Zerg: The female warrior's male master is acting strangely!
Chapter 66 Sirland Pays a Visit
Not long after Herroyne left home, the quiet in the living room was broken by 004's announcement.
"Greetings, Master. I, Sirland, have come to visit. May I ask if you may open the door?"
Manjushri was still looking down at the thick book when he suddenly heard this unfamiliar name and paused in surprise.
He turned his head and subconsciously looked at the little one, only to see the little one resting his chin on his hands, his head nodding off, about to fall over.
Manjushri quickly grabbed him and asked, "Yiyi, is Sirland a friend of your female father?"
Unexpectedly, Heroiyi, who was originally drowsy, instantly woke up upon hearing the name.
The next second, the drowsiness on Heroy's face vanished, and her voice was filled with an indescribable tension: "It's...it's the female father's female father."
"Oh..." Manjushri nodded, pondering Holoyen's father...
Wait! Isn't that the little one's...grandmother?
Oh wait, they should call her the ancestral female here?
But now is not the time to worry about what to call it.
Manjushri immediately tensed up, thinking, "What a terrible coincidence!"
Holoyen had just stepped out when his "mother-in-law" showed up the next second!
This...this ...
Is it too late for him to contact Herroyne and ask him to come home right now?
Heroiyi, standing to the side, breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, her father-in-law wasn't home, or she would have been scolded again.
In fact, the phrase "something happened at the military" that Herroyne left behind before he left was something that Sirland did intentionally.
"Quickly," Manjushri slammed the book shut and set it aside, then said to 004, "Quickly, invite the elder... uh, I mean, senior, open the door and let them in!"
He turned and called out towards the kitchen, "001! Quickly make tea and pour water!"
After saying that, Manjushri picked up the motionless baby and strode toward the entrance.
When Heroiyi was held in his arms, her little body was tense. Wenshu looked down at him, and although he was a little puzzled, he didn't have time to ask her in detail.
After all, it would be extremely impolite for the younger generation to remain indifferent when their elders personally come to visit!
Sierland stood alone outside the door.
Originally, he had made ample preparations for a long wait, even anticipating all sorts of excuses and difficulties he might encounter, and he had mentally rehearsed his rebuttals several times...
Unexpectedly, in less than a minute, the tightly closed door was opened.
He was greeted not only by the familiar fuselage of 004, but also by a male insect dressed in light-colored loungewear—the male insect "Yulis" that he remembered as vicious and despicable.
And a... a female bug that's even rounder than the 'little male bug'?
Sierland fell silent: "?"
He stood at the doorway, a glint of light flashing in his deep, golden eyes.
To be honest, he didn't sleep a wink last night. He went through the imperial laws over and over, trying to find a loophole to take the "struggling" Heroi away. He even prepared all sorts of snacks and meat cans that the insect cubs loved at home, but in the end...
Manjushri, who was holding the baby, also fell silent: "?"
After he saw how similar Shirland's face was to Holoyen's, a question popped into his mind: He could barely understand why Holoyen, who was over fifty, looked young, or rather, he didn't quite understand it.
But why?!
Herroyen's father-in-law is also so young?
The elder in front of me looked to be in his early forties at most. He had the composure and sharp aura of someone who had long held a high position, and he was completely unrelated to the word "elderly".
Could it be that the female insect in this world is the Heavenly Child Granny?
Manjushri stood frozen at the doorway, taking several seconds to react. He quickly stepped aside, his voice trembling slightly, "Female... Father... Hello, please come in and sit down."
As he spoke, he secretly pinched the little boy's chubby arm, signaling him to quickly say hello.
But Holoi buried his head in his father's chest, hiding his face completely (because he didn't want to face Sirland, and he didn't like him coming to his house).
Because shortly after he hatched, he witnessed many scenes of 'Silland and his female father arguing incessantly'.
Although he was young and didn't understand anything at the time, he developed a dislike for Sirland whenever he saw his father being at a disadvantage in order to protect him.
"Yi Yi," Wen Shu followed behind Xierland, lowering his voice to ask the little one with concern, "What's wrong?"
Holoi didn't speak or move; her small body stiffened in her father's arms, like a little beast that had encountered its natural enemy.
A sense of worry welled up in Manjushri's heart, but he did not press further. He simply patted Manjushri's back gently with his palm.
At this moment, Sirland, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped and turned around to look at him... and the little insect with its head down and face hidden.
Manjushri felt a little uneasy under his gaze, so he could only force an awkward laugh and gesture towards the sofa a few steps away: "Please sit... sit."
Sierland nodded, walked over and had just sat down when 001 slid over at the opportune moment, holding a steaming cup of tea steadily on its mechanical arm, waiting beside him.
Clearly, this cup of tea was for him, and 001 would never have done so without the male insect's instructions.
Sierland turned his head slightly, and his nostrils twitched slightly.
He casually sniffed the aroma of tea rising from the rim of the cup, his eyes fixed straight ahead. He sniffed again, and after a few seconds, he came to a conclusion: non-toxic.
Manjushri, who was sitting quietly holding the baby, noticed that he was not drinking and thought it was not to his liking. Just as he was about to ask if he wanted to change to another drink, Sirland picked up his teacup and took a sip.
"Father."
Suddenly, Heroi spoke up, looking up and whispering, "I want to go back to my room."
The next second, Manjushri froze.
At the same time, Sirland's hand holding the cup paused slightly, and his golden eyes quickly moved over, landing precisely on Heroi's back.
Manjushri noticed that the atmosphere between them was becoming increasingly awkward, and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Please don't mind, Yi Yi is just a little shy."
Shy?
Sirland's expression turned complicated, because he found it hard to imagine that such weak words would be used to describe a female insect.
But when he looked at the baby again, his eyes held a new layer of scrutiny.
Herroy was radiating a sense of resistance, as if to say, "I don't want to be here." Sirland frowned slightly, then shifted his gaze to Yulis.
Although he didn't understand what the male insect was up to, judging from Yi Yi's current state, he obviously didn't need to worry about her.
"Father," Holoiyi persisted, looking up again to ask, "May I go back to my room?"
Just as Manjushri was wondering how to answer, he heard Sirland say, "Let Yi Yi go back to her room."
"Huh? Oh, okay, okay..." Manjushri paused for a moment, then quickly released the cub and said, "Go on, but run slowly."
Ignoring his father's instructions, Holoi slid off his father's lap and darted away as soon as his feet touched the ground.
In less than half a minute, he slipped into his room and slammed the door shut, as if there were some ferocious beast outside.
The living room fell silent again.
Manjushri sat on the sofa and for the first time felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He was unconsciously tense, though he didn't know why he was nervous. But when Sirland's deep gaze swept over him, he had only one thought: If things come to a head, we'll deal with it as they come!
However, Sirland did not make things difficult for him, because after seeing the state of Holoi and the change in Yulis from bad to mild, he had given up the idea of "putting Yulis to death".
Although this situation was indeed strange, Yulis was, after all, just a male insect from the lower class, and he had no need to, nor did he want to, get into trouble.
Sierland withdrew her gaze, but a question arose in her mind: Yulis's attitude... could it be that he has been possessed?
The next second, Sirland was speechless at his own absurd conjecture.
He picked up the cup of tea, which had cooled down, and drank it all in one gulp. Then he stood up, said, "I'm leaving now. Have a nice day," and left.
Since everything is fine for now, there is no need for him to insist on taking Yi Yi away from Heroion.
Although he and Herroyne had been exchanging harsh words for two years, it did not mean that he enjoyed provoking arguments, nor did he want to further worsen the already broken father-son relationship.
Manjushri was bewildered. What was going on?
You've only been sitting for less than five minutes, and you're already leaving?
Without a second thought, he quickly got up and followed the guest to see him off.
It wasn't until Silland boarded the large starship that he slowly came to his senses...
