A Weak, Possessive Male Lead? I Transmigrated and Became the Wicked Stepmother

[Era + Transmigration + System + Development] [Hot figure and fiery female lead vs. high-ranking official, abstinent, and obsessed male lead] [The female lead is neither true, good, nor beautiful, but refined and selfish]

Transmigrating into a novel-era world, Su Qinghe wakes up to find herself forced by her own mother to marry a man and become a stepmother—or be sent to the countryside. Her new husband is a cold, thirty-year-old high-ranking official who is rarely home, and he already has an eight-year-old adopted son known for causing trouble with neighbors and bullying classmates.

To make things worse, Su Qinghe isn’t the pure, selfless heroine type—she’s sharp, self-interested, and fiercely pragmatic. With a “system” by her side and a fiery, alluring personality, she has no intention of suffering quietly.

But as she tries to survive this forced marriage, the aloof, restrained husband begins to show an obsessive, almost desperate desire for her attention… while the unruly adopted son slowly starts to change under her influence.

In a household full of chaos, hidden desires, and unexpected bonds, Su Qinghe realizes that being a “bad stepmother” might just be the key to taking control of her new life.
