Mrs. Xia responded silently, holding the photo in her hands and sitting quietly...

She couldn't imagine that Ye Hao, who usually greeted her with a smile, was the greatest terrorist in the world, and also the terrorist whom everyone in Huaxia admired. There's even a song sung about him in Huaxia neighborhoods.

His brothers brave enough to fight from all directions,

His unparalleled cleverness deceiving the heavens and crossing the seas.

The sun rises in the east, blowing up the Philippines' Four Seas Navy,

Deceiving the heavens and crossing the seas, obliterating thousands in the United States.

This ballad expressed their admiration and respect for Ye Hao, stepping up boldly when no national leader dared to act with strength.

His actions shocked the world, yet he could deceive them all, eluding anyone's attention and focus. Who could compare with his intelligence and wisdom? He had a group of fearless, formidable brothers unafraid of being targeted by other countries, how could his life ever be lonely?

Mrs. Xia said of such a man that he was lazy and idle, only using the family's resources, but she felt ashamed.

She deeply regretted her words and actions, her indifference towards Ye Hao, and her ignorance.

"So why doesn't he speak?" After a long silence, Mrs. Xia finally asked, her voice filled with guilt and admiration for her daughter.

She realized her daughter had truly grown up, understood how to judge a man, unlike herself, who spent a lifetime worrying about others without knowing where her real concerns should lie, just like her son Xia Liu reprimanding her, saying her eyesight was truly blind...

"Knowing is danger multiplied, he isn't alone, he has his brothers. He couldn't tell you of his reckless deeds because of your indifference, nor could he boast about such exploits. He is mature and filled with remorse for me, but I've never blamed him. Loving such a man means accepting everything about him. Mom! He isn't as worthless as you said." Xia Zhu's tears fell as she defended Ye Hao for the first time with true earnestness.

She just hoped her mother wouldn't keep worrying blindly like before and end up harming those who truly needed care.

Mrs. Xia remained silent again, taking a long time before she stood up with difficulty, gently hugging Xia Zhu. "Invite him over next time, I want to apologize to him."

With that, Mrs. Xia retreated to her room, her silhouette looking somewhat dejected, perhaps realizing her mistakes at last!

Hearing her mother's words, Xia Zhu immediately called Ye Hao, but Ye Hao was unavailable at the moment.

Ye Hao was currently in the underground room of the villa, with Lv Dong bringing a large bag of items.

The items were what Lv Dong obtained at Times Square at noon, also what Zheng Guang referred to as the Jade Seal.

"How's it? Was it discovered?" Ye Hao looked at Lv Dong and asked.

"Boss, rest assured, no one discovered it." Lv Dong smiled, then opened the briefcase in his hand.

Once opened, it revealed some confidential information from the Zheng Family, but such information didn't affect Ye Hao at all, so he placed it aside directly.

His gaze fixed on the small wooden box on the table.

"Have you looked inside?" Ye Hao asked with a smile.

"I have, it's something that seems like it belonged to an ancient emperor." Lv Dong replied.

"That's correct, it's the Jade Seal." Ye Hao laughed, then stepped forward to open the small wooden box.

Once the box was opened, a soft light emanated from it, a warm yellow glow, with Ye Hao's gaze quietly fixated on the Jade Seal sitting inside.

The Jade Seal had five coiling dragons above, with a hexagonal cushion below.

The Jade Seal was yellow, fully yellow, with minuscule patterns inside. These patterns were the jade quality, yet seemed not to be jade quality, giving Ye Hao quite a puzzling sensation.

Ye Hao picked up the Jade Seal and looked at the bottom, finding four engraved Chinese characters.

"Great Ming Dynasty"

These four characters were written with an old style, orderly, grand, and magnificent.

However, the Ming character seemed to be embedded, not originally part of the Jade Seal, which puzzled Ye Hao. Could this Jade Seal be defective? Or did a past carving master ruin the Ming character and thus embed another jade stone to replace it?

"Dong, take a look at the Ming character, is there something different about it?" Ye Hao handed the Jade Seal to Lv Dong to examine.

Lv Dong received the Jade Seal and looked repeatedly, failing to identify any differences. Mystified, he asked, "Boss, there's nothing wrong, is there? Once red ink is applied, shouldn't it'll clearly reveal the Great Ming Dynasty characters?"

"I don't think it's that simple!" Ye Hao frowned. He suspected it wasn't a Ming Dynasty jade seal.

Ye Hao thought this Jade Seal must have been carved long ago, gradually polished by years of contact.

Matching with the differing Ming character, Ye Hao speculated it was definitely not from the Ming Dynasty, maybe from an earlier imperial era, passed down generations, eventually abandoned, then altered by Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty.

Ye Hao mused quietly about which dynasty originally crafted this Jade Seal.

After pondering for a long time without reaching a conclusion, Ye Hao could only resignedly have Lv Dong return the secret documents to Zheng Guang, while keeping the Jade Seal.

Ye Hao planned to further investigate the Jade Seal's secrets in due time.

Time swiftly passed by two days, and Ye Hao hadn't attended classes; instead, he was intensifying his training within the system, reminded by Zhang Ruochen's master about needing to reach the eighth rank in National Martial Arts by year's end.

Otherwise, Wudang's younger generation might fall behind others!

The weekend arrived as scheduled, and Ye Hao paused his training.

The weekend was sunny and warm, a perfect day for shopping.

But it was also a critically visible moment for Wealth Island.

Wealth Island's security forces were dispatched by Qin Xiweng, with Li Yi, the general commander, directing protection measures onsite, preventing ill-intentioned individuals from causing trouble.

Qin Xiweng also invited various domestic affluent friends to witness the birth of Wealth Island.

The Ji Family had arrived two days prior, and Su Jinlian also attended promptly.

The Xue Family, Lu Family, Zhuo Family, Lin Family, Tan Family, Xiao Jiu, Dongfang Jiajia, along with several top executives from large corporations, all appeared at the Wealth Island inauguration.

They were present due to witnessing the potential of Wealth Island; if Wealth Island lacked potential, those executives wouldn't easily appear at such venues.

Additionally, they attended because Lin Tian had personally arrived, prompting them to personally attend rather than just sending representatives.

Lin Tian remained low-key, not flaunting his international wealthy status, knowing today's focus belonged to Ye Hao; he refrained from stealing the spotlight.

Lin Ruyu and Su Qing each held Ye Hao's hands as they arrived, but their presence didn't attract attention.

Because everyone's focus was on Qin Xiweng standing on the high platform...(to be continued.
