   Summary

   Haixia dies in Zhang Hailou’s arms, only for Hailou to awaken back in the past, at the exact moment everything first went wrong. Armed with memories of loss and regret, he refuses to let history repeat itself and begins violently rewriting fate to save the man he loves. But every change comes at a cost, and the deeper he dives into this second chance, the more fragile the boundary between salvation and disaster becomes. In a world where time has already once killed them both, survival is no longer guaranteed; only their obsession with each other remains constant.
