The moment Nan activated the talisman, Zhao Yu-er, who was the holder of the other twin talisman, immediately sensed it. That was why Zhao Yu-er immediately interrupted the conversation and sent the others away.
As the duration of the Jade Shadow was limited, Nan did not bother to exchange pleasantries with Zhao Yu ‘er. They did not need to do this to begin with.
“Xiao Yu, I’ve found your father, but…” Nan went straight to the point.
Nan then briefly recounted what they had experienced in the Thousand Islands to the girl in the cheongsam. Zhao Yu-er listened quietly without interrupting.
Even when Nan mentioned Zhao Jie’s ridiculous ” son-in-law “, Zhao Yu ‘er did not say anything. However, the frown on the girl’s face was still visible to the naked eye.
“Alright, that’s the current situation. Xiao Yu, what do you think of your father? And your… Uh, fiancé?”
Nan looked like she was watching a show. She crossed her arms and leaned against the bookshelf. From the trembling of her shoulders, it was not difficult to tell that she was trying to hold back her laughter.
Zhao Yu-er did not reveal any angry or embarrassed expression. She only said indifferently,
“Nan, Uncle kept complaining to me a few days ago. He said that his daughter’s career has made a name for herself, but her family hasn’t settled down yet. If this drags on, she’ll be in her forties. He asked me to introduce you to a few good partners.”
“I originally said that Miss Nan definitely had her own plans and told Uncle not to worry, but now it seems…Hmm, if we release the news that the leader of the Cross is going on a blind date, it will definitely become big news in the entire Guili marriage search market. It might even bring a wave of fame to the industry…”
Seeing Zhao Yu-er’s expression as if she was really thinking about the feasibility, Nan immediately raised her hands in surrender.
Nan did not want to be fooled by the girl in the cheongsam opposite her. She had seen Zhao Yu-er’s ruthlessness too many times and her extremely vengeful personality. She did not dare to take the risk.
After Zhao Yu-er blocked Nan’s mouth and analyzed after a moment of silence,”
“Actually, when I entrusted you to go to the Thousand Islands, I also secretly investigated on the other side. It seems that the information we obtained is roughly the same. My father…Zhao Jie had indeed made some small achievements in Thousand Islands, but he soon went bankrupt overnight because of the turmoil of the three countries. However, after taking the Astorokis once, it was as if he had met a noble person on the way, and his career began to advance triumphantly.”
” First of all, we can rule out the possibility that Zhao Jie was lucky enough to be helped by this noble. Although such coincidences exist in the world, I’m more willing to believe that it’s the second possibility. This noble was one step ahead of me and knew about Zhao Jie’s identity, so he deliberately cast a trap.”
“Hiss! Xiao Yu, so you’re saying that your unmarried…Ahem, I’m referring to the guy behind this. Actually, it was premeditated to get closer to your father, and his ultimate goal was actually… You?”
Zhao Yu-Er nodded, but then quickly shook her head.
“That was what I thought, until…Just now, I learned from you that my father is… Zhao Jie called his noble son-in-law. I really don’t understand why the other party had to guide Zhao Jie in this direction. What are the benefits of doing so? Other than making me feel hostility, there doesn’t seem to be anything else?”
This was the first time Nan had seen such a frown on the face of this intelligent young lady who could ascend to the position of Qilin Pavilion Master. She looked puzzled.
“Xiao Yu, is there a possibility that the fellow behind your father actually wants to use this method to express to you…Love? Adoration?”
Unfortunately, Nan only received a roll of her eyes from Zhao Yu ‘er.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll be at ease. At that time, I can tell him directly that I don’t like men and only like women.”
Nan gave the girl in the cheongsam a thumbs up.
Just as she had said before, Zhao Yuer was not just saying some things.
Nan had seen it with her own eyes too many times. When Zhao Yu ‘er attended the banquet, she used the same sentence without changing her expression and rejected countless of her pursuers.
Nan could still remember the ashen faces of the rich and powerful families and the scene where they wanted to say something but could not say anything and could only leave dejectedly.
“Forget it. There’s still too little information. The current demand that the other party has made is the blueprint of Planet Annihilation? Tell them that I can, but I have to participate in their Sakuragi Island. If they agree, then what’s the harm in giving them a blueprint that can never be replicated?”
” Okay, I understand. I’ll convey it. Oh, right, I found something about foreigners on Sakuragi Island. It’s a particularly interesting business strategy. Xiaoyu, come and take a look.””
Later on, Nan told Zhao Yu ‘er about the business model invented by the little wolves on Sakuragi Island. They did not sell finished products to foreigners, but in the form of raw embryos. They let foreigners decide whether to continue forging raw embryos and set up a recycling business.
Zhao Yu-er listened very carefully and even tapped her fingers on the table. Once this small action appeared, Nan knew that the girl in the cheongsam opposite her was moved.
“Anyway, whether or not we should use this plan on the foreigners in our territory, Xiao Yu, you can decide for yourself. However, after the battle on Cherry Tree Island, it has indeed changed my impression of foreigners. In terms of foreigners, our Gui Li can be said to be far behind Cherry Tree Island.”
