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

The sound of footsteps echoed in the banquet hall, and all the insects looked toward the source of the sound.

On the stairs, a tall, handsome male insect with a cool and aloof demeanor was slowly descending. Not far behind him followed the three insects from the Jiang family.

The insects had different expressions, their eyes fixed on the unfamiliar young male insect, secretly wondering: what kind of family background could make the Jiang family's insects willing to follow him?

Jiang Xu stepped down the last step, glanced at the few insects in the center of the hall, and walked steadily to Fei's side, asking, "How are you?"

Fei gently shook her head: "It's nothing."

"Who are you?" Jiang Baiyou stared at Jiang Xu, feeling that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

But I can't remember it right now.

He turned to look at Jiang Bian, who was walking towards him, his brows furrowing slightly, wondering: Could it be that these insects really came with Grandfather Jiang?

Soon, the three insects that came over solved his doubts.

Jiang Jin walked to Jiang Xu's side and raised her hand to the female guards around her. The female guards immediately retreated to their guard positions.

He glanced around at the insects present, put his hand on Jiang Xu's shoulder, and with a smug look on his face, introduced him to everyone:

"Today is truly a day of double joy! Let me formally introduce you all—Jiang Xu, the male insect offspring of our Jiang family."

Although he had only met them once, it did not affect his opinion that his insect offspring was exceptionally outstanding.

As for what makes it excellent?

Who cares? As long as it's our own insect, it's naturally the best.

Whispers instantly filled the room, but Jiang Jin listened quietly, her smile still on her face.

"Great-grandfather Jiang, you said he's a male member of the Jiang family?" Jiang Baiyou looked at Jiang Bian beside him, his tone somewhat puzzled. "Great-grandfather never even got married, so where would he get any descendants?"

Jiang Jin glanced at him and retorted, "Who said he's from your great-grandfather's branch?"

"Otherwise, we could..." Jiang Baiyou stopped mid-sentence, his gaze suddenly fixed on Jiang Xu.

He finally understood why Jiang Xu looked familiar, and tentatively asked, "Is he from Mian's grandfather's branch?"

This question may seem like a doubt, but in his heart he was already almost certain of it.

"Yes." Before withdrawing her hand, Jiang Jin gently patted Jiang Xu's shoulder and said to Jiang Xu, "Let me introduce you. This is your cousin, Jiang Baiyou, from your great-grandfather's branch of the family."

Jiang Xu glanced up at Jiang Baiyou and uttered two words: "Hello."

Jiang Baiyou's expression changed rapidly, but he quickly put on a friendly smile and said to Jiang Xu:

"Oh, it's my cousin! I didn't prepare a gift for our first meeting."

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suggested, "How about this, after the banquet we go out for a get-together, and I'll make up for the gift later, okay?"

"..." Jiang Xu looked at him quietly.

I silently gave myself the verdict: The acting is really not good.

"No need," Jiang Xu said calmly. "I'm here today to pay my respects to my two great-grandfathers and to take a look at the place where my grandfather grew up. I'll be leaving soon."

Jiang Baiyou paused for a moment, but his smile didn't disappear. He then persuaded, "Then we young bugs will have a small gathering later. Why don't you come along?"

It was in the small gathering room behind the Jiang family's house.

Seeing that the other party was about to refuse again, he continued, "If my cousin refuses again, then he's not giving his older cousin any face."

Who cares about you!

Jiang Xu was about to refuse when Jiang Bian's voice suddenly came from behind him: "You can go and take a look."

The refusal that was on the tip of his tongue was swallowed back by Jiang Xu.

He turned to look at Jiang Bian, only to see the other man nod slightly at him.

Jiang Xu withdrew his gaze, turned to look at Jiang Baiyou, and slowly replied, "Okay."

He was now quite curious about what was in the small banquet hall, and Jiang Bian told him to go and see.

Could it be?

Another masterpiece by Jiang Mian?

Just as he was thinking this, Jiang Xu was suddenly patted on the shoulder by an insect a few times.

He turned his head and saw Jiang Jin looking at the insects beside him, then asked, "Are these your friends?"

"Great-grandfather." Fei immediately bowed respectfully to Jiang Jin.

At that very moment, the little insect hidden under Fei's collar finally emerged.

He craned his neck to look at Jiang Xu first, then flapped his wings and flew over, landing steadily on Jiang Xu's head.

"Ah~"

The little insect waved its tiny claws at Jiang Jin, its eyes full of curiosity, making it look exceptionally endearing.

Seeing Jiang Jin's momentarily stunned expression, Jiang Xu suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Great-grandfather, I forgot to introduce you."

This is my, um... family member.

In fact, he is still not quite sure how to introduce Fei to the other insects.

Saying "wife" or "insect" just feels a bit off; "family member" is much more natural to say.

He raised his hand and gently patted the little bug on his head, adding, "This is my little one, his name is Jiang Yi."

"You're married?" Jiang Jin's eyes widened instantly, staring at Jiang Xu in surprise.

Clearly, they hadn't expected that this newly recognized junior would start a family at such a young age.

"Yes, we've only been married for a few months."

As Jiang Xu spoke, he reached out and pulled Fei, who had been left standing there, to his side, gently ruffling his hair, and said to Jiang Jin, "You can just call him Xiao Fei."

Jiang Jin then looked at Fei seriously, recalling Fei's earlier use of "great-grandfather," which didn't seem presumptuous.

He turned to Jiang Bian beside him and sighed inwardly: It's truly a case of some people dying of thirst while others are drowning in floods!

Some insects are still unmarried, while others have already had four generations living together.

He looked up at Jiang Yi and softened his tone, saying, "Little brat, come down and let your great-grandfather hold you."

Jiang Yi tilted his little head and glanced at his female parent beside him. After receiving a nod of approval, he flapped his wings and slowly flew towards Jiang Jin.

"Great Ancestor," the little guy called out in a soft, sweet voice.

Jiang Jin was visibly much happier. He turned to the female insect beside him, his voice filled with joy, and said, "Helan, look! Our little insect cubs!"

"By the way, great-grandfather," Jiang Xu suddenly said.

Jiang Jin, who was about to turn around to call Helan, paused and looked at him in confusion.

Jiang Xu pointed to Jiang Ping not far away and introduced him, "This is Jiang Ping, who grew up with Grandfather Xiong since he was a child."

Then, he turned to Shuya, who was standing to the side, and said, "This is General Shuya of the Eastern Zerg."

Jiang Jin nodded slightly to Shu Ya, and Shu Ya immediately returned the gesture respectfully.

Then, Jiang Jin's gaze fell on Jiang Ping and she looked him up and down. Was his surname Jiang?

After a moment, she spoke, asking, "Did Xiaobao give you your name?"

Jiang Ping was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of doubt.

Xiao Bao? Who's that?

When Jiang Xu first heard the nickname "Xiao Bao," his reaction was exactly the same as Jiang Ping's at this moment.

With a smile in his eyes, he whispered, "Grandfather Xiong."

Jiang Ping's eyes instantly filled with astonishment. Uncle Mian has such a... name?

His surprise quickly turned into a smile.

He bowed respectfully to Jiang Jin and Helan: "Your Excellency Jiang Jin, Mr. Helan, I have often heard Uncle Mian mention you two before, and today I finally have the opportunity to meet you both."

His voice trembled slightly.

Laughing—
