The First Hospital of Beijing, VIP ward.

Yu Tian died alone at the age of 65.

The news of the death spread, shocking the capital.

A generation of wealthy businessmen passed away due to illness, marking the end of his era.

"My life is over..."

Yu Tian's phantom slowly floated, his eyes fixed on the cold, straight line of the instrument.

"Do you still have regrets?"

Another hollow voice echoed.

Regret?

Having enjoyed a life of wealth, honor and success, what else could I possibly desire?

Along the way, I've seen through the world's coldness and indifference.

From rags to riches, a business tycoon.

Adored by thousands.

But.

... Regretful ...

There are still some.

It has always been hidden in the deepest part of my heart.

Only by peeling open Lingling's heart can one see the unforgettable remorse and pain.

"I have lived a life without reproach before heaven and earth...yet I owe the most apologies to my wife and children..."

Forty years ago.

Yu Tian saw the corpses of his wife and child with his own eyes.

That day early in the morning.

He gambled all night and lost everything. His friends dragged him to the television tower to watch the commotion.

Join the group.

Two corpses, one large and one small, lay on the ground. They were none other than her own beloved kin.

and all the tinder.

All because of his gambling addiction, he beat his wife the previous night and stole his son's only money for medical treatment. Now he faces the consequences and commits suicide by jumping from a building.

Remembering last night, DouDou, with a fever of forty degrees, convulsed from the fright and foamed at the mouth.

Wife Li Wan, even more so under the dim oil lamp's light in the corner of the wall, her face marred with scars, her eyes filled with despair.

But he still ignores the lives of his loved ones, takes their money to gamble, and is utterly heartless!

And doing so is merely to gain face in front of friends, hearing them call him "Big Brother" at most.

What a shame!

It's a pity!

Memories flickered before my eyes.

Yu Tian's heart, once again, was pierced by a blade.

Forty years ago, this lesson was too cruel.

The wife traded her life for his awakening and growth.

Although he turned over a new leaf and shed all his bad habits over the past forty years, he remained a business tycoon.

But the person is gone.

Even if we get more, it's far from enough to make up for this huge loss.

"I should have died a long time ago...if there's an afterlife...I'll do everything I can to treat you well..."

Yu Tian cursed himself angrily.

>Does reincarnation really exist?

Yu Tian's eyes, two streams of nothingness welled up and flowed. They were turbid and unclear.

The next moment.

The scenes that appear before my eyes gradually brighten.

A mass of energy, engulfing him, swirling in a vortex as it compresses.

"...To the end..."

........

"Brother Tian, before I went out, I calculated that we're definitely going to make back our investment tonight!"

"Lao San is right, last time it was just our bad luck. You got the money?"

Yu Tian was in a daze for a moment.

The conversation beside me felt close, yet distant and indistinct.

He was a little stunned.

This is me...

Am I not dead?

The echo of the dean's pronouncement, and the straight lines on the monitor, are still vivid in my memory.

Why are some parts of my palm painful?

The sound is getting clearer.

Two men's voices, filled with greed and incitement.

"Bro, why are you just standing there? Hurry up and go in, your sister-in-law definitely still has money!"

"If you don't have money, bring out some ration tickets. Come on, hurry up, we're waiting for you."

Open your eyes.

Her face appeared.

Sun Lao Er and Sun Lao San, these two former bosom friends, he hadn't seen them for forty years.

Ever since my wife and child died.

Yu Tian left the village, saying goodbye to his hometown, and went to Shencheng to pursue his dreams.

Is this a dream?

How could their hateful faces be here?

When his wife and children died, they even advised him to swindle the television station, even proposing to sell them.

Could this be heaven's punishment, forcing me to face pain once again?

Slap.

Slap.

Yu Tian slapped himself twice hard.

The pain in my hand is even more intense.

"Big Brother, what are you doing? Are you trying to be brave? We've had enough to drink today, go get the money!" Sun Laoer stared with wide eyes.

"Don't let us underestimate you, aren't you the fiercest Heavenly Brother? Come on!" Sun Lao San continued to egg him on.

Yu Tian took a deep breath and looked around.

After the rain, late at night, the earth smells fragrant.

The adobe houses stretching along both sides of the dirt road, and that towering willow tree at the end of the road, everything was so familiar.

Liushu Village.

I had wasted twenty-five years here.

There were also two shallow pits on the black iron gate in front of their house.

This is from two days ago when I got angry with my wife and punched things. The pain in my hand is from this.

Took a good look at himself.

No longer is there the decrepit appearance of an aged dragon.

Now Yu Tian is twenty-five years old and full of energy.

The patched-up black shirt and worn canvas shoes on his feet were exactly what he used to wear in his youth.

"...hiss..."

The headache subsided quickly.

Thinking is becoming clearer.

He was utterly certain that he had truly come back.

And now, it was the eve before his wife and children died.

He remembered clearly that night, he beat Li Wan mercilessly and took the last two yuan from home.

And this two-part sum of money that saved their lives also broke the camel's back, completely crushing Li Wanxi and leading her to take her own life with her child.

A myriad of thoughts swarm in my mind.

He shoved his two brothers aside and rushed into the yard.

To be reborn, I absolutely cannot let the tragedy repeat itself!

He wants to change all of this!

"Soft…little bean…"

Yu Tian's voice trembled as he pushed open the door and entered the ward, leaving his two brothers dumbfounded and at a loss.

"

Brother, are you wanting to play cards tonight...

"We don't care, anyway, we won't lose anything if we lose. All the winnings belong to him!"

The two brothers glanced at each other and went to the side to wait in the shadows.

And Li Wan, who was in the courtyard using cool water to apply towels to DouDou to bring down her fever, also heard Yu Tian's shout.

My heart skipped a beat.

He stopped his work, rushed back to the brick house, and locked the door.

The padlock on the dilapidated wooden door was merely decorative.

<<<>>>

When Li Wan ran back to the room, the chill and fear in her eyes made Yu Tian feel even more guilty.

All of this is self-inflicted, the past me has brought so much pain to you all!

"Softly..."

Yu Tian pulled open the broken door and walked into the low-ceilinged room.

“Yu Tian… I beg you, if you still have a shred of humanity left, please let us go… This last bit of savings is for DouDou’s medicine… Do you really want to watch us die before your eyes…? Please, don’t gamble anymore…”

Under the dim yellow lamplight, Li Wan held Dou Dou in one hand and clutched a few tickets in the other. In the corner of the wall, her eyes were full of fear.

Due to long-term malnutrition, the once white arms are now thin and skeletal. The bones are clearly visible beneath the skin.

"Wow... Daddy, Doudou was wrong, Doudou is cold..."

Dou Dou was even more frightened to tears, her whole body shaking, she turned pale.

He was small and had never even come close to surpassing his father, Yu Tian, in any way since birth.

Although Yu Tian hasn't spoken yet.

But the two of them completely guessed what he was going to do next.

There wasn't a single decent piece of furniture in the dilapidated house.

A few days ago, a flowerpot broke, and the soil is still there in the window.

On the bed, on the table, there are knife marks everywhere.

The only thing that could be used as a threat is what he said when he got angry last time, about burning down the house, right?

Seeing my loved one trembling with fear.

Yu Tian knew, his current position was still that hated bastard.

Taking a deep breath, tears welled up in my eyes.

Thousands of words were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't utter a single one.

Thunk.

He knelt on the ground.

A man's knee bends for gold, but throughout his past and future lives, he has never knelt.

But this time.

He must apologize to his wife and children with the utmost sincerity.

"Wǎn, I was wrong... Doudou, come here, let daddy hug you..."

Yu Tian stepped in, wanting to hug his beloved family member whom he thought about day and night.

"You...what are you doing?"

Li Wan's eyes widened in disbelief at everything happening before her.

Is this Yu Tian?

How could he possibly cry?!

No!

This is crocodile tears!

He must be trying to lure the child away and sell them...

"Yu Tian, if you dare sell Doudou, I'll die with you!"

Li Wan bit with all her might, protecting Doudou.

Doudou was even more frightened and cried loudly, becoming paler and trembling violently.

"Tender..."

Yu Tian knows that saying anything now is useless.

He stood up at once.

His towering frame sent another shiver down Li Wan's spine.

He went to the kitchen and picked up a knife.

Li Wan was so frightened that her heart pounded in her chest. She was ready to fight to the death.

However, unexpectedly.

Yu Tian carried a knife, but walked straight out of the room.

"Wǎn, wait for me, ten minutes, I'll get the money back, let's send Doudou to the hospital first."

As soon as the words left his lips, Yu Tian's figure vanished at the door.
