In the 1980s, I Joined My Father's In-Laws, Then Made a Fortune Running a Stall in Hong Kong

[Career-Driven Female Protagonist] [1980s Hong Kong] [Making Money with the Whole Family]

Li Yue was reborn in the year she had followed her sickly father to Hong Kong to find her mother. After years apart, the family reunited only to divorce.

In her previous life, after her parents divorced, Li Yue lived with her mother. She stayed in a grand house in Hong Kong and wore Western-style clothes, putting on a glamorous front while living through hell in private. In the end, her stepfather strangled her to death.

After returning to life, the first thing she did was turn around and throw in her lot with her sickly father, the man her mother despised.

Everyone laughed at her. Why turn her back on a life of luxury in Hong Kong and go to Kowloon Walled City to scrape by?

With a father who was bound to die young and a daughter who was just dead weight, even if he latched onto a street girl with a little money, what could either of them amount to?

But Li Yue simply said, "Just wait and see."

Later, her sickly father stopped coughing blood. He even became the capable partner of the street girl who had taken him and his daughter in, helping manage her business and opening more than a dozen thriving cha chaan tengs that expanded into the mainland.

And Li Yue, the deadweight daughter mocked for not even understanding Cantonese, went from an elite Hong Kong school to investing the money from a demolition payout. Together with her stepmother, she multiplied their assets a hundredfold and secured a place on Hong Kong's rich list.

Those who once mocked Li Jinghua for living off a woman now came to his door on their knees, calling him Dad. They all wanted to become Li Jinghua's son-in-law and marry the brilliant Li Yue.

The young man who had always followed Li Yue stepped forward, looking entirely at ease. "Want to take her from me? Come on, let's see what you've got."

The crowd scattered backward. Who would dare take on the toughest fighter in Kowloon Walled City? They must have a death wish.
