Chapter 2002: Days of Being Spoiled by My Wife in the Insect Tribe 35
Ze Nuoer still had many things he didn't understand; for example, after the main star laboratory's remote monitoring detected the beast egg, they confirmed the gene sequence could treat the virus, but the specifics still had to wait until the beast egg was sent back to the laboratory for detailed research.
Furthermore, the passengers on that tourist spaceship had no idea they were stranded on Lubote star; they merely thought a jump point on another planet had malfunctioned and insisted they had been deliberately framed, because among the passengers were three male insects, and the royal family and military attached great importance to this, already investigating the truth.
And the Third Prince Aisaiya.
Ze Nuoer's consciousness was too dazed at the time in the valley; he thought he was seeing hallucinations on his deathbed and completely failed to notice Aisaiya.
But Anbo said the beast egg was carried out by Aisaiya, whose arms were burned; fortunately, the repair fluid on the spaceship was still sufficient.
Thus Ze Nuoer recalled that rumor again.
When they summoned the female military personnel from that time and asked, they found no one had personally witnessed the elopement; the surveillance only showed Jin Chen and Aisaiya fleeing in a warship, which could not be caught.
Just then, Aisaiya, having finished his treatment, carried a rather simple meal past the meeting room, heading toward the lounge.
Through the door and window, Ze Nuoer's eyes darkened; he opened the door and called out to Aisaiya.
"Third Prince."
Aisaiya jumped at the sound, turned around, and seeing it was Ze Nuoer, he was even more startled.
"Ze Nuoer? You're actually awake!"
"Weren't you injured that badly? How did you recover so quickly?" Aisaiya couldn't help wondering.
"Anbo said you brought back the beast egg; Third Prince, since you're injured, you should rest properly."
Ze Nuoer stood in the hallway, his gaze faintly falling on the tray in Aisaiya's hands.
Aisaiya: "……"
He lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then said, "Alright, I was preparing to bring food to Lord Jin Chen; these days he's been worried about you and hasn't rested or eaten."
"Just leave it to me."
Ze Nuoer took the tray, lifted his eyes to look at him, his voice unexpectedly gentle: "Third Prince, do you know why the male lord brought you into the forest?"
"……uh."
Aisaiya felt annoyed, but facing Ze Nuoer, he was already a little afraid, and now inexplicably felt a bit guilty.
"It was the father emperor who ordered me to follow Lord Jin Chen for training."
"Having a female insect follow a male insect for training—no one would believe that—but when the object is Jin Chen, it feels almost natural."
"I see." Ze Nuoer visibly relaxed, his expression brightening a few degrees as he stared unblinkingly at Aisaiya's back.
Aisaiya's spine stiffened for an instant as he realized who it was.
But as he turned, he saw Jin Chen approaching with a dissatisfied expression, striding straight over and throwing himself into Ze Nuoer's arms.
"Didn't I tell you to keep me company while I sleep?" Jin Chen was very dissatisfied, nibbling at the soft flesh on Ze Nuoer's shoulder.
"I have a few things to handle; may I accompany you back to your room?" Ze Nuoer's hand holding the tray trembled slightly; he instinctively supported Jin Chen's waist and lowered his head to rub his forehead.
"Fine, I'm hungry too."
Jin Chen still remembered wanting to "settle accounts" with Ze Nuoer; he yawned, straightened up, and saw Aisaiya standing blankly to one side, with Anbo behind him looking like he was watching a show.
"Your injury healed?" Jin Chen asked.
Aisaiya quickly nodded, "Yes, Lord Jin Chen, does this count as passing my training?"
Jin Chen: "Ask your father; it's not my concern."
Aisaiya: "……"
How could Lord Jin Chen's attitude toward female insects be so double‑standard?
He glanced furtively at Ze Nuoer, watching them leave.
Anbo suddenly said, "Third Prince, you'd better not think about those random things."
"Who wouldn't like a male lord like Lord Jin Chen? But he said he only has one female consort, Ze Nuoer, so why bother making yourself unhappy?"
"……I know." Aisaiya said, but he still felt disappointed inside.
——
Ze Nuoer once again deeply felt that comforting an angry male lord is truly difficult.
His usually useful antennae and wings took turns on duty, being kneaded until soggy; Ze Nuoer went limp on the bed, lacking strength, which only made Jin Chen a little happier.
Wrapped in mental power, his consciousness hazy, a tingling sensation spread from his mental sea to his limbs; the omnipresent agarwood pheromone, instead of soothing, felt more like a punishment to Ze Nuoer.
Ze Nuoer had never been this exhausted even on the battlefield; red‑purple kiss marks covered his neck and shoulders, and at several moments he even felt his male lord was doing it on purpose.
But seeing Jin Chen's dejected appearance……
Jin Chen's peach‑blossom eyes curved, he stroked his lean, smooth waist without restraint, "I thought you didn't want to comfort me…"
Ze Nuoer: "……"
"I just have no strength left."
Ze Nuoer raised his eyes, leaned in, buried his face in Jin Chen's neck, then nuzzled his lips with a sticky, husky voice that sounded a bit ambiguous.
"Male lord, I want to comfort you."
"Take as you please."
When he was jolted into a daze again, Ze Nuoer couldn't help wondering whether the fragile, cute male lord he first met could really only be a limited‑edition thing……
——
When the First Legion Fleet returned to the main star, Jin Chen and Ze Nuoer went to do something.
What they were supposed to do——"invite" a female insect from Yuermi star——
to replace the role of the protagonist Shouweika in the original plot; the immense beast egg's inherent ability was meant to resolve the virus that had spread to an uncontrollable degree.
Actually it wasn't that uncontrollable; before leaving the main star, Jin Chen spent a little time using the star‑net to continually post about the virus, and with Ling Gun Gun's encrypted firewall, the posts only grew, undeletable by anyone.
Thus, the virus's spread didn't surge wildly as in the original plot, but it was still shocking enough.
Unfortunately, they failed to complete this task.
"According to detection, the jump point on Yuermi star was destroyed, but the military received no distress call."
Ze Nuo Er's tone was not good; for such a big matter, the residents of Yu Er Mi Xing could not possibly be unaware, unless they were all in collusion to conceal it together.
Their warships cannot land; they can only enter Yu Er Mi Xing through the phase jump point of the main star, and they will surely startle the enemy.
"Could it be Wei Ka who did this?" Jin Chen couldn't help but be surprised for a moment, "He's actually quite strong."
To actually be able to control the entirety of Yu Er Mi Xing, it's no wonder they are a mysterious main character shou with deep schemes.
Jin Chen had already told Ze Nuo Er the secret of the beast egg, so he wouldn't be jealous over this anymore, but hearing the Male Lord praise another female insect still left him feeling a bit stifled.
"Once we return to the main star, I will report this and have Wei Ka forcibly isolated," Ze Nuo Er said.
【Hey there, Main God is really smart~ Too bad the situation on the main star has undergone a big change.】
Ling Gun Gun lay on Jin Chen's head, shaking its head and swaying.
Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, and only after fully returning to the main star did he understand the meaning of the Zero Egg.
Huo Bo Te fell into a coma before his third differentiation, his mental power surging wildly within him, and he could only accept Wei Ka's approach.
Whether it was the royal family, the nobility, or the Male Insect Protection Association, they all placed great importance on Huo Bo Te, after all, a male insect's mental power differentiation is no trivial matter, let alone the fact that he was about to differentiate into an S‑rank noble male insect.
Besides this, Wei Ka's special ability to suppress the virus's growth rate was also discovered, with buffs stacking up, Wei Ka was placed under protection and suddenly became an honored guest of the royal family.
