Mc is stupid pushover. Just let the old man die. No need to go all these troubles just to prove something to someone irrelevant
Some ppl actually don't have the heart to forget their parents no matter how harsh they are, mc is in a place where he feels useless and worthless, that call from his mom asking for help will prove that he actually didn't lead a meaningless life after all, and yes alot of ppl, do want to regain a good relationship with their parents, you call him an irrelevant person, but he literally impacted him heavily to the point that mc is feared by just his face and seeking validation from him which is a normal thing someone would want from their father, it isn't even about feeling prideful mc clearly still wants to have a good relationship with him, which is why the dad getting disappointed with him even after not seeing him for years affected mc deeply, cutting ties doesn't heal nothing, and not every bottom needs to have some arrogant boss bitch personality, mc is a pushover and weak like many other ppl irl, and that's fine.










I occasionally think of this manhua like it's my ex crush I could never have
