"The He family's illegitimate son returned from overseas."
"But, what can he do? He's just a bastard son." Ji Xinglu's face was filled with disgust.
When he looked at his daughter's face his expression turned grim. Because she's indirectly mocking him for having illegitimate children outside.
And he knew the only flaw in his daughter is that she wouldn't take illegitimate children seriously.
"You shouldn't underestimate them. Talent is based on individuals and not on whether their birth is righteous." He replied with a cold face.
When she saw her father's ugly expression although she's annoyed inside, she apologized obediently.
It's not the right time to go against her father. She's not strong enough and she needs him.
"I'm sorry dad."
"It's okay. Just don't make this mistake again. Underestimating your opponents is the worst mindset in a war."
She just nodded lightly.
"Anyways, that He Xu is not a simple person. According to my sources, he's a part of the Blue Iris organization."
"What?!! The Blue Iris organization?! The one which always competes with the Red nation?" Ji Xinglu gasped at the news and was so shocked.
The Blue Iris organization has a mighty reputation. It was founded five years ago. Their influence is unknown. But most of the powerful figures of the various countries fear the mysterious boss of this organization.
Though it's hard to know the news about this organization, the one open secret of them is that they compete with the Red nation openly with everything.
She didn't know that her father was capable enough to gather the information about having He Xu be part of this organization.
"Yes. And that He Xu's resentment towards the He family is obvious to everyone in the upper circle." Ji Shuiheng is pleased to see the admiration in his daughter's eyes.
"He's currently studying in your school. Get to know him personally. Don't get romantically involved with him. He's dangerous, so just friendship is enough."
He advised his daughter thoughtfully.
Ji Xinglu got repulsed at his thoughts. Who wants to have anything to do with a bastard child. But she didn't show it on her face and responded accordingly.
Though he's a bastard child, the organization behind him is a great temptation to her. If she could get acquainted with some core figures of the organization through him, then it's enough.
Like that the father and daughter duo were immersed in their own thoughts throughout the journey.

Mo Ling returned to her room after bickering with Bi Yuhan. She felt complicated inside and felt that something was amiss between them. But she didn't know what.
Distracted, she opened her tablet and logged into her email which is exclusive to her identity.
She happened to see the reply which she's expecting and instantly focused her gaze on the reply.
[ Protector Shi: Marcus Smith is incharge of all the affairs in Red Nation currently. Your mother is presumably dead and your brother is missing. Your cousins Mark and Lucas Smith are undergoing Heir assessments in Crown academy right now. They probably need three more years to complete the training and pass the assessment according to their current ability. Right now the biggest problem the Red Nation facing is the Blue Iris organization. The boss of this organization is oddly against the current reigning power of the Red Nation.
Your Highness, when will you return? ]
After reading the message, Mo Ling coldly laughed.
'Brother is missing.. the jackals Mark and Lucas dare to covet the heir position? Do they think they have enough abilities? Haha..'
Looking at the last sentence for a moment she typed unhurriedly..
