At the age of 45, Chen Fan died in a rented apartment in subzero temperatures, carrying with him regret and resentment. When he opened his eyes again, he had miraculously returned to the summer of 1998, just after the college entrance exams: the turning point that had changed his fate. Faced with his ex-wife Liu Mei humiliating him in public and his childhood friend Wang Hao secretly sabotaging him, he cut off those toxic ties for good and tore away their hypocritical masks with ruthless resolve. Reborn, he held the key to the next twenty years of upheaval: the World Cup's dark horses, the stock market frenzy, the rise of the internet, the golden age of real estate... He would avoid every pitfall he had stumbled into in his previous life and proceed carefully at every step; every opportunity he had missed, he would seize this time. The flames of revenge burned in his heart, and his determination to protect his family was etched into his bones. Starting with a comeback at the post-exam farewell banquet, he would swim against the tide of the times, using his wits and courage to crush his enemies beneath his feet and rewrite the course of his life!
