Soon, Mikel's rice porridge was ready.

At the dining table, Mikel pushed the bowl of plain rice porridge in front of the male insect.

He looked at the male insect with anticipation: "Master, would you like to try some?"

When it came out of the pot, Mikel took a bite himself. It wasn't sweet, and it didn't seem like food that the Zerg would eat at all.

Cheng Chu put the food in his mouth, chewed it carefully a couple of times with his left teeth, and then swallowed it whole.

Ok……

How so?

You can still taste a slight sweetness, perhaps due to the insectoid seasoning; it has a faint, indescribable, strange flavor. However, compared to the previous foods that were cloyingly sweet, this is much better.

This was a rare and normal meal for Cheng Chu.

Cheng Chu gently stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon and said, "Queen, it's delicious. You made it well."

The rice porridge was cooked until soft and tender, requiring little chewing. Despite the pain in her right tooth, Cheng Chu quickly ate about half a bowl.

Mikel smiled and said, "I'm glad you enjoy the food, Your Majesty. Is there anything else you don't like?"

"Nothing has been found yet." Cheng Chu thought for a moment and then said, "Out of ten points, I'd give it eight."

Mikel and Cheng Chu were discussing how to optimize the recipe for vegetarian rice porridge in the restaurant when 0123 entered.

0123: "Your Excellency, General, good day. There are visitors at the gate. Shall we receive them?"

Cheng Chu looked up from the bowl at Mikel. "What? Not again?" she said unhappily.

The vice president of that male insect protection association who came yesterday is no good insect.

Mikel said, "My Lord, it must be Elijah who has brought me the document."

This morning, Elijah messaged me saying he had an important document that needed his signature. He would bring it over, and it was about time.

Mikel said to the male insect, "Elijah, that's my lieutenant, the one you've met, lord, do you remember him?"

Cheng Chu had indeed met Mikel's adjutant, but he hadn't spoken to him much.

Cheng Chu: "I remember."

"My lord, please enjoy your meal. I'm going to see him and will be right back." With that, Mikel took off his apron, handed it to 0133, and went out.

At the villa entrance, Mikel didn't see Elijah, but instead saw Asinar.

Asinar, dressed in a custom-made light gray suit, had lost the previous bruises and swelling on his face, leaving only faint bluish-purple marks. His knocked-out teeth had also been replaced. He waited impatiently at the door, followed by five burly bodyguards in black.

Upon seeing Mikel emerge, Asinar smirked wickedly, his lewd eyes fixed intently on Mikel.

"Mikel, I told you you'd fall into my hands sooner or later. Haha, and here it is!"

He wanted to come early in the morning, but the vice president of the male insect protection association kept delaying for some reason. Asinar couldn't wait any longer, so he came by himself.

And you know what? Mikel looks quite charming even in casual clothes, not in military uniform.

Mikel frowned and said coldly, "Lord Asinar, what brings you to my house?"

Asinar's lips curled into a strange grin, making the faint bruises on his face even more noticeable. He scoffed, "Mikel, what are you pretending for? If it weren't for your worthless lord promising to give you to me, you would already be my slave."

"Even though you're a piece of junk now, if your useless tyrant is willing to kneel down and beg me, I might be able to reduce your compensation, as long as you let me play with you for a year..."

Not only did he talk, he also leaned forward and reached out to try to pinch Mikel's chin.

Mikel dodged to the side, his eyes instantly turning cold as he swept his icy gaze over the overstepping Asinar: "You're dreaming!"

Asinar's face darkened when he failed to encounter Mikel and was embarrassed. He waved to the female insects beside him, signaling them to make their move, and then retreated a few steps to the back.

Asinar knew that Mikel wasn't one of those submissive female insects; even if her male master agreed, Mikel might not necessarily comply. So he was prepared, and the five female insects he brought today were all specially selected, highly capable fighters.

Two fists can't beat four hands. No matter how good Mikel is at fighting, he refused to believe that he couldn't be subdued.

After leaving the restaurant, Cheng Chu went to the lobby, where he watched the program on the big screen while waiting for Mikel to return.

But Mikel, who had promised to just sign his name and come back, didn't return even after ten minutes.

Did Mikel and Elijah get so engrossed in their conversation that they lost track of time?

Cheng Chu asked 0123, who was passing by, "0123, why aren't you back, Female Lord?"

0123 floated over and said, "Your Majesty, 0123 doesn't know why the General hasn't returned yet. Would you like 0123 to play the surveillance footage from the entrance?"

Cheng Chu thought for a moment, and wondered if it would be okay for him to check the security camera footage at the entrance.

He said to 0123, "Okay, 0123, play it."

0123: "Yes, Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

The next second, the situation at the doorway appeared on screen 0123.

Five black-clad female insects attacked Mikel fiercely, each one ruthless, while the red-eyed male insect stood by watching the show.

Cheng Chu's pupils contracted sharply. He stood up abruptly and rushed out, with 0123 following closely behind him.

At the villa entrance, Mikel was being entangled in a battle with five burly female insects and was gradually losing ground.

"Female Lord!"

The intense fighting at the entrance made Cheng Chu panic. Seeing a female insect behind Mikel holding a syringe, Cheng Chu couldn't help but call out to Mikel.

The male insect's sudden cry made Mikel instinctively look over.

Why did the male insect come out?

Caught off guard, Mikel was struck hard in the back by a female insect's elbow.

"Ugh!" he groaned in pain.

Mikel staggered forward a few steps, but quickly regained his balance and turned around to kick the female insect in the chest.

Mikel cried out, "My lord, you must return immediately!"

The male insect shouldn't be out at this time; Asinar clearly came prepared. Furthermore, Laureen certainly didn't tell Asinar about yesterday's events, otherwise he wouldn't have come today.

Seeing Mikel being beaten, Cheng Chu disregarded his own safety and ran straight towards Mikel.

"Female Lord!"

Before Cheng Chu could even reach Mikel, Asinar gave a signal to the two nearest female insects to make a move.

When Cheng Chu was about one meter away from Mikel, he was controlled by two female insects, one on his left and one on his right. The female insects' hands were like metal pincers, firmly binding Cheng Chu's arms, and Cheng Chu could not break free at all.
