Description
Ji Yan has been put through three “showdowns between the real and fake young masters”. When he was the real young master, the fake young master was pure and everyone’s favorite. He went on to inherit the family business, while the real young master died miserably. When he was the fake young master, the real young master was self-reliant, being admired by everyone. He eventually inherited the family business, while the fake young master died miserably. In short, they were both miserable deaths. Ji Yan: “…” This time, he transmigrated as a real young master again. Ji Yan collapsed to the ground. If there’s anyone out there who wants to be the real young master, they can have it. I quit! What’s more, his starting point this time was a major bomb. The fake young master is called Ruanruan. He has soft collarbones, a delicate and rosy face, speaks softly, and is spoiled to death by his three brothers. Ji Yan: The game’s already lost to start with. Instead of wasting his time on fighting for favor, he might as well go clean the village toilets. Before his miserable death comes, he will do something he loves. …… And so, a top star was born in the entertainment industry. When Ji Yan’s background was revealed, fans said, “Thank you, Ji family, for not recognizing our idol.”

My Thoughts on I Don’t Want to Be the Young Master of This Family
First Impressions
"I Don’t Want to Be the Young Master of This Family" initially hooked me with its intriguing premise: a protagonist reborn for the third time. I went in expecting a rollercoaster of revenge and dramatic twists, but it turned out to be a surprisingly mellow slice-of-life story set against the backdrop of the entertainment industry. The focus quickly shifted from past lives to Ji Yan's present-day journey of healing and finding genuine connections.
What Works Well
The novel shines in its portrayal of Ji Yan's growth. He's a protagonist I found myself rooting for as he navigates the challenges of being an idol, not just for the fame but for the sheer joy of creating music and performing. The slow-burn romance and the found family trope are executed beautifully, creating a warm and fuzzy feeling that permeates much of the story. The attention to detail in the music creation and acting processes adds a layer of authenticity that I appreciated. It's clear the author put thought into crafting the world of aspiring musicians.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the overall story, I can see why some readers might be frustrated by the pacing. It is quite slow, and the initial premise of multiple transmigrations feels somewhat underutilized. The main conflict with Ji Ruan doesn't get the resolution that I was hoping for. Also, the acting arcs, while important for Ji Yan's character development, sometimes felt somewhat disjointed from the main narrative.

Final Verdict
Despite my reservations about certain aspects, I still found "I Don’t Want to Be the Young Master of This Family" to be an enjoyable read. It's a character-driven story with a focus on healing, friendship, and the pursuit of dreams. If you're looking for a fast-paced revenge plot, this might not be for you. But if you appreciate a slower, more introspective story with a heartwarming core, then I would recommend giving it a try.
