In the Name of the People: I Possess Qi Tongwei, and Hou Liangping Breaks Down

A gunshot rings out at Guying Ridge. Facing Qi Tongwei's corpse, Hou Liangping taunts him furiously: "You drove Chen Hai to his death, took bribes, and broke the law. You talked about defying fate, but nobody forced you. You're the most hypocritical of them all!"

Unexpectedly, the wooden cabin suddenly collapses, crushing Hou Liangping to death on the spot. When he wakes again, he has returned to thirty years earlier, reborn as ten-year-old Qi Tongwei.

Hou Liangping: "Even in Qi Tongwei's body, I can still get into Handong University, become a high-ranking official and rise through the ranks, staying honest and incorruptible!"

Soon, Hou Liangping is shocked to discover...

His parents make him work in the fields. Hou Liangping is furious: I grew up surrounded by luxury, and you're making me get up in the middle of the night to cut pigweed?

He has no money for college, and his parents want to kneel and beg for tuition. Hou Liangping refuses: I'm the former head of the Anti-Corruption Bureau. How could I grovel?

He's assigned to a judicial office in the mountains. Hou Liangping scoffs: So what if it's remote? I can still work my way up to a provincial-level post from here!

Then life beats him mercilessly.

Years later, a piece of news shocks Handong: Hou Liangping is suspected of serious violations of the law and is under investigation.
