Hurry up, babe. My husband is coming back soon!”
Inside a luxurious mansion, a disembodied voice could be heard urging someone in the bedroom as Qin Yu stood before the door.
The voice sounded familiar to him as its owner was his wife, Su Yan.
”He’s just a good-for-nothing. So what if he’s back? I’ll have him eat humble pie even if sees us!” A man jeered with a hoarse voice.
Standing before the door, Qin Yu was trembling in rage.
The burning anger nearly caused him to lose it.
Bang!
As his anger boiled, he kicked the door open.
A man and a woman could be seen with disheveled clothing in the room.
Glaring at Su Yan, who was on the bed fawning over the man next to her, Qin Yu was brimmed with fury. Tears rolled down his cheeks uncontrollably.
Su Yan, why are you doing this to me?” Qin Yu questioned while gritting his teeth and shooting her a wrenching look of agony.
Su Yan became slightly panicked for a moment, but she regained her composure soon after.
With that, she put on an impassive look.
”Since you’ve already found it out, I’ll not hide it anymore,” Su Yan remarked.
”Why are you treating me like this? I’ve been living a miserable life in the Su family for three years! I always listened to whatever you said — I’d never stand if you asked me to remain seated! So why did you betray me?” Qin Yu bellowed as tears drenched his face.
Su Yan derided, “No woman would like a spineless person who accomplished nothing in life like you.”
After speaking, she turned to peer at the burly man beside her.
”Do you know who this man is? He is the young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Gang! To be frank, I’ve been two-timing you with him since a long time ago. If it weren’t for grandpa, I would’ve divorced you and kicked you out of my house from day one!” Su Yan added in a derisive tone.
Upon hearing that, tears ran down Qin Yu’s face profusely.
I’ve been living my life in fear all these time. I was always afraid of making you upset.
”I would wake up at midnight to prepare you a hot meal whenever you were hungry; I would ride the motorcycle all the way to South City just to pick your favorite flower for you.
”I—”
”That’s enough!” Su Yan interrupted in annoyance.
Those heartfelt and touching moments could not touch a heartless woman like her.
”Do you think doing these petty things are sufficient? If it weren’t for my grandpa, who insisted on our marriage, do you think I would even spare a glance at a man like you — a useless man with zero accomplishments? Know your place, wimp!” Su Yan scoffed.
”You should learn a thing or two from Zhao Gang!” Su Yan noted while wagging her finger at the man next to her.
”He amassed a fortune of nearly 100 million at such a young age! He is signing deals with the Yan family from Jindu! Can you even comprehend what that means? Do you have any idea how powerful those people from Jingdu are? They can turn us into the nouveau riche with just a word!” Su Yan remarked.
”Why are you telling him all these? How could a cuck like him know about the Yan family from Jingdu?” Zhao Gang mocked while looking at Qin Yu in contempt.
Qin Yu forced a bitter smile on his face.
Indeed, he knew nothing about the business world, but even he has heard about Jingdu’s Yan family before.
Besides, the news about them was covered all over Jiangcheng’s mass media lately. So it was practically impossible for Qin Yu not to hear about it.
Gazing at Su Yan’s beautiful yet deadpan countenance, Qin Yu could not help but weep in silence.
”I’ve been serving you faithfully for three whole years. One would even have feelings for a dog after such a long time…” Qin Yu lamented with a sniffle.
Su Yan snickered, “You’re worse than a dog.”
Zhao Gang jibed, “Hey, dork. Be sensible and forget what you saw today. Then the three of us can continue to live happily ever after, and you’ll still get to serve your wife.
”But if you wanna try anything funny, then pack your stuff and get out of here.” Zhao Gang chided in a snobbish tone as if he was the household owner.
Qin Yu became feeble all of a sudden.
Old Mister Su, who was addicted to fortune telling back then, had prophesied that Qin Yu would bring good luck to the Su family, so the former married the latter to his granddaughter.
Apart from Old Mister Su, No one looked up to him while he was a live-in son-in-law for the past three years.
Hence, his inferiority complex worsened, and he tried his best to please everyone in the Su family, fearing that they would be irked by him.
Yet his futile efforts were rewarded with betrayal and disappointment.
”I’m really hopeless, aren’t I?” Qin Yu commented in a self-deprecating tone as the corner of his lips lifted.
”After three long years, I should start to grow a spine, right?” A glint of hostility flashed in Qin Yu’s eyes as he glared at the adulterers before him
Why? You cant take it?” Zhao Gang taunted after noticing Qin Yu’s look. Not only was Zhao Gang unaffected, but he also donned a satirical smirk on his face.
Qin Yu fixed his stare on Zhao Gang and clenched his fists. Gritting his teeth, he roared, “You son of a b*tch, I’ll kill you!”
Immediately after, Qin Yu dashed towards Zhao Gang.
However, a puny man like Qin Yu was no match for Zhao Gang.
Before he could land a blow on Zhao Gang, he was kicked to the ground by the latter.
He could not stand because of the unbearable pain in his abdomen.
”Bloody hell! How dare you raise your hand against me?” Zhao Gang was overflowing with wrath.
After striding towards Qin Yu, Zhao Gang beat the weak man to a pulp.
Qin Yu laid on the cold floor in despair and received every blow directed at him.
”What a pathetic life I’ve led.” Qin Yu covered his head, looking anguished.
”I couldn’t even take my revenge. I… Guess I don’t deserve to live anymore…” Qin Yu moaned with a lifeless look.
The relentless blows on his body caused blood to spill from his mouth.
”It’s alright. Just forget about him. Hitting a useless maggot like him is an insult to you,” Su Yan noted coquettishly, pulling Zhao Gang’s arm.
Zhao Gang spat on Qin Yu’s face. While crooking his finger in the door’s direction, Zhao Gang threatened, “Get lost right now! Or else I’ll beat you to death!”
Why? You cant take it?” Zhao Gang taunted after noticing Qin Yu’s look. Not only was Zhao Gang unaffected, but he also donned a satirical smirk on his face.

Zhao Gang spat on Qin Yu’s face. While crooking his finger in the door’s direction, Zhao Gang threatened, “Get lost right now! Or else I’ll beat you to death!”
Qin Yu struggled while getting on his feet and trudged towards the exit.
His heart was filled with hatred towards this pair of adulterers, but he hated himself even more for not getting even with them.
Qin Yu was reluctant to accept the humiliation and leave just like that.
”Su Yan, I promise you’ll regret this,” Qin Yu turned around and reproached.
Pointing his finger at Qin Yu, Zhao Gang berated, “Buzz off! You hear me?”
Wiping the blood off the corners of his lips, Qin Yu plodded out of the Su Residence.
As Qin Yu arrived before the main entrance, he stumbled upon his mother-in-law, Sun Yumei, who had just come back.
Noticing the Mercedes Benz parked in front of the main entrance, Sun Yumei seemed to get a hold of the story.
”Mother… ” Qin Yu greeted in a grievance.
Sun Yumei glanced at him with an emotionless look.
Waving her hand in vexation, she uttered, “Now that you know about it, then you know what you should do! To tell you the truth, all of us agreed to kick you out of our family!”
Hearing that only deepened his despair.
”Did grandpa agree to it too?” Qin Yu asked.
Sun Yumei retorted, “His opinion is irrelevant! The Zhao family has signed deals with the Yan family from Jingdu! If we can ride on the wave of the Yan family, we’ll finally elevate ourselves among the elites!
”This involves the development of our family business on a macro level. What makes you think that an old geezer like him could have a say in this?” Sun Yumei said.
”As for whatever good luck he keeps babbling on about, it’s all just feudal mindsets and backward superstitions.”
Qin Yu remained taciturn the whole time.
The Su family’s heartlessness caused him to be disheartened.
After wiping his mouth, he strode out of the Su Residence.
The physical pain and mental shock proved to be too much for him to bear.
At that moment, he finally passed out on the sidewalk of the main road.
Out of the blue, a Maybach with a Jingdu license plate came to a halt before Qin Yu.
After the window winded down, a long-haired, elegant-looking girl could be seen frowning as she stared at Qin Yu, who laid on the ground.
”So this is the guy who grandpa betrothed me to?” The woman winked her eyes as she scrutinized Qin Yu.
Her eyes were filled with disdain as she stared at the unconscious scruffy Qin Yu.
”Miss, perhaps… You may have mistaken him for that person? Surely Old Mister Yan wouldn’t match you with a dull commoner like this guy?” A man, who was dressed like a bodyguard in the car, criticized with his brows knitted together.
Yan Ruoxue remained silent. Making a gesture, she ordered, “Bring him into the car.”
”Yes, Miss.” Her bodyguards disembarked and immediately carried Qin Yu back into the car.
Her furrowed brows intensified as she peered at the unkempt man before her.
”Grandpa, do you really want me to marry this good-for-nothing of a man?” Yan Ruoxue sighed in resignation as she recounted her grandfather’s exhortation before leaving.
”Ruoxue, our family owes him a lot! If it weren’t for Qin Yu’s father, our family would never be what it is today!
”His father left him a keepsake and requested me to hand it to him once he reached thirty.
”Mr. Qin was an almighty man. I believe his son will be something else as well. Listen carefully, Ruoxue. You must be kind to Qin Yu.”
Her grandfather’s urging was played in her mind repeatedly. A hint of resignation could be seen on her breathtaking face.
”If he’s a rough diamond with untapped potential, I’ll agree to grandpa’s request,” Yan Ruoxue mumbled silently.
”But if he’s just a worthless peasant, I’ll not go along with it.” Yan Ruoxue heaved a deep sigh.
She rubbed her fingers against the turquoise jade pendant, which was the memento that her grandfather asked her to pass on to Qin Yu.
Yan Ruoxue meticulously placed the pendant around Qin Yu’s neck and turned her head away.
“With that, our family has fulfilled the promise of returning him the keepsake,” Yan Ruoxue thought.
Nevertheless, she did not notice that the pendant with bloodstains glimmered when it touched Qin Yu’s skin before entering his body at lightning speed.

Nevertheless, she did not notice that the pendant with bloodstains glimmered when it touched Qin Yu’s skin before entering his body at lightning speed.
The car was moving on the road smoothly towards the hospital.
”Miss, the mayor of Jiangcheng and the Chamber of Commerce of Jiangcheng would like to invite you over for a meal,” the secretary beside Yan Ruoxue mentioned.
Instantly, Yan Ruoxue reverted to her usual aloof attitude.
She replied with a stern look, “Turn them down. Send Qin Yu to the hospital first.”
The secretary teased with a smirk, “Miss, are you telling me that you are planning to marry this trash of a human?”
Upon hearing that, Yan Ruoxue shot him a sharp look.
”Huh? Are you trying to teach me what to do?” Yan Ruoxue remarked.
Color drained from his face, and he mentally slapped himself on the cheek and noted, “My apologies, Miss. I’ve talked too much.”
Following that, Yan Ruoxue cupped her mouth with her hand and coughed intensely.
”Miss, it’s time to take your medicine,” the secretary hurriedly reminded.
”Continue driving!” Yan Ruoxue paid no heed to his words and commanded expressionlessly.
The car sped off towards the hospital at Yan Ruoxue’s order.
At that time, however, Qin Yu felt like he was dreaming while he was in a state of unconsciousness.
In the dream, everything was pitch-black no matter where he looked.
A man could be seen staring at Qin Yu with an impassive look in the darkness.
He was a man with a gallant stature and a domineering aura. He was like a god. Just the sight of him caused one to have a powerful urge to worship him.
”W-where is this place, and who are you?” Qin Yu stammered in anxiety.
That man turned in Qin Yu’s direction and looked straight into his eyes.
”To think that my son would end up being such an incompetent man,” the man lamented.
Son? What is he talking about?
Qin Yu felt a stabbing sensation in his heart when he heard those words.
He had never seen his parents, not since his earliest consciousness.
It was only natural that he would long to experience familial love.
Although Qin Yu could not recognize the man standing before him, he could feel an indescribable connection.
”A-are you my father? Dad, I’ve missed you so much… ” Qin Yu stretched out his arm, trying to touch his father, but it went right through the man.
”A man should thrive at age 30. I’ll now bestow you with all of my knowledge. This is your inheritance,” the man uttered coldly.
”If you’re a good-for-nothing, I believe the Yan family will take care of you for the rest of your life. But I’ll never come and see you.
”If you’ve got a backbone, there’s nothing that can stop you in this world!
”And I’m very much looking forward to our meeting.”
After his monologue, the scenery before Qin Yu began to crumble.
Upon seeing that, Qin Yu shouted like a mad man, “Dad! Don’t go, dad!”
Yet, nothing Qin Yu uttered could stop the scene before him from disappearing.
Sorrowed, Qin Yu dropped to his knees and sobbed in agony.
Even if it was just a dream, he had hoped to see his parents like other people did, to grouse about his hardships with them.
But no matter what he did, the sight before him continued to crumble into nothingness.
Soon, a collection of vast memories flooded his mind — all of which were unfamiliar to him.
Among them were scared medical knowledge, cultivation methods, mystical arts, and more.
Right then, a turquoise-colored Qi (energy) flowed into his dantian (the place where life force is located) slowly.
His consciousness went out before he could react.
When he came to, he was already lying in a king-size bed.
A girl with long hair and slender legs could be seen sitting before him.
”You’re finally awake!” Yan Ruoxue scrutinized Qin Yu as if she could see through him.
With that, Qin Yu quickly got up and stuttered in nervousness, “W-who are you?”
Yan Ruoxue did not want to disclose her identity this early, so she responded, “I’m Ruoxue. I saw you fainted on the sidewalk, so I rescued you on a whim.
”How strange though. The doctor said that there was nothing wrong with you.” Yan Ruoxue’s eyes twinkled as she peered at the man before her in curiosity.
Qin Yu frowned a little and murmured, “So it wasn’t just a dream after all?”
Closing his eyes, Qin Yu began to contemplate.
As expected, the memory was still intact, and it seemed to be merging with his! This was amazing!
Even the Qi inside his dantian did not show any sign of dispersion at all!
”So, this is all real!” A glimmer of hope lit up in Qin Yu’s heart that was brimming with disappointment up till that moment.
The scared medical scrolls and the cultivation methods were the things that could change his current miserable state.
”I saved you. Yet, you don’t even express your gratitude? Where are your manners?” Yan Ruoxue commented as she rolled her eyes.
At that, Qin Yu regained his composure and jumped to his feet. Bowing his head to Yan Ruoxue, he uttered awkwardly, ” M-Miss Ruoxue, thank you for rescuing me.”
Yan Ruoxue burst into laughter at the sight of Qin Yu’s clumsy manner.
For some unknown reason, she somehow found the silly man before her a little cute.
”Alright, don’t sweat it. I was just pulling your leg.” Yan Ruoxue waved her hand.
After speaking, Yan Ruoxue covered her mouth and coughed violently.
Just then, a man in doctor’s scrubs came in.
”Miss, you should take your medication,” the doctor suggested while carrying a medical box in his hand.
Yan Ruoxue nodded.
A glass of warm water was placed on the table. Then, the doctor took out a table full of medicine from the box.
Gazing at Yan Ruoxue, countless knowledge from the sacred medical scrolls flashed in Qin Yu’s mind.
Qin Yu could not help but feel a little excited at what was hapening.
After some hesitation, he moved forward and asked, “Miss Ruoxue, are you not feeling well?”
Glancing at Qin Yu with the corners of her eyes, Yan Ruoxue replied casually, “Yeah. I’ve had asthma since young.”
Asthma!
The treatment methods for asthma immediately came into Qin Yu’s mind.
Still, Qin Yu did not dare to speak up as he lacked self-confidence.
Rooted to the spot, he watched as Yan Ruoxue swallowed all the drugs on the table.
Nevertheless, Yan Ruoxue’s symptoms did not improve even after taking all the pills.
Upon seeing that, Qin Yu took a deep breath to muster his courage. Then, he took a step forward and uttered, “Miss Ruoxue, could you please let me try to help? I might be able to treat your sickness.”
After hearing his words, a hint of astonishment flashed in Yan Ruoxue’s pretty eyes.
A while later, she chuckled, “I have asthma. It is incurable. Don’t tell me that you can’t even understand something so simple?”
Qin Yu immediately clarified, “I don’t know how to explain it to you. But… I still want to give it a go. Maybe this might work…”
Having heard that, Yan Ruoxue’s brows knitted together.
The doctor who was standing at the side jeered, “Hey man, you’re not even a doctor. So tell me, how do you plan to cure it?”
At once, Qin Yu’s face turned red up to his ears. He stood awkwardly.
”I’m tired of seeing people like you. You’re just lusting after Miss Ruoxue, trying to take advantage of her,” the doctor added.
”If my guess is right on the money, your treatment involves the touching of skin, right?”
Qin Yu’s mouth hung agape. Biting the bullet, he answered, “You are right…”
Hahaha. You see, miss. This fellow is nothing but a lecherous scum,” the doctor derided.
Yan Ruoxue’s expression turned gloomy.
Glaring at Qin Yu, she warned, “Do you know what’s the consequences of taking advantage of me?”
Qin Yu hurriedly explained, “No, it’s not like that. I was not trying to take advantage of you. I can really cure your disease. I mean it.”
”Hmph! You are spouting ridiculous words,” the doctor denigrated.
”Asthma might not be a serious illness, but it has always been a chronic condition! There’s no way to cure it completely! This is common sense! Miss, I suggest that we chop his hand off and throw it out of the window!” the doctor continued.
Yan Ruoxue remained taciturn and sized Qin Yu up.
No one knew what she was thinking.
”I am willing to give you a chance,” Yan Ruoxue stated after a while.
”But if it doesn’t work, things will get ugly for you,” Yan Ruoxue added with a wink.
Despite knowing that Yan Ruoxue was not someone to be trifled with, Qin Yu was full of confidence at that time.
Besides, he could not wait to test and see if the knowledge of the scared medical scrolls was legit.
”Alright!” Qin Yu nodded strenuously.
”Miss, do you really want to trust him? It is obvious to everyone that he is just—”
”Shut up!” Yan Ruoxue reproached before the doctor could finish his lines.
Immediately, the doctor became silent. He stood at the sidelines without another word, albeit reluctantly.
”Is there anything I need to do, Doctor Qin?” Yan Ruoxue asked in a playful tone.
Having heard that, Qin Y’s face flushed and murmured, “I-I will have to place my hand on your chest…”
After Qin Yu spoke, his face was red down to his neck.
Lowering his head, Qin Yu took in Yan Ruoxue’s fair cleavage.. It was an alluring sight to behold.
You punk! How dare you make such an insolent request?” the doctor immediately bellowed in anger.
All of them regarded Yan Ruoxue as their idol in their hearts. She was comparable to that of a holy angel to them. Therefore, they would never allow anyone to defile her, especially a cuck like Qin Yu.
Even Yan Ruoxue’s bodyguards dashed forward, trying to encircle him.
However, Yan Ruoxue stared at Qin Yu emotionlessly.
After some ponderation, Yan Ruoxue finally agreed to let him try.
She thought to herself that if he was a liar, she will have a real reason to turn down this whole betrothal thing.
After lying on the bed, Yan Ruoxue’s pale and ample breasts came into Qin Yu’s sight.
With a flushed face, Qin Yu walked towards Yan Ruoxue.
He murmured, “Please excuse me, Miss Ruoxue.”
After speaking, Qin Yu stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Yan Ruoxue.
Yan Ruoxue’s beauty was out of this world. Su Yan paled in comparison.
Yan Ruoxue’s voluptuous figure was so perfect that no one could resist the sight of her.
The doctor and the bodyguards’ eyes nearly popped out of their sockets at the sidelines.
If Yan Ruoxue did not stop them, they would have cut Qin Yu to pieces, turning him into mincemeat already.
Qin Yu held back his urges and disregarded his dirty thoughts to calm his nerves.
He then followed the instructions of the scared medical scrolls in his mind to channel his Qi, which took the shape of a flying dragon, in his dantian and transferred it out.
Following that, a warm feeling slowly traveled from Qin Yu’s palm into Yan Ruoxue’s body.
Yan Ruoxue was instantly warmed up. A while later, she felt scorching heat throughout her entire body, as if she was soaking herself in a hot spring.
As time passed, beads of sweat started to form on his forehead.
Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye.
Yan Ruoxue’s expression turned sullen. “There’s a limit to how much you can take advantage of me! Would you cut it out already?”
Furthermore, Yan Ruoxue did not feel anything different apart from the warm feeling in her body.
Instead, she had difficulty breathing and was overwhelmed with stuffiness in her chest, causing an unbearable urge to cough. These symptoms only added to her frustration.
Shaking her head, Yan Ruoxue thought, “It seems grandpa had thought too highly of him.”
Just then, Qin Yu moved his hand away from Yan Ruoxue’s body.
Wiping his sweat off, he uttered softly, “Miss Ruoxue, I’m done with your treatment already. It should take roughly ten minutes for you to be fully recovered.”
Sitting up from the bed, Yan Ruoxue mocked, “I’ll be fully recovered in ten minutes, you say? Do you take me as a fool?”
After Yan Ruoxue spoke, she started coughing violently as her face turned ashen.
At the sight of that, Qin Yu became rooted to the ground. He was anxious that he did not know what to do with his hands.
”Miss, let us finish him off!” the burly bodyguards piped in unison.
Yan Ruoxue waved her hand while glancing at the clock on the wall. She declared, “Okay. I’ll give him ten minutes.”
Truth be told, even Qin Yu himself was unsure if it would work.
After all, Qin Yu could not tell if the surreal experience earlier was reality or just a dream.
Without warning, the bodyguards strode toward Qin Yu and surrounded him as if they were afraid that he might try to escape.
Nine minutes passed in no time at all.
Peeking at the wall clock, Yan Ruoxue questioned with a deadpan face, “Looks like you were telling me lies. So, how was it? Was it good to touch?”
Qin Yu could not help but put on a wry smile. He knew that any explanation would be futile, as they would be brushed off as an excuse. So he would rather not say a word.
The bodyguards took a step forward, trying to seize him, but Qin Yu was calm. He did not feel terrified, even for a second.
Death might be liberation for him at this point, seeing that he no longer had any hope left in this world.
”Just forget it,” Yan Ruoxue stated while waving her hand.
”For reasons that I do not wish to disclose, I will let you off the hook this time. However, I do not want to see you again,” Yan Ruoxue added coldly.
Remaining taciturn, Qin Yu got up and bowed to Yan Ruoxue.
”I’ll take my leave now, Miss Ruoxue,” Qin Yu said and turned to leave.
”Miss, are you gonna let it slide just like that?” the bodyguards queried in discontent after Qin Yu
Yan Ruoxue shot them a glance and remained silent for a bit.
”Just consider it as repaying the favor to his dad,” Yan Ruoxue sighed silently. The disappointment was written all over her face.
Before she came to Jiangcheng, her grandfather had aggrandized Qin Yu in a loquacious manner, to the point of apotheosizing the man. She held high expectations of him.
”Grandpa, it looks like you were wrong about him,” Yan Ruoxue bemoaned.
At that moment, Yan Ruoxue felt a warm feeling flowing inside of her.
Before she could react, she had a violent cough. Then a dark, turbid substance came out of her mouth.
”Miss, are you alright?”
”What did that bastard do to you? I’m gonna drag him back right now!”
”I’m so gonna slaughter him!”
Hearing their remarks, Yan Ruoxue stopped them.
After touching her chest, she was surprised to find that the stuffy feeling that had been torturing her for years had disappeared. Even the dry and itchy feeling in her throat dissipated utterly.
”So he was telling the truth?” Yan Ruoxue commented confusedly. She was confounded by what she was feeling.
”Get him back here right now!” Yan Ruoxue commanded.
