The female insect takes a month's maternity leave after laying eggs.
However, this vacation was planned based on ordinary female insects. With the physical recovery ability of Shi'an's S-level male insect, 80% of its strength could be restored after a few days of rest.
Shi An spent a few days in leisure, holding insect eggs during the day and holding his master at night. He watched those female soldiers who couldn't hold back their thirst send flowers, gems, and exotic cats to his master...
—It must be that the female soldiers have too much energy and need more sparring to use up their energy.
Shian considered returning to the Guards.
However, the maternity leave that the Lord approved for him only required one month of postpartum recuperation, so he had to go through the procedures if he wanted to return to the team.
Having been a soldier for two lifetimes, Shi An was very familiar with these procedures. With one hand he protected the insect eggs on his legs, and with the other hand he wrote an application for early return to the team on the terminal screen.
Just as he was about to embellish the application sentence, the insect egg on his palm suddenly moved and turned over on the spot.
Shian stopped typing and looked down at the insect eggs on his legs.
Mu An is not a lively kid. If you don't tease him, he can stay still for the whole day.
He didn't tease Mu An just now.
Shian does not have the ability like Muxi to communicate with the insect eggs, but fortunately, Muan's needs are not difficult to guess. Shian glanced at the time displayed in the upper right corner of the light screen and understood.
At 12 noon, it was time for him to read the larvae story to Mu An.
Strangely enough, in order to teach him about eggs, he read the larvae story to Mu An before lunch and after dinner these days. After reading it several times, Mu An actually remembered it.
If he didn't recite it when the time came, the insect egg would make some noise to remind him.
The insect egg under his palm rolled around again. Shi An softened his expression and gently stroked the insect egg on his leg, "Be good, little one. I will read it to you right away."
The eggs stopped moving.
Shi comforted Chongdan, quickly glanced over the application he had written, confirmed that it was correct, and pressed send.
After submitting the application, Shian found the downloaded collection of larvae stories on the terminal screen.
It is now lunch break. Even if the Governor approves his application to join the team in the next second, he can still finish reading today's story to Chongdan before returning to the team.
“Today’s story is The Ice Queen.
“The Ice Queen was born on an ice planet. She struggled to get out of her eggshell, and saw only a huge ice hole and thousands of unhatched eggs.
"Their queen has already left this cold and desolate planet with her hive. These unhatched eggs are the abandoned ones..."
As Shi An was reading the larvae story, he suddenly heard a beep. At the same time, a notification bar popped up above the screen, with the following words written in eye-catching red letters:
Your application was rejected
turn down
He sent the application directly to the Lord. The Lord had done physical assessments on him every night during the past few days and was very clear about his physical condition. He should naturally know that the training intensity of the Royal Guards was not a problem for him, so why did he reject his application
Shian used a terminal screen to continue reading the larvae story while simultaneously checking the reason for the rejection.
The reason is…
Without the signature of the Lord, it will not be approved.
Shian: “???”
You are my lord.
When you apply for maternity leave, you can apply, sign, and approve the entire process in one go. But why do you choose to forget your identity when it comes to canceling your leave
It's definitely not a signature issue, so why didn't the male master let him cancel his leave? Was the male master moved by the pursuit of a female soldier? Although he knew that this possibility was very small, Shi An's heartbeat was still out of rhythm for a moment.
It is still necessary to return to the personal guards as soon as possible. The female insect must always stay by the side of the male master to make her presence felt in order to secure his favor.
Shi An finished reading the lunch story absentmindedly and sent the eggs back to the larvae room to rest.
The larvae room was designed and supervised by the medical team. The entire room was covered with thick cushions. There were no hard or sharp objects in the room that the insect eggs could touch. Every object had its edges softened.
Placing the insect eggs on the soft cushion where Mu An usually stayed, Shi An prepared to go check on Mu Xi before the lunch break was over.
But what reason should I use? Should I just say I came to ask the Lord for his signature
Just as he was thinking, Shian sensed that there was a bug standing at the door. This breath... It was Will's personal guard, why was he here
Shian turned around in confusion, only to see Musi standing behind him.
Shian paused for a moment, forgetting to greet him.
The chief guard was guarding the door, naturally because he didn't notice that Musi had entered the house.
"Did you get scared?" Mu Xi looked down at the pure white plush slippers on her feet and smiled apologetically at Shi An, "You can walk without making any noise wearing these."
Musi was wearing a neat military uniform with a dark background and gold patterns. He had no combat boots, but instead wore plush slippers that he had specially changed into for entering the larvae room.
There was no sound when the plush slippers stepped on the soft cushion, but Shian knew that this was not the reason why he had not been able to find the insect even though it was so close.
Because they were together every day and were too familiar with each other's breath, he couldn't be on guard against Mu Xi.
"My lord..." Shian glanced at the quietly lying insect egg, then looked towards the door, expressing his intention to talk to Musi alone.
Mu Xi nodded slightly, turned around and went to wait for Shi An on the sofa in the outer room.
Shian gently closed the door of the larvae room, walked to the sofa opposite Musi and sat down, then opened the terminal under Musi's gaze.
"Master," Shian respectfully handed a light screen to Mu Xi, "The application for cancellation of leave requires your signature."
Mu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. The female insect actually used the reason he rejected to ask him to deal with it.
Pulling over the light screen, Mu Xi looked away when he saw that the female insect had written that she would return to the team tomorrow. "We have to wait until your body recovers."
But he had recovered a long time ago. Even though he was still not as strong as he was at his peak, if he fought against a bug as strong as Will's personal guard, Shian felt that he could beat it with one hand.
Just as he was wondering, Shian keenly caught Musi's gaze sliding across his chest secretly.
Before a female insect asks a male insect for help in doing something, she has to take the trouble to please the male insect. Only after she has pleased the male insect will the male insect graciously respond to her request.
Shian: “I understand!”
Well, I understand.
Musi pushed the CD back with satisfaction.
Shian did not retract the light screen, but looked around cautiously.
After making sure that the doors were closed and the curtains were drawn, Shian stood up and walked to Musi. He took a step forward, put his knees on the sofa cushion, and knelt on Musi.
"?"
Musi didn't understand what the female insect was doing, so she leaned back in her chair and looked up at Shian.
The female insect subconsciously straightened her back, then raised her hand to unbutton her clothes under his gaze.
"You...what's wrong?" From Shi An's actions, Mu Xi immediately thought of the swelling of the female insect's pectoral muscles after giving birth, but this shouldn't be the case, as he had just treated the other party in the morning.
The main food of Zerg larvae is milk fruit, and female larvae do not have much milk. According to the experience of the past few days, it will take about 24 hours for them to swell.
Are there any other discomforts
Mu Xi thought with some worry, and had already called up the group chat page with the medical bug in his mind, ready to contact the medical bug immediately as soon as he understood the situation.
Shi An looked a little distressed. He pinched it himself and said apologetically, "Master Xiong, there isn't much left now. I may have to inconvenience you."
"Not much?" Mu Xi frowned slightly, feeling even more confused. What did this mean? And why did he pinch it? Was there something inside
After the female insect invited him to a "dinner", Musi specifically asked the medical insect related questions. The medical insect mentioned that if the swelling is not handled properly, it will cause illness.
When Shian saw Musi frowning, he subconsciously wanted to apologize and said that he would make it up to him in the future. However, before he could open his mouth, Musi took action directly.
"Master Xiong..." Shian took a quick breath, and his back, which had been straight just now, had become soft.
Mu Xi looked solemn.
The feel is no different from a few days ago, and I didn't pinch anything that shouldn't be there. Perhaps professional equipment is needed.
Mu Xi raised his eyes to look at Shi An and said solemnly: "I'll take you for a check-up."
"Hmm?" Shian hadn't recovered from the afterglow yet, and his voice rose with a sweet and pleasant tone.
"Don't worry, I'll ask the medical bug to keep it confidential, and no other bug will know." Mu Xi comforted Shi An while quickly buttoning the bug's shirt.
The feeling of being touched by the male insect just now was almost gone. Shi An looked at himself in a daze, dressed neatly, "Why do you want to... Don't you like this way?"
These days, as long as he expressed his satisfaction, Musi would accept his invitation to smoke, and he thought Musi liked it.
It’s okay. If you don’t like this kind of flattery, he has other ways.
