A fire three years ago turned Shen Yan, the once brilliant young boss of the Shen family, into a deaf, mute and fool in the eyes of everyone. The family property is being coveted and eroded by the third uncle Shen Zhiguo and the second aunt Liu Yuru. He seems to be stupid and allows others to manipulate him, but in fact he is a dormant master of planning.
He huddled in the woodshed and endured the humiliation, but he used bamboo strips to pry open the chains, drew codes and layout plans on papyrus, and used copper whistles and secret signals to communicate with the outside world. Every cold look and every plot in the ancestral hall was captured by him calmly. When Shen Zhiguo came up with the equity transfer agreement in an attempt to completely encroach on the family foundation, Shen Yan used the excuse of losing the abacus to attract officials and make public the evidence of embezzlement of family property and arson.
In this silent revenge chess game, he spent three years tolerating his moves, and finally ended in the ancestral hall, letting the sin be exposed to the sun, and he was still the "idiot" who silently picked up abacus beads, but there was a strategizing edge hidden in his eyes.
