Keep an Eye on Qixing and Don't Let Him Cause Trouble for Me

"Oh?" As expected, Nie Qingru looked at him with a playful expression. "You want to deal with Qiao Nian?"

"Yes." Elder Xue watched as she stared at him with a faint smile. He had always acted appropriately and calmly.

Nie Qingru gradually retracted her ridicule and calmly asked, "Why? Aren't you close to her?"

Elder Xue frowned and pursed his lips. "Because she has affected the reclusive families' reputation."

"Oh? Just for this?" Nie Qingru did not quite believe him.

Elder Xue looked at her frankly and said in a deep voice, "Empress, there are many conflicts within the reclusive families, but to outsiders, we are a unit. I don't want anyone to shake our foundation. This is also my principle and bottom line!"

His meaning was clear.

Qiao Nian's existence had already begun to shake the reclusive families' foundation. This was something he did not want to see.
