However, the impression Nie Qingru left on her was too oppressive. In the end, Ji Ziyin did not dare ask why she had not come to the independent continent to deal with Leonard’s funeral.

She did the next best thing and ran to the hospital to look for Lei Ting.

Leonard’s death was strange. Lei Ting did not transport him back to Continent M. Instead, he sent people to guard the hospital and waited for Continent M’s instructions.

Lei Ting had just finished a call when she found him.

He strode towards the woman. Seeing her concerned expression, disgust flashed across his brows, but he endured it and answered her question. “It’s not that I don’t want to avenge Elder Leo. That Qiao Nian has the Ji family’s backing. Unless we deal with the Ji family first, we won’t be able to take revenge on their territory even if we want to.”

Ji Ziyin was so anxious that blisters appeared on her mouth. With a hypocritical expression, she asked curiously, “The Ji family still wants to help Qiao Nian?”

Lei Ting observed her expression and sneered. “Perhaps Elder Leo’s death is not enough.”

Ji Ziyin did not understand what he meant.

Lei Ting explained patiently, “Don’t you know? Qiao Nian has the power of Continent F behind her. Her boyfriend is not an ordinary person. If the Empress wants to touch her, she will probably have to think twice.”

Ji Ziyin’s eyes narrowed and she forced a smile. “Is that so?”

Lei Ting followed her words. “That’s right. She didn’t take Elder Leo’s death seriously at all. She even dared to ask me to meet her tomorrow. However, if she causes trouble again, I reckon the Empress won’t be able to tolerate it anymore.”

Ji Ziyin suddenly looked at him. ”   Qiao Nian asked for a meeting? Why?”

She felt a trace of uneasiness. It flashed past, and she could not grasp it even if she wanted to.

Lei Ting sneered and mockingly said, “She might want to tell me about Elder Leo. She came to me previously and said that there was something fishy about Elder Leo’s death. She said didn’t do it. Perhaps she found some evidence.”

His words were like a thunderclap in Ji Ziyin’s mind. She instinctively observed Lei Ting’s expression.

Seeing Lei Ting did not seem to believe Qiao Nian’s words, she heaved a sigh of relief.

However, Ji Ziyin still clenched her fists, not even noticing that her nails had dug into her flesh. Her heart raced. “What evidence can she find? She destroyed the surveillance cameras!”

Lei Ting scoffed. “How should I know? I’ll know when I see her at eight tomorrow morning.”

Ji Ziyin keenly caught this information, and the corners of her mouth twitched with great effort as she comforted him with concern. “Don’t worry too much. The Empress won’t ignore Elder Leo’s death. One day, Qiao Nian will receive the punishment she deserves!”

Lei Ting reflexively avoided her hand when she tried to pat his shoulder.

Ji Ziyin looked at him in surprise.

He suppressed his gloominess and apologized. “I’m sorry, it was a conditioned reflex. I didn’t mean anything else.”

Ji Ziyin knew he was skilled. Otherwise, Leonard would not have thought highly of him. She retracted her hand and did not take it to heart. “It’s fine.”

She had gotten a lot of information from Lei Ting, and her heart was in a mess. She did not want to deal with it anymore. “Then I won’t disturb you anymore. You go ahead with your work. I’m going back.”

Lei Ting did not ask her to stay. He even asked someone to send her out. It seemed he valued her highly.

Ji Ziyin did not sense anything amiss. She enjoyed the respect of Leonard’s family with a clear conscience and left the hospital under escort.
