In his past life, the protagonist devoted everything to romance. Obsessed with a lover, he sacrificed his future, only to be betrayed. The bitter affair ruined the whole family and ended with a tragic death. Given a second chance, the protagonist is reborn right at the critical turning point of life, carrying all painful memories of the previous life.
After enduring such devastating heartbreak, the protagonist wakes up to a harsh truth: romantic love is nothing but a burden. Reborn, he makes up his mind to shut the door on all romance. No more emotional drain for anyone. The lover he once chased desperately now means nothing.
Armed with foresight from the future, the protagonist focuses fully on business and seizes huge opportunities of the era to build wealth. When the ex-lover comes back begging for reconciliation and new admirers keep trying to win her/his heart, the protagonist turns them all down coldly. He pours all energy into growing business and accumulating power and fortune.
Those who once looked down on and hurt the protagonist can only watch in shock as he rises steadily to great success. No longer trapped in trivial love dramas, the protagonist builds his own business empire with advanced vision and completely rewrites the miserable fate. In this new life, he lives solely for himself. Wealth, status and freedom all belong to him.
