The life of Shen Yuan, the godfather of business, was a legend.
He spent half his life locked in a bitter struggle with his archenemy, finally driving him to the brink. But on the eve of victory, years of overwork caught up with him, and he died suddenly.
When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer Shen Yuan.
He had been reborn as Lin Mo, the illegitimate son of his archenemy’s Lin family, recently acknowledged and relentlessly bullied.
Falling from the clouds into hell, he found himself facing a business empire he had built with his own hands, now plagued by infighting; his biological son, Shen Che, isolated and surrounded by predators; and his “new” family, who regarded him as an insect and met him with nothing but malice.
Shen Yuan smiled.
If fate had given him the hands of his enemies, he would use them to play a game unlike any other.
He went undercover in the den of tigers and wolves, acting as the godfather while living under the name Lin Mo.
As the mysterious “Mr. Guoqi,” he guided his son Shen Che from afar, helping him maneuver through business wars, clear away obstacles, and pave his path to the throne.
He would also pry apart the foundations of the Lin family with his own hands, turning everything his enemies had into nourishment for his son’s growth.
But as the game deepened, danger lurked at every turn.
His son’s dependence and probing questions, his archenemy’s scrutiny and attempts to use him, the shackles and secrets of his identity… all kept him walking on thin ice.
When father and son face off from afar across the negotiating table,
when the true identity of “Mr. Guoqi” teeters on the brink of exposure,
where will this dangerous dance, performed alone on the edge of a blade, lead?
This is an extreme battle of business wits, and a father’s love seeking redemption across the boundary between life and death.
Can he carve out a way to survive between destruction and rebirth, for his son and for himself?
