It's been awhile, I read the novel back when the manga first came out so some of the details are fuzzy but the big problems are still prominent in my memory

The initial setting could very well have just been stolen from a Chinese shoujo novel. The original has been pitted by her "friends" and family driven to act ever more outrageously until she is driven out of her family with next to nothing and commits su*cide. The MC who died from poisoning (maybe food, maybe not) at work and is a relative of hers transmigrates in. He immediately starts up life working in a restaurant and it's off to the slow life.

Getting past the lifted premise, there;s so many other problems it's not funny. The family which is fairly prominent doesn't even bother to fake concern about their child committing su*cide. The MC doesn't care about the circumstances of the original's death or his own. He's slogging through highschool again not at all upset over losing his degrees, or even reuniting with the originals family. The family is ridiculous and downright mechanical. Finally the genderbend seems like an after thought and put in as a gimmick to differentiate this from the swarm of novels that are exactly the same.

Maybe it gets better after where I stopped, but I just don't have the perseverance.
