“You should just be fortunate that I am not my father. Do you know what he did when faced with a similar situation?” with no reply, she continued

In his previous life, Tang Shi was a cannon fodder. For a jerk, he even turned down a blind date his father arranged for him, but finally died in the hands of his lover and half-blooded elder brother.

Feeling regretful?

What would have happened if he hadn’t made that kind of choice from the very beginning?
