In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.
He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...
Hebei Vocational University, old dormitory.
Despite being confirmed to have been reborn, Lin Yifeng, standing on the steps, was still in a daze and confused.
Anyone who opens their eyes and finds themselves back 33 years in the past would feel a little uneasy.
The newspaper in the old dormitory clearly showed Lin Yifeng the time: Friday, March 13, 1992.
On the far right of the bulletin board was a list of government-sponsored students from Hebei Vocational University studying abroad. Lin Yifeng didn't need to look at each name; he already knew the result.
"My name isn't on the list, nor is Tang Yuxia's!"
Tang Yuxia is Lin Yifeng's first love, and the person Lin Yifeng is waiting for.
Thinking of his first love, Lin Yifeng's mind suddenly became active, and all sorts of memories about her involuntarily surfaced.
Lin Yifeng met Tang Yuxia at the library. At the time, Lin Yifeng was holding a copy of "One Hundred Years of Solitude," while Tang Yuxia was holding a copy of "Reader's Digest."
"In my past life, I was fooled by Tang Yuxia, giving up my studies and everything else, and recklessly choosing to smuggle myself into Russia. I was even smug, thinking that I would definitely live better than my classmates who stayed in China."
"The limitations of our time!"
In the torrent of the times, how many people can escape the current and see the future? And how many people could have predicted that in just over thirty years, the motherland would rise to become a behemoth, while the little cherry blossom that once claimed to have bought up the entire United States would wither and become dependent on others.
In his previous life, Lin Yifeng lacked that forward-thinking vision. After failing to be selected for a government-sponsored trip abroad, he was tricked and coaxed by Tang Yuxia into spending a huge sum of money to smuggle himself to Russia with her and work illegally washing dishes.
As a result, Tang Yuxia dumped him and smuggled herself to the United States again.
Fortunately, Lin Yifeng worked hard and had enough skills in a foreign country. Despite being an undocumented immigrant, he managed to build a net worth of hundreds of millions.
But the suffering involved...
"1992."
"What a wonderful era!"
In his past life, he had wondered what his future would have been like if he hadn't chosen to smuggle himself into Russia and had instead stayed in China.
For students in 1992, being a vocational school graduate was synonymous with success in that era.
In this era, only those students who fail to get into vocational schools will choose to go to high school.
"Lin Yifeng!"
The sudden sound interrupted Lin Yifeng's thoughts. Lin Yifeng took off his sunglasses and looked at the person who had come.
So trendy!
This was Lin Yifeng's first impression. He looked down at Tang Yuxia on the steps.
Her hair was in big, wavy curls, and she wore sunglasses similar to those worn by Chet Lam. She was also wearing a puffy knitted sweater.
She wore faded jeans that were too tight to show off her perfect figure, making Tang Yuxia's legs look very long.
"Lin Yifeng!"
Lin Yifeng's memory of his first love, Tang Yuxia, had become hazy. Before he could even begin to recall her, this woman standing before him revealed her purpose:
"We're not on the list of students going abroad to study!"
What are you going to do?
In his past life, Tang Yuxia had said the same thing to Lin Yifeng directly. Lin Yifeng didn't quite remember how he felt back then, but he was in a good mood now. Facing Tang Yuxia's question, he asked earnestly, "Tang Yuxia, am I handsome?"
If he could be 18 again, Lam Yat-fung would love to look in the mirror and admire his handsome face.
For him, returning to his youthful days is more important than having a winning hand; it's about regaining his handsome looks before they were ruined.
"kindness?"
"kindness!"
Lin Yifeng's answer caught Tang Yuxia off guard. She took off her sunglasses, her beautiful eyes looking at Lin Yifeng in disbelief, her voice rising:
"Lin Yifeng, did you hear what I just said?"
"I said, my name isn't on the list of those going abroad, and neither is yours!"
For Tang Yuxia, going abroad was the most important thing in her life, even more important than getting married. She didn't care who her husband was, but she had to go to the United States!
In her past life, Tang Yuxia did exactly that. She coaxed and tricked Lin Yifeng into smuggling herself out of the country with her. After arriving in Russia, Tang Yuxia went to great lengths to find a way to get to the United States, even at the cost of breaking up with Lin Yifeng.
"I heard you clearly."
Lin Yifeng looked at Tang Yuxia, his face still serious: "So, am I handsome? Am I especially handsome right now!"
Tang Yuxia was furious:
"Handsome, incredibly handsome!"
"Just as handsome as Hong Kong stars, are you satisfied?"
He's as handsome as Hong Kong stars... Who are some handsome Hong Kong stars born in 1992?
Aaron Kwok?
When it comes to handsome Hong Kong stars of the 1990s, the first one that comes to mind for Chet Lam is Aaron Kwok, one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Lin Yifeng was satisfied. He reached out to Tang Yuxia: "Do you have a mirror with you? Let me use it!"
"Lin! Yi! Feng!"
Tang Yuxia bristled. She strode up the steps, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Yifeng's profile, gritting her teeth: "I'll say it one last time!"
"Our names are not on the list of those going abroad!"
Of course I know!
Standing on the steps, Lin Yifeng looked down at Tang Yuxia. A few seconds later, before Tang Yuxia could explode again, he said softly:
"Since we're not on the list of government-sponsored students going abroad, let's stay here!"
"Stay here to build the country and contribute to the Four Modernizations."
"Stay?"
Tang Yuxia's voice rose infinitely: "Lin Yifeng, do you know how much preparation I did to go abroad?"
Of course I know!
Lin Yifeng waved his hand, interrupting Tang Yuxia's subsequent self-indulgent sentimentality:
