Chapter 2616 With This Size, Don't Tell Me It's a Fortune Tree?
Simon was shocked. "Heart of the King? Are you talking about the Heart of the King in the royal collection?"
"Yes." Ji Ziyin nodded slightly.
Simon's gaze turned to scrutinizing before he quickly hid it under his mask. He smiled and turned to Ji Lingfeng. "Emperor Ji is so lucky. The younger generation members of the Ji family are each more promising than the other. How enviable."
Ji Lingfeng maintained a cold expression the entire time as if he could not tell what it meant for Ji Ziyin to obtain something from the collection of the Country M's royal family.
Ji Ziyin's intent was not to give him diamonds.
That was only one of her goals. The other goal was to show her solid relationship with the reclusive families.
The elders did not respond, either. Only Ji Hongyuan forcefully interrupted, "The younger generation is indeed reassuring. It's a pity that there's an anomaly. A rat poop spoils a pot of porridge!"
"That's enough." Ji Lingfeng scolded him at his insinuation. He ignored Ji Ziyin in the beginning.
Ji Hongyuan was old and senior. It was rare for him to lose face in public. His face turned red and he clenched his fists, not daring to say anything else.
Everyone present knew who he was talking about.
Simon's expression also became subtle.
While they were talking, He Lin brought Qiao Nian and Feng Yu over.
"Patriarch, Little Miss and Elder Feng are here." He Lin placed the cardboard box on the ground and wiped his sweat.
At this moment, the elders, Ji Ziyin, Ji Xiao, and the rest looked at the girl walking over.
It was different from Ji Ziyin's dress-up.
Qiao Nian was still dressed as usual. She tried her best to be simple and comfortable. She walked forward and faced Ji Lingfeng, then said lightly, "Happy birthday."
Ji Lingfeng was distracted for a moment. It was as if he had seen another person through her. The trembling of his soul made him unable to come back to his senses for some time. It was only when He Lin called him again that he realized that it was Qiao Nian. "You…"
He pursed his trembling lips. When the words reached his mouth, they became the Ji family's characteristic indifference. "Ji Nan is inside. Sit with him later."
"Okay." Qiao Nian nodded. She had no objections.
Feng Yu exchanged a few pleasantries with Ji Lingfeng and did not look at Ji Ziyin and the rest.
Just because they did not cause trouble did not mean that they were willing to watch others steal their limelight.
Seeing that Qiao Nian was about to follow Feng Yu in, Ji Xiao glanced at the package He Lin placed on the ground and said half-jokingly, "What's that? Could it be a congratulatory gift from Miss Qiao to the Patriarch? Did she just buy it from the Internet?"
Suddenly…
Everyone's eyes fell on the cardboard box He Lin had placed on the ground.
The main reason was that the packaging looked too cheap. No matter how one looked at it, it looked like something casually bought outside.
"This size, could it be… something like a fortune tree?" Ji Xiao continued.
From the meaning between the lines, he looked down on Qiao Nian's gift. "I heard that Miss Qiao has her own business. There's no need to be so… down to earth?"
He Lin's expression darkened.
Before he could speak, the girl looked over casually and admitted frankly, "I didn't change the packaging. I was too lazy to open it. There's a small model inside. You can consider it a toy."
