From the Start as Xue the Fool, I Change My Fate by Entering the Jia Mansion

Xue Pan died suddenly, then woke up as Xue Pan.

The very same “Dumb Xue” who beat a man to death and fled to the capital to escape trouble.

The good news: he knows the Dream of the Red Chamber plot by heart and knows who is about to get into trouble and who is worth investing in.

The bad news: according to the government records, he's already dead.

Worse still, people are nearly stripping the Xue family's shops bare. Behind Lady Wang's “kindness” lies a test, and the Jia mansion is full of watchful eyes.

Xue Pan wants to curse.

But once he's done, he still has to survive.

Since he's a dead man in this life, then...

He'll stay in the shadows and take his time playing the game.
