IHNMSL Chapter 25

Chapter 25: The True and False Female Consort

“Has Yao Yao really been behaving normally lately?” Hevia’s chilling and terrifying aura was unconcealed.

Chen Xing was a capable guard female bug who could come and go without a trace right under the noses of Hevia’s arranged bodyguards.

“Young Master has seemed to be in love recently.” The experienced old butler hesitated before confessing, refraining from speculating about the male bug’s private life.

“Does Daina come to see Yao often?”

“Yes, Young Master Daina is very caring towards the young master, often visiting to see if he’s adjusting to life after transferring schools…”

The butler’s voice grew softer and softer, as he could clearly feel the surrounding air freezing over.

“Good, good, good! Yao Yao, just focus on your studies, and I’ll take good care of hatching this electronic pet.”

In the twilight, after Chen Xing left Yao, he still carried an egg in his arms.

Themimic leaves rustled, on the upper restricted area of the floating island, the female bug was as agile as if she were in an unpopulated place.

The dragonfly clan’s mixed bloodline, known for its lightness and speed, combined with stealth-based talents, made it impossible for high-speed reconnaissance probes to capture even a trace of him.

However, this time, much to Chen Xing’s surprise, a persistent dark shadow followed closely behind, with ill intentions.

Chen Xing slowly gathered his wings and turned around, facing a powerful higher bug.

“What brings you here, sir?”

“Shouldn’t I be asking you that question?”

Hevia sneered, he remembered this female bug; he was the one who took care of Yao during his unauthorized departure from home.

But that didn’t give him the right to break into the young male bug’s bedroom late at night. Hevia’s attacks were fierce, not taking this low-level female bug seriously at all.

Anyone who bullied Yao Yao deserved to die.

Chen Xing’s arm ached from the impact, and he was afraid of breaking the little thing he was holding, so he was hesitant in his attacks.

He had his own difficulties. Hevia was Yao’s stepfather, and he couldn’t possibly return the blow if the male master’s father was hitting him.

During the fight, Chen Xing didn’t utter a word, taking a heavy blow on his shoulder without letting go of the package. Hevia, being perceptive, quickly noticed something was wrong.

“Sir, you can hit me all you want, I don’t care if I get hurt, but please don’t break Yao Yao’s precious thing.”

Chen Xing was tired: Beat me, beat me!

The news of his marriage with Yao hasn’t been made public yet, and he was aggrieved that he wasn’t even given a formal wedding with the little male bug. It was normal to get beaten up if the male bug’s father found out about the moonlit tryst and stealing precious jade.

If he had a cute cub like Yao Yao and some bad guy touched him, he would want to kill the person too.

In a moment of carelessness, the object wrapped in cloth in Chen Xing’s arms was pulled, and the cloth tore, revealing a round egg.

This was the upper district, tens of thousands of meters high.

Both bugs’ hearts skipped a beat. Hevia was still in shock and hadn’t recovered, Chen Xing reacted first and immediately dove down to catch the bug egg.

“Wait!”

Chen Xing made a gesture of surrender, pointing to the little thing in his arms, “Executive, can we reschedule the fight? You can punish me however you want then.”

The bionic egg was sleeping soundly, having absorbed Yao’s spiritual power, and was now emitting pheromones that were exactly like Yao’s.

Hevia was furious: “You!”

Hevia, who was usually calm and collected, lost his composure, gnashing his teeth and saying each word clearly, “What! Exactly! Did! You! Do!”

On the Star Network: Breaking news! An interstellar news flash! A serious brawl between high-level bugs has occurred in the Empire State Building floating island area of the upper district.

In the photo, the patrol ship that was affected was falling from high altitude with black smoke billowing from it.

The newscaster warned that the area has been sealed off by the police, and unrelated personnel should avoid staying in the area to avoid injury.

What kind of place was the Empire State Building? That was the closest place to the Mother Nest, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, and every tile inside was incredibly expensive, forged from the highest grade energy ore.

One wave had barely subsided when another arose. Daina’s matter hadn’t been resolved, and now another female bug with a close relationship with Yao had emerged, and they even had a bug egg.

Hevia felt that he would never be able to face Will again in this lifetime.

Judging from the dates, could it have been conceived in the few days after Yao Yao ran away from home?

Hevia glanced at the female bug’s abdomen. It was very difficult for high-level bugs to conceive offspring, and this bug egg caught him off guard.

“Yao Yao and I are in love, Mr. Hevia.” Obviously, Chen Xing’s words weren’t very convincing.

Fortunately, Hevia had calmed down by this time and was quickly thinking of remedial measures.

The look in one’s eyes when one wants to kill someone cannot be hidden.

Chen Xing could tell that Hevia was trying his best to restrain himself. If it weren’t for the sake of the bug egg, this female bug would have really wanted to end him.

Will was starting to distrust Hevia and had recently arranged for his own people to intervene in the investigation of Yao’s love life.

Hevia was trying his best to conceal the truth from Will, not daring to let him know about Yao’s marriage with Daina.

Paper couldn’t contain fire, but Hevia was determined to hide it from Will.

The little bug egg, having absorbed enough spiritual power, stirred and woke up. It wasn’t as resistant to Chen Xing as it had been at first. Under Yao’s instructions, it had to listen obediently to this female bug, or Papa would be unhappy.

Chen Xing teased the little one in his arms, while Hevia sat opposite him. For the sake of this bug egg related to Yao, he had to compromise, and the two bugs finally shook hands and made peace.

“No matter how you coaxed Yao, I can let bygones be bygones, but you have to promise me one thing.”

“What is it?” Chen Xing emphasized, “I won’t give up Yao Yao.”

“You know that Yao Yao is already married, right? Are you willing to be his lover for the rest of your life? Or do you want your child to be an illegitimate child that can’t be seen in public?”

Hevia used both threats and inducements, “As long as you do as I say, I will make Will satisfied with you and let you become Yao’s true female consort, how about it?”

It was like someone delivering a pillow when he was dozing off. Chen Xing was worried about how to satisfy Yao’s male parent, and Hevia, as someone close to the Duke, definitely knew the Grand Duke better than anyone else.

Wait a minute?!

The more Chen Xing thought about it, the more something felt wrong: …

What did he mean by letting him become Yao’s true female consort?

Wasn’t he Yao’s current female consort? Did he want him to replace himself?

Daina was the first candidate on Yao’s matching list. As long as he didn’t let go, no one could surpass him to become Yao’s female consort.

Hevia and Chris were too confident in the information provided by the research institute, so much so that they ignored an intermediate variable—Daina.

He had actually voluntarily given up the position of female consort that was within easy reach. You should know that even a duke couldn’t stop a forced match.

Chris’s calculations were all in vain. Daina didn’t want to disappoint his adoptive father, nor could he bear his anger, so he bit the bullet and tacitly agreed that he had become Yao’s female consort.

As for his reason for deceiving Hevia, it was obvious. Because of his male parent’s last wish, the abandoned him couldn’t seek revenge, let alone blame his innocent younger brother. He could only use such childish means to make Hevia angry.
