In 2025, after property prices have been slashed in half, Lu Chen is hit by a truck on a rainy night while meeting a client. As he hovers on the brink of death, there is only one thing he regrets:
“If I could do it all over again… I’d never be so impatient with that annoying little tagalong of a sister…”
When he opens his eyes again...
The calendar on the wall shows a huge [Year 200]! He’s shrunk down to ten years old, and sitting beside him is his deskmate, Lu Xi, the half-sister with pigtails whom he resented his whole life!
In his previous life, she died beneath the wheels of a car at eighteen, becoming the greatest pain of his life;
In this life, she’s ten, innocent and carefree, a priceless treasure he’s incredibly lucky to have found!
“In this life, I’m done being a secondhand property dealer. If I’m going to be anyone’s money-printing machine, it’ll be hers alone!”
[Spoiling His Little Sister, Day by Day]:
Pocket money? He’ll spend it all stocking up on AD calcium milk and fried skewers from street stalls!
Someone mocks her? Big brother will use grown-up tricks to make the little brat cry and apologize!
She wants to learn to paint? He’ll sign her up for the most expensive class at the youth center! She wants books? He’ll buy out the Xinhua Bookstore!
She insists on holding her brother’s hand to sleep? Approved! Wants him to be her human body pillow? He’s only too happy to oblige!
[Making Money in 2000]:
He’ll bet all his New Year’s money on Tencent’s original shares!
He’ll persuade his parents to take out a loan to buy “wasteland in the suburbs” (the future CBD)!
He’ll make his first fortune reselling Xiaobawang game cartridges!
