In his previous life, Lu Jun turned against his parents to pursue rock music. His ex-boyfriend deceived him, a scheming woman ruined him, and his manager sabotaged him. In the end, he was driven out of the entertainment industry in disgrace and died miserably in a rented room.
Lu Jun: Rock music? Not a chance.
So...
Step one after being reborn: Get some perspective and say goodbye to the ex-boyfriend who hadn't become his boyfriend yet.
Step two after being reborn: Make a graceful exit from his company.
Step three after being reborn: Smash that crappy bass guitar.
Lu Jun was happily living as a rich young master when, the very next moment, he was apologetically informed that he was an orphan, not a biological member of the Lu family.
And the real young master was about to come home, demanding that Lu Jun be thrown out.
Having just thrown away his rice bowl, Lu Jun prepared to quietly find a factory job tightening screws.

The entertainment industry celebrated when Lu Jun announced his retirement from music.
"Yes! The ghostwriter finally ran out of ideas. So much for his genius songwriter persona!"
"That awful voice sounds like a ghost wailing. It's an assault on the ears!"
"I heard Sister Lu is an adopted fake young master. Now that the real one is back, he has to slink off!"
"The person above is right. Someone even saw him tightening screws at a factory. Hahahaha!"
Lu Jun gloomily went to the bar and grabbed a drink, gulping it down. Only after finishing it did he realize he'd taken the wrong drink. Under the effects of the drug, his consciousness grew hazy. When he woke up, a gloomy, long-haired beauty was lying beside him.
Before he could flee in a panic, the beauty lazily opened his eyes.
"Sorry. I'll take responsibility for you."
Lu Jun: ?
"I heard you went to tighten screws at a factory. Is that true?"
Lu Jun: .
The long-haired beauty held Lu Jun close, his arm marked with bite marks, and soothingly patted his back.
"How about this? Come with me. I'll make you famous."
Lu Jun: ...
With hickeys all over his body, Lu Jun dragged his suitcase to the door and ran into the real young master. He sucked in a sharp breath.
The long-haired beauty kindly reached over to smooth down Lu Jun's cowlick.
"You have nowhere else to go now. Want to come with me?"

Lu Jun had always hated exploitation and unfairness, but suddenly realized there was nothing wrong with being a treasured possession kept by someone else.
Still, every now and then, he missed the days of his previous life, when he was confident, spirited, and free.
If he could do it all over again, would he still smash that crappy bass guitar???
Later, he stood on a stage before millions and basked in boundless glory.
