"Correction, I was not forced! I did this voluntarily!"

Genius investor Bai Xu suddenly transmigrated into a book, becoming the most despised adopted son of the Bai family in a novel about wealthy family power struggles—

The original host was an orphan, and just because of a single line from a fortune-teller said 'his fate is hardy enough to ward off disaster,' he had become the Bai family's young master in name only.

The original host had a fine face but a timid, wooden-headed personality. He held the title of young master in name only; in reality, even the servants could bully him.

It was only after the family patriarch who held power passed away that the Bai family, for the sake of business interests, forcibly arranged for the original host to marry, under the pretext of a 'luck-marriage,' the comatose third young master of the Shang family, who had been in a car accident—

In less than a year, the original host was set up and used by others, dying senselessly in the Shang family's power struggle.

Less than three days after Bai Xu transmigrated in, he found himself facing a full-blown forced-marriage scene.

Facing the various scheming, calculating members of the Bai family, Bai Xu glanced once more at the unconscious marriage partner on the hospital bed, then spoke up on his own:

"Marriage is, after all, a matter between two families. Since my future husband-to-be isn't in a position to participate, why don't you all just work out the bride price and dowry among yourselves and transfer it straight to my account."

Caught off guard by his blunt talk of money, everyone present: "?"

Once the terms were settled and the hospital room door closed, Bai Xu immediately started humming happily to himself: "Tsk tsk tsk, good-looking but unconscious, rich family but no control over me. Where else could I find such a perfect, practically null and void, transparent marriage? Practically free money~"

Shang Yanxiao, who was faking unconsciousness: "……"

As the third young master of the Shang family, Shang Yanxiao had been a favored son of fortune since childhood, recognized by insiders in the capital's social circles as the 'heir of the Shang family'—until a carefully orchestrated car accident took his parents' lives and left his younger brother disabled.

In order to lull the mastermind behind the accident into a false sense of security, and more importantly, to draw the snake out of its hole, Shang Yanxiao had no choice but to temporarily feign unconsciousness. He never expected that within a week he'd be forcibly saddled with a 'luck-marriage' union.

Shang Yanxiao had assumed his marriage partner wouldn't last more than a few days before taking the money and running, but instead, the other party seemed to be thoroughly enjoying himself—

On one hand, he'd leave slacking, dismissive servants speechless with his retorts; on the other, he could charm the family patriarch who held power until the old master couldn't stop smiling; he'd play innocent and foolish to lead the other Shang relatives around in circles, all while holding forth about investments to business partners on the phone.

Far from being unpleasant, he was actually rather likeable :)

To avoid following in the original host's footsteps, Bai Xu spent his days working hard to earn his own money, occasionally 'teasing' his comatose husband to relieve stress—
