Gu Zhiqi: Even transmigration can't stop me from retiring! However, transmigration couldn't, but poverty could. Master Zhi was forced into business! ... #Breaking! Gu Family's fake heiress, Gu Zhiqi, kicked out and now swindling money as a fortuneteller under a bridge# The protagonists' group style started to go awry. Eldest Brother Gu: Need money? Take this neighborhood. Second Brother Gu: Second bro gives you an entertainment company. Third Sister Gu: Just made a billion, keep it safe. Fourth Brother Gu: Young master's championship prize money, take it. Money-loving heroine: Need money? Pick any color card you like. Biological brother: Come back to inherit the family fortune.

Everyone in the Gu Family is a top player in their fields, except the fake heiress who's nothing but a pretty face# And then, the big shots started calling one after another. First Big Shot: Our alliance's ancestral site doesn't have better feng shui than under a bridge? Master Gu, reconsider? Second Big Shot: Need money? Think about that last order. Third Big Shot: Have time for fortune-telling, but no time to write papers? Fourth Big Shot: Miss Gu, I have a surgery here, what do you think... ... Gu Zhiqi: Read, retiring, do not disturb. A certain movie star: You just used my account. Gu Zhiqi, who had swindled enough money to retire, "..." ?!

This is quite frankly one of the best stories I've had the pleasure of reading. The first chapter itself gives a really interesting MC who is then complimented by some other great characters, all combining to form a very character-driven format. And I say format because the story itself is not character-driven, it's very plot-driven but it is written in a character-driven way. And this surprisingly works. SUPER EXCITED FOR MORE!!!

Updating Review: The action aspect of the plot is spotty (not because of bad writing, Star, the MC, just doesn't get many times to shine on the battlefield). Star is adorable, even if a brat at times. Most of the actual conflict in the story is actually driven by his character, making this story more character driven than plot driven. So don't go in, expecting a big fantastical sci-fi or fantasy. It's more grounded than that.

Add some points to cyberpunk and become the godfather

The sky was densely packed with airships, and the Dreadful Mobile Squad descended from the sky, bringing up smoke and dust. Harry looked around. There was no one around him except for broken limbs and flesh. From the huge Umbrella company to being alone now, he was already prepared to face death. The moment the members of the Trepidation Mobile Squad raised their guns and aimed, a calm voice sounded in everyone's ears. "I'm sorry, everyone. I still owe this gentleman a favor. Let's end today's performance here." What followed was the loud roar of the fist wind, which drowned out the roar of the airship. The sound of the firing of the Dreadful Mobile Squad was like the might of the heavens. "What did I tell you, Harry, you can always trust me?"
