We are of noble blood and we are of unrivaled elegance.
We bring killing, we are invincible.
We are ambitious and we are not afraid of danger.
We water the roses with our blood, guarding the supreme treasure. If anyone covets it, please kill him with your sword immediately.
There are many beasts lurking in the jungle, and hesitation often leads to failure.
—Shelain family motto.
The people of the Chris Empire evolved from insects to humans over thousands of years. They stood at the top of the food chain, dressed in suits and ties like the original humans, and were elegant, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the animal nature in their genes.
They are warlike and bloodthirsty, and it is their nature to fight, both for prey and for mates.
Whatever you want, you must get it, because standing there and crying will not only lead to nothing, but also to being eliminated. This ambition and strength has allowed the Shelain family to continue its glory and status for hundreds of years.
This kind of education was instilled in Xielain since he was a child. It was late at night, but he was not sleepy at all. His military jacket was half open, revealing his delicate collarbone. He fell into the sofa in a casual and lazy manner, but as soon as he closed his eyes, the face of the male insect he just met today appeared in his mind.
"Tang, Yan..."
Shelain lowered his voice and muttered to himself, the sexy ending gradually disappearing into the air without a trace.
He had a military jacket on his knees, the one Tang Yan had lent him. He sniffed the collar and could smell the faint scent of candy. Xie Lain easily took the jacket with a single fingertip.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but surrounded by Fang's aura, his restless and burning mental strength actually regained some of its long-lost balance.
Xie Lane used his military network privileges to find Tang Yan's identity file. When he saw that Fang had accumulated 19 bad records for molesting female insects on the street, his brows slightly wrinkled and he fell into deep thought.
No wonder the male insect appeared in the infirmary. It turned out that he was escorted to the First Army to serve.
Xie Lain found it hard to imagine Tang Yan flirting with the female insect with that slightly cold face. He frowned and turned the page of the file, finally landing on the "C" of the level judgment.
It's really C-class...
Just... C-level
A C-rank male insect of commoner origin.
Xie Lain closed his eyes and slowly exhaled, feeling an indescribable reluctance in his heart. The pheromones of a C-level male insect were not enough to appease an SS-level female insect. The gap between the two levels was too high and could not be made up by technology.
He stared at the file again, not knowing what he was thinking, and sat on the sofa for a long time without moving. Until a familiar voice came from upstairs, he stood up subconsciously.
"Shelaine, why aren't you resting yet?" Duke Eaton couldn't help but frown when he saw Shelaine sitting in the living room late at night without sleeping.
Xie Laine hid Tang Yan's coat behind her without leaving a trace and nodded slightly: "Sorry, father, I will go upstairs to rest later."
The scarlet in his purple eyes had not yet faded, which was obviously the sequelae of the mental violence.
Duke Eaton frowned and said meaningfully, "Shelaine, I have to remind you that the inhibitor cannot delay you for too long. The engagement ceremony of the Sirio family must be put on the agenda."
This damn, fucking engagement ceremony.
Shelain walked up the stairs slowly, looking directly at the Duke of Eaton without hesitation: "Father, I will pass, it doesn't have to be him."
The Duke of Eaton said something unusual: "Shelain, do you know what you are doing? Do you want to break off the engagement?"
"No, no, no, father, we haven't even gotten engaged yet, how can you call it a regret?"
Xielaine denied it out loud, and smiled elegantly and dignifiedly, whispering word by word: "You are the one who passed away. The Xielaine family has the noblest blood, so everything we have must be the best."
"And I am just following your teachings and choosing to fight for the 'best'."
As for the garbage, just leave it where it belongs.
Thinking that the Duke of Eaton would not like him to call the young master of the Sirio family like that, Shelain swallowed the last sentence in order to avoid offending him.
Duke Eaton didn't expect that Xielaine would dare to contradict him. He looked solemnly and said, "Xielaine, what I chose for you is the best. Believe me, Sirio is the most suitable match for you among all the A-level male insects."
"Only God knows,"
Xie Lain stood with his hands behind his back, Tang Yan's coat hidden behind him. "Should I be glad that the male insect you found is very good? Sirio is tyrannical, and my male father is your male master. Excuse me, those sub-females of his are so charming. How long have you not seen him?"
Duke Eton hit the sore spot: "You—"
Shelain sneered, "But the fact is that you are lucky that he doesn't come home at night."
It's better to stay alone in an empty room than to kneel down and be humiliated with whip marks all over your body, isn't it
Duke Eaton couldn't help but tremble his eyes: "Shelain, I know you are very unwilling, but this is the fate of every female insect, no one can escape it."
Whose? Didn’t that commoner guy, Youan, escape
If he can do it, why can't I
Xielaine lowered his eyes to hide the surging emotions in his eyes. Although he lowered his head, his tone could not hide the arrogance in his bones: "I'm sorry, female father, I have no intention of doing this. But please believe that I will definitely choose the best male insect in the Chris Empire."
He smiled after he finished speaking, and the Duke of Eaton bowed gracefully and turned around to say, "Father, good night."
As the door clicked shut, the smile on Shelain's lips faded a little bit, and gradually became expressionless. Everything he faced was far from as easy as he said, because the laws of the empire always unconditionally favored male insects, not to mention that insidious and despicable guy, Sirio.
Whether in terms of family background or male insect level, Tang Yan does not seem to be able to fight with Sirio.
Xie Laine lowered his eyes and looked at the coat in his hands. He should have let go, but his fingertips were very honest and he couldn't help but clench it tighter and tighter. After a long time, he finally threw it on the bed and prepared to go wash up.
Xie Lain looked in the mirror and unbuttoned his military uniform one by one. His perfect body was neither too weak nor too strong, enough to make any male insect salivate. The light from the crystal lamp cast a warm tone on his white jade skin, and his muscle lines became smoother and clearer.
Each female insect has a unique pattern on the back of its neck, while the male insects have a clean pattern.
The insect pattern on the back of Xielaine's neck is ancient and full of charm. The dark red lines meander on the fair skin, forming a pattern similar to a rose. Ambiguous and charming.
"Your insect pattern is very beautiful..."
The male insect with green eyes once praised in a low voice.
Xie Lain raised his hand and touched the back of his neck. His ears felt hot, as if Fang had whispered this sentence to him again. His violet eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and his eyelashes trembled.
Each military female has a beautiful body, but unfortunately, the naturally weak male insects hate this kind of strength. They always whip and beat the female insects mercilessly and enjoy it.
Some even go so far as to peel off the wings that female soldiers use to fly and keep them as collections, because the male insects do not have wings like the female insects due to their bad genes, and they are always very jealous of this.
If you can't get it, destroy it...
Xie Lain closed his eyes. If he married a male insect in the future, he would probably have many more scars from whipping, and they would never fade away. Because such scars would appear every day.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench his fingertips slowly. The force was too great, even leaving blood marks on his skin, and his eyes were dark.
Really, very unwilling...
Ding, please pay attention, the villain's blackening degree has risen to 57, please be vigilant!
The system suddenly rang in the middle of the night, waking Tang Yan up. He sat up from the bed, sleepy-eyed, and when he found that the darkening degree that had been reduced to 49 had inexplicably increased to 57, he couldn't help but frowned: "What did you do?"
The system didn't want to take the blame and shook its head nervously: I'm the mother hen, I did nothing wrong.
Tang Yan remembered that Xie Lane was fine when he left the infirmary yesterday. How come his evilness suddenly increased so much? Did something happen
He unconsciously touched the communicator on his wrist, but suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have Xie Laine's contact information, so he had to give up.
Tang Yan was actually a little puzzled: "Why did the degree of darkness increase?"
The system was even more confused than him. It was obvious that this bastard had done nothing, right? Please explore on your own.
It seemed as if it was afraid that Tang Yan would attack it, and its shiny figure disappeared into the air with a whoosh.
Tang Yan suddenly lost his sleepiness. This world is too dangerous for female insects, even if Xie Lain is a noble, he cannot avoid it. If I had known, I should have taken the initiative to pass on Fang's contact information yesterday, so that I can ask about the situation now.
The military department was supposed to go to work at 7 a.m. When the sun just rose, Minister Lindsay went to the medical department to clock in ten minutes early as usual, and found that a male insect had arrived earlier than him.
"Tang Yan?" Lindsay's voice was full of confusion.
Tang Yan was used to getting up early. He walked out of the storage room at the back, holding a pile of messy medical records, and his black military boots made a light sound. The slightly thin white coat fit him perfectly, outlining his slender and straight figure.
"Minister Lindsay," Tang Yan handed him a record book and said, "This is the list of visitors from yesterday. Major General Shelain came to you and wanted to inject an inhibitor, but you were not here, so I injected it for him."
Minister Lindsay's shock quickly changed from "this male insect got up so early" to "he dared to inject inhibitors into the female soldiers", and he said in a surprised tone: "You injected inhibitors into Major General Shelain?!"
The inhibitor needs to be injected from the middle of the spine, which means taking off clothes, but the female insect's body must not be seen by male insects other than the male master.
So... How did Tang Yan inject it? !
Lindsay couldn't help but ask again: "Are you sure you injected inhibitors into Major General Shelain?"
Tang Yan pulled out a chair and sat down at the table, legs crossed, black military boots wrapped around his slender legs, his temperament was more free and easy than most male insects: "I'm sure."
Minister Lindsay asked, "How did you inject him?!"
Tang Yan tilted his head to look at him. Because of the dim light, his green eyes were almost black at a certain moment, which was a very rare eye color for the Zerg. But it seemed to fit him better than green.
"When is… "
Tang Yan said slowly, word by word, under Minister Lindsay's nervous gaze, "Injected with a needle."
He avoided the question deftly.
Minister Lindsay didn't ask any further questions for some reason. He realized later that Major General Shelain seemed to be getting engaged to the young master of the Silio family. It would be terrible if this matter got out.
He frowned and deliberately frightened Tang Yan: "I have to tell you, sir, you are not qualified to give injections without a medical qualification certificate. So if you ask, you must have been the one to give the inhibitor yesterday. Do you understand?"
Tang Yan was surprisingly good, and hummed: "I know."
Minister Lindsay breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Tang Yan inconspicuously, and for the first time he felt that the male insect might not be so bad.
The male insects from the other three districts had a big fight yesterday over accommodation issues, giving the quartermaster a headache. This morning at work, they all pretended to be sick, one complained of a stomachache, one complained of an eyeache, and one complained of a footache, but they couldn't find out what the disease was.
Tang Yanju is the most serious and dedicated one among them.
Minister Lindsay was not as cold and stern as Tang Yan. He made a drink and lay comfortably in a chair, preparing to enjoy this pleasant and quiet morning, but he found that the previously deserted infirmary was suddenly filled with injured female soldiers.
"Minister Lindsay, please apply medicine to me." The head was bleeding.
"Minister Lindsay, I can't walk." This is a leg injury.
"Minister Lindsay, I have a broken hand. I may need to stay in the medical department for ten days to half a month." This is a broken hand.
The door of the infirmary was crowded with female soldiers. Each of them had some wounds on their bodies. Although they were looking at Minister Lindsay, their eyes were all on Tang Yan who was standing beside them.
Insect God, this male insect is really handsome. I thought that guy Mil was bragging, but I didn’t expect it to be true.
Minister Lindsay's mood suddenly became terrible. He could tell at a glance that the injuries were deliberately caused by the female soldiers. He put the water cup heavily on the table and said, "Do you guys want to complain? Where is Admiral Ilvisa? I'm going to find him now!"
One of the female soldiers whispered, "Admiral Ilviza is currently going through the divorce process with his male host. He probably doesn't have time to care about us right now."
Another female soldier added: "His male master always abuses the insect cubs. Admiral Ilvisa is very angry and is very busy."
Ilvisa, this surname sounds very familiar. He seems to be the most wealthy noble among the four dukes of the empire.
Tang Yan saw what happened between them, but he didn't think much about it and didn't take it to heart. He put on sterilized gloves, stood up and found gauze and hemostatic medicine from the storage shelf. One of the female soldiers with bleeding head said, "Sit over there, I'll bandage you."
Sometimes he rarely thought about some things, for example, the reason these female soldiers hurt themselves was just to see him in the infirmary.
The female soldier never thought that Tang Yanju would really bandage him. Amid the envious gazes of the other female soldiers, he walked to the bedside and sat down, holding his knees tightly with both hands, and said with a stammered voice: "Thank...thank you very much, sir..."
Tang Yan hummed in response, and then began to bandage his wounds skillfully. Minister Lindsay had no time to care about anything, and hurriedly left the infirmary, not to complain, but to advise his friend.
A female insect that divorces a male insect will not have a good ending, especially when the insect is carrying a baby.
Tang Yan spent the entire morning bandaging the injured female soldiers in the infirmary, and ended up having to stop the bleeding due to the running out of hemostatic medicine. Unfortunately, Xie Laine was not among them.
The last female soldier who was bandaging the wound was a little bolder when she saw that Tang Yan seemed to be in a good mood. She blushed and said, "I am so sorry for causing you trouble today. It's lunch time now. Why don't you go to the military cafeteria to eat?"
Thanks to the excellent genes of female insects, most of them are handsome, but not less beautiful than female insects. This morning alone, no less than 20 female soldiers have shown him their affections, but Tang Yan didn't seem to notice that he was flirting with them until they were almost blinded, and remained indifferent throughout the whole process.
Tang Yan: "Thank you, I'll go there in a moment."
There is no other way to eat in the military department, not to mention that these male insects who were sent in for service will not be able to step out of the military department before the ten-day deadline.
Tang Yan sorted out the messy things in the infirmary and took the elevator downstairs, preparing to go to the military cafeteria for dinner and see if there was a chance to meet Xie Lane.
At that time, Xie Lain and his colleagues were walking out of the conference room in twos and threes, but he was not in a good mood. Not only because of the long and boring meeting, but also because his competitor, Major General Youan, held a partner ceremony yesterday.
Married to an A-level male insect named Qin Yang
Most of the female soldiers were congratulating Youan.
"Congratulations, Major General Euan, you have found an excellent partner."
"Mr. Qin Yang is very gentle, polite, and handsome. Believe me, you will never meet a better male insect than him."
"Yuan, I really envy you. Mr. Qin Yang is even better than some noble male insects."
Youan stood in the middle, blushing as he thanked everyone for their blessings. He walked without any worries, and it was obvious that he had not been whipped by a male insect. The only thing exposed on his neck was a light red kiss mark from his imagination. His face was filled with nothing but happiness, without humiliation, paleness, pain, and despair.
Shelain stood in the distance and watched coldly.
The noble generals of the same faction as Shelaine had similar expressions. Dan saw that Shelaine was in a bad mood and advised him, "Yuan is only matched with a common male insect. Shelaine, your partner is the descendant of the Duke. Relax, you are no worse than him."
Little did he know that this would only make Shelain feel worse.
Xie Lain didn't, but just glanced at Dan coldly. Then he adjusted his tie slowly. He suddenly walked to Youan, his black military boots fell, and his voice was light, revealing a calm and elegant manner: "Major General Youan—"
Xie Lain stared at Youan quietly. Although it was a blessing, it didn't sound like any blessing at all. Instead, it was mixed with a bit of sarcasm. He said softly, "Congratulations, and have a happy wedding."
They are the deadly enemies, always competing with each other not only in the army but also in the outside world. They are not at loggerheads with each other, but they are not far apart.
Facing Xielaine's silent provocation, Youan smiled and said meaningfully: "Congratulations, Major General Xielaine, you will be engaged to Lord Sirio soon. I wish you happiness."
Xie Lane was pricked in the painful spot, and his eyelashes trembled uncontrollably for a moment. His face changed slightly, and he didn't know what to do for a moment, and he almost couldn't maintain his composure. After a long while, he slowly pulled out a curve from the corner of his mouth: "Thank you for your good words, Major General Youan."
Ding! Please pay attention, the villain's blackening degree has risen to 60, please be vigilant!
When the elevator stopped at the 25th floor, Tang Yan suddenly heard a system notification. He frowned, becoming more and more confused. Just as he was about to ask something, he saw the elevator door open with a ding, and a group of female military officers were standing outside, led by Xie Lain.
They both couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Tang Yan didn't expect that by such a coincidence he would run into Xie Lane in the elevator.
As for the other female soldiers, they were stunned for a moment by the male insect they had never seen before. After they reacted, they walked into the elevator in twos and threes, their eyes were either amazed or shocked, but they were very polite and nodded, saying, "Sir, it is an honor to ride with you."
Xie Lane was the last to react. He walked into the elevator a little late, and felt that Tang Yan was even more charming than yesterday. His fingertips tightened unconsciously, but his face remained elegant and self-possessed. He nodded slightly, a strand of silver-gray hair fell down, covering his purple eyes, and greeted in a low voice: "Mr. Tang Yan, good afternoon."
Tang Yanshen: "Major General Xie Lane, good afternoon."
He guessed that Fang was going to the cafeteria for lunch, and was thinking about what excuse he could use to get closer to her and have a meal together. Suddenly, two male insects appeared outside the elevator. They were the ones sent in with Tang Yan.
This made the female soldier, who was about to press the elevator door closing button, subconsciously pause.
The two male insects didn't notice Tang Yan and just squeezed into the elevator. At this moment, the elevator suddenly sounded an overload warning. But he stood there indifferently, and it was obvious that he had no intention of leaving.
Xie Laine was standing right near the door, and it seemed that no matter from which angle, he should give way to the male insect.
Damn the rules...
Xie Laien cursed coldly in his heart, glanced at Tang Yan beside him without leaving a trace, suppressed his unwillingness, and prepared to walk out of the elevator. At this moment, his wrist was suddenly grabbed, and then a low voice sounded in his ear: "Come on, stand here."
Tang Yan pulled Xie Lane to his side, exchanged places with him, and took the initiative to stand in the elevator.
The other two male insects were getting impatient when they saw the elevator was not moving for a long time: "Who of you is going to get out?"
Tang Yan slowly put his hands into the pockets of his white coat, stood behind them, and asked with a half-smile, "How about I go out, my lords?"
The two male insects were stunned when they heard this, and were just about to attack, when they suddenly felt a sharp pain in their waists the next second, and then Tang Yan kicked out without any warning.
"boom!"
"boom!"
With just two muffled sounds, the two male insects flew out one after the other, and both fell flat on their faces, screaming in pain.
Tang Yan stood calmly in the elevator, ignoring the surprised looks of the female soldiers around him, and directly pressed the elevator door closing button.
