All Chapters of Beating the System: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

[Haha, the male lead’s family is really putting on a show. They’re pretending the supporting guy is the heir of a wealthy family just to make him give up on himself, all so their real heir can take his place!][Seriously, though, the supporting guy’s life is miserable. He grew up poor, hungry, and always getting beaten. After all that, he finally made it into a top high school. His grades were good enough for a guaranteed recommendation to Harvard or Yale, which could completely change his life. And now he’s getting played by these scammers.][Serves him right! Who told him to always rank first in the grade? Because of him, our handsome and proud male lead could only be second place every year. His family is just looking out for him!][Exactly! He’s just a cannon-fodder supporting character. How dare he steal the spotlight from our male lead? If he’s getting revenge now, that’s just karma!]The comments streamed past in dense waves.I lowered my head and looked at the paternity te

It was also because of the heir’s intense pride that I was given this chance to step into a wealthy family by mistake.I’m not like them.A gutter rat like me would never let any opportunity slip away.Dragging my suitcase behind me as I walked into the room, I closed the door and lay down on the bed, enjoying the rare moment of quiet.The comments popped up again, wildly mocking my relaxed expression.[What an idiot! No wonder he’s just cannon-fodder. He actually believed their nonsense so easily!][Do you think he really believes he’s become an heir now? Maybe he’ll just turn in a blank SAT paper.][That would be perfect. Then the male lead can show up with acceptance letters from Harvard and Yale and throw him out of the house. Just imagining that scene is hilarious. It’s like beating a drowned dog!]I stared at the floating comments without expression.They all thought I was stupid. However, I was sincerely grateful to Blaine’s family for the “rich man’s dream” they had

Maddie’s expression changed, and she spoke with impatience.“I did all this for you. If it weren’t for me, how would you have gotten first place?”“But did I ask you to sleep with him?!” Blaine roared, his eyes red.Maddie fell silent. Then she sighed softly.“Stop making a scene, okay? There’s only one week left. This farce will be over soon.”I didn’t feel any heartbreak. After all, Maddie and I were just using each other.Pretending to be a bad student in exchange for one hundred days of intimacy with the school beauty was honestly a great deal.The mock exams arrived as scheduled.On both the first and second practice tests, I performed “steadily”, scoring somewhere in the 800-900 range.Forget Harvard or Yale; even getting into a decent college would be impossible with those scores.On the day of the SATs, the three of us were assigned to different exam rooms.Before entering, Maddie comforted me. “It’s okay. Even if you don’t do well, you still have me.”I smiled and

Blaine completely lost control and started a livestream.During the stream, he displayed my exam results from the past hundred days. He especially showed my two mock exams, where I hadn’t even reached 1000 points and ranked near the bottom of the grade.Holding up his ID card, Blaine reported me with righteous indignation.“Levi cheated! With mock exam scores like that, how could he suddenly become the state’s top scorer so easily?”The online discussion grew louder and louder.Netizens started tagging me, demanding that I prove myself.I simply chuckled and opened my private TikTok account.The account displayed ninety-nine private study vlogs I had posted.Every time, I studied until the early hours of the morning.Page after page of dense notes. I even memorized vocabulary while showering or using the bathroom…Smiling, I responded to Blaine.“I should thank you for that. You let me play the heir for a hundred days, and I was able to enjoy such a great study environment.

I spoke coldly, “Blaine, did you hear that? This is the woman you called loyal to you.”Maddie froze in place, completely stunned. She didn’t understand why I suddenly mentioned Blaine.Then a guy suddenly went berserk, charging out from behind a tree and slapping Maddie across the face.“Maddie! You actually fell for this jerk?“Let me tell you now that he knew all along. He knew you were approaching him with a purpose. Him being nice to you, sleeping with you, getting close to you—it was all just to spite me!“You’re just a wh*re to him, playing when he’s happy. Now that he doesn’t want you, you still try to betray our family? The Zimmermans and the Zieglers have worked together for years. You really think doing this benefits your family?”Blaine turned toward me, every word dripping with hatred.“Levi, you’re nothing but a sewer rat, a lowlife. Even if you became the state’s top scorer and got into Harvard, so what? My family has money. I have plenty of ways to ruin you!”He
