Pretending I Can't Bear to Let Go
Time slips away and leaves us behind; cherries redden, and plantains turn green.

An Old Bull’s Fresh Grass Picks (With Ratings)
Hey, everyone! I have books of all kinds here. By “underrated,” I mean books with fewer than 100,000 fans. These are all promising reads that I personally sampled one by one, with a recommendation rating (10 stars max). Definitely worth checking out! Once this list is full, I’ll remove books with over 100,000 fans and abandoned books. I’ll also clear out abandoned books from time to time.

He was poisoned to death right at the beginning of the chapter! If you don't understand, don't write nonsense. The most important factor in increasing grain production is fertilizer! Do you really think that dividing the land and having each family work individually will increase yields? Without irrigation facilities and fertilizers, how can we increase grain production?
Everything else is fine, but seeing his ex-wife working as a dancer and still clinging to her, he must be out of his mind! Does he really enjoy being a cuckold?
Another question: What era was this? Did the country have that much funding? Allocating 350 million yuan to chip research and development—if we had that much money back then, we would have developed chips long ago, right? The gap wasn't that significant back then.
Judging a person by their writings: A life without ambition, even if reborn, will be the same. Their intellectual and moral development remains stagnant. Some call it being down-to-earth, but it's actually self-destructive. They possess extraordinary abilities but frequently take risks. Occasional success is acceptable, but otherwise, they'll remain stuck at the bottom. Judging by their pursuit of wealth, they're someone who hasn't truly understood life.
Stepping off the plane, I could immediately smell the air of freedom. August in America was surprisingly chilly. A local Black man who got off the plane with me, knowing I was cold, casually lit a nearby building to warm me. Everywhere I looked, I saw blacks and whites living together harmoniously.
Reborn in 1977, I didn't want to go to university; I wanted to be a couch potato. But then I ended up doing business, which I found very strange. Is doing business easier than going to university? In short, doing the wrong thing at the wrong time is like an old man eating poison.
What kind of absurd plot is it for the protagonist to give away a woman to someone else right from the start, especially a woman who loves you, has a great figure, and is someone you've touched all over her body? Doesn't he feel disgusted? And he keeps saying he didn't feel anything, that it wasn't love. If he didn't feel anything, why did he touch her all over when he was drunk? What is love?
He was poisoned to death in the first chapter. He got drunk, did *that* to a girl, and then refused to take responsibility. Still pursuing love? I love you, Mom, selling fried dough twists! If this girl were described as feisty and unattractive, I could still read it. But if she's described as beautiful and refuses offers of affection, that's just plain pretentious.
If a character is reborn and can't even pass the high school entrance exam, the author might as well just die! I'm dropping this!
A rare gem among rebirth novels, with excellent writing, narrative, and character portrayal!
