Chapter 156 You like me, right?
The water mist made the figures of the man and the insect in the bathtub a little hazy, adding a bit of ambiguity to the atmosphere.
But the female insect in my arms was not obedient and would not stop until it had to fiddle with something.
Wen Zhimo pulled Youan's hand down: "Doesn't your hand hurt? You've been moving around so much."
"It hurts, but I just want to do it."
"..."
You An seemed to be in a very happy mood, his beautiful silver eyes were clear and bright, flashing with tiny lights. He hooked his arm around Wen Zhimo's neck, his eyes fixed on him. "So, are you worried that I might be in danger?"
Wen Zhimo's eyes were calm and he uttered a low "hmm".
Wen Zhimo had no intention of hiding what happened tonight. Since the female insect wanted to know, he naturally told her.
The female insect in his arms holds an important position and is of noble birth, so she will inevitably be at the center of the struggle for power.
Once it’s on the table, you can’t just eat it whenever you want.
According to the customs of the Blue Planet people, couples will only officially enter into marriage after a long period of romantic relationship.
But after what happened tonight, Wen Zhimo discovered that the conflicts between male and female Zerg were complicated and posed a hidden danger. He wanted to establish a relationship with the female Zerg in his arms as soon as possible to avoid any disturbances or accidents in the future that would force them to stand on opposite sides of each other.
The S-level male insect is a very good protective shield, and Wen Zhimo wants to put this protective shield on the female insect.
Regardless of whether the other party needs it in the end, it is always an extra layer of protection.
What's more, they will register their marriage sooner or later.
The earlier you register, the sooner you can move in together to avoid the female insect running back and forth every time.
This also prevents him from seeing the resentful look on the female insect's face every time she leaves. Those who don't know might think that he has done something bad to her.
It's like taking advantage of others and not being responsible.
You An gently rubbed Wen Zhimo's neck, his expression infatuated and dependent: "You are so nice."
Wen Zhimo found it funny: "Really?"
Youan said "hmm": "Of course."
In fact, those who can sit in high positions are not fools, and he has naturally heard about the affairs of those noble male insects.
In reality, the Zerg's problems didn't accumulate over a day or two, and naturally, they wouldn't be solved in a day or two. Currently, the Royal Family, the Heroic Protection Society, and the Legion were in a three-way balance of power. Even if there were occasional friction, no one side would easily upset this balance.
But no matter what, Youan was naturally happy that Wen Zhimo was willing to consider and think about him.
He leaned lazily on the male insect's shoulder, as if he was tired from playing. His hands became much more obedient, and he spoke slowly about the male and female issues of the Zerg.
Wen Zhimo shouldn't have known this, but since the group of nobles at the dinner had tested him, Youan felt he needed to tell him about it, so as to avoid confusing his beloved male insect and causing him more worry.
"The Zerg race has always had more females than males, and because of pheromones and the need for mental comfort, males have always held a higher status. But back then, the conflict between males and females wasn't that acute."
"With the advent of the interstellar age, due to genetic factors, the male Zerg birth rate is decreasing, and the number is dwindling. In order to reduce chaos and alleviate the problems of female Zerg's estrus and mental disorder, the Empire has no choice but to provide male Zerg with more protection and welfare."
"Some female insects are willing to do things to please male insects in order to be appeased."
"The male insects, doted on and pampered, gradually became arrogant, foolish, and conceited, and began to abuse the female insects."
"...Following the rebellious activities of some female insects, those noble male insects who still had some sense began to sense something was amiss. Fearing that they would one day be imprisoned by the female insects, they began to take corresponding measures."
"The so-called 'Male Insect Alliance' is one of them."
Wen Zhimo was a little confused: "So those noble male insects are right to be afraid?"
You An smiled and said, "Yes, but not entirely. Male insects have a natural attraction to female insects. They also have pheromones and the ability to calm down the female insects' mental disturbances. As long as they behave themselves and don't cause trouble, many female insects will be willing to support and protect them."
Wen Zhimo didn't say anything, waiting quietly for the female insect to speak.
Youan continued, "But some male insects want to ease the conflict between males and females, while others want to continue exploiting the females and enjoying this power. The latter aren't afraid, but are lying because of desire."
Wen Zhimo nodded slightly, understanding what the female insect meant.
Power and desire are not easy to control. Once some people get involved in them, they are unwilling to let go.
"So, do you think Marquis Ymir and Marquis Emmanuel are the former or the latter?"
You An moved his body, changed his position, and asked, "What do you think?"
Wen Zhimo: "The latter?"
Youan: "Yes, but there are some differences between the two. Marquis Ymir is a bit hesitant and actually prefers to maintain a moderate attitude towards the issue of male and female, while Marquis Emmanuel is a staunch advocate for the interests of male insects."
Wen Zhimo was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the seemingly tough Marquis Ymir was actually a moderate, and the peaceful Marquis Emmanuel was the one who wanted to preserve power.
It seems that those who are truly scheming never reveal themselves.
Wen Zhimo: "Where is His Majesty?"
Youan: “The former.”
There are many Zerg forces, and most of them are female. The royal family has always had male Zerg as heirs, but they have been able to stand firm among them. There is a way for this.
Every emperor in the royal family is not an easy person to deal with, especially His Majesty Zelin, who came to power at a young age. He is ambitious, has extraordinary means, and is unpredictable.
Regardless of the purpose, His Majesty Zelin has been easing the conflicts between males and females for so many years and promoting the establishment and implementation of many female insect protection laws.
As of now, His Majesty is indeed worthy of the throne.
Wen Zhimo was not surprised when he thought of the dignified and calm Majesty at the dinner party.
You An touched Wen Zhimo's face and said, "Your Majesty, do you understand everything now?"
Wen Zhimo hummed, and was about to say something when the female insect in his arms spoke again, her tone tender and a little distressed: "It must be very hard for you to come here alone?"
He came here alone...
What do you mean?
Wen Zhimo's body suddenly stiffened, an unknown emotion flashed across his usually calm eyes, and his breathing also stopped for a moment.
Did the female insect know something?
He was stunned for a few seconds and wanted to say something, but the female insect changed the subject.
This man and this insect are so wonderful and smart, they both know when to stop.
You An remembered Cedric's question when he left the dinner party, so he looked at Wen Zhimo with his eyes moist and charming, "Your Majesty, you like me, right?"
