Background / History

Jiang Qin is a reborn university student whose memories of his previous life shape both his aversion to romance and his unusually mature approach to business. While attending Linchuan University, he establishes himself as an entrepreneur through the 208 Entrepreneurship Base, initially building campus-facing ventures such as promotional operations, work-study programs, milk-tea shops, and delivery services. 109 155 172

His early business decisions favor controlled experimentation over reckless expansion. When promoting Linchuan University, he orders 10,000 durable round fans rather than more expensive folding fans, treating the campaign as a market test. 53 He later uses public-interest content to draw attention to an elderly fruit seller, directing his employees to promote her story and helping her sell her goods. 109

Jiang Qin expands beyond campus by developing Group Buying, building merchant networks, regional delivery systems, and marketing services. He secures a top-floor office in Wanzhong Mall by exchanging a detailed reform manual with He Yijun, then recruits Yue Zhu and Manager Bao to support human-resources and administrative work. 230 His business eventually develops into a nationwide operation with large-scale logistics and customer-service facilities in his hometown of Jizhou. 730

Although he initially insists that Feng Nanshu is merely a “Good Friend,” their relationship gradually becomes openly romantic. He brings her home for New Year’s Eve dinner, integrates her into his family life, and ultimately returns to Jizhou with Feng Nanshu as his wife and their daughter, Jiang Ainan. 207 278 730

Appearance

Jiang Qin is a well-proportioned, upright young man whose appearance becomes increasingly associated with the confidence and authority of a successful entrepreneur. Others initially consider him merely somewhat handsome, but his composure, achievements, and mature bearing make him widely regarded as a campus “Male God.” 143 150 323

• Often carries himself with casual confidence, including walking with his hands in his pockets. 450
• Wore a black coat during late autumn, contrasting with Feng Nanshu’s white coat. 143
• Maintains abdominal muscles through exercise, partly because Feng Nanshu likes touching them. 403
• Later projects the presence of a business leader through his management of a nationwide company. 468

Personality

Jiang Qin is practical, sharp-minded, and exceptionally confident. He routinely treats timing, public perception, and human motivation as factors to be analyzed and used. His call to Hu Maolin during a Winter Solstice family dinner exemplifies this thinking: he chooses a moment when Hu is likely to be warm-hearted yet unable to prolong the conversation. 171

He is also playful, thick-skinned, and fond of praising himself. When his team asks how he managed the difficulties of early entrepreneurship, he attributes it to “a little bit of talent and handsomeness.” 218 He frequently acts indifferent to admiration, jealousy, and romantic attention, often either missing or dismissing the feelings others develop toward him. 268 334

Despite his calculating side, Jiang Qin is protective and generous toward people he considers his own. He supports his employees, helps business partners, protects a female employee from unwanted attention by changing seats with her, and shows particular patience and care toward Feng Nanshu. 109 374 470 558 His rebirth leaves him fearful of creating new regrets; as his feelings for Feng Nanshu deepen, he admits that he once worried he might suddenly return to his former life. 675
