Synopsis

He was a food delivery rider in an urban village, dumped, mocked, and ground into the dirt by fate.

He gnawed on a cold meat bun in the rain, never knowing that a single time he had helped a stranger change a tire three years earlier was now barreling toward him in the form of five billion yuan.

The Heavenly Dao Gratitude System awakened: the 3,021 acts of kindness you've shown over the past three years will be repaid with interest, in ways you could never have imagined.

Overnight, he went from a poor kid everyone laughed at to the unseen tycoon controlling a five-billion-yuan business empire.

Someone asked him what gave him the right.

He smiled. “I delivered food for three years. I've seen the city at four in the morning, and I've seen the cold and warmth buried deep in people's hearts.”

This isn't just a wish-fulfillment story about getting rich overnight.

It has the ultimate satisfaction of public face-slapping, as well as a tender glance beneath an umbrella on a rainy night.

There are nerve-racking moves in the business wars, and laugh-out-loud commentary from an adorable pet parrot.

There is military-grade strategic planning, and clashes of wisdom drawn from the Hundred Schools of Thought.

His name is Jiang Qihua.

Even in ragged clothes, he had the bearing of a king.

Even when he couldn't afford three meals a day, he was never meant to be ordinary.

Today's nobody will one day...

make his name known throughout the world.

The hook in one line:

I traded three years of kindness for a destiny-defying comeback. Funny and moving, thrilling and satisfying.
