Who understands? The aloof female ruler always flirts without even realizing it.

(Good job reviewing this, I'm out of ideas.)

……

The wife in his arms had delicate features but looked weary; her long eyelashes were wet with tears and trembled slightly with unease.

Gently stroke the female insect's slightly swollen eyelids with your fingertips.

"This is really bad..."

Karandal shook his head helplessly, looking annoyed: "It's my fault for not letting you enjoy yourself."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you still feeling unwell?"

He asked in a low voice, his voice filled with obvious concern, and began to comb the female insect's sweaty, disheveled hair.

She found a more comfortable position in the master's arms.

Obedient, like a cat that has folded its claws.

"I'm fine."

I stayed up all night waiting for Shen Yan to come home, and then I was busy until now, so my voice inevitably sounded a little tired.

A hint of heartache flashed in Xiongzi's eyes.

The female insect lowered her head and gently rubbed her nose against Karandel's forehead, a tender gesture that made her unconsciously curl the corners of her lips into a smile.

"I won't bother you anymore, go and get some rest..."

The air purifier in the corner of the room worked silently and quickly dispelled all the lingering odors, filling the air with a light and elegant aroma of fragrance once again.

He gently pressed his cheek against the warm chest of his master, the steady and powerful heartbeat penetrating his skin, striking his eardrums, and also striking the high walls of defense he had once built in his heart.

In that simple moment, feeling the other person's steady heartbeat, smelling his unique scent around my nose, an indescribable warmth suddenly surged through my body, even making my fingertips slightly numb.

He was too assertive, too independent, and untamed to the core, destined to be unable to become a docile and perfect queen in the traditional sense.

But now...

It was the mighty Lord who first entered his life, which was on the verge of extinction; it was the mighty Lord who personally pulled him out of the abyss of despair; it was the mighty Lord who taught him what it means to cherish and understand.

This soul from another world rebuilt a world with a gentleness and tolerance that he could not comprehend.

If the other party now wants to take back this favor...

A dark, almost obsessive glint flashed in Karandal's eyes.

Not allowed.

You chose me first...

He took a deep breath, as if trying to completely integrate the essence of this soul into his bones and blood.

"My Lord..." he called softly, his voice unusually gentle.

"Hmm?" Shen Yan responded, her fingers still gently combing through his hair.

Karandal didn't continue speaking, but simply snuggled closer into the male insect's embrace. This silent gesture spoke volumes, bringing a gentle smile to Shen Yan's eyes.

"Go to sleep," she whispered in his ear, her fingertips gently stroking his sweaty blue hair.

They embraced, exhaustion washing over them like a tide. He pulled the female insect into his arms, adopting a possessive posture. Karandel unconsciously snuggled closer, a small gesture of pure dependence that made Shen Yan's lips curl into a smile.

……

I slept exceptionally soundly, and when I woke up, the afterglow of the setting sun was already filtering through the curtains, casting a warm golden glow on the bedding.

To his surprise, the female insect was still fast asleep in his arms. This usually self-disciplined and strict general woke up later than him for the first time ever.

He didn't get up, but just quietly gazed at the sleeping face of the female insect in his arms. In his relaxed state, he lost his usual sharpness, his long eyelashes cast soft shadows on his cheeks, and his usually tightly pursed lips were slightly parted. His breathing was soft and even, revealing a charming and innocent air.

Her eyes and brows were filled with a soft, moist glow, which softened even the curves of her features.

His gaze slowly lingered on the female insect's smooth skin, finally settling on the white nape of her neck, where a faint tooth mark was hidden, like an unspoken whisper.

A satisfied smile appeared in his eyes.

He felt like a dog, liking to leave his mark on everything, and the mark on the back of Karandal's neck was undoubtedly his most satisfying work.

Seemingly sensing his focused gaze, Karandal stirred slightly in his sleep, unconsciously exposing the back of his neck more completely to his gaze.

This subconscious action pleased Shen Yan, who lowered his head and placed a very light kiss on the teeth marks.

"mine."

He announced it with a breathy voice, his tone filled with a satisfied tenderness.

The female insect seemed to hear these words in her sleep, and the corners of her lips turned up slightly.

Shen Yan watched like that until the sun completely sank below the horizon and twilight gradually enveloped the dormitory. He carefully adjusted his position, pulling Kalandel closer to him, deciding to continue this rare peaceful sleep with the female insect.

The moment I closed my eyes, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind.

There's one more thing I forgot to mention.

With barely a whisper, she turned to the side and reached for the terminal on the bedside table. The screen glowed faintly in the dimly lit bedroom, and she quickly typed a message and sent it.

Almost immediately, there was a reply.

The device vibrated slightly, and a cute "OK" emoji popped up on the screen, along with a short message:

"Don't worry, it's all arranged!"

Receiving a satisfactory reply, Shen Yan smiled slightly, switched the terminal back to silent mode, and gently placed it back in its original position.

He lay back down, his gaze returning to the sleeping woman's profile.

Perhaps the slight noise disturbed the light sleeper, Karandel, who unconsciously frowned, made a muffled nasal sound, pressed his body closer to the heat source beside him, and unconsciously placed his right hand on his waist, as if to confirm Shen Yan's presence.
