Chapter 171 Family News



Ningyu Garden, bedroom.

To be honest, Zhang Ningxi is a bad player but also loves to play. He is the type who keeps fighting and keeps failing. He just never admits defeat.

This is another case of her taking the initiative to flirt with her boss Mingyu.

What else is there to say? Let’s fight!

Sikong Zhen’s choice towards Yang Yuhuan at the beginning can foresee what the ending will be.

In the early stages, both sides tried to explore each other and make some moves, but gradually they lost patience.

Zhang Ningxi immediately flashed to Si Mingyu's side, then cut through the formation with a stunning move. He had the momentum to take the lead, but as a support, getting in close combat with a warrior would be a recipe for disaster.

What else was there to say? Si Mingyu immediately unleashed a Thunderbolt followed by a series of normal attacks, triggering the effect of Thunder Attraction. Even the auxiliary's health couldn't withstand the onslaught, and one set wiped out a third of his health. And Zhang Ningxi's meager attack power had no effect on him.

Zhang Ningxi quickly activated the Huxuanle skill to shake off the opponent, and then used healing magic to recover blood.

This must be pursued while the momentum is strong. Si Mingyu flashed and appeared behind her, then went berserk and cast a thunderbolt to deal a lot of damage.

At this point, Zhang Ningxi panicked and used her "Nichangqu" skill to engage Si Mingyu. This was a common mistake made by novices: since they couldn't escape, they'd just fight to the death and see who fell first.

But the problem is that Si Mingyu has the Golden Holy Sword and the Scholar's Wrath, while Zhang Ningxi only has the Mask of Pain. Their health, skills, and equipment are not on the same level, so the result can be imagined.

Finally, Si Mingyu transformed into Thunder and interrupted Zhang Ningxi's Song of Everlasting Sorrow, then sent her away with one blow.

Zhang Ningxi, having died once, took a long time to resurrect. She was relying on skill to win the second time around, which was like showing off one's proficiency before an expert. Furthermore, Si Mingyu was far superior to her in level, and all his skills were on cooldown. Once he caught her, he'd just use his frenzied, continuous skill output to take her down in one blow.

Zhang Ningxi, who had died twice, lay down directly. You can do whatever you want. I will never resist if you push me with the fountain.

Si Mingyu was upset now. You said you wanted to play King of Glory, but you stopped playing before I even finished a game just when I was getting interested. Even though I'm a novice, I should have some game spirit.

What gaming spirit? No, Zhang Ningxi just wants to sleep now.

"Honey, I can't take it anymore. I don't want to play anymore. You can find someone else to play with." She closed her eyes and began to talk nonsense unconsciously.

"ε=(′ο`*))) Alas!" What else can I do with my wife? I have to pamper her. Besides, at this time, who can I really call her to continue having fun?

.

The next day, Jiang Xueyi called and said that the board of directors had finished their study and someone from Hong Kong would contact him.

"Hong Kong?" Si Mingyu was confused.

"Yes, in Hong Kong." Jiang Xueyi said again with certainty.

"What exactly is the situation?" Si Mingyu had to be mentally prepared first.

"Let me ask you something. Do you know anything about your grandparents?"

"Of course I know. I vaguely remember that my parents took me to Shanghai by plane to visit my grandparents several times when I was a child, but I was too young at that time to remember their address. My parents haven't brought me to Shanghai again in the past ten years, but we have never stopped video chatting and calling each other." Si Mingyu answered truthfully.

"How old were your parents when they had you?"

"My father was 25 and my mother was 23 at the time."

"Based on your father's age, your grandparents are probably in their seventies, right? How are they doing now?"

"Grandpa passed away due to illness a long time ago, and grandma no longer lives in Shanghai. She wouldn't tell me where she is, and my parents wouldn't tell me either when I asked them. Later, when I sorted through their belongings, I couldn't find any relevant information. Sister Xueyi, are you bringing this up today because of any news about my grandma?" Si Mingyu felt that there must be a reason why she brought this up.

"Well, there is news. The details are as follows..." Jiang Xueyi told Si Mingyu the whole story.

Si Mingyu's great-grandfather was a big businessman in Shanghai before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and later moved to Hong Kong.

My grandparents met when they were studying abroad. After graduation, my grandmother followed my grandfather back to Shanghai.

After all, my grandfather had studied abroad and was a rare talent at that time. After devoting himself to the construction of his hometown, he gradually became a cadre of a certain level. My great-grandfather often asked people to bring money and things to my grandmother, so it is said that my father's family life was superior.

This is also the reason why Gu Shuanghui was able to borrow money from Si Mingyu's father to invest in Penguin, because he is really rich.

Later, after graduating from Jiaotong University, Si Mingyu's father signed up to go to the Northwest, where he stayed for more than ten years under an assumed name and even got married and had children.

Although my parents have returned to Shanghai to visit their parents before, they haven't done so for several years due to work reasons. They do contact me more frequently by phone.

The matter of my father has always been a concern for my grandparents. My grandmother complained about why my grandfather encouraged my father to go to the northwest, so that the family could not see each other for several years and could only video chat and make phone calls.

Grandma insisted that Dad return to Shanghai, but Grandpa refused to agree, and the two had a falling out over this.

In addition, my great-grandfather was old and someone needed to take charge of the family business, so my grandmother had no choice but to return to Hong Kong.

Grandpa passed away due to illness less than a year after grandma passed away.

"Sister Xueyi, where is my grandma?" Si Mingyu asked.

"She passed away from excessive grief a few days after learning of your parents' death."

"I don't understand why grandma hid what happened in Hong Kong from me. Is there some secret?" Si Mingyu really couldn't figure it out.

"What do you think?" Jiang Xueyi asked back.

"Sister Xueyi, how much of what you told me is true?" Si Mingyu wondered if this was another arrangement by the company?

"What I tell you is true. No matter who checks it or how they check it, it is true."

"Sister Xueyi, what is the matter that Hong Kong is contacting me about?" After going around in circles, he finally got to the point.

"According to the old man's will, all the properties are entrusted to a trust company. They will be transferred to you when you are twenty-one years old. You are the only heir." Jiang Xueyi said.

"How could it be me? People of my great-grandfather's generation shouldn't have had only my grandmother as a child, right?" Si Mingyu asked.

"Indeed, there was more than one. Your great-grandfather had four children. The eldest died in a business competition, the second was in an accident while driving under the influence, and the fourth became a cripple due to drug use."

"I understand." He really didn't know what to say in this situation. After all, Hong Kong was indeed very chaotic in the early days, as can be seen from the movies.

"That's probably the situation. Don't worry about the trust company, they will be fine. But the inheritance left by your great-grandfather is not small, so you may have to solve some small problems by yourself when the time comes." Jiang Xueyi reminded.
