Rebirth 1990: Rise of the Tycoon

Reincarnation

Lu Feng felt a pounding headache, a dry throat, and the sensation of a hangover that made him want to vomit.

But his empty stomach had nothing left to throw up.

He opened his eyes, as if all his strength had been drained. The view before him was a cramped little room, where he lay on a wooden bed. The surroundings were quite old, emanating a musty smell.

"What is this place?"

No one answered him. Not far away, there was a red bucket. Lu Feng mustered the strength to get up and stand by the bucket, scooping up half a ladle of cold water and drinking it down quickly.

He felt somewhat better. Lu Feng looked up and was stunned by the reflection in the mirror.

The mirror showed a man with disheveled hair, in his twenties, wearing a work camouflage suit on his upper body and tattered suit pants on his lower body. His complexion was sallow and thin, as if he had been malnourished for a long time.

Lu Feng's hands trembled slightly as he touched his face, feeling it so vividly!

"Who is this? This isn't me!"

A sharp pain surged into his brain, overwhelming his frail body. He half-kneeled by the bucket, gasping for air as chaotic memories flashed before his eyes.

Lu Feng, twenty-four years old, with only a primary school education, married for four years, his wife's name is Jiang Xiaoyan, and they have a child. He is unemployed, has been idle since childhood, constantly getting into fights, addicted to gambling, and often abusive towards his wife...

"No!"

These memories made Lu Feng's mind swirl, mingling with his own memories. His name is also Lu Feng, thirty-five years old, a graduate of a prestigious university with a master's degree, chairman of two listed companies, worth over 2.7 billion in 2020, recently named one of the Top Ten Outstanding Young Talents, and unmarried.

Lu Feng sorted through his memories and suddenly looked up at the calendar on the wall, frozen as if struck by lightning.

The date on the calendar was unmistakably: early 1990s.

Two hours later, Lu Feng finally absorbed all the memories. It was a tragic love story of this era. Lu Feng and Jiang Xiaoyan met through a blind date. Due to Lu Feng dropping out of school at a young age and not learning any skills, his livelihood was very unstable.

Jiang Xiaoyan refused to sleep with him, hoping to force Lu Feng into action, and suggested he find work in the city.

Unexpectedly, after Lu Feng started working at a factory for a few days, he fell in with a group of unsavory friends, indulging in gambling and other vices. After being dismissed from the factory, he drank heavily every day and, at the slightest provocation, would come home and beat her.

Such behavior made Jiang Xiaoyan more reluctant to give herself to him. However, some elderly people advised her that having a child would be good, as men are all about working for their children.

A few months later, Jiang Xiaoyan adopted a one-and-a-half-year-old daughter. However, Lu Feng did not change much. Jiang Xiaoyan considered divorce, but in this era, divorce was unthinkable for a woman.

Yesterday, after drinking, Lu Feng came home and beat her again, falling into a drunken sleep.

Unexpectedly, this sleep led the current Lu Feng to the present.

The sound of the door opening interrupted Lu Feng's thoughts, and he looked up toward the door.

The door opened, and a plump little girl ran in. Seeing Lu Feng half-kneeling by the bucket, her smile instantly turned to fear, as if she had seen a monster.
