Major General, a Male Zerg has been found on the battlefield!!

Ryan agreed to help the young male zerg primarily because he couldn’t stand male zergs like Qi Lun who were like nouveau riche. Secondly, he wanted to give He Qin some face so that when the young male zerg chose a profession in the future, he could join Ryan’s male zerg faction.

Among female zergs, there are factions led by several major legions, and although the number of male zergs isn’t large, they’re also divided into two or three factions.

There’s an Earth saying that suits this situation well: as soon as the number exceeds two people, small groups will emerge.

In the Empire, with hundreds of male zergs, it’s quite normal for two or three factions to arise.

The zerg society values male zergs, who are adept at governing countries, while female zergs excel in warfare.

The position of Chief Executive Officer, overseeing the affairs of millions in the Empire, is contested by the male zergs of three major factions in elections held every ten years, with this year being an election year.

Ryan is a member of one of these major male zerg factions, and the leader he pledges allegiance to currently needs intelligent, powerful male zergs like He Qin to join them.

If He Qin were to choose one of the other two factions, they would face a formidable enemy.

Such male zergs can only stand on their side, which is why Ryan immediately agreed to help He Qin without hesitation.

“This plaque is truly a treasure.” The male zerg held a finely crafted jade plaque in his hand, observing it through a clear magnifying glass.

Afraid that the plaque might accidentally be broken, the male zerg instructed the female zerg to cover both the table and the floor with thick blankets before taking the plaque out of the box.

“Ryan, are you really going to give this thing to that ignorant Qi Lun?” The male zerg placed the jade plaque back in its original position, deeply saddened at the thought of such an exquisite item ending up in Qi Family.

The male zerg of Qi Family only collects rare and exotic treasures from various places out of prestige, but lacks true appreciation for these treasures.

“Yun Teng, this is what I told you about—the small male zerg from Earth gave this to me. He said it’s called jadeite. Once this thing is presented to Qi Lun, wouldn’t he hand over the female zerg willingly?” Ryan pushed up his glasses and looked at the male zerg across from him, his eyes gleaming.

Named Yun Teng, this male zerg is a member of the same faction as Ryan and also the Empire’s finest appraiser.

When the young male zerg brought out this plaque that day, he seemed reluctant, indicating it’s likely a highly valuable item.

But Ryan isn’t quite knowledgeable about extraterrestrial items, so he had to rely on his friend, who is an expert in appraising.

“Now that even this guy approves of it, it’s certain that Qi Lun, that nouveau riche, will be completely convinced to hand over the female zerg.”

“Hey, does that kid still have anything of similar quality? Even if it’s slightly inferior, I don’t care about the price; I’m willing to pay any amount.” The material of this plaque is unseen in the central star system, and he hasn’t seen it on other planets either.

In Yun Teng’s eyes, who respects treasures, he’s willing to use his entire fortune to acquire it.

Such a treasure is truly wasted ending up in Qi Family.

“Once you handle this for me, I’ll take you to see He Qin. Wouldn’t it be better to ask him directly?” Ryan tucked the box under his arm, as the infatuated male zerg was completely focused on the plaque and couldn’t pay attention to him.

Based on the young male zerg’s reaction that day, it seems there’s probably only one such item, but that doesn’t affect his plan.

As long as he smooth-talks, it depends on the other party’s judgment.

“Absolutely, absolutely.” Isn’t it just using this thing to exchange for a female servant of Qi Family? With his reputation as an Empire appraiser, it’s easy to impress Qi Lun and get the female zerg.

Not to mention, in Qi Lun’s eyes, the life of a female zerg simply can’t compare to his collection.

Originally, Ryan planned to casually take out a medium-quality treasure from his home and let Yun Teng deceive Qi Lun.

However, He Qin insisted on using this jade plaque that he had carried with him for twenty years to trap Qi Lun.

“I’ll leave this matter to you. Qi Lun will return with the starship tonight. It’s best to persuade him not to return to Qi Family after disembarking the starship, but to come directly to you; otherwise, things will get more complicated.”

“Got it, got it. Give me the thing, and you go busy yourself.”

Anxiously taking the wooden box, he waved his hand to urge his friend to leave. Yun Teng now just wanted to spend some time alone with this treasure before handing it over.

“It’s a pity, such a pity…”

In the quiet room, the male zerg reverently looked at the box in his hand, unable to stop murmuring softly.

He Qin’s home…

In the household Major General Rhys, who handles all external affairs for He Qin, he was currently in the kitchen preparing a high-calorie Earth dessert for his male lord.

Last night, as the male zerg slept, he kept murmuring in his dreams about wanting to eat desserts, his voice loud enough to wake Rhys from his sleep.

Since the young male zerg desired something sweet so much, how could Rhys, as his female lord, not take it to heart? Unable to sleep, he had spent the time searching through a pile of recipes for Earth desserts using the light-brain.

The general was dressed in a pure black home uniform that matched his silver hair, making it even more radiant. With his hands crossed, he stood in front of the brightly lit appliances, though his eyes were fixed on the clock on the table.

As the illuminated machine emitted a ‘ding,’ he removed a mold from it.

Is this a cheesecake? Do male zergs normally eat cakes?

The smooth cake was quite elastic; when placed on the table, it even bounced a couple of times.

“What are you doing?”

The voice of the male zerg after maturity was much deeper than when he was on Earth.

As someone who had an intimate relationship with the male zerg, Rhys was always caught off guard whenever the male zerg’s voice suddenly sounded.

“Would you like to try it?” Rhys took a golden-edged porcelain plate from the cabinet beside him, transferring the cheesecake from the mold onto the plate, eagerly watching the male zerg.

If Rhys’s favorite thing was his male lord’s deep voice, then what He Qin found most difficult to resist was Rhys’s golden eyes, which openly displayed feelings of grievance, anticipation, and more.

He Qin had always liked snacks and cakes like a child even while on Earth. Even when he couldn’t leave the barracks, his group of brothers would bring some back from outside when they went on a mission.

His favorite dessert was cheesecake, which he used to eat as a child beside the orphanage where he lived.

The last time he had eaten cheesecake seemed to be about two months ago.

“It’s delicious.” He Qin touched the back of the female zerg’s hand. Although it couldn’t compare to his favorite cake shop, it was still very good.

Indeed, upon hearing the male zerg’s praise, Rhys couldn’t hide his joy on his face. What excited him even more was the physical contact with the male zerg.

He Qin had observed over the days spent with the major general that, compared to intimacy in bed, tthefemale zerg seemed to prefer certain physical contacts like patting the head, rubbing the back, or touching hands.

He Qin believed that the major general was a female zerg who had a miserable childhood and needed to be praised more, so he learned to express his appreciation in this way.

“Male lord, is your jade plaque very important?” Seeing that the male zerg’s mood was good at this moment, Rhys cautiously asked.

When the male zerg left Earth, he carried very little luggage. Besides his precious military uniform, Rhys could guess that this plaque he always carried close to him was also very important to the male zerg.

But because of the incident with the female father, the male zerg unexpectedly lost his beloved possession.

A qualified female lord would not have caused such trouble for the male lord.

Thinking of this, Rhys’s sense of guilt surged once again, and he even dared not meet the eyes of the male zerg.

“That plaque, in fact, I have carried it with me for twenty years.” He Qin’s character was straightforward; he would not play the role of a melodramatic hero, as if he were shouldering all the burdens himself.

Since the item has already been given away, can’t he still complain to his ‘wife’?

“Are you interested in hearing my story?”

“I would be honored.”

He Qin walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and settled into the soft leather sofa, casually picking up a cushion and hugging it to his chest.

At that time, following the advice of the female zerg was indeed correct; placing such a sofa in this position, lying here every day when the sunlight fell, drinking a cup of hot tea and eating a piece of dessert, made life perfect.

However, he couldn’t ignore the Major General Rhys sitting next to him, maintaining a certain distance with his spine straight, seemingly on guard. He Qin couldn’t help but find it amusing, chuckling to himself where the Major General Rhys couldn’t see.

“Actually, I grew up in an orphanage until I was fourteen. According to the orphanage director, he found me next to a garbage dump.”

“That day, he was only going out to escort an adopted orphan and passed by an alley, where he heard the crying of a baby. He approached and found me, wrapped only in a shirt.”

“The director informed the local police about my situation, but they couldn’t find my parents, so they brought me to the orphanage.”

“I stayed there for fourteen years.”

As time passed, Earth was attacked by saranians, and the director died in the war while protecting the children in the orphanage.

The male lord’s emotions were almost palpable, and Rhys could feel his current melancholy.

Like a father figure, the human who occupied a significant part of the male lord’s childhood memories had now completely disappeared from his world.

The male lord must be very sad, right?

Quietly approaching He Qin, Rhys boldly offered a hug. With the posture of an elder comforting a child, he gently patted the male zerg’s back.

In Rhys’s memory, when he was very sad after being bullied by household servants as a child, his female father would comfort him like this.

“The plaque I gave away was the only token I carried with me back then.”

He Qin stabilized his emotions for a moment, gently pushing away the female zerg who was hugging him tightly, wanting to convey with a firm gaze that things weren’t as dramatic as they seemed.

Life and death are predetermined; he had seen too many brothers die in front of him on the battlefield. He just regretted a bit that during his rebellious youth, he had run away to join the army without looking back.

There was no chance to go back and see; the director, such a kind person, must have forgiven him long ago.

“Isn’t that plaque the only clue to finding out about your origins?” Rhys widened his eyes in surprise.

The male lord actually gave such an important thing to the Qi family for him?

“It was mine and still is. At that time, the most valuable thing I had from head to toe was that plaque.”

The female zerg inadvertently tightened his grip on his arm, causing a pain that furrowed He Qin’s brow. Seeing this, Rhys knew he had hurt the male lord again and quickly released his hand.

Military females are naturally very strong, and coupled with various training in the military, their explosive power is unmatched by male zergs.

Such powerful explosiveness often inadvertently hurts male zergs. Last time, during an intimate moment, Rhys accidentally pushed He Qin against the bed headboard with force.

Afterwards, He Qin’s head swelled up quite a bit, and Rhys felt heartbroken applying ointment to it.

He Qin had always wanted to find his female father and male father.

Indeed, that plaque was the only clue, but compared to living beings, the item held little value in He Qin’s eyes.

“But…”

“There are no ‘buts.’ If this plaque can help rescue your female father from the Qi family, then it’s worth it.”

In He Qin’s view, not only him but also his female father deserved rare respect.

In the sunlight, the male lord shone brightly. Rhys had a premonition that his male lord would surely bring fresh thoughts and changes to this outdated society someday.
