Fei noticed a subtle look in Jiang Xu's eyes. Seeing his puzzled expression, Jiang Xu asked, "Did you bring a dagger or any kind of weapon?"

He pulled a dagger from his ankle, which was hidden by his trousers: "This?"

Jiang Xu glanced at the short dagger in his hand, stepped forward and took it: "Borrow it for a bit."

He pulled out his sword, walked to his previous spot, and reached out to fiddle with the stones on the ground.

This time, the search was more thorough than before. There were so many loose stones that it was easy for clues to be buried deep underneath.

The shadows cast by the cliffs change constantly as time goes by.

As the sun set, the sand and dust at the bottom of the cliff carried a touch of coolness.

Jiang Xu then stopped searching, finding no trace of Jiang Mian in any of the places he could think of.

His expression was somewhat somber.

Information doesn't lie; he searched every possible place, but still couldn't find it.

What exactly did he miss?

He glanced at the area he had searched today, thinking about places he might have missed. His gaze swept over Fei's face, then returned to Fei's face.

Only then did he notice that the other person's face was somewhat pale.

Jiang Xu's face darkened, and he quickly walked up to him, reaching out to touch his forehead: "Why is it so hot?"

"I'm fine." Fei just felt a little dizzy.

Jiang Xu remained silent. He glanced at the sky, then at Fei. He had been careless, so engrossed in the search that he had forgotten the time and hadn't noticed Fei's condition.

That's all for today, let's go to the hospital.

He reached out and pulled Fei up, heading straight towards where they had landed.

After walking only a short distance, Fei's steps began to become unsteady.

Seeing his condition, Jiang Xu's expression became even more serious: "Don't bear the discomfort. I told you before, you can tell me if anything happens."

His words clearly carried a hint of anger.

Fei became even more depressed, even somewhat aggrieved; he simply didn't want to delay his important business.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Xu felt a lump in his throat, unsure whether to exhale or not.

Finally, she could only let out a long sigh, help him lean against her, and ask as calmly as possible, "Do you still have the strength to go up?"

"Yes," Fei nodded.

But his wings, unlike his tough mouth, were soft and drooping behind him, unable to fully extend.

Jiang Xu looked at him, who was walking unsteadily, and held his forehead with his hand: "My head hurts."

"I can do it." Fei looked at Jiang Xu and answered very seriously, wanting to prove to him that he really could.

"........" Jiang Xu.

He stepped forward and pulled him into his arms: "Alright, you don't need to force yourself here. If it doesn't work, we can think of another way."

"I'm sorry," Fei said softly, her body limp as she leaned against Jiang Xu's chest.

"I was too rough with myself last night." When Jiang Xu first woke up, that part of his memory was blank, but as time went by, he actually remembered some fragmented moments from last night.

Although he only had partial memories, he could still piece together most of them.

"I'll have Zoe come pick us up. Don't worry, it's nothing serious."

He looked around and saw a gap between two rocks that could block the wind, so he picked up Fei and walked towards the gap.

"Rest here, I'll call Zoe." Jiang Xu helped him sit down on a small rock in the center, letting him lean against a large rock, before walking over to make a call to Zoe.

This time, the other party did not answer as quickly as he had expected. Two consecutive communications went unanswered.

Jiang Xu had no choice but to give up.

At this point, who else could he turn to besides Zoe?

He scrolled through his contacts. Jiang Cheng? Jiang Cheng wouldn't do.

Joe? Joe won't do either.

The subordinate paused when he saw Yu Heng's contact number.

He scrolled down and found that he recognized only a few of the contact methods.

Bernd, Yu Heng, Hill.

After hesitating for a moment, I finally chose Ben Ende, that worm with a poisonous mouth, a bad temper, and a dislike for females.

But he's quite efficient at doing things.

He quickly dialed the number, and the other end answered promptly. Amidst a burst of loud music, the other person's insect-like figure appeared before him: "Hey, busy bug, you're contacting me on your own initiative. Did the sun rise in the west today?"

"Help me," Jiang Xu said bluntly, "Find a quiet place."

The sound was so loud that it hurt Jiang Xu's eardrums.

Bernd was speechless.

The other party called with a cold expression, and their tone was as if they were about to criticize him.

"Oh." Bernd reluctantly walked to a corner, his voice becoming much clearer instantly.

"I'll give you an address, have Chong come pick me up." Jiang Xu's brows finally relaxed.

"Young Master Jiang, is this how you ask Chong for a favor?" Bernd's tone became arrogant again. Suddenly, he realized something was wrong. He had to admit one thing: Jiang Xu had never approached him about these matters.

"No, you didn't even see Zoe today."

Jiang Xu didn't say anything, but sent him an address directly: "I can't get up from the bottom of the cliff, so send a few female insects to find me."

I remember your husband is a general.

"..." Bernd was somewhat surprised and asked curiously, "Why did you go to the bottom of the cliff? Which bottom of the cliff? The one on the west side?"

"Are you coming or not?" Jiang Xu asked indifferently, not wanting to satisfy his curiosity.

"Come on, right now. Wait for me." Why would he refuse a chance to watch a good show?

Thinking of this, he greeted the other male insects and rushed out. When he was making a call to Lan, he paused.

Wait a minute, doesn't he have female insects at home?

How do I find him?

Forget it, forget it. If I can't figure it out, I'll just go and see for myself.

When he reached the bottom of the cliff, he understood what was going on.

It's not that he doesn't contact the female insect at his home, but rather that something happened to that female insect.

Bernd walked up to Jiang Xu and glanced at the female insect beside him. "Tsk, I was wondering why you needed to find other female insects. So it was something that happened to him that prevented you from getting up there."

Jiang Xu glanced at him lazily, then turned to Lan and said, "General Lan, please help me see what's wrong with him."

Lan saw the insect queen beside Jiang Xu and walked forward to Fei's side.

When I placed my hand on the other person's arm, I was startled by the intense heat emanating from their body.

"Why is it so hot?"

Fei was completely dazed at this moment. He glanced blankly at Lan, then weakly shook off Lan's hand and snuggled into Jiang Xu's arms, wanting to get closer to the male insect.

Jiang Xu had no choice but to hold him even tighter in his arms. He looked up at Lan and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

"My lord, it's so hot." Fei obediently and greedily moved closer to Jiang Xu's neck, inhaling his scent as if addicted.

"......" At this point, Lan could see right through it all.
