Ye Qing remembered that in his previous life, Zuo Mengyao was famous for her outstanding looks and had a lot of suitors. For example, the son of Yangzhou's richest merchant, Li Zhijun, was one of Zuo Mengyao's suitors.

Because he was close to Zuo Mengyao, Li Zhijun had come looking for trouble with him more than once.

However, these obstructions and troubles were not worth mentioning when compared to the grievous news that came from his family.

That grievous news was that his mother, Huang Wen, was assassinated. The WenRong Chamber of Commerce, which spanned across two Guangdong Province, quickly fell apart because of the death of his mother, who was the head of the Chamber of Commerce.

In his previous life, he believed that wealth and power were everything. Without these things, he wouldn't be able to make the woman he loved happy.

Especially after he lost his mother, he compared himself with Zuo Mengyao's pursuers, feeling even more inferior.

Therefore, at that time, for her happiness, he quietly left her side, giving her Zuo Mengyao.

He left nothing behind, not even a farewell.

He quietly disappeared from Zuo Mengyao's field of vision until two years later, when he had already become a rogue and Zhong Hui with his brother Zhong Hui had run to Yangzhou. Only then did he learn that Zuo Mengyao and Li Zhijun were related, and that he had become a boy.

This news eventually caused him, who had become a grass bandit, to experience a few more years of ups and downs, and even witnessed his brother Zhong Hui's change in temperament after dying because of him.

He felt that the heaven and earth owed him, and he was even more resentful towards Zuo Mengyao for not coming to see him all those years ago, thinking that she had betrayed him.

In the end, when he was 30 years old and met Duan Ling Tian in the Imperial City, everything that happened afterwards would happen.

And this was his past sin.
