Provocation

Because he was so beautiful, Pei Zhen was coveted by a pack of men with ulterior motives from an early age. He had no parents, and the grandfather he depended on was merely a gardener for the Qin family. He was no match for the young masters of those wealthy families. Whenever they bullied him, he could only keep his head down and study in silence, hoping to leave far behind once he grew up. But no matter what, those men refused to let him go. His grandfather died protecting him. With nowhere left to turn, Pei Zhen planned to die together with them, never expecting to open his eyes and find himself back in childhood. Something major had recently happened in the Qin family, the most powerful family in Yuncheng. The family head's only son, born when his father was over fifty, had fallen into the water and nearly died. After waking, the pampered young master grabbed the gardener's grandson and declared him his savior. He insisted they eat and live together, never leaving each other's side. . The eldest grandson of the Qin family had his eye on a pretty toy. From childhood to adulthood, he'd always gotten anything he wanted. But this time, before he could make a move, his younger uncle, who was younger than him but higher in family rank, beat him to it. He only wanted to touch the pretty toy's hair, but his little uncle lured a swarm of bees over and got him stung until his head looked like a pig's. Lying in the hospital, he cried and complained to his parents, only to be sternly reprimanded for disrespecting his elders and bullying someone younger. His little uncle came to visit under false pretenses, holding the pretty boy's hand. Where no one else could see, he smugly stuck his tongue out at him, nearly making him faint with rage. Somehow, word got around. Everyone knew that the Qin family's fearless little devil had a weakness, someone he protected like the apple of his eye and wouldn't let anyone touch. Later, at the Qin family patriarch's eightieth birthday banquet, all the leading figures of Yuncheng's upper class arrived with their families. They saw the old master's only son walk out hand in hand with an exceptionally handsome man. Smiling openly at them, he said, "This is my partner." Pei Zhen never expected that saving a drowning child on a whim would make the rest of his life go so smoothly because of that boy. The people who had humiliated him in his previous life now didn't dare so much as glance at him. * A guide to surviving among the wealthy family's young masters: 1. Don't provoke the big devil. 2.
