My name is Ethan Yin.
From the moment I can remember, I seem to have carried an identity that's anything but honorable: an illegitimate child.
Ever since I became aware of the world, I knew I couldn't let anyone see through me or figure out what I was thinking.
Because those people, even when they're nice to me, always have their own motives.
Among those people is my mother, May Yan.
That's right, I can't even trust my own mother.
When I learned I had a half-sister from the same mother, I realized this: to my mother, children are just tools—tools for making money.
Because of me, my mother gets a big sum of money every year.
With that money, we've lived lavishly and comfortably in this small county town.
But she was never satisfied. Again and again, she brainwashed me, urging me to go back and claim my place in the family.
Claim my place in the family?
Heh, fine. After all these years, I'm sick of this little county town anyway.
Might as well go back and see what the Yin Family is really like!
Of course, before I go back, I have to put on a perfect disguise: the playboy.
Only by becoming that will I put their minds at ease.
Only if I act like I have no ambitions will they believe I'm someone easy to control.
Pretending?
Honestly, it's not that hard.
Besides, all these years, my mother has been raising me to be a playboy anyway.
If I hadn't read so many books and developed my own values, I probably really would have turned out that way.
