Once upon a time, Lily had been deeply concerned about how Jagoan’s personality, character and life
perspective would take shape as he grew up.
As a mother, she naturally aspired to provide Jagoan with the finest education, a nurturing
environment, and impeccable guidance. However, reality dictated that she could only silently observe
as Jagoan grew up alongside other children in the orphanage. She could only watch in silence as
Jagoan, having graduated from high school, decided to work at a construction site, and she had no
power to intervene.
In those early days, Lily had also fretted about whether the environment would warp Jagoan’s views,
whether he would become overly materialistic, or if he’d become excessively driven by profit.
Fortunately, somewhere between Jagoan’s affluent upbringing as a Young Master and his later life as a
destitute orphan, he seemed to find a balance that aligned with Lily’s own values.
This balance not only allowed him to maintain a healthy perspective on life and a strong sense of
justice but also spared him from the excessively rigid moral standards imposed by his father, Bruce. To
some extent, it mended the gaps in Bruce’s character.
Much like the traditional succession process of the Jagoan family’s patriarchal role, the passing of the
torch should wait until the elder Jagoan Jagoan chose to retire. Then, the elder Jagoan Jagoan would
personally designate the heir. If other children disagreed, they would need to find a way to sway the
elder Jagoan Jagoan’s decision, even if it meant resorting to ruthless measures. Maybe they’d even
plot to eliminate the original heir first and then seize the throne themselves.
Such was the way of today’s wealthy families and the ancient princes and generals, but Jagoan opted
for an entirely different path. He didn’t follow the Jagoan family’s conventional procedures, nor did he
extend any courtesies to them when he claimed his position.
With a casual demeanor in front of the Jagoan family and Wesley Drake, Jagoan declared that he had
taken over the Jagoan family’s affairs and needed more loyal individuals on his side. He made it clear
that if Wesley desired to pledge allegiance, loyalty to him was non-negotiable.
In a single sentence, he not only won over the entire Dragon Temple but also unequivocally stated that
he was the new head of the Jagoan family. He left no room for the Jagoan family to react, deliberate, or
even inform them of his decision personally. He chose to relay the outcome through a third party. This
audacious, uncompromising approach allowed Jagoan to secure the position of Jagoan family head
without opposition. If Jagoan Jagoan resisted, he would have no choice but to step aside and yield to
someone else.
When Jagoan shared this news with Lily, it filled her with excitement to the point of sleeplessness. Lily
had never cared much about the Jagoan family’s modest assets, but the position of Jagoan family head
had always been a thorn in her side.
Everyone knew that her late husband had been the most suitable candidate for this position, yet the
Jagoan family pretended to be oblivious. Even in death, her husband had been denied the chance to
lead the Jagoan family. Lily had long harbored resentment over this matter, and after two decades,
Jagoan had effortlessly unraveled this knot, bringing her immense joy and heightened expectations for
Jagoan’s future.

Meanwhile, in the old Jagoan family residence, after sharing a meal with the elder Jagoan Jagoan,
Jagoan couldn’t contain his eagerness any longer. He addressed the elder Jagoan and Jagoan, saying,
“Grandfather, Butler Thompson, please go ahead and eat. I’d like to visit my parents room.”
Respectfully, Jagoan inquired, “Young Master, what is your purpose? Would you like one of your
attendants to accompany you?”
Jagoan waved his hand dismissively, asserting, “There’s no need. Maria and I will be going to my
parents room. You needn’t worry about us.”
Maria rose from her seat and politely added, “Grandfather Jagoan, Butler Thompson, please enjoy your
meal.”
Maria followed Jagoan as they made their way to the courtyard where Jagoan’s parents had lived. This
courtyard featured four connected rooms for Jagoan’s parents, including a main hall, a bedroom, a
study and Jagoan’s own room. In simpler terms, it was a three-bedroom apartment with a living room.
Jagoan had spent several years in this residence and was quite familiar with its layout. Additionally,
there hadn’t been significant changes since his departure, making it easy for him to identify.
Upon entering the main hall, he couldn’t help but reminisce about the days when he lived here with his
parents. It stirred a whirlwind of emotions within him. Jagoan then proceeded to explore the other
rooms, including the main hall and bedroom. There, he noticed some new bedding and pillows,
indicating a recent update. Consequently, these areas held no potential clues.
Jagoan decided to focus his attention on the study, a room converted from a wing of the courtyard.
Though not expansive, it housed three walls of bookshelves laden with an extensive collection of
books. Even twenty years later, many books on these shelves had been left untouched by Bruce and
Lily, their glasses-wearing owners.
Jagoan took a quick survey and realized that the books could be categorized into three distinct groups.
The first group comprised works on finance and management, primarily written by renowned
economists and financial practitioners. The second group encompassed history and biographies, while
the third group was dedicated to the Book of Changes and Gossip.
During his youth, Jagoan hadn’t been particularly interested in these books, primarily focusing on
history while neglecting the rest. Today, he discovered his parents’ long-standing fascination with Feng
Shui.
Maria also scanned the books, noting, “Young Master, your parents have assembled some of the
world’s finest literature on Feng Shui secrets. Some of these books are centuries old and out of print.
It’s evident they had a deep involvement and research interest in Feng Shui and Changes.”
Jagoan nodded, his thoughts already focused on how to systematically review these books for any
concealed information. As he examined the bookshelf with care, he mentioned to Maria, “With this
many books, sorting through them will take days, at the very least.”
Maria smiled, responding, “Time isn’t an issue. We can sift through them methodically. If it pleases the
Young Master, I’ll assist in cataloging.”
Jagoan agreed, “Let’s start with the books on Changes. Given my parents involvement in Taoism, there
might be notes hidden within them.”
Maria eagerly accepted, inquiring, “Young Master, I want to share this responsibility, but I’d like to know
if you’re comfortable with it.”
Jagoan assured her, “Miss Jagoan, please assist me. If you spot anything unusual, alert me
immediately.”
“Of course,” Maria agreed with enthusiasm.
They resumed their search, one book at a time. However, it wasn’t until they reached a black book,
roughly the size of a standard volume, that Maria’s excitement bubbled to the surface. She flipped it
open and exclaimed, “Young Master, there’s a photo album here!”
