In her past life, Lin Yue was just another heartbroken office worker—used, discarded, and forgotten. No family. No success. No love. Just pain. But with her final breath, she made two wishes: to own a powerful business empire and to be the one playing the guys, not the one getting played.

The universe answered… in the most unexpected way.

Reborn as a baby girl in a world where women rule and men are delicate, emotional, and give birth, Lin Yue finds herself in a small village surrounded by warmth, love, and the family she never had before. For once, she lets go of ambition and embraces a peaceful childhood.

But when her past life memories return at age ten, everything changes.

Armed with the mind of a grown woman, she pretends to be sweet and innocent while secretly plotting her rise to the top. Her goals haven’t changed—she still wants it all.

At eighteen, her System activates, giving her missions, power boosts, and everything she needs to dominate in a world built for strong women—and to finally play the game her way.

This time, she won’t be the one crying.

This time, she’ll be the one in control.

Playing the game in a world ruled by women with my system

Chapter 6 – Sujin's Little Devils Strike Again!

The people of Sujin Village had learned two things over the past year.

First, if you heard giggles and the sound of scampering feet, it was already too late.

Second, where Lin Yue went, trouble followed like a puppy with sticky hands and a plan.

Today's mischief started with a cabbage. Well, technically, it started with Granny Fu chasing a goose that stole her hairpin—but the gang found the cabbage first.

"Y'all thinking what I'm thinking?" Chun Hei grinned, holding the oversized cabbage like it was a sacred treasure.

"We roll it down the slope and make it look like a runaway alien egg?" Lin Yue guessed.

"No," said Meimei, munching. "We eat it."

"Noooo," Jiajia interrupted dramatically. "We put it in the well and scream that the water's cursed!"

Then Lin Yue clapped. "Yes. That one!"

Operation: Cabbage Curse commenced immediately.

Chun Hei lured some nosy boys away from the well with a fake 'wrestling match' flyer. Meimei stood watch, holding Granny Zhao's squeaky sandals like a weapon. Lin Yue and Jiajia worked fast—dropping the cabbage in, stirring the water a little, and pouring red plum juice down the side.

Then, Lin Yue jumped back and screamed.

Chaos. Pure, ridiculous chaos.

Within ten minutes, half the village was gathered. One woman fainted. Old Uncle Wei claimed it was a sign from the gods. Someone started burning incense.

Lin Yue and her gang watched from behind a bush, shaking with laughter.

"This is wrong," Meimei whispered. "So wrong."

"I regret nothing," Lin Yue replied, biting her sleeve to keep from squealing.

But of course, like all good crimes, they were eventually caught.

The same one from earlier, now suspiciously calm, casually walked over to their hiding spot—and honked.

Three minutes later, Mama Lin arrived.

And when Mama Lin arrived... things got serious.

Lin Yue popped out of the bush slowly. "Hi, Mama."

"What's this about cursed water? And is that plum juice?!"

Lin Yue scratched her cheek, thinking hard. "Um... science experiment?"

Mama Lin pinched the bridge of her nose. "You are grounded for three days."

Chun Hei stepped out. "We all did it! Punish us equally!"

"Me too," said Meimei, raising her hand.

Mama Lin looked at all of them, then sighed and muttered, "A gang of future CEOs, I swear..."

Despite the scolding, the gang didn't regret a thing. That night, after sneaking into Lin Yue's room, they laid on her bed whispering about the next idea:

"Let's dye all the chickens pink."

"No, let's pretend we're fortune tellers and make up love stories for people!"

"What about planting weird messages in the adults' shoes?!"

Lin Yue laughed, her gem-blue eyes twinkling. This—this was what being a kid felt like.
