Chapter 3867: Nie Qingru Had Long Discovered the Car Parked Outside

As the rational party, Qiao Nian had to guarantee the safety of the people she could easily bring out first before thinking about anything else.

Luo Fei hung up and carefully monitored the manor, ready to contact Qiao Nian at any time…

**

In the manor.

Shadow walked the long corridor and reached the living room. He saw the servant kneeling in front of Nie Qingru and serving her black tea.

The marks of time had long been etched on the noble Madam. What remained unchanged was her noble and outstanding temperament.

She took the exquisite teacup from the tray and caught a glimpse of someone coming in from outside.

“Is that car still parked on the roadside?”

Shadow did not dare to look anymore and lowered his head. “Yes, Empress.”

A trace of interest appeared on Nie Qingru’s face. She took a sip of black tea and said slowly, “Who do you think is outside?”

Shadow did not dare to make wild guesses. “I’m slow-witted.”

“Tsk.” Nie Qingru placed the teacup on the tray and raised her eyelids, her eyes filled with mockery. “Other than that evil creature, who else dares to approach this place?”

Lu Zhi might dare.

However, Lu Zhi wouldn’t do that with his personality.

At this thought, Nie Qingru suppressed her fluctuating emotions and looked up. “There’s no news of Xicheng yet?”

Shadow was silent.

“Hmph!” Nie Qingru’s expression suddenly turned cold. With a flick of her sleeve, she almost sent the teacup flying. But she did not care. “She said she didn’t do anything to Xicheng! Besides her, who else can make me unable to find any news!”

Shadow raised his head and said with a low voice, “Empress, is it possible that Young Master Di doesn’t want us to find him?”

Halfway through his sentence, a death-like gaze zeroed in on him.

Shadow naturally shut his mouth under such a gaze.

Nie Qingru’s expression was ugly. “Don’t say such things again!”

Shadow fell silent again.

Nie Qingru took a deep breath. “You know how guilty I feel towards him. I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t want to think about it. Do you understand what I mean?”

Shadow felt sorry for her.

He changed his attitude and nodded solemnly. “I’m sorry, Empress. I won’t say that again.”

Nie Qingru’s expression softened. “Mm.”

She thought of the car parked outside her manor for the whole night, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes. She ordered Shadow, “Find a few people and bring that person back.”

“Empress?”

Nie Qingru couldn’t find Di Xicheng’s whereabouts and was already extremely impatient. “Pfft, don’t they want to keep an eye on me? Come in and see more clearly!”

At this moment, someone rushed in to report the latest news from Continent M to Nie Qingru.

The Privy Council urged her to go back quickly.

The person was in a hurry.

Shadow deduced from her hurried footsteps that the news from Continent M was probably not good. He did not want to cause Nie Qingru any more trouble here.

Hence, he quickly bowed and said, “Then, I’ll go out first.”

“Go on.”

Nie Qingru had thought of the same thing.

After Shadow left, she sat back expressionlessly. She didn’t even look at the person as she asked, “Tell me, what does the Privy Council want?”

The person hunched her back and did not dare to look up. She stammered, “The archbishop wants you to call him immediately. He wants to talk to you about Beijing.”

Nie Qingru’s eyes flickered, and anger flashed across her face. However, she quickly suppressed it and waved her hand. “You can leave.”
