My Procrastinating Self Marries into a Wealthy Family

[Comments are closed because the male lead was called cold-blooded and the female lead was called a self-righteous saint. The author doesn't want to see the protagonists get insulted.

Su Chi is an utterly ordinary homebody, doted on as she grew up in a well-off family, and free of worries.

One day, she suddenly gets bound to a System, which tells her she is the heroine of a story about a real heiress and a fake heiress: the real heiress who was switched at birth. The fake heiress has transmigrated into a book and plans to turn the tables as the villainess. She is already gearing up to go after the male lead.

System: You must defend your place as the heroine! Return to the wealthy family! Win over the male lead!

Su Chi: ...Oh. I'm not especially interested in winning him over.

So, when faced with the System's missions, Su Chi brings out her tried-and-true procrastination tactics:

"Give it a little while."

"I'll go in a minute."

"Definitely next time."

She waits for all the missions to fail and for her System binding to be removed.

At a grand banquet filled with clinking glasses, while the fake heiress watches expectantly, the male lead, who is rumored to have no interest in women, takes Su Chi by the hand and sweeps her onto the dance floor.

"Miss Su," he says, wrapping an arm around her waist, his voice low and cool. "Would you be interested in becoming my fiancee?"

Su Chi: "...?"

Lu Guiyuan has encountered countless women who went to great lengths to get close to him.

They all had a System to help them win him over.

And he could see their Systems.

He watched coldly as they tried every trick in the book, mercilessly cutting off every path they could take.

He thought he would never have anything to do with a woman who had a System.

Then he met Su Chi.

She had a System but never tried to win him over. She was a pretty good candidate for marriage.

They got married in a marriage of convenience, each agreeing not to interfere in the other's affairs.

Until one day, the System gave her a mission to kiss him for one minute.

The System counted down from ten minutes, urging her on relentlessly and bombarding her with reminders.

Curled up lazily on the sofa, she brushed it off: "I'll go after I finish this novel. There are only about two hundred chapters left. It'll be quick."

At last, he couldn't take it anymore. He took her phone away and leaned in.

After the kiss, he rested his forehead against hers and said unhurriedly, "Sorry. I broke the agreement that we wouldn't interfere in each other's affairs."

Su Chi: "...?"

A slow-witted, laid-back slacker x a suspicious, scheming man

I have received comments more than once saying that this novel's premise is too similar to another novel. I posted proof on Weibo showing the first version of my blurb. I wrote it before the other work was published. If you're interested, you can go to Weibo and look at the screenshots.

If you still suspect plagiarism after seeing them, please make a comparison chart.

Plagiarism is a very serious accusation for an author. Please don't casually slander anyone.

A friend’s novel recommendation: Is the Agent Losing Money Today? by Li Zi Gao

Pei Xin transmigrates into the body of an utterly obscure talent agent.

She's a nobody, and the idol she manages is even more obscure. She only works for the end of the day, and her salary barely covers breakfast.

Luckily, she gets bound to a Tycoon System.

The more money she loses, the higher her rebate. The more money she makes, the smaller her reward.

Pei Xin: Got it!

Losing money is easy!

Buy a show so obscure it has practically sunk through the floor, then turn it into a rural life reality show!

Make an actor with no acting skills the lead in a martial arts film she produces herself!

Give a singer with zero vocal ability a full production team and release an album!

Invest in a web drama with an entire cast of nobodies and a script so terrible it hurts to look at!

Later...

The guests on the rural life show help farmers sell their products, directly boosting the local GDP. They become honored as one of the "Ten Most Inspiring People," and the show gets a 9.9 rating on Huaban!

The web drama with an all-nobody cast inspires a wave of fan-made videos on Xiao Pozhan, takes over the meme section, racks up over a billion views, and earns so much in revenue that the cast can barely hold onto it!

The actor with no acting skills is hailed as a "Kung Fu superstar." He single-handedly brings martial arts films back to life and ushers in a "Kung Fu era" on the big screen!

The singer with zero vocal ability becomes the king of pop, takes the country by storm, and sets a record for the longest time on the music charts!

Pei Xin: ...

-

Unwilling to give up, Pei Xin storms out to find promising candidates who can help her lose money.

On a film set, a rookie director hangs his head as the production company angrily tells him to pack up and leave.

But in Pei Xin's eyes, a huge "F" floats above his head. He is destined to become the king of terrible films and dominate the Golden Broom Awards!

Pei Xin immediately squeezes her way over. "Looking for a job? Consider our Positive Energy Talent Agency! You pick the script, you choose the actors, and the budget starts at a hundred million!"

With a terrible movie like that, how could she possibly fail to lose money?!

At a talent competition, a trainee fails even the basic skill assessment and is eliminated on the spot.

Pei Xin sees an "E" above her head. Wow, singing 1, dancing 1, acting 1... What an overlooked gem of the entertainment industry!

Sign her! Spend big to train her!

Pei Xin's ventures even take her beyond entertainment, into every walk of life.

Positive Energy Apartments buys an entire building and rents the units out cheaply, only to become the most sought-after rental housing among office workers...

The Positive Energy food delivery app has an incredibly high bar for joining, but its excellent quality and low prices let it monopolize 99% of the market...

The Positive Energy esports team is full of players ranked Iron. They lose every five-player match and know nothing except studying, yet they lead young gamers to take up studying with enthusiasm...

Pei Xin: Excuse me, how is none of this losing money???

-

Ji Ze always thought his life would end that summer.

Until Pei Xin appeared in front of him.

Her eyes shone like stars in the sky. "Ji Ze, from now on, stick with me!"

In that moment, he heard his heart pounding like thunder.
