Qiu Lingxi transmigrated into the notorious number-one playboy of the Imperial Capital.
At his coming-of-age ceremony, the royal family handed him his late parents' belongings. His father and mother had been legendary war gods.
[A failing entertainment company x1]
[A rusty mecha with a frame ready to fall apart x1]
The interstellar nobility were certain that this prodigal son, who had only recently been found, would eventually squander the entire fortune left by the war gods!
People from all sides rubbed their hands together, waiting for Qiu Lingxi to rack up billions in debt and be forced to auction off the war gods' private mecha to pay it off.
But who could have guessed that the playboy would suddenly start getting lucky?
The taciturn boy he saved by chance had a voice like heavenly music.
Lushu: "You're too kind."
The mukbang streamer he signed on a whim had a mouth big enough to fit a whole three-bedroom apartment.
Taotie: "You're underselling it."
And the adorable little spotted piglet he picked up went viral on the Star Network, gathering countless fans.
Dang Kang: "You're too kind!"
The playboy's business was thriving, and the interstellar nobles said, "What other surprises are you hiding from us, kid?!"
As it turned out, Qiu Lingxi really did have one more surprise.
Because his constitution was weak and he couldn't take a hit, Qiu Lingxi loved nothing more than his mecha bodyguards, except for his best friend Bai Youchen, who made him feel safest of all!
He was a treasure he'd found at the mecha market: a humanoid weapon, capable of taking on ten thousand enemies!
He loved spending time with Bai Youchen.

Later, space pirates invaded.
Qiu Lingxi's entertainment company made a huge contribution!
At the awards ceremony, the taciturn singer dismantled a mecha with his bare hands, the mukbang streamer swallowed a space pirate whole, the cute little pet snapped particle guns in two, and the gentle actress transformed into a martial arts master on the spot...
And the battered, rusty mecha had somehow been repaired until it looked brand-new. Nobody knew who was piloting it.
It stood protectively beside Qiu Lingxi, letting no one come near.
Like a war god returned to life.
In the middle of the chaos, Qiu Lingxi proudly introduced his best friend to everyone: "This is Bai Youchen, my best friend. Handsome, right?"
The interstellar nobles, fleeing with their heads in their hands: "Yikes."
Don't try to fool us. Who stands this close to a friend?
