IHNMSL Chapter 16
by Volare“I don’t want to! I don’t want to marry older brother, no means no! Whether it’s considering it for a day or a month, my answer won’t change.”
“Yao Yao—”
Chris heavily put down the teacup in her hand, unable to believe her ears.
Marrying that useless Female Bug from the Hevia family would indeed be wronging Yao, but Daina was different. They were close in age, had a close relationship since childhood, and a deep emotional foundation. Chris really couldn’t understand what reason Yao had to refuse.
Father and son were at loggerheads, neither willing to back down. The room was silent, the air almost solidifying. Finally, the other protagonist at the center of the incident took the initiative to speak out.
“Since Little Yao isn’t willing, then don’t force him.”
“That’s right, that’s right! Brother also doesn’t agree, Father, please stop worrying about it.” Yao nodded eagerly in agreement.
Yao didn’t want to argue with his long-unseen Female parent about this matter. “Father, don’t you love Yao Yao anymore?” The little Male Bug shook the Female Bug’s sturdy arm.
“What’s wrong with Daina?” Chris’s face showed displeasure. “Father only thought you were annoyed by your Male parent urging you to marry, so he wanted you to marry Daina to avoid it.”
Seeing that no result could be discussed, Chris stopped dwelling on the topic, inquired about the little Male Bug’s studies, and was soon called away by an urgent phone call.
However, Daina, like a shadow, did not leave with her but silently blocked Yao’s path.
“What’s wrong, brother?” Yao was puzzled.
“Little Yao, stay away from those unclean Bugs outside.”
“Unclean Bugs?” Yao was confused.
“If Little Yao needs a lover, brother can find a more suitable one for you. I will keep it a secret from the family.” Daina’s voice was deep.
Lover… Being reminded like this, Yao immediately understood who the unclean Bug was referring to.
“Chen Xing is not some unclean Bug at all. He’s not only my friend but also my savior. I’ll be angry if brother says that.” Yao retorted angrily.
“The debt of gratitude can be repaid by Male parent and Female parent, what does he count as? He’s just using the debt of gratitude to sweet-talk you into getting you into bed. Break off contact with him as soon as possible, Yao Yao.”
Daina didn’t believe that a Female Bug who could thrive in the Black District could be some good thing that remained untainted. Who knew if he had contracted any malignant viruses? With Yao’s shallow social experience, it was simply not suitable for him to come into contact with such complicated and dangerous Bugs.
“But brother, I’m already an adult.”
Yao could understand Daina’s worry for him, but every time he heard this kind of “it’s for your own good” argument, he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable all over.
They seemed to treat him as a doll without the ability to think, without a soul, as if it was enough for him to just follow their instructions step by step.
Yao didn’t know if “for your own good” was really good, but he was really suffocating.
Chris was always strong-willed. With Yao’s understanding of his Female parent, she would definitely not give up the idea of letting him marry Daina easily.
What should he do?
The little Male Bug, anxiously tossing and turning in bed, unsurprisingly suffered from insomnia.
In the administrative district of Floating Island Number One of the Imperial Building, Judge Aikman didn’t expect to see an acquaintance here.
“Little Yao?”
The little Male Bug sat restrained in Aikman’s office, not daring to raise his head.
“Does Little Yao have something to ask Uncle?”
Looking at Yao in front of him, Aikman was reminded of the rebellious son at home who was clamoring to transfer to Central Star to study with Yao. His own grades were terrible and he still didn’t realize it, which made his lungs hurt with anger.
“I want to apply for early termination of Male parent and Female parent’s guardianship rights. Can Uncle help me?”
“Of course, as long as you can prove that you have the ability to live independently away from your family.” Aikman replied.
The average lifespan of the Bug Clan was around 300 Star Hours. At 18 Star Hours, they reached a state of complete physical maturity, with mature glands and visible wing patterns.
However, because the number of Male Bugs was decreasing day by day, the seventh revised edition of the Male Bug Protection Law extended the guardianship age of Male Bugs for protection purposes.
Adult Male Bugs under guardianship, except for not being able to live alone outside, and having to have their guardian’s signature for dating and marriage registration, were no different from Male Bugs who were not under guardianship.
In general, very few Male Bugs would specifically apply to end their guardianship early.
“You’re not planning to secretly get married behind your two parents’ backs, are you?” Aikman teased the shy little Male Bug.
“Yeah…” Yao looked at the Female Bug expectantly, “Can you, Uncle?”
“Little Yao has someone he likes?” Aikman’s smile became a bit intriguing. Oh dear! Will and Chris are really old-fashioned, see what they’ve forced the child into.
After adulthood, Male Bugs could extract pheromones three to five times a year on average. After dilution and filtration, it was made into a colorless and odorless Spiritual Sustaining Stimulant, widely used in medical, biological science, and military fields. It was a type of rare item strictly controlled by the government, and Male Bugs could receive corresponding subsidies according to their contribution amount.
With Yao’s grade and pheromone purity, maintaining his current level of consumption was not difficult.
Aikman guided the little Male Bug to fill out the complicated application form. “According to the process, there shouldn’t be any problems after the Mind Brain approves it. I’ll send you a notice in a week.”
“Okay…”
…
On the soft green grass, a delicate and beautiful little Male Bug was pressing on top of a tall Female Bug, immaturely kissing and biting.
The Female Bug didn’t resist, just closing her eyes and letting the little Male Bug do whatever he wanted, except for occasionally letting out a few suppressed moans that she couldn’t hold back.
“Yao Yao…” Chen Xing called the little Male Bug’s name in a daze, her fingers gently stroking Yao’s rosy lips, her throat rolling, her voice hoarse.
“What’s wrong?” Yao, who was curious about the Female Bug’s glands and was seriously studying how to bite, tilted his head and touched the Female Bug’s face.
“Don’t be afraid, let me look at the tutorial…” Yao interpreted the Female Bug’s moan as discomfort and got up in a fluster.
The Female Bug’s body was already tense to the extreme under the catalysis of pheromones, every inch and every iota was intensely craving the Male Bug’s comfort.
After waiting for a long time without seeing the next step, the Female Bug realized that the little Male Bug who had been teasing her for so long had innocently run off to look up tutorials.
This… Is this something a normal Bug could do…? Chen Xing was about to call him ancestor, I’ll shut up, can I not shout randomly anymore?
After finally coaxing the little Male Bug back to continue, Yao’s face was burning red, “Then I’m really going to bite.”
That little bit of pain was like tickling to the Female Bug, Chen Xing didn’t take it seriously at all, she was almost about to take the initiative to press Yao to her neck herself.
By the time the little Male Bug retracted his small fangs that had pierced into the gland, his ears and neck were already red, as if he was drunk, dizzy and disoriented, and he even started stuttering when he spoke.
“Ugh… Your pheromones are too much, too much!” Yao whined, hugging the Female Bug’s waist.
The sweet taste was more delicious than honey dew brewed from red grapes. Yao liked it very much, the only drawback was that it made him a little Bug-drunk.
“Okay, okay, it’s all my fault.”
After everything was over, Chen Xing skillfully tidied up Yao’s clothes and touched his cheek. “I’ll take you to see the stars tonight, remember to leave the window open.”
“I also have a surprise to give Chen Xing!” Yao giggled stupidly in a daze.
“What surprise?” He was almost laughing like a little fool, Chen Xing happily teased the little Male Bug.
“Shh! It’s a secret, you can’t know…”
The mysterious little Male Bug blinked his big, bright eyes at him, repeating, “Secret, oh!”
It seemed like he was really drunk, his mind was muddled, Chen Xing chuckled softly, “Then I’ll wait for Yao Yao baby’s surprise.”
