[Period setting + making a fortune through buying and reselling goods + refusing to raise another man’s child + devoted husband and dad + never forgiving]
In his previous life, honest Lu Yuan was framed by the factory director’s daughter. He was led to believe he had slept with her while drunk, and was forced to abandon his devoted wife and three-year-old daughter to marry the director’s daughter, who was carrying another man’s child. After working himself to the bone for half his life, his stepson took all his property and threw him out. Only on his deathbed did he learn that his ex-wife and daughter had died tragically on the railway line heading south while looking for him.
When he opened his eyes, he was back in 1983. The factory director’s daughter was holding a fake pregnancy test and forcing him to divorce his wife and marry her.
Reborn, Lu Yuan slapped the test out of her hand and flung it in her face, exposing the fact that the child she was carrying was the deputy factory director’s bastard!
Facing threats from the factory director and emotional blackmail from his shameless relatives, Lu Yuan decisively split from the family and cut ties with them, then gathered his trembling wife and daughter in his arms.
“Wife, in this life, I’ll cherish you both with my life!”
With the three hundred yuan he received from the family split, Lu Yuan resolutely took his wife and daughter south to Yangcheng. He resold digital watches, wholesaled blouses, and traded in cassette players. Riding the wave of reform, Lu Yuan surged ahead and became a billionaire known throughout the country.
A few years later, the deputy factory director fell from power. The factory director’s daughter and her lover shifted the blame back and forth, living worse than death. When they saw Lu Yuan being interviewed on TV as an outstanding entrepreneur, with his wife in a designer gown and his daughter attending an elite school, they regretted it so much they could have torn out their own guts.
