Fate Rewritten cover

In Fate Rewritten, Wang Changchi risks everything as an illegal worker to change his family's fate, hoping to secure a better future for the next generation.

In Fate Rewritten, Wang Changchi's family has long dreamed of escaping their impoverished village. Generations have passed with hopes pinned on him as the one who might break free from the cycle of poverty. However, a twist of fate snatches away his chance for a better life, forcing him to take desperate measures. He becomes one of the many illegal migrant workers, risking everything for a glimpse of city life and the success that has eluded his family for so long.

As Wang navigates the dangers of his new reality, he grapples with the weight of his family's expectations. The pressure to succeed is immense, and every decision he makes could either propel him forward or plunge him deeper into despair. Despite the odds stacked against him, he clings to the hope that he can still rewrite his family's future, even if it means stepping into a world fraught with peril.

Ultimately, Fate Rewritten explores the lengths one will go to change their destiny. Wang realizes that while he may have lost his own chance, the future of his family rests in his hands. With a few words on the right documents, he could secure a better life for the next generation, but the price of altering fate could demand everything he holds dear.
