Summary
Highlights
Suhe recounts his past life where he was rejected due to poverty. After a rebirth, Liu Wanrong, his ex-girlfriend's sister, proposes to him, triggering a system that grants him cash back on purchases made for his wife.
Suhe quickly accumulates wealth by buying a diamond ring and other luxury items for Liu Wanrong, receiving massive cash back from the system. He quits his job and decides to open a cake shop for his wife, showcasing his newfound financial power.
Suhe opens a cake shop for Liu Wanrong, investing significant capital and hiring a team. He also buys a luxury car, registered in his wife's name, further increasing his wealth through the system's cashback feature. This causes a confrontation with his former girlfriend, Liu Wanru, and her current boss, Lu Shaoyuan.
Lu Shaoyuan, confident in his market analysis, shorts gold futures, while Suhe, with his system's foresight, goes long. This results in heavy losses for Lu Shaoyuan and significant gains for Suhe. The sisters' differing financial situations cause friction within their family.
Suhe purchases a multi-million dollar luxury apartment, again in Liu Wanrong's name, triggering another substantial cashback. This leads to a public confrontation at the sales office with a rude customer and highlights Suhe's generous nature towards those who treat him kindly.
The cake and tea shop, named 'Liu Yan Tea Color', becomes incredibly popular thanks to a viral marketing campaign involving Liu Wanrong's popularity. Suhe then plans for expansion and considers starting an investment company.
Suhe and Liu Wanrong plan to open a second store. During a shopping trip, they encounter more confrontations with Liu Wanru and her new boss, Jin Wusong, who attempts to show off his wealth but is outmatched by Suhe’s generosity and foresight.
Liu Wanrong's success and wealth lead to envy and malicious actions from a classmate, Ye Liting. Suhe’s car is vandalized, but a car recorder captures the perpetrator. Suhe's wealth also triggers a system upgrade, pausing all purchases for 24 hours.
After the system upgrade, Suhe gains a financial market prediction function. He uses this new ability to make quick profits in the stock market and decides to open his own financial company, hiring his former mentor, Lou Zhan Ting, as CEO with an incredibly lucrative offer.
The success of 'Liu Yan Tea Color' attracts the attention of Liu Zhenhai, a senior from Suhe's school who now runs a capital firm. Liu Zhenhai attempts to buy the store but is rebuffed. He then resorts to dirty tactics to sabotage the shop's reputation.
Liu Zhenhai and Jin Wusong, unaware of Suhe's abilities, heavily short soybean futures. Suhe, however, foresees an extreme weather event that will cause soybean prices to skyrocket. He instructs his company to go long, setting the stage for a dramatic market play.
Suhe's prediction comes true, leading to immense profits for his company and financial ruin for Liu Wanru's company, which had heavily shorted soybeans. Liu Wanru loses her job and faces significant debt, leading her to consider desperate measures. The narrative concludes with Liu Wanru's humiliation and regret over her past choices.
