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

Useful dialogue was scarce.

Cen Li's voice was completely drowned out by Miha Wu's sharp and piercing voice.

"You want me to forgive him? That's impossible!"

"Unless you hand Ashel over to me and do with him as you please, you're absolutely delusional!"

"I just don't know if you can bear to part with it..."

The silver-haired male insect frowned, seemingly impatient, while Miha's voice became increasingly unbearable.

Finally, he punched Mihajlovic in the nose.

The shouting stopped abruptly.

No unrepentant insect buzzed in his ear; the silver-haired male insect seemed thoughtful, as if he had discovered that using his fists was a better solution.

He didn't say another word of nonsense after that.

Miha's shouts turned into angry curses, and he eventually broke down in tears, begging for mercy.

Because it hurts.

It hurts so much!

The weak male insect was beaten by Cen Li from the time he was born.

"Stop, stop hitting me."

"Didn't you want me to forgive Ashel? I forgive him! I forgive him, isn't that enough?!"

Cen Li paused for a moment, then asked, "Did you do this voluntarily?"

Mihajlovic had one of his front teeth knocked out, so he now speaks with a slight lisp.

Her expression clearly showed she was unwilling, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "It was voluntary."

Cen Li then withdrew his hand with satisfaction, and finally asked Miha Wu to make a verbal guarantee and add an apology.

Miha looked at Cen Li in shock, as if he had heard something unforgivable: "What do I need to apologize for? Get this straight, I'm the victim here!"

After saying that, he covered his cheek in pain, grimacing.

Now, even the slightest thing he says will bring up the wound on his face.

However, Cen Li did not give him a chance to refuse, twisting his wrist and making a cracking sound.

The memory of the pain resurfaced, and Miha'u's face turned ashen as he looked at Cen Li as if he were a tyrant making a scene.

"...I swear I will never pursue Ashel's responsibility again."

"Anything else?"

Cen Li urged him on, already on the verge of becoming impatient.

Mihajlovic instinctively shook his neck. "I apologize."

"Do I need to teach you how to apologize?"

Cen Li's voice turned somber.

Miha, pinned down by the insects, had never felt so humiliated in his twenty-odd years of life. His face, unrecognizable even to his own mother, broke down in tears, screaming, "I apologize to Ashir! He's innocent! It's all my fault!"

"Is this okay?!"

Cen Li nodded reluctantly, too lazy to waste any more time on him.

He suddenly turned his head, facing the insects outside the screen.

The video suddenly went out at that point.

After watching the video, all the insects looked at Cen Li with complicated expressions.

"So, now I can take my female servant with me, right?"

Cen Li looked at the female soldier who had also become dumbfounded, his eyes conveying a clear meaning.

come.

Ashel blinked slowly, finally realizing the truth of the matter.

There's a surreal feeling of surviving a catastrophe.

He lifted his foot to walk towards the male, when the chain on his wrist suddenly rattled, reminding him of the insect's presence.

The shackled hand reached out to Aura.

He was gestured to open it.

With Mihalyu's personal assurance, Aura naturally stopped making things difficult for the Major General, even though it was obvious that Mihalyu had been coerced.

But as long as they have this video as evidence, they won't be held accountable.

"Alright, Major General, you are free now."

The electronic shackles fell off, and Aura smiled at Ashel.

This is all so unbelievable. No one expected that Ashel's indisputable guilt would be so easily cleared.

It's simply because of the bias of coming from a single male insect.

Aura was somewhat envious of the Major General; male insects capable of "seeking justice" for female insects were a rare breed in the Empire.

Ash didn't look at the complex expressions on the female insects' faces behind him. Once the restraints on his hands were removed, he stepped towards the male.

Ashel could feel that the lord was watching him.

"Thank you, my lord."

Ash said sincerely, "We've already reached the opposite side of Cen Li."

After saying that, he was in a daze for a moment. He didn't know when it started, but the words he said most often changed from "Please punish me, my lord" to "Thank you, my lord."

Ashel had lost count of how many times he had thanked the powerful lord.

Verbal expression is always superficial.

Ash felt that his thanks were always unoriginal, always the same phrase, and even if he repaid the lord double, it seemed he still couldn't repay the debt.

Ashel's eyes were very clear, and his thoughts were written all over his face.

Cen Li could tell that his gratitude came from the bottom of his heart, and that he was genuinely grateful.

He couldn't understand Ashel.

Ashel is like a stray dog, usually looking pitiful. Bugs that pass by and don't like him will take their anger out on him. Sometimes, if they kick him and hurt him, he will whimper a couple of times.

Sobbing, so pitiful.

But if you casually give him some food, he will remember you; if you squat down and pat his head, he will wag his tail happily at you.

You clearly bullied him before, but he seems to have no memory of it.

Cen Li couldn't understand.

He thought Ashel was stupid and silly.

"I won't help you next time."

Cen Li's words were curt and unyielding.

Although Ashel was somewhat downcast after hearing this, he didn't take it to heart this time, and just let it pass by.

The male ruler's words are always cold and sometimes hurtful, but his words and actions are always completely different.

Otherwise, why would they give him pheromones and perform mental energy manipulation on him?

Cen Li watched Ash'er's ever-changing expressions, and finally, the corners of his mouth seemed to curve up slightly.

Cen Li frowned, looked carefully, and made sure he wasn't seeing things.

Ash wasn't hurt by his words; in fact, he was rather pleased.

After discovering that the humiliation value hadn't increased at all in the harassment system, Cen Li thought: ...

He's increasingly confused about what constitutes the standard for humiliating Ashley.

He had tried so hard to ridicule Ash, but the humiliation value didn't change at all.

Cen Li's face turned a little cold.

The fact that his "efforts" went unrewarded made him doubt himself and dampened his enthusiasm.

Feeling no desire to speak, Cen Li walked home listlessly.

Ash was taken aback when he saw Cen Li suddenly turn around and leave. By the time he realized what was happening, he had already started to follow.
