"Major General, please have some coffee."

Kelton brought a cup of coffee to Shi Xiongchong and sat down next to him.

"Um."

Shi Yu looked somewhat pale. He took the cup, brought it to his lips, and only took a small sip.

The distance between the office and the mine was far, and the long hours spent consuming a lot of his mental energy left him feeling extremely tired.

He spoke slowly, "Why hasn't Chong arrived yet? Has something happened?"

As he said this, he turned his head to look at Kelton, his tone becoming more forceful.

"Chris is Minister Baru's only nephew, and he has been promoted to the rank of general at such a young age."

If he were to meet with an accident here, you, as the warden, would likely find it difficult to escape responsibility, and the entire mine could even be implicated and perish.

Shi Yu's face showed obvious dissatisfaction.

His words revealed his concern for Chris's safety and his anxiety about the potentially serious consequences.

Kelton's lips twitched down, revealing a helpless, bitter smile.

He let out a long sigh.

"The criminals in the mines are vicious and brutal, and it's common for them to fight each other in private."

Chris is, after all, a worm who committed a serious crime, so we can't be too biased towards him..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shi Yu interrupted him in a deep voice.

"It takes so long to find a single insect. Don't make excuses for your incompetence."

He left with those sarcastic words, got up, and strode out the door.

After taking only a few steps, a strong feeling of dizziness struck, and a strange surge of heat rushed up.

Shi Yu curled his fingers, realizing he had been drugged, and felt a surge of disgust.

He had to withdraw his mental energy to resist the foul medicine in his body.

"Major General, where are you headed?"

Kelton softened his tone and took two steps to catch up.

As if she had rehearsed it countless times, she naturally took the male insect's arm.

"Chris is now a sinner and no longer worthy of you. How dare he occupy your position as a lord?"

Look at me, I'm no less attractive than him, and my back is even more flexible..."

Shi Yu flung his hand away.

His eyes were bloodshot, and the anger between his brows was impossible to suppress.

"What did you put in my coffee? I hate being schemed against. How do you want to die?"

Caught off guard, Kelton lost his balance and fell.

His forehead slammed heavily against the corner of the table, and blood streamed down his face.

He seemed oblivious to the pain and slowly turned his head.

When he made eye contact with the male insect, his heart sank instantly.

There was no pity or guilt in the other person's eyes, only indifference and ruthlessness.

Kelton slowly got up from the ground, staring at the male insect with a half-smile.

"Major General, please don't be so nervous."

His voice held a hint of mockery, "They're just little trinkets to liven things up, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Before he could finish speaking, a shadow suddenly loomed over him, and a strong sense of oppression washed over him.

Immediately afterwards, his chin was gripped tightly by a strong hand, and he was unable to break free.

The scalding hot coffee was poured into his mouth, burning him so badly that he lost all sense of taste, and a burning sensation came from his throat, making him feel extremely bitter.

Kelton didn't even flinch.

It actually opened its mouth wide and swallowed it in big gulps, as if it were tasting the most delicious drink in the world.

Brown coffee stains spilled from the corners of her mouth, her eyes were alluring, revealing an irresistible temptation.

"I'll do anything you like, Major General."

"Shut up."

Shi Yu's expression was cold and stern.

He swung his arm and punched him squarely in the nose.

With a crisp "crack," Kelton's nasal bone broke.

Blood gushed from his nose, instantly staining his face and clothes red.

However, Kelton, who was hit, showed no sign of pain whatsoever.

On the contrary, he looked completely enjoying himself.

His eyes were slightly closed, and the corners of his mouth were turned up, as if the punch brought him great pleasure.

"Ruin me, Major General!"

Upon seeing this, Shi Yu felt a chill run down his spine.

He wiped his hands on Kelton's clothes with disgust, as if they were dirty.

"Hmph, ugly as you are, dreaming. My eyes aren't blind, a 1000-watt light bulb isn't as bright as your head."

Shi Yu said coldly.

His voice was clearly filled with anger.

He didn't even glance at Kelton, turned around and swaggered out of the office.

He even deliberately slammed the door shut, making a loud "bang" sound.

The soldiers outside heard the noise and were about to go in to check, but were driven back by Shi Yu's fierce gaze.

After the male insect left, the soldier pushed open the door and went in.

The scene in the office was laid bare; the warden lay on the ground, his face covered in blood, clearly badly beaten.

He rushed forward to help the warden up.

Filled with righteous indignation, he said, "He's so ungrateful! I'll take the bugs right now, catch him, and give him a good beating."

Kelton sat in his office chair and took a clean white handkerchief out of his pocket.

She slowly unfolded the handkerchief and gently wiped the bloodstains from her cheeks, every movement exuding elegance and nobility.

But his words were colder than frost, revealing a chilling aura.

"No rush, it's been a long time since I've encountered such interesting prey."

The auction will proceed as scheduled in ten days, and I'm going to enjoy the process.

They were manipulated little by little, watched helplessly as they struggled in despair.

Upon hearing Kelton's words, the soldiers standing to the side immediately echoed his obsequious remarks.

"The warden is truly wise and capable; your wisdom and courage are a model for us all!"

Kelton's face was flushed as he ran his fingertips along his neck, down to his collarbone, and down to sort out his needs.

He looked up, panting, and ordered, "Go to Shengshi and catch three male insects."

"Yes."

The soldier responded and hurriedly withdrew.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the mine, Shi Yu was pale and staggering, his body enduring immense pain.

As he moved, the heat in his body rose like a volcanic eruption, as if it would burn him up completely.

Shi Yu clenched his teeth, filled with remorse.

It's all my fault for being too careless and not noticing Kelton's filthy thoughts.

He was now completely powerless and unable to do anything.

He could only endure the physical discomfort and walk step by step toward the mine.

This road seems endless, long and distant.

Shi Yu's forehead was constantly beaded with sweat, and his legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

But he knew he absolutely couldn't stop; he had to get to the mine as soon as possible and get Chris out of this dangerous place.

To keep himself awake, Shi Yu pinched his thigh hard.

The intense pain brought him back to his senses slightly. He took a deep breath and continued walking forward with difficulty.

As they drew closer to the mine entrance, the soldiers guarding the area spotted the male insect and immediately approached.

With a fawning expression, he said, "Major General, your status is too high; this is not a place for you."
