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

After getting off work and returning home, Rhein handed the invitation to Lu Yuan.

"My lord, come with me to this banquet in a few days," Rhine said.

"You absolutely have to go to the banquet."

Lu Yuan spoke with obvious reluctance, showing little interest in the banquet.

Although Lu Yuan himself had never attended any banquets, he had watched movies and TV series, which featured many banquet scenes.

In Lu Yuan's mind, a banquet is all about fountains, sculptures, luxury cars, champagne towers, and lavish banquet halls.

Then a bunch of handsome men and beautiful women, dressed in ridiculously expensive formal wear, each holding a glass of champagne or red wine, gathered in twos and threes, talking about things that didn't really mean anything.

Lu Yuan felt that he would rather spend this time sitting on the sofa with Rhine in his arms, eating snacks and watching TV together.

Lu Yuan's expression amused Rhein, who couldn't help but gently pinch Lu Yuan's cheek.

Lu Yuan immediately retaliated, grabbing Rhine's hand tightly and pretending to bite it. Rhine also pretended to struggle, and the two insects started to fight.

Lu Yuan then pinned Rhine down on the sofa, pretending to be a big bad guy, and said he was going to punish Rhine. Rhine resisted a few times casually, but kept smiling.

Then the two insects hugged each other and rolled off the sofa to the floor, accidentally bumping into the coffee table and scattering the snacks on it all over the floor.

WALL-E, who was nearby, detected something on the ground and was about to come over to clean it up, but was stopped by the smart home assistant. The smart home assistant instructed WALL-E to hide to the side and recharge itself.

After they finally finished fussing, the two insects lay side by side on the ground, panting. Beneath them was a soft carpet, and Lu Yuan felt a little drowsy.

After a while, Rhine said, "My Lord, I know you don't like banquets and think they're a waste of time, but you still have to come with me to this banquet, otherwise my colleagues in the military will think you don't exist at all."

"Huh! It doesn't exist? How can a big, living worm like me just not exist???"

Lu Yuan didn't understand what Rhine meant.

After thinking it over, Rhein decided to tell Lu Yuan about Song Mo's recent actions and the rumors circulating in the military. It was better for him to tell Lu Yuan directly than for Lu Yuan to hear those things from other insects.

Although the road is long and there is little contact with the outside world, who knows what might happen?

Sure enough, Lu Yuan was furious when he heard this. What was wrong with Song Mo? Couldn't he read the room? His Rhine had already rejected him so obviously, why was he pretending to be stupid and sending such a weird gift?

And who made up that rumor? What a ridiculous and cliché plot! It says that Rhine thinks she's not good enough for Song Mo. Ugh, it's clearly that scumbag Song Mo who's not good enough for Rhine.

"I'll go to that banquet. Also, if Song Mo keeps harassing you like this, give me his contact information and I'll go find him," Lu Yuan said angrily.

"Okay." Rhine agreed with a smile. He naturally wouldn't really let Lu Yuan deal with Song Mo. He would take care of Song Mo himself. However, he was still quite pleased that Lu Yuan was so concerned about him.

Before she knew it, the day of the banquet arrived. Rhine left work early to go home and style Lu Yuan's hair.

Normally, a professional stylist would be invited to do it, but Rhine felt that some of the actions during the styling were too intimate in his eyes, and he didn't want other insects to get so close to Lu Yuan, so he decided to do it himself.

It took Rhine about an hour to get Lu Yuan dressed.

Looking at himself in the mirror, dressed in a formal suit that looked remarkably like a tuxedo, Lu Yuan felt extremely awkward. The suit was too tight, making him feel very uncomfortable moving around, his whole body feeling tense.

However, having already promised Rhine, Lu Yuan couldn't go back on his word. When the time came, the two insects boarded the flying vehicle and flew towards the manor where the banquet was being held.

Upon arriving at the destination and disembarking from the aircraft, Lu Yuan looked at the scene before him and remarked that it perfectly matched his stereotypical image of a banquet.

Fountains, sculptures, luxury cars—no, I mean luxury aircraft—a lavish banquet hall; the only difference is that the pretty girls have been replaced by handsome men.

Rhine took Lu Yuan's hand and walked into the banquet hall. As soon as they entered, all the insects in the hall looked at them.

Rhine didn't react to the stares and calmly continued walking inside with Lu Yuan in her arms. Lu Yuan, on the other hand, was a little uncomfortable with being the center of attention.

Before long, insects kept coming up to chat with Rhine, while Lu Yuan quietly stood beside Rhine like a smiling doll, nodding and smiling when Rhine introduced him.

When there were no more insects in front of Rhine, Lu Yuan leaned close to Rhine's ear and whispered something.

I'm hungry.

"Then let's go find something to eat."

The two insects held hands and came to the area where the food was displayed. Lu Yuan picked up a piece of food that looked a lot like a pie, took a bite, and then shook it.

It's so sweet, but this should be Rhine's preferred level of sweetness.

"My lord, what's wrong?" Noticing Lu Yuan's unusual behavior, Rhine leaned closer and asked in a low voice.

"This stuff is so sweet, but it should be your kind of flavor. Would you like to try it?"

"it is good."

Rhine didn't go for a new one, but instead took another bite from the spot where Lu Yuan had taken a bite, savored it carefully, and nodded repeatedly.

"It's good, quite delicious, with a very sweet and refreshing taste."

Sweet! Lu Yuan thought it wasn't sweet, it was cloyingly sweet, but whatever, he had already accepted the fact that his wife might be the reincarnation of a black bear spirit.

Lu Yuan and Rhein fed each other to each other as if nothing was amiss, while the other insects at the banquet watched their intimate actions intentionally or unintentionally.

After observing how the two insects interacted, the insects at the banquet silently crossed out the rumor circulating in the military.

They initially believed the rumor, since no matter how you looked at it, it seemed more reasonable for an A-grade female insect and an S-grade male insect to have a romantic entanglement.

But after seeing how intimate Rhine and that D-class male insect were, no insect with eyes would believe that the D-class male insect was just a decoy.

Lu Yuan unconsciously ate quite a lot. After finally stopping, he felt a bit full and wanted to take a walk in the garden to digest his food. Just then, some insects came to talk to Rhine, so Lu Yuan went to the garden first.

Having finally managed to get rid of the insect in front of her, Rhine was about to go to the garden to find Lu Yuan when another insect blocked her way.

Rhine looked up and then bowed.

"Your Highness, Eighth Prince."

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan took a walk around the garden, then found a bench to sit down and wait for Rhine.

But after waiting for a long time, Rhine still hadn't arrived. Just as Lu Yuan was about to get up and return to the banquet hall, he noticed a bug walking towards him from behind.

Thinking it was Rhine, Lu Yuan turned around with a smile, but then his smile vanished instantly.

Indeed, an insect came from behind him, but it was a male insect, a male insect named Song Mo.
