I Became the Male Lead’s Stepmother After Transmigrating

Summary of the I Became the Male Lead’s Stepmother After Transmigrating

So, you're *I Became the Male Lead’s Stepmother After Transmigrating*, right? It happened to me – I popped into this story world and landed as the male lead's stepmother. Got it.

Now, seventeen years old, fresh out of adolescence… my stepson barely even registers me most days. He's like a wall, totally ignoring his new stepmom. Meanwhile, his dad is thirty-nine, still gorgeous with that mature, elegant vibe going on, but he’s famously unreadable – nobody knows what *he’s* thinking!

My corner: Xiang Xiaoyuan! The cardinal rule was to value my life and stay far away from the male lead… so I focused on making cash. My business is booming; you'd be surprised how much opportunity exists when you're clever enough.

But just as things were looking up – rich life incoming? – something weird happens with my husband, Lu Wanggui. He's a cold fish even after getting remarried, all because his ex-wife left him and he wanted to give the kid some 'peace' away from old stories.

Unexpectedly though, one day he pops up blocking me, kinda growling about how I suggested older guys change their ways? Like, is he mad at *me* for thinking that?

I'm ready to explain: "Wait! Let me talk!" But before I can get a word out, his stepson steps in and surprises us both. He gives Lu Wanggui this side-eye look, clearly annoyed by the tone ("Pursing lips"), defends my position with an awkward cough ("Ahem")...

Lu just stares, utterly confused? "What *is* going on?" We barely have a relationship; it was always strained.

And his son says... yeah, apparently not so bad.
