Ever since Jiang Yan could remember, he had been trapped in a very big house.
The house was empty. Apart from the servants who were busy working like machines, there were only him and a woman.
He was not allowed to step out of the door. There was always a group of people in black clothes standing guard outside the door.
The woman's name is Nan Zhiyi.
Nan Zhiyi is sometimes gentle and sometimes crazy.
When he gets mad, he'll beat and scold Xiao Jiangyan, calling him a bastard or a beast?
When fighting, maybe there are bruises, or maybe the arm is scratched by a knife?
When she is gentle, she will cook food for Xiao Jiangyan, although every time Xiao Jiangyan eats it, he will be called to the family doctor for food poisoning, or his condition will be so serious that he will be sent to the hospital.
But next time, little Jiang Yan will still finish the food happily.
Because that was his mother, a gentle mother.
Jiang Yan has been very smart since he was a child. He thinks that just like in the cartoon, his mother is just controlled by the monster and she loves him.
Occasionally, a man would appear and say his name was Jiang Hanzhang and that he was little Jiang Yan’s father.
When little Jiang Yan just learned to speak, Jiang Hanzhang affectionately called him son, but little Jiang Yan innocently and ignorantly shook his head and said, "Dad, I don't want to call you son. Mom said I can call you beast or bastard."
When Nan Zhiyi heard this, she smiled coldly: "Jiang Hanzhang, is your son very smart?"
Jiang Hanzhang's expression changed instantly: "Nan Zhiyi, he is also your son, our son."
Nan Zhiyi, however, dismissed it: "He is not. He only deserves to be called these names. Bastard, little beast, how suitable are they for him?"
Jiang Hanzhang grabbed Nan Zhiyi and left little Jiang Yan's sight.
From then on, Jiang Yan had a new name - Jiang Yan.
Nan Zhiyi said to him viciously, "I gave you a nice name, but it means disgusting. You really make me sick."
Little Jiang Yan grew up in such a difficult situation, surrounded by abuse and harm, until he was six years old.
Being beaten, scolded, burned and scratched became a normal part of his life.
Nan Zhiyi even deprived him of the right to sit at the table to eat, and would just casually throw a plate at him at the table during meal times.
The servants couldn't bear to see this and would secretly give the children medicine and food.
The days passed in agony, one after another. One day, Jiang Yan's nanny handed him a small piece of cake.
The nanny said, "Ayan, today is your birthday. Here is the birthday cake. I wish our Ayan peace and prosperity for all the years to come."
At this time, a man shouted loudly outside the door, but soon there was no sound.
The nanny handed the small cake to little Jiang Yan and hurriedly whispered, "Go back to your room quickly."
When Nan Zhiyi heard the voice, she instantly became extremely excited and rushed to the door eagerly, but was stopped by the bodyguards outside.
Xiao Jiangyan was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. He squatted in the corner of the living room holding the small cake.
Nan Zhiyi ran from the door to the second floor in a panic. After a while, she ran down crying and hurriedly picked up her phone to call Jiang Hanzhang: "Jiang Hanzhang, you let Jingchu go, otherwise..."
Nan Zhiyi saw Jiang Yan in the corner and said viciously, "Otherwise, I will die with Jiang Yan in my arms."
Not knowing what Jiang Hanzhang said, Nan Zhiyi went to the kitchen and then sat on the sofa crying.
Hearing the sound of a car outside the door, Nan Zhiyi quickly grabbed the knife she had just taken out of the kitchen and pressed it hard against Xiao Jiang Yan's neck.
Little Jiang Yan didn't struggle at all and stayed quietly in Nan Zhiyi's arms.
Jiang Hanzhang shouted angrily, "What are you doing? Nan Zhiyi, Ayan is also your son, isn't he?"
Nan Zhiyi laughed crazily: "My son? If you hadn't threatened me with Brother Jingchu, would I have married you? Would I have given birth to this bastard?"
Little Jiang Yan looked calmly at the cake that was kicked to the ground by Nan Zhiyi. His parents' quarrel was in his ears, but he didn't hear a word.
However, when Nan Zhiyi heard Jiang Hanzhang say he wanted to kill Nan Jingchu, everything got out of control.
At the moment when Jiang Hanzhang was approaching step by step, Nan Zhiyi let go of little Jiang Yan. She suddenly went crazy, grabbed the hilt of the knife with both hands, and stabbed it into Jiang Hanzhang's heart.
Blood splattered everywhere, splashing all over little Jiang Yan's face. Jiang Hanzhang fell to the ground. Little Jiang Yan stared at the scene in a daze, his mind blank.
The next second, the bodyguard at the door rushed in, Nan Zhiyi rushed towards the corner, and Xiao Jiangyan only felt a blood-red scene in front of his eyes.
When he regained consciousness, Jiang Yan found a strange old man sitting beside the bed.
The old man stroked his head lovingly and said with a guilty look, "Son, I'm sorry that Grandpa couldn't take good care of you. From now on, you will live with Grandpa, okay?"
Jiang Yan didn't say anything. To him, everything was gray. It was the same no matter where he was. There was no difference.
From that day on, no one mentioned his parents again.
He can go out normally, eat normally, someone will prepare new clothes for him, and no one will even beat or scold him anymore!
Only occasionally would his grandfather take him to meet different people. Jiang Yan did not resist. Although he knew that these people were doctors, as long as his grandfather liked them, it was fine.
Grandpa said he wanted to change his name, and that was the first time Jiang Yan refused: "I'll just be called Jiang Yan."
The old man stubbornly handed him a whole page of names, but Jiang Yan didn't choose any. The two of them remained in a stalemate in the old man's study for a long time.
Jiang Yan felt that being disgusted was good. The disgusting disgust was what she wanted. She gave birth to him but hated him. He didn't understand, but wanted to remember it.
Jiang Yan looked at Grandpa Jiang and repeated firmly, "Grandpa, I won't change."
Perhaps it was because of this word "Grandpa" that Grandpa Jiang finally understood what Jiang Yan wanted.
Since Jiang Yan turned sixteen, Grandpa Jiang would take Jiang Yan to the company to study during all his holidays.
Grandpa Jiang's brothers were fed up with it. The company was in chaos due to intrigue and they even drugged Grandpa Jiang.
After all, once Grandpa Jiang died, only Jiang Yan, a little bastard, was left. Isn't he difficult to control?
Grandpa Jiang fell down just like that, and Jiang Yan was also kidnapped. It was at this time that Kuang Yecheng met Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan fell on the side of the road, covered in wounds, and no one knew what he had been through.
Later, the Jiang family members died, became disabled, and those who survived were so scared that they moved out of Kyoto and transferred all the shares of the Jiang family to Jiang Yan and Old Master Jiang.
From then on, everyone thought that Jiang Yan of the Jiang family was a mad dog who would not even let his own family members go and would bite anyone he caught.
It was precisely this young man who helped the Jiang family to gain a firm foothold and even move to a higher level.
It was also that year that Jiang Yan began investigating Nan Zhiyi.
