Description
Qiao Wu was raised in the prestigious, top-tier Lu family, receiving elite, all-rounder education. When she grew up, she took over her father’s position to assist the Lu family heir. Luxury cars, mansions, and a sky-high annual salary—she was supposed to have a boundless future. But one week into her new role, she suddenly awakened—she was merely a background character in a melodramatic rich-family novel, playing the role of the Lu family’s steward, and her employers were all villains. Second Young Master kept a starlet as a mistress and caused trouble for the female lead—she was the one who had to pay them off. Third Young Master tried to forcefully take the female lead—she was the one who had to shut the door. When the little miss offended the male lead’s family—she was the one who had to clean up the mess… And the worst part? She did all of this just to climb into the bed of the powerful heir, Lu Jinzhi, and become the lady of the house. In the end, the Lu family was destroyed in a revenge arc by the protagonists. Qiao Wu didn’t even leave behind a whole corpse. And now—she had just finished subtly implying to Lu Jinzhi that she wanted to sleep with him. Qiao Wu: ??? She could excel in any of the 360 professions. What kind of insult was this supposed to be? Faced with these paranoid, useless rich brats who couldn’t be helped, she gave them one final ultimatum: “Either you get your act together, or I’m finding a new employer.” The pampered and spoiled Lu family young masters sat up in shock, like dying men who’d been jolted back to life. — Qiao Wu was the daughter of the former old steward, which was why Lu Jinzhi had always kept a bottom line when it came to her. But when he received her “sleeping together” hint all the way from abroad, he knew—it was time to fire her. Before he could send the dismissal, he received another message from Qiao Wu: “Sent to the wrong person. This is what I meant to send you.” Attachment: A Guide to Avoiding Melodramatic Rich-Family Pitfalls How Traditional Overbearing CEOs Got Eliminated — Build a healthy rich family, enjoy wealth for life. Lu Jinzhi: ??? When he returned to China, he found a watermelon knife stabbed into the first floor table, and a giant sign hanging on the wall listing the Lu family’s new house rules: Morning exercise at dawn Written exams on legal channel case studies Alcohol breath tests Strict curfew His previously scheming and distant brothers were now all upright and disciplined, clutching their copies of “A Guide to Avoiding Melodramatic Rich-Family Pitfalls” and studying them word by word. “What kind of rich guy does she hate most? I’ll change, okay?” “Whoever it is, it’s not Lu Jinzhi. She hates traditional overbearing CEOs.” “Lu Jinzhi, stop running home all the time. Could you show some effort? Xiao Wu only works for top-tier wealthy families, and everyone outside is trying to poach her!” Lu Jinzhi: … I just want to know—who the hell was that message really meant for?! He used to worry about rivals eyeing his family fortune. Now, he had to worry about others eyeing his steward.

My Thoughts on I Am the Side Character Steward in a Dog-Blood Drama
This novel, "I Am the Side Character Steward in a Dog-Blood Drama," certainly took me for a ride. With its blend of drama, romance, and slice-of-life elements, it promised a unique experience, and it mostly delivered, though not without a few bumps along the way.
First Impressions
The premise itself is intriguing: a capable female lead who finds herself forced into the role of a steward, essentially babysitting a group of ridiculously privileged and emotionally stunted heirs. The initial chapters were quite captivating. Watching her navigate the over-the-top drama and put these spoiled characters in their place was genuinely entertaining. I was hooked by the idea of a strong female lead taking charge and injecting some much-needed sense into these chaotic lives.
What Works Well
The story shines in its early stages, particularly when our FL is actively reshaping the personalities of the Lu siblings. The author does a good job portraying the complex family dynamics and the individual flaws of each character. I particularly appreciated how the female lead wasn't afraid to challenge their toxic behaviors and push them towards self-improvement. The novel also explores the concept of family, albeit a dysfunctional one, and the importance of guidance and support.
Areas of Concern
However, the story does lose some of its initial spark as it progresses. Once the main characters start to fall into line, the plot begins to feel less dynamic. The female lead’s overwhelming competence starts to feel a bit too convenient, and the narrative loses some of its tension. While the romance aspect is present, it felt somewhat understated. Also, the plot started to lose steam as it went on.
Final Verdict
"I Am the Side Character Steward in a Dog-Blood Drama" is an enjoyable read, especially if you're looking for a story with a strong female lead and plenty of family drama. While the latter half might not be as gripping as the beginning, the overall experience is still worthwhile. It's a lighthearted and entertaining novel that I'd recommend for a casual read.
