   Chi Gui said softly, "Wu Cunxiao, Zhang Ti, Yang Zhong, Chen Xin!" Four young men immediately stepped forward, saluted in unison, and said, "Chief!" All four were team leaders. Their names sounded like their real names, but they were actually code names. These code names were personally given to them by Chi Gui. Their surnames were their own. Their given names, however, were derived from the Eight Virtues: filial piety, brotherly love, loyalty, trustworthiness; propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame. It seems that people tend to flaunt what they lack most.

The male lead, Jiang Chen, was a top star in the entertainment industry in his previous life, but he died from overwork. After transmigrating, he immediately lays down – and has a whirlwind marriage with national goddess Su Luowei, beginning a three-year life of living off her. Every day he sunbathes, drinks afternoon tea, receives a monthly allowance, and has a "soft rice system" to bless him. After ten years of lying around, he can get a 300 billion reward. This life is too good to be true! He thought he could play it cool forever, until Su Luowei accidentally found his hidden lyrics manuscript during a live stream. "The evening breeze blows the white hair at your temples, smoothing the scars left by memories," one line of lyrics exploded in the live stream! Faced with his wife's probing questions, the guilty Jiang Chen was forced to perform, and his song "The Moon Caused the Trouble" once again ignited the entire internet, but he still stubbornly claimed, "I really have run out of ideas." On one hand, he's hiding a box full of divine manuscripts, living a life of leisure; on the other hand, his wife's various "sabotages" force him to achieve god-like status—this contrast is so adorable it's impossible not to laugh!
