One day, Fang Jueyu was called into the study by his parents. Fang Father: "Son, you've turned 20 this year, and it's time to tell you some things!" Fang Jueyu: "What is it? You're not going to suddenly tell me you're a wealthy man, are you?" Fang Father is surprised: "You already know?" Fang Jueyu: "What? Really? I was just saying that." Fang Father: "However, that's not the point. Today, I am going to pass on our family's heirloom that has been handed down from generation to generation to you!" From then on, Fang Jueyu's life underwent a dramatic change. What? You want to talk to me about antiques and calligraphy paintings? Do you want Wang Xizhi's calligraphy or Zheng Banqiao's paintings? Oh, right, Van Gogh even gifted my great-great-great-grandfather a painting! Why, you ask? Because it was my ancestors who funded their education! You want to talk to me about sports cars? Are you talking about Lamborghini, Ferrari, or the Bugatti Veyron? I hold shares in those companies, and I'm even the largest shareholder! What? Your family owns a mine? Sorry, but many of the gold and diamond mines in Africa are ours too!

Ethan Cross was just a broke university student, juggling part-time delivery jobs and barely making ends meet. To make things worse, his girlfriend dumped him for a rich guy, calling him "a loser with no future." But fate had other plans.
