Rise of the God Emperor

Didn't expect something like this to happen, it's not like usual.

Zhao Tuo, although often taught Zhao Ma lessons, he was never this rude.

But today is a little different, somehow.

Even after beating his second son, his expression did not change.

Without showing any emotion, other than anger.

"Dad, why are you doing this to me?!" Zhao Ma shouted at him, annoyed.

While holding his stomach, using both hands.

Luckily there were no serious injuries, except bruises.

This can be cured just by doing light treatment.

"Why do you ask? Haven't I told you many times not to bother your little sister anymore, but..." Zhao Tuo's eyes turned cold, before continuing his words. "You kept doing it, until I got sick of you."

Those were the cruelest words he had ever said as a father.

But this will not bring regret, other than gratitude.

In the future, Zhao Ma will be a jerk.

He shouldn't be in the Zhao family, always bothering people.

"Damn old man...!" Anger after anger continued to rise in Zhao Ma's heart.

He could no longer harbor jealousy in his heart, considering that his little sister was always given more attention.

Before Zhao Jia was born, he was the most beloved person, no one dared to bully him.

Even his eldest brother never reprimanded him.

Since then, he considers his status in the family to be the highest.

Believing that all this would last forever but, something he never expected happened to him.

His mother, Zhao Tuo's wife, announced her pregnancy.

In public, after checking her condition with a doctor.

Didn't expect the child she was carrying to be a girl, happy.

But she didn't realize that after Zhao Jia was born, an illness would attack her.

It's cancer.

Zhao Tuo, who realized this, became extremely panicked.

Realizing that this disease cannot possibly be cured, unless God wills it.

But he didn't give up, continued to call famous doctors from all over the world, just to be able to cure his beloved wife.

Unfortunately fate said otherwise, and his wife died.

It happened when Zhao Jia was 8 years old.

And the saddest thing is that she died on the exact date her daughter was born.

Also her birthday, her 8th.

"..."

Zhao Jia, she did not waste this opportunity.

Seeing Zhao Ma lying on the floor, immediately approached her teddy bear.

Even though was shocked by her father's actions just now, she didn't care.

In fact she was happy, happy to see her second brother getting a much worse lesson.

Zhao Peng, didn't know whether to act again as his protector or not.

His current feeling was uncomfortable, as if telling him not to defend him.

Or his father would punish him, much worse.

In the end all he could do was help him up, holding his shoulders.

Without saying a word, remain silent.

While turning towards his father, seeing how scary the atmosphere around him was.

"...are my previous lessons still not enough?" Zhao Tuo said coldly, hearing his impolite words.

His heart, which was almost calm at first, burned again, becoming increasingly irritated.

Zhao Ma should have just kept quiet, that way he could get out of a situation that would tarnish his image.

But he chose the wrong path, which he could never correct.

'T-This is serious...!' Zhao Ma panicked inside, realizing his father was going to do something bad to him.

He had seen this look many times, which he always showed to the workers at the zhao residence.

Usually they would be fired, forced to leave this place.

And that gaze was now fixed on him.

Not knowing what would happen if he was kicked out, not even his older brother would be able to help him.

Finally he chose the safe path, namely asking for forgiveness.

Immediately, he removed his hand from Zhao Peng's shoulder.

Then bow, like a dog.

"Please forgive me, Dad! I was the one who was wrong!"

"I promise I won't do it again, and will never bully my sister again!"

Zhao Ma, never stopped begging.

He finally realized what fear was, after his mother's death.

This was the second time he felt scared, about something like this.

Imagining when he was homeless, on the streets.

Tears started to flow from his face, unknowingly coming out.

Don't know why, maybe because he was afraid?

Certain.

Zhao Peng and Zhao Jia could only gape at something they did not expect to happen.

Especially Zhao Peng, he was the one who understood his true nature best.

'Second brother...'

Feelings of pity for him reappeared.

Seeing his whole body trembling, like an animal ready to be slaughtered at any time.

Without thinking, Zhao Peng chose to follow his course of action.

Bending his whole body under the floor, without shame.

"Father, please give second brother a chance."

"..." Zhao Tuo, didn't know how to react.

The person who subdues his body now, in order to defend his own younger brother, is the successor, and has already been determined.

But he did something that really disappointed him.

Because his younger brother had disgraced his entire family, being incompetent.

Zhao Tuo, he was actually quite biased towards his first son, like Zhao Jia.

But because he was the first son, his education was much stricter.

Zhao Peng, since childhood, had been told to study hard.

And all his efforts have now paid off, becoming so much more talented that even his younger brother is no match for him.

That is for sure.

But there was a trace of guilt in his heart, regret for having spoiled Zhao Ma since childhood.

If he had educated him like Zhao Peng at that time, things would definitely not have turned out like this.

Unfortunately, that will never happen again.

"Hah..." Zhao Tuo, he took a deep breath.

Trying not to get too caught up in his anger, not wanting control over his emotions to just slip away.

If he got even one word wrong, it would be the end for his first son.

"I'll give you one chance, but remember from today there will be no more money for you."

Zhao Ma didn't know whether to feel happy or sad, hearing that all his pocket money would no longer be given to him from today onwards.

'Tch, why is it like this...' he asked himself while making a lifeless face.

Luckily he was still bowing, without having to show his current expression.

Otherwise he would be beaten again by his father.

This would be something that Zhao Tuo would regret, forgiving his useless son.

Although Zhao Ma doesn't plan to take revenge at the moment, it will happen in the future.

Where when he will meet his future wife. A bitch.

She was also the one who incited him to seize his family's property, for her own sake.

The reason Zhao Ma likes Zhao Shulian is because she is beautiful.

In his eyes, Zhao Shulian was his type, no matter if she was a bitch.

As long as it's interesting, it's fine.
