I Reincarnated as a Rich Family’s Stepmom, but Took My Mecha to Get a Divorce

Just after designing a new-concept 3S mech, top-tier mech designer Qiao Chenxi died from overwork in her lab.

When she awoke, she had transmigrated into an interstellar tycoon's family.

Not only had she become the second wife of the Shi family's patriarch, she also had an eight-year-old stepson.

Her husband was nowhere to be seen on their wedding night, and her stepson was selectively mute.

Qiao Chenxi, who had always lived freely and done as she pleased, went to find her husband.

Qiao Chenxi: Hello, I want a divo...

Shi Jingwei: We have a three-year agreement. If you break it, you'll owe three hundred million.

Shi Jingwei: What was that about?

Qiao Chenxi changed her tune: I want to be closer to you!

She had no choice but to embrace her stepmother role, start building mechs from scratch, and raise a child along the way. Her stepson finally spoke up and said he wanted to learn the craft from her.

1. One day, Shi Jingwei returned from a business trip with a pile of high-tech toys from Blue Star.

His eight-year-old son: When you're my age, you'll understand how childish these are.

Then he hugged the mechanical arm Qiao Chenxi had made from a discarded terminal and played with it to his heart's content.

2. Shi Jingwei anonymously offered a huge reward on a mech forum for someone who could repair a mech of the xxx model.

Someone immediately replied: You pay, I fix. Six-month warranty, sweetie!

Shi Jingwei promptly transferred the money.

System notification: You have transferred fifty million Alliance coins to your wife's supplementary card.

Shi Jingwei: ?

3. Once she'd saved enough for the penalty, Qiao Chenxi immediately booked a divorce appointment.

The first time, Shi Jingwei said he was busy with work.

The second time, he said he had to go on a business trip.

The third time, he said a fortune-teller had told him that day was unlucky for getting divorced.

That day, the residents of Central Star all saw a silver mech charge into the Interstellar Shipping Building and drag Mr. Shi out along with his hover pod.

"Divorce!!" Qiao Chenxi roared.

Mr. Shi stood there in his crisp suit, utterly unruffled. "Five hundred million, unlimited materials. How about not getting divorced?"

Qiao Chenxi gave a cold snort. Two seconds later, she was dazzled by the money.

Rumor had it that the head of the interstellar Shi family was cold-blooded and aloof, an untouchable beauty.

At the victory banquet after the Alliance's triumph, he was pushed onto the stage to give a speech.

In a hall full of distinguished guests, love poured from his eyes. Like a midsummer downpour, it drenched Qiao Chenxi's heart, hot and searing.

When the footage got out, the netizens on the Star Network went wild shipping them.

A ruthless, no-nonsense "scientific" stepmom raising a child × a cold and aloof CEO in public, but a lovesick, loyal puppy in private

Note: In this future world, the stepson was born through asexual reproduction. He is related by blood to the male lead, but has no biological mother.

Theme: Everyone has a brilliant life of their own to live
