"Who?"

Nan Shu was curious.

Li Feng hummed twice, keeping everyone in suspense, before slowly saying, "Yang Min."

Nan Shu had never heard of this name before.

But the surname Yang…

"That is, Yang Kong's cousin."

Li Feng explained.

Nan Shu suddenly realized.

"Xiao Nan, you're not surprised at all?!" Li Feng was surprised to see Nan Shu's calm expression and lack of reaction, which he had expected.

Nan Shu was actually a little surprised, but only slightly.

Perhaps even before knowing that the candy wrapper was a product of the Yang family, they had already subconsciously assumed that the Yang family must have something going on.

Nan Shu didn't expect that before her older brother could find any clues related to the car accident, the Yang family would 'self-destruct' first.

The man was apprehended in Beijing.

original.

After discovering that Liu Wenyao's backers were from Beijing, the Economic Crime Investigation Department contacted the special task force in Beijing and launched a covert joint investigation.

The Yang family naturally came into the sights of the task force, but because there was not much solid evidence, the operation was never made public, and very few people knew about it.

Yang Kong, Yang Min's cousin, was even more outrageous than Yang Min. Both were spoiled rich kids, but because Yang Min's father was weak-willed and mediocre, their family was somewhat marginalized. Naturally, Yang Min was not as good at causing trouble as Yang Kong.

But things took a turn for the better.

Yang Kong has committed a crime and gone to jail. Moreover, because of the Nan family, it will probably take at least ten years for him to get out.

The internal structure of the Yang family immediately underwent a dramatic change, as Yang Yu was a woman and not good at business.

The title of heir naturally fell to Yang Min, who was closest to Yang Kong by blood.

Once Yang Min gained power, he naturally became arrogant and his words and actions became increasingly unrestrained.

He was arrested for hit-and-run while intoxicated, and during his escape, he injured five pedestrians and a traffic policeman. The incident made the official news that very night.

But after Yang Min was arrested, he still made arrogant remarks, saying that he would be released soon and that the common people could do nothing to him.

In this era where everyone has a mobile phone and everything can be posted online, Yang Min's manner of saying this was recorded by passersby and sparked a considerable discussion online.

Yang Min was unaware of this.

After being taken to the police station, he was still drunk and even threatened the police officers, saying that when he got out, he would find someone to kill the officers and level the place. He also threatened the two interrogators with the officers' families.

When the police questioned him, Yang Min spilled the beans, revealing everything about the Yang family's loan sharking, money laundering, and cultivating influence.

This statement came out.

The task force immediately received the information and, following Yang Min's account, launched an investigation. They discovered that the Yang family had engaged in more than just this, including dozens of illegal business practices such as tax evasion, using substandard processing raw materials, and false advertising.

Since Yang Min went to prison, other members of the Yang family have been taken away for investigation.

As the saying goes, when disaster strikes, everyone flies away. Even the largest family may not be united. When faced with danger, people instinctively want to protect themselves.

Plus.

Yang Kong's imprisonment showed the Yang family the ruthlessness of Old Master Yang. For the sake of the family's interests, Old Master Yang was so heartless as to sacrifice his own grandson, let alone the collateral branches.

It's better to save yourself than to rely on Old Master Yang to save your life.

So, in an attempt to reduce their sentences, the Yang family members turned on each other, pointing fingers at one another.

Powerful families often begin to decay and collapse from within.

With a little external force, such as some powerful families who had long disliked the Yang family adding fuel to the fire, the thousand-mile dike collapsed in an instant.

During this period, Nan Shu has been following up on the progress of the case.

The internet is abuzz with discussion about Yang Min and the Yang family.

Upon hearing that Grandpa Yang had also been taken away for investigation, Nan Shu bought the earliest flight and flew to Beijing.

After getting off the plane, Nan Shu got into her older brother's car, and the two went back to the old house together. "Uncle Zhu, how is Grandpa?"

Seeing Zhu Changbai come out of Old Master Nan's room, Nan Shu asked in a low voice.

"Let's go to the front hall to talk."

Zhu Changbai gestured for silence and said.

The three of them arrived at the front hall. Zhu Changbai sighed softly, looked at Nan Shu's worried expression, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the old man is fine. It's just that he hasn't been in a good mood these days. His emotions have been fluctuating a lot, and he looks a bit haggard. He didn't sleep at all last night."

Mr. Yang was taken away for investigation last night.

"His mental fortitude isn't very good."

Nan Yannian commented.

Zhu Changbai: ...

"Your grandfather is quite old; it's normal for him to feel sentimental."

Zhu Changbai glared at Nan Yannian, "Don't compare your subordinates to the old man, okay?"

It's like everyone's been young before.

"When he was young, my grandfather wasn't good at judging people, and now that he's older, his eyesight is even worse."

Nan Yannian spoke calmly.

"..."

Zhu Changbai really couldn't refute that.

Old Master Nan built the Nan family business from scratch, so his intelligence and strategy must be exceptional. However, when it came to Old Master Yang, he was "blind in the eyes and mind" and failed to recognize his true character.

If Nan Shu hadn't complained, Old Master Nan would probably still have been trying to matchmake Yan Nian and Yang Yu.

Zhu Changbai sighed softly and simply said, "Don't say that in front of your grandfather."

The old man is getting on in years; what if he gets upset and something bad happens to him? Then he'll have to work overtime again.

Nobody likes working overtime.

Nan Yannian: "Oh."

Zhu Changbai: ...

……

For Old Master Nan, it was naturally upsetting to see his old friend's reputation ruined in his later years and sent to prison.

This is something you can only work out on your own.

But there are always people who don't want Grandpa Nan to have a peaceful life.

"Is the suspect allowed to meet with outsiders during the trial?"

Zhu Changbai looked at Ji Feng with a puzzled expression.

Ji Feng: "Normally, it wouldn't be possible, but we made an exception. Yang Zhiming asked to see the old man, saying he would only speak after seeing him."

This matter is actually not easy to handle. Putting aside whether it complies with the regulations, is it possible for anyone to meet with Old Master Nan?
Finally, after much searching, the task force found Ji Feng to be the intermediary.

Old Master Nan was dressed in a black Zhongshan suit, with the buttons fastened all the way up. His hair was combed meticulously, and he looked completely different from his haggard appearance during the day. Only the few streaks of bloodshot in his eyes betrayed his true emotions.

After Ji Feng explained his purpose, he remained silent, leaning on his cane, his gaze passing over the crowd and fixed on the osmanthus tree in the middle of the courtyard.

Nan Shu looked at her grandfather.

He recalled his grandfather's expression after hearing from Butler Li that Ji Feng had come to visit.

The setting sun divided the house into light and shadow. Grandpa sat in his armchair, his expression inscrutable.

After a long while, she got up and went back to her room to change into these clothes.

Nan Shu knew that her grandfather wouldn't refuse.

really.

Old Master Nan withdrew his gaze, stood up leaning on his cane, and said to Ji Feng:
"Let's go." (End of Chapter)
