Chapter 91 Hot Search
This piece of news was released at midnight yesterday. As it contained the sensitive word "Major General Ludwig's fiancé", after fermenting overnight, it has now become the number one hot search on Star Network.
Amber clicked on the news and found that the homepage was a video of "herself" walking out of the hotel with a petite and beautiful female in her arms. The face was clear enough and the posture was intimate enough that one could not help but praise the photographer's superb skills.
Amber tried hard to search the original body's memory, and vaguely remembered that such an incident seemed to have happened. The other party went to the bar to hunt for beauties last month and happened to pick up a beautiful female. However, given that the original body had a broken memory after getting drunk, he could not remember what happened specifically that night. He only remembered that he left the hotel at dawn. He did not expect it to be exposed at this time.
Even though the Zerg tribe respects males, it is still not good to have such a thing as cheating before marriage exposed by the media, especially since Ludwig is a major general of the Empire with a good reputation. Now the comment section is full of condemnation, and everyone is indignant and denounces Amber's ridiculous behavior.
[Amber, this bug, is really too much of a male bug. She did such a shameless thing on the eve of her engagement. Is her brain a ball of shit rolled up by a dung beetle? ! ]
[No male insect in Heiz City would do such a ridiculous thing. This is simply a humiliation to the female monarch.]
[Major General Ludwig, there are more males than Amber in the third-class star. Maybe you can look at other males, such as me (winking)]
[It seems that pearls are destined to be covered in dust, and flowers are destined to be stuck in cow dung. Oh, poor Major General Ludwig, why can't the insect god love you a little more?]
These comments are barely acceptable, but they start to get more and more offensive later on. After all, in real life, female insects can only tolerate the overbearing behavior of male insects. The only place where they can speak freely is probably the Star Network.
Amber flipped through it briefly and then closed the interface. Compared to those messy news, he was more concerned about the suspicious waiter. It was not enough to rely on Ludwig alone to investigate, he also had to take action.
When she got up from the sofa and prepared to go out, she unexpectedly saw Grandpa Finnan standing at the corner of the stairs. His face was solemn, and his slightly old eyes stared at Amber. He looked a little serious and said, "Amber, did you see the Star Network this morning?"
Amber stopped and guessed what the other party wanted to ask: "Yes, I saw it."
Upon hearing this, Fenan's brows knitted even tighter, revealing a deep ravine. He walked down the stairs, still vaguely showing his swift and decisive demeanor as a soldier: "Is the news on Starnet true? Were you really fooling around with that sub-female in the hotel?!"
In view of the presence of both insect and physical evidence, Amber did not want to deny it too absolutely. He spread his hands slightly and said with a smile: "That male insect does look a lot like me."
Seeing that Amber didn't answer the question, Fernando looked at his neatly dressed coat and asked, "Are you going to Ludwig to explain now?"
"No, there's no explanation for that."
Amber did promise Ludwig that she would not cause any more trouble, but that was yesterday, and the scandal was from last month, in other words, it had nothing to do with him, so he saw no point in wasting time on it:
"There's no need to hold on to the past. If Ludwig gets angry and refuses to forgive..."
Amber paused and gave an honest answer: "I can't help it."
There were too many scandals about the original body, and it was impossible for him to explain every time. Although it was a pity to lose such a backer as Ludwig, Amber was more afraid of trouble.
Fenan always wore half-worn clothes, which looked out of place in the prosperous city of Heize. When he heard Amber's answer, he suddenly let out a breath: "Amber, I didn't want you to stay on the third-class star doing nothing, so I begged Duke Bach to find you a job in the military. I didn't expect that when he found out that you were an S-class male insect with a bloodline mutation, he finalized this marriage..."
Finnan paused as he spoke. Amber's absurd behavior made him feel very regretful. She was quite obedient and filial when they were in the third-class star before, but since coming to the imperial capital, Amber has been worn down beyond recognition by the fame and wealth around her: "Maybe I made a mistake. The prosperous Heize City is not suitable for us. This marriage will only harm Major General Ludwig."
"There's nothing wrong with prosperity, Grandpa. You need to broaden your horizons and your ambitions."
Amber was once an emperor. His family had been ambitious and strategists for generations, and were particularly good at war and rebellion. The most prosperous land must belong to the fairies, as must the most fragrant wine and the most beautiful women. How could they be willing to curl up in a small space?
"I have something to do, so I'm going to go out for a while."
Amber would not argue with the old man. He walked out the door, but suddenly Fernando's deep and serious voice rang out from behind him: "Don't go out these few days. There are Star Network reporters waiting outside. I don't want to see you on the headlines again!"
Amber paused, and reached out to lift a corner of the curtain. As expected, he found that there were many black cameras hidden in the bushes outside, many gossip reporters were squatting outside, and there was even a bug lying on the tree -
Does he think he is a cicada?
Amber's eyelids jumped. Although there were historians in the capital who heard the news, it was definitely not perverted for him to squat at someone else's door with a camera. He went to secretly investigate the waiter's identity and did not want to attract attention.
The curtains fell, blocking out the scene outside.
Amber smiled and looked at Fenan: "As you say, I will stay at home during this time."
But he didn't go out, and the bugs came directly to his door.
A few days later, a silver-gray aircraft appeared outside the residence, and a female insect in military uniform came down from it. Her cold eyes were hidden in the shadow of her hat brim, and her thin lips were slightly pursed. It was not difficult to tell that she was in a bad mood. It was Ludwig.
The Star Network reporters who had been lying in ambush for several days suddenly brightened up when they saw this. They swarmed over from all sides like dogs smelling blood, holding up their recording equipment and asking him questions in unison:
"Major General Ludwig, have you seen the news from the past two days? Do you have anything to say about Amber's night meeting with a sexy Asian female?"
"Is this a misunderstanding or is it true? Are you here today to break off your engagement with Amber?!"
"Major General Ludwig, there are many rumors on the Internet. According to reliable sources, the Lanyi family has already intended to unilaterally cancel the engagement. Is this true?"
The reporter was asking questions vigorously, spitting everywhere, trying to dig out some exclusive and explosive information, but a cold gun barrel suddenly pressed against his temple, easily cutting off the sound in his throat, bringing it to an abrupt end.
Ludwig expressionlessly pointed his gun at one of the most enthusiastic gossip reporters. He lowered his eyes slightly to hide his dark emotions, and asked in a deep voice, word by word: "According to the Imperial Male Insect Protection Law, any public media is strictly prohibited from breaking into male insect residences and taking photos that violate privacy without the approval of the military. My fiancé is an S-rank male insect, and he has the right to activate the Empire's first-level protection regulations. Do you know what this means?"
The reporter was so excited when he heard that Amber was actually an S-rank male insect that he trembled all over. However, the next second, the barrel of the gun on his forehead became tighter. He looked at Ludwig in panic and stammered, "What...what does it mean?"
Ludwig gently pulled the trigger with his index finger, curled the corners of his lips, and looked at him as if he were a dead object: "This means that I have the right to deal with any suspicious bugs that illegally break into my fiancé's house. Even if I kill you all, it is just a legitimate defense. Do you understand?"
With every word he said, the reporter's legs grew weaker. In the end, he was half-kneeling on the ground, holding his camera and trying to run away with the other bugs. Unexpectedly, Ludwig kicked him back hard.
"Ouch!"
The edges of the black military boots were cold and hard, and when they kicked the knees, there was a dull sound. Even the thick-skinned female insect could not bear it and cried out while holding her legs.
Ludwig squatted down and put the gun to his chin, forcing the paparazzi to look up at him. He raised his eyebrows and asked coldly, "Why are you running? Aren't you here to interview the news?"
The cold gun barrel hurt his jawbone. Ludwig tapped the opponent's cheek with the gun barrel and said in an ambiguous way:
"My fiancé Amber and I have a very, very good relationship. Those messy scandals are just rumors. We will not cancel our engagement, and there will be no conflicts. So don't let me find out that you paparazzi are writing nonsense, and don't let me find out that you are taking secret photos of him. Do you understand?"
The reporter was so scared that he dared not say anything. He just nodded randomly and said, "I understand! Don't worry! We will not write nonsense!"
Ludwig spat out a word coldly: "Get out!"
After all, he is still too young and has a quick temper. These paparazzi are vicious and cruel. How could they be threatened by Ludwig after they return? I'm afraid they will still bear a grudge against him and deliberately smear him on the Internet.
Amber stood in front of the French window and shook his head slightly when he saw the scene outside. He saw Ludwig walking inside, turned away from the window and prepared to go downstairs to entertain the guests. When he passed by Grandpa Fernan's house, he knocked on the door with his fingers:
"Grandpa, Major General Ludwig is here. I have something to discuss with him. You don't need to come downstairs for the time being."
The room was silent.
The female soldier has always had a keen hearing. Amber knew that the other party had heard it. He tidied his clothes and turned to go downstairs, but he couldn't help but feel a little interested. Did Ludwig come to find her to settle the score, or to settle the score?
"I've been waiting for you for three whole days, and you haven't sent me a single message in these three days. Don't you have anything to explain to me about the news on Starnet?"
As expected, Ludwig came here to call for an explanation. He did not appear to be violent when he was angry. Instead, he stared at Amber with a gaze as if the temperature had dropped to freezing point, and his voice was low and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Amber actually didn't think there was anything to explain. After all, the video was clear and the original body did enter the hotel with the sub-female. It was definitely obvious that he had cheated, but...what did that have to do with him?
Amber never does stupid things like taking the blame for others. He poured a glass of sparkling wine and handed it to Ludwig. His knuckles were clearly on the tip of his finger holding the translucent goblet. He shook his wrist gently, and the wine color was rippling in his eyes. "Major General Ludwig, paparazzi reporters always like to take random photos and write random stories. I don't think their words are credible. What do you think?"
Ludwig felt that Amber was treating him like a fool, and he couldn't help but get even angrier. He looked at Amber coldly and couldn't help cursing: "Damn it, how do you explain that video? Have you forgotten what you promised me last time? Never get into this kind of damn trouble again!"
Amber pondered for a moment and felt that she was more reasonable: "I said so, and from the last time we met until today, I have not caused you any new trouble, Major General Ludwig. The news was last month."
"you!"
Ludwig always felt like a scholar meeting a soldier, unable to explain himself. Hearing this, he suddenly took a step forward, his black military boots pressed against the tip of Amber's shoes, his amber eyes narrowed dangerously, with an invisible sense of oppression: "So, you admit that the news is true?"
Amber leaned over and placed the glass on the coffee table. The scarlet liquid inside clearly reflected his eyes with a smile: "No, I never said that."
It is impossible for an emperor to take the blame for someone else's misfortune, not in his entire life. What he needs to do is to balance the power of the former dynasty and the harem and make them loyal to him.
"Ludwig,"
Amber's low and calm voice sounded from behind Ludwig, with a hint of sigh in it. He frowned slightly, as if he was worried about something: "You have to understand that many people in Heyds City are not satisfied with your marriage and are trying to stop it openly or covertly. I don't have any power or background, so it's easy for me to be framed by them. Do you know that?"
He seemed to be hinting at something. His tall figure was slightly close to Ludwig's back. He was slightly taller than the female insect by about half a head. His cold breath instantly enveloped the other party, but it was more seductive than any sweet fragrance. He said slowly:
"You should trust me and protect me. After all, we are a couple."
"Help me check the waiter at the auction that day and the sub-female in the hotel. I need your help."
"Ludwig, I don't want any bugs to interfere with our marriage, do you understand?"
When Amber suddenly approached Ludwig, he subconsciously tensed his body, his back extremely stiff. The male insect's warm breath sprayed evenly on his ears, and his voice was low, calling his name over and over again, like some kind of ancient and gentle spell.
Ludwig's female nature made it impossible for her to resist the scent of the male insect. Her body, hidden under her military uniform, began to heat up involuntarily, as if an invisible hand was pulling away her strength bit by bit, leaving only a faint blush on her skin.
Ludwig closed his eyes with a grim expression. He knew that the aura of male insects would have great appeal to female insects, but he didn't expect the impact to be so great.
Ludwig raised his hand to loosen his tie, exhaled slowly, and finally suppressed the strange burning sensation. His voice echoed in the quiet living room, with a barely perceptible self-mockery: "Of course you don't want this marriage to go wrong, otherwise how can you buy those limited edition aircraft? How can you enter and exit those aristocratic clubs? How can you stay on the Imperial Star for a long time instead of being sent back to the third-class garbage star?"
Ludwig knew his own value very well, or rather, he knew the added value of military females. Male insects would choose to marry them simply because of their family and wealth, as well as the military medals that represent power. In terms of appearance alone, military females with strong bodies and rough personalities are not as pleasing as the delicate sub-females.
Amber is a great example.
Ludwig said coldly: "You would rather leave your ready-made fiancé alone and go to the bar to pick up a female prostitute of unknown origin. Regardless of whether there is a trap or not, one hand can never clap."
He always spoke in such an impolite manner. I don't know if he was like this to all male insects or just to Amber, but people with this kind of personality are prone to being taken advantage of.
Ludwig turned around and left the house without saying anything. He didn't understand why he came here today. With the video in front of him, no matter how Amber explained it, it would be in vain. But she just held a sense of inexplicable happiness in her heart.
Obviously, not only did he not get a satisfactory answer, but he became even more upset.
Ludwig had hardly slept for the past three days. As soon as he got home, he felt a headache and fell into a deep sleep in bed. When he woke up, it was already dusk.
The terminal on his wrist just happened to ring, indicating that Duke Bach had sent a communication request. Ludwig lay on the bed and clicked the answer button weakly: "Do you want to talk to me?"
Duke Bach was silent for a moment, but the first thing he said was a sigh:
"Ludwig, why don't you cancel your engagement with Lady Amber?"
“…”
