Chapter 229 The family fortune is almost completely wiped out



As the sun set, in the afterglow of the sunset, Shen Nanxing drove to a magnificent ancient building built against the mountain.

Most of the vegetation that originally grew in the area has been cleared away, leaving only some flowering trees that were polluted but not mutated to decorate the area.

The flowers are in full bloom right now. When the autumn wind blows, the fallen petals drift down from the branches, like a rain of flowers falling from the sky. It's a beautiful sight.

Xiao Longzhan glanced outside once before looking away with little interest.

Their Azure Dragon clan's residence is far more magnificent and luxurious than this.

Jiang Nian'an pointed to the buildings flashing past the window and asked Shen Nanxing, "Brother Shen, which one is your home?"

"These are all, but the main house is still ahead."

"All of them?"

Jiang Nian'an's eyes widened suddenly as she looked at the endless rows of buildings before her, and a thought flashed through her mind: This incredible wealth!

"Hmm." A gentle smile flickered in Shen Nanxing's eyes as he asked her softly, "Does An'an like it here?"

Jiang Nian'an turned her head and smiled, "I like wherever you are."

She wasn't actually that picky about where she lived; as long as it was clean and comfortable, that was fine.

As they were talking, the car pulled up in front of the main house.

"Second Young Master!"

The person guarding the door spotted Shen Nanxing immediately, and excitement flashed in their eyes.

He told his men to hurry and inform Old Master Shen and the others, while he quickly walked up to them.

"Grandpa Liu!"

Shen Nanxing stopped the car and prepared to open the door and get out.

"Alright, stop fussing!"

Liu Xu pressed down on the car door, his loving gaze sweeping over Shen Nanxing.

After a long pause, he nodded in satisfaction, "Good, good, you haven't lost weight!"

"It's all thanks to An'an."

Shen Nanxing opened the door and got out of the car, followed by Jiang Nian'an and Xiao Longzhan.

He took Jiang Nian'an's hand, and was about to introduce her when he heard Liu Xu looking at Jiang Nian'an with a smile.

"This must be Miss An'an, right?"

"Good, good, good! They're clearly good kids, a perfect match, a perfect match!"

Great! His second young master finally has a wife and is no longer a single dog!

Upon hearing this, Shen Nanxing's tense expression softened noticeably, and he introduced Liu Xu to Jiang Nian'an.

“An’an, this is Grandpa Liu. He is in charge of all the big and small things in the main house. He is Grandpa’s most capable right-hand man and has always treated me like his own grandson.”

"Hello, Grandpa Liu!"

Jiang Nian'an always treated those who were kind to Shen Nanxing with sincerity and respect.

"Why!"

Liu Xu responded and then looked at Xiao Longzhan, who was looking at him with curious eyes.

"This must be Miss An'an's younger brother, Xiao Zhanzhan..."

Liu Xu bent down and patted Xiao Longzhan's head. "What a good boy!"

Unfortunately, this is the second young master's brother-in-law, not his child.

I wish it were the second young master's child~

Liu Xu stroked his half-white beard, feeling somewhat regretful.

"Hello, Grandpa Liu!"

Xiao Longzhan looked obedient and called out in a clear, crisp voice.

"Okay, okay!"

Liu Xu snapped out of his reverie and pulled a delicate and substantial little gold horse from his pocket. "I heard that Xiao Zhanzhan likes gold?"

The two little kids from the Luo family had come before, and he specifically asked them about their hobbies.

Although he held a high position in the Shen family, he could not surpass the gifts that the old man and others gave to the future matriarch.

But giving this little bundle of joy a gift in advance is absolutely no problem.

Wow, what a beautiful little golden horse! I love it!

Thank you, Grandpa Liu! You're so kind, Grandpa Liu! I like you so much!

The moment Xiao Longzhan saw the little golden horse, his eyes lit up with surprise. He quickly took it, touched it lovingly, and then took out two pieces of milk candy from his pocket.

"I'd like to give my favorite food to my beloved Grandpa Liu!"

Xiao Longzhan tilted his head back, holding the little golden horse in one hand and hugging Liu Xu's leg with the other, his eyes sparkling.

This touched Liu Xu deeply. He immediately picked up Xiao Longzhan and whispered in his ear, "You go back with Grandpa. Grandpa has other kinds, I'll give them all to you!"

"real?"

"Really, there's also the little golden ox, the little golden pig... all for Zhanzhan!"

Xiao Longzhan became more and more excited as he listened, his mouth practically stretching to the back of his head in a wide grin.

He wrapped his arms around Liu Xu's neck, nuzzled his face affectionately, and then pulled a snowflake crisp from his pocket. "Give them all to Grandpa!"

Seeing Liu Xu and Xiao Longzhan, who were already as close as grandfather and grandson despite it being their first meeting, Shen Nanxing and Jiang Nian'an fell silent at the same time.

"Grandpa still has a little jade horse. Do you like the little jade horse?"

As Liu Xu ate the snowflake pastry that Xiao Longzhan had personally fed him, he felt a sweet warmth in his heart.

He was unmarried, had no children, let alone grandchildren.

Although the eldest and second young masters always treated him like their own grandfather, how could two grown men compare to the cuteness of a little baby?

Liu Xu looked at Xiao Longzhan with even more affection.

Xiao Longzhan nodded quickly, "I like it, and I also like sparkly gems!"

"Gemstones? Grandpa has some too! Come on, Grandpa will take you to get them!"

Liu Xu was about to carry Xiao Longzhan away.

Looking at Xiao Longzhan, who had easily swindled Liu Xu out of his entire fortune with just a few words, Shen Nanxing and Jiang Nian'an were speechless.

【Little Zhanzhan, don't lie to the elderly!】

Jiang Nian'an, both amused and exasperated, communicated telepathically with Xiao Longzhan.

Sister, I didn't lie to Grandpa Liu, I really like him!

Xiao Longzhan tucked the little golden horse into his arms, turned his head away, deliberately avoiding Jiang Nian'an's gaze, and stopped responding to her.
