After being transformed into a random male beetle

Since returning from the Xiongbao Conference, Xi Yun hasn't been able to come up with a design for her wedding ring.

After putting down the materials in his hands, Xi Yun wanted to go out to find inspiration.

He stuck a worm pattern on his neck, put on his coat, and went out.

Inspiration is a magical thing. After shopping, Xi Yun went to the place that was being built under the supervision of the Archaeology Department of the Zerg Research Institute.

The architectural style here is similar to that of ancient buildings on Earth. Bricks, tiles, and wood form the main body of the complex, with upturned eaves and a graceful, airy feel.

The insects came and went, creating a lively scene.

In a daze, Xi Yun felt that what he had experienced was just a long dream, but he knew clearly that these experiences had actually existed.

He photographed the scenery he saw, unaware that he himself was also part of the scenery in the eyes of other insects.

Just as he turned the corner, Xi Yun suddenly sensed something was wrong; he seemed to hear a ticking sound, like a countdown timer.

"Bang!"

The nearby buildings exploded rapidly, sending up dust and debris that obscured the view.

Xi Yun waved his hand to brush away the dust and couldn't help but cough.

He spotted the two little females ahead; the beam above them had cracked, with only a small piece of wood holding the whole beam together. But it wouldn't be long before the beam completely broke and fell down.

"Danger! Get out of there!" Xi Yun shouted to the two female cubs.

But they were both clearly terrified by the sudden danger; their bodies froze, completely unable to process the urge to flee that their brains might have.

Seeing that the two female cubs hadn't reacted yet, Xi Yun rushed forward and grabbed one in each arm.

Just as they left their original spot, the wooden beam above broke off and fell straight down, piercing the spot where the two female cubs had just been standing.

The little female cub, held in someone's arms, saw the spot where she had just stood and burst into tears in fright.

"It's alright, it's alright, don't cry." Xi Yun quickly patted their backs, comforting the two frightened little girls.

On the other side, the female insect that had gotten separated from the little female saw the whole process of the little female being rescued, and he quickly ran over to pick up the little female.

When the little female saw her male father arrive, she ran into his arms and cried out loudly for him.

The female insect, who was holding her offspring, nodded to Xi Yun in gratitude and said, "Thank you, thank you for saving them."

Xi Yun stood up: "It's good that the little bug is alright. Remember to keep a close eye on it."

"Definitely, definitely." The female insect nodded repeatedly, then quickly left the dangerous scene with her young in her arms.

The sound of explosions continued to ring in our ears, and in the distance, flames of unknown origin were rising, their tongues of fire wantonly engulfing the buildings, the fire spreading relentlessly.

"Haha, here's a big gift for you, no need to thank me." The arrogant voice sounded particularly irritating amidst the panicked swarm of insects.

A bug that appeared out of nowhere laughed loudly and used the wall next to it to jump up and grab onto a rope hanging in the air. The rope quickly pulled upwards, and the short-haired red bug leaped onto the deck of the starship.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the insects, the starship sailed away into the distance, followed by a group of Central Star Guardian aircraft that were chasing and attacking the starship.

Many of the female insects on the ground reacted quickly and began to fight the fire, which was soon brought under control.

As the fire was gradually being extinguished, Xi Yun suddenly looked in one direction and met the gaze of Edwin, who had not yet looked away.

"Edward." Upon seeing him, Xi Yun couldn't help but feel happy and greeted him with a smile.

However, the male insect's smile seemed to frighten the female insect. Edvi stood there, his light gray eyes half-closed, his eyelashes trembling slightly, just like a little stray cat that Xi Yun had fed before the apocalypse, making him feel itchy.

"Xi Yunxiongzi," Edvi called out to the male insect that had come before him. His clear voice masked his owner's anger and embarrassment.

"Why are you here?" Xi Yun asked. "Is it because of that strange bug?"

"No, I was just passing by. The Central Star's guards will handle that insect and his gang." Edvi answered the male insect's question seriously, concealing the fact that he had followed the insect after seeing him, wondering why the insect pattern sticker was on his neck.

"You..." Xi Yun was interrupted by the female insect's voice before he could finish speaking.

"I didn't follow you from the beginning," Edvy said, revealing his true intentions.

After hearing his words clearly, Xi Yun chuckled. So the bug that had been following him was Edvi. He had thought it was some other bug.

"No, I meant to ask if you're free later? I'd like to invite you to dinner," Xi Yun finished speaking.

"I have some business to attend to at the military headquarters later," Edwin said, trying to keep his voice calm.

Xi Yun naturally noticed Edwin's embarrassment and decided not to tease him too harshly.

"Alright, I'll take you," Xi Yun suggested, a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Okay, thank you," Edvy replied naturally.

"No need for formalities, just call me by my name." Xi Yun sensed the distance in his tone and looked at him earnestly. "I hope that next time you speak, I'll hear you call me by my name, instead of using a formal address. Besides, your voice is very pleasant."

As Edvy looked into the male insect's obsidian-like eyes, he felt as if his entire insect was about to be sucked into them.

The next second, she heard her own voice replying to the male insect's request: "Okay."
