Body Transmigration + System + Slacker + Sneaky Schemer + Black-Hearted Su Yu, 22, gets a show of force from the start, then settles in to enjoy the gossip and stay out of sight. The story won’t leave you feeling frustrated, and there’s not much angst. It mainly focuses on watching the troublesome men fight among themselves, while the protagonist stays out of it. Most importantly, the protagonist has lots of older sisters.
