Since When Do You Have This Side?

Qiu Baiyu transmigrated into a cliché romance novel and acquired a system. The male lead is a CEO, and the female lead is his long-lost idealized beloved about to return from abroad. As for her? She’s the CEO’s wife, also known as “the idealized beloved’s replacement.” The CEO also has a six-year-old daughter—fathered with someone else. In the original plot, the neglected little girl, having lost her mother and receiving no care from her father, grows resentful and mischievous, becoming increasingly disliked. Eventually, her dislike for her new idealized beloved stepmother gets her sent away by her father, leading her to grow up as a villainess who commits all sorts of misdeeds and meets a tragic end. Qiu Baiyu’s task is to play the wicked stepmother, guiding the girl toward corruption and raising her “darkening value” to set the stage for her future villainy. But when Qiu Baiyu sees this silent, cautious child, she sees her younger self. Corrupt her? Sorry, not happening. Defiantly, she starts steering the child toward kindness instead. As for the CEO and his idealized beloved’s melodramatic love story… she couldn’t care less. She thought she could stay out of their drama and focus on raising her daughter right—until she accidentally uncovers the female lead’s secret. She sees the elegant, delicate idealized beloved trading her white dress for a fiery red one, sitting in a bar with a cigarette between her slender fingers. Smoke obscures her face, leaving only her stunning eyes and red lips vividly clear—painting a picture of breathtaking allure. “Ever tasted a woman before? Want to try?” Dressed in red like flame, the woman leans close with a coy smile, whispering words that send hearts racing. “Try me.” Qiu Baiyu: “…?” Wait, since when did you have this side to you??? Later, she ends up with both a wife and a daughter—rewriting the script together. #DarkeningValueResetPlan! #OffscreenSheSmokesAndDrinksLikeCrazy #CEOYourWifeGotStolenByYourIdealizedBeloved! ○ Genre: Healing/Fluff/System/Sweet Romance ○ AU setting, all fictional｜Logic serves the plot, don’t equate with author’s views｜No pirates welcome
