This is an urban novel about "how not to lose yourself alive".
It took Lin Hao three years to build the golden name of the design institute, but after the sudden death of his best friend and his own collapse, he resigned and returned to the most ordinary days.
He slowed down, started drawing, living, and loving again, and put his broken self back into the world inch by inch.
This is also a story that discusses social realities such as "involution", "flattening", "anti-involution" and "competition".
The characters in the story use their personal experiences to tell us how to live a life that suits us in this era of "you can't win if you don't lie flat".
