The powerful leader was tough on the outside but soft on the inside; the aloof major general fell fo

The news that Ashley, the female convict who was at the center of a recent controversy, was suddenly acquitted immediately became a trending topic.

It's unprecedented that someone could be acquitted after harming a precious male insect!

"Can anyone tell me what happened?! How can a female insect that harms a male be released without charge?!"

"Please! I demand the truth."

"I heard from the bottom of the corner that the male insect forgave Major General Ashir."

"Pfft, you're going to make me laugh to death! A male insect will forgive on its own initiative? Only an idiot would forgive an insect that hurts him! Not to mention a male insect that holds a grudge."

"If the male insect forgives me willingly, I'll eat shit while standing on my head!"

"I suspect the major general has powerful connections. If he hadn't pulled some strings, how could such a serious crime as harming a male insect have been so easily overlooked?!"

"Uh, the major general is a commoner, how could he possibly have a powerful backer! Go check it out before you start typing."

"I'm telling you this in a very quiet voice, but this matter is related to Major General Xiong Zhu."

"??"

"I hate people who only say half of what they mean and then don't say anything at all. The person upstairs, check your private messages and I promise I won't curse you."

Please, tell the children the truth!

……

The insect who claimed to know the inside story never replied in the end.

This is a classic case of taking off one's pants but not taking a dump.

Mihajlovic slammed the screen off, his face grim.

It was all Cen Li's fault that he had to lie in the treatment pod again. He didn't let Ash go willingly at all; he was forced to by Cen Li, that heartless devil!

But the father didn't care about this matter.

Duke Jolai is so biased! Is it just because Cen Li is the son of a female ruler and is a rare A-rank that he is so indulgent towards him?

Miha had completely forgotten that he was the one who caused all of this and that he was completely in the wrong. He only complained about Cen Li's lawlessness.

And that lowly female soldier.

The mere thought of Ashir made Mihajlovic grit his teeth in hatred.

Not only did he fail to get his hands on this female soldier, he also got himself into a lot of trouble.

During the family dinner, Duke Joly symbolically mentioned and reprimanded Cen Li.

"How could you hit your brother? Why can't you talk things out instead of resorting to violence? It's so damaging to brotherly harmony!"

Cen Li thought to himself, "I'm not going to be brothers with a worm with a twisted mind."

Although he was blaming Cen Li, Duke Jolai's tone was neither too harsh nor too mild, which infuriated Mihaly so much that he suffered a heart attack.

It's better not to say anything at all.

This will only make him resent Cen Li even more.

Having a high level of mental strength doesn't make you superior! You think you can just kill bugs whenever you want?!

Miha's sinister gaze kept falling on Cen Li, making it hard for Cen Li to ignore. But right now, something else caught his attention.

His gaze swept over Miha's smooth face.

Cen Li then stared at West Asia, which was not far away.

Can anyone tell him why Mihajlovic is completely unharmed?

"System, are you giving me fake medicine?"

"Didn't they say there would be a reaction on the second day of use? Look at Mihaly, he's lively and energetic, does he look like something's wrong?"

The system retorted, "Products from the Supreme God are guaranteed in quality. Host, I won't allow you to question me."

The system spoke with absolute certainty, but Cen Li stared at Xiya and thought of another possibility.

That could only mean that West Asia simply didn't follow his instructions.

It was bolder than he had imagined.

They even went so far as to deceive their superiors and subordinates.

Xi Ya noticed Cen Li's gaze and was puzzled. The other man's gaze was extremely penetrating, and he felt as if he had been stripped naked, and all his hidden thoughts were exposed.

This unease became a reality when Cen Li called him away.

They had left the Duke's mansion and returned home. Cen Li called Xiya into his room.

This is something planned in secret; the fewer insects who know about it, the better.

Closing the door, Cen Li looked sharply at Xi Ya and cut to the chase: "You didn't do what I asked you to do?"

Xiya was shocked; her neck was so stiff she couldn't turn it.

How could the powerful ruler have known?!

Why would a powerful ruler know this?

Xiya was terrified. How could the male master always know exactly what he was up to?

West Asia's performance makes the answer obvious.

"You're trying to fool me."

"Are you wondering how I knew?"

Xiya's secret was exposed, and her shoulders trembled.

He dared not imagine the consequences of the powerful ruler discovering that he had deceived him.

"I warned you not to try to deceive me."

"As for how I know, of course it's because I have my own methods."

Cen Li's gaze was cold.

Xiya, clinging to a sliver of hope, probably thought the medicine wouldn't take effect so quickly, but he didn't know that this medicine was not the same as the one he was looking for.

The system's tailor-made, potent medicine for Mihajlovic will only be more effective and faster-acting.

"My lord, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time."

"I'll take care of it tomorrow, and I promise I won't let you down again."

Xiya bent her knees and knelt down with a thud, her expression filled with fear and trepidation, constantly begging Cen Li to give her another chance.

"It's too late."

Cen Li took a half step back, dodging Xi Ya's hand as he knelt forward to grab his trouser leg.

Xiya's hand fell to the ground, her round eyes brimming with tears that seemed about to fall, as she looked at Cen Li with pleading eyes.

"A mighty ruler..."

Unfortunately, Cen Li was not soft-hearted towards him.

Originally, Cen Li only wanted to use Xi Ya and then discard her, because Xi Ya often bullied Ashier, so he didn't have a good impression of the female.

Now that he hasn't done the task entrusted to Xiya, Cen Li can't trust such a scheming female again.

Xiya saw Cen Li fumbling around on the terminal for a few moments.

The female's expression changed, and she lunged forward to try and stop Cen Li's actions.

"My lord, you wouldn't be thinking of divorcing me, would you?!"

Xiya recalled with horror that Cen Li had planned to end their partnership last time, but later changed his mind and asked him to do something.

He suddenly remembered that the powerful leader had said he would not sever ties with him "temporarily".

In other words, a powerful ruler has the right to change his mind at any time.

"That's right."

"Xiah, you are no longer my servant."

West Asia is no longer of any value to Cen Li.

Cen Li flipped the terminal screen so that Xi Ya could see the content more clearly.

It's a bit troublesome for a male insect to dissolve its marriage relationship with a female ruler, but it's extremely simple for a female to serve as a slave; all it needs to do is cross out the insect's name in the identity information column.

Xiya's eyes widened, and her face gradually turned ashen.

The name of West Asia is no longer listed in the section for female attendants.

Only the three words "Ashir" were displayed.

He was no longer Cen Li's female servant, and from then on, he had no further relationship with Cen Li.

Xiya bit her lower lip, and this time the tears really fell. Her delicate lips, which were like flower buds, turned pale and withered.

He didn't want to accept this outcome.

It wasn't that he loved Cen Li so much or couldn't bear to part with him.

Talking about "love" among the Zerg is too abstract and unrealistic.

West Asia was simply unwilling to accept it, and with it came endless fear.

The powerful lord severed ties with him so decisively. What will he say if Renzo and the others ask him about it later? Will they discover that he once betrayed them?

Just thinking about it makes him feel like the sky is falling, and he doesn't know what he'll do in the future.

Where could he go after leaving Cen Li...?

"My lord, you have abandoned me. From now on, I will be a second-marriage female insect, and I will never find a male lord again..."

Cen Li interrupted him, her tone cold: "That's not something I should be concerned about."

"Xiah, don't forget that you approached me with a purpose in the first place."

Moreover, Cen Li had never been to West Asia.

The only connection between them was the electronic documents from the marriage matching agency, and now even that connection has been severed.

Looking at Cen Li's indifferent profile, Xi Ya's heart finally died, and she collapsed to the ground in despair.
