I Got Rich by Repairing Time Folds

Chen Yukun inherits a run-down bookstore and unexpectedly awakens as a Repairer of Time Folds. When people are consumed by unbearable regret or an obsession etched into their souls, they gouge “folds” into the timeline. Those trapped inside relive their suffering again and again, slowly turning into time phantoms. While others work themselves to the bone for money, Chen Yukun dives into other people's regrets: He gives someone a second chance at a confession they missed, saves a loved one who died unjustly, and fulfills an obsession held until death... Every successful repair earns him cash, extra years of life, and time-manipulating abilities. His first job earns him fifty thousand, and a casual repair makes him rich overnight! But he gradually discovers that this isn't an ordinary golden finger: “Time Eroders,” who devour people's obsessions, hunt Repairers. His parents were top-tier Repairers who disappeared in the previous generation. At the end of every fold lies the “Origin Point of Time,” capable of rewriting the world. While everyone else is still struggling to get by, Chen Yukun is already traveling through time, mending regrets, raking in a fortune, and tearing the Eroders apart! “I'm no savior. I just use time to make a killing off the whole world.”
