Chapter 1
In front of a restaurant, City C.
Walking in the Street, Robin Zhou, who was wearing a yellow delivery uniform and looked indifferent, "Go back to the Zhou's Family?"
"Yes, the old master said that as long as young master goes back, all the trillions of assets of the Zhou's Family will be inherited by you." In front of Robin, an old man in a grey tang robe said respectfully.
"Huh... A trillion assets?" Robin laughed and sighed. "Zhou's Family is really rich."
Seemingly discovering the sarcasm in Robin's words, the old man had to say, "Young master, do you still care about what happened three years ago?"
Robin didn't answer. Ben Zhou, the old man, said bitterly, "Young Master, it's true that what happened three years ago was Master's mistake, but in the past three years, he has paid enough for it. Why don't you give Master a chance?"
"Chance?" A sneer raised at Robin's face. Now, Eric Zhou was asking Robin for a chance, but did Eric give Robin's mother any chance?
Robin would never forget how his mother died in front of him three years ago.
The Zhou's Family had trillions of dollars in assets, but Eric was unwilling to pay a million dollars to treat Robin's mother. Even when Robin was on his knees begging like a dog, Eric didn't move at all, but watched Robin's mother die.
Now, Eric was asking a chance. Humph...
Robin shook his head with great irony.
"Are you willing to be a delivery man for the rest of your life?" Finding that Robin was not moved at all, Ben sighed. Ben knew that in these three years since Robin left Zhou's Family, Robin had lived a very hard life. He had been the son-in-law of Brown's Family, where people all looked down on him. His life was completely different from the one he had lived in the Zhou's Family.
"Delivering food is better than delivering life." Robin jeered.
Ben's face turned pale. "Young master, what do you mean by that?"
"It doesn't mean much." Robin shook his head, "Ben Zhou, you can go back. Tell Eric Zhou that I'll go back to Zhou's Family sooner or later, but not for the trillions of assets!"
Ben was shocked. Looking at Robin's leaving, he looked helpless.
Along the way, Robin's mood was complicated.
From the day he was born, he had been staying in the Zhou's Family. However, because of his status as a bastard, they didn't treat him well. Even the servants could curse and bully him.
Robin had thought he could be a dog in Zhou's Family all his life. It was not until his mother got sick that Robin realized Zhou's Family even didn't give him a chance to be a dog.
That night, Robin's mother was very sick. He knelt in front of the Zhou's Family to beg them to save his mother, but no one helped.
All those people were extremely indifferent.
Eventually, Robin's mother died of illness.
Robin was deeply grieved. At that time, he had begun to knew that the lives of his mother and him were worse than even ants!
On that day, Robin left Zhou's Family.
And on that day.
Robin swore that one day, he would return to Zhou's Family, and use absolute power to force everyone in the Zhou's Family to kneel in repentance at his mother's grave!
But that was just his youthful and foolish thoughts. The next day when he arrived in City C, he was hunted. If John Brown haven't saved him, he would have been invalid
Obviously, the people hunted him was from Zhou's Family.
In front of the giant beast, Zhou's Family, Robin was as small as an ant.
After becoming the son-in-law of Brown's Family, Robin's life returned to peace. Though he was mocked, he was still alive.
But the tree might crave calm, but the wind wouldn't stop. Zhou's family looked for him again.
And they were asking him to return to the family and inherit their assets.
But the third generation of Zhou's Family contained more than 100 men. There was no way an illegitimate could be allowed to inherit the assets.
Obviously, it was a conspiracy.
He used to be as humble as a dog, but now, he was worth trillions.
This conspiracy was too fake!
"Robin!" While Fain was frowning and contemplating, a beautiful woman in a white dress appeared in front of him. Delicate features, a charming figure, and elegance made this woman quite bright.
She was Robin's wife, June Brown.
"June, what happened?"
The smile came out on Robin's face again. No matter what happened, as long as June was here, Robin's mood would be bright again.
But June didn't look well. She glanced at Robin and said coldly, "Come with me to the ancestral shrine. The Ceremony of Ancestor-Worship is going to begin."
"Ancestral Shrine?" Robin was reminded what June had told her last night. There would be an ancestor worship ceremony today, and all of the Brown's Family should go there to worship their ancestors.
But...
Robin looked down at his yellow delivery man's uniform, and was embarrassed. He had just delivered food and talked to Ben for a while, so he hadn't changed clothes yet.
He couldn't wear such inappropriate clothes for such a serious activity.
"June, could you wait for me to go home and change my clothes?" Robin said gingerly.
June looked dissatisfied, "What have you done? Didn't I tell you about this yesterday?"
"I... I forget it." Robin lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.
"Fine, on need. Anyway, no one cares about you anyway. Go on now. Grandpa's waiting for you." June said impatiently. She was more upset with Robin. How could he forget such an important matter?
"Well..." Robin was about to say something, but June turned around and walked away, so he had to follow.
Brown's Family was a reputable local family in City C, whose ancestor was the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. It had been more than two thousand years since the ancestor had established this family.
In recent years, though Brown's Family had declined and lost its former glory, no one dared to look it down.
The Ancestor Worship Ceremony, held every three years, was one of the most critical events.
When Robin arrived with June, there were many people in the Ancestral Shrine.
June took a deep breath and then walked in the Ancestral Shrine. Robin followed, but when he got to the gate, he was stopped by a hand.
"Wait a minute. Robin Zhou, what are you doing here?" With irony on his face, the young man who stopped Robin was Marcy Brown, June's cousin.
"To worship the ancestors." Robin looked at Marcy with confusion. Ancestor worship, where everyone in the Brown's Family was supposed to be. He was adopted as a son-in-law, so he was definitely part of the family.
"Ancestors?" Marcy sneered. "Which ancestor do you worship? Only our Sean family ancestors have anything to do with you?"
The implication was that Robin was an outsider who didn't deserve to enter the Ancestral Shrine.
"Marcy Brown! What do you mean?" June's face turned cold.
Marcy glanced at June and then said carelessly. "Nothing else, but the outsider or the dog are not allowed in.
If the previous words were just irony, the words "outsider" and "dog" were absolutely insulting
Robin didn't care about, for he had been confronted with stronger humiliation before.
But June looked enraged. After all, Robin was her legally husband!
"Robin is my husband, so why do you say he is an outsider?"
"Your husband? Hahaha!" Marcy laughed as if he'd heard a big joke. "June Brown, speak with your conscience. Do you really take this trash as your husband? I know that you two even haven't slept together after three years of marriage!"
Hadn't they had sex in the three-year marriage life?
Many people in Brown's Family here laughed meaningfully, and looked at Robin with full of irony. How cowardly Robin was! Robin had been with beautiful June for three years but there was no sex at all. Was there something wrong with his sexuality?
June's face turned pale. Indeed, she had been married to Robin for three years, but let alone have sex, Robin had never even held her hands. She used to think that very few people knew about this, but now it seemed that everyone in the Brown's Family did.
"June, you go in first. I suddenly remember that I have another order needed to deliver." Robin smile with bitterness. He could face the ridicule of these people, but he didn't want June to get involved.
Looking at Robin's mask of carelessness, June felt her heart grabbed. They had been married for three years. Though she didn't regard Robin as her husband in heart, Robin was quite good for her. No matter it was windy or rainy, Robin would pick up and send her to work. And no matter how much anger she had, Robin would always face her with a smile.
In front of her, this man never got angry, as if he couldn't feel the pain. He would only take care of her with humor.
As time went by, there would always be feelings.
June couldn't help but sob. Why was this happening? Why was Robin so nice to her.
Robin took a deep breath and prepared to leave. He knew that the longer he stood there, the more humiliations he would get.
But when he turned around, a firm voice came from his back. "He enters, I enter!"
As soon as the voice faded, Robin felt his hand being gripped by a soft but rather strong hand.
