“Young Master, your father is seriously ill in the hospital. You should spend more time with him.”
“Why bother? What's the point? He hasn't kicked the bucket yet, has he? All right, I'm off. Call me if anything comes up.”
This is a novel world made up of multiple urban power fantasies.
Just after Zhao Pu becomes a tycoon, he's faced with a plot that has him kicking the bucket.
Even worse, his sons are all major villains in power fantasy novels.
One is a brainless simp who squanders the family fortune; the other is a stupid rich kid who causes trouble wherever he goes.
And his only daughter is going to kill her own father to help the protagonist seize the family fortune?
Damn it!
How the hell is he supposed to live like this?
What a load of crap!
Fine, then. Don't blame your father for showing no mercy. I'm taking back control: I'll disown my simp of a son, lock up my spoiled brat of a son, and kick my precious daughter out.
As for the protagonist, I know the plot inside out. What have I got to fear?
It's time for this old man to take center stage.
I'll come clean: I was only pretending before. I'm not sick!
I can still father eight or ten more sons!
