"Young master, you must come back with us. The Han family needs you to take charge right now."

"Your father is critically ill, your brother is in jail, now only you can hold up the Han family."

"You said so, you must let us take you back."

On Yuncheng Zizhong Street, Han Sanqian carried a gift box, wearing clothes bought from a roadside stall, looking indifferent.

"I was never good at flattery or winning people over from a young age. My older brother favored me deeply, fearing I would take his place as heir, so he drove me out of the Han family."

"Having lived in the Han family for three years, I endured humiliation. At no point did the Han family ever show even a sliver of concern. Now that I've left the Han family, they want me to return with just a word? Do they think I, Han Sanqian, am a dog?"

"I just want to be a pathetic loser in peace. Don't bother me."

Han Sanqian strode away, leaving a group of people staring at each other in bewilderment.

The Su family, a second-rate family in Yun City, three years ago Han Sansan fell to the bottom, being personally chosen by the head of the Su family for marriage. At that time, a wedding shocked the entire Yun City, but the reason for the commotion was because Su Yingsha married an unknown nobody, becoming the laughingstock of the whole Yun City.

Only Old Master Su knew the truth of Han Sanqian's document, but two months after their wedding, Old Master Su passed away due to illness. Since then, no one knew about Han Sanqian's document, and he became a truly useless son-in-law.

For three years, Han Sanqian endured ridicule and disdain. But compared to being expelled from the Han family, this was nothing short of chilling.

He has already admitted it, his spine has long been accustomed to being bent.

Today is Su Jia Lao's birthday, Han Sanqian carefully selected a gift, not expensive, destined to be ridiculed, but he only has two taels of silver, that's all he can do.

As for what just happened, Han Sanqian was calm and composed, even a little amused.

His older brother was eloquent and charming, able to win people over. However, he was arrogant and domineering, with a dissolute private life. It was only a matter of time before trouble found him.

Perhaps this is heaven's will to bring ruin to the Han family.

But what does that have to do with me? I'm just Su's family's disowned son-in-law.

Back at the Su family villa, a stunning figure stood at the door, looking anxious.

Su Yingxia, a strikingly beautiful woman, is Han Sanqian's supposedly famous wife. Her exceptional qualities are the reason why their wedding three years ago became a laughingstock.

Han Qian stepped three steps forward and then took two, running up to Su Yingxia's side and saying, "Yingxia, are you waiting for someone?"

Su Yingxia gave Han Qian a glance full of displeasure and said, "Are the gifts ready?"

Han Sanqian raised the gift box in his hand and said, "I'm ready. I spent a lot of thought choosing this one."

Su Yingxia didn't even glance at him. Three years ago, she had no idea what her grandfather was thinking, forcing her to marry Han Sanqian and making him the son-in-law of the family.

What puzzled Su Yingsha even more was that before his death, her grandfather held her hand and warned her not to underestimate Han Sanqian.

For three years, Su Yinhao couldn't figure out what was so special about this waste that her grandfather looked at him differently. If she hadn't been worried about the reputation of the Su family, she would have divorced Han Sanqian long ago.

"Later, just don't speak. All the relatives will be here today and they can't help but make snide remarks about you. Just bear with it, I don't want to lose face because of you." Su Yingxia reminded her.

Han Sanqian smiled and nodded, seeming completely nonchalant.

Seeing Han Sanqian's resume, Su Yingxia felt like she wanted to bang her head against the wall. He had no background, and he wasn't even that talented! For three whole years, all he did at home was sweep the floor, wash clothes, and cook. He never did anything else.

Han Sanqian had no displeasure with Su Yingxia's attitude. After all, the two were married without any foundation, and she was marrying a cripple like him, which was undeniably unfair to Su Yingxia. Therefore, he understood her feelings.

When the two of them walked into the living room, almost all of Su's relatives had arrived, and the atmosphere was lively.

"Summer, you've finally arrived."

"Happy birthday, why are you so late?"

"It couldn't be that they're preparing some kind of surprise, could it?"

Relatives warmly greeted Su Yinxia, completely ignoring Han Sanqian's presence.

Used to being a background character, Han Sanqian didn't mind. It was better to be ignored so that no one would make fun of him.

However, there were always people who resented him. Su Yingsha's cousin, Su Haichao, would inevitably make things difficult for Han Sanqian every time they met, belittling him and reducing him to nothing. Even the title of "废婿" (waste husband) that Han Sanqian had in Yun City was largely due to Su Haichao's efforts. He often spread rumors about Han Sanqian outside.

"Han Qian, what's in your hands? Isn't this a gift?" Su Haichao looked at Han Qian with a smile. Such a small thing wrapped in gift paper clearly looked like cheap goods.

"Yeah." Han Sanqian admitted readily.

Su Hai Chao sneered, "What is this thing? Did you buy it from a street stall?"

Han Sanqian shook his head and said, "Bought it from a gift shop."

Although he was being sincere, his words caused an uproar of laughter. Su Yingsha's expression froze. She hadn't expected that as soon as they arrived home, Han Sanqian would embarrass them.

However, Su Yingxia usually stays silent at these times, treating herself and Han Sanqian as family. No matter how embarrassed Han Sanqian gets, as long as the topic doesn't get brought up, she keeps quiet.

"Are you kidding me? It's my 80th birthday, and this is the gift you prepared? Aren't you being a little thoughtless?" Su Haichao walked to the coffee table in the living room. There were all kinds of expensive gifts on it, obviously very valuable. Compared to Han Qiansan's gift box, it was simply worlds apart.

"Look what I got you, aged Pu-erh tea. Do you know how much this tea brick is worth? 880,000 yuan." Su Haichao said proudly.

"Heh heh, good." Han Sanqian glanced at Su Yingsha. Before this, Su Yingsha had already warned him to speak less, so he answered sparingly.

Su Haichao blatantly wanted to show off his superiority in front of Han Qian, continuing to say: "Even taking a bit of scum off the surface of this pastry is more valuable than your gift, isn't it, scum?"

Han Sanqian smiled without saying a word, and the whole living room was filled with snickers.

Although Su Yingxia had made up her mind not to get involved in Han Qian's affairs, after all, Han Qian was still her husband. They had the certificate and the wedding ceremony. Even though for the past three years she had never let Han Qian have a good time and there was no reality of being a couple, but with so many relatives present, Han Qian lost face, and he couldn't bear it.

"Su Haichao, that's enough. It's your business if you have money, and how expensive the gift is doesn't concern us. There's no need to flaunt it." Su Yixia said with displeasure.

Han Sanqian looked at Su Yingxia in surprise. This was the first time in three years that Su Yingxia had spoken up for him.

"Show off? Welcoming Summer, you got that wrong. Would I need to show off in front of a useless guy? I just think he doesn't care about his birthday. And you, he's clueless, no money for gifts. Didn't you know to help out? Anyway, this loser still eats food. Or are you saying it's your birthday that doesn't matter anyway?" Su Haicheng sneered.

"You..." Su Yinhao's face flushed red. As the lowest-ranking member of the Su family, she had the worst living conditions. A gift worth tens of millions? She simply couldn't afford it.

At this moment, Han Sanqian suddenly stood up, walked to Su Haichuan's side, and sniffed the Pu-erh.

"What are you doing? This is a gift, you useless piece of trash!" Su Haichao said angrily.

Han Sansan frowned slightly and said, "Pu-erh tea gets more fragrant as it ages. That's why the older the Pu-erh tea on the market, the higher its price. Because of this, many merchants take advantage of the concept of age to inflate prices."

"Pu-erh tea is divided into raw and ripe teas. The tea leaves in your hand are predominantly green and dark green, indicating that it is a raw tea. Raw tea has a unique flavor that cannot be compared to other types of tea. However, freshly made raw tea contains a high amount of caffeine, which can be stimulating to the digestive system. It requires a long period of aging, and the longer the aging period, the lower the caffeine content will become."

But the tea you have in your hands, because it's deliberately aged, the storage period is far from enough. Drinking it will inevitably harm your health.

"I may be trash, but you're pretending to be good while actually harming people's health. Aren't you even worse than me?"

Han Sanqian's voice boomed through the air, pointing at Su Haichao. The entire Su family villa fell silent.
