When Zhao Shucheng woke up again, he was already on an airplane.

He didn't panic, knowing that he had definitely traveled through time again, so he immediately calmed his mind and tried to accept the memories of this world from his mind.

However, Zhao Shucheng has not yet extracted any useful memories from his mind. It seems that only under specific triggering conditions will Zhao Shucheng obtain the memories of this world.

Fortunately, Zhao Shucheng was not in a hurry. He should be able to find out his identity and the world he was in after the plane landed.

Zhao Shucheng recalled why he had time-traveled again. He remembered that he had just graduated from university and was preparing to go on a graduation trip with Gu Senxiang and the others, but he fell asleep on the first night of the trip and ended up here.

Speaking of which, when they graduated, Gu Senxiang and Ye Zhanyan had made plans. After selling their company shares, they would enter their respective preferred industries. Gu Senxiang planned to join a translation company, Ye Zhanyan planned to work in education, and Luo Zhi had already received an invitation from a major law firm in Shanghai. They were all ready to make their mark.

Jiang Baili, however, chose to teach in a rural area because of her past emotional entanglements. She even planned to write a book about her experiences over the years, but unfortunately, she time-traveled before she could even read it.

Zhao Shucheng really wanted to know how Jiang Baili would describe his relationship with Luo Zhi in her book because of his intrusion. Would she portray him as a womanizer, or would she follow the original plot? Unfortunately, with his transmigration, everything became uncertain. Perhaps only by returning to that world could he find out.

Several hours later, the plane finally landed.

After Zhao Shucheng retrieved his luggage, he pushed his suitcase to the exit gate and saw a beautiful woman waving to him. It seemed to be an acquaintance of his in this world.

As for how Zhao Shucheng knew, it was because the other person had a very familiar face; she must be a character played by a female celebrity in a TV series.

"Xiao Chuan, you're finally back!"

Upon hearing the other person mention his nickname, Zhao Shucheng suddenly had many memories that didn't belong to him.

Zhao Shucheng then learned that his name in this world was Qin Chuan, and the woman in front of him was actually his older sister, Qin Qian. They were both native Beijingers who had grown up in the hutongs (traditional alleyways).

Their family was a relatively wealthy self-employed family. The father was a shrewd businessman who ran a furniture store, so they had a privileged life growing up.

Zhao Shucheng returned by plane because his parents had sent him abroad to study and even planned to immigrate. However, his predecessor, Qin Chuan, learned that Xie Qiao, whom he had secretly admired since childhood, had finished her college entrance exams and even chose the same university as her.

In order to get closer to the person she liked, she secretly returned to China without telling her family, but her sister still found out, which led to the scene of her sister picking her up at the airport. However, she had already asked her sister not to tell the family yet, and that she would tell them about her return to China after her business succeeded.

Of course, Zhao Shucheng knew even more clearly that his sister had also secretly returned to China, since she had been sent abroad to study with him. However, his sister also had someone she liked, Tan Hui, who was currently in Shanghai, the very city where Zhao Shucheng and his sister lived.

Qin Qian had actually secretly returned to visit the person she liked. Knowing Zhao Shucheng was back, she specifically came to take advantage of the situation, but she was leaving tomorrow. After all, no one could be left behind abroad, and besides, she needed to finish her studies.

Once he understood his identity in this world, Zhao Shucheng also understood the world he was in, "Once Upon a Time in Youth".

The story is actually quite simple. In the early 21st century, a young girl named Xie Qiao was admitted to the university where her crush, He Xiaozhou, was studying, looking forward to starting a wonderful new life.

Xie Qiao became friends with her roommates Qianxi and Wang Ying, but He Xiaozhou got together with Qianxi, and their relationship caused Xie Qiao to lose her life goals.

Qin Chuan, Xie Qiao's childhood friend who lives abroad, encourages Xie Qiao to find her own value in life so that she can return to China. Qin Chuan originally wanted to confess his feelings to Xie Qiao, but by a twist of fate, he becomes Wang Ying's boyfriend, while Xie Qiao starts dating Wang Ying's childhood friend, Yang Cheng.

Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao wasted several years because of this, but finally, due to the Wenchuan earthquake, they realized their feelings for each other and came together. After falling in love, the two encouraged each other and worked hard together. Xie Qiao grew from a novice editor in the literary society to a well-known online writer, and Qin Chuan also devoted himself to the e-commerce business. After overcoming countless setbacks, he achieved remarkable success. The two of them thus became the post-80s generation who enjoyed the benefits of the Internet age.

After Qianxi entered the entertainment industry, she broke up with He Xiaozhou. Wang Ying chose to study abroad, and Yang Cheng's career went smoothly. Although everyone embarked on different paths, the spirit of hard work still led everyone to move forward.

Recalling the plot of this world, Zhao Shucheng felt it was incredibly melodramatic. What era is this? Confessing to the wrong person and then choosing to continue down the wrong path, even wasting several years because of it—what was the original owner of this body thinking?
You can give up on someone you've liked for years so easily, and even after confessing your feelings to the wrong person, you don't choose to correct it, but instead choose to continue down the wrong path.

Zhao Shucheng hadn't actually read the entire original story; he'd only gotten this far before he couldn't continue. However, since he'd come to this world, he naturally had to make changes, starting with starting his own business.

When Qin Chuan chose to start his own business, his real purpose was simply to get closer to his crush. So, the business he chose was to rent a window in the school cafeteria to sell pancakes. Although Qin Chuan's unique flavors and business strategies made his business increasingly successful, and he even opened a branch outside the school, this was definitely not the path Zhao Shucheng should take.

After all, this wasn't the first or second time Zhao Shucheng had started a business. Even within the school, he always pursued different entrepreneurial projects, not just a simple pancake stall. Besides, this kind of business posed no challenge at all this time. With Zhao Shucheng's culinary skills, he could earn far more money selling pickled vegetables than simply selling pancakes.

Of course, Zhao Shucheng was eager to make money not only to prove his abilities, but also to change the original fate of his family.

After all, he knew that in the near future, his father would owe eight million yuan in debt due to stock speculation, and his sister's husband had transferred his shares to someone else because his partner was in debt. The other party even took the opportunity to blackmail him into using Qin Qian to pay off the debt.

Qin Qian's man was severely injured in a conflict with Xiao Bao and died in the hospital. Devastated, Qin Qian attempted suicide by jumping from a building, but was fortunately stopped by trees. She returned to Beijing, but became depressed, lost all motivation, and immersed herself in grief, almost completely isolating herself from the world.

With the encouragement of her family, Qin Qian finally stopped isolating herself, but she also stopped dating and instead focused all her energy on her career.

Although his older sister often caused trouble and implicated him, even to the point where he almost couldn't afford a plane ticket back to China, she was still the original owner's biological sister, and Zhao Shucheng couldn't just stand by and watch her get into trouble.

Ultimately, most problems can be solved with money. Therefore, Zhao Shucheng's priority is to succeed in his business as soon as possible. Having money in hand will give him peace of mind, and he can handle any problems that arise. Qin Qian, seeing her younger brother safely landed and having already visited Tan Hui, decided to take Zhao Shucheng out for a meal before they went their separate ways.

Zhao Shucheng looked at Qin Qian and said, "Sis, are you really planning to go back?"

"Otherwise what? If I'm not here, and you're not here either, won't Mom and Dad find out very quickly?"

"Alright, since you're planning to go back, you really need to be careful. I won't be there to take the blame for you anymore, and no one will be there to clean up your messes. So you absolutely must be careful in the future and not cause any more trouble. Otherwise, the money you earn from working won't even be enough to compensate the boss for the losses. You'll be working for free every time and will have to pay out of your own pocket. It's not worth it at all."

Qin Qian asked curiously, "I understand, don't worry, it definitely won't happen again. By the way, what are your plans? You need funding for this startup, right? Mom and Dad haven't sent your living expenses for this month yet. Have you decided what to do?"

"I've already thought it through. I've prepared a business plan and am going to look into investment companies. If they're interested, I can start from scratch. If no one is interested, then I'll just have to do some small business first, earn my first pot of gold, and then work on the projects in the business plan. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later."

"I hope what you're saying is true. Okay, then let's part ways here."

"it is good!"

After seeing Qin Qian leave, Zhao Shucheng tidied up, took the file bag, walked out of the hotel, and headed towards his predetermined destination.

Because it is only the early 21st century, the internet industry is just emerging, and even e-commerce platforms are still in their infancy, Zhao Shucheng did not choose the internet as his entrepreneurial direction.

After all, now is not the time for future RMB players to enter the market and invest heavily in Internet companies. Although there are investment banks now, they are still very cautious about Internet projects, and those who have investment intentions are all foreign capital. Zhao Shucheng does not want to become too big to handle later, so the projects are all in the real economy.

However, attracting investment in the real economy is much more difficult than Zhao Shucheng had anticipated. Although he visited many investment banks, many people rejected him because his own company was not established and he didn't even have an office. They felt that he was trying to get something for nothing.

Although Zhao Shucheng had anticipated this and knew that this was not the time to attract investment simply by presenting a concept from the future, he was still somewhat disappointed.

Of course, Zhao Shucheng actually had his own money. After all, although his system's presence was becoming less and less noticeable, its function of earning money by walking every day was still there. However, having experienced so many worlds, Zhao Shucheng had long since become self-reliant, except for the uncontrollable aspect of time travel.

After much thought, Zhao Shucheng realized that if he wanted to earn his first pot of gold in a short period of time, he could only resort to the same old trick and make money through the stock market.

But even if he wanted to make money in the stock market, he currently only had enough money left besides his train ticket to Beijing. Unless Zhao Shucheng used the system's funds, he could only try to earn tens of thousands of yuan in a short period of time to make further progress.

After much thought, Zhao Shucheng suddenly understood why Qin Chuan chose to start a business on campus after returning to China. Given Qin Chuan's current financial situation, if he weren't the main character, he probably wouldn't even have the qualifications to start a business on campus, let alone rent a window.

Of course, Zhao Shucheng will also go to the campus in order to complete the plot, but Zhao Shucheng's entrepreneurship will not start with a pancake stall, but will start with a chain project.

However, what troubled Zhao Shucheng was that he still had a mountain of debt left over from his time abroad. The original owner of this body faced numerous difficulties returning home; he had finally saved enough for a plane ticket, only to have it all taken by Qin Qian.

Because he had promised Xie Qiao that he would attend her opening ceremony, he reluctantly sold his beloved motorcycle and finally saved enough money, only to be robbed in his home.

Although Qin Chuan tried his best to snatch it, the other party was armed with a gun, and Qin Chuan couldn't really risk his life for this money, so he had no choice but to give up.

In the end, it was Qin Chuan's roommate Chen Baojia, who had always liked him, who kindly lent him some money, which allowed Qin Chuan to return to China smoothly.

Zhao Shucheng gets a headache just thinking about it now. He wonders if Qin Chuan and the others were tricked by their parents. Otherwise, why would they not be given living expenses after being sent abroad, and even put them in such danger?
Therefore, Zhao Shucheng's most important task now is to quickly earn his first pot of gold, make up for the losses from his previous boss, return the money to Chen Baojia, and never go abroad again.

Although Zhao Shucheng was skilled in martial arts, even the best kung fu master is afraid of a kitchen knife, let alone a gun. Foreign countries are too dangerous, and Zhao Shucheng didn't want to risk his life. Besides, the storyline would definitely take place in China, so the best option was to stay.

Zhao Shucheng couldn't get the money from the investment bank in Shanghai for the time being, so he didn't waste any time and boarded the train back to Beijing.

Although Zhao Shucheng rushed back to the capital and arrived at Xie Qiao's school, it seemed he was still a little late.

When Zhao Shucheng saw Xie Qiao with her long legs from afar and was about to greet her, he didn't expect He Xiaozhou, the person Xie Qiao had a crush on, to appear.

Since the other party appeared, Xie Qiao had no eyes for anyone else, so she didn't see Zhao Shucheng greeting her, and left chatting and laughing with He Xiaozhou.

Zhao Shucheng would never be a simp, so seeing them chatting and laughing, he could only shake his head helplessly, but then he inadvertently saw Xie Qiao's roommate.

The reason Zhao Shucheng was able to recognize Xie Qiao's roommate was not only because she was beautiful, but more importantly, because she looked familiar, which was enough for Zhao Shucheng to confirm it.

"Hello, are you Xie Qiao's roommates?"

Xiao Qianxi looked at Zhao Shucheng and said, "That's right, are you also a student at our school?" (End of Chapter)
