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

Chloe blinked, and when Mona Yi let go, he stuck out his tongue sheepishly, "I forgot."

Monayin was used to his lord's mouth moving faster than his brain. After respectfully greeting Cen Li, he exchanged a helpless glance with Le Jia.

Cen Li suddenly grabbed Asher's arm.

"My queen, Ashel."

Ash stared blankly at the hand that the male ruler was holding his arm with, its knuckles distinct, long and strong.

"Ah, I know!"

Chloe suddenly clapped her hands. "The Light of the Empire, isn't it?"

He acted as if he knew the answer to the question, and finally looked at Cen Li with a look of seeking praise.

"Yes."

Chloe's gaze shifted between Cen Li and Asher, before she finally nodded sharply.

"You two are a perfect match."

Ashel's heart skipped a beat, and as soon as she turned her head, she met the gaze of the male lord.

This is the second time today that he has heard someone say that he and the male are a good match.

"Yeah?"

Cen Li looked at Chloe and raised an eyebrow.

"Of course," Chloe patted her chest confidently, "I never lie."

Cen Li chuckled softly.

Ashel only watched the king for a while. He didn't know the meaning behind the king's smile, but he thought the king looked really good when he smiled.

It's like a glacier melting, releasing gurgling water.

Chloe seemed to have a good affinity with insects; just a short distance they had walked, two or three insects came up to greet him.

"Chloe!"

"here!"

A male insect waved at Chloe.

Chloe's eyes lit up. "It's the bug that was kidnapped with us last time."

To ensure the male insects had a good time, the banquet invited many insects, not just the dozen or so that had been kidnapped.

Chloe's gaze quickly froze, as if she'd spotted an unwanted insect. "What's he doing here?"

"Who?"

Cen Li followed the other person's gaze.

Chloe whispered in his ear, "See that male insect in the blue clothes?"

Cen Li's gaze swept around and finally stopped at one spot.

"That's the Fifth Prince, Demis."

Chloe made a disgusted face. "I don't like him. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing."

Cen Li took a look and realized it was true.

Demis's naturally smiling lips make her stand out from other male insects at a glance, and she gives them an extremely friendly smile when they look at her.

Chloe got goosebumps and exclaimed, "I can't take it anymore!"

"Chloe, what are you all standing there for? Come here quickly, His Highness the Fifth Prince just mentioned you."

Insects are urging us on.

"Well, there's no escaping it now."

Chloe shrugged. "Why bring us up? I wonder what kind of bad idea he's up to."

As they approached, Demis's gaze, clear and unmistakable, landed on Cen Li. "This must be Miha's brother, right?"

Before Cen Li could react, Chloe's expression suddenly changed slightly. She tugged at his arm, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "It's over, they're after you."

"He and Mihaly are related and have a good relationship."

Cen Li and Miha Wu have always been at odds, and everyone in their circle knows this to some extent.

Demis's laughter at insects always brings bad news.

Ashley overheard their conversation, and a worried expression appeared on his face.

Cen Li didn't see it because Demis had already come up to him with a glass of wine in hand, saying, "I've heard so much about you."

A glass of wine was handed to Cen Li.

"Want a drink?"

"This was airlifted back from the Vojark system; it's extremely precious."

Cen Li reached out and took it, but didn't drink it.

Demis smiled and didn't force him to drink.

He raised his glass to the insects around him and said, "You've all suffered while you've been wandering around. You must have a good time today. If you need anything, just tell me."

The male insects started making a commotion and cried out "Yay!"

Soon, an insect spoke up, "Fifth Prince, why haven't I seen the sub-female next to you before?"

"You look so young, are you even an adult yet?"

All the insects' eyes fell on the tiny sub-female, whose body trembled and he couldn't help but shrink back behind Demis.

Demis, however, laughed as he pulled the huddled sub-female to the front, exposing the panicked expression on his face to the insects.

"Of course I'm an adult."

A male insect next to Demis chimed in, "How could Your Highness possibly be underage?"

The male insects chuckled after the first sound, but how much they believed it was anyone's guess.

Demis may look respectable, but his private life is no better than theirs.

Demis answered the initial question, "This sub-female was a gift from Mihaly."

The male insects looked on with sudden realization, their gazes falling on the sub-females becoming increasingly malicious.

"This female is so cute! Mihaly is really generous to give it away!"

Demis chuckled enigmatically, "He didn't lose out; I gave him something better."

Everyone instantly understood, and they started exchanging winks and flirting, creating an inexplicably ambiguous atmosphere.

Only the sub-female was deathly pale, trembling like a quail in Demis's arms.

"How about we play a little game?"

"Whoever wins can take this cute little female home and play with her for a few days."

The male insects were eager to try, and Henda, who had made the suggestion, looked at Demis and said, "His Highness said he would grant all our requests today, so he shouldn't refuse this small request, right?"

"Of course I don't mind." Demis seemed completely unconcerned, waving his hand dismissively.

The male insects cheered.

Only Cen Li and Chloe didn't join in the so-called game.

Demis raised an eyebrow at them. "Aren't you guys going to play together?"

Chloe shook her head repeatedly, "I'm not playing anymore."

Demis looked at Cen Li, and after seeing him shake his head, he showed a disappointed expression. "I thought you would be interested."

Demis cupped the submissive woman's fair and delicate cheek in his palm, causing her to turn to face Cen Li. "Look, doesn't this seem familiar?"

When Ya's timid eyes met Cen Li's gaze, a deep emotion seemed to flash across them, only to vanish in an instant.

It does look somewhat familiar, like I've seen it before.

Cen Li glanced at it a couple more times.

Demis noticed his unusual behavior, smiled slightly, and spontaneously explained to Cen Li, "Doesn't it remind you of your previous sub-female servant?"

West Asia?

Demis has already revealed the answer: "This is his brother, Ryan."

Cen Li looked at the female's face and vaguely remembered her.

Mihalyu once went berserk upstairs and almost strangled this poor sub-female to death.

As Ryan listened to Demis's words, he bit his lower lip, his fingers unconsciously clenching.

Chloe whispered to Cen Li, "Do you have a grudge against that sub-female on the other side? He just glared at you."

Cen Li didn't see it. He glanced over again, but the submissive woman had already lowered her head, and his expression was no longer visible.

Demis suddenly broke into a laugh, "Do you like this sub-female?"

"I can deliver it to you directly."
