“Pardon me. My humble surname is Qiao, my given name Qingkan, with Qing as in ‘clear and elegant’ and Kan as in ‘courteous and composed.’ My courtesy name is Mingshan. You’ve mistaken me for someone else! I won’t keep you. Goodbye.”
“Sheng’er, I’m your mother!”
“Brother Sheng, I’m your third younger brother!”
“Big Brother, I’m your fourth younger sister!”
“Wretch, I’m your father!”
“Second Brother!”
Looking at the person walking toward him, he blurted out, “Are you me?”
The stranger was speechless: “…”
The first thing the Republican-era gentleman did after waking up: a chaotic case of mistaking everyone for family.
The Republican-era gentleman declared that he recognized none of his relatives. He’d just work hard, do his best to survive, make money, make more money, and then live freely…
But why had a “wolf” set its sights on him? And why did this wolf look so familiar?
Mother: My precious boy is home!
Father: The wretch has changed his ways!
Third brother: Someone’s stolen Brother Sheng’s soul!
Fourth sister: Big Brother has changed so much!
Only the second brother, who knew the truth: Fake! Fake! Fake! Fake!
“Second Brother, let me explain!”
The second brother pinned him against a wall and demanded, “Who did you say was yours?”
“My money?”
“You’re mine!”
The Republican-era gentleman worked hard and diligently, but his scheming boss kept ruthlessly exploiting him!
Boss: “Have you ever seen an employer wait on their assistant?”
The Republican-era gentleman: “Mine does (^∪^)”
Wait a second.
“What if I’m not from this era?”
“But you’re here now! So you can only stay by my side!”
“What if I suddenly disappear, ”
“Qiao Qingkan, don’t say that!”
This is the story of a Republican-era gentleman who fell in love halfway through starting a business.
