Zerg: The female warrior's male master is acting strangely!

After running into his room, Holoi ran out of the heavy wooden cabinet and immediately pulled open the door. He stood on tiptoe and took out the food from the bag one by one and put it on the cabinet.

After arranging the food, he took two steps back, gazing contentedly at the neatly arranged rows of food on the shelf, a feeling of indescribable happiness welling up inside him.

Heroie stood there blankly for a while, then suddenly realized how quiet the room was.

This room was clearly so much better than that storage room, but he still felt... empty.

Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer, turned around, pushed open the door, and ran outside.

The hallway was covered with a thick carpet, so little feet could walk on it without making a sound.

Heroie ran to the master bedroom door, which wasn't closed properly. He could hear his father moving inside, as if he had already lain down.

Holoi raised her hand and knocked on the door, her voice soft: "Father?"

"Come in."

The father's voice came from inside.

Upon receiving a response, Heroi immediately pushed open the door, nimbly slipped into the room, and ran straight to the bedside without saying a word.

The bed was a bit high, and he struggled to climb up the edge, his little feet kicking in the air several times before he finally flipped over.

Manjushri lay down on his side, watching the little rascal rush over, and raised an eyebrow: "Didn't Yi Yi say this afternoon that she wanted to sleep by herself?"

After having the robot clean the room in the afternoon, he asked his son where he wanted to sleep that night.

Heroie hesitated for a moment, but finally said she wanted to sleep in her own room.

Manjushri praised Yi Yi, saying, "Yi Yi has grown up," but only a few hours later, the little one changed her mind.

Heroie buried her face in the soft pillow, her voice muffled and a little embarrassed: "No, Father, I want to sleep with Father..."

After he finished speaking, he added, as if trying to explain something: "That room was too big..."

Actually, it was because of the emptiness that he always felt like something was missing... Anyway, he just didn't want to sleep alone.

Letting him, an insect, stay inside feels worse than that small storage room; he feels safer huddled in a corner.

Hearing the little boy's conflicted tone, Wenshu felt a warmth in his heart and reached out to tuck him in. "Alright, alright, our Yiyi is still young. If he wants to sleep with his father, then he can sleep with his father."

He reached out and patted the baby's chest, coaxing in a low voice, "Come on, Yi Yi, close your little eyes."

Heroie obediently closed her eyes, but opened them again after only two seconds, her big eyes sparkling in the darkness: "But, Father, I'm not sleepy yet."

Wenshu thought for a moment. During the day, the little one had played with building blocks for so long, and only took a short nap before running around downstairs again, just like a little rabbit participating in a race.

"Yeah?"

Wenshu deliberately dragged out the last syllable, her tone carrying a hint of intimidation, "But it's already past ten o'clock. If Yiyi doesn't go to sleep soon, she might not grow tall."

"what?"

Herroy was clearly startled by her father's words.

His big eyes were wide open, and his little mouth was agape in a round "O" shape.

Not growing taller? That won't do!

He was originally a tiny female insect. If he didn't grow tall, wouldn't he become the worst female insect?

The female father once said: "Female insects need to grow tall and strong to look good, so they can ensure their own safety, and that of other insects..."

Holoi immediately stopped moving, pursed her lips tightly, closed her eyes, and lied, "Father, I'm asleep."

Manjushri was almost amused by his blatant attempt to conceal something, but he managed to hold it back.

He continued to pat the baby gently, his voice low and soft, like humming a lullaby: "Mmm, our Yi Yi is asleep."

He patted him gently, and Holoiyi, who had been pretending to be asleep, found the father's patting so comforting, just like the mother's comforting touch...

Immediately afterwards, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and his small body gradually relaxed.

Perhaps it was Manjushri's words "you won't grow taller" that really frightened him, or perhaps the fatigue of the day finally came over him. After a while, Manjushri heard a low, even snoring sound in his ear.

Holoi's paws had unknowingly returned to their original shape. Her little paws rested gently on her father's arm, and a small part of her tail peeked out from under the blanket, the tip of which was slightly curled. Her belly rose and fell with her breath.

Manjushri lowered his head, rested his chin on the baby's head, and rubbed against the soft hair.

The snoring continued for a very long time, like a little animal that had finally found a safe haven, and he slept soundly and peacefully.

the other side.

The wind from the border carried sand and gravel, which struck the incredibly hard hull of the warship, making a soft "crackling" sound.

Heroion sat in his leather office chair, his gaze lingering dimly on the screen of the quantum computer.

Ever since he made the three requests to Yulis, he has been keeping an eye on the activity of the personal terminal...

But Yulis never replied to him.

This undoubtedly forced him to start fantasizing uncontrollably: had his request directly angered Yulis?

Or perhaps Yulis felt that he was spying on everything in the house, and then he would kill Holoiyi?

The moment these two guesses flashed into his mind, Herroyen's breath hitched.

He seemed to already see the pain on Heroi's face; his chest heaved violently, but he couldn't get enough air in.

He bent down, elbows on his knees, forehead resting on the back of his folded hands, the whole insect curled up like a silkworm pupa wrapped in a cocoon.

Never before had he felt such an eagerness to touch his baby's face;

I want to hear my little one call me "father" in a soft, sweet voice;

I wanted to reach out and rub that fluffy little head;

I wanted to hold my baby in my arms to make sure he was alright and unharmed, and hadn't been hurt by any insects.

Herroyen closed his eyes, his hands trembling slightly.

He even had the urge to leave immediately, to abandon everything here, and to take the baby away from home without a second thought.

He imagined himself rushing into that villa, picking up Yi Yi, and leaving that place forever without looking back, never letting any insects bully his little one again.

But he can't!

Herroyen suddenly opened his eyes and sat up straight.

Outside the warship, the patrol's footsteps echoed rhythmically across the ground, and in the distance, the low growls of strange beasts could be faintly heard, coming intermittently from hundreds of meters away...

The border is not yet completely secure, and the beast tide could return at any time.

The Empire's legions are still stationed here, and the lives of thousands of female soldiers are at his command.

Most importantly, he cannot abandon the insect people here.

As a marshal, the empire bestowed upon him military rank and power, but also with inescapable responsibilities.

He cannot leave the battlefield without permission because of family matters, nor can he be a bad bug who runs away at will because of "family matters" when the alien beasts are watching him.

Herroyen looked up and his gaze fell on the ceiling light, which was both dazzling and bright, illuminating his disheveled appearance clearly.

He picked up the computer again, his finger hovering over the screen for a long time before finally sighing.

He could only wait.

Once the beast tide is completely over, once the surrounding insectoid inhabitants are no longer threatened, once he can rightfully return...

Before that, he could only silently pray to the Insect God, hoping that Yi Yi could hold on, and praying that Yulis at least had a shred of conscience left!

Outside the warship, another gust of night wind, carrying sand and gravel, howled past.

Heroion closed his sore and swollen eyes. Although he was exhausted, he knew he was destined to be sleepless tonight...
