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

"The female father is bad, he's lying." Jiang Yi hugged Jiang Xu's neck tightly with both hands, pouting and breathing heavily through his nose as he snorted, "He clearly likes the male father, but he won't admit it."

"Where do I deny it?" Fei's temples were throbbing with tension. He looked sternly at the little insect and said, "If you don't behave, you won't be allowed to sleep with your father."

"No, no!" Jiang Yi grabbed his collar, crumpling it into a ball. He pressed his face against the neck in front of him and rubbed it hard. "I want to sleep with Xiong Fu, hmph."

Fei's gaze was no longer gentle. He glanced coldly at the insect cub and commanded in an icy and unapproachable manner, "Get down."

Jiang Yi froze for a moment, the icy chill making his face look aggrieved. He pouted and burst into tears, "Wah! Father is so naughty! I want Father! Waaah!"

The male father hadn't hugged or talked to him in a long time. Today, he finally got home, but the female father wouldn't let him sleep with the male father.

The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and the louder she cried.

"My father is so naughty~ Waaah~~"

Tears streamed down his cheeks and into Jiang Xu's collar, burning his heart with pain.

He frowned, reached out and picked up the baby insect, wiped away its endless tears, sighed, and said gently, "My female father and I will sleep with you tonight, okay?"

"Waaah?" The crying stopped abruptly. The insect's eyes, which had been slits from crying, snapped open instantly. Tears still clung to its face as it looked at Jiang Xu with teary eyes and asked, "Really?"

"Really." Jiang Xu patted the insect's head. "But you have to apologize to your female father."

"But..." Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Xu with a wronged expression, then glanced at Fei, who had a furrowed brow.

But the female father lied, didn't he?

Jiang Xu rubbed his face with his hand: "The female father loves the male father very much, and your male father also loves your female father very much."

This is the truth.

It's just that it wasn't him.

He didn't say the second half of the sentence.

Fei's heart clenched as he listened to the insect cub's cries. He realized that he had been a bit too harsh on the insect cub as he listened to the words coming out of its mouth.

Just as he was at a loss, Jiang Xu's words made him pause.

His hands, hanging by his sides, unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes.

He was stunned not because he was sleeping with the baby insect, but because of Jiang Xu's words, "Your male father also loves your female father very much."

His lord loved him very much!

Upstairs, Wenxi, who had finished showering sometime earlier, looked at the scene below and silently shook his head. He glanced sideways at the second bedroom.

Well, I've changed my sleeping spot again.

He turned and went back to the master bedroom, picked up the box of his belongings, and returned to the railing. Looking at the few insects frozen downstairs, he hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and tapped the edge of the railing.

Seeing the two insects looking down at him from below, he withdrew his hand: "I'm going to sleep in the second bedroom. You two should get some rest too."

In the end, the family of four still slept in the master bedroom, but it was different from that of an ordinary family.

A warm yellow nightlight shone in the dark room, and the two insects on the bed slept with their positions clearly separated.

In the dead of night, on the bed where his breathing had long since become steady, Fei Mo opened his eyes.

He glanced down at the blanket separating him from Jiang Xu, then looked at Jiang Xu who had already fallen asleep.

My heart felt inexplicably heavy.

This was the first time he and Jiang Xu had slept together since he went on his business trip.

Literally, they slept together, three insects and one weasel under three blankets. The two little ones who were originally sleeping in the middle had already crawled out of the central blanket and moved to either side of Jiang Xu's body.

He silently gazed at the face that was identical to that of his lord, a face that still held the soul of his lord before the New Year.

His gaze slowly turned cold, gradually settling on the sleeping male insect's vulnerable neck.

If the other party dies, will his powerful lord be able to return?

The dimly lit room kept out the chill of early spring, while tender green buds quietly sprouted from the bare branches of the tree in the corner of the courtyard.

Fei's hand had quietly landed on Jiang Xu's neck without him noticing, his emotionless gaze fixed on his hand.

With just a little effort, his male insect might be able to return.

The loose hand gradually began to tighten, continuously constricting.

As Fei watched the sleeping male insect's relaxed brows gradually furrow, a mixture of anxiety and anticipation began to stir within him.

In Jiang Xu's hazy consciousness, he only felt a hand gripping his neck, and the original itchy sensation gradually began to feel strange.

He raised his hand and grasped the hand around his neck, his hoarse, low voice murmuring helplessly, "Stop fooling around."

Gently stroking the familiar hand in his palm, he slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the female insect beside him, turned to the side, and hugged him and the insect together in his arms.

Sleep well.

After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Fei stood stiffly, staring at the male insect before him. A beam of light shone into his heart, and his stunned and confused state vanished instantly.

He nervously emerged again, opened his mouth but didn't utter a sound, and after a few seconds, as if making a decision, he cautiously called out, "My Lord?"

"Um?"

Jiang Xu's muffled nasal voice rang in his ears. Fei's eyes widened, his heart leaped into his throat, and he tentatively called out again, "Master?"

"Mmm." Jiang Xu responded again with his eyes closed. He raised his hand and affectionately rubbed the head of the insect in his arms, feeling the stiffness of the body in his arms.

He opened his eyes slightly, looked at Fei's astonished face in a daze, lowered his head and kissed him on the lips, whispering, "Sleep."

Inside the room, Jiang Xu's steady breathing could be heard, while the insect in his arms was staring at him with bloodshot eyes.

After suppressing his emotions for two days, he finally found an outlet, and tears began to well up in his eyes.

"My lord," he murmured cautiously.

This time, however, there was no response from Jiang Xu.

Suddenly, a fire was lit in my heart, and the frozen heart began to beat gradually, faster and faster, louder and louder.

Fei snuggled closer to Jiang Xu through the blanket, then hugged Jiang Xu back, finding a comfortable position in his arms. After two days without sleep, he finally closed his eyes.

The next day, as dawn broke, Jiang Xu slowly opened his eyes. He looked around the room in a daze, not immediately realizing where he was.

The snoring of the two little ones was still ringing in his ears, but... what was this snow-white expanse in front of him?

He subconsciously raised his hand to touch it, but to his surprise, the snow-white skin rubbed against his chest in a cooperative manner.

Jiang Xu suddenly opened his eyes, and the snow-white scene before him quickly focused—it was the female insect's hair.

He paused for a moment, then quickly moved his body back. To his surprise, the female insect snorted twice and leaned closer to him.

Jiang Xu was no longer sleepy. He looked down at the insect rubbing against his chest and slowly opened his eyes.

Those deep blue eyes met his gaze, filled with confusion.

"A powerful ruler?"
