It's that time of the year, a time for wool coats, a time for relaxing, none of which I'll be doing.

"Marry me" he replies and my eyes widen in anger. Is he mocking me?. I look into the eyes of this stranger and see he's dead serious. "I need a wife, you need a home, marry me and you'll have all you want". I nod.

Lin Feng's greatest regret wasn't how he died - it was how he lived. At forty, broke and bitter, Lin Feng had become a ghost at class reunions. While his former roommates posted photos of family vacations and their children's graduations, he was job-hopping between positions that barely covered rent. While old classmates celebrated promotions to VP and director roles, he was explaining to yet another manager why he was a "good fit" for an entry-level position. His parents had stopped asking when he'd get married. His relatives had stopped asking what he did for work. Even his reflection had stopped looking him in the eye. The scholarship to university, the opportunities in Hangzhou's booming tech scene, the chance to ride China's economic explosion - he'd squandered it all through hesitation, fear, and poor choices. Twenty years of "I'll do it tomorrow." Twenty years of watching others take the risks he was too afraid to take. Then he wakes up on September 1st, 2020. First day of university. Again. Armed with twenty years of memories and knowledge of a future that hasn't happened yet, Lin Feng knows exactly which companies will explode, which cryptocurrencies will moon, which opportunities his classmates are about to miss. Knows which stocks will crash and which will soar, knows the names of tomorrow's billionaires when they're still nobody. But that's not even his biggest advantage. The Infinite Money System has awakened within him - a cheat-like ability that seems designed to hand him the wealth he always wanted. Unlimited money. Financial freedom. The power to rewrite every mistake. Or so he thought. Join Lin Feng as he navigates the cutthroat world of university entrepreneurship, untangles the mysteries of his seemingly perfect system, all while trying to build generational wealth and avoid making the same mistakes.
