Perfect Secret Love novel Chapter 2036

"Actually, you don't need to be so depressed, Captain. As one of the four great clans, the Nie family has such a

large workload every day and also needs to maintain their relationships with all the external major factions, so you'd be tired to death. I think it's a good thing you aren't inheriting the Nie family," Taoist Devotee said to Nameless Nie with a snicker as he looked up.

Nameless Nie snorted. "Who said I'm depressed? I'm a free bird! I wouldn't want to be the head even they wanted me to, hmph!"

Brick-moving Foreigner turned to his captain and brightly said, "I just learned a saying, Captain. It's ˜Puffing oneself up at one's own cost'. Do you think it's a fitting description of you, Captain?"

Nameless Nie fiercely glared at Brick-moving Foreigner. "Don't you freaking know how to talk? Hold your tongue back if you don't know how to talk!"

Brick-moving Foreigner was dumbfounded. Did he get tricked again?

More and more leaders and important figures were entering the Nie residence, and everyone congratulated Madam Nie and Patriarch Nie with big grins.

"Tangtang, after your mom inherits the role as the head, you will become the heir to the Nie family. You have to behave and act responsibly, do you understand?" Madam Nie softly instructed Tangtang as she looked at the expressionless Tangtang sitting next to her.

Tangtang looked at Madam Nie and considered it for a moment before saying, "Grandma, I don't want to be the heir to the Nie family."

"Nonsense. You can't say these kinds of things," Patriarch Nie rebuked him with a frown, his expression changing when he heard that.

Before Tangtang could respond, the originally boisterous Nie residence abruptly turned quiet.

"Worriless Nie" was slowly walking to the center of the room in a long dress with a gentle smile hanging on her face.

Next to "Worriless Nie" was Nie Linglong.

Nie Linglong had an aloof smile on her face. After "Worriless Nie" inherited the Nie family, it would be the same as her gaining control.

At that time, she could use the Nie family's name to disintegrate the remaining three patrician families one by one.

"Oh right, Miss Worriless Is there any news of your fiancé, Emperor Ji, yet?" a middle-aged man inquired from the crowd.

"Worriless Nie" looked pensive and contemplated it for a moment before answering: "I'm greatly saddened by Xiuran's disappearance, and I've been looking into it this whole time. However, the news we obtained was that the disappearances all seem to bear some significant connection to the Fearless Alliance."

"Connected to the Fearless Alliance?"

A shock swept over the occupants of the room.
