Chapter 31 When the king says no, he actually means yes. ...
Shen An carried her on his back, falling behind the group, so no one heard him say that.
Shi Wei remained silent, feeling a slight heat on his back. She had indeed heard that ears were sensitive areas for certain animals, and that her ears were also very sensitive, and that His Majesty liked to kiss them there.
But I digress. While it was wrong of her to touch his ear, even if we take a step back, wasn't he also right?
How can it react so strongly after just two touches?
Why is it that everyone else doesn't have ears on their heads, but he does?
Shi Wei felt increasingly justified as she thought about it, and said with dissatisfaction, "I only touched you twice. Aren't you and Bai Jiao your partners? How can you react to other men?"
Shi Wei attempted to educate him using traditional male virtues.
Shen An, being a native who had never learned such lofty things as male virtue, said seriously, "She and I are not partners. A beastman Alpha can only have one partner in his life, and she is a Beta, so she can sleep with males or females."
"Huh?" Shi Wei was stunned. It wasn't that she knew Betas could do that, but Bai Jiao's combat strength was actually Beta?
“She actually wants to sleep with you too,” the big guy said, “but you’re an Omega, and neither of you has sex. She thinks you might not be open to other methods…”
"Alright, alright, stop talking." Shi Wei quickly told him to shut up. If he kept talking, she couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't have some other ideas.
"Although I don't have two **, I can definitely satisfy you—if you don't like Bai Xiao, you can be with me..." The big guy with cute furry ears said lewd things, but it sounded very sincere.
"Is this all you orcs have in your heads?!" Shi Wei glanced at his genitals, somewhat speechless.
Shen An asked, puzzled, "What's the difference between sex drive and appetite?"
“I’m serious. We beastmen, once we choose a partner, we only have one partner for life. Even if you die, I will not have another partner.”
Shi Wei's heart skipped a beat.
There was another reason for her hesitation towards Sklag II—
She is not sensitive to pheromones and has almost no estrus cycle, so it is very likely that she cannot be fully marked, which means that they cannot go all the way.
Shi Wei knew that he must have met countless outstanding Omegas in his long life, but was she just the right one for him?
Whether it's liking or loving, for AOs, it's all an illusion and a dream until they meet their destined one.
She did indeed like Sklag II; in every respect, he was a very, very good man.
But if she could only be a passerby in his life, she would rather not pass by at all.
Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Shen An didn't know what was wrong with her, but he felt that the wind in the forest had become much cooler.
Both of them fell silent.
"I will not be your partner." Much later, he heard the girl say this: "Liking someone is mutual, and I don't have those feelings for you."
How cruel! Such a sincere confession, and you're not even moved?
The burly orc was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you like that prince?"
Shi Wei was silent for a moment. She remembered those sea-blue eyes and said softly, "I like them."
She loves the sea.
Although the ocean is vast and boundless, and although there are often raging waves, the waves always gently caress her.
She likes it.
She lowered her eyes slightly.
Shen An sighed. In that case, he had no choice but to hand her over.
They didn't understand what the mercenaries needed to do with the girl. Was it to threaten the prince?
Would those high-ranking pure-blooded nobles pay a price for a girl?
He touched his ring, which contained a signal jammer.
Shen An didn't continue chatting with her. He carried her on his back, walking through the mountains and forests, the group trekking along the path.
Shi Wei looked at the buildings before her; half of the city gate's watchtower had been destroyed, and the outer military structures had also been damaged.
"This is—" She twitched the corner of her mouth. There were only a few Manra soldiers outside the city. She was disguised as a feline beastman and was kept under strict control. She was brought into the city openly, only a few hundred meters away from the soldiers.
"The capital." The tall orc looked at the familiar totem on the tallest building and murmured.
This is the royal city of the orcs, and the capital of successive dynasties was established here.
Bai Xiao's voice rang out, his tone dismissive: "What is that the Empire is building, Wooden City? Ha—"
On the map of the Manra Empire, YN1 is just an insignificant planet on the border, but its so-called capital, Wooden City, has never been recognized by the orcs.
In the hearts of orcs, there is only this place as their royal capital.
Shi Wei roughly understood that although King Sklag II had come in person, Beast King Shenta claimed to be ill—although he was indeed very old, he was not yet terminally ill, but he had not taken the initiative to meet with King Sklag II.
The orcs sent an invitation, but given His Majesty's personality, he would never come here on his own initiative, so he simply ignored it.
A mere planetary king is not worth his attention.
She sighed. This is how the conflict arose: the orcs wanted independence, while the empire wanted to take over quickly.
Previously, due to interference from magnetic storm particles, Star YN1 was almost completely isolated from the world. Bai Xu, the executive officer of Mucheng, was ostracized by several major beast clans, and the Shen clan openly challenged the executive officer's position.
Bai Xu had endured humiliation and hardship for many years, thinking he would spend his life on this small planet until he died. But fate had other plans; the magnetic storm particles were cleared away by the meteorite, and the Empire sent troops to garrison the planet.
He felt he was capable again.
Therefore, they joined forces with the Tengshe clan to suppress the Shen clan, established manufacturing plants to develop resources, and attempted to make a fortune.
But how could the orcs possibly genuinely cooperate with him?
Everyone has different blood flowing in their veins. Orcs are not just muscle-bound, simple-minded fools. Bai Xu was tricked by the Tengshe clan. The manufacturing plant was actually controlled by the Bai siblings.
This intelligence had already been delivered to His Majesty, but no one paid any attention to it—in the face of an absolute disparity in military strength, there was no need to reason.
Just like the dilapidated outer city we just saw, Similan can be bombed at will.
However, the inner city remained intact, which suggests that His Majesty and his people were truly unsure of their position.
They dared not push her too far, lest these orcs, driven to desperation, kill her.
After entering the capital, the signal from the positioning chip was still not detected, which means that these people had a jammer.
Shi Wei now regrets not having installed more chips. She should have installed the ProPlus+ version of the locator. The security bureau said that the device could ignore all jammers, but she was still hoping to escape, so she refused and only installed the basic version.
Damn, if she gets back alive, she'll definitely install that super version.
Shi Wei rested her chin on her hands, watching several catgirls draped in golden veils dance. They were beautiful, but she was a prisoner.
Shen An and the Bai siblings are incredibly audacious. Just a few days ago, Simanan turned the capital upside down, and the three of them dared to bring her into the palace tonight.
Her current identity is—a cat-like beastman picked up by Crown Prince Shen An, who has come to pay homage to the Emperor.
The old emperor was really old, and his eyes were cloudy. Shi Wei felt that at his age, he probably couldn't even recognize people anymore. She didn't bow, but just stood there with her neck stiff.
Shen An stood beside her and sighed, "At least pretend to be something you're not."
"Why should I pretend? Even His Majesty doesn't want me to bow, so why should you?" She said with a sour face, her two fluffy cat ears making her look like a kitten with its fur standing on end.
"Shen An, why are you making such a fuss?" Bai Xiao rolled his eyes at Shen An, making no attempt to hide his contempt. "The old emperor is too old to control you."
Shen An smiled but didn't say anything.
The Bai siblings did not bow. Shi Wei looked around at the beastmen. There were all kinds of beastmen here, but none of them thought anything was wrong with her.
When someone from the government goes missing, the Similan go to great lengths to find them, and they don't suspect anything at all?
Are they really that united? That's a bit tricky.
The banquet proceeded as usual. Although it looked simple and lacked the extravagance of the nobles in the capital, it was still considered a grand affair.
Shi Wei was also given a few cups of fruit wine by Bai Jiao. She had a low alcohol tolerance and got drunk quickly. She clung to Bai Jiao like a fool and wouldn't let go, insisting that Bai Jiao hold her.
The beautiful older sister was soft and fragrant, and as he gently rubbed against her chest, he felt incredibly happy.
There was probably no happier prisoner in the world than her.
Bai Xiao watched with envy, his golden vertical pupils fixed on Shi Wei, trying to pull her into his arms.
Shi Wei kicked him. Even though she was drunk, she clearly remembered that this handsome guy was a snake in disguise.
They even eat people!
As soon as Bai Jiao let go, she ran behind Shen An to hide.
Bai Xiao was so angry he wanted to beat her up.
Shen An picked her up and let her sit on his lap, touching her face: "Do you want to rest?"
By this time, the banquet was coming to an end. The beastmen didn't care about etiquette, and many men and women were embracing each other, so they didn't stand out.
Shi Wei looked around, then at him, her face flushed, and shook her head.
She smiled much more often than when she was sober, and kept giving him a sweet smile.
Then they grabbed his head with both hands.
Shen An dodged twice, but couldn't resist her relentless will to achieve her goal, so he had no choice but to give in.
Shi Wei started pinching his ears, touching and rubbing them, starting from the base of the ear and moving all the way to the tip, then pinching the tip again.
Her actions were no different from when she petted His Majesty's pet Leo, but Leo was a purebred wolf, while the one she was holding was a half-orc—an Alpha at that.
"Stop touching me." Shen An's voice was hoarse as he suppressed the urge to pull her into his arms.
Shi Wei didn't care about him; saying no meant she wanted it.
She happily pinched Shen An's ear, while Bai Xiao across from her was extremely jealous, pouring himself pot after pot of wine.
Bai Jiao found it amusing, took out her personal terminal, snapped a few photos, and sent them to the mercenaries, indicating that the hostages had been captured and they were waiting for the mercenaries to receive them.
Shen An, shirtless, finally couldn't hold back any longer. He grabbed her slender waist, his large hands holding her body captive, and pressed his other hand against the back of her head, kissing her.
Shi Wei only smelled a faint scent of grass and trees, and then heard the sound of something being broken.
Bai Xiao, who was sitting opposite them, finally couldn't stand it anymore. He flipped the table, grabbed his tail, and lashed it at Shen An.
Their posture surprised onlookers.
Bai Jiao shouted loudly, "Bai Xiao!"
But no one paid any attention to her. Shen An looked big, but he was actually agile. After dodging the attack, he stuffed Shi Wei into the servant's hands and then fought with the Black-tailed Snake Man.
Meanwhile, at Commander Kijo's residence.
The atmosphere was extremely oppressive. Similan was filled with hostility, staring at the map in deep thought, with Cyril standing beside him. The two brothers had searched everywhere they could think of, but they still didn't know where the orcs had hidden Shi Wei.
King Sklag II is holding a video conference and has already mobilized troops from a nearby military base.
"I'll give you two more days. If the Security Bureau still can't find anyone, then arrest everyone and interrogate them one by one."
The Emperor's voice was icy cold. Lu Qi also wanted to jump up and down. What were these brain-dead orcs doing? Why did they have to rob Shi Wei of all people?
Shi Wei was missing for a few days, and he was scolded for a few days.
Damn it, once we catch the culprit, I'm going to interrogate him myself.
