Chapter 165

On March 20, the headquarters of the Long family in Country H sat quietly beside Liyang Lake in GJ City. This vast estate was lined with luxurious villas, all of which served as residences for the venerable elders of the Long family. Generally speaking, these elders did not participate in family affairs, preferring to manage their own private businesses. Their children entered politics, the military, or commerce according to personal choice. Aside from those with exceptional business talent who were placed into family enterprises for intensive cultivation, the helm of the Long family was typically inherited by a child of the main branch chosen by consensus among the elders, with the full support of the senior figures. However, on this particular day, a shocking upheaval struck as the elders gathered in the conference hall of the headquarters building.
