Luo Xiuqiao’s Professional Life

Luo Xiuqiao is an ordinary graduate from a second-tier university. Full of ambition, he comes alone to Haicheng, a top-tier city, only to discover that reality is far harsher than he imagined. One job interview after another ends in failure, and more than a hundred resumes vanish without a response. The mounting pressure of rent and daily expenses gradually turns his confidence into anxiety, making him so sensitive that he begins to doubt himself. Messages in his class chat about classmates landing high-paying jobs only highlight the stark contrast with his own situation, driving him nearly to a mental breakdown. After three months without success, Luo Xiuqiao finally falls ill in his cramped, dim rental room. Fever and a splitting headache engulf him. In his daze, he seems to plunge into an endless black hole, his consciousness dissolving. Deep within it, he sees an ancient, familiar tome, and his memories slowly return. In his previous life, he had been a reclusive master, versed in astronomy and geography, skilled in reading people and secret arts, able to divine fate and see into the human heart. But he met a tragic end after trying to defy heaven and change his destiny.

When he wakes, he finds his body has suddenly grown weak, and he can see things no one else can. It turns out that “his chart is devoid of the Resource Star, with the Authority and Killings stars pressing down on him.” He decides to stop blindly sending out resumes and instead focus on building his resources. First, he uses his own energy to solve small problems for those around him. As his experience and connections grow, Luo Xiuqiao begins to get involved in business decisions. He rises from an insignificant outsider to a corporate consultant, guided by the principle of going with the flow and building strength for the right moment, carving out a comeback in modern society by changing his fate through the principles of the Book of Changes.
