Blurb saved on June 25, 2026
Su Nian, the devil client who terrifies the industry, has slashed a total of a hundred million from contractors' budgets. Chosen by the Cannon-Fodder-Who-Digs-His-Own-Grave System, he is yanked into a melodramatic angst novel, where he becomes a vicious, newly widowed stepmother in a wealthy family.
The System requires him to torment the family's three unfortunate stepsons, squeeze every last coin out of them, earn a hundred million, and ultimately be avenged on by the calculating eldest son, ending in disgrace and ruin to complete the storyline.
At their first meeting, Su Nian looks up at the three “kids” standing six foot one in front of him.
Su Nian: System, where can I go die for a bit?
System: Don't panic, Host! We've got a super useful golden finger!
[⚠ Golden finger program failed to load!]
[⚠ The melodramatic angst novel server is overloaded. Switching to shared server mode!]
[Loading the “Competitive Tryhard” System...]
[Loading the “White Lotus” System...]
[Loading the “Beloved by All” System...]
Su Nian: These are all my golden fingers?
System (sheepishly): That's right, that's right...
Su Nian: Well, I'll put them to use, then!
[Your second son's marriage of convenience is finally about to fall apart after all your efforts to sabotage it. You take the opportunity to have, ]
The “Competitive Tryhard” System, a showboating workaholic in the legal department, draft the divorce agreement.
Su Nian: “This version 18.1.0 of your divorce proposal isn't up to your level. I had high hopes for you, but now I'll have to reconsider.”
The showboating workaholic: “Please don't be disappointed in me! I'll make sure to fulfill the requirement: ‘How to transfer the son's shares to his stepmother after he leaves with nothing.’”
[Your third son has someone he loves in his heart, but keeps stringing along girls as substitutes. You use, ]
The “White Lotus” System, a scheming yet delicate drama student, to imitate his true love.
Su Nian: “It's not bad, but... hmm, it's missing something. You know what I mean? I've hired ten famous directors to give you comprehensive coaching. Go back and polish it a few more times.”
The scheming, delicate girl: “Thank you for the training and the connections! I'll make sure he willingly transfer that limited-edition supercar into your name!”
[The company is facing a PR crisis after its spokesperson is exposed. You take the opportunity to, ]
Arrange for the “Beloved by All” System, a sweet, adorably clumsy beauty, to become the new spokesperson. No matter what she does, she's adorably clumsy and cute, impossible not to love.
Su Nian: “Try a few more new cute-and-clumsy poses in front of the mirror today. We'll go over them at a meeting later.”
The adorably clumsy beauty: “Brother Su! Everyone loves the way I spill coffee. They gave me so much money! I'll transfer it all to you!”
Before long
Su Nian waves his hand grandly: “Come on, say our slogan one more time!”
All the golden finger users: “Good, great, excellent! I'm awesome, I'm amazing, I'm the best!”
System: ...Did I accidentally wander into some kind of cult?
Su Nian: Hah. You don't understand the power of a client.
