Forced to Inherit a Ten-Billion Fortune, I Go on a Spending Spree for the Male Lead

Entering VIP on July 14, 2026. Please add my new transmigration-into-a-book story to your collection: The Tycoon CEO Says He Loves Me. Blurb at the end. A sharp-dressed nouveau riche CEO top × a proud and flamboyant catlike young master bottom.

Blurb:

A sweet romance. The awakened bottom is aloof and sharp-tongued, but soft-hearted; the reborn top is cold and restrained, and a jealous wreck.

When Qi Yuan wakes up in the hospital, he realizes that he's merely a minor character in a career-focused novel, there to push the male lead toward villainy.

He was already being bullied at his elite school. He resolutely helped the male lead, who was being bullied too, but his classmates retaliated with even worse bullying. He slit his wrists at home and died after emergency treatment failed.

The news reached the school and became the first nightmare the male lead could never escape. It was also the catalyst that began raising his villainy points.

In the novel, the male lead, Mu Jin, is the orphaned heir of the powerful Mu family's main branch. Not only was his parents' fortune taken from him, but he was also forced to live under someone else's roof. After finally getting into the city's top public high school with excellent grades, he was forcibly transferred to an elite school by his relatives during his senior year, where he was bullied by the children of the upper class.

Qi Yuan is a minor character through and through. Though he was born into a wealthy family, his father's mistress took his place, and he and his mother were driven out. His mother worked hard to afford his tuition at an elite school, hoping he would make something of himself and return to the Qi family one day to make them eat their words. But before his senior year, his mother died of grief over her broken marriage and heartbreak.

But after awakening and surviving, Qi Yuan realizes that his role as a minor character in the book has already been fulfilled. He decides to leave all his pain behind and start over.

Before he can even leave the hospital, a lawyer from the Qi family calls to tell him that the entire family has died in a car accident. The Qi matriarch has also been hospitalized in critical condition after being unable to bear the shock, and she has rewritten her will, naming him the primary heir to the family fortune.

He stands to inherit at least 10 billion, including a known 10% stake in a listed company, a European-style winery estate, five luxury homes, two shops in prime locations, and three undeveloped plots of land.

Qi Yuan: "..."

Qi Yuan can't deny that all that money is tempting. But remembering how the Qi family treated him and his mother, he wants nothing to do with them. The money his mother left him is already enough to see him through university.

But the Qi matriarch refuses to follow convention. She has him dragged into her hospital room and forces him to sign a series of contracts, then dies with nothing but an apology.

Qi Yuan is overwhelmed with mixed feelings. The inheritance is already his, and he can't get rid of it. He even starts losing sleep over it.

Just as Qi Yuan begins to waste away, a thought suddenly strikes him: why not invest some of the money in the male lead before he makes it big, and ease the burden of carrying such an enormous inheritance?

Who would have thought that inheriting a fortune would also force him to bind himself to an Investor System?

Investor System: You won't spend a single cent of your money!

Qi Yuan: It's so hard watching my money grow every day. (sobbing)

Not long after Mu Jin builds a business empire, he gets into an accident and is reborn back in his senior year. He wants to save Qi Yuan, who killed himself because of him, but finds that not only is Qi Yuan alive, he's also saying, "How about we start a business together? You provide the brains, I'll provide the money."

The Investor System keeps rushing to give Qi Yuan money. Before long, Qi Yuan has earned himself:

◎ No. 1 on A City's Young Billionaires List

◎ C Nation's Most Beautiful Young Philanthropist

◎ Asia's Most Handsome Young Tycoon and Brand Ambassador

◎ The Most Handsome and Wealthiest Rural Road-Building Big Brother

Qi Yuan: "...Honestly, this isn't an Investor System. It's a personal-brand marketing system."

System: (covers face) (shy) You've got to develop in every aspect: morality, intellect, physical fitness, aesthetics, and hard work!

Boss Mu, whose beloved is the target of many admirers: (scowling) (unhappy) (launching the Great Wife Protection Campaign!)

Blurb for The Tycoon CEO Says He Loves Me

A sharp-dressed nouveau riche CEO top × a proud and flamboyant young master bottom

Synopsis: Both are each other's first, and both are virgins.

Li Xi transmigrated into a book as a child and didn't remember anything until he came of age. He never imagined his family would arrange a political marriage for him. And on the very day he remembered everything, he caught his intended cheating!

Li Xi is furious. He's never suffered a single injustice in his life, and now he has to suffer the pain of marriage before even getting engaged?

His intended is none other than the male lead, and Li Xi is the minor character who initially gets in the way of the male lead and his love interest! Not only does he fall head over heels for the trashy male lead, lavishing him with resources and acting like a lovesick lapdog, he also causes trouble and bullies and frames the male lead's love interest. In the end, the male lead deals with him brutally, leaving him broken, disfigured, and sunk beneath the sea as fish food.

Li Xi: "W-wait... I'm that unlucky character?"

Li Xi: "When people are speechless, they really do laugh. :) .jpg"

Li Xi decides to take action. He secretly hires people to beat up his cheating intended. To clear himself of suspicion and stay alive, he pretends to be heartbroken and gets drunk at a bar.

Then somehow, he ends up in bed with someone!

Li Xi regrets it deeply and plans to pretend nothing happened. But when he sees the handsome, deep-set eyes of the man, he pauses, then quickly comes up with a plan.

*

Zhuang Baicheng built an internet empire from nothing, successfully breaking into A City's upper circles and becoming a rising star. Behind his back, though, people call him a nouveau riche bumpkin.

Zhuang Baicheng is baffled. Doesn't everyone care about money nowadays? Why doesn't it work for him?

At the wedding of the eldest son of the refined and prestigious Li family, a group of young people openly gossip about Zhuang Baicheng's background behind his back. Zhuang Baicheng is in a bad mood, but doesn't want to make a scene at someone else's wedding.

Just then, a gorgeous young man with an air of proud aristocracy strides over and snaps, "If you're going to talk about people behind their backs, get out!"

Zhuang Baicheng is stunned. He's completely captivated by the beautiful young man. The other seems to notice his gaze and looks over. That cool, detached glance feels like an electric shock, and Zhuang Baicheng's heart pounds. After 28 years of silence, his heart finally blossoms.

It's love at first sight, Zhuang Baicheng tells himself without hesitation.

After the wedding, Zhuang Baicheng immediately looks for information about the young man, only to discover he's Li Xi, the Li family's eighteen-year-old second son.

But before Zhuang Baicheng can celebrate, he learns that Li Xi is already engaged to the heir of the Lu family.

Heartbroken in an instant, Zhuang Baicheng drinks to drown his sorrows. He ends up spending the night with someone, only to wake up and find the person he can't stop thinking about right beside him.

The other man slowly raises his eyes. The corners are still faintly red, and his expression is as proud as ever. Like a lazy, haughty kitten, he says coolly, "We've already slept together. Don't you think you should take responsibility? Then come to my house and ask for my hand."

Zhuang Baicheng's mind explodes. What? This kind of good fortune actually exists?!

Li Xi's reasoning isn't complicated. Zhuang Baicheng is a major villain in the book, a catalyst and stepping stone who advances the main couple's relationship and careers. Unfortunately, he dies horribly at the end, and the main characters' family swallows up his business empire.

And the Li family? Not only is Li Xi a minor character, but the entire family is destined to be destroyed midway through the story by the male lead's family. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?

Besides, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Saving Zhuang Baicheng while keeping himself alive is a small enough favor.
