listen to me."
Mo Xi laughed, "No need for you to worry about that."
Nie Qingru vaguely sensed what they wanted to do, but with so many eyes watching her every move, she had no choice but to make a forced call to Shadow.
"Beep." The tone just sounded.
On the other end, Shadow immediately answered, "Hello?"
Nie Qingru glanced at the fierce men who had barged into the living room, took a deep breath, and said quietly, "It’s me."
Shadow recognized her voice, quickly saying, "Empress, are you alright? Just now..." Just now Nie Qingru didn’t have time to cut off the video upstairs, and he vaguely heard something happened at the manor.
Nie Qingru put it on speaker, pressed her lips and interrupted him, "A few guests came to the manor just now, I went out."
Shadow clearly sensed the implication in her words, somewhat urgently, "Empress..."
Nie Qingru didn’t give him a chance to continue, "Notify our people to stop immediately."
The phone was quiet for two seconds as if analyzing Nie Qingru’s current situation, and quickly compromised, "Yes! I understand."
Nie Qingru raised her eyes to look at the man wearing glasses, indicating with her gaze, ’Is this enough?’
Mo Xi smiled lightly, casually saying, "Thank you, Empress."
Nie Qingru hadn’t hung up, meaning Shadow could hear their conversation.
When a strange man’s voice appeared on Nie Qingru’s call, Shadow immediately understood, coldly saying, "I warn you not to mess around! Otherwise, I will tear you to pieces, drawn and quartered!"
Mo Xi took his phone from Nie Qingru, hearing the furious threat, gently pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, responding in good humor, "That’s what I wanted to say. If you want the Empress to remain unharmed, it’s best to protect Master Wang for us. Otherwise, you might only end up burying the Empress..."
"You dare!" Shadow was furious.
Mo Xi was much calmer, "Whether I dare depends on how well you do, if you fail, I wouldn’t have any reservations."
"Don’t harm the Empress, I..." Shadow still had something to say.
Mo Xi didn’t give him the chance, elegantly and casually hung up the call, interrupting Shadow’s urgent voice, leaving the living room in silence once again.
