Jiang Bai dies every time he turns 20. On his 21st rebirth, a lead singer from a boy band quits, and upon seeing that familiar face, he decides to come out of seclusion to audition. Everyone says the boy band is doomed, replacing their perfect star with a bumpkin who can’t sing and lacks culture. Until— Jiang Bai’s new album debuts. In its second week, it sells millions, sweeping the music charts. On a variety sports show, he wins gold in the 200m freestyle, beating an Olympic champion. In an all-star mystery escape room reality show, he’s MVP every episode. On a national treasure exploration program, he effortlessly discusses history and science. At an international music exchange, he performs a multilingual mashup of hits in 21 languages, going viral overnight. …Only then do people learn he’s the genius who dropped out of Tsinghua and Peking University five years ago. Nothing Jiang Bai does shocks anyone anymore—until the year-end awards ceremony, on the last night of his 20th year, when he’s set to rebirth again and reset the world. Staring at Gu Xu in the audience, he decides to live recklessly: “Fine, let’s be together.” The internet crashes. Disaster! The nation’s boyfriend and the nation’s heartthrob are now a couple! The next day— He opens his eyes. A man with a gentle smile pinches his stiff cheek, murmuring tenderly, “Good morning.” Jiang Bai: “…” Damn. This time, he didn’t rebirth.
