He once stood at the pinnacle of the world's wealth, commanding a trillion-yuan business empire.
Yet even in his final moments, he could not forget the little girl curled up in the corner, trembling all over.
She was his daughter.
And he was the one who had destroyed her life.
In his youth, Shen Chuan was an alcoholic, a gambler, and an abuser, a good-for-nothing in everyone's eyes. He beat his wife until she was covered in bruises. When his daughter had a fever that wouldn't break, he was still at the gambling table, losing his last cent.
In the end, his wife and daughter died on a cold, rainy night.
He spent the next twenty years becoming one of the world's most powerful business magnates, yet he could never forgive himself.
Until an accident.
He was reborn twenty years in the past.
Back on the day his daughter was burning with fever, his wife had lost all hope, and the divorce papers were still unsigned.
This time, he doesn't want to be a monster.
He gives up drinking, pays off his debts, and works himself to the bone to make money. Starting with a fried rice stall by the roadside, he builds a business empire of his own, one step at a time.
Everyone thinks he's just a prodigal who has finally turned his life around.
But no one knows that this man has twenty years of knowledge from the future.
The internet, real estate, new energy, AI, short videos...
Before the storms of change even arrive, he's already riding the wave.
And this time,
more than wealth, power, or standing at the top of the world,
what he wants to protect most
is the little girl who was once too afraid to call him "Dad,"
and the woman whose whole life he had betrayed.
