Synopsis
After a lifetime of desperate attempts to earn affection from a family that viewed him as an outsider and a love interest who ultimately murdered him, Ai Chu is granted a second chance at seventeen. The horror of his previous end—dying while his own brother removed his oxygen mask—fuels a sudden, sharp pivot toward indifference. Rather than seeking revenge, he chooses a path of total avoidance, treating his former tormentors and the obsessive He Jinglin as hazards to be bypassed. To secure his freedom, he makes a calculated move by confessing to Tang Yi, a man known for a violent and possessive nature, hoping the association will repel the original protagonist. The tone shifts from the heavy trauma of betrayal to a lighter, more detached atmosphere as Ai Chu pursues a life of leisure. Those who appreciate watching a once-submissive character reclaim their autonomy through apathy will find this satisfying, though those seeking a high-stakes battle of wits may find the protagonist's desire for a quiet beach life too passive.

Editorial Review
At only sixty-seven chapters, this completed work offers a concise trajectory from tragedy to tranquility. The brevity ensures the plot moves swiftly, avoiding the stagnation often found in longer rebirth stories. A significant strength lies in the psychological shift of the protagonist; the transition from a desperate pleaser to a detached observer is handled with a refreshing lack of sentimentality. However, the limited chapter count is also a drawback. The sudden shift in the attitudes of the supporting cast—where former enemies suddenly show affection—feels somewhat abrupt and lacks the gradual build-up necessary for a truly convincing redemption arc. While the conclusion provides a sense of closure, the overall experience feels more like a focused character sketch than a fully realized epic. Given the low visibility of the title, it remains a hidden gem for those who prefer short, completed stories over sprawling, unfinished serials.
