Logically speaking, two people who have never met before should be a little reserved when they meet for the first time, even if they are related by blood.

However, during Su Wanwan's first meeting with the Su family in Hong Kong, both sides acted exceptionally warmly and harmoniously, which made people feel that it was somewhat deliberate.

Everything seemed to be going incredibly smoothly. After a sumptuous and luxurious family dinner, Grandpa Su and Grandma Su warmly invited Su Wanwan to stay longer.

According to Su Wanwan, she has just returned and is currently looking for a suitable property.

The old man of the Su family immediately smiled and said:

"Qing'er, you don't need to worry about where you'll stay. Our Su family is so big, surely there's a place suitable for you to stay?"

"It just so happens that your grandfather's old house is still there. I've been taking good care of it, just in preparation for the day you'll come back. Why don't you go and take a look first? If you think it's suitable, you can stay there. If you don't like it, we can find another place later."

Su Wanwan became interested when she heard that it was the former residence of her nominal grandfather.

After all, she had a suspicion that those mysterious organizations might want her to find something, which might be related to this cheap grandfather.

So, she agreed without hesitation:

"Thank you, Grandpa. There's no need to go to the trouble of looking elsewhere. My grandfather's old house is just fine!"

"Grandpa, you are so thoughtful. I often hear Grandpa say that he misses everything about the port city. It's a good opportunity for me to experience the place where Grandpa used to live."

As people age, they tend to become nostalgic. Hearing this, Grandpa Su couldn't help but recall the little things he had done with his brothers. Seeing his grandniece's extraordinary temperament, quiet elegance, and well-behaved and sensible demeanor, he realized she was truly a wonderful girl. He felt exceptionally gratified.

The Su family in Hong Kong did indeed have some schemes, but when Old Master Su thought of his younger brother who had been missing for so many years, and now that he had not only reconnected with him but also met his brother's descendants, he couldn't help but feel a touch of tenderness at having something lost and found again.

Therefore, he became even more kind and approachable to Su Wanwan. Then, after a moment's thought, Old Master Su said directly to Su Wanwan:

“Qing’er, it’s like this. Your grandfather mentioned in his letter that he had dividend shares in our Su family back then. Over the years, these dividends have been in his existing account, and I have never touched them. Although he said he didn’t want them anymore, I can’t refuse to give them to him.”

"Now that you're here, you're his representative. I'll have someone sort out these dividends and some of your grandfather's old belongings and send them to you in the next couple of days."

“You’ve just come back and need to buy a lot of things, so it must be quite expensive. These can be used as pocket money.”

Upon hearing this, Su Wanwan couldn't help but prick up her ears. She had a vague feeling that these things might be closely related to her future mission.

Su Wanwan used to have two great advantages: one was spatial ability, and the other was her extremely strong predictive and perceptive abilities. She could even dream of future scenarios and make some prophetic predictions based on them.

However, for some reason, these prophetic dreams have become much less frequent lately, as if an invisible hand has gripped her lifeline, making her often feel suffocated and unable to breathe.

However, after arriving in the port city, this feeling seemed to lessen considerably. She was secretly delighted, wondering if things would truly go smoothly from now on, and she could rise again.

Grandpa Su immediately gave her a surprise. This strong premonition made her feel that these things were of great importance to her and that she had to get her hands on them!

However, being a seasoned actress and a master of drama, Su Wanwan restrained herself from immediately showing her emotions and simply replied with a smile:

“Grandpa, you are so thoughtful! My grandfather told me that I don’t need to worry about anything when I come to the port city. Grandpa is a kind and compassionate person and will definitely take good care of me. Today I have seen that it is true.”

"With her great-grandfather as her backing, Qing'er will truly have a pillar of support in Hong Kong from now on..."

Hearing Su Wanwan say that, Old Master Su laughed heartily:

"Haha, Qing'er knows how to talk. She's much more pleasant than my brats."

For a time, both sides enjoyed themselves immensely, with laughter and cheerful conversation filling the air.

Luo Zixi, through her pet's perspective, instantly grasped the crux of the problem!

Dividends! And some old items!

Luo Zixi immediately set her sights on these two items. She wasn't very interested in the dividends, but she was very interested in the old objects.

After all, old objects are full of mysterious and unknown energy, and Luo Zixi can also let the system absorb some special energy after she gets her hands on them!

As soon as the banquet at the Su family's house ended, Old Master Su summoned his three sons to gather in the study of the Su family mansion.

"Let's all share our opinions on Su Qing'er."

Grandpa Su took a sip of tea, waiting for his sons to express their opinions.

His son will eventually take over everything in the Su family, and the Su family is currently at a critical juncture, urgently needing additional funds.

Success would take them a step further, but failure would likely remove them from the list of prominent families in Hong Kong.

"Dad, if you ask me, you shouldn't have given her that dividend. It's a considerable sum, and we're currently short of money. Second Master already said he didn't want it, so why should we rush to give it away?"

The third son, Su Dingguo, immediately started complaining about his father. Hearing his words, Old Master Su almost couldn't help but throw his teacup at his face.

This kid is such a grown man, yet he does nothing productive all day long, just eating, drinking, having fun, and chasing after female celebrities. He has none of the demeanor and refinement of a young master.
