His life began in a small city in southwest China, and at thirty, buried under debt, he glimpsed fragments of the future.
Mu Yi, a left-behind child from a remote mountain village in the southwest, had his dignity crushed when his mother slapped him over a bottle of water. In middle school, he became the school bully with his fists, only to be expelled. At seventeen, he drifted to the coast and wore away his youth on an assembly line. He eventually became a branch manager, but his wife betrayed him and ran off with their money. His business failed, leaving him a million yuan in debt.
On the night of his thirtieth birthday, loan sharks drove him onto a rooftop. Suddenly, an unfamiliar scene flashed before his eyes:
His son’s tear-streaked face, three days in the future.
“Glimmer of Time” awakened: he could randomly foresee fragments of the future, at the cost of searing headaches and fate’s backlash.
Using scraps of information, he got his start selling off unsold goods, then risked everything in the cross-border business world, rising from a “crazy freight hauler” to a billionaire who kept his fortune out of sight.
Five years later, he quietly returned home to invest, only to see:
The thug who once forced him to his knees now driving a BMW and calling him “a penniless nobody.”
His ex-wife clinging to her new official boyfriend, sneering, “Stay away from me, you filthy beggar.”
His maternal uncle mocking him in public: “What future could a factory dog possibly have?”
Mu Yi smiled.
This time, he wouldn’t use his fists.
When the fragments he foresaw revealed his enemies’ hidden illicit funds, an official’s bribery ledger, and his uncle’s shoddy bridge construction…
A revenge that would use the future to put the past on trial began in silence.
“The stray dog you bullied for half his life has long since become a wolf that can glimpse fate.”
