Also known as My Room Is the Corrupt Official's Pocket Dimension
[The hero's version]
When he was twelve, the useless Xie Linqing was stripped of his title as heir to the commandery prince's estate and kicked out of his home, becoming the laughingstock of the capital.
Just when he was out of options, the jade pendant his late mother left him opened up a pocket dimension.
Inside were delicious foods from the twenty-first century, strange appliances, and Five Hundred Years of Imperial Exams: Three Years of Practice Tests.
[The heroine's version]
Shen An'an is a miserable student fighting on the front lines of the college entrance exam.
After her parents divorced, they each went off to pursue their own happiness, leaving her with a haunted three-bedroom apartment and a bank card.
At first, everything was normal. Until one day, a little kid in ancient clothes suddenly appeared in her kitchen, chewing on the fried chicken she'd just ordered for delivery.
Xie Linqing: This is delicious!
