After Transmigrating into a Book, the Richest Man Only Wants to Be a Slacker

Upcoming: Hi, My Inheritance

After a lifetime of hard work, Gu Bai finally made the list of the richest people. Before he could enjoy even a single day of the good life, his time was suddenly up.

He transmigrated into a wealthy-family drama novel as a powerless cannon-fodder character who was tormented until nothing was left of him right from the opening.

On his first day after transmigrating into the book, a fight over the family fortune broke out. Gu Bai wanted no part of it. He just wanted to be a lazy fish, eat his fill, and wait to die.

"Give me the share that's mine, and you can divide the rest among yourselves." With that, Gu Bai left the Gu family, suitcase in hand.

Later, the head of the Gu family faked his own death to fool his rival. He never expected to see the Gu family in chaos, with everyone coveting his fortune.

He immediately made a will, leaving his entire estate to Gu Bai, the only one who hadn't fought over it.

Gu Bai was one step closer to eating his fill and waiting to die.

Gu Bai lived off his share of the family fortune until it was gone. As the days passed, he felt there was nothing to look forward to. This couldn't go on.

Then the Chu family proposed a marriage alliance with the Gu family. When Chu Zeshen came to visit, Gu Bai caught a glimpse of him from afar.

He'd found something to look forward to.

Gu Bai married Chu Zeshen and moved into the Chu family home.

Gu Bai's range of activity in the Chu home was limited: the bedroom and the sofa in the living room.

One day, Chu Zeshen was reading some documents on the sofa. Gu Bai came out of the bedroom, picked up a document from the sofa, and casually said, "This one's no good."

Chu Zeshen asked, "What's wrong with it?"

Gu Bai didn't want anything to do with his past life, so he lazily replied, "It's no good because it's taking up my sofa."

Chu Zeshen rejected the proposal and implemented another one instead. In the end, it won the Chu Group an international partnership.

Watching the company's stock price shoot up, Chu Zeshen suddenly felt that his husband might have some kind of uncanny luck.

After that, he put a few more documents on the sofa, and every one of them made money when he followed his husband's advice.

One day, Gu Bai couldn't stand having his sofa taken up by documents any longer. He said to Chu Zeshen, "Do you know how exhausting it is to keep throwing documents away?"

Chu Zeshen put an arm around him. "Want to take a position at my company?"

Gu Bai: "?" He only wanted to lie flat like a lazy fish.

Gu Bai glanced at him, completely uninterested.

Chu Zeshen added, "Everything I own will belong to you someday."

At last, a glimmer lit up Gu Bai's calm eyes.

I don't want to, but he said the family fortune will be mine.

Blurb:

In his previous life, Yan Yu died on the way to being reunited with his wealthy birth family.

Only after his death did Yan Yu learn he was a minor character in a novel. One line in the story, "The real young master died in a car accident," had decided his fate.

The fake young master was the novel's beloved darling, loved by everyone.

Let them love him. It had nothing to do with Yan Yu, even if they loved him to death.

"Young Master Yan, this is the will from your parents."

Wait, don't love him just yet. Yan Yu picked up the document and stared at it in disbelief. "You want me to enter a marriage alliance? What about the inheritance?"

"Your parents left their entire estate to Young Master Li."

Yan Yu: Then I might as well die.

Wait a minute. Yan Yu heard that his marriage partner was a sickly young master who was out of breath after three steps, and the only son of a wealthy family.

So the inheritance was coming after all.

Yan Yu: I'm not dying anymore. Not dying.

Duan Bohuai had been raised apart from the Duan family from a young age. As the only direct-line heir, he grew up in poor health and couldn't hold the family together on his own. The collateral branches took advantage of that and gradually sidelined the direct line.

Duan Bohuai didn't know he was about to become someone's husband until the day of the wedding. When he returned to the bridal suite and opened the door, a young man came out, smiling brightly with an innocent look in his eyes.

Yan Yu's eyes lit up when he saw Duan Bohuai. Hi, my inheritance.

As the inheritance, ahem, as Duan Bohuai's spouse, Yan Yu took on the responsibility of caring for his husband.

If he was out of breath after three steps, then he simply shouldn't walk.

Yan Yu got Duan Bohuai a wheelchair, and he used it to get around, even to and from work.

Seeing Duan Bohuai in a wheelchair, the Duan family's collateral branches assumed his condition had worsened and brazenly sped up their efforts to sideline the direct line.

Duan Bohuai seized the chance to catch them in the act.

Yan Yu personally fed Duan Bohuai.

The collateral branches assumed Duan Bohuai didn't have long to live, so they colluded with the company's directors to prepare for the next board meeting.

Duan Bohuai began to close the net and strike back.

Yan Yu dutifully cared for Duan Bohuai, hoping only that he would leave his entire estate to him when he died.

But the more he cared for him, the more something felt off. Touching the abs beneath Duan Bohuai's shirt, he thought, Why does this guy seem to be getting stronger and stronger?

One day, Duan Bohuai picked Yan Yu up from where he was sleeping on the sofa.

Yan Yu opened his eyes groggily. "You're not out of breath anymore?"

Duan Bohuai carried him upstairs. "Do you want to hear me pant?"

Yan Yu nodded. "I do."

If Duan Bohuai started panting, it would mean Yan Yu was about to get his inheritance.

That was until the two of them got drunk and slept together.

Remembering how Duan Bohuai had panted in his ear the night before, Yan Yu lay on the bed, utterly dejected. I might as well die after all.
