After Failing to Inherit an Estate, I Opened a Portal Through Time

As a slacker surrounded by people who live to compete, Jiang Xian had a simple plan for himself: slack off as much as he possibly could. But the old man crushed that beautiful dream. What? A competition to choose the heir? Rescue the dud asset he drew by lot? Was that really something an ordinary guy like him could do? Wait, he drew a scrap recycling station?! Great. Some people start with nothing but a bowl. At least he was starting from a recycling station. What? There was a door at the station that led to other worlds? Gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, famous paintings, scrap robots, obsolete game pods, expired nutrient solutions, failed pills, discarded immortal robes... So this is the joy of dumpster diving? I'm sold! An original fantasy light novel. [Next Novel] Please add "Becoming the Foil in a Contract Marriage Story" to your reading list. After graduating from college, Jiang Lai joined a publicly listed company as the CEO's assistant. Her boss was a sharp-tongued man, and for the sake of her high salary, Jiang Lai put up with five years of torment from her idiot boss. One day, her boss suddenly decided he needed someone to enter a fake marriage with him. He offered to give his wife 100,000 yuan a month for household expenses, and after they divorced a year later, he would compensate her with a house. She would only need to help him deal with his relatives, put on an affectionate act when necessary, avoid clinging to him or pestering him, keep her distance, and part on good terms. Jiang Lai thought, What a deal! She immediately volunteered. Instead, her idiot boss mistakenly thought she had a crush on him and was hopelessly in love. For the money, Jiang Lai held her nose and went along with it. On the night they got their marriage certificate, she dreamed that she was actually the foil in a contract-marriage novel. The male lead was her idiot boss's cousin. After the leads entered a contract marriage, they went through a series of melodramatic twists before reaching a happy ending. As the foil, she would go out of her way to ruin her own life, cling desperately to her idiot boss and refuse to divorce him. In the end, she would be kicked out with nothing. After waking up, Jiang Lai remembered how she'd fallen madly in love with her idiot boss in the dream. Ugh, that's revolting. Help! She refused to believe that dream version of herself was her. Who would fall for a sharp-tongued man who spewed venom nonstop? +++++ Jiang Lai just wanted to lie low until the year was up, then get divorced and leave. The male lead's perspective: Shen Zhao's lifelong nemesis was his cousin, Gu Chengan. When that perfect child from another family suddenly got married, Shen Zhao refused to be left behind. He never expected to discover that his little assistant was hopelessly in love with him. Well, he was an exceptional man. It was only natural that she couldn't control herself around him every day. Since she was so deeply in love, he would magnanimously accept her proposal. The day after they got their marriage certificate, she angered him so badly he ended up in the hospital. 1. Neither lead has ever dated. This is a childish, schoolyard-style romance. 2. The male lead has a short fuse. When he gets angry, he can literally pass out. 3. I'm mainly updating another story. I'll post this one once it's finished. It's short and sweet. 4. The blurb has been screenshotted and saved, July 18, 2022. Note: The entire novel is already drafted. I'll start posting when it's finished. Please add it to your reading list! Theme: Respect and love yourself Theme: Sort trash and turn waste into treasure
