Description
Fu Yunshen is a 28-year-old “rich old man.” One day, he binds a system, which informs him: Due to a system malfunction, six Jinjiang novels have merged with your world. In these novels, the three-time Best Actor, renowned writer, future scientist, top racer… are all your future partners. They will reenact classic love stories such as; “The Little Wife Runs Away with a Baby” “The Blue-eyed Man Falls for the King,” and “I Married Your Godfather After the Breakup.” Fu Yunshen glanced at the titles of these stories: “Pregnant with the Rich Old Man’s Child” “Married to the Ex’s Father” “The Rich Old Man’s Pampered Cat” He took a deep breath and rejected the idea: “Running away with a baby? No way, you’d better get into Tsinghua or Peking University. For you to become the domineering CEO? No, you should become that yourself. Taking over for the godson? Not interested, let’s work on the in-law relationship.” In the end, he found that the six main characters seemed to be getting more impressive because of his meddling? …. Tips: 1. Main couple, 1v1, not a stock market novel. 2. A happy, sweet, silly story; don’t delve too deeply into the logic. Content tags: Entertainment Industry System Wear Books Shuangwen Easy Other: Pre-collection of “After the Marriage Between Passerby and Rich Boss” A sentence introduction: I, a wealthy old man, what did I do wrong? Idea: live in truth, self-reliance and self-improvement!

My Thoughts on The Rich Old Man Quits
Okay, let's dive into "The Rich Old Man Quits." Honestly, the summary doesn't do it justice. Going in, I expected a fluffy, light-hearted romp, but it's actually a much more layered story with surprising depth. It definitely threw me for a loop, but in a good way for the most part.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked by the comedic setup – a supposed domineering company president, our MC, hilariously misunderstanding his role and desperately trying to escape his "gong" fate. The System adds another layer of humor, providing information and commentary, but is otherwise pretty useless, which I found quite amusing. The early chapters are fast-paced, introducing various love interests from different novels that are merging, and I was eager to see how the MC would navigate these chaotic situations.
What Works Well
The best part about this novel is the overarching plot. It evolves beyond just surviving the merged novel plots and delves into a compelling backstory between the MC and the ML (4th Uncle Xie). This deeper narrative kept me engaged, especially as the side character arcs began to intertwine with the main storyline. The comedic elements are well-placed and provide a welcome contrast to the more serious themes that emerge later on. I also appreciated the cleverness of the MC and how he uses his wits to redirect the "shous" in the various book plots.
Areas of Concern
I did find the pacing of the romance a bit odd. The ML is introduced relatively late, and their relationship progresses quickly, almost too quickly. While their shared past might explain this, it still felt somewhat rushed. Also, the focus on the entertainment industry and the inclusion of netizen comments felt like filler at times, dragging down the plot.

Final Verdict
Despite some minor pacing issues and the occasional reliance on tropes, "The Rich Old Man Quits" is a hidden gem. It cleverly blends comedy, romance, and a surprisingly intricate plot, making it a worthwhile read if you're looking for something beyond the typical transmigration story. I'd recommend giving it a shot if you're in the mood for a novel that keeps you guessing and offers a unique blend of genres.
