A forger was held down by two bald men and dragged in front of Fang Zhiyi, who looked him up and down with great interest.
"Your craftsmanship is pretty good, huh?"
The forger looked like he was about to cry.
"I'll give you a chance. Make a few for me to play around with." Fang Zhiyi smiled sinisterly, causing the man to shudder.
Zhang Enyu felt very happy after remarrying. She was finally with the man she loved. However, Sun Lei didn't feel the same way. Without high-end skincare treatments, Zhang Enyu couldn't resist the ravages of time. After just a short period of doing the cooking and chores, quite a few wrinkles had appeared on her face.
The more Sun Lei looked at her, the more annoyed he became. He even preferred to sleep in the living room rather than share a room with her.
Sun Lei's change in attitude was naturally noticed by Zhang Enyu. She also realized she was getting older, but she didn't even dare to glance at the cosmetics she used to buy so casually. This made Zhang Enyu feel terrible. Whenever she felt bad, she couldn't help but think of her comfortable days in the past, when her daily routine consisted of nothing but beauty treatments and shopping.
Yet, when she thought of Fang Zhiyi, her face was still full of arrogance and disdain.
Disdain aside, she had to maintain her beauty. So, she turned to Sun Lei for money. Sun Lei gave it to her once or twice, but as the requests became more frequent, he grew impatient: "All you do all day is cook and buy groceries. Why do you need so much money?"
"I... I gave you a lot of money in the past!" Zhang Enyu looked at the man she loved deeply.
Sun Lei, however, retorted, "You know you gave it to me, right? It wasn't for me to save for you. I didn't have much money to begin with, and now look, you've brought your whole family over to freeload off me!"
"How can you say that? They are your sons!"
"Even if they are my sons, they need to find something to do. They just lounge around the house all day acting like lords. Do they still think they're in the Fang household?" Sun Lei showed no mercy. After spending some time together, his relationship with the three sons wasn't as awkward as before. He was even a bit thrilled when the youngest, Fang Yunyao, called him 'Dad,' and he had immediately given the boy some pocket money.
But as time went on, the problems began to show. Fang Yunhui was too proud and refused to do anything. He even looked down on Sun Lei and still hadn't called him 'Dad' once.
Ever since Fang Yunyi was expelled from school, he often hung out with the wrong crowd, occasionally bringing petty thugs home. What was worse, he even stole Sun Lei's money!
Looking at it now, only his biological daughter was the most well-behaved, sweet-talking and articulate.
Sun Lei had always been someone who spent whatever he had. Over the years, he had lived quite comfortably as a parasite and had even raised Fang Nian. But now that Fang Zhiyi had fallen, his already meager savings had instantly bottomed out.
On the Sun family's dining table, the original five dishes and one soup became four dishes and one soup, then three dishes, and eventually just two dishes and one soup.
"What the hell is this!" Fang Yunhui finally couldn't hold it in and violently threw down his chopsticks. "Even dogs wouldn't eat this stuff!"
Zhang Enyu looked at her son in surprise, her expression gradually turning into anger: "Then you cook! You're in your twenties. Instead of going out to make money, you just stay at home eating for free, and now you're being picky?"
Fang Yunhui turned his head and roared, "If you hadn't gone to Dad's shop to make a scene and smashed someone's antiques, how would our family have ended up like this today!"
Sun Lei was stunned. "You still call him Dad? You ungrateful wretch!"
"What did you say!" Fang Yunhui pointed right at Sun Lei's nose. "Don't think that just because you sired me, you're my dad. Do you even deserve it? You're just my biological father! I have nothing to do with you!"
Zhang Enyu also jumped up. "You unfilial son! What are you saying!" She swung wildly at Fang Yunhui.
Fang Yunhui pushed her aside with one hand. "You jinx! Don't think I've forgotten how you abused Fang Yuran in the past! Do you think you're any better? All you know is how to spend money, and you complained that Dad only cared about making money and ignored the family! I was led astray by you!"
He had been bottling things up for a long time. Days without money were truly unbearable, and living under someone else's roof without money was even worse. This was completely different from what he had imagined. His ideal life was inheriting Fang Zhiyi's restaurant, then sitting in an office every day, picking up girls, and waiting for the money to roll in, definitely not this!
"Get out! Get out of our house!" Sun Lei roared in anger.
"Fine, I will!" Fang Yunhui charged straight out the door.
The atmosphere at the dining table was heavy. Fang Yunyi, who was out fooling around, still hadn't returned.
A moment later, Sun Lei suddenly patted his pocket. "That bastard took my car keys!"
He rushed out angrily to chase him, but how could he possibly catch up?
The furious Fang Yunhui drove the car, cursing the junk vehicle while stepping hard on the gas pedal. He wanted to go see how Fang Zhiyi was doing. Regardless of whether they were divorced, at least Fang Zhiyi didn't know he wasn't his biological son. If he asked for money, Fang Zhiyi would definitely give it to him.
Just as his mind wandered, a young boy suddenly appeared in front of him. Fang Yunhui was startled, but it was too late to brake. He could only watch helplessly as the car barreled toward the child. In the nick of time, a figure suddenly appeared and yanked the child away.
Fang Yunhui's car crashed straight into a roadside coffee shop. Amidst the sound of shattering glass, many customers screamed and fled.
In a daze, Fang Yunhui heard a familiar voice.
"No need to thank me, I just couldn't stand by and watch. Just keep a close eye on the child."
"Excuse me, do you need a lawyer to help seek compensation? I know someone."
By the time he was dragged out of the car, he finally saw that departing figure. The word "Dad" got stuck in his throat and couldn't be called out. What greeted him instead were charges from the law enforcement agency.
Dangerous driving and damaging others' property meant detention and a fine. Because Fang Yunhui had no money, the authorities went to Sun Lei's house. Hearing that he had crashed the car and still had to pay compensation, Sun Lei angrily slammed the door in their faces, and was subsequently taken away for obstructing law enforcement.
Knowing that this compensation and fine had to be paid, Zhang Enyu begged Sun Lei for a long time before he finally relented and let her get the money from the cabinet where he hid his cash. Zhang Enyu hadn't expected him to actually have money hidden away, and her eyes were full of disappointment.
But saving her son was more important. She hurried home, only to find that Sun Lei's money was gone.
"Mom, what are you looking for?" Fang Yunyao, with messy hair, came out after finishing a video game.
"Where's the money? Where's the money that was here?" Zhang Enyu grabbed Fang Yunyao. Startled, he replied, "I don't know, what money?" He suddenly remembered, "Second brother was hanging around here the other day. Maybe you should ask him..."
Zhang Enyu collapsed onto the floor.
Sun Lei, who had waited in vain for Zhang Enyu, was released. When he learned that his money was gone, he furiously cursed at home, calling Zhang Enyu a jinx, calling the three sons ungrateful wretches, and even scolding Fang Nian, who had tried to stop him.
After venting his anger, the whole family started looking for Fang Yunyi. It wasn't until midnight that Fang Yunyi staggered back home.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
