currently, i am living in china with my wife (who is a chinese national)on an l visa

Question

Currently, I am living in China with my wife (who is a Chinese National)on an L visa (90 days with multiple entries). My wife would like for me to live with her in China for a year or two before leaving to the USA.Is there a way for me to get a Chinese Temporary Residence Permit without a job? I do plan on working in China in the near future, but not at the moment.I would also like to know what other options do I have besides going to Hong Kong and re-entering China to renew my Visa before my 90 days are up. I would prefer not to have to go to Hong Kong and looking for something within China as an option.Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

as far as I know, only foreigner holding China work visa or Student visa can apply for a Temporary Risidence Permit in China.
