Courtyard Chronicles: No More Mr. Nice Guy

Waking up as Sha Zhu in a classic courtyard drama should be a dream come true—except everyone expects him to be their meal ticket and retirement plan! Armed with knowledge of the original timeline and a fierce determination to rewrite his fate, our protagonist refuses to play the fool anymore. No more free lunches, no more being taken advantage of, and definitely no more supporting ungrateful neighbors in their old age. It's time to flip the script and live life on his own terms in 1960s Beijing.
