There are many people in this world who hate He Jiangwu.
His father hates him for being born under an ill-starred fate and causing his mother's death.
His friends hate him for acting aloof and looking down on everyone.
His lovers hate him because it's impossible to tell whether he's sincere when he speaks with a smile.
So they treated him coldly, betrayed him, and abandoned him.
Later, He Jiangwu stopped bothering anyone. He died alone in a snowy night when every family was gathered together.
Then they began to miss him.
His father stared dazedly at the only picture of the two of them together, taken many years ago.
His friend played the song they had once performed together as children until his fingertips bled.
His lover knelt before his grave without rising, forehead pressed to the memorial portrait, sobbing uncontrollably.
In spirit form, He Jiangwu watched everyone's self-indulgent displays of grief with boredom.
Then he got ready to be reborn.
But before he had floated even a mile, he fainted.
When he woke, he was back by their side.
He Jiangwu: What a drag.
He refused to believe it and tried again.
Then he woke up again, and the cycle repeated.
He Jiangwu gave up resisting.
He settled down and waited quietly.
Waited for them to stop longing for him and let go of their attachments.
Waited until he was truly free.
Most people didn't disappoint him.
Their lives returned to normal. They laughed again, socialized again, and cried over other things.
Little by little, they stopped thinking of him.
Except for one person.
Chen Su, the lover he had raised as a younger brother while he was alive.
He Jiangwu watched helplessly as this madman used bionic technology to create another version of "him."

#Younger Male Lead, 1v1, HE
#Groveling Warning! Soap Opera Drama Warning!
#The first volume is set in the near future. In volumes two and three, the protagonists transmigrate to a future several centuries later. Since the latter two volumes make up most of the story, I discussed it with my editor and placed the book in the futuristic fiction category. It's not miscategorized!~
