1 Inherited Gift

The Qing dynasty race has been left the dark ages behind as the technology improved and ruined our lives in equal measure, and the devils in society hid with better camouflage.

THE WORLD WAS a dangerous place, but I was the worse creature ever.

As the years rolled by, and we left our treacherous ways behind, people forgot about the shadows lurking in plain sight. Men like me morphed into predators in sheep's clothing. We preyed on the weak with no apology, and everything landed in our ownership. Those civilizations cloaked us, hiding the animals at heart.

We traded caveman mentality and murder for suits and softly spoken curses. I hid my true temperament beneath a veil of decency. And I've mastered the art of gentle.

Instead, I was known as a perfect gentleman as a distinguished, accomplished, and shrewd east wind.

To be honest, I indeed was all of those things, but all of them only for worldly show play. We might have live in a civilized world, but rules and laws didn't apply to me as I was a rule-breaker, curse maker, tearing down other life.

Whether for the clans, honour, or duty.

So I'd embraced my uncultivated beast that yet was governed by a hierarchy and when the contract has to reach the Jin matriarch snapped their fingers, we all came running.

Including my heartless and unruly father, Jin Yozhi.

Therewith his cigar and teapot set on the table in his library gave me a mission and told me the truth that forever changed my life.

And from that, I learned about the girl.

My family has owned another household that has to delist their entire existence clan.

Until to this day, I didn't know why, and I didn't bother asking the details.

But...

Who gave a shit why a wealthy family called the Yu were indebted to us?

Who gave a damn that they'd royally fucked off my family and earned the wrath of my ancestors?

All I cared about was that I'd inherited something more than just money, possessions, or titles, on my birthday.

Instead of that, on my twenty-eighth birthday, they granted me a girl.

So it's called a mistress may be a lady. But that requires a responsibility that I didn't want.

And their clan debt that I had to extract from unwilling young girl flesh.

A duty to uphold our family honour, Yu Lanzhi has been granted for me to pay her ancestor clan's debt.

From what I know for one mistake from one thousand years ago has put a curse on her entire family clan.

One the ancestor mistake has sold her entire life to me which left her inheritance a mountain of unpayable debt for my family clans.

So do I inherited her, and I even preyed on her?

From that moment, I owned all of her life and had the piece of paper to prove it.

Now Yu Lanzhi, the firstborn of Yu Clan and actually she was the beautiful jade lady was belong to Mine alone and my task…is swallow her for the rest of her life.
