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

"My lord, I feel a little dizzy. Please hold me."

Chris's voice carried a clear hint of jealousy, coupled with his cool yet stubborn expression, making him impossible for the insect to ignore.

His body swayed slightly, as if he had lost his balance, and he lunged straight at the male master.

Shi Yu's face showed visible tension.

My heart leaped into my throat, and I quickly reached out to steady myself.

And just like that, Chris fell precisely into the familiar embrace, pushing aside the insect standing next to the male.

The movements were fluid and natural, as if they had been rehearsed countless times.

He raised his head and glanced defiantly at Fran, who had been pushed to the side, his eyes filled with smugness.

Shi Yu knew nothing about this.

Looking down at Chris in her arms, her face was full of heartache.

He secretly regretted that he had been in such a hurry when he arrived that he had forgotten to tell Adolf to cook some meat porridge.

It's too late to go back and cook now; Chris must have fainted from hunger because he hadn't eaten anything.

Thinking of this, Shi Yu picked Chris up in his arms without saying a word.

He said softly, "Wife, I'll take you to see a doctor right away."

After saying that, he ignored the insects' shouts behind him and hurried towards the doctor's office.

Chris was held in the arms of the male ruler.

Feeling his body temperature and strong heartbeat, the gloom between my brows dissipated somewhat.

His lips unconsciously curled up, revealing a faint smile.

Like a well-behaved pet cat, it brought its head close to Shi Yu's neck and gently rubbed against him.

At that moment, Chris had only one thought in his mind.

The ruler is his, and no one can get close to him!

This intimate gesture made Shi Yu's body tremble violently, and his pace quickened involuntarily.

Such an outstanding woman as Chris is subjected to malicious rumors spread by her ex-fiancé.

His expression was solemn as he slowly spoke: "Be good, forget those troubles. You're not the one who's wrong; you just loved the wrong insect."

"My lord, I do not love him."

Chris explained anxiously, as if afraid that Shi Yu would misunderstand him.

His lips parted, his voice low and urgent, "I've only been enduring this because of the engagement..."

Chris felt a pang of bitterness as he recalled the past.

He was plied with alcohol by Herman's friends, left in the slums, and returned covered in injuries.

At that time, all the insects mocked and ridiculed him, calling him despicable.

Even his female father disliked him for being too stupid, unable to even hold the heart of the male insect.

And now, an insect is earnestly telling him that he is not wrong.

Hearing such words for the first time in his life, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat and his eyes gradually welled up with tears.

The mist in my eyes grew thicker and thicker, as if it might turn into tears and roll down at any moment.

How could he bear to let go of such a good ruler?

Chris silently repeated it to himself.

"Insect God, is your retraction of my bone wings your punishment for my selfishness?"

"Honey, if we can't stand it anymore, I'll back you up and beat him up."

A hint of pity flickered in Shi Yu's eyes.

She leaned down slightly and kissed the corner of Chris's eye, soothing his inner pain.

Chris's pupils trembled slightly, and his heart began to pound violently.

She reached out and wrapped her arms around the male's neck, closed her eyes, and kissed him.

"I know you two are very much in love, but you should also be mindful of the occasion."

Raphael crossed his arms, leaned slightly against the door.

His brows furrowed slightly, his face showing displeasure.

Those heterochromatic eyes stared coldly at the two insects in front of them, as if they were looking at an enemy insect.

That darn Chris, he actually kissed him in front of him on purpose.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and Raphael's displeasure grew stronger.

Shi Yu's cheeks flushed slightly, and he gave an awkward smile.

She gently put Chris down from her arms and put her arm around his lean waist.

I tried to remain calm and keep my voice steady.

"Raphael, do you have any nutrient solution here?"

Raphael curled his lips into a faint smile.

He casually pulled two bottles of nutrient solution from his pocket and tossed them to Shi Yu.

"Take it!"

His tone was somewhat cold.

"Thank you!"

After thanking him, Shi Yu unscrewed the cap of the nutrient solution bottle and handed it to Chris, saying, "Sweetie, have something to eat first, I'll make you something delicious when we get home."

Raphael on the other side was so jealous he could hardly stand it.

The gaze didn't linger on Shi Yu for long, but passed over him and landed directly on Fran behind him.

"Tsk tsk..."

Raphael let out a soft chuckle.

"Is he also prone to incontinence? Tears keep falling, he's practically on par with the guy inside."

"Dr. Raphael, please stop making fun of me. I almost lost my life."

Tatarot scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and hopped out of the room on one foot.

Her eyes were red and swollen, clearly from crying.

He smiled and said, "Shi Yu, long time no see!"

Shi Yu's gaze fell on his legs.

His brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

He asked with concern, "How did you hurt your leg?"

"Hehe... I was ambushed by accident, but the injury on my leg is nothing to worry about."

Tatarot spoke casually, seemingly unconcerned.

He tried to move his right foot, wincing in pain and swaying unsteadily.

He grabbed a nearby insect to steady himself.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Dr. Raphael."

"It's alright?"

Raphael scoffed, showing him no mercy whatsoever, "I wonder who was crying their heart out just now."

Upon seeing this, Fran quickly stepped forward to help Tatarot up.

"Oh dear! Don't be stubborn, look, your eyes are watering from the pain..."

Tatarot blushed and clenched his teeth.

Her mouth was harder than a rock: "I didn't cry, you're the one shedding tears. Look, everyone else is crying."

Fran froze, tears welling up in his eyes, and lowered his head, pursing his lips in silence.

"Tatarot, did you go to Shattered Star too?"

Shi Yu continued to press for answers.

I want to know the reason for the injury to the Tatarot.

More than anything, I wanted to know about the witch clan.

Tataro nodded.

With a wry smile, he replied, "Well, being able to escape with my life from Shattered Star is already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."

The scene kept flashing through his mind, and that terrifying moment still makes his scalp tingle.

He and his brother were surrounded by the rotting corpses of the witch clan, which kept pouring in as if they would never be killed.

"If General Chris hadn't arrived in time, we probably would have become food for those rotting corpses long ago."

Tataro's eyes were unfocused, clearly still shaken by the life-or-death crisis.

A carcass that eats insects?

Shi Yu's expression changed slightly, his mind filled with countless doubts.

Just as I was about to ask for details about the day, a sharp, piercing voice came from behind me.

"Tataro, you're really lucky! You didn't die on Shattered Star."

Upon hearing this, Tataro abruptly raised his head, glared angrily, and responded without showing any weakness.

"If a selfish and self-serving creature like you can live a good life, why should I die?"

His heart was filled with anger and resentment.

Since learning that Cullen deliberately left him and Shi Yu in Death Valley, he has become completely disillusioned with his former friend.

"I shouldn't have come to see you."

Henry's smile froze on his face.

They originally came to visit Tataro, but the words they were about to say turned out differently.
