In his previous life, Chen Yang’s mother was a family doormat who gave the job of cook at his father’s steel mill to her younger brother’s child.
That condemned him to a life of hardship. He spent his whole life doing manual labor, never managed to find a wife, and watched his childhood sweetheart run off with someone else.
By a twist of fate, he was reborn in the 1970s.
Given a second life, he would take back everything that belonged to him.
He would give his family a better life. He would help his weak, ineffectual father hold his head high. He would stand tall and live with dignity!
Chen Yang used every means at his disposal to reclaim the cook’s job at the steel mill, then climbed the ladder step by step and wrote his own legend.
