After Giving Up, I Inherited a Billion-Dollar Fortune

The miserly coward Jiang Yuche transmigrates into a book. He becomes the third-generation heir to a wealthy family in Jinghai, where everyone is a villain. The original owner drove recklessly, got into fights, threw his weight around, and committed every kind of misdeed. He spent money like water and was infamous among the upper class as someone nobody dared cross. He not only offended the protagonist gong and protagonist shou, but also squandered the entire family fortune, until his grandfather finally had enough and kicked him out. Jiang Yuche was dumbfounded. He decided to learn his lesson and withdraw from the inheritance battle. He'd coast whenever possible and keep a low profile. If he could cling to someone's coattails, he would; if not, he'd save up and make a run for it early. The key was to read the room and take good advice! When his uncle bullied employees, he put family loyalty aside and reported him. When his cousin ran amok and disrupted the entertainment industry, he issued a warning and left the industry. When his younger sister was pushed into a marriage alliance, he advised her to break it off. When his older brother exploited migrant workers, he followed behind him, frantically handing out money and aching at every cent spent. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you! As he kept slacking off and cowering, little by little he noticed the way people around him looked at him had changed. Employees throughout the company called him their dream man and put an eighteen-layer filter on him. Fans across the entertainment industry called him their sugar daddy and begged him to debut for the good of humanity. Even his reformed family members were moved to tears, saying, "Big Brother really does care about me most! I was the one who failed to appreciate all his good intentions!" What on earth are you all imagining? Fortunately, the protagonist gong and protagonist shou remained cool and composed around him from beginning to end. They went to work, made money, sang, and acted as usual. Aside from the occasional strange glint in their eyes, too much physical contact, and some inexplicable possessiveness, not much had changed. Until one day, the protagonist shou pinned him against a wall backstage at a concert and confessed to him. The protagonist gong calmly pushed up his glasses and kept him trapped in bed, ignoring his aching waist as he said they should try again. Only then did he understand what these people were after. Try what? Aren't you two a couple? Why are you both coming after me?! Inheriting the family fortune is one thing, but now I have to inherit the male lead too? (=OДO=) Miserly, protective, timid, obedient, and laid-back shou X outwardly refined, beautiful, strong, and tragic, but actually a scheming, possessive, disabled big shot gong Reader's Guide: ① Updates will be revised starting July 18, with a stable daily schedule. ② This story is entirely fictional, and includes no real people.

Please bookmark my upcoming story, The Real Young Master's Secret Identity Has Been Exposed Again and Again! Song Yu is a minor, transparent little vase in the entertainment industry. Ever since his debut, haters have mocked him for having no acting skills, being useless at fighting, and being tone-deaf. He has only one thing going for him, a face that's barely worth looking at, yet he keeps trying to compete with people out of his league and annoys everyone. One day, the domestic entertainment industry announces a legendary dating show. The contestants are either award-winning actors or top-tier stars, or at the very least, famous fashion designers, medical PhDs, heirs to wealthy families... And he is among them. The doubtful voices nearly drown him out, as viewers mock him. "How does this nobody in the entertainment industry even dare to go on a dating show? Does he think he's good enough for any of them?" "Go look in a mirror. Even the Mariana Trench isn't that deep a divide." "How did the production team pick the cast? There must be some kind of shady deal going on!" But when the show finally aired, they were astonished to discover... The legendary actor corners Song Yu against a wall when no one's around. "Have I ever told you that your eyes look just like the first choice I ever made for my show's White Moonlight?" The top-tier star openly serenades Song Yu at a concert: "Who are you, mysterious Maria? An angel or a devil, hell or heaven..." The genius race car driver whistles at Song Yu in public, grinning with carefree radiance. "Song Yu, if I win this race, you have to go on a date with me." The fans are stunned, shouting in disbelief, "What kind of spell did Song Yu put them all under?!" But when one secret identity after another is exposed, it turns out that Song Yu is the best stunt double, a genius composer, an up-and-coming race car driver, and more... The viewers go wild. The dating show instantly becomes a battleground of romantic rivals, with every guest competing against the others. Song Yu looks innocent. "I don't know what's gotten into them. I just take the odd part-time job, pouring drinks and stuff. What's wrong with that?" * On the first day of filming, all the guests send a text to the person they're attracted to. Song Yu chooses to send a group text, deliberately leaving out just one person. That night, heir to a wealthy family Qin Quan lies in bed, unable to sleep. He tosses and turns, gritting his teeth. Just because he's become my ex-husband, does he have to be so heartless? [For more completed stories, check out my profile.
