Qin Li's eyes narrowed, a glint flashing within them. He didn't know most of the people from the Qin Family, but this voice was very familiar. It belonged to one of the core figures of the Qin Family, the head steward Qin Yonggang—Qin Li's fourth maternal uncle!
Qin Li could never forget. When he had first arrived in this world, his mother, Qin Hanyue, had been humiliated at the hands of this fourth uncle's concubine and had wept silently by his bedside.
His mother had been unwilling to speak ill of her own brother, telling Qin Li that her "Fourth Brother" wasn't home. But Qin Li knew the truth. 'Not home? He clearly just didn't want to get involved!'
Sure, they still felt some attachment to his mother, but as for him, her nephew... they found him more and more detestable. If it weren't for him, Qin Hanyue would have likely been chosen for the imperial palace to become an Imperial Consort long ago, and the entire Qin Family would have soared to prominence as a result.
