As an elite sporting a flawless track record, she dives into countless different worlds and takes over the bodies of wronged female characters (all also named Su Lüxia) whose mistreatment and resentment have reached levels high enough to qualify for the System's services, taking revenge on their enemies and often improving the lives of the women she acts on behalf of.Each story arc features a different world setting with a new body and mission to fulfill. Accompanied by her loyal System partner in the form of a bamboo rat, Su Lüxia tackles each mission with experienced aplomb, exacting revenge on cheaters and other scumbags and relishing their just desserts.The first twenty-five chapters are available to read in English for free here.A short prequel titled Cheating Men Must Die: The Prime Minister is published here and tells the story of Su Lüxia's first mission, before she gained the experience and System tools utilised in the main story.The side story Cheating Men Must Die: The Evil Consort is Busy is published here and tells the story of a mission against the host of the Emperor System, as well as an agent of a Male Lead System.Note: For clarity's sake, the agent will be referred to by her full name, while the characters she takes over will be referred to by their titles or as simply 'Lüxia'. | |

Kill the God | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_10add6ee | comment |
Kill the God: In the 20th arc, a female college student transmigrates into the Goddess Artemis and builds herself a harem. Problem is, the first hero she hooks up with already has a pregnant wife. The novel's text just glosses over it and has her die of a convenient illness, but the created story world resolves the Plot Hole via Murder the Hypotenuse, with illness just being the excuse told to the public. Thus, Su Lüxia is assigned to avenge the murdered queen by killing a goddess in a story based on Greek Mythology. She uses Geometric Magic from another realm to kill Artemis with her own divine power. | |

Hero Antagonist: The 12th arc has Fang Xu, who is trying to find evidence to arrest the criminal main lead and wants to help the female lead. In the original novel, this ended badly for him, but Su Lüxia's meddling ensures he's far more successful. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Near the beginning of the seventh arc, He Xuyan disfigures Lüxia by splashing acid in her face just because she didn't want to be with him, thereby destroying her whole family, then has the gall to insult her after her death, taunting that she can do nothing to him. Enter Su Lüxia as a powerful Vengeful Ghost who has Xuyan at her mercy. He pathetically begs for his life, but is ignored as Su Lüxia strangles him, drops him from a great height onto sharpened rocks, disfigures his face, breaks his neck (leaving him still barely alive at this point), then finally shoots him through the chest with a light beam which causes his body and soul to disintegrate to nothing. | |

Genre Savvy | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Thanks to the System, Su Lüxia is given insight into the worlds she enters and uses this to plan out her strategies. In the first arc, Su Lüxia teaches her adopted son, Yun Ling, how to recognize and avoid devious women, and he takes her lessons to heart in the eighth arc by being able to instantly see through Mingyue's act. The thirteenth arc takes place in a story world that was artificially created before the author finished writing the story. As such, Su Lüxia is able to take advantage of various tropes and narrative devices to use them against the antagonist author, who can only manipulate the story world within the rules of the Theory of Narrative Causality. | |

Genre Shift | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: The thirteenth arc takes place inside a romance novel. But when the author becomes too obsessed with killing off Su Lüxia using the demon system, the constant and implausible freak accidents she tries to kill her off with forcibly changes the genre to horror. The story of the 15th arc is a weird story about a pushover of a woman, who proves how virtuous she is by enduring beatings, theft, the murder of her daughter, and rape from her in-laws, all to receive the happy prize of her mother-in-law's approval. And then, the Demon System takes over the story verse, shifting it to horror. | |

Wrong Context Magic | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_1b9df446 | comment |
Wrong Context Magic: The twelfth arc takes place in a world where magic barely exists. In fact, aside from some minor, subtle forms of magic, like divination, magic is completely unheard of, which makes it all the more unbelievable when Su Lüxia explains that the Villain Protagonist somehow got her hands on a set of talismans that allow for things like Grand Theft Me or Animate Dead. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: In the third arc, Su Lüxia mentions the last wish of her host body is to revive the vampire clan. She proposes to "save the world by fucking", at which point her System partner reminds her that they're in a decent comic and they can't show smut. Su Lüxia realizes he has a point and goes for the second option. The story in the 14th arc also has the readers hate reach levels high enough to get Lüxia the mission. | |

Deal with the Devil: When Qing Ling figures out that she is only The Chosen One because she is a novel character, she takes it poorly, wondering What Measure Is a Non-Human?. She makes a deal with the Demon System to transcend the story world, and while she swears not to commit evil, there is no record of a demon system host succeeding at that for long. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy: As a transmigrator, Bai Ting is convinced that she can replace Lüxia as the female lead and as such is entitled to anything and anyone she wants, including Lüxia's husband. It bites her back when her arrogant behaviour causes her to be unpopular with both her colleagues and clients, and while the original genre of her new world is a domestic period drama, her presence and actions change it into a revenge fantasy with her as the villain. | |

Hidden Heart of Gold | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_20c99f6e | comment |
Hidden Heart of Gold: The male lead of the thirteenth arc initially seems to be one of the typical Villain Protagonists, and his character profile is that of a psychotic CEO that would murder a person's entire family for a slight. Su Lüxia notices that he is weirdly reluctant to be around the female protagonist he is supposed to be in love with and realizes that due to the novel world being incomplete, he has developed a personality independent of the story outline. In truth, he is actually very concerned for the secondary female lead and wants nothing to do with the primary female lead, but knows he risks getting killed off by the author if he acts out of character. | |

The massive power gap and her superior's attitude make it extremely obvious that her superior wanted to have Su Lüxia killed by assigning her an Impossible Task. | |

In the fifth arc, Lüxia commits suicide after being bullied by Alpha Bitch Xiaozhen and especially after being spurned by Mingzhe, who tells her to get on with it. Su Lüxia takes over and makes him fall in love with her, while getting revenge on Xiaozhen by showing she can’t be bullied anymore. Su Lüxia then proves that Xiaozhen was Switched at Birth with Zhen'en and is not part of a rich family, but rather a poor one, robbing her of her social status. This combined with Mingzhe's rejection drive Xiaozhen over the edge and she attempts to kill Su Lüxia in public, only to get stopped by Mingzhe and arrested for attempted murder. Su Lüxia then decides to leave the world and remain only in Mingzhe's memories and no one else's, causing everyone to think him insane and resulting in him leaving everyone he loved to embark on a pointless journey to find her again. | |

She Cleans Up Nicely: Some of the Lüxias are rather plain, but when Su Lüxia comes in, she’ll undergo a transformation to emphasize her beauty. The fourth arc originally had Su Lüxia as a heavyset housewife, whom she slims down using a combination of exercise and a rare cultivation pill. In the fifth arc, Su Lüxia transforms her shy, mousy host into a high school idol. Ninth arc Lüxia was just a homebody who didn’t have any formalwear, but Su Lüxia fixes the problem by possessing her and quickly fashioning a designer-level outfit from materials and fabric she bought at a thrift store in fifteen minutes. Prince Rui in the twelfth arc was a dark and fat man due to a mysterious poison. After Su Lüxia cures him, Rui came out very bishounen. Not only that, Su Lüxia gasped at seeing that Rui's face is just like her dead lover, Zero. | |

Small Name, Big Ego: Bai Ting thinks she can have anything she wants because she's a beautiful transmigrator with knowledge of the storyline, despite the fact that she's in a period drama where women aren't seen as equal to men and she lacks status or money beyond what her male admirers gift her. While her behaviour doesn't do her any favours at work, she still believes she has the leverage to impose conditions on her employer like an international diva, rather than an unpopular dance hall singer. | |

Plot Armor: In-universe. The challenges of the 17th arc occur because the female lead has a luck stealing item that ensures she can avoid being killed by any means and cannot be removed by external forces, which poses a challenge for Su Lüxia to stop her before she can force Wen Daoxian's soul into Wen Zheng's body and essentially kill the man to be with her lover again. | |

Artifact Title: Downplayed. The main antagonists of the first three arcs were men who cheated/abused the women they were supposed to love. The third arc also featured a minor antagonist in the male's love interest even though she didn't lock horns directly with Su Luxia, which led the way for women to become main antagonists in future arcs, starting with its immediate successor. Despite this, it is repeatedly stated by Luxia that men are naturally scummy, cheating bastards who need to be taught harsh lessons and she readily enacts retribution on any that she finds. | |

| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_2d88e42c | comment |
Gender Bender: During the The Evil Consort is Busy side story, Su Lüxia uses Grand Theft Me on a (presumably damaged) male eunuch to throw her adversaries off. When the Male Lead System host is forced to work with her, she likewise coerces him into stealing a female body. In the 15th arc, the original Lüxia was so disgusted by her mother's nature as a complete pushover, groveling for approval from her daughter's would-be murderers, that she blamed her mother's weakness on their sex and chose to reincarnate as a man. Su Lüxia's organization has separate departments for male and female cannon fodder characters. Every once in a while, one of the departments is understaffed, so an agent will be obligated to use Media Transmigration on an opposite sex body. Su Lüxia negotiates for bonus payment on such occasions, as we see in the 16th arc. | |

Assumed Win: Near the end of the tenth arc, Minamoto Nagamasa and his yakuza group have a meeting with an affiliated group, whose head asks for his women (Su Lüxia and Kawana Nanako) as a goodwill gift. Nanako texts Su Lüxia during the discussion, arrogantly taunting that she has won as Minamoto likes her more and that Su Lüxia will be the one shipped out to be another yakuza group's Sex Slave. However, to Nanako's absolute shock, Minamoto offers her up to the group, as Su Lüxia is not his lover but his indispensable mentor. Nanako gets hysterical to the point where Minamoto orders his men to silence and restrain her, and to add insult to injury, the affection rating she worked so hard to raise immediately drops to zero. | |

Reincarnation Romance | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_3016de81 | comment |
Reincarnation Romance: The subject of the 17th arc. The female lead managed to resolve all misunderstandings with the male lead, only for him to die, so she travels to the future when he is reincarnated. The only problem? His new incarnation already has a wife he loves very much. The determined heroine uses an occult ritual to restore his Past-Life Memories, also causing him to forget his love for his current wife and violently throw her away. But as long as the leads are happy, who cares about what happens to side characters? Rather than awakening a past life as claimed, the true purpose of the ritual is to enact Grand Theft Me on a descendant of the male lead, summoning the dead soul into a new host body while destroying the soul of the original owner. | |

Redemption Rejection | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_32785419 | comment |
Redemption Rejection: In the fourth arc after Bai Ting has been reduced to poverty working under the tyranny of an old lady, Su Lüxia asks if she regrets her past actions and if she would act differently if time could be rewound. Bai Ting angrily rants that she did nothing wrong and that she blames her current situation on Su Lüxia. Su Lüxia then says to her System partner that she would've erased Bai Ting's memories and returned her to her original world if she had been remorseful, but she made her choice and thus consigned herself to her sucky life. | |

I'm Crying, but I Don't Know Why: Inverted at the end of the first arc. While waiting for Liu Ruyan to kill the emperor, Su Lüxia doesn't notice she's crying until her worried System partner points it out, whereupon she immediately deduces that it's because of the emotions of her host character, who loved the emperor deeply. | |

You Should Have Died Instead | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_34b33a09 | comment |
You Should Have Died Instead: Back when Su Lüxia was herself a sacrificial extra, Agent Zero, who had been Brought Down to Normal, performed a Heroic Sacrifice to save her. Those who have Ascended to a Higher Plane of Existence tend not to see natives of story worlds as people at all, so Zero's best friend and Su Lüxia's new superior was outraged he would sacrifice himself for a worthless person. She has attempted to rectify this and avenge Zero's death by killing the woman he sacrificed himself to save. She does this by abusing her authority to send Su Lüxia on Uriah Gambits intended to kill her. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Appears to be Su Lüxia's specialty, as a lot of her plans to bring down her rivals involve counting on them to act exactly as they would. It's helped in no small part by the fact that she usually receives prior knowledge of the stories and characters before engaging with them, but a lot of it is also due to her extensive history of dealing with these sorts as well. Jing Chen displays this ability as well, as he chases Feng Wushuang away from the Clear Skies Sect without killing her or destroying her cultivation, knowing full well she would turn to Bai Lixuan and eventually sleep with him. Thanks to the curse he placed on her beforehand, this severely weakens Bai Lixuan and allows Jing Chen to steal his power and kill him. | |

In the 18th arc, Su Lüxia manages to take some videos as evidence. Some of the videos should have been impossible to take just by hiding the camera. Since the female lead has a Compelling Voice, she isn't completely unaware of the supernatural and concludes that Su Lüxia must have her own power of Invisibility. She isn't completely wrong, it was her invisible System partner who took the videos. | |

Secret Test of Character: In the third arc, Su Lüxia warns Xavier that his sister, Wei Na, is going to sabotage him before his battle with the vampires in exchange for Youji's life. He doesn't believe it at first, but he does catch sight of Wei Na drugging his tea as she prepares it. When she goes to serve it to Xavier in his room, he engages in some small talk about his plans for the battle before fake-sipping the tea to see what she'll do. Xavier notes that Wei Na didn't bother at all during that time to stop him from drinking, then drops the bomb that he knows she tried to poison him at the behest of the enemy (which would have gotten him killed in the original novel's events), thereby failing her test. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal!: After he and Wei Na wind up miserable, Youji taunts Xavier that Su Lüxia won't give a damn about him since he's "just a lowly human" and that Xavier's just setting himself up for disappointment if he stays with her. Xavier shuts him up by informing Youji that he witnessed him begging Su Lüxia to turn him back into a vampire before being unceremoniously thrown out, saying he gave up faster than Wei Na did. As far as Xavier is concerned, petty insults from a whiner don't mean jack to him. | |

Tranquil Fury: In the second arc, Su Lüxia gives Lin Xue a recording of An Sheng’s attempts to get back with her while being essentially engaged to Lin Xue. After Su Lüxia leaves and An Sheng comes in later to meet with Lin Xue, she has an eerily cold demeanor as she listens to An Sheng’s requests. Lin Xue drops the bomb that she knows what An Sheng’s been doing and immediately breaks it off with him, withdrawing the support he'd started dating her for in the first place. Lin Mozhi is eerily cold to Tang Mengying during the awards ceremony when she gives her and Chen Ge her “congratulatory gift�, which turns out to be a scandalous recording of the two having an affair. | |

Su Lüxia's job is to enter small worlds based on In-Universe existing media and take over the bodies of mistreated women who have died, with the System providing the original story for her to use as a reference. However, the prequel reveals that the System only provides detailed story knowledge to experienced agents, and the ninth and tenth arcs have Su Lüxia entering the small worlds as herself. | |

Honey Trap: The Arc Villain of the thirteenth arc is an author who used the Demon System to create an artificial story world. Her ultimate plan is to use Media Transmigration on said story world, play around for a bit, and eventually leave, allowing the Demon System to destroy the created story world. Su Lüxia very convincingly transforms herself into a handsome man and seduces the Arc Villain of the thirteenth arc to manipulate her into trapping herself for good. Lacking the actual "equipment" needed to bed her and not particularly wanting to go that far in the first place, Su Lüxia cheats, using Black Magic to hypnotize the target into dreaming that they slept together. | |

Tang Mengying begs Su Lüxia to help her after she's reduced to poverty due to her sex scandal. She's ignored. | |

The reason he had lost contact with her was because she was Dead All Along, having died in a car accident three years ago. Her spirit was trapped by Unfinished Business, and while she was initially relieved to see him with Cao Xueyi, she ultimately sacrificed her very soul to expose Cao Xueyi's cheating on him and prevent her from exploiting him. He's shown in tears once he wakes up. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect: Lüxia and Tang Mengying engage in a live writing competition where they must spontaneously write a story based on a random theme. Mengying cheats by getting the theme leaked to her early so she could prepare. She defeats Lüxia, but Gu Qingxing, a highly influential literary talent scout, notes that Mengying’s work was too perfect for something supposedly written on the spot from a random theme and that it felt too polished. He also noticed Mengying wrote characters using a completely different accent from her own, when normally a writer would choose to write things more familiar with them when considering a time limit. Due to this, when it comes to light Mengying may have plagiarized her entry, the present evidence is enough to make Qingxing null Mengying's win for the contest. In contrast, Qingxing is pleased with Lüxia's abilities after having her write another piece to make her a contract writer. | |

He begs for his life, but she denies him and brings up all the crimes he committed in the past, including gang-raping a young woman and driving her to suicide, taking an engaged woman against her will and beating her to death, and killing the parents of a little girl he hurt, then tied to them as he dumped the whole family in a river. Ling wonders to himself why "Ziyue" would bring up such "meaningless incidents" as he continues to beg for his life, earning him a vicious throat slash. | |

As such, Su Lüxia is able to take advantage of various tropes and narrative devices to use them against the antagonist author, who can only manipulate the story world within the rules of the Theory of Narrative Causality. | |

In the fifth arc, schoolgirl Lüxia is Bullied into Depression and prepares to jump from the school roof. In a final effort to reach out, she calls her apathetic crush, who cruelly insults her and tells her to get on with it. She does. | |

The Gadfly: Su Lüxia enjoys teasing her System partner in particular, and her preferred type seems to be men she can tease in general, like her eventual husband Gu Chen. | |

Genius Loci: Story worlds have a will that attempts to guide the characters to act out their destiny. However, it can normally be interrupted fairly easily by sufficient outside interference. | |

Domestic Abuse: In the fourth arc, Liang Qun begins to beat his wife after starting an affair with a younger, slimmer dance hall singer. He eventually beats his wife to death, providing the entry point for Su Lüxia to take over her body. It's noted that this wasn't something that happened in the original work and Su Lüxia deduces this as a consequence of a transmigrator's actions. | |

The reason Su Lüxia was called during the 14th arc was because the readers of the original story were so outraged by the story's Esoteric Happy Ending that it was enough resentment to summon the Supporting Character System. | |

Jing Chen inexplicably allows the stupid female lead of his story to get away with all kinds of mischief without even trying to teach her a lesson. Since the story was unfinished, he became a case of Grew Beyond Their Programming and was actually using her mistakes to sabotage his opponents rather than just mindlessly spoiling her. If the story had been finished, he really would have been mindlessly spoiling her, with the story ultimately culminating into a pointless Heroic Sacrifice on her behalf. | |

Parental Incest: Of a sort. In the first arc, Su Lüxia adopts the young prince Yun Ling and raises him as her son, leaving the world and letting her host character die when he's ready to rule without her. The eighth arc sees her return to the same world some years after the queen mother's death, and her new incarnation catches the eye of the young emperor, even sharing a kiss with him. While they eventually marry, the incest is subverted with the reveal that Yun Ling deduced her true identity early on and was simply following her lead, and when they speak frankly on the wedding night all he asks is for her to pat his head before she leaves his world again, like she used to do when he was a child. | |

Off the Rails | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_60eac4ba | comment |
Off the Rails: The Supporting Character System usually goes after the protagonists of poorly-written stories for their misdeeds, but it will also target protagonists who started committing misdeeds after their original fates were interfered with. The original plot of the Waltz of Love Dating Sim would not have warranted the Supporting Character System's attention, but due to a glitch in the world's creation, the Dating Sim mutates into a System, causing its protagonist, Nanako, to walk down a much darker path that could cause the entire world to collaspe. At the start of Cao Xueyi's original story, she realized that Being Evil Sucks and used her second chance as a Peggy Sue to reform and get back together with her first love. After the Demon System intervenes, the story changes, and she continues cheating on him even after she gets back together with him. | |

Plot Hole | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Plot Hole: These occasionally come up In-Universe. If an author doesn't explain a plot detail well enough, the created story world will fill in the gaps, and not necessarily in the way the author intended. Jing Chen inexplicably allows the stupid female lead of his story to get away with all kinds of mischief without even trying to teach her a lesson. Since the story was unfinished, he became a case of Grew Beyond Their Programming and was actually using her mistakes to sabotage his opponents rather than just mindlessly spoiling her. If the story had been finished, he really would have been mindlessly spoiling her, with the story ultimately culminating into a pointless Heroic Sacrifice on her behalf. In Qing Ling's story, her fights against ghosts are just intended to show how cool she is. The reason all ghosts are Always Chaotic Evil is never explained. The story world expands upon a vague backstory detail about a ritual to create a Monster Protection Racket as the explanation, with the ghosts themselves only being victims. In the 20th arc, the novel says that the 1st harem member's inconvenient wife died of illness. The story world makes it so that is only the cover story with said wife actually being a victim of Murder the Hypotenuse. | |

Pretty Boy: Since all the small worlds are based on In-Universe existing fiction media, nearly all prominent men are quite handsome in this vein. Outside the worlds, Su Lüxia's System partner himself can become an attractive blond human man, and is initially dismayed that she chooses to have him present as a bamboo rat instead. | |

Drunk with Power | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_64b303c0 | comment |
Drunk with Power: How the Demon System works, giving its hosts power to tempt them to malice. Nanako was once just an unassuming girl no one noticed who wanted to experience being in love, then she discovered the Waltz of Love Conquering System. After finding out how the system works, she used it to make herself into a beautiful, confident woman desired by men. However, Nanako becomes an arrogant, self-centered bitch who only cares about raising her personal stats and using the men she conquers as stepping stones. She no longer cares about finding love, only about keeping her status as the most desired female in her world, and she doesn't care how many families and relationships she destroys to do it. In Cao Xueyi's original story, she realized that Being Evil Sucks and kept her nature as a Gold Digger under restraint after receiving a second chance. After the Demon System rewrites the story and offers her the power to escape the consequences of her actions by resetting time, she isn't satisfied with just clinging to the future world's richest man; she fully indulges in her multi-timing, going out with 37 boyfriends behind each of their backs to win favors and luxury goods until then. Needless to say, even without the supernatural consequences, it probably would have caught up to her beyond the Demon System's ability to help. | |

Brought Down to Normal | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_66ea7e5c | comment |
Brought Down to Normal: Every once in a while, Su Lüxia loses access to the System, rendering her little different from a normal person. In one arc, it's because it was a popular novel, making it too high level for the system to interfere. In another arc, she has to disable the system herself to avoid detection from a demon system. As the story goes on, the system, for unknown reasons, starts requiring more and more maintenance, making these situations more common. In the 15th arc, Su Lüxia has to deal with a village of such absurd, over the top wickedness, that this trope is the only thing stopping her from dropping all subtlety and just slaughtering them all. Unfortunately, the host in this arc is a weak little girl, and without her System's Super-Strength and System tools, it is too risky for her to do so, no matter how skilled she is at martial arts. As such, she has to kill off the villagers sneakily. | |

Formula-Breaking Episode | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_670db7d7 | comment |
Formula-Breaking Episode: There are some arcs where Su Lüxia doesn't directly possess the hosts for various reasons. The ninth arc is the first arc where the Lüxia of the new world doesn't die, triggering a special transfer mode where Su Lüxia enters the world as herself (albeit doll-sized due to System maintenance) and is able to cooperate with her host. The tenth arc has no host to take over; rather than a single character's resentment, Su Lüxia is summoned by the vast collective resentment of all the characters trampled by Kawana Nanako, the game's Player Character. The fourteenth arc is another arc where the host is still alive, and in a twist, is the original story's female lead. Su Lüxia is summoned by the collective resentment of the readers of the story, who got fed up with its Romanticized Abuse and its subsequent invoked Esoteric Happy Ending. Due to the unusual nature of the summoning, Su Lüxia can only take over the host for 12 hours per day, and the host is cognizant of whatever she did in the interim, albeit assuming it the work of an evil spirit possessing her. | |

However, he isn't blind to her faults, and disowns her after she tries to drug him before the Boss Battle and admits that she doesn't care whether vampires destroy humankind, as long as she and Su Youji can be together. In the fourth arc, Lüxia's older brother is very protective of her, and hits Liang Qun with his riding crop after learning that his brother-in-law is fooling around outside while Lüxia is bedridden. However, despite his violent temper, he respects his sister's wishes and refrains from further punishment for the time being even after seeing evidence of her having been abused. | |

The Power of Hate: What draws the attention of the Supporting Character System. When the injustice in a poorly-written story builds up enough resentment, the System intervenes and sends an agent to resolve it. Normally, the person feeling resentment must be related to one of the story's leads, but if it affects enough ordinary people, it can build up a Tulpa to summon the System instead. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: This is the usual fate of the Lüxias who were cheated on or otherwise badly mistreated. In the first arc, imperial Consort Su slams her head against a pillar after being demoted in favour of another consort, although whether she meant to kill herself is unclear. In the second arc, the actress Lüxia is drugged and raped by a married man and footage of the event is leaked online, branding her a homewrecker and ruining her illustrious career. The final straw is when her boyfriend, who orchestrated the assault, publicly announces his impending engagement to another woman he's been seeing behind her back the whole time, and she slits her wrists in despair. In the third arc, the vampiress Lüxia's fiancé sells her out to be captured and tortured by vampire hunters, and she escapes her restraints long enough to kill herself by drinking holy water. In the fifth arc, schoolgirl Lüxia is Bullied into Depression and prepares to jump from the school roof. In a final effort to reach out, she calls her apathetic crush, who cruelly insults her and tells her to get on with it. She does. In the seventh arc, convenience store clerk Lüxia is splashed with sulphuric acid by a spurned admirer and her bedridden grandmother—her last known family member—dies of a heart attack on hearing the news. She hangs herself shortly after her grandmother's death, but returns as a Vengeful Ghost. In the eighth arc, Su Ziyue hangs herself after her reputation is ruined following getting caught in a compromising position with a man (actually a rape attempt orchestrated by her half-sister). Liu Ruyan was an unloved palace consort in her first life, and eventually hanged herself after being continuously tormented by the other consorts. At the end of the first arc, Su Lüxia visits the deposed Consort Liu and goads her into a Murder-Suicide, mocking her stupidity for falling in love with the emperor who mistreated her in her previous life instead of avoiding the palace altogether and pointing out that she will be dead soon anyway. Su Lüxia gets the emperor to visit Liu Ruyan one last time, and she stabs him and then herself. At the end of the sixth arc, Su Lüxia is forced to kill herself to escape Jing Chen and leave his world. Mingyue's mother opts to kill herself rather than face dismemberment for her alleged crimes. In the fourteenth arc, after Yang Zizheng gets arrested and thrown in prison, he finally comes to terms that he does love Su Yaoniang and believes that she hates him and chooses to poison himself in the hopes that they will meet again in the next life. | |

Dead Person Impersonation: In the seventh arc, Su Lüxia manages this even as a ghost herself, with another ghost. After she (as the Lüxia of that arc) becomes known to the Taoist Master Palace as a powerful malicious spirit, she disappears and returns as a sweet, meek little ghost called Xiaxia, kept by the Palace as a future ritual sacrifice. Xiaxia did exist and was in fact Lüxia's cousin from another city, but her spirit was so weak that she used up all her meagre energy and passed on in captivity before Su Lüxia took her place. | |

Rejected Marriage Proposal: Subverted in the second arc. Gu Chen publicly proposes to Su Lüxia at an awards ceremony and she turns him down, suggesting that they try dating first. They share The Big Damn Kiss, and she marries him three years later. In the eighth arc, the Ling family sends betrothal gifts to the Su family as part of an Honorable Marriage Proposal after Su Lüxia is caught with the second Ling son. Since the scandal was engineered, she's able to swear truthfully that there's nothing going on between her and second young master Ling, and her relieved father orders the betrothal gifts to be thrown out. In the tenth arc, Takishima Kai proposes to Su Lüxia out of desperation, knowing that she knows he slept with Nanako right after asking Su Lüxia to be his girlfriend. Her rejection is played absolutely straight. Hoshino Fuji proposes to Su Lüxia onstage in the middle of his televised concert, desperate to make her his asset rather than his future rival should she make her musical debut. She responds by rejecting him on online forums and leaking his casual drug usage to the police. Minamoto Nagamasa asks Su Lüxia to be his wife after growing completely dependent on her, saying he'll even allow her to have affairs as long as she stays by his side. As he's the only one of the three love interests of the tenth arc who truly respects her, he's also the only one she rejects with kindness, kissing his forehead and telling him he'll have to go on without her. | |

The Ageless: Su Lüxia doesn't age, whether she's in the void of the System or in one of the small worlds. It's implied that this is the case for all agents. | |

Her stepsister uses her Compelling Voice to cheat the Paternity Test to take her place. When the real Lüxia discovers the truth, her adoptive parents silence her by putting her into Bedlam House, who drive her insane for real. | |

Cosmic Retcon: In the thirteenth arc, when the author controlling an artificial story world tries to kill off Su Lüxia by making a Genre Shift from romance to horror, the world itself changes from an ordinary modern setting to one with The Masquerade covering up a secret side, filled with The Dark Arts and evil conspiracies. Su Lüxia, playing the main antagonist, finds her office change from ordinary to one full of occult objects overnight, while the female lead has her memories edited to match the new setting. | |

Revenge Is a Dish Best Served: After learning that Tang Mengying plagiarised the work of a leukaemia patient and so deprived the true author of the proceeds necessary for treatment, Su Lüxia gets her bamboo rat partner to take a leak in Mengying's wine glass, causing her to do a Spit Take on a high-level entertainment CEO she was attempting to network with. Note that this petty move has nothing to do with the larger scheme to ruin Mengying—Su Lüxia's just pissed. | |

Right for the Wrong Reasons | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_83cef301 | comment |
Right for the Wrong Reasons: The original Lüxia of the 17th arc refuses to believe that Wen Zheng betrayed for another, to where her wish isn't for revenge against her husband but to return to a time where he loved her. It turns out the female lead actually implanted her lover's soul into Wen Zheng's body, which destroyed the original Wen Zheng's soul in the process, so it really wasn't Wen Zheng who divorced her but the soul who took his body over. | |

The Social Darwinist | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_8573ac0a | comment |
The Social Darwinist: The female lead of the 19th arc is one of the Jerk Justifier variant. Course, the author was almost certainly practicing Protagonist-Centered Morality, so she isn't wrong, even if her lover has to clean up the mess to avoid more narrowly minded people using it as an excuse to pick at her. She tortures and murders the distant descendants of those who sealed her and is justified in doing so because they were weak. She sacrifices countless soldiers because they were weak. She murders the injured soldiers because she doesn't want a superior using it as a reason to file a complaint against her, and she is not only justified in doing so, she is doing them a favor because such weak people will die without amounting to anything, so she sparing them from their worthless existences. | |

Jing Chen becomes somewhat aware that he's in a fictional world due to how poorly-written and inexplicable his story is, and falls in love with Su Lüxia because hers is the only sensible behaviour around him. When she realises how dangerous he is and forcibly escapes, he becomes determined to find a way to leave his world and follow her. The trope name is even the title of the final chapter of his arc. | |

Protagonist-Centered Morality | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_89434320 | comment |
Protagonist-Centered Morality: In-Universe, Su Lüxia's main enemies are usually the protagonists of their stories, and cases of this trope seem to be her System's preferred targets. Many of them are Obliviously Evil, hurting side characters without it even occurring to them that they might be doing something wrong, some are able to justify their actions to themselves as they don't intend harm, and others are malicious enough that they would be straight up Villain Protagonists if it weren't for the twisted morals of their authors. | |

It should be noted that this is pretty much the only time a dead host has ever been revived, with their identities usually dying or vanishing out of existence when Su Lüxia is done granting them their vengeance. | |

Villain Protagonist: The people Su Lüxia goes up against are scumbags who are apparently also the protagonists of the worlds she goes into, although they apparently aren't considered as such in their own stories. She snidely comments about the mental states of some authors who would make such horrible assholes the stars of their stories, promising to give them hell should she encounter them. | |

Karmic Death | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_90d44f44 | comment |
Karmic Death: At the end of the second arc, An Sheng dies alone in his dark apartment with his reputation in tatters, drinking himself to death and cursing Su Lüxia. For bonus karma, this was the original fate of his world's Lüxia. Near the beginning of the seventh arc, He Xuyan disfigures Lüxia by splashing acid in her face just because she didn't want to be with him, thereby destroying her whole family, then has the gall to insult her after her death, taunting that she can do nothing to him. Enter Su Lüxia as a powerful Vengeful Ghost who has Xuyan at her mercy. He pathetically begs for his life, but is ignored as Su Lüxia strangles him, drops him from a great height onto sharpened rocks, disfigures his face, breaks his neck (leaving him still barely alive at this point), then finally shoots him through the chest with a light beam which causes his body and soul to disintegrate to nothing. In the eighth arc, the Ling family's second son whom Mingyue sets to rape Ziyue in the beginning prepares to do so again near the end until he gets held at knifepoint by Su-Lüxia-as-Ziyue. He begs for his life, but she denies him and brings up all the crimes he committed in the past, including gang-raping a young woman and driving her to suicide, taking an engaged woman against her will and beating her to death, and killing the parents of a little girl he hurt, then tied to them as he dumped the whole family in a river. Ling wonders to himself why "Ziyue" would bring up such "meaningless incidents" as he continues to beg for his life, earning him a vicious throat slash. In the The Evil Consort is Busy side story, Gao Youwei, a Straw Misogynist, is ultimately slain by a woman, much to his horror. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: This often happens to the antagonists in each arc, if they don't suffer Karmic Death instead. In the third arc, Wei Na and Youji try to kill Lüxia to gain riches so they can elope in luxury. They end up in a poverty-stricken loveless marriage after losing the superficial reasons they were together: Youji's wealth and Wei Na's beauty (which poverty couldn't maintain). On top of that, Wei Na attempts to (non-fatally) poison her own brother at the behest of the enemy in exhange for Youji's safety. Thanks to Su Lüxia's warning, he figures out the plot and subsequently banishes Wei Na from the family and the grounds upon realizing the extent of her selfishness. Furthermore, Youji betrays Lüxia to the vampire hunters at the beginning of the arc, knowing that the horribly one-sided conditions of the blood pact between them mean that her death would result in him gaining her powers. By the end, Youji is the one who ends up losing his power and vampirism, becoming a normal human and ending up miserable for it. In the fourth arc, transmigrator Bai Ting attempts to ruin Lüxia's marriage to Liang Qun because she admires the actor portraying his character. In the end, he forces her to marry him when she wants to leave and she ends up under the thumb of his tyrannical mother as a houseslave. In the fifth arc, Lüxia commits suicide after being bullied by Alpha Bitch Xiaozhen and especially after being spurned by Mingzhe, who tells her to get on with it. Su Lüxia takes over and makes him fall in love with her, while getting revenge on Xiaozhen by showing she can’t be bullied anymore. Su Lüxia then proves that Xiaozhen was Switched at Birth with Zhen'en and is not part of a rich family, but rather a poor one, robbing her of her social status. This combined with Mingzhe's rejection drive Xiaozhen over the edge and she attempts to kill Su Lüxia in public, only to get stopped by Mingzhe and arrested for attempted murder. Su Lüxia then decides to leave the world and remain only in Mingzhe's memories and no one else's, causing everyone to think him insane and resulting in him leaving everyone he loved to embark on a pointless journey to find her again. In the sixth arc, Feng Wushuang betrays her community and attempts to have romantic trysts with both her mentor, Jing Chen, and the enemy leader Bai Lixuan. Lixuan is killed and Wushuang loses her cultivation and her home, forcing her to age rapidly and live the rest of her life begging on the streets of the common people. In the eighth arc, Mingyue tries anything she can to be rid of her sister Ziyue (Su Lüxia) so she can be empress, including blaming everyone else for her wrongdoings and trying to have Ziyue married off to a grotesque young noble. Su Lüxia turns the tables by killing the noble and pinning the murder on Mingyue, then revealing Mingyue was the one who planned the attack, causing Mingyue to lose her status and be reduced to a palace drudge. To top it off, since the emperor is Su Lüxia's adopted son from a previous arc (and he knows who she really is), there was no romantic element in his choice of empress anyway. To make her fate even more karmic, in order to save face after she couldn't prove to Yun Ling that her sister was having an affair, she pinned all the blame on her servant who was then sold away and died of an illness. Said servant's younger sister helped seal Mingyue's fate by revealing one of her schemes to have Ziyue raped to everyone. In the ninth arc, Tang Mengying is a transmigrator who travels to the past to plagiarise from writers before they can publish their works. She uses her memories to gain fame and fortune, while also sleeping with Chen Ge, a married actor. They are both exposed at an awards show and she loses her reputation and entire fortune, being reduced to living in a slum and hiding during the day. Meanwhile, Chen Ge's wife divorces him and gains custody of their two children, while he is forced to work in gay pornography to pay the penalty fees for the terminations of his professional contracts. In the tenth arc, Nanako is a plain, unassuming girl who discovers the Waltz of Love Conquering System that allows her to see the stats of men and their affection towards her. She perverts the use of the System to conquer men's hearts in order to raise her own physical stats and beauty, before tossing them aside once she's taken all she can get. Worse, she knowingly targets men who are taken and doesn't feel any attachments at all to those she charms, only caring about feeding her own ego no matter how many families and relationships she destroys in the process. In the end, she gets rejected by two of her three intended targets, the last one losing all affection for her as he ships her off to be a Sex Slave of another yakuza group. Su Lüxia also eliminates the Waltz of Love Conquering System, which reverts Nanako back to her original plain Jane self. While this saves her from the yakuza, Nanako loses the social status she spent years building up through said System, leaving her homeless and cold on the streets.' In the eleventh arc, Cao Xueyi is a Gold Digger who abuses the Demon System to indulge in her love of money, luxury, and rich men, cheating on the male lead yet staying with him because she knows he'll be the richest man in the country. When Su Lüxia gets in the way, she has the antagonist of the story, an organized crime boss, send goons to kill her. Su Lüxia once she finally is able to understand all the requirements for the Demon System, sets up things so all of the men Cao Xueyi cheated on discover this fact, including the antagonist of the story, while making her unable to rewind by getting the male lead out of way. She's then captured by said antagonist's goons and Made a Slave forced to work in the coal mines without rest, a life far worst then the life she lived prior to going back in time. | |

Evil Is Easy | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_9492d6a5 | comment |
Evil Is Easy: A host for a system grows stronger and gains more abilities as they complete tasks for it. A Demon System host grows just by absorbing malice, making it far easier for them to build up power than for hosts of the Supporting Character System or the Male Lead System. | |

Villainous Breakdown | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: Xiaozhen slowly goes off the deep end after Su Lüxia exposes the fact that she was Switched at Birth and is really the daughter of a poor couple, robbing her of her social standing, and finally loses it when Mingzhe rejects her in favour of her hated rival. Xiaozhen wastes no time plotting to murder Su Lüxia, starting with ominously sharpening a knife alone in her room complete with Dull Eyes of Unhappiness. Mingyue gradually descends into madness after causing her own mother's death. She's reduced to a palace drudge, then causes a scene after hearing that "Ziyue" and Emperor Yun Ling are going to get married, ranting that she should be the one marrying the emperor. This gets Mingyue beaten into submission by the guards and thrown into solitary confinement, where she begins to hallucinate her mother's ghost, and believes that her mother's dying curse is the reason for her downfall. Nanako is an arrogant Serial Homewrecker who treats men like toys for her to use up and toss aside when she feels bored. Unfortunately for her, she bites off more than she can chew when Minamoto Nagamasa offers her up as a Sex Slave for another yakuza group. Nanako gets hysterical about this, causing a scene and shaming the Minamoto name, and gets knocked out to shut her up so that she can get shipped out. In the end, Nanako is left an ugly homeless bum, cursing Su Lüxia's name and wishing for death rather than having to live her current miserable life. | |

Revenge Before Reason: Some of the people Su Lüxia goes up against are hellbent on taking her down for what she does to them, never mind the fact they were the ones who wronged her or the original Lüxias unprovoked in the first place. Their failures to do so only drive them further over the edge and towards their own ruin. | |

Knowing this as well as his ruthless, ambitious nature, Su Lüxia gains his favour by making herself indispensable as his mentor and aide instead of becoming another one of his lovers, and he falls in love with her for real. | |

Media Transmigration: Su Lüxia's job is to enter small worlds based on In-Universe existing media and take over the bodies of mistreated women who have died, with the System providing the original story for her to use as a reference. However, the prequel reveals that the System only provides detailed story knowledge to experienced agents, and the ninth and tenth arcs have Su Lüxia entering the small worlds as herself. In the fourth arc, Bai Ting is a transmigrator who enters the world of a popular TV drama. She quickly seduces the male lead who was played by her favourite actor, and uses Jay Chou songs in her dance hall repertoire. | |

Greater-Scope Villain | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_9b06e314 | comment |
Greater-Scope Villain: The authors who write stories with Protagonist-Centered Morality, leaving supporting characters to pay the price. Barring intervention from a high level Demon System, such as in the thirteenth arc, they are not normally directly involved in Su Lüxia's work, since story worlds are not created until the author's work is complete, and Su Lüxia has no method to interact with them, let alone retaliate. In most arcs, she is simply left to clean up the mess they left behind, with one exception being the 13th arc. | |

Van Helsing Hate Crimes | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_9b3c14cb | comment |
Van Helsing Hate Crimes: Qi Ling's story revolves around her destroying the souls of Vengeful Ghosts. The author of her story used the battles to emphasize how cool Qi Ling is and never actually explained why ghosts are Always Chaotic Evil, causing the generated world to fill in the gaps. Many of the ghosts weren't evil at all and were only targeting people who wronged them in life. Qi Ling was little more than the Unwitting Pawn of a Monster Protection Racket, which breached the barrier to the afterlife to create business. The wealthy and often evil people that the ghosts wished to take their vengeance on would then pay the exorcists to deal with the vengeful spirits. Getting Qi Ling to discover this truth is the crux of the hidden mission of her arc. | |

Crocodile Tears: A common tactic among her female foes, and Su Lüxia herself isn't above using tears to manipulate men if need be. In the eighth arc in particular, she cries and acts pathetic in front of her host body's father and later the emperor in order to play the victim and gain their sympathy, making her half-sister Mingyue seem hasty and thoughtless in comparison. One of the chapter titles of that arc can even be translated as "Be a Wimp When Necessary". | |

Due to being a Momma's Boy and learning all sorts of lessons about women from his mother, he puts off selecting an empress and doesn't intend to take concubines after seeing how his father's fickle heart hurt his mother. Although he marries Su-Lüxia-as-Ziyue knowing her true identity to help her achieve her original host's wish, he refuses to take another empress or consort after she leaves, in order to honour his promise to take only one wife. | |

In the 15th arc, Su Lüxia has to deal with a village of such absurd, over the top wickedness, that this trope is the only thing stopping her from dropping all subtlety and just slaughtering them all. Unfortunately, the host in this arc is a weak little girl, and without her System's Super-Strength and System tools, it is too risky for her to do so, no matter how skilled she is at martial arts. As such, she has to kill off the villagers sneakily. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_aabe2fb | comment |
The story the 15th arc is set in has a particularly bad case of this, most likely due to a particularly fanatical belief in filial piety. The female lead endures no end of abuse from her in-laws, who rob her of everything, beat her daughter to death, and treat her as a slave. The novel praises the female lead for being such a selfless devoted pushover, and it's original "happy" ending involves her finally winning her mother-in-law's approval. Su Lüxia Lampshades that the novels she's been assigned to have been getting weirder and weirder. The truth turns out to be even worse. The author wrote that story, not because she believed in its morals, but because it actually happened in her real life.invoked | |

While his misogyny makes it impossible for him to find a partner in his original modern world, he transmigrates into a novel set in ancient China and uses his new Emperor System to seize the throne and bend all women in the country to his will, creating a self-styled 'paradise for men'. Enter Su Lüxia, who is summoned by the collective resentment of the people harmed by him and his evil consorts to defeat them and bring stability back to the country. | |

Mayfly–December Romance | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_b1efb7a7 | comment |
Mayfly–December Romance: A known detriment of agents dating mortals. At the end of the second arc, Su Lüxia takes fifty years of leave to stay in the actor world and eventually marries Gu Chen, but she never ages a day and is visibly saddened when looking at footage of his elderly self after her leave is up, deciding not to date in modern-themed worlds anymore as she's unable to do something as simple as growing old with her partners. | |

Surprisingly Elite Cannon Fodder | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_b3a4e20e | comment |
Surprisingly Elite Cannon Fodder: Su Lüxia is renowned as her System's finest agent. She has to be, since her superior and most of her coworkers actively want her dead and have only given up on the Uriah Gambits because they didn't work. Even now that they have given up, Su Lüxia still has to make do with subtle methods while other agents get to use God Mode level System tools that can completely upend the stories they are editing. A big part of this was because she was originally a cannon fodder character and the agent assigned to her died saving her. | |

| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_b43dfc8d | comment |
Your Days Are Numbered: The female lead of the 14th arc is destined to die of disease at the ending of her novel, shortly after the male lead has his Belated Love Epiphany. When Su Lüxia changes the ending to have the male lead pay for his crimes, the female lead is still bound to her original fate, causing her soul to dissipate from her body automatically. Su Lüxia decides to take advantage of this to take a vacation with her identity, having taken an interest in the secondary male lead, the Hero Antagonist. | |

Everyone Has Standards | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: In the The Evil Consort is Busy side story, Su Lüxia quickly realizes that the emperor is not the rival agent because while hosts of the Male Lead System may be losers, they still aren't crass enough to mate outdoors in the grass. Meanwhile, the actual Male Lead System agent Jiang Mo helping Gao Houwei doesn't think highly of him either and finds his Straw Misogynist character distasteful to where he tries to relax some of the sexist laws while in his body. Su Lüxia can be an incredibly pragmatic person, but she's furious about the 17th arc's female lead being willing to essentially kill another person's lover to be with her own, regardless how the other party feels about it. The reason Su Lüxia was called during the 14th arc was because the readers of the original story were so outraged by the story's Esoteric Happy Ending that it was enough resentment to summon the Supporting Character System. In the non-canon chat group story, Cao Xueyi asks Su Lüxia's other antagonists for advice in dealing with the fact that she got caught cheating on 37 men. Even some of them find that impressively disturbing. | |

The second time, Mingyue's opponent is Su Lüxia, and the tables get turned on her to the point where Mingyue has to be saved instead—Su Lüxia knocks her out and makes Mingyue take her place in the setup, then kills the would-be rapist before things go too far. | |

Grand Theft Me: In the The Evil Consort is Busy side story, Su Lüxia uses a System tool to steal the bodies of the evil consorts and a corrupt eunuch, destroying their souls in the process. Male Lead System agent Jiang Mo is likewise coerced into stealing the body of a corrupt maid. The twelfth arc has the Villain Protagonist Li Mengyu use a talismen to steal the body of Tian Mengyao by swapping their souls before proceeding to kill Tian Mengyao in her original body and framing her world's Lüxia, Mengyao's servant, for the crime. In the thirteenth arc, an author writes a Wish-Fulfillment CEO novel with the intention of eventually using a demon system to enact Media Transmigration on her female lead. Su Lüxia attempts to awaken the consciousness of the female lead to prevent this, but fails, allowing the dumb, hypocritical, but kind female lead to get overwritten by the selfish and decadent author. In the seventeenth arc, the female lead supposedly wishes for a Reincarnation Romance, but in actuality, she is attempting to sacrifice one of her lover's descendants for his revival. | |

Outside-Context Problem | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_cc7fae30 | comment |
Outside-Context Problem: What Su Lüxia is to most of her adversaries. Most of them are not aware of anything beyond their own world, and Su Lüxia retains access to many of her abilities, including superhuman strength, even in otherwise completely mundane worlds, making it trivial for her to crush them. The enemies that cause Su Lüxia the most trouble are the ones that figure out the true nature of the multiverse or have Systems of their own. Compared to her colleagues, Su Lüxia is downright subtle. Most of them just brute force their way to victory using System tools to do things like turning themselves into multi-billionaires out of thin air. In the 18th arc, Su Lüxia manages to take some videos as evidence. Some of the videos should have been impossible to take just by hiding the camera. Since the female lead has a Compelling Voice, she isn't completely unaware of the supernatural and concludes that Su Lüxia must have her own power of Invisibility. She isn't completely wrong, it was her invisible System partner who took the videos. | |

| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_d38a4a3 | comment |
Identically Named Group: Inexplicably, every character Su Lüxia takes over shares her name. Averted in the eighth arc, as she's revisiting a world she's already been to and therefore already taken over a character named Su Lüxia, although said new body she inhabits is related to the previous Lüxia. Partially averted in the 14th arc, where the host has the same family name, but a different personal name, presumably due to the unusual nature of the summoning or the fact that she's the actual female lead instead of the antagonist or a side character. Also averted in the 16th arc, as Su Lüxia is doing a substitution for the Male Cannon Fodder department and her character naturally has a completely different name. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Ling Xingzi loudly states she hates rich people, all while clinging to the rich CEO male lead. This is lampshaded by Su Lüxia. In the seventeenth arc, several women start wondering if they have a chance with the male lead now that he has apparently betrayed his wife, Lüxia, causing the female lead he betrayed her to to fume. Spirit Cultivation Genre novels are more often than not based upon the law of the jungle. The poorly written ones proceed from there to promote Protagonist-Centered Morality, hence why the heroine of the 19th arc is not only justified in sadistically torturing people for the Sins of Our Fathers, but it would actually be wrong for her to not do so. Su Lüxia points out that if the novel is really promoting the law of the jungle, then the heroine's original sealing should also be justice by these standards rather than an injustice against her. | |

Seeks Another's Resurrection: Su Lüxia's main motive. She was originally one of the very supporting characters agents of the System are meant to save. The agent assigned to save her, Agent Zero, fell in love with her and ultimately performed a Heroic Sacrifice for her sake. His organization begrudgingly recruited her, but refused to divulge any firm information about the ultimate fate of a dead agent. Whether by getting promoted to the highest ranks, or via subterfuge, Su Lüxia hopes to gather the information and resources needed to bring him Back from the Dead. | |

Romanticized Abuse | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_d72a4480 | comment |
The fourteenth arc is another arc where the host is still alive, and in a twist, is the original story's female lead. Su Lüxia is summoned by the collective resentment of the readers of the story, who got fed up with its Romanticized Abuse and its subsequent invoked Esoteric Happy Ending. Due to the unusual nature of the summoning, Su Lüxia can only take over the host for 12 hours per day, and the host is cognizant of whatever she did in the interim, albeit assuming it the work of an evil spirit possessing her. | |

RPG Mechanicsverse: More or less what a System is. Systems are purpose driven Emotion Eaters that give out missions to the agents that are connected to them. For each mission an agent completes, they earn points that can be spent on increasing their abilities or buying special tools. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_d9ffec82 | comment |
Curbstomp Battle: Xiaozhen and her cronies relish beating up helpless students to assert their superiority. Once Su Lüxia enters the world in the middle of one such attack, she easily beats the crap out of Xiaozhen and her cronies, commenting on how pathetic she is to have gone down so easily despite bragging about superiority. | |

Despair Event Horizon | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
While Su Lüxia usually takes over her host's body after death, there are exceptions when the host sustains damage (physical, social or otherwise) too great to repair. In such cases, events are rewound slightly and she makes her entrance a short period before the fatal moment. In the second arc, Lüxia kills herself after footage of her rape is leaked online and her glorious reputation is irreparably trashed. Su Lüxia takes over after Lüxia is drugged but before the rapist enters the room, using a System tool to purge the drug and become clearheaded and able to turn the tables on her attacker. In the fifth arc, Lüxia is beaten up and humiliated by Pu Xiaozhen and her cronies, thoroughly rejected by Min Mingzhe and ridiculed by the rest of the student body. She jumps off the school roof, making her death rather difficult to come back from (most suicides depicted in the comic are clean hangings). Su Lüxia takes over during the beating instead, quickly overpowering her bullies and preventing the worst of the damage. | |

Caught on Tape: In the ninth arc, Tang Mengying accepts an award at an awards ceremony, where Lin Mozhi, Chen Ge's wife, offers her a "congratulatory gift" live. To Mengying and Chen Ge's horror, the video she plays on the big screen for all to see features the adulterous couple about to get it on back in the amusement park haunted house attraction. | |

Cruel Mercy | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_e19e68 | comment |
Cruel Mercy: One of Su Lüxia's tactics. At the end of the third arc, she lets Su Youji and Wei Na Bavalenka leave their families to start a new life together, knowing full well that the two Spoiled Brats won't be able to live comfortably without their financial safety nets and that their shallow personalities and the resulting poverty will lead to a bitterly unhappy marriage. At the end of the fourth arc, she finally gives in to Bai Ting and Liang Qun, agreeing to divorce Liang Qun so they can marry. However, by this point Liang Qun has already seen Bai Ting's true colours and no longer wants to be with her, but Su Lüxia later manipulates events to force them to marry and see her revenge through. At the climax of the eighth arc, she kills an unconscious Mingyue's would-be rapist and his accomplices, then plants her bloodied cloak and dagger on Mingyue to frame her for murder (albeit in self-defence). At the end of the tenth arc, arrogant Gold Digger Nanako gets elected to be shipped out to be a yakuza group's Sex Slave. Su Lüxia destroys the Waltz of Love Conquering System and reverts Nanako back to how she originally looked like. Though this saves her from being a Sex Slave as well as possible arrest, Nanako is left with absolutely nothing as she's reduced to being a disheveled homeless bum no one gives a damn about. While Nanako curses Su Lüxia and says her opponent should have just killed her rather than leave her in this state, the cruelty is downplayed as Su Lüxia notes that Nanako has the brains and ability to escape her situation, if only she weren't fixated on her original goals (though she probably saw that coming anyway). | |

Peggy Sue: While Su Lüxia usually takes over her host's body after death, there are exceptions when the host sustains damage (physical, social or otherwise) too great to repair. In such cases, events are rewound slightly and she makes her entrance a short period before the fatal moment. In the second arc, Lüxia kills herself after footage of her rape is leaked online and her glorious reputation is irreparably trashed. Su Lüxia takes over after Lüxia is drugged but before the rapist enters the room, using a System tool to purge the drug and become clearheaded and able to turn the tables on her attacker. In the fifth arc, Lüxia is beaten up and humiliated by Pu Xiaozhen and her cronies, thoroughly rejected by Min Mingzhe and ridiculed by the rest of the student body. She jumps off the school roof, making her death rather difficult to come back from (most suicides depicted in the comic are clean hangings). Su Lüxia takes over during the beating instead, quickly overpowering her bullies and preventing the worst of the damage. In the first arc, Liu Ruyan is an imperial consort who was ignored by the emperor and mistreated by the other consorts, leading to her death. While she gets to start over and uses her second chance to win the emperor's love, she still meets a tragic end. Su Lüxia points out that if she'd been smarter, she would have used her new life to avoid the palace entirely instead of falling in love with the same man who'd been her enemy. In the ninth arc, Tang Mengying travels ten years into the past and uses her knowledge of popular media fads to gain wealth and fame. In the eleventh arc, Cao Xueyi's story originally involved her receiving a second chance to be with her first boyfriend after realizing that Being Evil Sucks. After the Demon System intervenes, the story changes, and the Demon System gives her the power to reverse time every time her sins catch up to her, allowing her to get away with not learning her lesson. To make matters worse, when Su Lüxia is sent to deal with the situation, she is not protected with Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory. By the end of the 3rd timeline, Cao Xueyi is Made a Slave, making her even worse off than she was in the first timeline. | |

Conspicuous Consumption: After the author of her story uses Grand Theft Me on Ling Xingzi's body, she uses a Cosmic Retcon to turn Ling Xingzi into the long lost princess of a modern country that practices slavery. Why? Because the author doesn't like owning things other people have, so she has the enslaved craftsmen build her stuff once and then locks them away for the rest of their lives. | |

Female Misogynist | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_f1ac9897 | comment |
Female Misogynist: The original Lüxia of the 15th arc was beaten to the brink of death. Her father's relatives proceeded to unceremoniously dump her body and left her for dead. She managed to survive, recover, and even prosper. Believing that her mother would be traumatized by her apparent murder, she planned to rescue her and take her into her new home. Instead, she found her mother groveling for approval from her would be murderers, willingly acting as their slave, and apparently indifferent to her fate. Feeling betrayed by her complete pushover of a mother, she rationalized it by deciding that her mother was simply performing her duty as a woman. Lüxia chose to use the Demon System to reincarnate as a man to escape such a fate. | |

Rage Against the Author | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_f2a6d76d | comment |
Rage Against the Author: Normally, an author's story won't give birth to a world until the story is finished, at which point the already complete characters with appropriate personalities will act out their destiny. But if a lazy author makes a deal with the Demon System, it will artificially cause the world to be born before completion and manipulate the characters into acting according to the author's outline, effectively writing the story automatically. One of the problems with this method is that the characters in the incomplete world can develop their own independent consciousness, perceive the author's interference, and rebel against the author's intentions. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Averted hard by Su Lüxia. She completely defies this trope as she thinks it absurd to absolve someone after one moment of humanity despite all the horrible crimes they committed in the past. According to the original story of the second arc, after An Sheng frames Lüxia and drives her to suicide, he continues his heinous acts of stepping on people to achieve success, but repents at some point and ends the story apologizing at Lüxia's grave before continuing to live his happy life. Su Lüxia calls BS on this story branch and intends to rewrite it her way, where he gets exactly what's coming to him for what he's done. In the sixth arc, Su Lüxia calls out Jing Chen for being too lenient with Feng Wushuang and using her youth and inexperience as an excuse, despite the numerous times Wushuang accidentally let loose powerful demons that rampaged around the sect and surrounding areas. In the tenth arc, Su Lüxia betrays the yakuza group she's been a higher-up of for months by exposing their crimes to the authorities. Her System partner is surprised that she would repay the family head this way, but she points out that his respect and good treatment of her don't mean she can overlook the fact that he's a coldblooded murderer. Played straight in the original story of the 15th arc, where the female lead endures constant abuse, including the manslaughter of her daughter, and yet holds no ill-will towards the people who perpetrate it. It's implied however that the female lead (and her real life inspiration) only acted that submissively as a defense mechanism and, unlike her real life counterpart, would do whatever she could to prevent her daughter from suffering her same fate. | |

In the eleventh arc, Cao Xueyi is a Gold Digger who abuses the Demon System to indulge in her love of money, luxury, and rich men, cheating on the male lead yet staying with him because she knows he'll be the richest man in the country. When Su Lüxia gets in the way, she has the antagonist of the story, an organized crime boss, send goons to kill her. Su Lüxia once she finally is able to understand all the requirements for the Demon System, sets up things so all of the men Cao Xueyi cheated on discover this fact, including the antagonist of the story, while making her unable to rewind by getting the male lead out of way. She's then captured by said antagonist's goons and Made a Slave forced to work in the coal mines without rest, a life far worst then the life she lived prior to going back in time. | |

| Cheating Men Must Die (Webcomic) / int_f7bbd5b0 | comment |
I Will Find You: Su Lüxia has left a few pining hearts in her wake. Min Mingzhe is left the only one in his world who remembers her existence, and becomes obsessed with finding her to the point of abandoning his wealthy family to wander alone. Jing Chen becomes somewhat aware that he's in a fictional world due to how poorly-written and inexplicable his story is, and falls in love with Su Lüxia because hers is the only sensible behaviour around him. When she realises how dangerous he is and forcibly escapes, he becomes determined to find a way to leave his world and follow her. The trope name is even the title of the final chapter of his arc. Qi Ling is the only one Su Lüxia invites to come find her after accomplishing her mission, leaving Qi Ling with a hint and a keychain bearing her likeness as a parting gift. Parodied in an extra segment in the format of a mobile group chat, where all the members are characters* (namely Yun Ling, Gu Chen, Xavier and the three characters in the previous points) who want to meet Su Lüxia again. | |

She then has him stripped and photographed, leaving him a written warning not to give An Sheng the part if he doesn't want said photos leaked. Mingyue sets up Ziyue to be raped by the same man twice. The first time, Ziyue manages to escape, but hangs herself later due to the resulting scandal. The second time, Mingyue's opponent is Su Lüxia, and the tables get turned on her to the point where Mingyue has to be saved instead—Su Lüxia knocks her out and makes Mingyue take her place in the setup, then kills the would-be rapist before things go too far. | |

Love Makes You Crazy: While Liu Ruyan starts out no more evil or obsessive than most scheming consorts, she experiences severe Sanity Slippage when, after using her second life to finally win the emperor's love, she loses his favour and is deposed. He visits her one last time in the cold palace, and rather than be abandoned by him, she drugs his tea and stabs them both with the hairpin he gifted her, happily claiming that she can never leave him and they can now be together forever. | |

The tenth arc has no host to take over; rather than a single character's resentment, Su Lüxia is summoned by the vast collective resentment of all the characters trampled by Kawana Nanako, the game's Player Character. | |
