From Sidekick to Bigshot

Qin Chuan tiredly laid down on his bed. When he closed his eyes, memories once again began to surface.

"Qin Chuan, how is Mo Shiyun better than me?"

"Qin Chuan, I was the one who met you first! Why exactly am I not good enough?"

"Qin Chuan, I'm telling you that I like you! Don't hide from me! You can't drive me away like that!"

In his memories, her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

She told him that she was only willing to listen to his words during that period of time.

She said that it was because he told her that she was a good girl. It was because she got told that if she learned to control her temper, she would be more liked by everyone around her.

However, he told her that he didn't like her. He also asked her to stop doing things that didn't make sense. Things that would hurt not only others but herself as well.

But this time around, she refused to listen to him. She began to act more aggressively and crazily.

Back then, Qin Chuan thought she was just being unreasonable.

That was until he became the one who loved someone but could not be with them. He now understood her obsession and her unwillingness to give up.

She was stubborn because she loved him.

She was unwilling to give up because she loved him.

He never experienced these emotions and feelings before because, in the past, everything went very smoothly.

Even though he was an illegitimate child, he was able to resolve all the so-called difficulties he encountered afterward.

And his romantic relationship was even simpler. After all, the person he liked also liked him.

Back then, they cherished and trusted one another, grew to become a better person together, and protected each other from any harm.

It was a simple and loving relationship.

A few days later, everything belonging to the Zhai family was auctioned off.

A mysterious buyer from Country Y purchased everything that belonged to the Zhai family.

The Zhai family mansion alone was worth billions of dollars. Along with the furnishing and antiques, an average person would not be able to purchase everything.

And thus, everyone was curious about which tycoon had bagged all these items from the Zhai family.

Despite waiting a long time, the buyer did not show up.

It appeared as though some rich people liked to be low-key.

Master Zhai was playing chess with Grandpa Jian.

Grandpa Jian commented: "Do you not have anything better to do? So many things are happening around you and yet, you choose to play chess with me every day to relieve boredom."

Even if Grandpa Jian was worried, he could do nothing. After all, he had given all major power in the Jian family to Jian Yuncheng.

"What is the big deal?" Master Zhai asked. "Yiling disappearing two years ago was the big deal! Nothing can be compared to the shock I felt back then!"

At that time, the entirety of the Zha family felt like the sky was falling down.

"Even if that's the case, you don't have to play chess with me every day right?" Grandpa Jian said in a good-natured way.

"Brother Jian, my home is being auctioned off. There is no place for me to go. Where else can I do if I don't come to play chess with you?" Master Zhai commented sadly.

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Jian realized this was the truth.

Everyone in Beijing was eager to clear their ties with the Zhai family.

"Well, is there anything we can help with?"

"Brother Jian, don't worry about this. Families rise and fall and dynasties come and go. This is normal. You just have to get used to it," Master Zha replied with a relaxed expression on his face.
