Chapter 227 Silent
Nan Yujin's story is not as boring and lengthy as he claims. This honest middle-aged man actually speaks very well and concisely.
Nan Wuyou's situation is quite subtle. Although she is the daughter of the patriarch Nan Heli, she is actually isolated and helpless in the family.
The root of the matter is back to Nan Heli's ancestors. In order to compete for family power, they launched an extremely cruel struggle, not only defeating the enemy, but also defeating a large number of their own people, and there are no exceptions to their brothers and sisters.
The one who finally got to power was a lonely man.
The advantage of doing this is that after taking office, there are almost no competitors around who can threaten the status of the ruler. The disadvantage is that once the leader has a problem, the entire faction will disappear immediately.
In the generation of Nan Heli, the situation improved slightly. Their brothers had three. Although their relationship was not particularly harmonious, they were brothers who belonged to the same faction and could usually greet each other with a smile. Moreover, Nan Heli also had a very outstanding heir. Next, as long as the other two brothers left behind blood descendants, the once thin faction could grow and grow.
However, after Nan Heli and Nan Qianyu died one after another, and Nan Yujin himself was unable to return to the Qianxing system as soon as possible. The situation became very complicated and subtle. The Nan family members who had a grudge against Nan Heli immediately started to erode Nan Heli's legacy. When Nan Yujin finally arrived late, there was not much left for them.
For Nan Wuyou, what she saw was that the inheritance left by her father was ruthlessly plundered by the greedy family relatives. As the Nan family, they even didn't care about the bizarre truth of Nan Heli's death, as if he left a large amount of inheritance for division after his death, which was actually a good thing!
The impact of this scene on her was self-evident. Although Nan Wuyou didn't say it, the anger and panic in her heart were accumulating rapidly. And these emotions became increasingly difficult to control with Nan Yujin's return.
Because Nan Yujin showed her hope for revenge.
If she was alone, no matter how great the grievances were, she could only endure them. As the heir trained by Nan Heli, Nan Wuyou had at least basic judgment.
However, after Nan Yujin returned, she helped Nan Wuyou quickly recover some of her vitality. In addition to being able to attend the board of directors, she also relied on Chen Yao to gain dominance in the space city, which was a decisive change for a princess in distress.
With a prosperous trading city as her confidence, Nan Wuyou even considered applying for membership of the board of directors directly, and then constrained the family's internal affairs in the name of the board of directors. Considering that the family meeting was about to be held, she thought of making a slight adjustment to the steps, constrained the inside with a strong attitude, and then using the family as a helping to restore her own board seat.
This pioneering and enterprising spirit comes from past history - Nan Heli's ancestors won the power of the family through this extreme adventurous spirit.
Another part comes from her rekindled and expanded anger after her strength expanded.

"And I can't persuade her about this." Nan Yujin said, "My position is actually more subtle than anyone else, because after Nan Heli's death, I was the biggest beneficiary on the surface, so many people think that Nan Wuyou is just a puppet pushed to the front of the stage by me. So anyone can advise her not to make a rash move. I can't wash away some things if I say them."
Sean nodded in understanding, and then asked, "So you need me to help you control Namoyou? What is the benefit of this? If Namoyou makes a rash effort and leads to failure, you will still be the biggest beneficiary."
"Ha, you are really outspoken. That's right, in the eyes of many people, my relationship with Nan Wuyou should be so incompatible, but in fact, if Nan Wuyou falls down, I will become the only seedling of this lineage. I don't have the ability of my ancestors and can rely on my own strength to intimidate the entire Nan family. More importantly, I lack the orthodoxy of inheriting the family."
Sean asked: "What is orthodoxy?"
"It is people's recognition of a thing that is conventional, or the values of the family elders. For example, Nam Wuyou is Nan Heli's daughter, so for the Elders' Council, she is naturally the heir of the family. Of course, orthodoxy does not equal necessity, and there are many reasons to hinder her from becoming a heir."
"For example, she is too young and has insufficient prestige and means; for example, the cause of Nan Heli's death is a mystery, allowing this lineage to continue to take power may be unfavorable to the family. But these reasons are just excuses to refute orthodoxy. Without these excuses, Nan Wuyou will naturally take over the power. This is like a simple law of physics. Without external interference, objects will continue to move in the original direction."
Sean nodded again to express his understanding.
Nan Yujin said: "However, I don't have this orthodox nature. When competing with my elder brother, I was willing to give up the disadvantage. At that time, I would have the label of a loser, and people with this label cannot enjoy orthodox nature. So if Nan Wuyou fell, the result would only be that our lineage was quickly abandoned by the family and completely reduced to the dust of history."
Sean asked, “That’s why you want to support Na Wuyou behind your back?”
"Yes, I not only have to support her, but also have to support her with all my strength, because now none of us can afford to lose."
"The reason is very good, so why don't you say these words to her?"
"Because of these purely utilitarian reasons and the personalities I had previously managed, I was completely dissatisfied with my family relationship, and I could no longer intensify the distrust between us." Nan Yujin smiled bitterly, "It is true that I admire Wuyou's prudence and even suspicion, because people who do not have this quality are not worthy of becoming leaders. But being cautious and suspicious must be maintained within a certain range, and I am almost crossing that line now."
"Crossing that line? What did you do?"
Nan Yujin said: "After returning, he found Wuyou as soon as possible. He used emotional cards and character cards to force him, who was isolated and helpless, to accept me as a temporary ally. Then he took her to the sky to meet with the veteran council members of the four major families, and obtained her qualification for the board meeting. Then he helped her collect some of the resources of Nanming Capital, and then took her to [Leave] and recovered Chen Yao."
"It sounds like you've done enough for her, and her recovery now relies almost entirely on your strength. Even if your help is utilitarian, she has no reason to over-doubt you."
"The opposite." Nan Yujin sighed, "The more I do, the more she will doubt me, because there is a very simple truth here. What I can give her can naturally take away. Everything she has so far does not belong to her. This sense of crisis will aggravate her suspicion, suspecting that everything I do is just to use her orthodoxy, and doubt that I will take away everything she has after she has fully utilized her value."
Sean frowned: "Your words are actually showing your own suspicion. You suspect that Nan Wuyou does not trust you."
"Yes, I am also a suspicious person. After all, I was born in the Nan family and was trained as a successor when I was a child - although I gave up halfway. I was able to help Wuyou without reservation because I didn't need to care too much about her suspicion. She is weak and she is not qualified to influence the overall situation. But now it's different. Wuyou's growth is very fast. In [Leave], she regained Chen Yao by her own ability. Although she can't be called full, I can no longer bear the price of falling out with her."
After saying that, Nan Yujin sighed again: "Anyway, my story ends here, I'm going to ask you next."
"I see."
Sean was not in a hurry to agree or refuse. After all, Nan Yujin's story is just a story, and every word is difficult to tell the truth. He didn't even believe Li Yu and Nan Wuyou, so how could he blindly believe Nan Yujin?
So, after the communication was completed, Sean directly found the parties involved to verify.
In the small conference room of the Silver, the Jedi apprentice sat opposite Nan Wuyou and told the story. Li Yu stood by with his arms in his arms, listening silently.
