The male insect adores it! The female general, envious, begs for a kiss.

Just as Heamis was about to come out to cook dinner, she saw Gu Heng fiddling with some items on the sofa, with a large pile of express delivery boxes scattered around him.

Gu Heng happened to look up and meet Hemir's gaze. His eyes lit up, and he excitedly waved for the female insect to come over.

Heemis, puzzled, stepped forward and stopped a meter away from Gu Heng.

"What do you think of this personal computer?"

Heemis looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a silver-white quantum computer on the table.

Did the lord buy a new quantum computer?

With just one glance, Heamis could tell that this quantum computer was quite valuable, even newer than the model he had used before.

Where did the powerful ruler get so much money?

Heamis recognized the quantum computer Gu Heng was wearing on his hand; it was the Empire's most basic model, capable only of internet access.

Fragments of memories suddenly flashed through Heamis's mind, and a gloomy look settled between her brows.

He immediately pursed his thin lips into a straight line and commented, "Pretty good."

"So, do you like it?"

Heamis didn't notice the bright expectation in Gu Heng's eyes as he looked at him.

He didn't understand why the powerful ruler would ask him if he liked it or not.

"As long as the ruler likes it."

Gu Heng probably knows now that Heamis has misunderstood.

Since it's something I bought for him, it has to be something he likes.

Gu Heng smiled, "But... this is something I bought for you."

Bought for...him?

Heamis's expression gradually stiffened, and she slowly raised her eyes. "For me?"

Was the powerful ruler actually bought it for him?

Where did the powerful ruler get his money?

He uses only the cheapest products himself...

In that instant, a thousand doubts welled up in Heemis's throat.

He wanted to ask, but the words stuck in his throat.

What if he asks the question and doesn't get the answer he wants?

After a struggle, Heemis's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and her eyes stared directly at the lord.

"Is the male master going to take a new female servant?"

Gu Heng: "?"

Why did we suddenly bring this up?

His eyes were glazed over when his gaze met Heemis's subtle, cold, golden eyes.

Gu Heng slowly typed out a question mark.

What did Heami misunderstand?

"That's not true," Gu Heng immediately denied, then probed further.

Why would you ask that?

The lord's resolute answer caused Heemis to look up in surprise.

Has he misunderstood something?

"Was that female insect outside the door last time one of the male's suitors?"

Heemis lowered her eyes. "I found the business card he left in the lord's coat, and I thought the lord had accepted him."

It sounds like an explanation.

He filled in the gap.

"...I saw it by accident."

Gu Heng suddenly realized that the female insect that brought flowers to the hospital last time had indeed caused a lot of misunderstanding among the insects, and it was no wonder that Hermes would think that way.

He said seriously, "I don't have those feelings for him."

Seeing the female insect's cautious tone, Gu Heng comforted her, "It's okay if you see it, it's not something shameful anyway."

And so, as if in a dream, Heamis returned to her room with the new optical computer.

After studying it for a while, he found that it was a perfectly normal optical computer, without any listening or positioning systems installed.

Heamis's gaze was fixed on the quantum computer, and it took him a while to bring his thoughts back.

Your Majesty, are you really that comfortable with him?

He logged into his account, and a long list of his former comrades came into view. The boundaries of time seemed to be blurred at this moment, and he returned to the days when he was fighting alongside his comrades with great passion.

In an instant, the quantum computer flashed several times rapidly.

It was a message from his former adjutant.

Rhett: General, you're online! Waaah, I've been waiting so long...

Rhett: How are you now? Is it a convenient time to talk?

Rett: General, you don't know, but while you were away, Emory of the Second Army Corps became very arrogant and often suppressed our First Army Corps.

……

Messages kept popping up from the other end, as if they wanted to tell Heemis everything that had happened during this period.

Heemis's fingers twitched slightly, and after a long while, she typed only a brief message.

Heemis: Lieutenant Ray, I can never return to the Legion. You shouldn't be telling me this; I'm just a slave girl now.

Hemira: Keep up the good work, you're a bug with potential.

When Rhett saw the two messages the general sent, he was both happy and worried.

The general was very strict and rarely gave praise.

This time, the general praised him.

But Rhett's heart was heavy; the word "female slave" stung his eyes deeply.

Did he know that the general had been forcibly matched with a commoner male insect who had no mental power, and that he would be a female slave?

The once dazzling general was a female insect that even the most handsome male insect in the empire wouldn't give a second glance to.

Now they are humiliating me like this.

Rett couldn't help but ask: "Is the general good to you?"

Heamis understood that Rhee was asking about his lord.

He thought, "Is that alright?"

The powerful ruler never whipped him, nor did he ask him to do anything outrageous... which was very different from what he had expected.

Even the quantum computer he has now was given to him by the male lord.

Heemis typed and deleted what she wanted to say, but in the end it was just three simple words: "It's fine."

Hermes's words were vague, and Rhett's words were not good.

Indeed, all the male insects in the empire are the same.

How could a general possibly have a good life?!

What kind of question was that?! It must have touched a nerve with the general, whose heart was already riddled with wounds.

Rhett's lips were pressed tightly together, turning pale. He dared not imagine what his superiors had been doing these past few days, and even fabricated such a lie to avoid worrying him.

Heamis unilaterally ended the conversation.

Although he also missed the past, Heamis's eyes were dim.

He knew clearly that he would never have the chance to fight alongside his former comrades again.
