Zerg: Cold and aloof Major General, stop pretending to be innocent, I have a headache!

After more than ten years apart, when they met again, his only thought was that the child had been raised in a way that was not ideal.

Because of this, he and Jiang Xu gradually became acquainted.

However, once he got to know him, Zoe began to regret it, fearing that Jiang Xu would be led astray by him.

That's how that ridiculous bet came about.

Bernd turned his head away in displeasure: "Tch."

"What kind of tone is that?" Zoe showed him no mercy and smacked him on the head.

Kids just need to be educated.

"How will your bet proceed?" Zoe asked directly.

Jiang Xu leaned back on the sofa, tilting his head to look at the arena in the middle, remaining silent.

"......." Zoe wondered why he had become so quiet as a child.

In a daze, I recalled the time when we first met as children. Mingming, with her sweet and innocent voice, liked to call me "brother, brother" all the time.

"Stop being so serious, are you sure you want to make this bet?" Zoe's tone was noticeably more serious.

Although females have a low status among the Zerg, such things are not surprising.

However, Jiang Xu had never done such a thing before, perhaps because it was related to the Jiang family's upbringing.

Thinking of this, he punched Bernd again, as if he couldn't contain his anger.

"What?" Bernd's face was clearly not good. He had only been here for a short time and had already been slapped twice. Who in the Zerg would dare to do that?

"I don't like the look of you." Zoe glanced at him sideways, then turned to look at Jiang Xu, waiting for his reply.

The gaze was so intense that Jiang Xu couldn't ignore it at all. He gestured with his chin toward Bernd beside him and said, "Ask him."

Zoe looked at Bernd with a puzzled expression. What good things could he possibly say?

Bernd lazily closed his eyes, picked up the fruit wine in front of him, took a slow sip, whetting Zoe's appetite before saying, "The bet is postponed."

"..." Zoe remained silent, and the result was still the same.

He looked at Jiang Xu: "What were you thinking? You dare to gamble on something like this?"

If he remembered correctly, this matter was decided by the Jiang family.

Although he didn't know why he had to marry that female insect, since it was a decision made by the higher-ups, they would never let Jiang Xu do it.

Jiang Xu shrugged. "Don't ask. Even if you did, he wouldn't know."

Suddenly, the surrounding insects cheered, and in the center of the arena, a female insect was pinned to the ground by another female insect.

The fallen female insect struggled a few times, but had no strength left to turn over.

Amidst the cheers and applause, a male insect stood up not far from Jiang Xu and his companions.

Yes, cute.

This was Jiang Xu's first impression. The other person was not tall, much shorter than the three insects at their table.

It gives me the feeling that I'm still a minor.

Just as Jiang Xu was wondering why he stood up, the other party had already stepped onto the stage.

He walked over to the female insect lying motionless on the ground and kicked her head with the tip of his shoe in disgust: "Julian, get up, now."

Otherwise, you'll be in for a world of hurt when you get home tonight.

The female insect lying on the ground coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, and the scene became even more chaotic.

This was the first time Jiang Xu had ever seen an angel and a demon gathered on a single insect. What kind of society could produce such an insect?

At this moment, another male insect also entered the arena. Without a doubt, he knew that he belonged to the other female insect.

"Lord Aesop, the bug under your feet is mine tonight, and you can't take it back." Xia An curled the corners of her lips: "Don't kick it too hard, I just like that face."

Jiang Xu's eyebrows were already furrowed. He had seen bloody things before, but something this horrific was truly rare.

For some reason, I feel sorry for these female insects.

Jiang Xu stood up, no longer watching the argument on the stage, and walked out of the clubhouse.

He originally came to inquire about the betting agreement, but now that everything is settled, he should go back.

Zoe didn't like this kind of occasion either. This place was originally chosen by Bernd, and now that Jiang Xu had left, he naturally had to follow suit.

After leaving the club, Jiang Xu suddenly faced a dilemma: how should he get back?

"What are you doing here?" Zoe saw Jiang Xu standing at the door, deep in thought, as soon as she stepped outside. He looked around but didn't see his flying vehicle. "Is your queen here to pick you up?"

"No." Jiang Xu wanted Fei to pick him up, but unfortunately, he just checked his communicator and couldn't find the insect's contact information.

He turned to Zoe, considering their relationship: "You'll take me."

"Sure," Zoe readily agreed.

Just after the two insects boarded the aircraft, Bernd also came out.

"You two are leaving already?" Bernd looked at them with displeasure. "Nightfall is the perfect time for fun, why go back so early?"

"Go play by yourself, nobody's stopping you." Zoe closed the aircraft's hatch, leaving Bernd far behind with her taillights.

"What a hypocrite." Bernd rolled his eyes in the direction the two insects had left, then boarded his own aircraft.

On his way back, Jiang Xu noticed that Zoe seemed to want to say something to him several times, but ultimately didn't speak.

The cabin was quiet all the way home.

No one broke the silence.

Back in front of the familiar house, Jiang Xu disembarked from the aircraft and said to Zoe inside, "Thanks."

As she turned to go back to her room, Zoe spoke up: "Don't spend too much time alone with Bernd in the future. If you insist on hanging out together, remember to invite me."

Jiang Xu raised an eyebrow, looking at Zoe to try and find out her purpose, and could only conclude that she seemed to genuinely care about him.

"Understood." Jiang Xu turned around, waved, and left.

The original owner of this body did have a friend who was truly devoted to him.

When Jiang Xu opened the door, Fei was already home.

"My lord." Fei hurriedly stepped forward and found a pair of comfortable slippers for Jiang Xu, placing them in front of him.

Jiang Xu glanced at the nutritional supplements on the table: "Eating? Is there any for me?"
