Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

TL: Etude Translations

While everyone was chatting, two figures gracefully approached from across the playground, both with long hair reaching their waists. Even in their military training uniforms, it was clear they had long legs, slender waists, and graceful figures.

The one on the far left was the girl Ren Ziqiang had mentioned as the most beautiful freshman in the Finance Academy, named Qi Qi.

She was the type of girl who wore very delicate makeup, clearly skilled at it, enhancing her charm while still drawing attention.

After all, most of them had just graduated from high school and few girls knew how to apply makeup. In an environment where everyone was bare-faced, a girl who wore makeup really stood out.

Moreover, Qi Qi’s features were naturally beautiful, and her tall figure, complemented by her long, straight black hair, added a quality to her overall demeanor that could be described as a first-love template, indeed capable of igniting a young man’s desire for romance.

Walking beside her was her best friend, named Guan Wensi, also a beauty, similar in type to Qi Qi, a girl who wore makeup, but with a less striking natural base, so the contrast between them was somewhat noticeable.

Their appearance instantly caught the attention of all the boys on the playground, to the point where some couldn’t resist taking out their phones to snap a photo.

“Sun Na, what are you all talking about?” Qi Qi walked over and sat next to the junior Zhang Guangfa had been flirting with, her fragrance enveloping Zhang Guangfa and Sui Jun, leaving them infatuated.

“Oh, that Jiang Qin guy?”

Sun Na and Qi Qi were dorm mates. Hearing the question, Sun Na nodded: “Senior Zhang said that Jiang Qin is not that great, just good at sweet-talking young girls. Be careful, Qi Qi.”

Qi Qi gently tucked her long hair behind her ear: “I’ve heard too many sweet nothings already, and I’m not impressed by such tactics.”

“That’s right, our Qi Qi is a high-level player,” Guan Wensi added with a playful laugh.

“You’re the high-level player. I haven’t even had a boyfriend, okay?”

Qi Qi revealed a radiant smile, making Zhang Guangfa and Sui Jun’s hearts race.

In truth, Guan Wensi wasn’t wrong in saying Qi Qi was a high-level player. She was the kind of girl who was particularly good at winning boys’ hearts and had been a popular figure in high school.

Wherever she was, regardless of how many beauties there were, she was the only goddess, because she mastered various little tricks: acting cute, coquettishly, playing hard to get, fluctuating between hot and cold, and accidental physical contact. Each move tortured the boys endlessly.

But she also had a good grasp of male-female relationships, turning many boys who desperately wanted to date her into her “brothers.”

Using a bit of verbal ambiguity, she kept all her suitors in a state that was more than friendship but less than romance, enjoying their adoration without having to be anyone’s girlfriend, the epitome of being tactful.

However, after graduating from high school, maintaining relationships with her distant “brothers” became difficult and energy-consuming, so Qi Qi planned to find some new “brothers” in university who would selflessly devote themselves to her.

Jiang Qin was originally one of her targets, but after hearing what Senior Zhang said, it seemed Jiang Qin wasn’t that impressive?

Qi Qi had already had many sweet-talking “brothers” and was tired of that type of warm-hearted guy, so she instantly abandoned the idea of pursuing him.

While they were talking, three figures suddenly appeared at the entrance of the playground.

One was Ren Ziqiang, carrying a watermelon; another was the serene Cao Guangyu; and the last was the ordinary-looking Jiang Qin.

The three walked towards the rising sun, their shadows elongated by the brilliant sunlight.

“Old Ren, did you find a nice junior?”

“I did, Brother Jiang. I think Wang Linlin is not bad, she’s my type, seems gentle, and doesn’t look hard to chase.”

“Once you finish delivering this watermelon, don’t do it again.”

Ren Ziqiang stopped, puzzled: “Why? I think I’m quite popular in their class now.”

“If you want to date her, it’s not about dating her whole class. You’ve already established a kind and gentle senior image, now you need to focus on breakthroughs. If the girl is interested in you, her mindset will change at this point. Seeing you being equally nice to other girls will agitate her, and further deliveries will have the opposite effect,” Jiang Qin explained succinctly.

“What should I do next?”

“Try to ask her out, maybe for dinner in the cafeteria, or a drink in the front square, something like that. Just get away from the military training setting a bit, to close the personal gap.”

Cao Guangyu spat: “A drink at Xi Tian? Jiang, you’re too wicked, still thinking about making money at a time like this.”

Jiang Qin glanced at him: “Is there any milk tea shop in the whole school that can beat Xi Tian? If not Xi Tian, what then?”

Ren Ziqiang suddenly pursed his lips: “But I don’t know what to say.”

“Just say something nice. Get to know each other, talk about hobbies, dreams, isn’t that what college students do?”

“Once we’re familiar, should I look for an opportunity to confess?”

Jiang Qin immediately raised his hand to stop him: “Never confess rashly. Once you show that intention, no matter how gentle the girl is, she will become defensive, thinking that since you want to pursue her, she can’t let you succeed easily, instantly making it more difficult.”

Ren Ziqiang shivered: “No wonder last year when I confessed to Pan Xiu, her attitude became a bit colder. But how do you date without confessing?”

“You should imply that you like her, but don’t make it too obvious every time. Simply put, it’s about testing the waters. If she really likes you, after a few such instances, she won’t be able to help herself and will naturally move to the next stage of intimacy with you.”

“Brother Jiang, I’m really clueless. Could you give me some lines to use?”

Jiang Qin raised a finger.

Ren Ziqiang was puzzled: “What does that mean?”

Cao Guangyu sighed: “Don’t you get it? Invite the whole dorm out for a meal, and he’ll tell you!”

“I can do that, I’ll invite them to a meal!”

Jiang Qin glanced at Cao Guangyu, thinking to himself, this kid has improved quite a bit, almost surpassing me. I meant to say invite me for a meal, but with one sentence you’ve involved the whole dorm.

Cao Guangyu lifted his sunglasses, looking at Jiang Qin: “By the way, Jiang, haven’t you never been in a relationship? How come you have so many tricks up your sleeve?”

“I haven’t, but when you reach my age, you’ll understand. Whether it’s business or love, there are similarities in the psychological aspects of offense and defense.”

“This age???”

Ignoring him, Jiang Qin turned back to Ren Ziqiang: “After a few more dates, tell her that you didn’t actually want to bring watermelon to the entire class. You’re not that kind; you only wanted to bring it for her. Watch her reaction.”

“Reaction?”

“If she blushes and gets excited, you’ll smoothly enter a phase of flirtation, and over time you’ll naturally end up together. If she says ‘Thank you, senior, you’re a good person,’ then I suggest you find someone else.”

Ren Ziqiang was deeply impressed after hearing this, thinking to himself that confessing directly was indeed the most foolish way. Who would have known this if Brother Jiang hadn’t mentioned it?

Fortunately, Jiang Qin always says he doesn’t talk about love like a playboy; if he really wanted to be a scoundrel, Zhuang Chen would probably have to help raise his children.

After briefly guiding Ren Ziqiang, Jiang Qin turned away again, sitting down in a shady spot, deliberately avoiding the freshmen to avoid trouble.

However, his change of direction and his abstinent expression attracted the attention of many girls.

Seeing this, Cao Guangyu hissed, thinking to himself that Jiang Qin really knew how to play it cool. Coming to the playground, not showing any interest in the freshmen girls, and sitting far away in a nonchalant manner, Jiang Qin truly played this game well.

“That’s Jiang Qin,” Zhang Guangfa suddenly pointed out.

Guan Wensi looked over: “That one sitting under the tree?”

“Yes.”

“He just seems like a rather clean-cut senior with a good height, but he’s hardly what I would call a ‘crush material.’ Jiang and Song are exaggerating, aren’t they? Where’s the glow?”

Zhang Guangfa immediately revealed a look of agreement: “I told you, this guy is just ordinary-looking. He’s just good with words.”

Qi Qi smiled slightly, propping her chin: “Some girls like men who speak sweet nothings, but after a while, you realize it’s boring. They only talk nicely, but can’t do anything else.”

“Such a person can be a ‘crush material’?”

“Men are visual creatures, women are auditory creatures. For men, if you’re good-looking, you can be a goddess. For women, if you’re good with words, you might become a ‘crush material.’”

Zhang Guangfa was surprised: “Qi Qi, you know so much?”

Qi Qi pursed her lips: “Not really, I just read a lot of romance novels.”

“Qi Qi, are you interested in these sweet-talking men?”

“Not at all.”

Due to the one-sided information received and Zhang Guangfa’s deliberate guidance, their conversation quickly turned Jiang Qin from a ‘crush material’ into a sweet-talking man who was good for nothing else.

Soon after, military training began. The instructor arrived at the playground, blowing a whistle to gather everyone for an hour of standing at attention.

The morning sun wasn’t too hot, so it was somewhat bearable, but Qi Qi was worried about sweating off her makeup.

At that moment, Guan Wensi, standing behind her, suddenly called out: “Qi Qi, look at Jiang over there!”

“Hmm?”

Qi Qi turned her head and saw two girls with great figures and looks approaching him, then sitting down obediently beside Jiang.

What was more peculiar was that these two girls were also in military training uniforms, and their figures and looks were not inferior to her own. Qi Qi felt that if she hadn’t worn makeup, they might have outshone her.
