Back to My Dad’s Youth

One day, Lin Wangye was reborn, finding himself twenty years in the past, before he was even born. The young master couldn’t stand the miserable state of being on the streets and, in his desperate moment, had a brilliant idea: Why not find his 18-year-old, rich second-generation dad and keep living off him? With this fantasy in mind, Lin Wangye started asking around at the school, eventually tracking his dad down at an internet cafe. There, his dad was furiously pointing at the black-and-white game screen, cursing as he waited to respawn. Unable to watch any longer, Lin Wangye yanked his dad off the couch and sat down, expertly showing off his skills. His dad: “Long-lost wild dad! I’m tr*sh, carry me!” Lin Wangye: “…?” And that’s how Lin Wangye met his dad, Lin Shen. For a moment, Lin Wangye couldn’t decide which was more outrageous: the fact that his dad was calling him ‘dad,’ or that his dad had a fight with his own father, got his allowance cut off, and now needed him to take care of it. The biggest shock? He discovered his dad didn’t even like girls. Help! Then where did I come from?! With these questions in mind, Lin Wangye became good friends with Lin Shen, trying to figure out what had happened in the past. When Lin Shen was young, he was a bit of a s*umbag, flirting with everyone. He had ambiguous relationships with the handsome internet cafe manager, the gentle bookstore owner, and others. But according to Lin Wangye’s observations, the person his dad truly cared about… was probably the cold and aloof classmate who was always secretly watching the two of them. Even though he still looked like a teenager, it wasn’t hard to see that this guy was his dad’s business rival many years later: Lu Chengxuan. * Besides his dad, Lin Wangye was also determined to find another person. He didn’t know when or where, but he was sure they’d meet eventually. As expected, he ran into that elegant uncle he had once admired from afar. Before his rebirth, he couldn’t catch him and couldn’t get him. But now? Let’s see how easily I can take control and make him mine this time! Lin Wangye put on his sunglasses: “Hey, handsome, want to chat?” Handsome guy: “Aren’t you with Lin Shen?” Lin Wangye: “?” Handsome guy: “?” Lin Shen: “?” Lu Chengxuan: “?” * There are four main characters, each with their own romantic plotlines. The son’s love line comes first, and the dad’s later. Both are equally important, with the main perspective being the son’s. A contrast between the straightforward couple and the push-pull dynamic duo: Son’s line: [Happy-go-lucky, playful shou x Strong, tragic, jealous gong] Dad’s line: [Tough on the outside, soft on the inside tsundere shou x Cold, reserved, aloof gong]
