When Lu Jinnian was eleven, he lost his mother and was sent to Xu family by his grandfather. At that time, Han Ruchu, Xu Wanli, and even the helpers wouldn't even glance at him, only Xu Jiamu didn't despise him and chose to accept his aloofness, treating him kindly and even trying to be friendly with him.
When the midnight alarm sounded, Xu Jiamu would receive a lot of red packets, each filled with a thick wad of cash. Any one of the red packets was filled with more money than the inheritance that Lu Jinnian’s mother had left for him.
But he had none.
At that time, Xu Jiamu had thrown all the red packets into the bin, saying a sentence that even till today was deeply etched in Lu Jinnian’s heart: If my brother doesn't have any, I don't want them either.
From then on, he had always treated Xu Jiamu as his brother.
In that instance, the assistant had no idea what Lu Jinnian was thinking.
