No place has suffered more attacks than the main planet. Although there weren't many casualties, the damage and losses they caused were enormous.

Jing Chen shook his head. He wasn't afraid; no day could be more terrifying than the past.

Moreover… Jing Chen cautiously sized up the person in front of him, and besides, with His Majesty by his side, he wasn’t afraid at all.

Wan Ge patted his head again, still showering him with praise.

…

…

While Wan Ge was taking a bath, she suddenly heard Ruan Ruan's voice, which startled her. Ruan Ruan had never appeared at this time before.

Ruan Ruan told her that Cais had gone to find Jing Chen.

Wan Ge said it was okay, and that she wasn't in a hurry or afraid. To be honest, she was actually quite looking forward to seeing Jing Chen's next move.

She wanted to know if Cais could brainwash Jingchen? Would Jingchen believe him?

…

When Jingchen returned to her bedroom and lay down on the bed, she did feel a little tired. Too much had happened today.

But this kind of exhaustion reveals his happiness, which is different from his usual work on Anetan.

On Anetan, that level of work wasn't actually tiring for him; what was truly exhausting was the monotonous, repetitive work day after day. That kind of life left him physically and mentally drained.

As she thought about it, she recalled the scene of her taking the initiative to hug His Majesty today, and her ears couldn't help but turn red again.

Suddenly a voice interrupted his thoughts: "Still thinking about the Queen?"

“It’s you.” Jing Chen sat up abruptly and saw Cais, who had entered his room at some point and was sitting in a chair.

"You like Her Majesty the Queen, don't you?" Cais slowly poured himself a cup of tea, his tone calm as if stating a fact.

"What...what does this have to do with you?" Jing Chen blushed and awkwardly looked away.

Caius's smile deepened, and he replied, "So, do you think it has anything to do with me?"

Caius glanced back at him, his gaze as if Jingchen had intervened in something.

He could immediately see through Jing Chen's somewhat guilty expression. Now that he could clearly see the boy's entire face, his panic and unease were fully displayed on his face.

Jingchen used to hide his emotions very well, largely thanks to his habit of frequently lowering his head and covering his face with his bangs. Others couldn't see his expression, let alone care what he was thinking.

"You know very well, don't you? The Queen could never like you, and she's just using you now." Caius's tone was relatively calm, but every word seemed incredibly serious.

“It’s none of your business.” Jing Chen clenched his hands. Yes… he had actually thought about it before. He had considered that His Majesty could not possibly like him.

As for whether or not he would be used, he didn't know, but he didn't care. As long as he could stay by His Majesty's side, what did it matter if His Majesty used him?

"You're willing to be used? I see. Then pretend I said nothing." After saying this, Caius stood up and left without a second thought.

He thought that this would be enough; if he said too much, Jingchen would become suspicious of his motives. As long as he said nothing and aroused suspicion in the other party's mind, everything would be easy.

Jing Chen didn't say another word and let the other person leave.
