Coming soon: My Short-Lived Stepmother Role in the Male Lead's Story

Blurb:

Chu Mengyao wakes up one morning to discover she's become the male lead's short-lived stepmother in a book.

She doesn't have long to live, and she cruelly causes the male lead's little brother's death, triggering the male lead's drastic change in personality.

She counts the days on her fingers and immediately decides to go enjoy herself.

But before she can even leave, a cute little dumpling hugs her and calls her Mother. Behind him stands an even more ferocious big dumpling.

Looking at the male lead as a child, Chu Mengyao trembles like a leaf and can only meekly go back to raise the kids.

Later, after hoping and hoping that her time to die would never come, the dumplings' father returns.
