Chapter 121 Sweet and Sour



"When do I need to go to the front line of Zone Negative One?" Jiang Zheyu looked up at Xingdi.

The Star Emperor looked at her with gentle and refined manner: "No need to rush, wait until the insect swarm recedes before going."

"An insect swarm?" Jiang Zheyu was somewhat bewildered again.

She remembered that in the novel, there was a major cosmic crisis when the Zerg gave birth to another Zerg queen, and then the Zerg conquered all the planets in the universe.

Jiang Zheyu didn't know how this major crisis was resolved, because during this crisis, the female lead was falling in love with other beastmen, escaping together, and their true feelings were revealed in adversity. It was also the other villains who created the conditions for entering the female lead's heart.

All she knew was that the major crisis was over, so why was there still a swarm of insects?

Judging from the Star Emperor's tone, this insect swarm seems to be quite common.

“Every three months, a major insect swarm and two minor insect swarms will break out in Zone 2 of the Negative Zone,” Su Yan explained to her. “That’s why those military orcs live there permanently.”

Because the insect swarms there are continuous, orcs are needed to hold the position there for a long time.

"I see." Jiang Zheyu understood.

As expected, the novel only shows the female protagonist's world, and doesn't touch on any other areas.

“There are still two months until the insect swarm is over. During this time, Sister Zheyu, you can stay in the palace. We will send people to protect you.” Jin Yu’s gentle and clear voice rang out from the side. “This time we will do our best to protect you.”

Jiang Zheyu didn't refuse: "Okay, but you can send a few mentally injured orcs to treat me every day, so that I won't be too bored while I'm in the palace."

"How many beastmen can Sister Zheyu heal in a day?" Jin Yu's golden eyes were extremely calm, as if he was simply asking how many beastmen should be sent to Jiang Zheyu for healing each day.

Jiang Zheyu can actually cure dozens of patients a day without any problem.

"Five will do, no need for too many," Jiang Zheyu said with a smile.

"Okay." Jin Yu smiled gently.

The young man had a deep and handsome face, with golden eyes like a warm sun, and a head of golden, tousled hair, making him look like a warm, big sun. When he smiled, it felt like you were surrounded by warmth.

Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment. No wonder the female lead would seek out his wife, Jin Yu, whenever she was unhappy. He seemed like a very warm and comforting man.

After the matter was settled, Jiang Zheyu went to the palace where she had lived before she was captured, and Su Yan naturally moved into the palace with her.

Before Jin Yu escorted them to the palace gate, he politely said goodbye and left.

"Princess Zheyu, you're finally back! It's so good to see you're alright." Butler Xiao Luo stood beside her in the palace, her pink eyes glistening with joy as she looked at Jiang Zheyu.

"Mm." Jiang Zheyu smiled as well.

She looked at the boy's pink hair and his well-behaved appearance, and was about to reach out and pat his head.

Xiao Luo lowered his eyes, which held a mixture of expectation and hidden affection, with utmost secrecy. He should have looked away, but he really didn't want to.

He and Princess Zheyu could never be together, and he shouldn't even dream of becoming her beast husband. But even if he couldn't be her beast husband, he could still savor this little bit of tenderness.

The day he learned that Princess Zheyu had been captured by space pirates, Xiao Luo's thoughts were in turmoil for a long time. His mind kept recalling Princess Zheyu's gentle and kind smile, the soft warmth of her hand holding his, the mental comfort that made his heart race, and the pure love in Princess Zheyu's eyes for him.

He was already in a state of turmoil.

He was just a butler; he should only do his job and not develop feelings for his master.

But the expected gentle touch of Princess Zheyu's palm on his head never came.

Xiao Luo looked up and gazed over.

Jiang Zheyu's hand was caught in mid-air by Su Yan. She looked at Su Yan with some surprise and paused slightly: "Wh-what's wrong?"

Those red eyes looked down at her.

“He’s a hundred-year-old orc, he just looks young, he’s not a child, don’t touch him.” Su Yan’s calm voice rang out.

Jiang Zheyu silently withdrew his hand.

"You, you're over a hundred years old?" Jiang Zheyu looked at Xiao Luo in surprise.

You can't tell at all! He looks even younger and more youthful than Su Yan, like a teenager.

Who knew that he would be comparable to Si Yu, who was over a hundred years old?

Xiao Luo's cheeks instantly turned bright red. Commander Su's icy gaze fell on him, making his thoughts even more obvious.

“Yes, Xiao Luo is one hundred and thirty-five years old.” Xiao Luo responded softly, “Because he is a small long-haired rabbit beastman, not only is his beast form small, but his human form is also not very tall, so he looks very young.”

Jiang Zheyu had always doted on him like a younger brother.

I never expected that the other person was a whole generation older than her.

She even treated him like a child, trying to pat his head.

Jiang Zheyu's cheeks also turned a little red: "Oh, oh, is that so? I'm sorry."

“Princess Zheyu doesn’t need to apologize.” Xiao Luo gently raised her eyes to look at her, then quickly lowered her head again to hide the bitterness in her eyes.

"Let's go buy flowers." Before Jiang Zheyu could notice the rabbit beastman's emotions, Su Yan grabbed Jiang Zheyu's hand and walked outside.

Jiang Zheyu was preoccupied with buying flowers and didn't notice the rabbit beastman's low spirits.

"Xiao Luo, we're going out to play now." Jiang Zheyu didn't forget to turn around and wave goodbye to Xiao Luo. "We'll come back later."

Xiao Luo raised her head and nodded slightly in response: "Yes, Your Highness Zheyu, have a good time."

Because Su Yan was with her, Jin Yu did not send any extra guards to follow her.

Above the hovercar.

"Ayan, when are you going to set off again to wipe out that isolated island where beast slaves livestream?" Jiang Zheyu lay in Su Yan's arms, eating sour fruit while looking at Su Yan's smooth jawline.

"No rush, I'll tell you before I leave." Su Yan's slender fingers gently twirled the girl's hair.

The hair slipped through my fingers, leaving a slippery, cool sensation and a slight itch, as if my heart was itching too.

Su Yan saw the juice on the girl's lips, so he gently lowered his head and brushed his lips against the sour juice and sweet red lips.

It's sweet and sour and delicious.

He pressed the girl's head down, his chest throbbing with love, and he lowered his head to kiss the girl in his arms tenderly.

Jiang Zheyu hadn't finished eating the fruit when he was swept away by the suffocatingly loving kiss.

Ambiguous sounds filled the air.

It makes one blush and their heart race.

Su Yan longed to meld his Yu Yu into his body every moment, so that the two of them would never be separated.
