章節 1: Chapter 1 : Sent away
On the main road.
A dozen guards escorted several carriages and walking forward. Inside the largest carriage, a 5-6 years old child sat grandly inside.
"Young Master is too pitiful. How could Master be so heartless?"
"Young Master is still the Master's son ah! Master... actually decided to send Young Master away to that kind of place."
"Young Master is only 6 years old ah! He is so young and now get sent to such a remote place, what to do ah?!"
"Nothing can be done about it, the Young Master is a waste without any magical attribution. If not for Young Master doesn't live up to expectation, the Master won't have to make such decision."
"Why is Young Master a waste? The Master and Madam's talents are very good ah!"
"Young Master is too unlucky."
"The Young Master has an engagement with the Young Master from the Zhuang family ah! I heard that Zhuang Young Master was tested as a magician with 7 magical properties."

Qi Shaorong slowly raised the corner of his mouth, when he heard the pitiful cries and discussion from the two maids. He tilted his head and leaned at the side of the carriage, helplessly shaking his head.
Why did these two women cried?
Were they sympathizing him, or lamenting about their own fate?
Following someone unfavored like him and get sent away together, their future was bleak.
Qi Shaorong let the curtains down, and closed his eyes.
Qi Shaorong sighed, in his past life, he was born in a family famous with chinese medicine. Unfortunately, in the age where Western medicines were popular, the hold of Traditional Chinese medicine practices was getting wobbly. Later, the Western medicines developed to the point where doctors are innocent if they killed the patients, while Traditional Chinese medicine doctors are powerless if they can't save the patients. A lot of patients were helpless, and have no alternatives. They only choose Traditional Chinese medicine as the last straw, once Traditional Chinese medicine couldn't save them, they would curse out that Traditional Chinese medicineis a quack.
His grandfather has been a Traditional Chinese medicine doctor all his life, so he was often cynical when he saw the decline of Traditional Chinese medicine. Ever since Qi Shaorong was young, his grandfather devoted countless care in him. He wanted Qi Shaorong to revive Traditional Chinese medicine as his mission, and commit his life to expand traditional chinese medicine.
At 2 years old, Qi Shaorong was at the time where he should be eating baby food but he was forced to recite various kind of Traditional Chinese medicine books instead. Every time he dripped his baby food on the medical books, his strict-eyed grandfather would hit Qi Shaorong palms.
Other people's child at 5-6 years old would be still playing with sand, while Qi Shaorong was already rolling in a pile of chinese medicine. Every time he made a mistake in the medicine list, or recite the wrong thing in the medical books, his ever strict conservative grandfather would make an ugly face like Qi Shaorong has caused the death of a patient. His grandfather would punish him in various ways, so under all kinds of inhuman torture, Qi Shaorong became a master in Traditional Chinese medicine field by the age of 16 years old.
At 17 years old, with a 'outward devotion but inner opposition' thinking, Qi Shaorong enrolled himself into a western medical college and almost caused his one-minded Traditional Chinese medicine grandfather to go mad with anger. Qi Shaorong used one sentence 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated' and forcefully shut his grandfather's mouth.
After graduation, the old man repeatedly ordered Qi Shaorong to be a Traditional Chinese medicine doctor. However, Qi Shaorong at that time has just reached a late rebellious period so he entered a plastic surgery hospital instead and became a well-known cosmetic surgeon. He has a high talent in cosmetic surgery and has 'shaped' out a lot of stunning beauty. After his reputation was widely spread, many stars privately looked for him to do plastic surgery.
The old man learned that he has become a plastic surgeon, became so angered that he was directly sent into the hospital. When Qi Shaorong went to the hospital to visit him, the old man scolded Qi Shaorong in extreme anger for 3 hours straight. According to the nurse who was in-charge of the old man, before he came over, the old man looked like he was about to stop breathing. Once Qi Shaorong came over, the old man looked like he took a dose of stimulant; suddenly full of vigor. One can't help but said that it is a miracle.
And so, with the old man repeatedly threatened him, Qi Shaorong finally gave up on the world of plastic surgery. However, he still couldn't do as the old man wanted to become an orthodox Chinese medicine.
He launched a cosmetic brand and sold a variety of cosmetics. The cosmetic line that Qi Shaorong sold was widely accepted and received positive evaluations.
Qi Shaorong's net worth rapidly rose in a very short period, the influential financial magazines in the country labelled him as a rising star in the business community.
After the brand paved the road, fake product ran rampant.
Qi Shaorong remembered the last part of his past life. An angry woman smashed a pile of cosmetics on him, and called him someone who lacked morality for selling fake and shoddy products, causing her face to be disfigured. He also remembered that woman's face was red and swollen, her face was full of pus.
The corner of Qi Shaorong's eyes glimpsed at the cosmetics thrown on the floor; the trademark was clearly wrong, this woman has bought fake goods.
This idiot has bought fake goods, she should find the person who sold her the fakes ah! He is innocent.
But, not waiting for him to explain, the woman threw a bottle of sulfuric acid at him.
Qi Shaorong vaguely remembered that kind of pain that carved into his bones. The sulfuric acid corroded his face and neck.
Qi Shaorong took a deep breath. The old man said it before, Qi Shaorong will regret it sooner or later if he doesn't take up Traditional Chinese medicine field. Just that, Qi Shaorong has already reincarnated before he has the time to regret.
In this lifetime, Qi Shaorong was already conscious when he was in his mother's stomach. He was not born yet, but Qi Shaorong knew that he was reborn in a magical world, where magical power and fighting spirits existed. He also became a wealthy second generation, and his father is a marquis. Although his mother was a concubine, her position was not bad. Qi Shaorong thought things would change for the better for him this time, but unfortunately he has yet to enjoy being a second generation who would eat and enjoy all day, he was tested as a waste without magical talent and was swept out of the house.
To be able to reborn in such a magical world, but ended up as a waste. He can't help but felt that it is a tragedy.
However... Qi Shaorong took out a small mirror and looked at his face. Look at this little face, it's very handsome ah! If this was his past life, someone would have already approached him for casting.
