On the day I was reborn, my own mother demanded that I hand over 200 million to bail out her gambling-addict brother.
This time, I smiled and handed her the keys to an entire sanatorium. "Mom, it's your turn to check in!"
In my previous life, I built my fortune from nothing and amassed a net worth of two billion, only to be drained dry the night before my company went public by my own mother and her parasitic family.
The company went bankrupt, my hair turned white, and in the end, an "accident" claimed my life.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the celebration banquet for our Series B funding round. My mother raised her glass, her face full of affection. "Good boy, give your uncle 200 million to bail him out."
I splashed champagne all over her in front of everyone. "Bail him out? Sure. Sign this critical condition notice first."
In this life, I put my shares in an offshore trust ahead of time and used their greed to set a trap:
• I gave my mother an unlimited Centurion Black Card. Once she maxed it out, I sent her to the hell of compounding interest.
• I helped my uncle land a 20-billion construction project, made him pay a 20-million deposit out of his own pocket, then drove him to flee to Myanmar with a single environmental order.
• I set up a livestreaming studio for my aunt, a pyramid-scheme peddler, and personally hit the button to send the police in.
• At my grandmother's 80th birthday, I livestreamed the whole family trying to force my hand. The story topped the trending searches in three hours, and the ancestral hall was reduced to rubble.
You use family ties to blackmail me? I'll make sure you rot in prison!
You pressure me with filial duty? I'll personally send you to an asylum!
When every debt of blood had been settled, I stood at the Nasdaq opening bell platform and announced to the world:
"Like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, I live for myself!"
The sentence "for your own good" expresses the feelings of many people.
