Lin Xi, an employee of the transmigrate into a book bureau, made a mistake while entering a retirement world. He ended up in a remote star zone on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital and became a low-ranking cleaner at a powerless, insignificant pollution cleanup station.
Lin Xi barely registered at the station. No one paid him any attention.
Then one day, a rumor somehow spread throughout the entire station.
It was said that Lin Xi had an extraordinary background. He had grown up with the young master of the Nan family in the Imperial Capital, and they were engaged. But he had run away from the wedding, and sooner or later, the Nan family would come to take him back.
The invisible Lin Xi began attracting attention. Since he was supposedly the fiancée of the Nan family's young master, people started giving him handouts, hoping that once the Nan family took him back, he would remember those who had helped him.
He accepted every handout without hesitation. After all, he had a little beggar to feed at home. Pride would only leave them starving.
The little beggar took the food. Seeing "Gift from XX" printed on the bag, he tore it open and took a bite without expression. "You're deceiving them like this. Aren't you afraid they'll find out sooner or later?"
Lin Xi didn't care that the little beggar might expose the engagement rumor he'd spread himself.
Chewing on his bread, he said, "Before I brought you home, I only had myself to feed."
The little beggar, Nan Qingye, chewed his bread and thought that made sense. He abandoned the idea of breaking Lin Xi's neck and decided, for now, to let it slide that Lin Xi was using his name to get along splendidly.
2. Nan Qingye watched Lin Xi doing laundry with a sinister look. He didn't believe Lin Xi had no idea who he was. He was going to see what kind of tricks this man could pull.
Nan Qingye kept waiting for Lin Xi to reveal his greedy nature. But even after the Nan family found him and brought him home, Lin Xi never asked him for a fortune. In fact, once he returned home, Lin Xi disappeared without a trace.
Nan Qingye had planned to humiliate Lin Xi when he made an outrageous demand. Instead, he started to panic.
He used every resource at his disposal and finally found Lin Xi in an obscure star zone, fishing by a lake with a little beggar he'd picked up from who-knows-where.
Seeing Lin Xi care for the little beggar just as he'd once cared for him, Nan Qingye went mad with jealousy. He stopped Lin Xi and demanded, "Wasn't picking me up enough? Just how many people are you going to bring home?"
