Therefore, not only did the Gu family live here, but there were also a few third-tier and second-tier wealthy families. Even the second young master of the Nangong family, Nangong Qin, bought a villa here.
However, as a third-tier wealthy family, the Gu family lived at the foot of this forest park while the young master of a first-tier wealthy family, Nangong Qin, lived at the top of the mountain.
Speaking of the Nangong family, it would not do them justice if they did not mention the outstanding young masters of the Nangong family.
Firstly, the tale must start from Old Master Nangong.
Old Master Nangong’s name was Nangong Renyi, and he followed the previous President’s quest in conquering his land. He had made countless contributions to the military and was now a top admiral in Camino.
He had three sons and a daughter.
The eldest son, Nangong Shu, was currently the commander-in-chief in Emperor District’s military base, an admiral.
The second son, Nangong Qin, was a business genius and was currently the chairman of the largest group in Camino, Imperial Palace Group. Under the company’s name, they managed properties, hotels, entertainment, delicacies, department stores, jewelry, games… The company was so large that it was safe to say that he had dabbled in almost every lucrative industry, and was doing very well in all of them.
The third was Nangong Zhao, the director of the Foreign Affairs Office.
He had three sons—one in the army, one in business, and one in politics. All of them were well-known figures.
Therefore, it was not without reason that the Nangong family had been at the top of the Four Dominant Families for so many years.
However, the Nangong family also had something that made every man’s heart ache.
The little princess of the Nangong family, Nangong Yu, went missing.
She went missing 18 years ago.
The Nangong family suffered a huge change, and the matriarch of the Nangong family passed away in a fit of anger. Nangong Renyi lost his daughter and his wife. He also walked through the gates of hell once, and from then on, his health had been deteriorating.
The people from the Nangong family would be vegetarian on the first and fifteenth days of every year. They even shouldered the responsibilities of maintaining the various monasteries around Emperor District all year round. They only hoped that by doing these things, their family members who were still alive would suffer less.
The Nangong family’s daughter was very, very precious.
This was because since Old Master Nangong’s generation, they had always had many brothers and not a single girl.
At long last, when they had finally produced a daughter, they lost her.
Hence, he had been hoping that his three rascals would give him a granddaughter.
It turned out that…
The eldest, Nangong Shu, had two sons—his eldest grandson, Nangong Jin, and his second grandson, Nangong Li.
Right now, his eldest grandson, Nangong Jin[1], was in the military base. He was well-known as the commander of the special forces team in Emperor District; a major general.
His second grandson, Nangong Li, was originally in the Ministry of Public Security. Now, he was working in the South City police station as the deputy station chief.
When Nangong Renyi’s eldest son gave birth to two sons and decided to stop having children, the old master placed his hopes on the second son, hoping that his second son would give birth to a granddaughter for him.
After praying to the moon and stars, the old master finally heard something from Nangong Qin when his second grandson, Nangong Li, was two years old.
However, in these four years of hearing cries from the delivery room twice, Nangong Renyi’s second son, Nangong Qin, still gave birth to two sons—his third grandson, Nangong Yun, and his fourth grandson, Nangong Zheng.
These two grandsons had perfectly inherited their father’s mantle. At the age of three, they displayed astonishing talent in doing business, much like Nangong Qin. The old master was very gratified to know that.
Since both the eldest and second eldest children had stopped giving birth to more children, the Old Master began to exert pressure on his third son, Nangong Zhao, who claimed not to marry.
Under his father’s tyranny, Nangong Zhao eventually established his own household too. He listened to his father and had children.
