Siheyuan: My Shameless Life

Bu Xiangdong transmigrates into the world of a period novel and discovers that the original owner had two friends: Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. Armed with his foreknowledge of future events, Bu Xiangdong launches a series of counterattacks, making himself a target for the local troublemakers. Fortunately, Bu Xiangdong has a golden finger called the “Provocation System.” Whenever he successfully stirs up conflict between other people, the System rewards him with all kinds of benefits. Bu Xiangdong figures that instead of exhausting himself dealing with these problems alone, he might as well provoke everyone in the courtyard into chaos. He decides to cast off moral restraints and enjoy a thoroughly unscrupulous life. With the Provocation System, he successfully pits Jia Dongxu, Liu Guangtian, Yan Jiecheng, and others against one another. The System keeps chiming to announce each successful provocation and grant Bu Xiangdong a corresponding reward. As a result, the courtyard house, once jointly managed by three senior residents, becomes a place filled with arguments and chaos. Jia Dongxu mercilessly berates Yi Zhonghai, Liu Guangtian angrily beats up Liu Haizhong, and Yan Jiecheng starts plotting against his own father and demands that the family split up. This setup tells the story of a protagonist who uses the System’s abilities to change the world around him. However, it is worth noting that such behavior is unacceptable in real life because it goes against the basic moral principles of honesty and kindness, and can lead to serious consequences. In real life, the best way to solve problems and improve one’s surroundings is through communication, understanding, and cooperation, not by sowing discord.
