The Family of One Billion and Ten Minutes

Twenty-nine-year-old Shen Zhongna, whose name is taken from the most active metal in the periodic table of elements, has a life of stagnant water. Until an overseas phone call, a billion inheritance fell into his peaceful life like a meteorite. He thought this was the beginning of redemption, but in fact it was a purgatory of family touchstones. At family gatherings, affectionate greetings turn into overt and covert plots; at small weddings, the wine glass of blessing is filled with the poison of public humiliation; at the probate meeting, the delicate mask of an oath that is thicker than water is torn off. When he finally grasped the string of numbers representing wealth, he found that the so-called blood relationship had long been replaced by a cold adoption agreement. This is an experiment using money to measure human nature. When an inheritance of one billion becomes a magic mirror, Shen Zhongna sees clearly the strangest desires and betrayals under every familiar face in the family's fame and fortune. And he must answer: When "who you are" is redefined and blood and wealth are stripped away, what is left that can be called "I"?
