Siheyuan: I Rejected Qin Huairu, and She Went Crazy with Regret

Lin Xiao transmigrates to 1962 and becomes the youngest engineer at a steel mill.

From the start, he has to deal with the ugly faces of the neighborhood's birds: the Jia family breaks off their engagement because he's poor, Yi Zhonghai uses moral pressure to force him to donate, and Silly Zhu throws his weight around to bully him.

Lin Xiao laughs. Take on someone else's mess? Play the philanthropist? Not a chance!

He awakens a Fortune Plundering System: the more jealous his neighbors are, the richer the rewards!

While the whole flock is still scheming over a pound of cornmeal until they're at each other's throats, Lin Xiao is already eating braised pork at every meal and living the good life.

While Yi Zhonghai is still worrying about who will care for him in his old age, Lin Xiao has already solved a national-level technical challenge and been personally received by a top leader, with guards standing watch!

Watch Lin Xiao rise step by step, from engineer to a peerless pillar of the nation.

Late one night, Qin Huairu begs on her knees: "Lin Xiao, I regret it. Just let me into your home. I'll even be your housekeeper!"

Lou Xiao'e: "Lin Xiao is the real man. Xu Damao, get lost!"

The whole flock breaks down in tears: If only we'd clung to his coattails back then, things wouldn't have come to this!
