"Nice." Madam Nie nodded with satisfaction. "Worriless and Linglong both studied at Scarlet Flames Academy. Studying at Scarlet Flames Academy isn't too connected to your background and status, but if you run into any problems there, just use Worriless' name."
"Sure…" Ye Wanwan nodded with compliance.
It was ten past twelve by the time she left the Nie residence.
Ye Wanwan didn't linger since she planned to go to Rose of Death's base and see how its formation was going.
Rose of Death had been established for a while, and she left its management to Little Lolita and Liuying without much hovering.
The second she stepped through the main gates and left the Nie grounds, Nameless Nie popped up from nowhere.
"Sis…" Nameless Nie called her.
Ye Wanwan halted in her steps and turned around.
Nameless Nie looked a bit disheveled, and his state of mind didn't seem too great.
"What happened?" Ye Wanwan furrowed her brows lightly.
She heard Nameless Nie had an argument with his family.
"Not much… I just had a fight with Dad and Mom," Nameless Nie replied with a sigh.
"What was the reason?" Ye Wanwan asked.
"It's nothing… Just some tiny, trivial matters," Nameless Nie answered.
Since Nameless Nie didn't seem too willing to explain in detail, Ye Wanwan didn't pursue the matter.
Considering Nameless Nie's personality, it would be very difficult to make him loosen his lips unless he wanted to talk.
"Say… After Dad and Mom pa.s.s from this world, who will inherit the Nie family…?"
Ye Wanwan asked with a meaningful look at Nameless Nie.
She absolutely couldn't clearly talk about some matters with Nameless Nie considering his personality, but it wasn't a bad option to go at it in a slightly roundabout way.
Nameless Nie supported his elbow with one hand and rubbed his chin with the other pensively.
A moment later, he asked with displeasure, "Sis, you have an unlucky mouth. Dad and Mom are perfectly fine. Why would they die…"
Ye Wanwan: "…"
The saying "A weak teammate does you more harm than a strong enemy" was right. Having a teammate like Nameless Nie was seriously too harmful.
"I was just making an a.n.a.logy. What are you so aggravated about?" Ye Wanwan glanced at him.
"If it's an a.n.a.logy, then… after Dad and Mom die, the Nie family… I'm the oldest, so of course I'll be the one inheriting it!" Nameless Nie boasted with certainty.
"En…" Ye Wanwan nodded lightly and asked with a smile, "What if you didn't inherit it? Who'd inherit it then?"
"What if I didn't inherit?" Nameless Nie was startled. "Why wouldn't I inherit? Who'd inherit if I didn't inherit? The Nie family has so many riches; who would obtain all the money if not me?"
"Ay…" Ye Wanwan sighed. How did she have a biological brother like this? Did Dad and Mom save all their brains for her…? They should've at least given a little to him…
"Stop spouting nonsense. Who'd inherit it if you didn't inherit it?" Ye Wanwan frowned deeply.
"If I don't inherit the Nie family, then it's definitely my second sister who'd inherit it! If my second sister doesn't inherit, then it can only be Nie Linglong… Oh wait, Nie Linglong doesn't have any blood relations with the Nie family, so she can't inherit it, so it would be Tangtang inheriting it… But wait, Tangtang's still young, so he can't inherit it… Anyway, it has to be my second sister," Nameless Nie provided his a.n.a.lysis of the matter.
"Nice job. So if you keep angering Dad and Mom and go too far and they kick you out of the Nie family, you'd suffer a great loss… The right of inheritance would fall to someone else's hands… Think about it—the Nie family is so rich… All those gold bars, gold bricks… the stacks of money… everything…" Ye Wanwan kept shaking her head lamentably while looking at Nameless Nie.
