My Scumbag Brother Wants Me to Take the Fall for His Crimes? I'll Cut Ties Instead

What's it like to have parents who play favorites to an extreme?

Su Yun probably knows better than anyone.

As one of only two sons in the Su family, he and his older brother were treated completely differently from childhood.

His brother wore silk and satin, feasted on delicacies, and had as many as twenty servants waiting on him.

Su Yun, by contrast, was treated in the exact opposite way, struggling to get enough to eat almost every day.

They were both sons of the Su family, both their parents' own flesh and blood, so why were his parents so harsh with him and so tender with his older brother?

Was it simply because he was born unlikable?

So, desperate for his parents' attention and approval, Su Yun tried every way he could to please his family, carrying out every order from his parents to the best of his ability.

Then his older brother got drunk, caused a scene, and molested the city lord's second daughter. Everything changed after that.

Afraid the truth about his brother's assault would come out, their parents made Su Yun take the blame. They promised that once he got out of prison, he would enjoy the same treatment as his older brother.

Believing his hard days were finally over, Su Yun happily agreed to his parents' request.

But when he finally returned from prison, he learned that his father had long since struck his name from the family records, his fiancee had become his older brother's wife, and all his achievements had been credited to his brother.

That day, Su Yun understood that his parents had never considered him their son.

Reborn into a new life, Su Yun grinned savagely as he picked up a sharp butcher's knife and turned toward these so-called relatives.
