Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn? Novel

Jiang Qin, a man who struggled financially until age thirty-eight, facing the pressure of a three hundred thousand dowry and a life of extreme frugality, awakens reborn at eighteen. Filled with resentment over his past hardships and unanswered questions about his lost wealth, his sole focus becomes building a business and accumulating money. Upon reopening his eyes, he immediately retrieves a love letter he had written and, before a stunned school belle, declares his new priorities: to never work a traditional job again, to achieve financial freedom, and to shun romance entirely. The narrative follows the protagonist’s journey as he prioritizes wealth accumulation over relationships. Despite his clear disinterest in romance, several women are drawn to him, including the school belle who becomes persistently obsessive. The protagonist attempts to maintain a platonic relationship with her, using her naivete to steer their interactions towards friendship. A notable recurring element involves the protagonist's, and potentially the author's, peculiar fascination with feet. This obsession manifests in accidental physical contact, discussions of foot-related activities, and intimate moments involving the protagonist interacting with the female lead's feet, with the frequency of such mentions increasing as the story progresses. The novel features a charming and mature protagonist, a beautiful female lead, and a rags-to-riches arc, offering humor and a showcase of the protagonist's maturity. However, annoyances arise from bothersome side characters and the persistent focus on feet.
