Actually, the most apprehensive person then was none other than Ning Ran.

After all, Nan Zhengde said that he was overjoyed that year because the Nan family had expanded with an additional two members.

It was two, not three.

That was to say; he hadn't regarded her as part of the Nan family thus far.

She wasn't disappointed about that because she wasn't part of the Nan family in the first place.

The outside world loved to say that she was good at climbing into beds, having bedded the right person, and giving birth to children of the Nan family, thus enjoying a higher status thanks to her children.

However, she had never thought of it that way. Never had she felt that she could gain a foothold among the so-called elite classes just because she had given birth to children of the Nan family.

On the contrary, she was worried that she would be dragged into the internal strife of wealthy families for that exact reason.

Her mother's death enlightened her to a truth—having money wasn't necessarily a good thing. The more money one had, the greater the risk one had to shoulder.

That principle had always held true because there were few affluent individuals in this world, with twenty percent of the people in possession of eighty percent of the global wealth.

For that reason, rich people were often the target of attacks, just like her mother.

She often thought that perhaps her mother wouldn't have died so prematurely if she were an ordinary white-collared employee instead of a company owner.

She could have gone to work every day and helped Ning Ran look after her children upon retiring. That would have been a blissful life.

They could have still been happy without so much money.

Alas, Ning Ran no longer had the opportunity to experience that, nor would she ever have it again.

Therefore, her understanding of money was vastly different from many others. She had experienced poverty and realized the importance of money.

The Nan family is their root at the end of the day, and those shares also signify that they're destined to be in the top twenty percent of this society. Some people can't get into those ranks even after toiling for a few generations, but they've been given that privilege for nothing. What right do
