Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.From childhood to adulthood, Luo Zhi didn’t seem to have done anything right.
His biological parents didn’t like him. They only saw an excellent eldest brother, a caring sister, and a sensible stepson in their eyes. The sister whom is well-behaved towards everyone else, only treats him as air. The childhood friend that he grew up with would accept his gifts on the surface, only to turn around and throw it to the stray dogs on the roadside.
When he debuted as a singer, it was not gifts that he received, but countless of threatening letters scolding him for using his family background to oppress others and threatening him to quit the circle. He started his own film and television company, and spent money to hire an eighteenth-tier star to say “Happy Birthday” to him. When the little star unexpectedly exploded into the top stream, it was regarded as a robbery by fans, and it was picked up and scolded all the way to the hot search. The family accidentally fell overboard, and Luo Zhi was immersed in the bone-chilling ice cold water. He could only watch as his always indifferent eldest brother eagerly stretch out his hand to save his adopted brother.
When he was completely engulfed by the darkness, Luo Zhi finally felt that the world was really dull. If there was someone who can love him, let them appear. He wasn’t able to find them anyways.
After waking up in the hospital, he leaned back against the bed. He didn’t care current state of health nor did he care about the treatment. He was no longer interested in anything. But this time, everything was different.
His parents kept going to top hospitals and begged countless doctors just to save his life. The eldest brother’s eyes were red while he took care of him. His sister cried to the point of fainting by his bedside.
With scarlet eyes and fierce methods, he frantically took revenge on the eighteenth-tier star who slandered him at the beginning. He was inexplicably on the hot search once again, but this time the entry became #The whole world is waiting for Luo Zhi to come back#.
Later, the whole world did not wait for Luo Zhi.
However, someone familiar with the matter revealed that the Ming family, who built an entire maritime business empire and sank a top-level luxury cruise ship worth hundreds of billions of yuan, not only has another young master, but also the youngest captain who sails the world.

he became deaf and injured physically. After he was saved by ML, there was still the instinct of MC to protect his body, showing he was beaten/abused before (kidnapping incident. You will really get angry as you read how indifferent and selfish his family in the succeeding chapters. The MC has a tumor that caused his hearing and sight impaired. Fortunately all is well at the end
I'm wondering why there was no one who greeted MC in his 23rd birthday despite having so many friends at his work. I'm not sure the reason for this since I haven't finished the novel yet
A space in which pathological narcissism, hysteria, and antisocial traits collide, always at the expense of the only normal person. "I've never done anything wrong, it's always your fault. And if I can't blame it on you, I will find someone else to blame." Things that can be swept under a rug will stay there forever, things that can't will be twisted until they fit into a comfortable worldview the perpetrators can profit from and believe themselves to be innocent. I've never seen such an accurate portrayal of this kind of people, and family, neither one that is so detailed and medically correct when it comes to physical and somatoform illnesses.
How the writer showed MC's physical and mental decline was shilling, it was so uncomfortably true that it made me wonder if the author has personal experience with it. Of course, there is revenge, just not in the completely overdramatic, brainless way often seen in novels.
Instead, it's carried out mostly by the very own perpetrators against each other and even themselves, slowly dragging them down into madness and mutual destruction. "We are all going to hell", a quote from the novel at the start of their decline, which sums it up well. The characters are fleshed out in great detail, all of them, their relationships are complicated, no one is a meaningless cannon fodder, no side characters with little significance. ML is a steady ally subtly pushing chess pieces on a crowded board, he just has to push them a little and watch how they maim each other, he isn't OP and has a bottom line that he never crosses, if only for MC's sake.
His character is deep, full of faults that he's trying hard to make up for, and he has people by his side that he trusts enough to let them act on their own so he has more time to take care of MC.
Even this is such a unique point that it's worth pointing out, he actively educates himself about MC's physical and mental illnesses, actively takes part in his rehabilitation, and learns from his mistakes. There's no magical healing for MC, just a hard battle to get back to normal, to live with serious impairments and still find happiness.
MC is a brave and miserable person whose resilience has been drained to an extent that nearly caused his death, he's someone who, despite it all, finds joy in many things and holds unto his smile until the very end. The novel can be divided into three parts, it's not for those who want the focus to always be on the MC and ML. During the first, we follow MC, mostly from his own perspective, and watch how a bright young man drastically deteriorates and get to know who the main actors are. The second hardly involves MC, it's from the perspective of different perpetrators, how they fall from their mighty place into mad obscurity, hated by the world and each other.
All of them have different ways and outcomes, it matches their personality and circumstances. For the last, we really get to know the ML and finally see MC's recovery, his struggle to get better and build a new life. You can find a lot of beautiful symbolism between the lines, themes that run through the whole novel but are never in your face, and you have to read carefully to appreciate them fully. This isn't a story for everyone, it has a dark tone and you need a fairly in-depth understanding of medicine and psychology to get the full experience; it's slow and the themes are tragic, people who are easily triggered should be careful. Pick this novel if you want a mature, professional and realistic one that's far outside of the range most webnovels are in, read something else if you like dog blood drama and face-slapping done by a powerful MC/ML.
If you like classics such as "The Remains of the Day" or anything written by Margaret Eleanor Atwood, then you'll likely enjoy this one as well.
Ah, btw, I may have some answer to @ylial from comment below.
From mc' brother's perspective, since MC came back 13 years ago, he no longer celebrated his birthday. And it looks like, just like what happened in the first scene, it was the adapted child who became the celebrant each year in MC's birthday.
And with MC's personality, MC's coworkers might not even know it was MC's birthday.
The only time MC celebrated his birthday was when he was tricked by his sister in the hotel, which became his black material in the internet.
This is a fictional world, as long as MC don't say anything, no one will know it.
Actually maybe the Ren something something might even blocked those caring words like he did when MC first almost died– the scene in the car.
And here I thought you guys will doubt the fact that ML practice becoming MC's fan for three years that he came so late in the scene. Anyway, even if came. late he still came. Better late then never.
Well, heroes came late every time anyways.
Anyway, looking at it in different perspective, this is actually a tale of two characters.
Lou Zhi and aunt Ren.
Looking at these two, we'll see they are the same. Ren family and Lou ain't much different.
Aunt Ren has a best friend name mother Lou, while Lou Zhi has a best friend name surname Ren.
Surname Ren has anti social tendencies since he was a child, and aunt Ren knew it, that's why he gave Lou Zhi a car. And that's why she always cried to surname Ren to get away from Lou Zhi, and crying to Lou Zhi for him to run away.
Despite being a kind and gentle woman, Aunt Ren has a child like that, meaning it could only be attributed to his father.
And the fact that Ren family blamed all her death to Lou Zhi... when it was Ren something's fault.
It was said that aunt Ren has an Illnes, and she have a sudden attack, Lou Zhi was there but he didn't have her medicine, so she died. In fact it was Ren something... so he killed his mother, such scaldal... So Ren family blamed it on Lou Zhi, maybe because Lou Zhi insisted on aunt ren's wish to have her ashes on the sea?
Or maybe like how Song Family, in Transmigrated as the Villain Cat, blamed everything on Fu Xiao, because they can't have the fact that Fu Xiao was imprisoned in the closet so in fact he doesn't even know his grand father died or something.
Anyway, I think these scene portray the same idea as Lou Zhi loving the sea to get away from all the sad things namely Lou family. I think aunt Ren also wanted to get away from Ren family but she can't.
The villa by the sea is aunt ren's villa.
Actually when seeing it like this, I made me think that without ml, MC's ending will become like aunt ren's ending.
Dying under his family's hands. And that's what happened in the cruise.
Without ml, MC will die just like that.
Meanwhile, Jiang? Something, the adapted child. I don't think there's something wrong with him, except for MC, he's the only normal person in Lou family.
With this kind of family, actually, I think what the adapted child did is justifiable?
This is not a false / true young master switch at broth story. It was the young master was missing, the family replace him with another story. Growing up with such a family, more so very close– care taker of an old woman who has mental illness, anyway who has a perfectly healthy mind won't last long.
In fact, he said: He doesn't want to be a care taker of that lunatic woman. In his pov. And his been acting for 13 years who won't feel suffocated in there.
In fact, of MC wasn't so holy mother character they might even became a great partner/friend.
The cruise scene might be the last thing that made the adapted son's thread snap. Hes afraid too, so he tore his face and said everything. It's a great tactics. After he was beaten to the hospital, no Lou family care about him anymore.
The biggest flaw in this novel is the fact the only ML reached out for MC. Director Gou knows everything as well... forget about MC's coworkers who could do little about it, what about ml?
Where is he when MC debuted and was blacked to the point of retiring?
ML became MC's fan when he saw him on the bonfire scene. And it was ten years ago.
Because from ml's perspective, MC was just getting good at playing a guitar just then.
And what about those rich people who knew mc?
From what I understand in the novel, MC is very famous public figure. He's a well known designer, and almost all the things attributed to the adapted son was all MC's doing. We only get a glimpse of them on the cruise scene so that Lou brother would doubt the adapted son.
Then later, I dunno in father Lou's perspective. He hated Lou Zhi so much because almost every business partners and rich people blame him for his disappearance and questioned him for not looking for him for three years. Asking him why they didn't find him for three years and why MC himself came back by himself.
This is why Lou family almost crumbled, but Lou father threw all the blame to Lou Zhi.
But we'll, understand– the author wrote this novel not for face slapping, but for healing. The author mentioned the reason why MC was in such state, wrote the ending of the people who made MC that way, then made a really detailed progress on how MC healed.
Actually, the characters of this novel could be summary as MC, ml, the Lou family, aunt ren and Ren best friend.
Only mc's past was detailed because it should be. The author need to write how much pain MC endure his life, so that the moment he healed, it will bring so much impact to the readers.
That's why, the author didn't wrote any outsider's perspective.
This will became a disturbance.
Actually I think having a friend will do more harm than good to MC. After there's the obsessed Ren something something luring behind the scene.
According to Ren something's assistant, Ren something knew MC's every move and action, even his whereabouts
Meaning Ren something has someone to follow MC all the time.
And the reason why the adapted son and MC became an enemy, is the adapted son wanted to destroy Lou family so he could become free, while MC wanted to protect his family.
The reason Lou family persist to this day, is became of MC.
I think if this is a vest dropping novel and face slapping novel, the moment MC died, even without ml, Lou family will not last long. Then mc's vest will slowly fall down.
The author wrote about healing novel, so except for ml, these people didn't exist. But if we look at this in other perspective, if ML could love MC just by seeing him smile, dance and sing with his guitar around the bon fire, what about the others.
If you look at it in another perspective, the reason why Lou family was always crumbling was became MC's friends/admirers was doing something behind the scene. But the unsuspecting MC will save the crumbling sand castle by casting another layer of wet sands.
Well, this isnt a face slapping novel so... face slapping is crispy and very good to hear, it so satisfying. But this is directly breaking the bone, and the sound of the bone breaking is very scary.
Well, that's it...
But I will forgive ML for not coming to MC earlier, after all he's been on the sea all year round. I remember I have a classmate, she's dad was a sailor, and they could only contact him every three months, and he could only go home onece of twice a year.
Anyway it's HE.... sheesh... It's a very good story to read when you wanted to cry.
okay, I just read until chapter 43. And my tears keep coming out... THIS IS SOO SAD!!! am really angry with them. why they're treats our MC like that?! why they're so s*upid!! argghhh am really upset and sad at the same time, my heart really hurts when I read it...
actually, as far what I read now, the annoying adopted child has not yet been explained what kind of reply he got for lying to everyone, he didn't show up!!! I'm really angry to him. My rating is actually only 4, but because I like how the author writing this and the emotion that comes from reading this, Soo I give full stars
