The Jiang family of humans.

Jiang Xu fiddled with the butterfly jade for a while, then handed it to Jiang Mian: "I have a question."

Jiang Mian glanced at him, finding it strange: "Are you being polite with me?"

"..." Jiang Xu suddenly felt a little awkward. It seemed that spending so much time with the Zerg had some effect: "How can I be polite to you when you say that?"

He leaned forward slightly, clasped his hands together on the table for support, and asked, "Did you ever play with this thing when you traveled to the Zerg before?"

Hmm? This question caught Jiang Mian off guard. It had been so long that he honestly couldn't quite recall whether anything had been done.

"I think I've seen it, but I don't know if I've done anything about it."

Jiang Xu clicked his tongue and sighed. Thinking about it, it made sense. If this was the key to his return, then what was the point of traveling back in time?

Suddenly, Jiang Xu sat up straight: Could it be because some insect over there activated that instrument?

He glanced at the time on the wall and realized that another half hour had passed.

Three hours and twenty-five minutes.

For the first time, he felt that this time was passing exceptionally long and exceptionally agonizing.

Jiang Xu can most likely just wait for them to handle it.

While waiting, he noticed the bloodstains on his shoulder and got up to go to the bedroom to change his clothes.

When I saw the interior decorations, they felt somewhat unfamiliar, as if I hadn't been in my own room for a long time.

I just wonder if the female insect will blame him for breaking his promise once she finds out what happened.

Jiang Xu casually picked out a set of casual clothes from the closet and changed into them. At this time, it was inconvenient for him to go anywhere. What if he suddenly disappeared on the way to somewhere?

"..." Just thinking about it is exciting; I might be mistaken for a monster.

When Jiang Xu returned to his study, he saw Jiang Mian had just hung up the phone: "Who did you call?"

"Who else could it be? You can't go out, so I have to stay here with you. The company's affairs always need to be handled by someone." Jiang Mian leaned back in his chair, leisurely watching him as he continued, "Let Jiang Yi temporarily take over for a while."

"You're really something, managing the company for two days must have exhausted you." Jiang Xu was speechless.

Jiang Mian glanced at him lazily, raised his chin and pointed to the chair opposite him: "Sit down, don't stand in the doorway, you're blocking the light."

"…….." Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu glanced at the huge floor-to-ceiling window and the sunlight streaming into the room.

A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he resignedly sat down in the chair as Jiang Mian had instructed.

"Speaking of which," Jiang Xu paused, leaned back, and raised an eyebrow at Jiang Mian, "I also set up a small company over there."

"?" Jiang Mian: "And then?"

"Aren't female insects considered to have a low social status? I'll make sure they can't distinguish between these different statuses in the future." Jiang Xu curled the corners of his mouth, a faint smile on his face.

"Is there a difference?"

"Your small-scale business only touches on the Jiang family's sphere of influence." Jiang Xu's smile widened further. "What I want is the entire Zerg."

Jiang Mian knew that Jiang Xu had been ambitious since childhood and liked to do things to the extreme. However, some things were not as simple as he thought: "Those royals and nobles will not allow it."

If the interests of those male insects are affected, it could very well lead to another disaster.

Jiang Xu naturally understood this as well, and said calmly, "Ultimate fairness is definitely not feasible. Although the society we live in now advocates equality for all, deeply ingrained concepts cannot be changed in a few decades or centuries."

But what about the future?

The future is infinite, and we can infinitely approach equality.

If we can do it, why can't they?

Perhaps not now, but there has to be someone to lead the way, right?

"..." Jiang Mian tilted his head to look at him. Although the little brat's idea was too idealistic, who could say otherwise?

Without the sacrifices of pioneers, how could we have the peaceful world we have today?

"Keep it up!"

He thought of the Jiang family he had built among the Zerg, which was the best he could do at the time.

Male insects of the insect race are naturally superior to other insects, and it is already very difficult to get them to lower themselves to work. Even so, after decades, the Jiang family only has a dozen or so male insects in their business.

He lured most of these male insects in with bait.

"You don't believe me?" Jiang Xu looked at Jiang Mian's perfunctory expression, his expression darkened, and he unconsciously pursed his lips.

"Let me remind you of something: male insects have an innate ability to control female insects with their mental power. No matter how powerful the female insects are, they still need the guidance of the male insects. Until a substitute for the medicine bottle is developed, all your ideas will be useless."

The only effect it can have is mutual destruction and death.

Jiang Mian got up, walked to Jiang Xu's side, and patted him on the shoulder: "Kid, you've only been in the Zerg for a few months. There are many twists and turns in there, it's not as simple as you think."

Jiang Xu composed himself, knowing that Jiang Mian had spent many years in the Zerg and had seen more than he had.

"However, your idea is correct; things will only get better." Jiang Mian withdrew his hand, walked to the sofa by the window, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and sipped it. "Young man, after saying so much, have you figured out how to get back?"

"..." Jiang Xu turned around in his chair: "Am I still here chatting with you?"

He thought for a moment and said, "Old man, please don't poke that iron block of yours for no reason in the future. I suspect that my return is related to that thing."

"Hmm?" Jiang Mian frowned. "That thing?"

He took the butterfly jade pendant out of his side pocket and held it in his hand: "You mean this?"

"Um."

As soon as Jiang Xu finished speaking, everything in front of him changed instantly. The only difference was that Jiang Mian, who was opposite him, still maintained the same distance from him.

And it hasn't disappeared!

He couldn't help but want to curse.

"…….." Jiang Xu.

"..." Jiang Mian.

The two, grandfather and grandson, looked at each other in bewilderment.

"What is this?" Before Jiang Mian could even ask, a body had already thrown itself into his arms.

He instinctively wanted to avoid it, but when he smelled a familiar scent, his body involuntarily slowed down.

"My Lord." Zoran's voice came into his ear.

Jiang Xu looked at the insects embracing each other. Had he brought the insects back to them?

He turned his head and looked into the room, quickly recognizing it as the Jiang family study. He then looked at the insects next to the instruments in the corner.

Well……..

Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration? Why are they all wiping away tears?

"..." He glanced back at Jiang Mian and Zoran, then pointed to the door at the insects.

The insects walked towards the door in perfect unison, and Jiang Xu quickly left the room as well.

Those insects must have a lot to say.

After closing the door, he turned to look inside the villa and frowned slightly: Could it be that the insect went to the military headquarters again?
