Chapter 001: Damn, What Did the Rich Generation Ever Do to You?:
(The East Sea City, China)
In an incredibly luxurious villa suite, Han Yi stared at his reflection in the mirror, feeling utterly dejected.
He sighed in frustration, "Damn it, God, why are you playing me like this?"
In the mirror, he saw a tall, handsome young man with a fashionable sense of style, the perfect image of a rich second-generation heir. However, no one knew that he was a transmigrator.
In his previous life, he was just a struggling writer, munching on steamed buns and instant noodles in a rented apartment. He wrote the same old urban face-slapping novels, earning a meager income to survive.
When he woke up, he found himself in the world of his own novel, becoming a villainous rich heir.
Overnight, Han Yi became wealthy, powerful, and surrounded by women.
His grandfather was a retired high-ranking central government official, his father was the chairman of the Han Group, his uncle was a major general in the army, his other uncle was a high-ranking provincial official, and his aunt was the chairman of a top-tier medical institution. His only sister was a superstar!
As the only male heir of the Han family's third generation, Han Yi held a special status at home.
All the elders adored him, allowing him to get whatever he wanted in East Sea City, making him the top young master in the area, someone no one dared to offend.
This heaven-defying change was a huge blessing for Han Yi, enough to make him wake up laughing from his dreams.
However, he quickly realized that this world wasn't so simple.
There were many protagonists, and he was just a side character!
The day before yesterday, Han Yi was having a blast at a bar when he accidentally flirted with a girl.
A soldier stepped in and beat him up, even taking down all his bodyguards.
Yesterday, Han Yi was about to take a girl to a hotel when a random guy glanced at him and claimed he knew acupuncture, saying that Han Yi didn't have long to live.
Today, Han Yi got into a wealth competition with another random guy, who ended up grinding him into the ground. This guy even claimed to have a 'spendthrift system' and had to spend billions or he'd feel uncomfortable!
As a side character, Han Yi was under immense pressure.
No matter where he went, he was humiliated by various protagonists from different novels, to the point that he didn't even dare to go to KTV, fearing he'd run into the king of show-offs, Chen Beixuan. He didn't even dare to go near the zoo, afraid of encountering an escaped giant panda.
His life was so suffocating that Han Yi felt like coughing up blood.
"Damn it, what did the rich generation ever do to you? All I want is to live leisurely and pick up girls, why is that so hard?" Han Yi groaned in frustration.
[Ding!]
Just then, a crisp sound rang out.
[Detected significant emotional fluctuation in the host, system activation conditions met, system activating, please wait!]
[System activated successfully, system binding in progress, please wait!]
A sweet female voice echoed in his mind.
Han Yi was stunned for three seconds, then his eyes widened in delight.
"Damn, a system! Did I hear that right?" Han Yi exclaimed, "Do I have a system too? Could it be that I'm also a protagonist?"
[No, you are the ultimate villainous side character!]
The sweet female voice answered.
[Congratulations for binding the God-Level Villain Counterattack System, host. You are now the sole owner of this system. I am your system intelligence. Would you like to check your attributes panel?]
"A villain? That’s not bad! Having a system is good enough!" Han Yi urged excitedly, "Hurry, hurry, check it out!"
[Yes!]
The system responded, and an attribute panel appeared in Han Yi’s mind.
...
God-Level Villain Counterattack System
Host: Han Yi
Age: 18
Identity: Rich second-generation heir
Attributes: Strength 8, Speed 7, Reflex 5, Intelligence 9
Villain Points: 100
Skills Acquired: None
System-Bound Skills: Skill Copy, Strength Amplification
Skill Copy: Consume villain points to temporarily copy any skill from the opponent, lasts only ten minutes.
Strength Amplification: Consume villain points to amplify your abilities and skills tenfold or hundredfold. The stronger the skill, the more villain points consumed.
System Description: This system is designed to create the ultimate villain. When the host encounters various protagonists, if the host successfully counters and humiliates them, villain points can be earned, and even the opponent's system skills and luck can be plundered.
...
The series of information left Han Yi dumbfounded.
After regaining his senses, he burst into excited laughter. "Damn, am I dreaming? This is awesome!"
As a struggling writer, Han Yi knew the value of this system. It was clearly an existence capable of turning the tables on countless protagonists!
The two system-bound skills were completely overpowered. One could copy the protagonist's skills, while the other could amplify them tenfold or hundredfold. This wasn’t just a copy, it was total domination!
With this system, even a side character could crush the protagonists!
Any 'spendthrift system,' 'divine doctor system,' or 'soldier king system' would be smashed with a single slap.
Also, Han Yi could plunder their systems, their luck, their skills, and even their girls. Han Yi would be the most awesome existence.
With the system in hand, the world was his!
Han Yi was overjoyed, eager to seek revenge on those who had humiliated him before. If they dared to show off again, Han Yi would beat the crap out of them.
Just then, a bodyguard in a black suit hurried into the room, bowed slightly, and said, "Young Master Han, a strange man has arrived outside. He claims to be a disciple of the Maoshan Sect and says he has an engagement contract with our eldest miss. He wants to see the old master. Should we let him in?"
"Hmm?" Han Yi was puzzled.
A disciple of the Maoshan Sect? Marriage contract?
Damn! This was clearly another show-off protagonist, playing a clichéd old plot, trying to come to his house and humiliate him!
"You son of a bitch, you dare come to my door? Do you think it's that easy to bully a rich second-generation heir?" Han Yi was furious. "Let's go! Let's see if I don’t beat the crap out of him today!"

Chapter 002: Can You Survive Without Bragging? Does Your Father-in-Law's Family Have This Much Money?:
In front of the Han family mansion stood a young man filled with pride.
This was a man with an ordinary appearance, decent features, someone who would easily blend into a crowd.
He wore simple casual clothes and held nothing in his hands, yet he exuded a faintly ethereal aura.
His name was Zhao Wenjie, a 24-carat pure loser!
By chance, he acquired the Maoshan Inheritance System, which opened up a life of ghost hunting, exorcism, live streaming, and showing off.
Cliché plots were always similar.
Before his grandfather died, he left a last wish saying that Zhao Wenjie had an engagement contract with the eldest daughter of the Han family in East Sea City. Thus, Zhao Wenjie came to visit today.
Of course, the protagonist always makes a grand entrance!
Floating in the air to his left was an invisible spherical camera, a 360-degree automatic live streaming device given by the Maoshan system.
This gadget freed his hands, allowing him to live stream his ghost hunting and exorcism activities in real-time, quickly gaining him a large number of online fans.
The live stream was already on, with hundreds of thousands of excited fans gathered in the live room, eagerly awaiting Zhao Wenjie's broadcast.
[6666]: "Brother Jie is finally live again! Haha, is today's live stream about ghost hunting or exorcism?"
"Damn, this villa is luxurious. Is this place haunted?"
"Isn't this the largest hillside villa in East Sea City? I heard each villa here costs at least several hundred million yuan. The residents must be rich and noble. Is someone here asking Brother Jie to exorcise ghosts?"
The fans in the live room buzzed with speculation. Zhao Wenjie glanced at his phone, a smile flickering in his eyes, and said, "Dear fans, today Brother Jie isn't streaming ghost hunting. I'm here to find my fiancée. See this house? It's my father-in-law's place!"
"Damn, can you survive without bragging? Your father-in-law's family is this rich?"
"Haha, quick, quick, Brother Jie is about to speak. Shove the microphone into his appendix!"
[2333]: this seems to be the Han family in East Sea City. Brother Jie, are you kidding? Your father-in-law is from the Han family?" The fans were seriously skeptical.
"Don't doubt it!" Zhao Wenjie said proudly. "What kind of person am I? What's the Han family? It's questionable whether the eldest daughter of the Han family is even worthy of me!"
[666]: "Brother Jie, you're really exaggerated. Do you know who the eldest daughter of the Han family is? Does your family know how awesome you are?"
"The eldest daughter of the Han family in East Sea City is Han Yushi, the pure and sweet starlet who's super popular in the entertainment industry. She's your fiancée? Nonsense!"
"Hey, is this 110? There's a lunatic showing off here. The situation is out of control. Send someone quickly!" The fans joked, clearly not believing Zhao Wenjie's words.
Zhao Wenjie smiled faintly, not explaining much.
Since the system bonded with him, he had encountered many things others didn't believe or accept, but he always ended up surprising and humiliating them, and he thoroughly enjoyed it.
The more people didn't believe, the more satisfying his triumph would be.
Zhao Wenjie had already thought of dozens of ways to make the Han family respect him deeply.
As the protagonist, he was destined to shine today.
Soon, the Han family arrived together!
The Han family mansion was vast, complete with a swimming pool, garage, and golf course, staffed with numerous bodyguards and servants, all showcasing luxury.
However, most of the important family members were busy, so today only the old master Han Zhengnan, Han Yi, Han Yushi, and Han Yi's father Han Jian were home.
Zhao Wenjie came to visit, but the old master was unwell and didn't appear, so only Han Yi, Han Yushi, and Han Jian, along with some bodyguards, came out.
Han Jian was a middle-aged businessman, slightly plump with a deep expression, dressed in a dark suit, giving off an impression of shrewdness and decisiveness.
Han Yushi was elegant and stunningly beautiful, dressed in a white long dress, with fair skin and delicate features lightly made up, looking like a fairy descended to earth.
No wonder she was the hottest pure and sweet starlet in the entertainment industry.
Her appearance immediately elicited excited cheers from countless viewers. Even Zhao Wenjie couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
In comparison, Han Yi wasn't as eye-catching.
But as soon as Han Yi appeared, he stared intently at Zhao Wenjie. At the same time, a lot of information began to surface in his mind.
[Ding! Detecting the presence of a protagonist, scanning in progress!"
...
Protagonist: Zhao Wenjie
Age: 23
Identity: Streamer, Taoist Master
Attributes: Strength 18, Speed 19, Reflex 25, Intelligence 14
Bound System: Maoshan Heritage System
Cheats: Basic Mastery of Bajiquan, Basic Mastery of Taoist Arts, Basic Mastery of Five Thunder True Technique.
System Evaluation: This is a system inheriting Maoshan Taoist techniques. Protagonist Zhao Wenjie is the sole bonded user. He gains fame and money through live streaming ghost hunting and exorcism. He has basic knowledge of Taoist arts. Currently, Zhao Wenjie's mission is to enter the Han family and win Han Yushi's heart!
Friendly Reminder: Zhao Wenjie has already started live streaming, and about 500,000 viewers are watching. Please stop his showing off.
...
This string of information immediately infuriated Han Yi!
Even he felt unworthy of his superstar sister, who was as perfect as a fairy. Yet, Zhao Wenjie, a loser who acquired a system, aimed to disgrace his sister. Han Yi was burning with rage.
Moreover, according to the typical face-slapping routine in urban novels, this guy was sure to cause a scene at the Han family today, successfully showing off and winning the admiration of the Han family members, and even winning the heart of the beauty.
Of course, Han Yi would be the one getting humiliated!
"Damn you! Coming to my house to show off and seduce my sister? If I don't beat you to a pulp, I'm not a Han!" Han Yi seethed with anger.
At this moment, Han Jian stepped forward and frowned, "Who are you? Why are you spouting nonsense at my house?"
"Good day, Uncle. I am Zhao Wenjie, Miss Yushi's fiancé!" Zhao Wenjie said proudly, causing a stir.
