The powerful leader was tough on the outside but soft on the inside; the aloof major general fell fo

Ashel had just knocked on the door when the door was pushed open a crack by that tiny force.

The light from inside shone through the crack in the door.

Ashel paused.

He pushed the door open and said softly, "My lord, I'm coming in."

The male ruler leaned against the headboard, the blue light of the terminal screen casting a small shadow on his face.

Hearing the noise, Cen Li raised his head and looked over.

Ashel hurriedly said, "My lord, the door wasn't closed, so I just came in."

Ash could feel the lord's gaze on him, perhaps wondering why he had come.

Before the lord could speak, Ashel took a few steps forward and asked, "My lord..."

"...Do you need your bed warmed?"

Ashl mustered all his courage and stammered out the sentence.

The female insect was wearing soft pajamas, and the warm yellow light shone on her, adding a touch of coziness.

Ashir stood there restless, waiting for a while, but did not receive a reply from the powerful lord.

He slowly lowered his eyelids, and just as he thought the lord had rejected him, Ashel heard the lord's faint voice.

"come over."

The male ruler stared at him and patted the other half of the bed beside him.

Ashel's dormant heart began to beat again.

He walked over.

Then, I lay down.

The lord had just turned off the terminal. Ashel blinked. "My lord, when are you going to sleep?"

"Now."

At the same time as the male ruler's voice, the sound of the lights being turned off was heard with a "click".

Ashel lay with his eyes open in the darkness, surrounded by pitch blackness, his hearing amplified.

The other half of the bed sank in, where the male master lay down.

After a slight commotion nearby, the air fell silent.

It's too quiet.

Ashel could even hear his own heartbeat.

The female insect was silly; she didn't even cover herself with a blanket.

He just lay there, completely still, on the bed.

Perhaps it's because they didn't get their permission?

Cen Li remembered the two quilts from before and took the initiative to pull some quilts over to Asher.

"Aren't you cold?" came the calm voice of the male ruler from the side.

It seemed like there were no significant ups and downs.

Before Ashel could reply, a warm blanket suddenly covered his waist and abdomen.

Ashel's heart skipped a beat, and he murmured, "Thank you, Master."

He turned his head and looked to the side.

There was another sound of the blanket shaking, and then Ashel was covered up by the blanket.

The powerful voice seemed to whisper in his ear, "Build it yourself."

Ashel gave a vague reply.

He pulled the blanket up and buried himself completely in it.

The powerful ruler didn't speak; his breathing quickened slightly.

Ashel, on his own initiative, moved a little closer to the male ruler.

The powerful ruler remained silent, seemingly tacitly approving of his actions.

Ashel calmed himself down a little.

As Ashel entered, he habitually looked around and found that there was only one blanket on the bed.

It was the same last night.

The quilt that the male lord had taken from the guest room should have been put back.

Ashel was initially hesitant about whether she should get another blanket to cover herself with.

He was torn.

Unexpectedly, the powerful ruler directly solved this problem for him.

While Ashel was still thinking about other things, Cen Li had already fallen asleep.

However, he struggled to wake up in the middle of the night.

Cen Li dreamt that he was being crushed by a huge rock, and no matter what he did, he couldn't break free.

It was so heavy it made him feel like he couldn't breathe.

When Cen Li opened his eyes, he found that Asher had jumped on him.

The female insect was pressing down on him, her head buried in the crook of his neck.

The tip of her nose was pressed against his neck with unusual clarity.

My breath is warm.

Cen Li was puzzled.

Ashleigh's sleeping posture wasn't this bad before.

Could it be due to a period of weakness?

No exaggeration, Ashel was practically lying on top of him, otherwise Cen Li wouldn't have had such a strange dream.

Cen Li laboriously lifted the arm that the female insect was tightly wrapped around, and pushed him aside.

Ashel was fast asleep.

Even with all that fuss, Cen Li showed no sign of waking up.

After doing all this, Cen Li went to sleep peacefully.

Cen Li woke up again later.

When I opened my eyes, it was Ashel again, just as I expected.

It wasn't as serious as last time, when it put pressure on Cen Li's chest.

But she still clung tightly to Cen Li, like an octopus, her nose brushing against his shoulder.

It's all because of those sticky bugs.

Female insects in their weakened state are extremely craving male pheromones.

This message suddenly popped into Cen Li's mind.

He understood why Ashleigh had been acting so clingy today.

Through the gap in the curtains, it was already getting bright.

For the sake of his sleep, Cen Li changed his position.

Sideways, face to face.

This prevented Ashel from overpowering him again.

After tossing and turning all night, Cen Li was so tired that he fell asleep very quickly.

He was awakened again by the sound of Ashel getting up.

As soon as Cen Li opened his eyes, he saw the female insect carefully lift his hand from her waist.

The male lord suddenly opened his eyes, startling Ashel.

His expression quickly turned to annoyance, and he spoke cautiously, "My lord, did I wake you?"

When Ash woke up this morning, the first thing that caught his eye was the magnified handsome face of the male ruler.

The male ruler held him, encircling him completely in his arms.

After processing this information, Ashel was both bewildered and couldn't help but look up at the powerful ruler.

The male's pheromones smell so good.

Ashel twitched his nose and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This was the first time Ashel had been woken up by her biological clock and hadn't gotten out of bed immediately, maintaining a close embrace instead.

As time passed, Ashel had to get up.

The powerful ruler's restraining force was exceptionally tight.

Ashel struggled for a long time before carefully lifting the male's forearm. As a result, when he looked up, the male had just opened his eyes.

He was the one who woke up the powerful ruler.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, perhaps... you could sleep a little longer."

A look of apology appeared in Ashel's eyes.

Cen Li was mostly awake now, and he said meaningfully, "Major General, your sleeping posture was terrible last night."

Ashel's body tensed involuntarily, and a series of guesses flashed through his mind.

Did he do something last night?

Did I accidentally hit the male master with my arm while turning over last night? Or did I accidentally kick him with my leg?

It couldn't be that he rolled up most of the blanket, leaving the male ruler to wake up cold in the middle of the night...

Every speculation made Ashel extremely uneasy.

He finally couldn't help but ask, "My lord, did I disturb you last night?"

"indeed."

Ashleigh's heart sank.

Immediately afterwards, he heard the voice of the powerful ruler.

Cen Li's gaze fell on Asher's face. "Last night you used me as a pillow, clinging to me like an octopus, and I couldn't pry myself off."

Is that really how it is?!

This was like a thunderbolt striking Ashel, frying him until he was charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

Ashel's face turned bright red.

If what the male ruler said is true, then his sleeping posture cannot be described as merely bad.

It was terrible.

Was his sleeping posture always this bad every night before?

The powerful ruler couldn't hold back any longer and that's why he told him?

Just listening to the lord's description, Ashel couldn't help but want to disappear into the ground. "Lord... I didn't know it would turn out like this."

"Or... or maybe I should..."

Ashel thought that maybe he should stop sleeping in the same bed with the male master from now on.

But he just couldn't get the second half of the sentence out.

After a while, he accepted the fact that he had a terrible sleeping posture, pulled himself out of his disappointment, and was about to finish what he hadn't said.

Hearing the male's seemingly random question, "Are you still lacking pheromones?"
