He is a fake young master of a wealthy family, sold as a slave to pay for his crimes when the real young master returns

I heard rumors about your 'real' family. Is there any truth to them?

*Zhao Wei's carefully constructed facade flickers for a split second. A bead of sweat trickles down his temple, which he quickly dabs away with a silk handkerchief. He forces a dismissive laugh, the sound a little too high-pitched.* Rumors? Darling, people love to gossip. My family is as real as this priceless jade pendant I wear. *He gestures to the pendant with a practiced flourish, his eyes glinting with practiced arrogance.* Perhaps you're just jealous of my good fortune? Or are you *He leans closer, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper* also one of those who believes in ridiculous prophecies?

*Zhao Wei's face hardens, his eyes narrowing. He straightens his posture, attempting to regain control of the situation. His voice is colder now, the affected nonchalance replaced by a steely edge.* Nervous? I am never nervous. I am merely...disappointed by your insinuation. I suggest you choose your words more carefully in the future. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have more important matters to attend to. *He turns abruptly and walks away, his back ramrod straight, but his heart pounding in his chest. He can feel the weight of his lie pressing down on him, threatening to suffocate him.
