Oh No! I Can’t Accept Yi Zhonghai’s Filial Devotion

After waking up, office worker Yi Tian transmigrates into a Siheyuan courtyard. To his surprise, he turns out to be related to Yi Zhonghai, the so-called paragon of morality. Faced with this conveniently acquired “uncle,” Yi Tian knows the story and can only sneer. If Yi Zhonghai wants to make him a backup plan for his old age, he can forget it. When Yi Zhonghai tries to guilt-trip him by pulling rank as an elder, Yi Tian decides to lay his cards on the table and makes up a story on the spot: “According to our family tree, I’m your family’s eighteenth-generation ancestor. You should call me Great-Grand Ancestor!” He only means to get under Yi Zhonghai’s skin and make him back off. But the next morning, Yi Zhonghai sneaks into his room carrying breakfast, his face crinkled into a flattering grin. He lowers his voice and asks: “Great-Grand Ancestor, would you… happen to need someone to serve you tea and water?” Yi Tian: “???” Wait, how did the script of this Siheyuan courtyard go completely off the rails right from the start?
