"Second Great Uncle!" Ye Wanwan politely greeted him.
This elderly man, who resembled Grandpa roughly 30% to 40%, was Grandpa's biological younger brother.
Sitting down, the elderly man with white hair and a ruddy complexion solemnly said, "Back then, Eldest Brother stubbornly took you away with him. It hasn't been easy for you outside all these years, but it's good that you're back. It's time for you to shoulder this burden …"
Back then, the previous patriarch of the Nie family, who was also Ye Wanwan's grandfather, left the Nie family because he was displeased with his daughter marrying a descendant of the archenemy, the Ling family. This was a taboo in the Nie family, so the elderly man merely looked despondent and didn't mention it further. He merely gave Ye Wanwan a few words of encouragement.
"It's good that Second Miss can return safely. I believe the Nie family will definitely prosper under Second Miss's leadership," another higher-up hastily echoed.
The family meeting ended quickly. Patriarch Nie arranged everything and left Yun City with Madam Nie two days later, heading to Jin City.
After Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie left, Ye Wanwan took advantage of her parents' absence to directly send Tangtang to Si Yehan's place. She told Si Yehan to take Tangtang on a one-on-one vacation for a few days. This was the fastest way to deepen their relationship.
Then Ye Wanwan started to focus on learning how to manage the family's affairs from her granduncles and elders.
Thankfully, she learned from Si Yehan for a long time in China and had experience with these things, so it went relatively smoothly.
As for Nie Linglong, she planned to continue thinking of ways to investigate the power behind her.
…
Late at night, inside a hidden manor in the suburbs:
An elderly man in black walked out of a secret room and darkly looked at Nie Linglong, who was playing chess on the sofa. "How's the progress at the Nie family?"
Nie Linglong's face was filled with confidence. "Everything is under my control."
The elderly man in black snorted. "I don't think that's the case, right? The real Worriless Nie has returned to the Nie family and is rather trusted. She's even the acting patriarch now. "
Nie Linglong was disdainful. "You think too highly of her. She's merely a piece of trash. From what I know, Worriless Nie's martial strength has greatly declined and isn't even 30% or 40% of what it used to be."
The black-clothed old man was startled when he heard this. "Really?"
In the Independent State, which prohibited firearms, martial prowess reigned supreme, and martial strength represented everything.
An existence like Piece of Sh * t alone was like a killing machine that could destroy more than half of their experts. No one dared to provoke such an existence.
If Worriless Nie's martial prowess really declined, she probably wouldn't even have the right to be the head of the Nie family.
The Independent State revered martial prowess, and the Nie family of the four great clans was even more so. The Nie family had the strongest martial prowess among all the clans, and the former patriarch of the Nie family was once the top expert in the Independent State, so martial prowess was crucial to a patriarch.
Nie Linglong gently placed down a black piece and ate all the white pieces. The corners of her mouth slowly curled up. "Don't worry, the position of Nie family head will definitely be mine."
Since the imposter was dead, there was no need to go through so much trouble. She would take the position herself!
"It better be so."
…
A few days later, Ye Wanwan followed a group of family elders and higher-ups to inspect a certain property of the Nie family.
Nie Linglong was also in the same car and dutifully took on the role of secretary, reporting work to Ye Wanwan. She was rather well-behaved these past few days, so Ye Wanwan couldn't find any evidence against her.
