Back to That Midsummer

This novel was originally titled A Dream of That Midsummer. It takes a realistic approach and features a hard-hitting business storyline. If that's not your thing, don't read it.

With his company about to go public and an even bigger stage within reach, up-and-coming entrepreneur Lu Ze wakes up to find himself back in the summer of 1998.

His parents have been laid off, and he has no resources or connections. Starting from the start with a bun shop, he goes on to open a rice noodle shop and a hotpot chain, gradually growing into a giant in the restaurant industry.

A man of principle, Lu Ze knows there are some things worth doing and others that aren't. He doesn't lose himself in the pursuit of money.

After building up his capital, he transforms into a low-profile investment titan, leading his companies to repeatedly overtake the competition on the bends.

From the internet to high technology, he builds his own business empire one step at a time.

He wakes up to find himself back in that summer once more.

Since he has a second chance, why not make peace, let go of the past, and move on?

Why dwell on old affairs in this life? Let us brew fresh tea over a new fire, and enjoy poetry and wine while we're young.

The most beautiful life is half poetry, half the warmth of everyday life.

1998: a story, and the girl who was part of it.
