Su Yuchen drove Nangong Ying all the way to the center of the city, where he could see ancient bricks and tiles and lush bamboo forests.

Those who can live next to the ruins of the ancient city of Yujing must be rich or noble. After passing through layers of security checks, the car drove into a small alley.

Opposite the alley is an ordinary three-story brick house, but there are sentries guarding the unmarked door. I heard that this is the leader's office and residence that is not marked on the map.

The old man of the Su family lives in the alley opposite here.

Entering the alley, the car stopped steadily in front of a simple and solemn golden nanmu door. There was a pier stone at the door. The door was supplemented by gold-painted animal-faced tin rings. Even the two lanterns hanging at the door were Extraordinarily sophisticated.

"We're here." Su Yuchen opened the car door and invited Nangong Ying to get out of the car.

After knocking on the door, the butler led him through the cloister to the main house. Standing in the courtyard, he could see the adjacent imperial city wall and its golden bricks and blue tiles.

Imperial power was something Nangong Ying was familiar with, so it wasn't until this moment that she really had a clearer understanding of the names of the five aristocratic families in the capital.

To be able to have such a refined courtyard at the foot of the imperial city must be the accumulation of several generations. In addition to the current financial power, the Fifth Family must have been a glorious and prosperous family in the past.

She suddenly felt a little nervous.

"Xiao Chen is here?" An energetic voice came from the house.

Su Yuchen responded, and just as he was about to go in, the old man came out to greet him in person.

The old man was old but walked very steadily. When he walked to the door, the setting sun just shone on his gray hair. The smile on his face seemed to be warmed by the sun, making people feel that he was not close to him.

He saw Nangong Ying at a glance. He was stunned for a second, then narrowed his eyes and bent slightly, "Nangong... Ying?"

Nangong Ying nodded. Facing such a loving old man, she subconsciously clasped her fists and said, "Yes, Mr. Su."

The greeting that should have been out of place was replaced by Mr. Su's panicked look. His big, warm and dry hands quickly lifted up Nangong Ying's arm, "I can't do it, I can't do it."

The butler took a step back in surprise.

Su Yuchen's eyes flashed with surprise.

Nangong Ying also lowered his eyes thoughtfully.

Mr. Su welcomed Nangong Ying into the house and actually invited her to sit on the main seat. After Nangong Ying refused, he sat with her on both sides. Su Yuchen was sitting below Mr. Su.

Facing Mr. Su's series of actions, Su Yuchen already had an idea in his mind.

It seems that Nangong's surname is not just a so-called treasure. His grandfather has always respected rules and paid attention to the seating arrangements in the house. His attitude towards Nangong Ying is enough to illustrate her status in the Su family.

After some pleasantries, Mr. Su finally chose the affectionate name "nannan" to address Nangong Ying.

"Nanny, I heard from Xiaochen that you can recognize the characters of the Southern Chu Kingdom." Mr. Su did not directly answer the question, but talked about it.

Nangong Ying nodded, "I know some of you."

Mr. Su smiled and took out a bronze-like sign from the wooden box on the table. "Although Old Man Zhang also told me, I can almost confirm that you are the descendant of the Nangong family we are looking for. To be on the safe side, I will This is for you. If you understand the content above, you have found the right person."

Nangong Ying did not reach out to pick it up, but looked at Mr. Su quietly with raised eyebrows. After a long time, he asked, "Fu Nian, the He family, and even the Ye family have all gone through my belongings. They are all looking for a so-called treasure. Maybe that It’s something that truly proves my identity.”

Although she believed in Su Yuchen's good intentions, she still had too many uncertainties about the Su family. Even though Mr. Su treated her with great respect, she still had to ask this question.

Hearing the names of those companies, Mr. Su's eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, and the wrinkles on his face deepened a bit.

He said with great disdain, "What good intentions can those white-eyed wolves have?! Our Su family will always remember our family motto and never be greedy!"

"It's just that if there is anyone in this world who can really understand these words, they must have a lot to do with the Nangong family. You can feel more at ease talking about those things to such a person."

Su Yuchen looked at his grandfather, who was upright and clear, a person he had respected since he was a child.

Without such a person as the head of the Su family, the Su family might become as chaotic and profit-seeking as other families.

The reason why grandpa agreed to meet to resolve the doubts was because he was old and always wanted to tell those things to someone, and he wanted to tell the descendants of Nangong himself.
