Zhang Chen gets dumped by his girlfriend because he’s too poor. After drinking himself unconscious over the breakup, he gets bound to the [Spendthrift System]. From then on, his life goes completely off the rails:
He buys a mansion for his “poor parents.” When his father sees the bill, he has a heart attack on the spot. “Where did this spendthrift get all that money?!”
He face-slaps his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend, who angrily smashes a million-yuan sports car. “Think I can’t crush you with money?!”
He casually invests in a garbage company, which goes public three months later and multiplies in value a hundredfold. His peers drop to their knees and beg, “Young Master Zhang, take me with you!”
“Wait, I didn’t make any money! I’m just spending it all! How come I have more the more I spend?!”
Zhang Chen thinks he’s honoring his parents, face-slapping people, and blowing his money.
What he doesn’t know is…
His dad is the richest man in the country, lying in a hillside mansion clutching his heart and spitting blood. “This account is ruined again! Honey, should we try harder and have another one?”
His mom is an award-winning actress and a consummate schemer. She smacks his dad on the head. “Honestly, can you even do it anymore?”
Meanwhile, the System quietly records everything: “This Host sure knows how to spend.”
Then one day…
Zhang Chen rushes home, thrilled. “Mom, Dad! I’m the richest man now! I could never spend all this money in several lifetimes!”
His father sees the tycoons from the Forbes list behind his son, and the teacup slips from his hand and hits the floor.
“The richest man? If you’re the richest man, then… who am I?”
His mother smiles gently. “Son, there’s something we’ve kept from you for twenty years…”
Don't force these mindless settings just to write a book, it's really unpalatable
