So, I'm going to be a live-in son-in-law?

"Fine, since you insist on believing my spaceship is broken, let's just go with your theory," Luo Tian said with a smile.

Jaco was slightly taken aback.

How did he know what I was thinking?

Right, it must be a coincidence.

"Forget it, forget it. Seeing how anxious you are, I'll take you home to look for that energy source you mentioned," Tights sighed.

"You guys chat; I should be taking my leave," Luo Tian said, waving his hand.

With that, Luo Tian turned to depart.

"Wait a second." Tights hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Luo Tian's hand.

"Is there something else?" Luo Tian asked.

"Luo Tian, I said I wanted to properly repay you. Won't you come home with me?" Tights offered an invitation.

"You aren't actually planning to offer yourself as a reward, are you?" Luo Tian asked.

Tights wiped sweat from her brow.

"What? Tights, are you going to marry him?" Jaco was also full of excitement. "That's great! I love attending weddings; I can eat delicious food at the banquet."

Tights: "..."

What kind of logic is that?

Just for the sake of food?

"Ahem... you two misunderstood... I just want to simply repay Luo Tian..." Tights hurriedly explained.

"Oh, you scared me. I really thought you were going to offer yourself," Luo Tian laughed.

Tights wiped sweat from her brow.

Luo Tian, you always know how to kill a conversation.

"Well then, let's go," Tights said, casually pulling out a Capsule and tossing it.

"Bang!"

The Capsule transformed into a jet helicopter.

Jaco immediately rushed over, patted the helicopter, and began to study it silently.

"Hey, don't get any ideas about my helicopter. I'm sure my home has the energy source you mentioned, so don't worry," Tights said, annoyed.

"I'm not getting any ideas about your helicopter; I just think this model is too outdated," Jaco chuckled, making an excuse.

"Whatever you say... don't you know how to fly? This helicopter only seats two, so you'd better keep up," Tights said, pulling Luo Tian's hand as she stepped onto the helicopter.

The helicopter started up.

Jaco: "..."

"Hey, you guys aren't serious, are you? You're really going to leave me behind?" Jaco expressed his innocence.

I'm the one you met first.

And you, are you just going to ignore my existence the moment you see a handsome guy?

"Whoosh!"

Tights ignored Jaco, maneuvering the jet helicopter to carve a white trail through the air as it sped toward West City.

Jaco ignited the light-flames under his feet and took off, following close behind.

Soon, Tights landed with Luo Tian at the Capsule Corporation headquarters.

"Hey, Tights, isn't this the Capsule Corporation on Earth? Rumor has it that Capsule Corporation is the richest company on the planet! Why are you landing the helicopter here?" Jaco exclaimed from behind.

"Dummy, this is my home!" Tights smiled mysteriously.

Jaco stood frozen.

Your home?

"Hehe, didn't expect that, did you? Actually, I'm the young lady of a wealthy family," Tights said with a smile.

Jaco: "..."

Jaco was truly speechless.

You're the young lady of a wealthy family, yet you insist on playing the part of a struggling writer.

"I'm an adult now, and I don't want to rely on my family's wealth to sustain my life anymore," Tights said earnestly. "Even though we have enough money to last for generations."

"Fine, the way rich people think is truly strange," Jaco shook his head.

"But after spending this time out on my own, I've come to realize... while I do want to be self-reliant, I think it's fine to use the family money if it's there. It's not like we'll ever run out anyway," Tights said with a smile.

"It's good that you've figured it out," Jaco nodded.

Luo Tian didn't speak, his expression remaining quite calm.

"How about it? Is Luo Tian scared silly?" Tights giggled.

Seeing that Luo Tian remained silent, Tights naively assumed he was intimidated.

After all, a seemingly ordinary pretty girl had suddenly transformed into the eldest daughter of the world's richest man.

Who could have expected that?

The gap in status was truly massive.

"So... I'm going to be a live-in son-in-law, then." Luo Tian mused.

Tights: "..."

Jaco: "..."

This kid really knows how to keep a conversation going.

"Oh my, Tights is back?"

At that moment, Dr. Brief rode up on his bicycle, adjusted his glasses, and looked at Tights with a face full of affection.

"Dad, this is the Galactic Patrolman Jaco. They say he came to Earth from the distant galaxy. He's asking if we have a special type of energy source. Do you have any, Dad?" Tights said to her father, gesturing toward Luo Tian and Jaco.

"What? That's truly remarkable, coming from the distant galaxy..." Dr. Brief walked over to stand opposite Luo Tian, adjusting his glasses as he silently scrutinized him. "So you're an alien? It's strange, you don't seem to look much different from an Earthling. The silver-white hair is a bit unique, sure, but it's not unheard of among Earthlings."

Luo Tian: "..."

Jaco: "..."

Tights: "..."

"Dad, this is the Galactic Patrolman!" Tights said with a darkened expression.

"Oh... it's you. You really do look different from an Earthling. Is that a mask you're wearing on your face?" Dr. Brief asked curiously.

"This isn't a mask; my face just looks like this naturally." Jaco wiped away sweat.

"This outfit looks quite chic as well. What kind of material is it made of?" Dr. Brief asked again.

"The top is standard issue for the Galactic Patrol," Jaco replied.

"And the pants..." Dr. Brief reached out to test the fabric of Jaco's pants, sighing in wonder. "The material of these pants is excellent. It's completely fused to your skin, isn't it? Could it be some kind of integrated material?"

"I'm sorry... I'm not wearing pants." Jaco wiped sweat again.

Dr. Brief: "..."

Tights: "..."

"Don't look at me like that! Our biological structures are different to begin with; there's nothing to be so surprised about just because I'm not wearing pants," Jaco shouted.

"Actually, it's nothing." Luo Tian nodded, unfazed.

"It's good that Luo Tian is so worldly." Jaco gave Luo Tian a grateful look.

"Think of it like the pets we keep—like the cats, dogs, or even the little dinosaurs over there. They don't wear clothes either, do they?" Luo Tian smiled.

"I am not a pet! I am the most powerful human on my planet!" Jaco shouted indignantly.

"Mm-hmm." Luo Tian nodded.

Jaco felt like he was about to cry.

Your indifferent attitude makes it impossible for me to even respond.

"And who is this..." Dr. Brief looked toward Luo Tian again.

"Dad, his name is Luo Tian. When I was in danger, he stepped up to save me. He is my savior," Tights said quickly.

"So, are you planning to repay him by offering your hand in marriage?" Dr. Brief asked.

"Dad! Can you please have a normal conversation?" Tights blushed.

"Ahem... back to business. What kind of material did you say you needed?" Dr. Brief turned to look at Jaco.

"It is..." Jaco then listed the energy source required for his spaceship.

"I should have some. Come with me and take a look; the name might be different," Dr. Brief said, beckoning to Jaco.

"Alright, thank you, Doctor," Jaco thanked him.

"Tights, why don't you take your boyfriend around for a bit?" Dr. Brief said. "I'll take Jaco to see if we have the energy he needs."

"Dad, he's not my boyfriend! We haven't defined our relationship yet!" Tights shouted coquettishly.

Dr. Brief didn't say anything more and led Jaco away to find the energy source.

"I'm really sorry, Luo Tian. My dad just loves making those kinds of boring jokes," Tights said, blushing.

"I think he's quite humorous," Luo Tian smiled.

"Let's go, I'll take you around," Tights offered.

"Alright, sorry for the trouble," Luo Tian nodded.

Tights froze for a moment.

You are finally capable of having a proper conversation.

"That over there is our family's courtyard..." Tights pointed toward an infinitely spacious yard ahead, introducing it to Luo Tian.

As they were speaking, a little girl walked over at a leisurely pace.

The little girl looked to be about five years old, wearing her hair in a blue ponytail.

In the little girl's hand was a toy gun.

Luo Tian took a closer look, and realized, how could that be a toy gun?

It was clearly a powerful laser pistol.

Luo Tian was all too familiar with this little girl.

The little girl was none other than the heroine of the Dragon Ball world, Bulma.

"Big sister, you're back?" Bulma asked, looking up at Tights.

"Luo Tian, this is my little sister, Bulma," Tights introduced.

"Who is he? Is he big sister's boyfriend?" Bulma scrutinized Luo Tian with curiosity.

Tights's face turned black in an instant.

What on earth is this little girl thinking about all day long?

You're only five years old!

How do you even know what a boyfriend is?

It must be because you're always scrolling through TikTok in your spare time, making you so precocious.

"Just a regular friend! Don't talk nonsense, Bulma," Tights scolded.

"Is that so? This is the first time I've ever seen big sister bring a boy home," Bulma retorted with conviction, her youthful face showing a hint of maturity.

Tights: "..."

There is no way to talk to her anymore.
