At 40, Lin Mo froze to death beneath an overpass. His greatest regret was that, on his twenty-fifth birthday, he hadn't begged his wife for one more minute before signing the divorce papers.
When he opened his eyes, he was back at a crossroads of fate. His wife's despairing gaze, the ventilator beside his daughter's hospital bed, and the mere fifty yuan left in his pocket all mocked his helplessness.

"I'll sacrifice a year of my life for three days of good health for my daughter!"

"I'll sacrifice ten years of restful sleep to see the future of this junk stock!"
Three days later, its price had soared a hundredfold!
His once-contemptuous brother-in-law knelt at his door, begging for guidance, while international financial sharks went wild over a single word from him.
Lin Mo held his sleeping daughter and looked at his wife making porridge for him in the kitchen. He smiled.
"I once lost the whole world. Now I'll place it all in your hands."
"This time, I'll love you with my life."
