Chapter 47 Is it possible, I'm referring to his insect quality?
Once he marries Eli, he can do whatever he wants with a mere Tan Chi.
He's nothing but a useless brat raised by the royal family, unlike a brainless male like him.
Once he takes Elijah under his control, the entire empire will be practically his.
He can take his revenge on Tan Chi however he wants!
Tan Chi had long noticed the malice in Timothy's eyes, but he seemed oblivious and continued to play the capricious royal male.
Especially after hearing Eli's words, he seemed to have been coaxed.
"Since Lord Timothy has realized his mistake, then consider this fruit as an apology to you."
He placed a box from the chair onto the table next to him. When he opened it, there were two bunches of crystal-clear grapes inside. Each grape was plump and looked delicious.
Timothy's eyes widened instantly.
Everyone knows how expensive fruit is in the empire these days.
Even though he was a noble male insect, he had never seen such good fruit.
In addition, apart from producing a general, the Garwan family did not produce many business-savvy individuals, so the Garwan family was not wealthy.
He has hardly ever eaten any natural foods.
Not to mention such good fruit.
The best things he came into contact with all came from his interactions with the eldest prince.
Every time Eli came to the palace, he would prepare honey water and some natural foods for him.
Even so, he had never seen any high-quality fruit.
But Tan Chi seemed indifferent to these fruits.
Timothy's fist hardened instantly.
On what grounds?
Even though they are both male insects, why does Tan Chi have so many good things, while he can't even get any natural food?
He's just lucky to be born into the right family; he's all brains and doesn't deserve his status at all!
If he were the royal male insect, then Eli wouldn't even be worthy of the position of insect king!
"Lord Garwan, Achi has already apologized to you. Are you still going to keep pressing this matter?"
Seeing that Timothy was still frowning, Eli assumed he was dissatisfied with the compensation and instantly lost half of his goodwill towards him.
As a future ruler, the first rule he must follow is to like his younger brother.
Even if you can't like him as much as he does, you can't be hostile towards his younger brother.
His younger brother is so good; he's the best male insect offspring in the entire empire.
Although he has a bad temper, he is kind and cares about his family. Why would any other insect not like such a good younger brother?
A male insect that doesn't like its brother is definitely not a good insect!
Timothy was surprised by Eli's words and swallowed back the complaints he had intended to make.
He had never been treated like this before, in all the time he had known Eli.
Timothy only needed to think for a moment to realize that this matter was related to Tan Chi.
He knew beforehand that Eli was quite interested in the royal family, that male.
After all, he was a male offspring born to the insect queen, and female insects have an obligation to take care of male insects.
The royal males are given special care.
Tan Chi's original mental strength level was already quite high, not to mention that he is now the only S-class male insect in the empire.
It's not surprising that Eli treated him better.
He and Eli haven't registered their marriage yet, and even for the sake of the royal family's reputation, Eli will side with Tan Chi.
He's not in a hurry, nor can he be in a hurry.
Otherwise, all our previous efforts would be in vain.
Timothy thought to himself, taking a deep breath. "Why would I keep dwelling on this? I was just in too much pain to react."
As he said this, he glanced at Tan Chi, then looked at Eli with a disappointed expression before saying, "I originally wanted to see His Highness the Crown Prince, but since... His Highness doesn't have time right now, I won't disturb you any longer..."
After saying this, Timothy had the insect take away the grapes that Tan Chi had offered as an apology, and then left without looking back.
Eli frowned, thinking about the look Timothy had given him last, and couldn't help but mutter, "Is there something wrong with his head?"
Tan Chi nodded seriously, "It's not just his brain that's the problem, his whole being is problematic."
Upon hearing this, Eli's eyes widened immediately. "I had the bug investigate his medical report before, and they didn't find any diseases. Could it be that something was hidden from him?"
Tan Chi: "..."
He glanced at Eli and suddenly felt worried about the future of the empire.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly before clearing his throat and saying, "Is it possible that I'm referring to the quality of his insects?"
Eli blinked, his gaze shifting to the direction Timothy had left in.
He paused for a moment before continuing, "According to the investigation report, Timothy has no bad habits and no prior record of abusing female insects..."
This was all information gathered by his subordinates, and he completely trusted their loyalty.
But his brother has already said it, so it can't be baseless.
So Eli racked his brains to think of any news related to Timothy before telling Tan Chi about it.
Tan Chi rested his chin on one hand, picked up the honey tea on the table, took a few more sips, and then slowly said, "He's Michele's lapdog."
Eli: "..."
He opened his mouth as if to say that when he investigated Timothy before, he didn't see any interaction between Timothy and Michele.
But since these words came from Tan Chi, he felt they were highly credible.
After all, his brother's previous behavior, in his own words, was... that of a simp.
Tan Chi's attention had been focused on Michele, so it didn't seem difficult for him to find another sycophant.
Although Tan Chi didn't know what Eli was thinking, he could tell from the changing expressions on his face that he wasn't thinking anything good.
He coughed lightly. "Brother, if you're not sure, you can have one of your men follow Timothy and see who he gives the grapes to."
Timothy didn't show up with Michele in the early stages to make his presence known, not because he didn't want to, but because he was poor.
The original owner provided research results, money, and special privileges, while Leo, the loyal dog, protected her and was always there when she was called.
Timothy simply couldn't gain a foothold in front of Michele.
So he took a different approach, directly using PUA tactics on the future heir to the royal family, getting them to register their marriage, and thus gaining the opportunity to make his face in front of Michele.
He didn't believe that Timothy had no connection with Michele before registering his marriage with Eli.
Given Michele's wide-ranging approach, Timothy's ability to become one of his most devoted admirers later on must have been due to Michele's influence on him.
It's possible that Michele was behind Timothy's blind date with Eli.
After all, he was willing to use his own younger brother to set a trap so that he could continue to enjoy the benefits the original owner had brought him in the future.
How could he possibly miss out on Timothy, a potential future partner of the Crown Prince?
