The Villain's Mother, but She Adopts the Male Lead

Xie Yao lost his mother at six, went abroad at seven, and returned at nineteen to trip up the male lead and seize the female lead by force. At twenty-two, he died saving her, becoming the character readers found hardest to let go of.

"Readers' feelings are powerful. The character they can't bear to lose gets a chance to make up for their regrets."

So Yao Xuhan survived the car accident that was supposed to kill her, and learned the story's plot. To prevent it from unfolding, she adopted the male lead. Surely, if they grew up as brothers who got along, things wouldn't come to a life-or-death confrontation.

Xie Qiaoke: "Why is there someone new at home after my business trip?"

Yao Xuhan: "Let me introduce you. This is your new son, Jiang Yifan."

Xie Yao worries that his mother will love Jiang Yifan more, while Jiang Yifan thinks he has to behave well to be allowed to stay. The two compete at home, then keep it up on a variety show.

Netizens: "What well-behaved kids! Yao Xuhan, could you share your parenting secrets?"

As their popularity soars, an insider breaks the news: It's all an act. Yao Xuhan doesn't care about the children at all, and the family is deeply unhappy.

While fans and haters argue, the production team announces that Yao Xuhan's husband, Xie Qiaoke, will be on the next episode.

Xie Qiaoke: "Thanks, but no thanks. I'm here to clear things up."

After watching the livestream, fans say: "Their old-married-couple vibe is practically spilling off the screen. Who said this family wasn't happy? They're incredibly happy!"
