Reborn in 1997, Ling Yi discovered that he could access Baidu from 2043 and instantly memorize its search results. He retrieved the formula for a medicine that could cure his mother Cong Lanzhi’s chronic bronchitis, then reunited with her and began caring for her.

• Ling Yi realized he had returned to his first year of high school, in September 1997, and remembered that his mother Cong Lanzhi had died when he was young.
• Hearing Cong Lanzhi cough, Ling Yi resolved to find a cure and recalled the costly 09 spray and its leaked formula.

• Ling Yi searched Baidu for the 1997 high school Chinese textbooks and instantly memorized all three volumes, then ate ten steamed buns to recover from the weakness caused by using it.

• Ling Yi and Zhao Wen bought supplies for the courtyard kitchen, then Ling Yi prepared a feast while Lin Yuya and Zhao Wen watched.
• Zhao Wen and Lin Yuya tasted Ling Yi’s Xilingol stew and were impressed, then Lin Yuya asked about his cola chicken wings.

After hosting Zhao Wen and Lin Yuya, Ling Yi focused on finding a way to fund the technologies he remembered from the future. He considered lottery records, the 09 Potion, and ideas from rebirth novels, then decided he might as well copy everything he could.

• Ling Yi packed the remaining cola chicken wings for Lin Yuya, and Zhao Wen took her back to class.
• Ling Yi recalled how 223 new energy had made the Ancient Country a global leader and how its drones had deterred hostile fleets and destroyed Jiaopenkun's submarines.
