Top-tier star Bai Mianmian transmigrates into a male-oriented wish-fulfillment novel, becoming the male supporting character's stepmother and the foil to the male lead's family.
The male lead's family may be only an ordinary wealthy household, but his biological parents are loving and harmonious, and he is ambitious, with a bright future ahead of him.
The male supporting character's family, on the other hand, is a top-tier wealthy household. But his father is away on business all year, leaving only a foolish stepmother and a spoiled son at home. The two can't stand each other and fight tooth and nail over their five million a month in allowance. Naturally, they end up being wiped out by the male lead and his family.
Before transmigrating into the book, Bai Mianmian earned 2.08 million a day just from her daily pay. She laughs. "You're fighting over pocket change like that?"
But Bai Mianmian soon discovers that all kinds of businesses are thriving in this male-oriented novel, except for the entertainment industry, which doesn't exist at all.
Bai Mianmian: "Now that's something I know about."
Looking at her sixteen-year-old stepson with his perpetually sour face, Bai Mianmian smiles faintly.
"Hey, you. Come here. Auntie has a business proposition for you."

The reality show about rich heirs experiencing rural life, planned from start to finish by Bai Mianmian, officially begins airing.
On the show, the male lead's family works hard, helps one another, builds a house together, and works the fields together. They are a picture of harmony and affection.
Bai Mianmian, by contrast, brings her stepson on the show. He has to carry her luggage, make her bed, clean her room, help her with farmwork, and even get up in the middle of the night to make her a late-night snack.
The male lead's mother is gentle and virtuous, with no makeup on.
Bai Mianmian, the stepmother, wears flamboyant makeup, has a fiery temper, and doesn't hesitate to order her stepson around.
The show becomes an instant hit, and both kinds of families go viral.
Bai Mianmian and her stepson become famous!
The male lead and his mother become famous too!
