The Transmigration Bureau has launched a vacation activity called "Go Back to the Past and Raise Yourself":
[Here, you will meet your younger self. You are his guardian, guide, and witness. See him, accept him, lift him up...]
In response, outstanding employee Shen Que said, "Get close to me, use me, win me over."

As the real young master who had been switched at birth, Shen Jianwei once had hopes for his family. Unfortunately, the wealthy family put their interests above all else, and he was worth nothing to them.
When his fantasies came crashing down, he quickly accepted reality. He worked on bettering himself while playing the good boy to gain whatever benefits he could.
After a year of private tutoring, Shen Jianwei transferred to an elite academy under the identity of the fake young master's twin brother.
The school had a rigid hierarchy and bullying was rampant. The children of the rich and powerful enjoyed tormenting scholarship students.
The scholarship students had a rough time, with one exception: Shen Que. The wolves who bared their teeth at him would turn into obedient dogs in a flash, all scrambling to please him.
Shen Jianwei was bewildered.
Shen Jianwei pondered.
Shen Jianwei was eager to give it a try.
After quietly observing for a long time and preparing for the worst, he made his move.
[ Ding! The Strategy System has been bound to you. ]

The System's punishments were harsh, but its rewards were generous.
As long as he raised Shen Que's favorability, health, wealth, power, and status would all be within easy reach.
The privileged elite competed fiercely. They studied Shen Que's likes and dislikes, tried to read his mind, and did everything they could to cater to him, all while guarding against one another, fishing for information, and sabotaging each other.
Nobody took the newly arrived Shen Jianwei seriously.
He looked exactly like Shen Que, but their circumstances couldn't have been more different.
One was a wealthy young master who had everything, while the other was a poor, struggling scholarship student.
The privileged elite were certain Shen Jianwei wouldn't get anywhere.
Who knew he would be the one Shen Que favored most?
Before Shen Jianwei could become everyone's target, someone accidentally discovered that winning him over could be an indirect way to win Shen Que over. Soon, everyone else followed suit.
Shen Jianwei: ?
Shen Jianwei accepted it gladly and invited his whole family to join the fray.

Seeing the fake young master abandoned by his family, his friends change sides with the wind, and his rivals kick him while he's down, he grew so anxious he couldn't sleep. In the middle of the night, he called Shen Que to report:
"Shen Jianwei has a Strategy System. He's trading your true feelings for benefits!"
At that moment, Shen Jianwei was pressed against Shen Que's chest as Shen Que stroked his back and coaxed him to sleep. At those words, his eyelashes fluttered.
He had known this day would come and calmly waited for his sentence.
Instead, Shen Que chuckled at the person on the other end of the phone and asked, "Why can't you handle losing?"

[Blood ties really are powerful]
Thread starter: Give him a luxury car and a mansion, favorability +1 +1. Secretly say one bad thing about sjw, favorability -10, haha
1F: Thanks for the warning
2F: You're so stubborn. You still won't change your tune after all that?
3F: So jealous of you rich people
7F: sq and sjw are obviously brothers. Did sq get switched at birth with szm?
16F: What are you talking about? Who are these people? Stop using abbreviations
65F: Why is sq so hard to deal with? I'm so fed up. When this is over, I'll make him pay
226F: They wear matching brother outfits every other day, switching up their watches and tie clips. Is it really wrong to praise their close brotherly bond? Why is sjw giving me the cold shoulder!
