In the past, the former patriarch of the family was least in the favour of his son, Qi Shao Jin. The reason was the lack of proper attitude in him and also the capability. The old man knew that if given the position of the family patriarch in the hands of his disgraceful son then, the name and reputation he has made all these years would come to a pathetic ruin.
So instead of giving the authority to him, he bent to handover it to his elder grandson even when at that time Qi Shuai was in his teenage years. But to the unfortunate luck of the old man, he could not coax his grandson to take the title, instead, he heard him proposing the idea of giving up everything related to the Qi family, including the family name as well.
With many difficulties, cries, requests and almost giving up his life, he could only coax him to carry the title of Qi with his name. But could not stop him from falling out from the family.
