A top-tier gigolo, teased by a cool and aloof general, turns warm.

Shi Yu never expected his second life to be a stroke of fortune. Once an ordinary laborer on Blue Star, he transmigrates into the chromatic world of the interstellar Zerg—not as a disposable drone, but as a rare and pampered male. At just twenty, his future is sealed with a contract to none other than General Chris, the Empire's youngest and most formidable military asset. In her presence, Shi Yu's days become a blissful haze of luxury, his only duty to enjoy the lavish lifestyle his powerful partner provides. That peace shatters when Chris returns from the front lines, her magnificent iridescent ceramite wings shattered beyond repair. Forced into early retirement, the general is stripped of her command and her wealth. The opulent life Shi Yu had grown accustomed to vanishes overnight, replaced by mounting debts and the chilling reality of their sudden poverty. Gone are the banquets and silk sheets; in their place is a stark, empty apartment and a mountain of bills. With Chris confined to their home, her pride wounded as deeply as her body, Shi Yu faces a humbling choice: return to the life of a laborer he thought he had escaped forever. Stepping out into the cold, unforgiving capital, he must navigate a world that values a male Zerg only for breeding, not for his work ethic. Determined to shoulder the burden for his fallen general, he takes on any job he can find, discovering that protecting a queen no longer requires a sword—it requires a man willing to get his hands dirty.
