Second Chance at Love: The Tycoon Next Door Was My Childhood Sweetheart

One female lead + academic prodigy + slow-burn story

A 25-year-old internet product manager dies suddenly and is reborn in a crib in the year 2000.

With a perfect memory and an astonishing gift for understanding, Sun Hao surveys his family’s dilapidated repair shop and decides to live this life differently.

He pretends to grow up like an ordinary child while offering ideas to his family: launch a children’s clothing brand, get into mystery-box sales, and invest in film and television.

His younger sister’s paintings become an intangible cultural heritage IP, his cousin’s chicken farm pivots to e-commerce, and he remotely directs financial deals in Hong Kong from behind his computer.

Yet all his business ventures combined are worth less than Coal Ball curled up at his feet and the simple pleasure of sitting down to a meal with his family.

Reborn once more, he isn’t trying to defy fate. He just wants to build a steady, fulfilling life.

Childhood sweethearts + a heartwarming rise to prosperity.
