**Hongtian Street in the Human Realm**
Hongtian Street was known as a bustling food haven. After stepping out, Zhu Mingzhang immediately purchased the latest iPhone model and bought the same one for his sister, Su Ruiqi. The moment they left the store, Su Ruiqi tugged on his arm, eagerly darting from stall to stall.
"Brother, I'm going to try every delicious thing here today!" she declared.
Last month, Zhu Mingzhang had scrimped and saved to buy her an inexpensive Lolita dress. Though it was just a cheap knockoff from a street stall, it elevated her charm instantly when she wore it. Despite only visiting the Human Realm occasionally, the siblings always relished the fresh air and vibrant atmosphere. Zhu Mingzhang had a knack for keeping his sister entertained, always drawing joy from the simplest things in life.
As the saying goes: "Though my dwelling is humble, my virtue elevates it. A simple meal or drink can reveal life's pleasures."
After a hearty feast—
"Burp~!" Su Ruiqi was clutching skewers in both hands, stuffing more food into her mouth despite being full. She let out a satisfied burp and turned to Zhu Mingzhang with a beaming face.
"Brother, where are we heading next?"
"To get a ride," Zhu Mingzhang declared confidently.
Once just a regular office worker with a modest life, his days had been routine—working, scrolling through short videos, and letting time slip by. Occasionally, fleeting emotions would brighten his mood. But now, with a hundred billion in hand, he felt as though he walked with a gust of wind behind him.
However, Zhu Mingzhang remained low-key. Having never experienced wealth before, he was still unsure how to navigate his newfound affluence.
"Brother, listen to me. Why not buy a sports car? You'd look so cool driving one, with how handsome you are!"
"No, no, no," Zhu Mingzhang paused, then said, "Suddenly finding out I'm from a wealthy family—it's a bit much to process."
Before long, Zhu Mingzhang walked out with a macho pink motorcycle and two matching pink helmets.
"This is it," he thought smugly.
"Wow, brother! I never expected this. You've got such great taste! It's my first time seeing a bike like this," Su Ruiqi praised.
**[Ding! The system has detected the host lacks a driving license. A motorcycle license has been granted, and the host has mastered riding skills.]**
In his previous life, Zhu Mingzhang had ridden motorcycles before. With the system's boost, it felt like icing on the cake. He noticed his muscle memory had strengthened significantly.
Sitting on the bike, he donned his helmet.
"Hop on," he told Su Ruiqi.
She climbed aboard excitedly. "Brother, where are we going next?"
"To a fun place," Zhu Mingzhang said with a grin.
He took her to an enormous arcade, where he won her a bag full of plush toys from claw machines. They raced in virtual simulators, played fishing games, and tried everything the arcade had to offer. Su Ruiqi even joined a dance game, stepping to the beat on the screen, leaving her sweaty but elated.
By sunset, Zhu Mingzhang had an idea—he'd take his sister to an internet café and teach her how to play *League of Legends.* Just as he was about to propose it, Su Ruiqi interrupted.
"Brother, can I visit your place?" she asked.
Oh no. The "ancient family estate" and "reuniting with biological parents" were things he had made up. Should he hire actors to play along?
**[Ding! The host's lie has become reality. The host is indeed the son of an ancient noble family. Residence: Baige Shuiyuan Villa Complex. Father: Zhu Yuanjie. Phone number: … Mother: Cai Jie. Phone number: …]**
What? Lies turning into reality? Is this for real?
Zhu Mingzhang was stunned. Since he now had the address and contact details, should he go meet this "biological family"? Well, why not! If they were so wealthy, why did his biological parents abandon him? He was determined to demand answers.
"Brother, what's on your mind?" Su Ruiqi asked again.
"Oh, nothing. Let's go. I'll take you there. We only met yesterday, and I'm not that familiar with my biological parents either," he replied.
"It's okay, Brother. They're still your parents. You'll grow closer with time," she reassured him.
"Yeah."
The Baige Shuiyuan Villa Complex wasn't far from Hongtian Street—a mere fifteen-minute ride by motorcycle. As they approached, the area seemed deserted. Elegant European-style streetlights cast a soft blue glow, with bluish fireflies dancing in the air, adding a touch of magic to the scenery.
"Brother, slow down! This place is so beautiful!" Su Ruiqi exclaimed.
Zhu Mingzhang eased up on the throttle, though the roar of the bike remained wild and untamed.
Ahead lay a sprawling garden with a winding pebble pathway in the center. Parking the motorcycle, they proceeded on foot. From a distance, Zhu Mingzhang spotted a brightly lit villa. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he could vaguely make out two figures sitting inside, playing chess and sipping tea. Their features were indistinct from afar.
Although called a villa complex, the place was dominated by a single grand mansion surrounded by vast greenery, including a private pool and golf course.
Meanwhile, inside the villa—
On a luxurious leather sofa, a man and a woman were chatting casually. The man, dressed in a burgundy suit, was strikingly handsome, appearing in his twenties—the prime of his life. The woman, adorned in jewelry and light makeup, exuded an unparalleled elegance.
"Mom, how absurd is this! Life was going just fine, and now I suddenly have a 'wild' older brother?" the man said, maintaining his aristocratic composure even in private. Despite his irritation, it barely showed on his face.
"Lower your voice! Your father might hear!" the woman hissed, her expression animated. "Honestly, I think it's bizarre too. Yesterday, your father and I were walking when he suddenly spotted a boy who resembled him. It was like seeing a deity—he chased after him and asked for his name. That's when I learned your father had an affair before marrying me! Back then, the Zhu family faced a crisis and had to marry into our Cai family for stability. Your father had no choice but to part ways with that woman. Apparently, she contacted him later, claiming she was pregnant with his child!
"Your father dragged that boy to get a DNA test. Turns out, he really is your father's son from back then! There's no way around it now. That boy will be moving in sooner or later," she explained in a hushed tone.
"Understood, Mom," the man, Zhu Junze, replied calmly, though turmoil brewed within.
The Zhu family had four children, and he was the only son. Though he was the youngest, the family estate was bound to be his. But now, an older brother had appeared out of nowhere!
"Does he want to take my inheritance? Over my dead body!" Zhu Junze thought darkly. Even if his new brother didn't fight for it, their father would undoubtedly leave him something. And even a single grain was too much for Zhu Junze to tolerate.
