Chapter 3304: Nie Qixing Fell In Love With His Biological Sister

Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing that she did not look too good, Shadow raised his head slightly and asked, “Empress, what did Qiao Nian say? If she’s willing to cooperate, there’s still room for negotiation…”

He knew that Qiao Nian had posted an old photo of the Empress on Instagram.

It had just been rumored that Young Master Qi was hiding a woman during the weapons exhibition.

At this juncture, Qiao Nian’s photo was almost fatal!

Once the Privy Council saw the old photo of the Empress that Miss Ji Qing had saved, they would immediately realize that the woman that Young Master Qi was hiding was not like Miss Ji Qing at all, but like the Empress when she was young!

Although the Empress and Miss Ji Qing were mother and daughter…

However, there was still a slight difference between them.

For example, when she was young, the Empress was even more domineering and cold. Her temperament kept people a thousand miles away.

She was a typical cold beauty.

As for Miss Ji Qing, she was gentler and more scholarly.

Rather than saying that the woman Young Master Qi was hiding was 30% similar to Miss Ji Qing, it would be more accurate to say that she was 80% similar to the young Empress!

In other words… Young Master Qi had inappropriate thoughts about the Empress.

Shadow had a headache when he thought of this.

He stole a glance at the person walking in front of him.

After all, he was a grown adult and knew what was going on.

Even if the Empress maintained herself well and had always lived a pampered life, with very few things she needed to do herself… time still left an indelible mark on her face. The fine lines at the corners of her eyes and brows that could not be hidden were all traces of time.

However, she and Qiao Nian were similar people.

Their aura was too strong.

People easily overlooked their age at first glance and subconsciously submitted to their aura. He did not know when Young Master Qi had developed abnormal feelings for the Empress.

However, the insurmountable age difference between the Empress and Young Master Qi was undeniable.

They were biological siblings!

Same parents!

This was also why everyone had such a big reaction when they realized the secret in the photo. The Privy Council even forced the Empress to make a quick decision.

The Empress was the symbol of the reclusive families.

They would not allow such a stain to exist on her.

Therefore, it would be fine if Qiao Nian cooperated. They could still deny it and claim that the person Young Master Qi liked was the dead Ji Qing.

If Qiao Nian did not cooperate…

Then the Empress would have to deal with Young Master Qi to protect the reclusive families and her reputation.

And the best way to cover up such an ugly matter was to make that person with inappropriate intentions… completely disappear from this world!

This time, Qiao Nian played them like monkeys step by step. Her methods were so sharp that she did not look like she was only 20 years old. It was too terrifying.

No wonder the Empress often said she was too much like Old Master Ji back then.

However, Shadow still had some illusions. “You’re her grandmother, and you even went to look for her. You’re even willing to find doctors for Master Cheng. She probably won’t hold on to it… She’s really after Young Master Qi’s life.”

At this moment, Nie Qingru finally spoke, “… Of course she won’t take Qixing’s life.”

“That’s good.” Shadow heaved a sigh of relief.

Right on the heels of that, Nie Qingru continued in a suppressed cold tone, “What she wants is for me to do it myself.”

Shadow’s pupils trembled, and his heart turned cold. A bucket of ice water splashed down, and he subconsciously asked, “Then, Empress, you…”

He wanted to know what the Empress would choose.

Young Master Qi was still…

Nie Qingru’s brows furrowed fiercely, and her expression was terrifyingly dark. She did not answer his question directly. Instead, she said, “Let’s go and see him first.”

Shadow knew she was talking about Nie Qixing, but his heart skipped a beat.

The Empress wouldn’t…

However, Nie Qingru had already walked forward.

He could only follow closely behind.
