Shadow hung up and walked back quietly.

“Empress.”

“Yeah.”

The old woman sitting in the courtyard was fiddling with a blue and white porcelain vase emitting a gentle luster under the natural light. The delicate glaze showed she was holding a rare antique.

She was tall, thin, and had a cold temperament. Coupled with her outstanding bone structure, well-defined facial features, and her natural-born noble aura, she easily gave off an “unreasonable” feeling.

Although she was old, it did not affect her outstanding temperament. Her graceful bearing was different from ordinary people.

Shadow stopped in front of her, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Nie Qingru looked up and waved. “Come, come and take a look.”

“Yes.” Shadow obediently approached.

Nie Qingru raised the porcelain vase and asked with a smile, “What do you think of this vase? Will Qixing like it?”

Shadow did not dare to look at it too closely. He sized it up and lowered his eyes, then respectfully stepped back. “Master Qi likes to collect antiques. He should like your gift.”

“Yeah.”

Nie Qingru’s gaze fell on the blue and white porcelain vase. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she was. She placed the porcelain vase on the table, and her eyes gradually returned to their usual sharpness.

“Tell me, what is it?”

Shadow secretly looked up and saw her wiping her fingertips. He immediately lowered his head again. “Leonard’s matter.”

Nie Qingru stopped wiping her hands and looked at him from the corner of her eyes. “Huh?”

Shadow did not dare to beat around the bush. “Ji Ziyin was taken away by Lei Ting! Her relatives contacted us and want us to help her.”

“Hmph!” Nie Qingru sneered coldly. “I thought she did it so cleanly. How did she get discovered so quickly?”

She was more concerned.

“How did Leonard’s family discover her?”

Shadow knew she would be angry, but he had to mention that name. “It was Qiao Nian.”

Sure enough, Nie Qingru’s sneer faded away, and her eyes became gloomy. The air around her became much colder. “It’s her again.”

Shadow did not dare to reply.

Nie Qingru was no longer in the mood to admire the antiques on the table. She threw the handkerchief on the table and said with a cold expression, “Go and test Leonard’s family See if they can release her. Tell them to spare Ji Ziyin’s life on my account!”

Although Shadow could not agree with her way of handling things, he knew well why she was doing this. “Yes.”

Half an hour later.

Shadow was back.

This time, he stopped in front of Nie Qingru again and lowered his head. “Empress, Leonard’s family said this time, it involves their family’s private matters. They hope you won’t interfere.”

Nie Qingru was leisurely trimming the branches of the flowers, but upon hearing this, she exerted force with the scissors, and a blooming peony flower was cut at the waist, falling to the ground and scattering to all sides.

Shadow looked at the flower on the ground and held his breath. He stood humbly with his back hunched and with his head lowered, not daring to look at Nie Qingru.

After a short pause, Nie Qingru picked up the scissors again and trimmed a branch growing out from the side. Then, she lightly said, “It’s fine if they’re unwilling.

“It’s just Ji Ziyin. There’s no need for me to plan for her.”

Shadow did not say anything, nor did he interrupt her.

He actually understood why the Empress helped Ji Ziyin previously. It was nothing more than to make things difficult for Qiao Nian. She couldn’t bear to see the Ji family’s direct descendant do as she pleased.
