D-level males reached the pinnacle of life by living off women.

Afterwards, Lu Yuan and Rhine chatted on and on until the announcement came that the security check deadline for Rhine's spaceship was approaching, and the two insects reluctantly stopped.

"Rhine, go ahead, don't miss boarding the ship," Lu Yuan said with reluctance.

"it is good."

After saying that, the two insects looked at each other for a few seconds, then exchanged a warm kiss before Rhine turned and walked into the security checkpoint.

Lu Yuan stared longingly at Rhine's retreating figure, wondering how he could already miss Rhine so soon after they parted.

Once aboard the spaceship, Rhine, sitting in his private compartment, pulled out Lu Yuan 2 and held it tightly in his arms.

……

After Rhine left, Lu Yuan, just like last time, began to experience a series of symptoms of separation anxiety in couples.

Specific symptoms include, but are not limited to, decreased appetite, poor sleep quality, and constant worry about the safety of the Rhine.

However, having learned from the previous experience, Lu Yuan's symptoms were much milder this time.

Moreover, this time Lu Yuan couldn't adjust and adapt at home like last time; the foundation was waiting for him to go to work.

So the day after Rhine left, Lu Yuan went back to work.

As soon as Lu Yuan stepped into the office and saw the mountain of documents waiting for him to process on his desk, he felt a wave of dizziness.

Taking leave is a moment of pleasure, but working overtime is a nightmare.

For a fleeting moment, Lu Yuan even considered quitting. How could he possibly handle so much work?

However, Lu Yuan was just thinking about it. His salary from the foundation was the bulk of his monthly income. Without that salary, how could he have the confidence to buy things for Rhine?

So Lu Yuan only stood there stunned for a few seconds before resignedly sitting down and starting his crazy overtime work mode, without even having time to drink water.

For the next three days, Lu Yuan worked overtime until 8 p.m. every day before going home.

The reason I chose to go home at eight o'clock is because nine o'clock every night to midnight is the fixed time for Lu Yuan and Rhine to talk, and this is something that cannot be delayed no matter what.

However, it was precisely because work occupied most of Lu Yuan's energy that he did not become hopelessly addicted to his longing for Rhine.

On the fourth day, looking at his much cleaner and tidier desk, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally finished most of his work and could finally go home on time again.

It was almost time to leave work, and Lu Yuan, who was slacking off, suddenly received a message from Brown saying that he had something to tell him and was waiting for him at his doorstep.

Lu Yuan then realized that he hadn't seen Brown in a long time. Since Rhine returned, Brown seemed to have disappeared and he didn't know where he had gone.

Lu Yuan sent Brown a message, asking him to wait a moment while he returned, and then immediately packed his things and left work.

Lu Yuan was flying home in his aircraft when he saw Brown's back in the distance as he approached his house.

Lu Yuan wanted to call out, but Brown's condition made it impossible for him to speak. Brown seemed to be covered in shadows, and there seemed to be countless vengeful spirits baring their fangs and claws behind him.

Lu Yuan swallowed hard, wondering what had happened to Brown to change him after a month apart.

Lu Yuan parked the aircraft, then carefully walked behind Brown, hesitated for a long time, and finally called out.

"Brown, what do you need me for?"

The shadows and vengeful spirits around Brown vanished instantly. He turned around, and the Brown that appeared before Lu Yuan was the Brown that Lu Yuan knew.

"Lord Lu Yuan, I have something to report to you about the silver crystal mine. There are also some follow-up matters that I need to consult you on. May I come in and talk?" Brown asked with a smile.

"Of course, come in."

……

In the living room, as Brown reported, Lu Yuan's expression went through a series of changes, from surprise to sympathy, to heartache, and finally to understanding.

Lu Yuan understood why Brown had looked so resentful just now. It turned out that the peaceful month he and Rhine had enjoyed was all thanks to Brown silently bearing the burden outside.

After Rhine finalized the sale of the silver crystal mine, he handed over all the remaining administrative work to Brown.

During this month, while Lu Yuan and Rhine were enjoying their happy time in the two-insect world, Brown was running around on Golan Star, dealing with various matters related to silver crystal mines, without getting a single day of rest.

Brown first negotiated the specific acquisition terms with the original owners of the silver crystal mines that Rhine had bought, including how to handle the personnel, finances and assets of the mines.

After negotiating with each company, Brown immediately went to handle the mine consolidation procedures. Now, all the silver crystal mines on Golan Star belong to one company, namely Rothschild Silver Crystal Mining Company, and the company's owner is naturally Lu Yuan.

Brown nearly had a mental breakdown several times while handling these matters.

As a female soldier, her knowledge base consists of how to fight to the death with enemy insects. She would never do something that requires brains and words. Her superiors are clearly forcing her into this task, making a difficult request of an insect.

Rhine had no choice. On Golan Star, Brown was the only subordinate he could trust. He could only entrust the important matter of the silver crystal mine to Brown; he wouldn't feel comfortable entrusting it to anyone else.

However, Rhine wasn't entirely unhelpful; he gave Brown the contact information for several of his investment advisors, allowing Brown to seek support from outside the investment arena.

It was thanks to this off-court support that Brown, an outsider to the field, was able to get things done relatively smoothly.

However, even though things were done well, it didn't stop Brown from harboring deep resentment.

Just then, Rhine returned to the front lines. Before leaving, he told Brown to consult Lu Yuan on company matters. Now that there was no pressure on Brown, and he was facing the more easy-going Lu Yuan, Brown couldn't help but vent some of his emotions while reporting on his work.

Listening to Brown's words, Lu Yuan found a moment and had Wally bring up two desserts for Brown.

These desserts were leftovers from Rhine's tired eating, so they were perfect for Brown to eat and to comfort his wounded little heart.

Although Lu Yuan felt great sympathy for Brown's plight, he still wanted to say "Well done" to Rhine for what he had done.

Lu Yuan felt his scalp tingle just hearing Brown describe those administrative tasks. If Rhine had to do them himself, wouldn't his and Rhine's world of two insects be completely ruined?

So Lu Yuan thought to himself, "Brown, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life, even if it means sacrificing you for the happiness of Rhine and me."

……

Faced with Brown's emotional outburst, Lu Yuan quietly acted as an emotional dumping ground. Only after Brown had finished eating both desserts and vented his emotions did Lu Yuan ask a question.

"Brown, thank you for your hard work these past few days. But as you just said, things at the mine are almost settled, right? Is there anything else you need to ask me?"

"You need to confirm whether Rothschild Silver Crystal Mines is ready to officially commence operations."
