When Chen Yu suddenly opened his eyes under the incandescent light of the hospital, memories flooded back to him, and he saw himself lying in a pool of blood in his previous life. After his rebirth, he is no longer the loser who is trampled upon by others, but a chess player holding the throat of his destiny.
He was once dust in the cracks of the city, ups and downs in the cold eyes of the workplace, struggling in the ruins of emotions. But now, those who once stepped on his head are entering his re-opened life script one after another. He must walk a tightrope between money and emotion, and choose between desire and conscience. Every counterattack comes with a price - rifts in family ties, dislocation of love, and collapse of trust, like undercurrents surging beneath your feet.
The city under the neon lights is like a giant beast, swallowing dreams and depravity. He travels through Vanity Fair and interweaves complex emotional networks with different women: there is the gentle waiting of his childhood sweetheart, the fatal temptation of the workplace goddess, and the resonance of the soul of a mysterious woman. They are the mirror of his destiny, reflecting his deepest desires and fears.
As he climbed to the top step by step, he found that the world was no longer what he knew. What I once thought was the truth was just an illusion piled up with lies. So, when reality becomes a dream from which one cannot wake up, how should humans choose?
