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 Institute."
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, "I 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 attitude was impatient and impolite. "Ah, no."
