[Sorry, this book is on hiatus]
Jiang Yue was bound to an online-dating System. The System told her she was the male lead’s stepmother in a period novel. In the story, she tried every means to stop him from being acknowledged by his birth family. When his father wanted to support him, she did everything she could to stop that, too. She was the biggest obstacle on his path to success. In the end, after the male lead rose to fame and fortune, he sent her to live behind iron bars.
Jiang Yue: “In my past life I killed and robbed, and in this life I got tricked into marriage by my husband, then sent to prison by my son.”
After being bound to the System, Jiang Yue only meant to play around and pass the time. She never expected to end up the richest person in the country.

The System swore Jiang Yue was a Host worthy of being written into the history books.
Other Hosts used the System’s features to watch romantic movies together and grow closer. Jiang Yue used them to watch English-language films and practice her speaking, then ranked first in her entire department.
Other Hosts used the gift exchange feature to improve their partners’ affection for them. Jiang Yue scoured the shops for professional books to expand her knowledge.
Other Hosts used the System to find happiness and build a beautiful life. Jiang Yue took her husband in one hand and her career in the other, and rose to the pinnacle of life.
System: Hey, could you show me a little respect?

After being bound to the System, Jiang Yue took one look at her rather ordinary-looking “online date” and offered the System some sincere advice: “Couldn’t you find someone better-looking?”
System: Host, your tragic fate stems from judging people by their looks. You married the male lead’s father because of his looks, and then promoted the male lead because of his looks, setting the stage for his later revenge. You need to treat everyone fairly!
Jiang Yue: “That makes sense.”
But she didn’t listen.
Jiang Yue picked and chose until she found the most handsome “date.” Every day afterward, she was secretly glad she hadn’t listened to the System.

After becoming the richest person in the country in his previous life, Liu Jun hadn’t even had a single good day before he inexplicably returned to the time when he’d first left home to work. He didn’t panic when someone framed him and beat him up, nor when he had to sleep rough beneath a bridge. But when the time came to look for Jiang Yue, he panicked. Shouldn’t Jiang Yue be in Pengcheng by now? Who was this woman entrepreneur from the capital in the newspaper?
