Chapter 191 He lost face in front of the Insect King!
Just when Hines thought his son was finally thinking about the family and he wanted to have a good talk with him, Kano's next words made Hines' fatherly love vanish instantly.
"Father, Father, don't worry, even if our family really goes bankrupt, I won't look down on you. We can marry into Prince Eli's family together!"
Hines: "..."
Thank you so much!
He's really his good son!
Fortunately, he still thought of bringing him and his father along, so it wasn't a waste of his efforts to raise them.
He sighed, too lazy to say anything to Cano.
After all, it's your own child; even if you kill it, you'll still have to create another inheritor worm.
Then the time he and the male ruler could spend being affectionate with each other would be reduced.
Oh well, at least this one knows to bring cabbage home.
As for what happens in the future, that depends on Cano's fate.
Whether he can win over his wife depends on his skills...
Evening, in the palace.
Tan Chi, Letekar, and the Insect King were already seated in the restaurant, but Eli and Cano were nowhere to be seen.
The Insect King seemed to find it a bit strange as well.
He glanced at Tan Chi, who was feeding Letekar his pre-dinner dessert, and slowly asked, "Tan Chi, how much do you know about the male insects from the Reeves family?"
Tan Chi took a handkerchief and wiped Letekar's mouth before turning to look at the Insect King and saying, "The male insects of the Reeves family are quite simple-minded, which is very suitable for you, Big Brother."
The Insect King was quite surprised by Tan Chi's evaluation.
In his view, most male insects are actually quite averse to other male insects.
Even when praising someone, it's laced with barbs.
Unexpectedly, Tan Chi's words were not sarcastic at all.
The Insect King nodded thoughtfully. "So it seems you quite like this little male insect?"
Tan Chi nodded. "Hmm, not bad. This little male insect was there when I was kidnapped by the Roronoa Pirates last time. He preferred to be kidnapped with me rather than escape alone."
If it weren't for his special skills, this little male insect would have been kidnapped by the Roronoa space pirates along with him.
They might get eaten alive by those space pirates.
With that tiny mouth of his, he might not even get to spit a few times before being dragged away by the female insect over there to... you know... do... you know.
Tsk tsk...
However, it is precisely because the young male insect is simple and easy to deal with that he is more suitable for Eli.
He has a sharp tongue, can't make friends with other males, has a simple social network, and only likes to eat small males. Even if he is kept in captivity by Eli, he won't feel there's anything wrong with it.
In addition, in Reeves' household, the female insects are the ones who go out, while the male insects stay at home obediently.
Kano was already used to this model and didn't see anything wrong with Eli taking charge of external affairs.
So from any perspective, Cano is a good fit for Eli.
Upon hearing this, the Insect King finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tan Chi doesn't reject male insects, and Eli seems to like them quite a bit too; this outcome couldn't be better.
He only had two insect offspring, although the male offspring he had always been a bit temperamental and unwilling to come home to be with him and Eli.
However, now that he has a female ruler, he is not as willful as before, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that his male larvae were just not fully grown yet and were a little rebellious.
"Since you think the little male insect is good, then let your older brother spend time with him." The Insect King thought of this, then, as if remembering something, added, "I remember the insect your older brother spent time with before was called... Timothy?"
Tan Chi thought of that unlucky insect, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and then he reluctantly hummed in agreement.
The Insect King couldn't help but chuckle, "I heard from other insects that Timothy was disliked by your elder brother because he offended you?"
Tan Chi shrugged noncommittally.
He couldn't very well say that Timothy and Michele were having an affair, which was why he didn't want his older brother to be taken advantage of, could he?
Wouldn't his older brother lose face?
Especially since he and his older brother almost fell for the same sub-female, it was even more embarrassing.
His noncommittal attitude only fueled the Insect King's gossip-loving nature. "Then tell me, what is it about Timothy that you dislike? I'd like to hear the reasons..."
Tan Chi glanced at the Insect King, then poked another small piece of cake and brought it to Letekar's lips before slowly saying, "Because he put the wrong foot when he came in."
This was heard by Cano, who was about to enter the room, and he immediately withdrew his outstretched foot.
Eli, who was also hearing this, was taken aback, seeing Cano's adorable expression of not knowing which foot to step on.
With a swift movement of his long arm, he grabbed Cano and pulled him inside.
Kano: "..."
ah! ! ! !
He lost face in front of the Insect King!
But Prince Eli hugged him in front of the Insect King!
He was so excited that his little face turned rosy.
"Father, Achi, Major General, this is Kano." After putting Kano down, Letkar gave a brief introduction to the insects present.
Although Tan Chi and Letekar had already met Cano, they still had to go through the motions, so the two insects naturally nodded.
Then he saw Kano staring at the Insect King with a slightly stiff expression, his beautiful black eyes sparkling.
This was the first time he had seen the Insect King since the day he hatched.
When he was young, neither his male nor female fathers allowed him to go out. As he grew older, he learned that those banquets were awful, and his male father, as a noble imperial male, was unwilling to attend.
He naturally didn't want to either.
So until he came of age, he never saw the Insect King even once.
Now that he's face to face with him, he's become a bit stiff.
His brain was completely fried.
However, remembering the instructions his male and female fathers had given him before he came, he still spoke up and said, "Female father, I brought two potted plants with me. I hope you like them and that I will be able to marry Prince Eli!"
Insect King: "Pfft..."
He couldn't hold it in and sprayed out the honey water he was drinking.
Fortunately, Tan Chi reacted quickly and pulled Letekar into his arms, preventing the insect king from spraying him with the nectar.
Eli and Cano, who were standing nearby, were both stunned and got splashed with the nectar sprayed by the Insect King.
Eli twitched his lips, somewhat speechless, then picked up a towel from the table and wiped the stunned Kano's face before looking at the Insect King and speaking, "Father..."
The Insect King cleared his throat. "Mistake, mistake, it was my mistake. Please sit down."
He had just been wondering if this little male insect who had taken Eli was too cunning and had fooled his male offspring.
It seems he was overthinking things.
Given how excited he was when he saw him that he even got the way he addressed him, he probably isn't that cunning.
The Insect King suddenly became a little worried that the child might have been tricked into coming by the eldest brother.
