Holding watermelon seeds in his hand, Jiang Si faced the delicate little insect that pounced on him, raised his foot, and unleashed a wisp of smoke, preparing to first slap it, then kick it.
Unexpectedly, before she could finish speaking, Agares darted out like a sharp sword, grabbed her waist with one hand, lifted her off the spot, and kicked He Yan in the chest as he lunged at her.
He Yan groaned as he was kicked away, his body arcing through the air before crashing into the lawn with a thud, creating another crater.
Jiang Si, who was hiding behind Agares, peeked out and looked at He Yan, who had been smashed into the pit. She praised her cheap ex, "Agares, you're amazing! I couldn't even kick him away with one kick!"
Agares: "..."
After praising him, Jiang Si patted her cheap ex on the shoulder: "How about you change into your military uniform, grab a shovel, and come with me to plant a couple of melons?"
Agares' dark eyes deepened. He glanced at He Yan outside, then summoned a bolt of lightning that struck He Yan, who was lying in a ditch in the lawn.
He Yan was struck by lightning, his body steaming and the smell of burning filling the air.
Ginger shreds: "..."
What's going on?
Not only did Agares kick him into the pit, but he also struck him with lightning. I don't quite understand.
After finishing his attack on He Yan, Agares turned to his wife and said, "Please wait 5 minutes!"
Jiang Si, not understanding, said "Oh" and watched her cheap ex retreat into the house and walk towards the bathroom on the first floor.
Jiang Si stood at the door waiting. Five minutes later, Agares returned, his black military uniform replaced by green work clothes.
Jiang Si looked him up and down, and it really proved the saying that as long as you have good looks and a great figure, you can be fashionable even in a burlap sack.
Look at this loose-fitting workwear, especially the green one. On her cheap ex-boyfriend, it instantly looks more upscale, like a high-end item tailor-made for him.
Jiang Si clicked her tongue, took out a shovel from her spatial button, handed it to him, and stepped out the door. Outside the manor, the trees on both sides of the road had been cut down and replaced with lemon trees, tangerine trees, and grapevines.
The vast lawn and helipad, open and wild, seemed to be beckon to Jiang Si, saying, "Come plant me, come plant me!"
Jiang Si stepped onto the lawn, while Agares followed behind her with a shovel in hand. The grapevines that had been planted in the pit last night looked wilted and dying under the sunlight, as if they could die at any moment.
Jiang Si stopped in her tracks, staring at the small grapevines. The grass beneath her feet was withering at the roots, though it was not visible to the naked eye.
A large patch of land had withered. Jiang Si casually pointed and said to Agares, "I have eight watermelon seeds here. Could you please dig up this patch of land and build it into a small dam for me? Thank you!"
For a prince who is an Imperial Marshal, fighting Zerg, battling alien beasts, piloting mechs, and training people are all routine tasks. But picking up a shovel, digging the ground, and building a small dam is a first for him.
But this didn't stump him. He clicked on the personal terminal, brought up a picture, and asked his wife, "Is it like this?"
Jiang Si looked at the picture and exclaimed, "Wow, this is exactly my daily life of farming on my reborn planet!" "Yes, just like this!"
Agares nodded: "Okay, please wait a moment!"
Jiang Si said "Oh," took out a tobacco stick, and put it on the ground. The tobacco stick automatically wrapped around to form a large stool.
Jiang Si sat down on the willow bench with her feet on the ground. Her spiritual energy poured out from her feet and burrowed into the ground. The wilted grapevines, lemon trees, apple trees, tangerine trees and so on seemed to have burrowed into a nutrient pit, becoming energetic and lush with green leaves!
Jiang Si placed the watermelon seeds on the willow stool and took out the box that Yan Qi had given her to store the seeds. There were quite a few seeds in the box.
She sometimes couldn't tell what kind of plant or fruit the seeds were just by looking at them; she would simply put the similar ones aside.
As she sorted the bracelets one by one, the color of the bracelet on her wrist changed again. Jiang Si paused her work and looked to the side. She saw He Yan, his face blackened, his body reeking of burnt food and emitting black smoke, pitifully lying next to her willow vine, blinking his wet, golden eyes: "Jiang Jiang, Agares kicked me and struck me with lightning. It hurts so much!"
Jiang Si shuddered, almost dropping the seeds in her hand. She then held them firmly, suppressed a laugh, and coughed lightly: "If you hadn't pounced on me, why would he have kicked you, why would he have struck you with lightning?"
"I like you too!" He Yan, who looked like a big piece of charcoal, pouted, revealing her white teeth, and accused him with great grievance, "I heard you got divorced, so I came over as fast as I could, afraid that you would be wronged, but you still treat me like this!"
"Jiang Jiang, tell me, in what way am I inferior to him? He has eight-pack abs, and so do I. He is a prince and marshal, commanding millions of troops, while I am an emperor, ruling the entire country!"
Ginger shreds: "..."
That makes so much sense!
Even tiny bugs can have eight-pack abs!
His charred body and bright white teeth were a bit distracting.
Seeing that Jiang Jiang remained silent, He Yan pressed on, saying, "He's so rigid, he can't even make you happy. I'm gentle, I can make you happy. You're no longer a princess here, come back with me and you'll be the empress."
"If you marry me, I will issue laws to the entire Zerg, just as Emperor Relos of the Troia Empire treated his queen. Your power as queen will be equal to mine; you can mobilize the Zerg army and issue orders on my behalf. If I treat you badly, you can overthrow me and become queen yourself!"
Ginger shreds: "..."
To become emperor myself?
To rule a country?
Managing hundreds of billions of insects—is he just bored and has nothing better to do, or is he out of his mind?
Is being free and unrestrained no longer fun, or is being a couch potato no longer appealing?
Become emperor?
Tsk tsk, that yandere little bug is definitely thinking about... well, you know.
Jiang Si pulled out another shovel from her spatial storage and tossed it next to the sickly little bug: "Stop talking nonsense and get back to digging!"
He Yan: "..."
Seeing that he didn't move and was staring blankly at the shovel, Jiang Si shook her fist and urged and threatened, "Hurry up, or I'll let Agareth strike you with lightning again!"
He Yan snapped out of his daze, plopped down on the ground like a brat: "I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to dig the ground!"
Jiang Si looked at him and began to tease him slowly: "Look at you, look at you. You just said you liked me and wanted me to be your queen, but you wouldn't even dig a hole in the ground if I asked you to. Is this your idea of liking someone?"
"Even magpies know to build nests when courting, but you just casually said a few silly words and you're telling me to go with you? Are you outrageously handsome, or just incredibly cute?"
He Yan: "..."
Seeing him throwing a tantrum and kicking the ground, Jiang Si threatened fiercely, "I'll ask you one last time, are you going to dig the ground or not? If not, get out of here! You're not welcome in my house!"
Wanting to throw a tantrum, act spoiled, and seek attention, with resentment and frustration flashing in his golden eyes, he picked up a shovel, pitifully and stubbornly asking, "Jiang Jiang, if I obediently listen to you and dig the ground, can you consider dating me first, okay?"
