When Lu Yuan woke up, Rhine had already returned to its usual state.

Seeing that Rhine was alright, Lu Yuan was relieved.

After breakfast, Rhine told Lu Yuan that he was going home.

"My lord, I need to go home and see my male father and female father."

"Oh, right, you should go back. You were on the desolate planet for so long, your insects must have been very worried about you. Now that you're finally safe, your insects must be very happy. You should go back and see them so they can rest assured."

After saying that, Lu Yuan continued, looking somewhat awkward.

"Um, Rhine, when do you think would be a good time for me to visit your home?"

Lu Yuan thought that he and Rhine had been married for so long, but he had never even visited Rhine's family home, which was really inappropriate.

There was a plausible reason why I didn't visit them before.

Previously, they were unable to visit Rhine's family on the desolate planet; after finally returning to the capital planet, the case against Rhine was not yet closed, so they could not go out; now that they can finally go out, it is only natural that they should visit Rhine's family as soon as possible.

He's lured away such a wonderful Rhine, so he'd better behave himself and go to his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house as soon as possible to appease them.

Hearing Lu Yuan mention his family's insect, Rhine sneered inwardly. His family's insect was indeed very happy, but not because he was alright, but because he could regain his original position, and he had become useful to the family again.

As for taking Lu Yuan home, he wasn't considering it for the time being. He knew without a doubt that the insects at home wouldn't give Lu Yuan a good look, and he couldn't bear to let Lu Yuan go to their house and be treated coldly.

"My lord, there's no rush to go to my home. Let me speak with my family first."

"Okay, whatever you say. If it doesn't have to be so fast, I'll take this time to prepare more and buy some gifts for your family so they can feel at ease leaving you with me."

Lu Yuan knew that his circumstances were not good, and that Rhine's parents would definitely not be satisfied with him. So he thought of buying some gifts to please them and then making a good impression when he visited. He didn't want Rhine to be caught between him and the house bug.

However, Lu Yuan oversimplified things, completely relying on the methods he used before his transmigration. He didn't know that in the Zerg, his rank was the original sin, and the Rhine's father and mother didn't even want to look at him.

Rhine and Lu Yuan spent some more time being affectionate. When they saw that it was almost time, Rhine went out and flew the aircraft towards the Hatton family's manor.

The Hatton family is one of the oldest noble families in the empire. Their ancestors were once very wealthy, so although their power has been declining in recent years and their financial situation has become increasingly difficult, the manor where the clan insects live is still magnificent and shows no signs of decline.

The manor was large, nestled among mountains, and the scenery was beautiful. However, Rhine was indifferent to these familiar sights and went straight to the study.

Inside the study sat a middle-aged male insect with a handsome appearance but cloudy eyes. This was Rhine's father and the current patriarch of the Hatton family.

"Father," Rhine bowed to the male insect.

"Hmm, I heard from your female father that you actually married yourself off to a D-class male insect."

"Yes."

"What's so special about that male insect? Or does it possess some noble bloodline despite its low rank?"

"No, he's just an ordinary male insect from a desolate planet."

Rhine's father lowered his eyelids, seemingly having no further interest in speaking to Rhine.

"Alright, then you don't have many more decades to live. While you're still healthy, do your best to help the insects in your family grow and repay the kindness of your family in raising you. Go and see your female father."

"Yes."

After leaving the study, Rhein first went to his father's wife's place to greet her.

Back then, his female father carefully selected his male father after weighing all the conditions, initially aiming for the position of female ruler.

In the Zerg, the status of the Queen and the Servant is not the same. Although both serve and provide for the male Zerg, the Queen is equivalent to another master Zerg in the household and has the right to use the household's property. The male Zerg cannot abandon or humiliate her at will.

The female servants are more like property in the household; the male insects can do whatever they want to them, while at the same time they are subject to the female ruler's discipline.

After a struggle, his father was still outmaneuvered and failed to seize the position of queen. All his prepared escape routes were cut off, and he could only become a servant in resentment.

His female father originally had a promising future in the military, but after becoming a female servant, he was forced by the female ruler to resign from the military and stay at home to serve the male master and raise the cubs. He had no chance to get ahead in the outside world.

However, his female father was not easy to bully. He used his last remaining power to create a major political scandal for the female ruler.

The female ruler was originally a promising member of parliament, on the verge of promotion. However, once the scandal broke, this stain stuck with him. Although he did not receive any substantial punishment in the end, his political career was completely halted.

Although he had avenged himself, the father-in-law was not completely satisfied. He still had a strong desire for the position of the queen, but the queen of the house was not someone to be trifled with. After fighting for half his life, the father-in-law still had not been able to get the position he wanted, so he placed his hopes on Rhine.

From the time Rhine was a child, his female father had always told him that he must become the queen of a high-ranking male insect.

The female ruler's attitude towards Rhine was lukewarm. After exchanging a few casual words, she sent Rhine to find her male father.

Rhine's female father was waiting for him in the room. After Rhine entered, he sat down directly opposite his female father. The two insects had the same indifferent expression on their faces.

As soon as she sat down, the female handed her a stack of documents. Rhine took them and saw that they were all information about male insects.

"Father, what do you mean by this?"

"This contains information on some A-grade male insects. Although they are all commoners and have some defects, they can accept divorced female insects as their lords. Choose one of them to be your male master; at least he can provide you with mental comfort."

Rhine felt no emotion; he was already used to it.

"Female father, I already have a male master, I will not marry any other male insect."

The female father snorted coldly.

"As your female father, I originally wanted to help you one last time, but since you insisted on courting death, I can't be bothered with you anymore."

"Your younger brother will be graduating from military academy soon. Try to arrange for him to join your Third Army Group."

"If you choose a D-grade male insect, it's questionable whether you can even live past a hundred years old. You and I are no longer reliable, so you can only rely on your younger brother. While you're still in good health, give your younger brother a good promotion."

"My father also told me to promote the insects in the house more," Rhine said calmly.

"Don't listen to your father. You only have one younger brother. You should know which is more important."
