The Poor Senior: From Picking Money to Building My Future

share time: 2025-11-09 12:31:27

Lin Chuan, a broke senior, works three jobs to pay tuition. One night, he finds a wallet with an old abacus and returns it to an elderly man, who says, "This abacus will help you 'pick up' the money you deserve." Suddenly, he gains a "money radar"—spotting hidden opportunities: a soon-to-be-demolished bookstore, a forgotten limited-edition figure, even the viral product for Su Xiaoyu's live stream (his secret crush). But rich kid Zhou Ming tries to crush him: stealing his jobs, mocking him for being "unworthy of Xiaoyu." While earning his first pot of gold with small tricks, Lin secretly helps Xiaoyu fix her live stream crisis. When he shows up with a business plan, he learns the elderly man is Xiaoyu's grandpa—and Xiaoyu has been collecting the milk tea straws he gave her. Turns out, the sweetest rags-to-riches story is: "I'll walk with you from the dust to the light."
