Bruh. MC better do something about all those people who controlling his current and future life.
If not, make MC to stop smile or be cold/indifferent to anyone after he keep getting dragged in bullshts. For example, his personality make everyone kinda like him or people getting used to his warm attitude. Then, afrer ML mistake or Imperial family mistake trying to sht on MC, MC stopped smiling and shts. That's would be good revenge tbh.
