Chapter 21 Zerg World 21 Don’t you want Ryan to become...
"What do you want from me?"
In the elegant and quiet restaurant box, Chu Sicheng picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip, then raised his eyes to look at the female insect sitting opposite him, who was looking at him with a complicated expression.
But the female insect didn't answer his question. Instead, she stared at his earlobe and asked, "You... have earrings?"
"Um?"
Chu Sicheng reached out and touched the earring on his earlobe. His fair and round earlobe was slightly powdered, and for a moment, it was even more eye-catching than the diamond on it.
Chu Sicheng nodded and gave Frederick a casual smile: "Yeah, I did."
“…You wouldn’t do something like this before.”
"What did you say?"
Chu Sicheng didn't hear clearly what Frederick was mumbling, but the latter didn't know whether it was intentional or for some other reason, he didn't intend to repeat it. He just smiled stiffly at Chu Sicheng, and then changed the subject:
"Are you hungry? This restaurant has some delicious signature dishes. Would you like to try them?"
Friedrich turned the order plate to Chu Sicheng,
"Especially that cream of corn soup, it should be very appealing to you."
As he spoke, he carefully observed Chu Sicheng's reaction.
“…”
Chu Sicheng looked at the dishes circled by the female insect on the tablet, raised his eyes and glanced at Frederick.
"How about it, do you want to try it?"
Frederick asked cautiously, with a slight tentative tone in his voice, like a female monarch who had been away from home for a long time, and always felt an awkward sense of strangeness when facing the male master whom she had not seen for a long time, so she tried her best to regain the familiar feeling between the two insects.
It’s a pity that Chu Sicheng didn’t give him the chance to get closer.
The order plate was thrown back onto the table. Chu Sicheng leaned back in his chair and directly refused:
"I'm not hungry. If you have any urgent matters, please tell me now. I have other things to deal with later."
In the warm yellow light, the male insect raised his eyes and looked at Frederick. His blue-gray eyes were still clean and clear, as if they could accommodate everything.
However, at this moment, Frederick could not find his own shadow in it.
But obviously, all of that should be his!
Frederick's eyes were dark, but his voice was still gentle. If you listened carefully, there seemed to be a hint of grievance hidden in his voice that was not easy for insects to detect.
"Have you been busy lately?"
"Since coming to Imperial Star, you seem to have a good relationship with Saxon."
Frederick's gaze slid down along Chu Sicheng's eyes and landed on the eye-catching earring.
"But when we were on Garbage Planet, didn't you say I was your only good friend?"
“???”
Chu Sicheng put on a face like an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
This guy must have inhaled too much fake pheromones, and his brain and face have been thrown away.
Why did you start reminiscing about the past with him?
He's my only good friend...Are you blaming him?
Chu Sicheng pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly, then, under Frederick's hopeful gaze, he packed up his things and stood up.
"If that's all you asked me to come here to talk about, then we have nothing to talk about."
In fact, from Friedrich's series of abnormal behaviors, Chu Sicheng could more or less guess that the female insect was most likely awakening the memory in the original text, or in other words, the Friedrich who loved Ryan as his life in the finale was reborn.
That's why the female insect stayed away from Ferro, who was trying to sow discord between him and Ryan, as soon as she woke up. After sorting out the timeline, she immediately came to find Ryan, who had lived with her for decades in her memory but was now standing on the opposite side.
He wanted to win Ryan back, simply because in his memory, Frederick had always been the dominant one in the relationship between the two insects.
The longer Ryan was humble in front of him, the more superior and dictatorial he was in front of Ryan. This led to Frederick's first reaction after seeing Chu Sicheng's version of Ryan not to apologize, but to blame.
He accused the other party of getting so close to his mortal enemy.
They also blamed the other party for not keeping the promise between the two insects.
He looked as if it was a matter of course, just like when he was on the garbage planet, turning a blind eye to Ryan's call for help, letting the male insect be sentenced to death, and never thinking of visiting the male insect during that time. Even after the male insect saved himself, he joined forces with Ferro to push him into another abyss, as if it was not him, Frederick.
Chu Sicheng knew that if he returned these accusations to the female insect, facing the reborn version of Friedrich, it would increase the other party's heartache value to a certain extent, but it would definitely not be much.
Because according to the original text, the protagonist who tortured Ryan to death has a different way of thinking from ordinary insects. When facing the accusations of the male insect, he feels guilty, but he will most likely think that this is a sign that Ryan still loves him and cares about him.
After all, in the original text, at the end of the plot, Friedrich once said the golden sentence "Being angry means he still cares."
Therefore, in order to prevent the female insect from having any weird illusions and to increase the heart-wrenching value, Chu Sicheng didn't want to say a word to the other party. He was even unwilling to perform physical torture on Frederick.
Because he was afraid that if he slapped the female insect, she would lick his hand.
Chu Sicheng tapped the table with his fingertips and smiled politely at Frederick who had stood up in panic with him.
"Also, if General Friedrich only comes to me to talk nonsense like this, then please don't request a meeting with me in the future."
[Ding! The protagonist's masochistic value increases by 10%.]
"After all, it takes me a second to click reject."
[Ding! The protagonist's masochism value increases by 20%!]
As the insect-pleasing system notification sounded, the expression on the face of the female insect opposite Chu Sicheng became more and more ferocious.
"So, what you're saying is that you don't even want to spend a second with me right now, and that's why you hate me that much?!"
Frederick couldn't understand why the whole world had changed when he opened his eyes after he just slept.
The engagement that originally belonged to Alex inexplicably fell on his head, and Ryan, who was supposed to be with him, now hates him so much that he even stays with Alex all day without his knowledge!
Is this right? !
Is this okay? !
Friedrich couldn't accept it.
Eager to change the current situation, he walked quickly to Chu Sicheng's side and blocked the door before he opened it to leave.
"Are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you going to find Saxon?!"
No, I'm planning to consult your father to see if the doctor didn't hold you properly when you were born, causing you to fall headfirst and develop this obsessive love-brained personality.
Force others to have a love brain for you.
Chu Sicheng was amused by Frederick's questioning tone, which sounded like the queen's, but he was still very professional. Faced with the perfect opportunity to torture his heart, he naturally could not give up at all.
So, Chu Sicheng nodded without hesitation, "Yes, we have an appointment to have lunch together at noon, so please make way and don't waste my time."
"Have I wasted your time again?"
Hearing Chu Sicheng's light tone, Frederick directly pulled off the door handle. In his haste, he had forgotten to be careful and gentle with the male insect. The image of the male insect and Alex together that automatically emerged in his mind as the male insect spoke made him lose all his sanity.
The golden handle in his hand was thrown to the ground fiercely. Frederick's dark eyes were filled with anger.
"I'm not hungry, and I just made an appointment with Saxon to have dinner together. What? Are you going to lose your appetite just because of me?!"
As the door handle was pulled off and the slightly opened door cracked, the female insect's angry and suppressed voice came out.
"Mingming, the bug you should be with the most is me, and the bug you should like is also me!"
"Ryan, tell me, what will it take for you to come back to me? I beg you, please tell me, okay?"
Frederick took a step forward and stretched out his hand to grab the male insect's hand, but the next second, he froze in place because of the gun muzzle in the male insect's hand pointing at him.
"You didn't think I would meet you without any preparation, did you? I'm sorry, I don't trust you that much yet."
The beautiful male insect shook the gun in his hand, his red lips slightly curled, and his smile was filled with a hint of innocent cruelty.
"Whether it's now or in the past as you mentioned."
“!!!”
Hearing this, Friedrich's pupils shone in disbelief. "You...what do you mean?"
"Can't you hear it?"
Chu Sicheng frowned in annoyance, as if he was disgusted with the stupidity of the female insect in front of him.
"What I mean is that I don't trust you now or ever, and of course, I don't want you."
He Chu Sicheng didn't want to.
Ryan, who was dragged into the punishment room by the female insect in despair, didn't want to do it even more.
"So, don't talk about starting over. I've never been to you, and don't even imagine that I would, because it's too dirty there, so even getting a millimeter closer is out of the question."
Chu Sicheng turned his wrist, and the muzzle of the gun moved up and down to indicate the distance between the two insects. His contemptuous eyes were like those of a clown.
"I hate it too."
“…”
Frederick felt that his mental strength was on the verge of collapse. He tried hard to calm himself down, but the insect patterns that kept appearing on his neck made it impossible for him to calm down.
"And Saxony?"
Friedrich panted and said hoarsely, "Isn't he dirty?"
"You don't know, after marrying Elio, he was once tied to a dog leash, wearing only a-"
"Bang!"
A gunshot interrupted Friedrich's malicious slander.
Chu Sicheng lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the pale female insect who fell to the ground after being shot in the thigh. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and his pair of blue-gray eyes were full of indifference towards the other party.
"Don't forget, it's you, Frederick, who's engaged to Elio now."
"Moreover," Chu Sicheng turned the gun in his hand and looked at the rising heart-breaking value on the task panel. His slightly lowered eyes were filled with boiling excitement. When he spoke again, it was like shooting a bullet into Frederick's heart.
"I just don't think Alex is dirty. Even if you tell me that, I still don't think so."
Through the door panel, the male insect's words, like a confession, passed through the crack in the door and into the ears of the two insects standing at the door.
Alex suppressed the corners of his mouth that were constantly trying to rise, and his fingertips kept stroking the empty gun bag on his waist. Then he turned his head to look at the male insect next to him with a dark and stiff expression, and coughed lightly and said:
"What should I do? I don't seem to have any reason to cooperate with you now."
"How could that be!"
Ferro stared at the crack in the door in front of him, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly looked up at Alex, his cold eyes like a poisonous snake hiding in the depths of the jungle, waiting to give its prey a fatal blow.
Then Alex heard him say:
"Don't you want Ryan to quickly metamorphose into an S-class male insect?"
