Summary
Highlights
Luo Jing attends a class reunion where he is scorned by former classmates, particularly Liu Gang, for being a game trainer. His crush, Shiyao, defends him, but he leaves feeling ashamed. After an incident, he activates a 'Wealthy Tycoon System' that rewards him for completing tasks, starting with holding Shiyao's hand.
Luo Jing receives a Porsche 911 for holding Shiyao's hand. He then uses his new wealth to buy 100 fitness classes from Manny, a gym coach, to complete another system task. This earns him ownership of the fitness center and the office building it's in. He offers Shiyao a ride home in his new Porsche.
Luo Jing nearly confesses his feelings to Shiyao but is interrupted. Later, a misunderstanding leads him to publicly confess his love for Shiyao, gaining 51% of Starlight Media shares as a reward. He reassures Shiyao of his commitment to her.
Luo Jing, as the new chairman of Starlight Media, faces immediate opposition from Zhang Xun and other skeptical employees who mock his past as a game trainer. He accepts a challenge to increase company earnings by 10% within a month or step down. He also learns that his family is disapproving of his relationship with Shiyao, thinking he's still a 'poor boy'.
Luo Jing confronts Shiyao's father, Jiang Dongyang, who disapproves of their relationship. Luo Jing reveals his ownership of Starlight Media and a villa, convincing Jiang Dongyang to give him a month to prove his worth. Meanwhile, at Starlight Media, Zhang Xun schemes to undermine Luo Jing by poaching key employees and making it difficult for him to secure a lucrative advertising contract with Tian Yue Group.
Luo Jing is preparing his presentation for the Tian Yue Group advertising bid. He discovers that his original plan has been leaked to Xinkai Media by Zhang Xun. Luo Jing strategically prepares a backup plan. He also learns that Lu Ningxue, an influential figure and his new neighbor, is closely watching the bidding process.
Luo Jing successfully presents his revised plan to Tian Yue Group representatives, impressing Lu Ningxue and winning the contract despite Xinkai Media's attempts to sabotage him. Following his business success, Luo Jing formally proposes marriage to Shiyao, winning over her parents. This action grants him a massive financial reward from the system.
Luo Jing's upcoming marriage is celebrated, but Manlin reflects on her missed opportunity with him. Meanwhile, Li Xinkai, with backing from the Zhenglin Foundation, attempts a hostile takeover of Tian Yue Group. Luo Jing, through a complex financial maneuver, acquires the shares of both Xinkai Media and Zhenglin Foundation, turning the tables and solidifying his control over the business empire.
Luo Jing marries Shiyao. At the wedding, Lu Ningxue implies future challenges, suggesting she still has plans involving Luo Jing. The story ends with a hint of continued rivalry despite Luo Jing's apparent triumph.
