The Wealthy Heiress Changes Her Fate by Doing Nothing

My new novel, The Wealthy Family's Stepmother Is the Foil, is now available. Please add it to your collection! Song Li found herself transmigrated into the villainess of a tragic romance. Her husband died unexpectedly, leaving her a trillion-yuan inheritance. She had nothing but money, and her loveless, twisted heart drove her to keep courting disaster until she met a tragic end. The System issued her a mission: You have to humiliate the heroine, spread rumors about the male supporting character, grovel to the male lead, and rack up as much hatred as you can. Got it? Song Li looked at the twelve zeroes in her bank balance and the tens of thousands of properties she owned across the country. "...Got it." This wasn't some tragic villainess role. She was living the dream! Who cares about the missions? She was going to slack off. Hehe.jpg Song Li was enjoying a cruise vacation. Only after the System kept prodding her did she tell the butler to send the heroine a little money to "humiliate" her. The heroine, who would later become a business tycoon, said, "Song Li paid off my debts and pulled me out of the gutter. She's the most important person in my life!" Song Li was busy traveling around the world. Only after the System kept prodding her did she halfheartedly buy a ridiculous, mortifying trending topic to "spread rumors" about the male supporting character. The male supporting character, who would later stand on an award podium, said, "I wouldn't be where I am today without Song Li's encouragement. I'm grateful to her!" Song Li was absorbed in shopping sprees. Only after the System kept prodding her did she randomly pick out a little free gift to "grovel to" the male lead. The male lead, who would later bring glory to his country, said, "Song Li gave me the necklace my mother used to wear, reminding me to find my lost sense of self. She's my benefactor!" The System kept urging her... but it couldn't get anywhere. For crying out loud! You're the vicious villainess, the one everyone hates! But now the heroine, the male lead, and the male supporting character are all gathered around you! And people online are begging you to livestream and go on variety shows every day! What is going on? Song Li shrugged like a lazy fish. "...I have no idea." Qi Yan was the villain in the book: ruthless, cold-blooded, and mercurial. After faking his death to escape, he returned under a new identity. When he came back, he found his (former) wife, whom he barely remembered, surrounded by pretty boys, all vying to take his place. They wanted to cuckold him and spend his money with his blessing, too. Meanwhile, his ex-wife was sadly recounting their love story. Qi Yan: "?? Love? We only met once. What love story could there possibly be?" He deliberately approached her and repeated the words they'd exchanged when they first met, hoping to see Song Li panic. Song Li remained calm and even advised him to drink some hangover soup. She wasn't pretending. She'd really forgotten. Qi Yan: "??" Even if you're faking it, could you at least put in some effort? Qi Yan complained, but his actions told another story... He sulked as he embarked on the road of "getting jealous of myself and cuckolding myself." The Wealthy Family's Stepmother Is the Foil Li Zhihuai transmigrated into a novel about a stepmother, as the foil to the heroine. The heroine was gentle and virtuous, honored her in-laws, and raised her stepson. After enduring all kinds of hardships, she finally won their approval, and the whole family lived in harmony. As the foil, Li Zhihuai did the opposite of the heroine at every turn, and met a tragic end. Her husband was a workaholic who was rarely home. Her older stepson was a seventeen-year-old top-tier star in the middle of his rebellious phase, while the younger one was only three and couldn't even feed himself. Li Zhihuai looked down at the little tyke clutching her leg and almost burst into pig-like laughter. A rich husband who never comes home, plus an adorable little kid to play with? What a sweet deal! Shen Tianyu was filming a variety show and brought the camera crew home. He walked in and froze. His poor little brother was being chased around by a puppy, while his vicious stepmother laughed so hard her stomach hurt. His brother hurried over, all worried, bringing her tea and fruit and saying he'd blow on it to make the pain go away. The puppy was rubbing against her ankles, too. !! How dare they bully his little brother? He'd make them pay! He marched over, only to see his stepmother pull his brother behind her and shout sternly, "Call the police! Someone's trespassing!" Shen Tianyu: "..." The production crew and audience: "..." Despite such a huge misunderstanding, Li Zhihuai wasn't flustered at all. She even announced to the camera, "Want to be a stepmother? Be a stepmother who refuses to be defined." Shen Tianyu was furious and prepared to teach Li Zhihuai a lesson! On day one, Li Zhihuai opened a photo album, intending to tell the camera about Shen Tianyu's embarrassing past. Shen Tianyu dashed over and dropped to his knees in a perfectly executed slide. On day two, Li Zhihuai covered the house with Shen Tianyu's photos and showered him with exaggerated praise. The usually conceited Shen Tianyu blushed with embarrassment for the first time. On day three, Li Zhihuai held up Shen Tianyu's failing report card and said languidly, "My legs hurt lately, so I can't go to your parent-teacher meeting for you." Shen Tianyu eagerly massaged her legs and asked, "Is this the right pressure? Could you reconsider going to the meeting?" Shen Tianyu, completely under her thumb, thought: Li Zhihuai is the most vicious stepmother ever! But later, he realized that his frail little brother was getting healthier and healthier thanks to Li Zhihuai's exercise regimen. Li Zhihuai would also step in to clear up misunderstandings about him and clap back at his haters. This stepmother... was actually pretty great. For his and his brother's sake, Shen Tianyu hurried to declare his loyalty. "Stepmom, if you divorce my dad, we'll definitely go with you." The door behind Li Zhihuai opened. The usually refined and aloof Mr. Shen hurried after her with a hair dryer, and heard every word. "Huaihuai, don't be stubborn. You'll catch a cold if you don't dry your hair." After saying that, Mr. Shen turned and fixed his eldest son with a deadly stare. If you dare get in the way of me winning your mother back, don't blame me for putting duty before family! Theme: Be self-reliant and keep striving, explore with enthusiasm, never bow to adversity, and never give up!
