"This is a private estate, not a rest stop."

Sun Xiu said coldly, "If you want water, go buy it somewhere else."

Ma Kang glanced at the manor gate, then looked at the people standing in front of him.

"It's just a glass of water."

"Your Sun family can come up with 30 billion yuan in charitable funds, why would you need a little more?"

Shen Jianjun felt a sudden tightness in his chest.

This sentence sounds like a casual remark, but he always felt that it had another meaning.

Just as he was about to offer another word of advice, Sun Xiu turned away impatiently.

"Grandpa, once you've rested enough, please leave quickly."

"The Sun family is receiving important guests today, so please don't just sit at the front door."

After saying that, he coldly looked at the security guards and said, "You don't need to report these kinds of trivial matters to me in the future."

"If you see someone sitting at the door, just tell them to leave."

"We're waiting for top overseas billionaires, not some ordinary old man who got lost while taking a walk and is asking for water!"

Several security guards quickly bowed their heads: "Understood, young master."

Sun Xiu turned and walked into the manor. As he passed Shen Jianjun, he paused slightly.

"Uncle, you even have to repeatedly verify the identity of this kind of person. No wonder you couldn't protect a multi-billion dollar conglomerate."

"If we entrust you with the management of the 30 billion charity fund, it probably won't be long before it's taken away by someone else."

Shen Jianjun's face turned pale and then red.

The wealthy people in the main hall looked down on him, and the Sun family never truly respected him.

Now even a junior can humiliate him at will in front of the security guards.

But he has lost all his businesses and now can only rely on the Sun family for a living.

Faced with Sun Xiu's mockery, he couldn't even utter a single rebuttal.

Sun Xiu ignored him and walked straight into the manor.

Shen Jianjun hesitated for a moment, glanced back at Ma Kang, and finally followed.

Ma Kang sat on the steps and saw everything that had just happened clearly.

Sun Xiu gave orders to the security guards, and Shen Jianjun, feeling humiliated, dared not refute them.

These details reveal that Sun Xiu held a high position among the younger generation of the Sun family.

Such a key figure was unwilling to even offer a glass of water to an ordinary-looking, unfamiliar elderly man.

With 30 billion yuan of charitable funds handed over to this kind of person, how much of it will actually reach impoverished families?

The calmness on Ma Kang's face gradually disappeared.

He stood up, supporting himself on his knees, brushed the dust off his sweatpants, and neither argued nor revealed his identity.

Since the Sun family lacked even the most basic respect and goodwill, there was no need for him to continue his investigation.

Ma Kang slowly walked away along the road he had come from.

Behind him, the security guards did not try to stop him.

One of them even stepped out from behind the gate and impatiently urged, "Don't linger near the manor."

Ma Kang did not turn around.

The Sun family's manor was getting further and further away.

Those few minutes were enough for him to make a decision.

Sun Xiu held a key position in the Sun family, and his character naturally represented the Sun family to a large extent.

If the Sun family is only respectful to the rich and powerful, but refuses to even offer a cup of water to ordinary people, then such a family is not trustworthy.

What they value is not charity, but the benefits that 30 billion yuan can bring.

Ma Kang took out his phone and opened the list of people to be inspected in Longdu.

The Sun family's name was originally at the top of the list, but he deleted it without hesitation.

With 30 billion in his hands, he can ensure that whichever company he chooses to cooperate with will receive the highest level of hospitality.

He had no reason to force the Sun family, much less entrust such a large amount of charitable funds to a group of people of low character.

An hour later, Ma Kang returned to the accompanying vehicle.

The secretary and several bodyguards had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing him walk back alone, the secretary quickly went to greet him: "Mr. Ma, why did you really walk so far?"

"You're getting old, and the mountain road is long; you should at least let me come along."

"Here, have some water first."

The secretary unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it over, her face full of concern.

Ma Kang took the drink, drank a few sips, and got into the car.

Noticing his odd expression, the secretary asked softly, "Did the inspection of the Sun family not go smoothly?"

"It went very smoothly."

Ma Kang put the water aside: "It was only because I went there alone that I saw the true colors of the Sun family."

"They didn't recognize you?"

"no."

"How did the Sun family treat you?"

Ma Kang burst out laughing: "Don't even mention hospitality, they won't even offer a glass of water."

The secretary looked utterly bewildered: "Hasn't the Sun family always publicly claimed to value charity and be happy to help others?"

Anyone can shout slogans.

Ma Kang's tone calmed down: "True character can be seen in how they treat an ordinary person who has no status and no value to them."

"The Sun family has been removed from the list of partners, and there is no need to investigate them further."

The secretary nodded, then immediately pulled out the itinerary: "Which one are we going to next?"

"First, we will visit other entrepreneurs in Longdu."

Ma Kang said, "Continue the assessment according to the original list, no prior notice is needed."

"I'm leaving for Shanghai tomorrow. I've heard that Yu Yehua is very powerful, has been in business for many years, and has always had a good reputation."

"I want to go and see for myself whether he is suitable to manage these 30 billion yuan in charitable funds."

"Understood, I'll adjust my schedule immediately."

The vehicle slowly drove away from Tianshan District.

Meanwhile, inside the Sun family manor.

Sun Xiu remained guarding the entrance.

One hour, two hours, three hours...

However, the extremely wealthy Ma Kang never showed up.

Whenever a vehicle drives up the mountain road, Sun Xiu immediately gets up.

But the people sitting in the car were either Sun's business partners or senior executives who had come to report on their work.

No one is Ma Kang.

Sun Xiu kept checking the time, his anxiety growing.

Grandpa entrusted him with such an important task, which showed his trust in him.

The 30 billion yuan charitable fund is related to the Sun family's reputation and interests for the next few decades.

If his reception went wrong, the rest of the family would never let go of this opportunity to vie for power.

"Why haven't they arrived yet?"

Sun Xiu paced back and forth at the door: "Any news from Mr. Ma?"

The staff member shook their head: "We haven't received a phone call or any notification of a change in itinerary."

"Keep waiting!"

Sun Xiu looked irritably toward the end of the mountain road: "We need to carefully check all the vehicles; we can't miss anyone."

The security guards dared not neglect their duties.

During this time, several elderly people who had been hiking and taking a walk came to rest near the manor.

Remembering Sun Xiu's earlier reprimand, the security guard immediately left his post.

"You can't sit here."

"Leave quickly, don't block the Sun family's guests."

"We need to rest somewhere else!"

The elderly people had no choice but to get up and leave.

Sun Xiu stood inside the gate, growing increasingly anxious as he watched Ma Kang, who had yet to appear.

He was terrified that he would mess up the important task entrusted to him by his grandfather, but he was completely unaware that the ordinary old man he had driven away earlier was Ma Kang.
