The Villainess Stepmother Is a Master of Playing Cute

An Tong transmigrates into a CEO romance novel as the villainous stepmother of the overpowered male lead.

In the near future, she'll murder her husband to seize the family fortune, scheme against the male lead, run over her in-laws, and have a child by another man. She'll do every terrible thing imaginable.

In the end, she'll fall into the male lead's hands and wish she were dead.

Staring at the hundreds of millions in pocket money in her bank account, An Tong falls into thought.

Maybe she doesn't have to become a walking Criminal Code to live a good life?

She wakes up every day in an 800-square-meter bed, enjoys the freshest ingredients flown in from every corner of the world, and gets top-notch service from the household staff. She doesn't have to give birth to her son, and he never bothers her. Her old husband doesn't come home, but still remembers to send money on time. Is this heaven?

Alone in her empty chambers, An Tong covers her mouth every night in her dreams so she won't laugh too loudly.

Until one day, her stepson, who usually treats her like she isn't there, is forced to ask her for help. "I'm at a bar. I need a guardian to come get me..."

An Tong: "Oh?"

Stepson: "One million for showing up."

An Tong: "I'm on my way!"

From then on, An Tong and her stepson develop a mutually beneficial employer-employee relationship. Then one day, she sees her wealthy stepson being humiliated until his face turns red, and rushes over to protect her cub without a second thought.

The handsome man across from them frowns. "This has nothing to do with you. Move aside."

An Tong says righteously, "I'm his stepmother. Who are you to order me around? What gives you the right to meddle with my son?"

The man falls silent.

Her stepson looks at her with a complicated expression. "That's my dad."

The man adds, "My biological dad."

An Tong: "???"

Did her ATM just come to life?

Bai Tao comes first by a mile in the civil service written exam, but the day before her interview, she transmigrates to the interstellar era and becomes a vagrant on a remote, desolate planet.

She's determined to earn that government job!

Later, the advance squad is nearly wiped out, and Bai Tao walks out of the nest alone, carrying the bug queen's head.

An investigator asks her what happened. Bai Tao answers honestly: "I told it I was here to take the civil service exam, and asked it to do me a favor. It agreed."

Investigator: "..." Who do you think you're kidding?

Theme: If everyone gives a little love, the world will be a much better place.
