Wen Tingyan transmigrated into a book, becoming the inconsequential Beta stepmother of the male lead in an interstellar ABO novel!
The stepmother is a substitute his general father found after the male lead's mother died. The male lead despises him. After the male lead seizes power from his father, the stepmother meets a tragic end too.
Wen Tingyan looks at the male lead in front of him, who's as scruffy as a little stray dog, and thinks: That's it?
Still, to secure a better ending for himself, he does his best to play the role of stepmother:
The male lead gets into a fight at military school and needs a parent called in? He goes.
The male lead, a rising star at military school, gets dragged online and needs help from Wen Tingyan, who's in charge of admissions? He goes.
The male lead needs a dance partner for an interschool ball? He goes.
The male lead presents as a top-tier Alpha and loses control of his pheromones, needing to be calmed down? He steps in.
Wait, no. Aren't those last two things not a stepmother's job?
All in all, Wen Tingyan gets along wonderfully with his stepson, and the male lead grows steadily stronger, just as the original story describes, finally showing what he's capable of.
Wen Tingyan figures he can look forward to a comfortable retirement, but why is his stepson's gaze on him starting to feel strange?
The top's perspective:
Yin Yanchuan grew up on a remote planet. His deadbeat father blamed him for his mother's death, ignoring him and even beating him from childhood. He was raised in the harshest conditions.
Yet after becoming powerful, that father of his, who had been so obsessed with his mother it was like madness, married a Beta with no connections!
Disgusting! They're both disgusting!
But the instant Yin Yanchuan laid eyes on Wen Nian, he completely forgot how much he despised his new stepmother.
He was so beautiful, too beautiful to be a Beta. He looked more like an Omega who'd been pampered at home.
Yin Yanchuan admitted that the moment he saw his stepmother, all kinds of wicked thoughts sprang into his mind:
He's only five years older than me. How can he be my stepmother? How can anyone have a stepmother so young?
His deadbeat father is always at the front lines. Can he really look after such a beautiful wife?
Yin Yanchuan feels no shame whatsoever about his thoughts. He's a wild dog that crawled out of a filthy gutter. All a wild dog wants is to defile that pure white rose!
Extra scene:
“Who do you think is better, me or my dad?” The person in his arms is soft as water, but Yin Yanchuan is perfectly clearheaded and insists on getting an answer.
“I've never tried it with your dad. Do you really have to ask me that right now?”
“So I'm better, right, Stepmother?” Yin Yanchuan murmurs in his ear.
Wen Tingyan feels like strangling the little brat. How can he call him Stepmother at a time like this?
