Siheyuan: The System Helps Jia Dongxu Rise Step by Step

Workplace + System + Revenge

Jia Dongxu’s original role was only a “concept stock”: he never appeared. This time, he’s going to live a spectacular life.

Hongxing Steelworks, 1961.

Jia Dongxu is sweating over a lathe when a mechanical voice suddenly rings out...

“Ding! Good Deeds System successfully bound.”

“Host’s remaining lifespan detected: 59 minutes and 47 seconds.”

Jia Dongxu is stunned.

Originally, he was Qin Huairu’s “short-lived” husband, Banggeng’s never-before-seen father, and a mere background prop in the courtyard, killed in a workshop accident no one could explain.

In this life, the System tells him that as long as he keeps doing good deeds, he can keep living.

And so...

But as he lives longer and climbs higher, the truth gradually comes to light:

His father’s death was no accident.

Who tampered with the workshop machinery all those years ago?

And is his seemingly gentle and virtuous wife, Qin Huairu, really just an “honest, dutiful wife”?

From temporary workshop laborer to Grade Eight fitter, from the workshop to the Ministry of Industry...

Jia Dongxu earns points to stay alive as he tramples his rivals on his way up.

He will live, and live well, until the day he has everyone beneath his feet.

“It’s time to turn the world of the steelworks and the courtyard upside down.”
