chapter 1 Auntie, I don’t want to work hard anymore

"Auntie, I don't want to struggle anymore..."
Tacito Temple finished editing this message and sent it out to everyone.
His eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions.
Three years.
In order to repay a debt of gratitude, he had returned from the Dark World and married into the White family. In these three years, because he had no money, no power, and no job, he had suffered the sneers and ridicule of those around him.
Working like a beast of burden for the White family, he was either scolded or beaten. For the former Dark Emperor Tacito, he was completely fed up.
And now, he had finally made this difficult decision.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
At this moment, a series of text message alerts came in.
Tacito opened his phone and saw a number of new messages.
Businesswoman Rowling Lambert, "Tacito, Auntie has been waiting for you to say this. From today, eight oil fields in Ethiopia, Africa, under the Universal Group, will be transferred to your personal name. In addition, the Universal Group will give away 51% of its shares to you for free.
You will become the new chairman of the Universal Group, the actual controller. All industries and personnel of the Universal Group in China are at your disposal, without notifying the group."
Underground Aunt Rose, "Tacito, you finally made this decision! We, the Blood Prison, have been waiting for the return of our king for too long. I will immediately notify the China branch, you will become the king of the underground in China!"
Military Field Aunt Phoenix, "Little guy, you finally came to your senses! Instead of being a son-in-law, why not become the war god of the Military Field? Starting today, the China military will award you the title of 'King Temple'. From now on, you are the King Temple of China's Military Field!"
"..."
The content of these messages was absolutely shocking, but when Tacito saw them, he just nodded, showing no surprise or joy.
On the contrary, his eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions.
"Three years, I just wanted to repay the favor of that girl who saved my life with a steamed bun! But the cruelty of reality, the snobbishness of people, forced me to become the Dark Emperor again!"
Sigh!
Tacito exhaled a puff of smoke, and in the swirling smoke, a skull pattern emerged and slowly dissipated.
This made Tacito seem very mysterious and eerie at this moment.
Just then.
As soon as the cigarette butt in his hand fell to the ground, a scolding voice came from the villa behind him.
"Tacito, where the heck have you been again, come in and help us pour out the foot-washing water!"
Hearing this, Tacito's body stiffened, and a playful smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He casually crushed the cigarette butt under his foot and slowly walked into the villa.
He immediately saw his mother-in-law Esme Simpson and his wife Bella White sitting on the sofa, their feet just soaked.
As soon as Tacito walked in, Esme immediately scolded him like a cat that had seen a mouse.
"Hmph! You useless thing, you actually ran out to slack off again. You didn't mop the floor, you didn't wash the clothes, what is the White family feeding you for?"
"Quick, pour out the foot-washing water for us two!"
Tacito was already used to Esme's bad attitude. His face was unusually calm. He picked up two basins of water and headed for the bathroom.
Coward!
Seeing her husband like this, Bella couldn't help but feel sorry. She wanted to help Tacito argue back.
But before she could say anything, a breaking news report came on the TV.
"We are now broadcasting important news.
The latest news from the United States, the Universal Group, which controls 70% of the global economy, has officially announced that eight oil fields it recently acquired in Ethiopia, Africa, will be given to a Chinese youth for free.
In addition, 51% of the company's shares will also be given to the young man from China for free."
Hiss!
Upon hearing this news, both Esme and Bella gasped.
Eight oil fields?
That's worth tens of billions.
The most terrifying thing is the 51% stake in the Universal Group, which is absolutely beyond the measure of money.
Even globally, it's absolutely a super tycoon level existence.
Esme and Bella couldn't imagine what kind of Chinese youth could get so much wealth for free, it's simply unimaginable.
However, this was just the beginning.
"Breaking news, The China Military Department is holding a press conference. Starting today, there will be an additional military seat! Named---King Temple! From now on, we in China will have four military seats!"
What!
This piece of news made Esme and Bella jump again.
The military seat is the most respected general title in China's history. Each one is a formidable enemy, ruling one side, repelling foreign enemies, and is the idol of all Chinese people.
And now, there is one more, which shows the terrifying power of that King Temple.
At this moment.
Esme's face was filled with boundless envy. "One controls the world's largest economic conglomerate, the Universal Group, and becomes the new master of the world! One becomes the new generation of military seat, dominating one side and being respected by thousands of people! Sigh, he is King Temple. My son-in-law is also from the Temple family, but just a freeloader, it's really annoying to compare people..."
As she spoke, Esme's gaze fell on Tacito, who was holding the foot-washing water, and the anger on her face grew stronger.
"Hmph! Tacito, look at yourself! Both are from the Temple family, look at what others are and what you are! You're lazy and idle all day long, living off my daughter, what use does the White family have for you?"
Esme's words were extremely harsh.
Hearing this, Tacito was not angry, but the faint smile at the corner of his mouth became more playful.
He was looking forward to, if one day.
His sharp-tongued mother-in-law knew that the King Temple in her mouth was him, the richest man in her mouth was him, how wonderful her face would be.
Right now!
Tacito shook his head with a faint smile, then picked up the foot-washing water and headed for the bathroom.
Looking at Tacito's back, Bella's pretty face also showed a trace of complexity and unwillingness.
After all, they were both men.
That mysterious Chinese youth had already taken control of the behemoth Universal Group, and that King Temple had shocked China and become one of the four military seats.
And Tacito?
He's still living off his wife, living a hand-to-mouth existence.
The gap between them was simply too vast to compare.
Thinking of this.
Bella's heart was extremely restless, she shouted at Tacito irritably.
"Tacito, hurry up and pour out the foot-washing water, change your clothes, and accompany me to the class reunion later!"
Class reunion?
Tacito was slightly taken aback. In the three years since they got married, this was the first time Bella wanted to take him to a gathering.
"Okay!"
Tacito agreed very simply.
For three years!
He originally wanted to repay Bella for saving his life with a steamed bun with the identity of an ordinary person.
As a result, all he brought her was other people's ridicule and endless humiliation.
And now!
Tacito has once again become the king of that world, he will shut up those who laughed at Bella, and make those who humiliated Bella kneel down.
Right now, Tacito went into the bathroom, poured out the foot-washing water, and then went into his room.
Soon, he came out in casual clothes.
However, when Bella and Esme saw Tacito's clothes, their brows immediately furrowed.
"Tacito, are you deliberately trying to embarrass Bella? This set of clothes is from three years ago. It's like a rag. If you wear this out, the White family will be shamed by you."
"This waste, it's so embarrassing!"
Esme's face was full of disgust.
Even Bella was not happy at this moment, she frowned and advised.
"Tacito, this outfit is too old! You change into another one!"
Hmm?
Tacito heard the complaints from these two, he was slightly taken aback, then stretched out his arm and said in confusion.
"I think it's pretty good! This outfit is the most comfortable to wear, and I usually don't dare to wear it, only for important occasions it's suitable!"
What?
Tacito's words almost drove Esme and Bella crazy.
Does this kid have a problem with his brain?
He dares to say that he doesn't dare to wear a three-year-old rag on ordinary days, and that it's suitable for important occasions?
Immediately, Bella, with her face red with anger, snapped.
"Fine! If you want to wear it, wear it! If you embarrass yourself in front of all my old classmates, don't blame me. Hmph!"
After saying that, Bella angrily got up, picked up a handbag, and went outside.
Embarrassed?
Tacito touched his nose, the corner of his mouth curling up in a smile.
This outfit of his was the most outstanding work of Italian top fashion designer Pelle Catherine, who spent three years making it.
Global private customization, only one piece, market value in the billions.
At the time, there were countless global tycoons who were willing to spend a fortune to purchase it. However, they later heard that this piece of clothing was a gift that Catherine giving to herself. This news sent shockwaves through them, and they abandoned the idea.
At this moment, Tacito couldn't help but shake his head and then followed Bella as she walked towards the door.
"Where are we going now?"
"The Prosperous Age Club!" Bella didn't even glance at Tacito and walked straight out of the room.
The Prosperous Age Club?
Tacito was puzzled. If he remembered correctly, this should be a very small industry of the Universal Group in China, right?
