I put all the warning tags to give myself creative freedom, but the story isn't filled with excessive gore or swearing.This is my first time writing other than for school projects. The gender-bender tag is only for the beginning because I wanted to try writing from a female's perspective and needed an excuse for why my MC reads a little tomboyish. The gender-bender fades into the background over the first few chapters; please don't let the tag keep you from trying out my story.Synopsis:Second chances are rarely earned and even rarer given. Follow a new life in a new world where anything is possible. Our MC wakes up, stuck as a baby, needing to decide how she will live her new life. Let's see what future she can forge when hard work rewards her with status points and skill levels.Author's Note: I'm currently slowly going back and rewriting my earlier chapters, so if you're starting to read this for the first time, try not to be alarmed if the quality suddenly goes down after reading a few chapters. I started writing this story almost three years ago, and I think I've improved as a writer since then. I appreciate your understanding; enjoy.

Lin Wan has passed through the book, and she has become the stepmother of the male protagonist at a young age. The cheap husband is a serious business boss, indifferent and decisive. The three stepsons have very different personalities, and one is more difficult to deal with than the other.

Later, Lin Wan was forced to participate in a parent-child variety show with her stepsons. Five groups of families, one group is more harmonious than one group, of course…except for Lin Wan.

After the variety show was broadcast, Lin Wan became the control group. Other families ordered their parents to cook. They were full of color, fragrance, and filial piety. Lin Wan and his three stepsons ignored each other, compressed biscuits and ham sausages, and the atmosphere was eerily silent.

In other family nights, the whole family counts the stars and watches the moon together. Isn’t it sweet? Lin Wan and his three stepsons tell each other horror stories viciously, scaring the audience in front of the screen!

Netizens watched while scolding, and later they found that the atmosphere of Lin Wan’s control group had changed!
