Unlike Nie Zhao, who was despised by his father from a young age and cast off to Europe, the Nie family’s Second Master, Nie Yao, grew up surrounded by the care and expectations of his parents. Because he was bright from childhood, Nie Rong even brought him along to work.
Although Nie Rong repeatedly declared that the only heir to the Nie family would be Nie Zhao—making it seem as if he doted on him—in reality, the assets he gave to Nie Zhao were merely the foundation laid by Han Yuzhu. His own personal wealth was reserved entirely for Nie Yao.
Nie Yao had been Nie Rong’s pride and joy since childhood. He never lacked love or money, and with Nie Rong’s personal guidance and intentional cultivation, he grew up to be a refined, well-mannered young gentleman, despite his pampered upbringing. In the glittering, temptation-filled world of Hong Kong, the twenty-six or twenty-seven-year-old had never once been linked to a scandal.
