Renascido: De Volta a 1991 para se Tornar o Homem Mais Rico

Chapter 1: Back to '91

Struggling to sit up in bed, Chen Jianghai felt as if his head were about to explode.

“Where… where is this?”

He looked around at the dilapidated brick house, rubbing his temples; the place seemed oddly familiar. Wasn’t he drunk at his shop just yesterday? How had he ended up here? Was this some kind of dream?

As Chen Jianghai sat there in a daze, the wooden door creaked open and a young woman stepped inside.

She was tall, her hair tied into two ponytails. Her eyes were large and glistening, her nose delicate, her complexion fair, and her lips full and rosy—she looked as graceful and charming as the idol Vivian Chow in her youth.

“Wanqiu… Wanqiu!” Chen Jianghai stared in disbelief at the woman before him, blurting out her name in a daze.

“You’re awake? Breakfast is ready. I’m off to work,” she said, grabbing a gray jacket to head out.

“Wanqiu, don’t go!” Chen Jianghai called out instinctively.

She paused, her body stiffening for a moment.

“I… I only have a few coins left, they’re all for you,” she said, fishing out two crumpled bills from her pocket and tossing them on the table. Her eyes flickered with sorrow as she walked out without looking back.

It was only after she left that Chen Jianghai came to his senses and leapt from the bed. He stumbled out, but by the time he reached the door, the woman was already far down the road.

“Wanqiu… was that really Wanqiu?”

“Am I dreaming?”

Chen Jianghai’s face was flushed with excitement, and he muttered to himself.
