The Tragic Novel Heroine Has a System Mom

Xu Youyou is a certified mama’s girl.
Her most frequently used phrase is: “My mom said…”

Because of this, many people mock her for being “not weaned yet,” but Xu Youyou couldn’t care less. She goes her own way, determined to be the best mama’s girl ever.

In high school, a domineering school heartthrob pins her against the wall and confesses.

In college, a rich, handsome CEO offers to sponsor Xu Youyou with generous conditions. He’s met with a look of pure disdain.

System 5874 is assigned a mission: change the miserable fate of the tragic novel heroine, Xu Youyou, and help her find happiness.

When it finally wakes up, it finds Xu Youyou living in a beautiful villa, surrounded by countless jewels and gorgeous clothes.

The system is heartbroken:
“My dear… how could you still—”

Xu Youyou says excitedly,
“Mom! You’re finally awake! You were right—the easiest money to make in the world comes from love-brained men!”

System: “……Did I ever say that?”
