Reborn in 1997: A College Student Marries a Terrible Shrew

[No System, one female lead, family life, an ordinary man’s coming-of-age story, not a wish-fulfillment novel]

Wang Chengjian is reborn in 1997, an era of opportunity and traps.

After graduating from college in his previous life, he suffered one setback after another...

His father suffered a calamity, the factory went bankrupt, and they sold their house for next to nothing. In the end, they moved back to their hometown, and his father never recovered.

Wang Chengjian finally managed to land a job at a government institution, only for his ex-wife to pressure him into going into business. He lost both his money and his marriage.

By the time he was forty, he had achieved nothing and still had no idea how his life had gone so wrong...

Given another chance at life, he swears to seize every opportunity.

So he turns the tide, saves the house, rescues his family, wins people over... and marries a shrew.

But along the way, he discovers that the seemingly unrelated misfortunes that struck his family, drove him to quit his job and enter business, and cost him his marriage and work were all connected by countless hidden threads.

They all seem tied to 1997, an era burdened by unresolved historical problems, and a “vast conspiracy” lurking beneath it all...
