Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

TL: Etude

As you enter the pedestrian street, there are first snack stalls, followed by restaurants, and then supermarkets, bathhouses, hair salons, and open-air barbecue stalls.

At this moment, the girls from Class 3 of the Finance Department had just come out of the supermarket, carrying bags of daily necessities. They were chatting and laughing as they walked back, attracting the attention of many male university students with their lively chatter.

“Qingqing, don’t you think the boys in our class are of poor quality?”

“Yeah, not a single one is pleasant to look at.”

Song Qingqing, the girl addressed, nodded noncommittally. She was heavily made-up, with false eyelashes and dyed blue streaks in her hair, drawing attention wherever she went.

“No, I think that Jiang Qin is quite good.”

Pan Xiu, who was following behind, disagreed. She was of average beauty but had a gentle demeanor, which made her look somewhat cute.

Song Qingqing slightly frowned, “Which one is Jiang Qin?”

“The one sitting in the back row by the window. He’s about 1.8 meters tall and has a handsome face. Haven’t you noticed him?”

“No, I haven’t.”

“What about you, Jiang Tian? Did you see him?”

“Yeah, I remember him. He’s indeed good-looking, but he’s too lowbrow.”

Jiang Tian was a tall and beautiful girl with a slight baby voice. She remembered Jiang Qin and Cao Guangyu pretending to be rich with their phones and felt disdainful, always feeling superior.

At this moment, Pan Xiu revealed a knowing smile: “Do you know? Jiang Qin plans to pursue Qingqing.”

Jiang Tian’s eyes widened, “Really?”

“Yes, his roommate Ren Ziqiang told me just now.”

“Qingqing, you’re really charming. You’ve got an admirer already at the start of the school year?”

Song Qingqing found it amusing, “Do I look that approachable? It’s funny how anyone dares to pursue me.”

Jiang Tian recalled Jiang Qin’s appearance, “Actually, he’s not bad-looking. He passes in my book. Qingqing, won’t you consider it?”

“Tiantian, you’re too naive. What’s the use of just being handsome without money? You know how high my expenses are. I don’t want a boyfriend from an ordinary family. He even envies a three-thousand yuan phone, how can he buy me cosmetics?”

“That’s true. Jiang Qin definitely can’t afford you.”

At that moment, Pan Xiu’s gaze suddenly shifted northwards, and she quickly pulled them along: “Look, that’s Jiang Qin!”

Song Qingqing and Jiang Tian turned to see Jiang Qin walking out of Nanshan Restaurant, and couldn’t help but be impressed: “He is quite handsome. Should we go talk to him?”

“Why not? It doesn’t cost to chat.”

Pan Xiu, a known gossip, immediately went up to Jiang Qin.

At that time, Jiang Qin was in a bad mood and didn’t want to talk to anyone. But realizing they were classmates, he restrained himself, not wanting to start off on the wrong foot with everyone.

The girls from the Finance class were straightforward, asking him if he liked Song Qingqing, while she stood there with an air of superiority.

Jiang Qin was annoyed, thinking to himself that he was here to make money, not get entangled with girls.

“Come on, someone pee on them!”

“Jiang Qin, are you just shy?”

“I’m not shy. Ren Ziqiang is talking nonsense. You’d better believe in ghosts than in him.”

Hearing this, the girls laughed, thinking that boys are all the same, denying it when exposed.

Just then, a stunning figure burst out of Nanshan Restaurant, pushing past them and grabbing Jiang Qin’s arm.

Upon seeing her face, the girls from the Finance class were stunned, their eyes widening.

This girl was too beautiful, radiating a bright and lively aura, with a great figure and delicate features.

Song Qingqing, known as the prettiest girl in the third Finance class, felt a bit inferior in her presence and unconsciously stepped back.

“Jiang Qin, what are you dissatisfied with me about? Why are you acting like a stranger?”

“Chu Siqi, I have no dissatisfaction towards you. I just want us to part on good terms.”

Chu Siqi’s eyes welled up with tears, “Then why have you suddenly stopped liking me?”

Jiang Qin took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice calm, “Focus on your studies. I assure you that you’ll soon find someone you truly like. As for us, there’s no possibility.”

“I don’t care, you must like me, and only me. You can’t leave without my permission!”

“You’re really something else.”

Jiang Qin, not wanting to say more, turned to leave, but Chu Siqi wouldn’t let go, insisting he agree to continue liking her.

The girls from Class 3 were stunned, first by Chu Siqi’s beauty and then by her obsessive entanglement with Jiang Qin.

Before they could recover, another equally dazzling girl came out of the restaurant, apologizing to Jiang Qin before pulling Chu Siqi aside.

“Siqi, let’s go back and talk.”

“Hong Yan, I thought you were a good friend. Why do you have to like Jiang Qin?” Chu Siqi looked at her resentfully.

Hong Yan spoke with a sad expression, “I had no idea you knew each other.”

Chu Siqi, trembling with anger, “I’m telling you, he’s not interested in you. He’s getting close to you just to upset me!”

“Let’s not talk about this now. We’ll discuss it when we get back, okay?”

Suddenly, Wang Huiru also chased out. Knowing the situation better than anyone, she quickly dragged Chu Siqi back to the restaurant, leaving only Hong Yan and Jiang Qin.

The two stood facing each other in a somewhat tense atmosphere.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know about you and Siqi,” Hong Yan began with an apology.

Jiang Qin shook his head, “I have nothing to do with her. Don’t stress yourself over this.”

Hong Yan’s eyes widened in surprise, “Really?”

Jiang Qin, having lived for over forty years, realized some things can’t be explained just by words, “Today’s been chaotic. Let’s have dinner some other day, and I’ll explain.”

“Okay, just the two of us next time?”

“Deal.”

Jiang Qin smiled slightly and left, disappearing into the bustling crowd of the pedestrian street, while Hong Yan took a deep breath and entered the restaurant after composing herself.

On the road, the girls from the Finance class were left dazed, still not recovered from the scene that seemed straight out of a dramatic showdown.

“I think Jiang Qin really isn’t interested in Qingqing.”

After a while, Pan Xiu’s sudden remark caught everyone off guard, waking them up.

They exchanged looks, agreeing with Pan Xiu. Both girls vying for Jiang Qin were incredibly dazzling, far surpassing Song Qingqing. This wasn’t a drama where Jiang Qin would settle for less. How could he possibly like Song Qingqing?

Song Qingqing’s face darkened, her shopping bags tearing in her grip.

She had intended to playfully tease Jiang Qin from a superior position, only to end up embarrassed, realizing she was the one unfit. The indifference from Jiang Qin as he left was especially hard for the proud Song Qingqing to accept.

“When did I become such an insignificant character? I’m supposed to be the most beautiful in the Finance class!”

But recalling the two girls who appeared earlier, she felt even her right to be angry was questionable, perhaps the most humiliating part of all.
