Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

More than twenty years have passed since he traveled here in 1988. Zhang San felt a bit emotional, as if he had done nothing in his life, yet it also felt like he had done a lot.

From Victoria Peak in Hong Kong, at the Cloud Pavilion, Zhang San sat on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at Victoria Harbour, where countless yachts cruised, creating a scene of prosperity.

However, the streets of the Central and Western District are not visible from here, as they are all blocked by towering buildings, which must be bustling with people at this time.

No wonder those foreigners lived on the mountaintop back then; looking down now, they have a different kind of feeling. This place was unattainable for me in my past life, but now it's one of my many mansions.

Looking back on the past twenty years, now that he's nearing middle age, what has Zhang San accomplished?

Is it the composure of middle age, or the loyalty of youth?

What did I want back then?

In his past life, others spent half their lives in the military, while he spent the other half as a beast of burden. In this life, he can be said to have strategized and seized every opportunity. What was it all for? Looking down at Victoria Peak, through the towering skyscrapers, he seemed to see the same beasts of burden he had once been. He seemed to understand, yet he also seemed to understand nothing at all.

It's because of that lingering sense of injustice in my heart!

The sanctions that North America just imposed were child's play; loopholes could be easily exploited. On the surface, everything in the world is pretty much the same as in his original timeline, except that companies like ASM and MRA are missing—companies that mainland Chinese people today have never even heard of, and many others that are completely unknown to them.

But everything has changed. This world is no longer the same.

Just like when the Apple 3GS was released, sales were lukewarm, and its sales were constrained by many companies; at this time, Zhang San, who held Apple company stock through various funds, originally felt that he was losing money, but now he has made peace with himself.

Anyway, I have plenty of money, so just in case, I'll keep it for now. What if the fruit company makes a breakthrough someday?

Human life is fleeting, like the life of plants in autumn.

He felt that he had been reborn into this life and was living a very enjoyable life. He had been prominent in public and was also a hidden dragon in the abyss.

"Heh... Everyone else gets a system when they're reborn, but I don't; everyone else gets a cheat code, but I don't. But I still like this kind of life, otherwise, I might end up fighting against countless extraordinary beings—would that really be the human world?"

Zhang San murmured to himself into the distance, as if speaking to someone else, or perhaps to himself.

Completely relaxed, he closed his eyes, enjoying a moment of tranquility, and sensed someone sitting beside him.

"Not leaving?" Zhang San asked calmly.

"I'm not leaving." A soft voice came, filled with a myriad of emotions.

"Have you come to your senses?" Zhang San's tone remained unchanged.

"Where can I go? You've kept me under your thumb for so many years, and I still don't know where I'm going." There was a hint of resentment and indignation in her voice: "You wretched man, over ten years! Where can I go?"

Zhang San opened his eyes, his gaze full of tenderness, and gently pulled her into his arms. The former Jade Maiden Sect Leader struggled for a moment, then said, "I've taken care of you for over ten years, and I'll take care of the rest of your life too."

"You're so greedy, you have so many women..."

"Well……"

"Move it away, you'll suffocate!" She pushed Zhang San away and then complained.

Zhang San chuckled and started writing, saying, "You know what? I've known you twice. In my previous life, I knew you, but you didn't know me."

"Heh...you old man, you can't even say sweet words anymore, it won't work on young girls now."

"Then I'll lie to you for the rest of my life, and you can pretend you're being lied to, okay?"
