Chen Bai could tolerate everything else. After all, he had heard it since he was a child and had long since grown numb to it.
But for them to curse him to have no descendants—which meant cursing the Qian family to have no descendants—made Chen Bai furious for the first time, especially when he thought of his wonderful in-laws and wife.
When an honest man gets angry, he doesn't throw things or curse people. Chen Bai simply rushed back to the county seat in a silent rage and, from then on, never returned to the village unless absolutely necessary.
A few years later, Chen Bai finally had a daughter. When the Qian family matriarch suggested their granddaughter take his surname, "Chen," Chen Bai refused flatly.
He only said that since the child was born and raised in the Qian family, there was no reason for her to take an outsider's surname.
