Upon hearing the news that Mikel was going to work, Cheng Chu was somewhat incredulous: "So soon?"

He looked at Mikel, his right hand gently touching her still-flat stomach, and said with some concern, "The baby's only a month old. Isn't it too dangerous for you to go to work?"

The main reason was the nature of Mikel's work; although it wasn't exactly going to the battlefield, Cheng Chu was still very worried.

Mikel didn't understand where the male's worries came from, but that didn't stop him from enjoying the male's concern. He laughed and said, "Master, don't worry, everything will be alright. The female's physical condition isn't that fragile. Even if I were sent to the front lines right now, I could handle it."

To everyone's surprise, Cheng Chu panicked when he heard Mikel say that. He leaned forward and raised his right hand to cover Mikel's mouth: "Don't...don't say things like that, you're not going to the front lines!"

It would be best if there were never any wars, so that Mikel would never have to go to the battlefield.

"Okay, okay~" Mikel couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. He leaned back against the sofa and grabbed the male insect's hand that was reaching out to cover his mouth. He said, "I'm sorry, I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore."

Seeing Mikel's nonchalant attitude, Cheng Chu felt a little discouraged. He sat up straight and explained, "It's not that I don't want you to go to work. I'm just... I'm just worried about you."

He paused for a moment, then looked up into Mikel's blue eyes. His dark eyes were filled with an unyielding worry, and Mikel felt a sharp pang in her heart, as if struck by something.

Seeing the male insect's serious expression, Mikel instantly wiped the smile off his face.

He heard the male insect continue, "I'm scared. What if something happens to you and the baby? What will I do? I'm scared. Will you be exhausted from all those training missions in the legion? Will another female insect come looking for you to fight? I'm also scared. When will you have to go to the battlefield too?"

Cheng Chu recounted his anxieties to Mikel.

He remembered what Elijah had said before: Mikel's first stomachache was because he had been sparring with a female soldier. At the time, Mikel didn't take it seriously, didn't go to the medical room, and didn't tell him when he got home.

Cheng Chu discreetly observed Mikel's expression and asked anxiously, "Wife, will you find me useless, always overthinking things?"

Mikel forced a smile, meeting the male insect's black eyes: "How could that be? I know, I know everything."

He assured the male insect in a very serious tone, "Master, I will not let anything happen to myself or the baby, I promise."

Cheng Chu made a demand: "Then you can't fight with other female soldiers."

Mikel replied, "Okay, I promise I won't fight with any other female soldiers."

Cheng Chu, taking advantage of the situation, said, "If you're not feeling well, go to the medical room. When you get home, tell me."

Mikel smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go to the medical room if I feel a little unwell, and I'll let you know when I get home."

Cheng Chu was satisfied that everything had been responded to. He leaned in and kissed Mikel on the cheek, praising, "That's a good boy!"

Mikel was both amused and exasperated by the male insect's childish behavior. He patted the male insect's head as it approached, and looking at its smiling face, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

Whether it was due to pregnancy or the lack of a nap, Mikel felt rather sleepy. Nestled in the male insect's embrace, inhaling its scent, he slowly drifted off to sleep.

As darkness fell outside, the main lights in the hall were off, with only a dim nightlight illuminating the space.

The blonde female insect was sleeping on the sofa, covered with a light-colored blanket, while the tall male insect squatted beside her, guarding her.

After an unknown amount of time, Mikel regained consciousness and woke up. He felt enveloped by the male insect's spiritual energy, and his whole body felt extremely comfortable.

Cheng Chu was squatting down, looking down, and whispering something to the worm egg in Mikel's stomach, but Mikel couldn't hear it very clearly.

He assumed the male insect was speaking unclearly and softly, which was why he hadn't understood it, and didn't think of anything else.

Cheng Chu was speaking earnestly and didn't notice that Mikel had already woken up.

Mikel suddenly spoke up, asking curiously, "Master, what were you saying to the baby? It's still a very small egg, it can't understand."

Startled by Mikel's sudden question, Cheng Chu immediately felt guilty and replied, "This is a secret between me and the baby, I can't tell you."

To distract Mikel, he quickly changed the subject, saying, "Besides, I'm doing prenatal education. If I talk to the baby a lot, it will remember my voice, and it will be close to me after it's born. I read about it in 'The Female Insect's Pregnancy Guide'."

Mikel, unsuspecting, casually replied, "Is that so?"

Cheng Chu nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes."

Seeing Mikel propping himself up on the sofa, Cheng Chu quickly lifted the blanket covering Mikel and helped him sit up.

"My lord, what time is it? How long have I been asleep?"

Cheng Chu told him, "It's 9:30 p.m., you've probably slept for two hours."

Realizing it was getting late, he asked again, "Honey, are you hungry?"

Mikel placed his feet on the carpet, pinched the space between his eyebrows, and said calmly, "Hmm, a little."

Cheng Chu immediately called 0123: "0123, get ready, dinner is ready."

All the lights in the hall were turned on, and 0123 quickly appeared: "Yes, Your Majesty, 0123 has prepared dinner. Please proceed to the dining room for your meal."

Cheng Chu took Mikel's arm and helped him up. She said, "Let's go, honey, it's time for dinner."

"it is good."

…………

Ever since Arungus dug up the saplings, he'd suspected that Mikel had deliberately moved yesterday to avoid him.

Otherwise, knowing they were coming, they wouldn't have moved out earlier or later, but instead moved out yesterday.

No matter how much he pressed the adjutant, he refused to tell him where Lord Chengchu's new home was.

Mikel assumed that since they had moved and blocked his communications, he wouldn't be able to find them.

Innocent!

According to the StarNet report, Lord Cheng Chu moved into the Nine Stars Villa yesterday, and the report also included a picture of Lord Cheng Chu looking out through a porthole.

The photo was clearly taken from a hidden angle, but that's okay, as long as the news is true.

Arungus, who was initially furious about Mikel's move, laughed again when he saw the news.

Is it the Jiuxingye Villa Complex?

He will definitely find a way to get in for Lord Chengchu's sake.

No male insect can accept that its female has such a past; Lord Chengchu is certainly still kept in the dark by Mikel.

If he were to tell Lord Chengchu about Mikel's father-in-law, he would definitely divorce Mikel...
