1988: The Ruthless Road to Fortune, and Mothers-in-Law Everywhere

In his previous life, Gao Lanling slew the village bully and was sentenced to death by firing squad. He spent his whole life in misery.

Reborn in 1988 with the power to control space, his gaze turned cold. He had only one thought:

Make money, seize power, avoid love, and never play the saint.

Be neither good nor evil, just ruthless.

Borrow money from a widow and repay it in full;

Choose the best wife, have the best children, and keep romance out of it;

Raise an illegitimate child, fulfill every legal obligation, but offer not a shred of affection;

Take on the village bully without bloodshed or breaking the law, and use the rules to destroy him.

People laugh at him for being heartless. He just thinks they’re fools.

In this life,

he has a black heart, a handsome face, steady hands, a sharp tongue, and firm principles.

He’ll be unscrupulous without crossing the line, self-serving without breaking the law,

following a path that forsakes all ties and looks only to money:

a ruthless road to wealth.
