This book is the most enjoyable one I've ever read about rebirth and entrepreneurship. It depicts the cutthroat competition in the business world, the everyday moments of university life, and the sweet romance between the male and female leads. What I'm most satisfied with is the male lead's transformation after his rebirth. Initially, he only wanted to make money to support his family.
The plot is quite good, and the main characters don't spend too much time developing a romantic storyline around the female lead. They focus on their careers and don't engage in excessive romance or harem building. The character development is also good. As for flaws, I personally don't think there are any.
How come such a good novel isn't more popular? The writing is top-notch, and the plot has no major flaws. The only possible downside is the slightly slow pacing, but I don't think that's a big problem. Could it be the single female lead's fault? But that shouldn't be the case, as single female leads have a large audience. I understand now, there's just not enough traffic. I'm a little confused about Tomato's recommendation algorithm.
Well written! A simple, understated love story, no ambiguity, no female supporting characters, and the relationships between the characters are handled very well. Unlike other novels where girls knowingly pursue the male lead despite knowing he has someone he likes, this one makes me wonder if outstanding women can only like the male lead and have no other men. I enjoyed reading it. Keep it up!
Honestly, the author isn't a seasoned veteran. It doesn't follow the typical "feel-good" novel formula, avoiding forced, mindless boasting. Instead, it's based on real-life experiences, progressing steadily and surely. The author's life experience makes it more engaging than those mindless stories. It's less dramatic and more like tea with added sugar—sweet, but warm, perfect for a quiet read.
The storyline is good; the male lead is very dedicated. His entrepreneurial journey is fraught with difficulties, but he's far from naive, showing considerable insight and offering many lessons. The story has many humorous and tearful moments, making it easy to get emotional.
A very good rebirth novel. It avoids the usual melodramatic opening and the forced worldliness that comes with trying too hard to be impressive. It simply tells the story of a boy who suffered greatly in his previous life due to his father's death and his struggles with a gentle and generous girl.
Overall, it's pretty good. The part about the younger sister's grades being altered felt a bit forced, but everything else was fine. Although the subject matter is a bit old-fashioned, it's still worth watching.
Five-star review. Why? Because the protagonist is kind.
The female lead feels a bit forced, but everything else is great. Keep it up!
