After explaining to Qiao Nian, he turned to introduce her to the people from the reclusive family. “This is Qiao Nian, the future heir of our First Research Inst.i.tute.”
Feng Yu specially said this to increase Qiao Nian’s chances.
Sure enough.
The two people from the Privy Council beside Hooked Nose looked at Qiao Nian strangely. Compared to the coldness from before, they seemed to take her more seriously now.
However, Elder Lei in the middle was still expressionless. He did not greet Qiao Nian and interrupted Feng Yu’s introduction stiffly. He said to the girl directly, called you here today to talk to you about the information you submitted. You’re from Country Z. You’re not from the independent continent?”
This question was rather impolite!
Qiao Nian could sense his strong contempt and dissatisfaction from his tone and eyes.
Tsk.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and her att.i.tude was impatient and impolite. “Ah, no.”
Leonard’s face instantly darkened as he sized her up. “You’re a direct descendant of the Ji family. How can you not be from the independent continent?”
Zhou Zhou knew Qiao Nian’s temper and looked over worriedly.
As expected, the girl pressed down on her baseball cap. Her red lips parted slightly as she said casually, “You also aren’t from the independent continent.
Didn’t you come here too?”
Leonard’s expression changed.
This att.i.tude… Did she know who she was talking to?
Qiao Nian had always been this kind of person. She looked at him impatiently and asked, “Why are you looking for me?”
She did not want to waste time, so she simply said, ‘E lf you have something to say, say it. I’m busy.”
Feng Yu felt a chill on his back and was covered in sweat. He wished he could hold this little ancestor back. She was too infuriating.
The people of the Privy Council had never been treated so coldly before. The hook-nosed man was so angry that his face turned green. Because of the people present, he took out a doc.u.ment and threw it on the coffee table. “The Privy Council doesn’t accept Asians, especially those from Country Z.”
The Privy Council despised oriental faces, or rather, they despised short oriental people.
Leonard tried his best to speak to her calmly, but his tone still revealed his high and mighty mentality. “I’ve thought of a way for you. If you really want to enter the Privy Council, you can fill in a new doc.u.ment. The prerequisite is that you change your nationality to that of the independent continent. We can try to set a precedent for you.”
This was also a compromise they had come up with after an emergency meeting after receiving Qiao Nian’s information yesterday.
This time, the Ji family’s att.i.tude was very unyielding. They would not change candidates.
They wanted to push Qiao Nian into the Privy Council.
However, Qiao Nian was from Country Z. The Privy Council would never allow a lowly person like her to enter the core inst.i.tution. This was an insult to their reclusive families. It would lower their status…
“This is the result of our concession. There’s no room for negotiation. Think about it carefully.”
He said matter-of-factly, “It will take about half a month for you to change your nationality. I’ll give you 10 days. Find someone to do it and then send another application. We’ll review your qualifications then.”
He gestured for the girl to pick up the doc.u.ments on the table and said lightly, “This is your application form. Take it back and take a good look. It includes our requirements for you.”
Qiao Nian stood sideways with a playful expression.
“I’ll stay in the independent continent for this period to finish processing your business. If you have any questions, you can look for me. My hotel room number is…
He didn’t manage to finish..
