The Stand-in Butler in a C-drama Chaebol Novel

Qiao Wu grew up under the strict tutelage of the top-tier Lu Corporation, receiving an elite education. After coming of age, she took over her father's position to assist the Lu Corporation's patriarch. With luxury cars, mansions, and a massive annual salary, her future seemed limitless.

However, just one week into her new job, she suddenly awakened to a startling realization: she was merely a background character, a stand-in butler in a melodramatic chaebol novel, and her employers were all antagonists.

The Second Young Master's affair with a minor celebrity that threatened the female lead's reputation? She was sent to handle it with money. The Third Young Master's attempt to forcibly take the female lead? She was the one to close the doors. When the Little Miss provoked the male lead's family? She was sent to clean up the mess... Most importantly, she did all of this to climb into the bed of the patriarch, the Eldest Young Master Lu Jinzhi, and become the mistress of the house.

In the end, the Lu Corporation was destroyed by the protagonists' revenge, leaving Qiao Wu not even a whole corpse to be buried.

And now, she has just finished making her suggestive hint to Lu Jinzhi about wanting to climb his bed.

Qiao Wu: ?

She is a top scholar in every field she touches. Is this an insult to whom?

Facing the Lu family's suspicious and utterly hopeless bunch of crazy dogs, she issues a final ultimatum: "Either you start making something of yourselves, or I will find a new employer."

The spoiled, playboy young masters of the Lu family sit up in their deathbeds in shock.

Qiao Wu is the daughter of the former head butler, so Lu Jinzhi has always held back from crossing certain lines with her. But when he received her hint to climb into his bed while he was abroad, he knew he couldn't keep her around anymore.

Before he could fire her, however, he received another message from Qiao Wu: It was a mistake, this is the one meant for you.

Attachments: "The Guide to Avoiding Traps in Chaebol Melodramas," "How Traditional Tyrants Become Obsolete"—Build a healthy Chaebol, Enjoy a Life of Eternal Wealth.

Lu Jinzhi: ?

When he returned to the country, he found a watermelon knife stuck in a table on the first floor, and on the wall hung the massive Lu Family Rules: Morning exercises, notes from the legal channel, alcohol tests, and curfew.

Meanwhile, his brothers, previously at odds with each other, were all behaving with integrity and righteousness, spending their days poring over the "Guide to Avoiding Traps in Chaebol Melodramas."

"What type of rich guy does she dislike? I'll change, alright?"

"Anyway, it's not Lu Jinzhi, she hates traditional tyrants the most."

"Lu Jinzhi, stop running home all the time. Can't you put in some effort? Qiao Wu only works for top-tier Chaebols, and there are plenty of people out there trying to hire her!"

Lu Jinzhi: ...

I just want to know who she was trying to send that message to!

Previously, he had to watch out for rivals coveting his fortune. Now, he also has to guard against others coveting his butler.

Upcoming: "The Villain Kindergarten"

Synopsis:

Momo is three years old this year and is a little mute.

She is a villain in a book. She doesn't know what a villain is, only that no one plays with her, no one likes her, and no one wants her. When she was abandoned in the snow, she couldn't even cry out.

Just as she thought she was going to die, she was brought to a strange place. It was bright, big, and warm, with endless small cakes and sweet milk.

There were also many children like her, who were unwanted.

She heard the adults say this was the Villain Kindergarten, specifically for redeeming the suffering little villains from various small worlds.

Momo didn't understand, but she thought the other children were very nice.

The older brother with devil horns liked to take her flying;

The older brother in the long dress would tell her bedtime stories full of classical wisdom;

The older sister, who was like a little firecracker, always had all sorts of explosive toys in her backpack.

She would also follow her older brothers and sisters to their worlds to scavenge for junk, catch monsters, and ride spaceships.

Now she thinks it's pretty good to be a villain.
