After working overtime for three days and nights, xx suddenly died at their desk. When they opened their eyes again, they found they had transmigrated into a namesake villainous cannon-fodder character in an old-school domineering CEO angst novel.
The original owner was a pitiful biological daughter who had only just been brought back to her family. She was timid, insecure, stupid, inexperienced, and prone to tears, with only a pretty face to her name.
Worse still, she had fallen madly in love with the original novel’s male lead, a man scandalous enough to warrant two full episodes on a crime show. She became a purebred, championship-level doormat, only to end up with a substitute’s identity.
In the end, after causing trouble, she was discovered and brutally punished by the male lead. A heavy truck left her paralyzed from the neck down in a vegetative state.
After remembering the original owner’s miserable fate, xx closed their eyes and fell silent.
In their head, Wish System No. 052 kept chattering away.
“Host, what’s wrong? Don’t go to sleep!”
xx: I’m not sleeping. I’m about to die.
“Just complete the mission and win over the target, and you can change the ending!”
052 encouraged them. “I’m a gold-medal System. I’ve had more Hosts than you have money in your bank account. Don’t be scared!”
“Ask me anything you want!”
xx took a deep breath, then silently tugged open the elastic waistband of their pants. 052 immediately screamed in their head.
“What are you doing?!”
“That’s the biggest problem.”
“Come on, tell me: how is a man supposed to play a wicked female lead and a biological daughter? Did you pick the wrong person?!”
**
Lured by the 100-million-yuan legal, after-tax reward and a detached villa with a 200-square-meter floor plan, xx accepted the mission after all.
Fine, they’d wear women’s clothes! So what if they had to wear skirts? Nobody should have to turn down money!
To make it up to them, 052 also agreed to two requests.
First, change the target. If they were going to cling to someone powerful, they might as well cling to the most powerful one! Rather than fawning over the male lead, a walking legal scandal and a complete idiot, they would go after the true crown prince of the capital’s elite circle, xxx. By seniority, he was the male lead’s uncle!
Second, reroute the electric-shock punishment for failing the mission, and connect it to the target instead!
They were working this hard. If the mission still failed, then the target had to be the problem.
If you can’t solve the problem, then you can only deal with the person who caused it. The target already had such a happy life, so he could afford to make a few concessions!

After more than twenty years of smooth sailing, xxx, the crown prince of the capital’s elite circle, woke up one day with a System in his head.
The thing, which called itself a Redemption System, said this world was actually a novel, and the author had abandoned it. To keep the world running properly, he had to complete missions and earn enough redemption points. His redemption target was none other than xx, the cross-dressing young master recently found by the X family.
xxx refused. He had no interest in a million yuan, which wouldn’t even cover the change in his account, and he had no desire to be some kind of savior. On the spot, he ordered 052 to get out of his head and find someone else.
The next second, xxx was shocked until the veins stood out on the back of his hand.
“If you don’t actively complete your missions, you’ll get shocked,” 052 said gleefully. “That one was just the beginner setting, dear.”
**
Playing a role and sweet-talking someone? xxx didn’t think it would be difficult.
But soon, he realized it was anything but easy.
The redemption missions sent by the System were straight out of a novel, each more ridiculous and over-the-top than the last, with painfully awkward dialogue!
Worse, his target had an utterly unconventional way of thinking and was always saying shocking things. But then again, the young master was incredibly beautiful.
Reading Guide:
1. The two-character name is the bottom, and the three-character name is the top. I’m terrible at names and haven’t decided yet.
2. A laid-back, sharp-tongued, exceptionally beautiful bottom who marches to the beat of his own drum. There should be quite a few scenes of him cross-dressing. The bottom loves money most, and the top just happens to be the richest.
3. I want to try writing a silly comedy.
Theme: If you can’t solve the problem, then you can only deal with the person who caused it.
