The journey home and the sea of stars
In 2035, AI trainer Lin Wanxing died suddenly in front of the keyboard. His last thought was "if I could do it again."
When she opened her eyes, she returned to 2025 - the spring when her family was overwhelmed by a debt of 800,000 yuan. There was a glaring deficit in the ledger, my parents suppressed their quarrels at night, and my younger brother secretly tore up the registration form for the Academy of Fine Arts.
"This time, I will protect this family."
The 25-year-old Wanxing began a lonely battle. She uses her future memories to predict trends and her professional knowledge to rebuild her family's finances. She helped her father set up the "Old Craftsmanship Mutual Aid Society", allowing him to regain his dignity amidst the noise of repairs; she helped her mother run the "Guilan Private Kitchen", letting the fireworks on the stove warm the whole community; she guarded her brother's paintbrush and watched his "Homeward Bound" based on his home win an award at an art exhibition.
From the first income from gold fixed investment to the last loan being cleared; from the monthly income being only enough to repay the debt, to the net worth exceeding seven figures; from the panic of being chased by debt, to moving forward calmly with neighborly help.
This is not only a story of debt repayment, but also a family epic about dignity, reconciliation and rebirth. When the father made a lamp for the mother out of scraps, when the whole family hugged each other and cried in front of the cleared IOU, when the coffee table was piled with the heartfelt messages from neighbors during the eve dinner - they understood: wealth is the lamp that is always on when returning home, people sincerely say "hello" wherever they go, and the peace of mind that the family feels when they stand side by side in Laoshan to welcome the sunrise of the New Year.
After "Homeward Bound", it's all a sea of stars.
Purpose: This is a story about "how to use the wisdom of the future to repair the scars of the past and protect a warm home in the cold digital age."
