Reborn a day later, I emptied my enemy's possessions beforehand.

Late autumn, 2016.

When Zhou Haibing came out of the Provincial People's Hospital, he was clutching a paternity test report in his hand, the paper making a rustling sound as he squeezed it.

His hands were shaking, from his fingertips down to his arms and then throughout his body.

He stood on the steps at the hospital entrance, his face as pale as if he had just crawled out of the morgue.

People came and went through the door and passed by him. Some people glanced at him a few times, but he didn't feel anything.

Zhou Haibing, 58, founder of Haibing Pharmaceutical Company and an entrepreneur with a net worth of billions, now stands like an old tree uprooted, swaying precariously in the autumn wind.

The report clearly states in black and white:

[After examination, Zhou Haibing has been ruled out as Zhou Dongsheng's biological father.]

Zhou Dongsheng, the son he raised for over twenty years.

He had been filled with anticipation since the child was still in his mother's womb. On the day the child was born, he cried outside the delivery room. When the nurse brought the baby out, his hands were shaking. He carefully took the wrinkled little thing and felt that his life had been worthwhile.

He stayed up all night to watch over his child when the child had a fever; he treated the whole company to dinner when his child got first place in an exam; and he transferred money to his child's account without batting an eye when his child went abroad to study.

For more than 20 years, he has given everything he could to his son, and he plans to leave all the company shares to his son in the future.

It turned out it wasn't his.

It's not his.

These three words were like a dull knife, cutting into his heart again and again.

He closed his eyes, and the face of Sun Guiying, the woman who had shared a bed with him for thirty years, appeared in his mind.

Then Wang Jinshan's face appeared again, the childhood friend he had grown up with, the one he had called Brother Jinshan for half his life.

Zhou Haibing suddenly felt like laughing, and a low, hoarse laugh, like someone was choking him, escaped his throat.

His childhood friend slept with his wife, his childhood friend allowed him to raise an illegitimate child for over twenty years, and his childhood friend still coveted the Haibing Pharmaceutical Company that he founded.

He knew nothing, and had been kept in the dark like a fool for so many years.

As he stood on the steps, trembling and with his head buzzing, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.

It wasn't something he heard through his ears; it exploded directly in his brain, like someone speaking inside his skull, every word crystal clear.

[Ding! Rebirth System successfully bound!]

[Host Zhou Haibing, age 58. System automatically activated as host's life energy is about to be depleted!]

[The host will be reborn in 1976 in 24 hours, retaining all memories upon rebirth!]

[Congratulations, host, you have received a newbie gift pack: one Shennong Space and one Shennong Medical Skill!]

Zhou Haibing suddenly opened his eyes and froze.

He subconsciously looked around, thinking someone was talking to him, but no one in the passing crowd noticed him or looked at him.

The voice didn't come from outside; it came from inside his head.

The Shennong Space initially covers 1000 acres and can be used to grow various plants and raise various animals.

[The host can divide the space into zones by will, and can designate one or more zones where time is absolutely still. Any item placed in this zone will never spoil and will remain absolutely fresh, and will retain the state it was in when it was placed in no time when it is taken out.]

[The space is bound to the host's soul and will continue to exist after rebirth.]

[Shennong's Medical Arts: Encompassing all medical knowledge from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, including a complete set of medical skills such as diagnosis, treatment, and medicine making.]

[Combined with a special skill—hypnosis, capable of hypnotizing any intelligent life form, including humans and animals; the hypnotic effect is influenced by the caster's mental strength.]

[A detailed user guide will be automatically loaded into the host's consciousness after rebirth; the host can also explore it independently through thought.]

[Countdown: 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 58 seconds.]

Zhou Haibing stood still, motionless, as if someone had acupunctured him.

After a full half minute, he slowly exhaled. The bloodshot in his eyes had not yet subsided, but the things that had gone out inside them lit up again, even brighter than before, so bright it was somewhat eerie.

He gripped the paternity test report tightly in his hand again, but this time his hand didn't tremble.

His lips moved slightly, but no one heard what he said.

He said: "God, you've finally opened your eyes."

Zhou Haibing strode down the steps, not heading towards the parking lot, but instead walked to a tree by the roadside, leaned against the trunk, and closed his eyes.

He needed to confirm if it was all real. He used his mind to connect with the source of the voice in his mind, almost instantly...

He felt a vast, boundless space, like a newly cultivated black soil, with air as fresh as after a rain and sunlight warm but not glaring.

A thousand acres of farmland stand neatly arranged, with a small river meandering through the distance.

He opened his eyes, his hands empty, still clutching the paternity test report, but he had clearly felt that every inch of that space was within reach.

He tried again, this time focusing his mind on a certain location in that space, and he felt the land there tremble slightly, as if in response to him.

it is true.

Zhou Haibing suddenly opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly, slowly turned up. It was an extremely complex expression, with ecstasy, ferocity, hatred, and a kind of resolute determination as if he had given up on everything.

He was prepared for a tough battle with Sun Guiying and Wang Jinshan. He planned to hire a lawyer, gather evidence, file a lawsuit, and regain control of the company's shares.

Even if he's about to die, he'll still ruin the reputation of that despicable couple before he dies.

But now, he has changed his mind.

What kind of lawsuit?

Why bother with all that effort?

He has twenty-four hours left before he is reborn into 1976. He has a thousand-acre Shennong Space and a miraculous medical technique that can hypnotize anyone.

What other evidence does he need?

What other lawsuits does he want?

What he needs to do now is to empty all his enemies' property, take all their money, all their gold bars, all their valuables, and take them to 1976 so that he can start his life anew.

Thinking of this, Zhou Haibing couldn't help but slowly curl the corners of his mouth into a smile. He first smiled silently, then his laughter grew louder and louder, and finally he burst into a loud laugh.

People coming in and out of the hospital all turned their heads and looked at him as if he were crazy.

He doesn't mind.

He didn't mind at all.

Just minutes before, he thought he was the most pathetic person in the world.

Suffering from a terminal illness and nearing the end of his life, his wife was having an affair with his childhood friend, the son he had raised for over twenty years was not his biological child, and the company he built from scratch was quietly emptied out, leaving not even a trace of bones.

But things are different now.

He is about to be reborn.

With this magical space and medical skills, return to 1976, to a time before everything began.

The paternity test report in my hand suddenly became meaningless.
