Chapter 28 Sweet Words Nan Qi’s sweet words?
"I suddenly feel like our boss isn't at a disadvantage." Lunk whispered into Mellon's ear. "Look, this male insect not only soothes the boss's perverted mental power, but is also handsome and capable. He doesn't seem as perverted as those high-level male insects."
Mellon thought about it and it seemed to be true, but he still answered Lenk cautiously: "It's possible that he is pretending."
The two female soldiers' loud conspiracies left Nan Qi speechless.
He snapped his fingers. The crisp sound made the insects, immersed in their own thoughts, reflexively look at him. Nan Qi pointed to his ears and said, "I'm not deaf. I heard it."
Mellon: "Ah, hahahaha, we, uh..."
"Alright," Nan Qi interrupted Mellon, a smile on his face. "Stop talking nonsense. What do you want from me?"
Lunk's heart tightened. That was it. The last time they were in the Brave Game store, the male insect said to him, "Stop talking nonsense" with this expression.
Lunk was already feeling a little guilty, and when he saw Nan Qi like this, he moved his steps calmly, hiding half of his body behind Mellon to reduce his presence.
Mellon didn't notice Lenk's actions. Seeing Nan Qi's decisiveness, he put away his playful expression and said seriously, "Admiral Smellid wants to see you. Please come with us."
Nan Qi nodded to Arnold and Carter and was about to follow Mellon and the others when Arnold suddenly said, "Wait."
"What's wrong?" Nan Qi turned around.
Arnold didn't say anything. He took out a piece of soft toasted bread from his lunch and handed it to Nan Qi: "You only had something to eat yesterday morning, and then you were dragged here. You haven't eaten anything since then. Be careful not to starve."
When Arnold said this, he didn't even look at Mellon and Lenk, and his tone was gentle, but it made Mellon and Lenk feel a chill down their spines and a little uneasy. They realized later that they had gone a bit too far. Nan Qi's friends were dissatisfied with their exploitation of Nan Qi.
"Well, why don't you finish your lunch first before we leave." Mellon quickly spoke to make amends.
Nan Qi shook his head and raised the bread in his hand: "This is all I need, let's go."
After saying that, he walked out first. He knew where Bai's room was, and he knew how rough it was yesterday. He knew Bai probably couldn't get out of bed yet.
Mellon and Lenk politely said goodbye to Arnold and ran out after Nan Qi.
After the three bugs left, Carter came up, patting his chest and saying, "Brother, you were really awesome just now. You're so brave."
Arnold rubbed his silly brother's head and smiled gently: "We haven't broken any laws, what are we afraid of? You're hungry, right? Come eat."
Carter looked at his brother's gentle smile, and suddenly shuddered for some reason. He shrank his neck and followed Arnold to eat.
Nan Qi lived not far from Bai, and soon arrived at Bai's dormitory. After Nan Qi entered Bai's room, Melon and Lunke hid outside the door and whispered in his ear.
After Bai woke up, he told them about Nan Qi's ability to find food, and also told them that the two insects were going to cooperate to open a store, and the location was chosen to be on the Central Star. He also made it clear that it was his instruction to contact Nan Qi.
By the way, he also warned them not to be hostile to Nan Qi and not to reveal his fake identities.
Melon now thought of the cold look in Bai's eyes when he said this, and felt a bit like his own brother had turned his elbow outward and was taken away by a wild cat.
They hadn't done anything to Nan Qi yet, but Bai had already started defending him. Besides, they wouldn't do anything to Nan Qi either. Nan Qi was Bai's savior, after all, so they wouldn't repay him with evil.
When talking about this now, Mellon still feels a little uncomfortable.
Lunke patted his shoulder and said, "You're really too worried. You've used up all your usual cleverness on your dog. The boss isn't afraid that you'll embarrass Nan Qi, he's afraid that you'll get hurt."
Melon frowned and pointed at himself: "Me? Injured? I am an S-rank female insect after all, how could I be injured so easily."
Lunk shook his head. "Do you think the male insect that can appease the boss's mental power can be an F-rank? At least it must be an SS-rank."
"An SS-class male insect hasn't appeared in our empire for three hundred years, and there aren't many records of it. However, an S-class male insect is very fragile. I imagine an SS-class male insect would be even more fragile. But do you think Nan Qi is fragile?"
Melon's breath was caught, obviously remembering how Nan Qi looked in combat uniform. That was a combat uniform made according to their female insect warriors, and it would be too difficult for male insects to hold it up.
Not only did Nan Qi hold up well, but he also looked very good in it, very imposing...
"You've noticed something different, haven't you?" Lunk raised his eyebrows and placed his elbow on Melon's shoulder. "Didn't you notice that Nan Qi is a little different from those male insects? It's not just in terms of physical strength."
"High-level male insects look down on us female insects, and low-level male insects are afraid of us female insects. But Nan Qi doesn't look down on us, nor does he fear us. The message conveyed in his eyes is - equality. It's comfortable to get along with him, right?"
It was indeed true, but Mellon still felt uncomfortable about some of his friends being taken away by wild cats, so he said stubbornly, "There are male insects like this too."
"Yes, but they are not as healthy as Nan Qi, nor are they as good at fighting as Nan Qi, and they can't find so many edible and delicious things in the wild like Nan Qi." Lunke said.
"Hey, why do you think so highly of him?" Mellon pushed Lunk. "Don't keep me in suspense. What do you want to say?"
Lunk patted Mellon's head and said, "What I want to say is that Nan Qi doesn't have any smell. His identity information level is F because his upbringing is likely different from ours."
"His upbringing meant he wasn't injected with a psychic manifestation agent during the full moon, so naturally, he doesn't have a taste. He also hasn't lived in a normal city, so he knows what he can and can't eat just to survive. He's not sensitive to the class disputes between male and female insects, and—"
"And he's probably not on the list of the Male Insect Protection Association," Mellon continued. "A high-level male insect that has never been noticed by anyone has become Bai's Male Master. I'm looking forward to the expressions of those old guys."
"Honey, that's it. Do you still think that the boss you have been protecting was taken away by a wild cat? Do you still think that the boss values women over friends?" Lunk asked with a smile.
Mellon showed a dangerous smile, and pressed his left hand against the fingers of his right hand, making a clicking sound. "Very good, you succeeded in disgusting me, dear!"
Before he finished speaking, Mellon's fist landed on Lunk's head. Lunk screamed and ran away with his head in his hands. The two insects started to fight.
Inside the room, Bai put on a coat and sat against the headboard. "I'm sorry to have made you laugh. But their conversation is also what I want to say to you. I believe that only honesty can create a solid alliance."
Nan Qi sat on a chair beside the bed. "No, they are sincere. Sincerity will be rewarded with sincerity. This is a truth I have understood since I was a child. I believe we will be the strongest alliance."
"So, is there anything else you want to tell me besides this?"
"Yes." Bai took the palm-sized Star Brain from the bedside table and handed it to Nan Qi. "I have scheduled a mental power test for you. I hope you can retest your mental power. This will be very helpful for our subsequent plans."
Nan Qi looked at the time on it and raised his head to look at Bai: "Aren't you afraid that I'll find out it's still F-grade?"
"Are you?" Bai looked directly at Nan Qi, his dark eyes as cold as ice water. "You and I both know that you are not F-level."
Nan Qi did not answer, he looked into Bai's eyes steadily.
Bai felt a little uncomfortable when he was looked at, thinking that his words had offended him. Just as he was about to apologize, Nan Qi suddenly covered his eyes.
Bai originally wanted to hide, but when he saw Nan Qi's eyes full of curiosity without a trace of filth, he gave up and lowered his eyes. His thick and long eyelashes trembled under Nan Qi's fingers, like a butterfly spreading its wings to fly.
"Your eyes..." Nan Qi chose his words carefully, "Why did they change color?"
"What?" Bai seemed not to understand. "What do you mean by changing color?"
Nan Qi: "Your eyes were ice blue yesterday. They were very pretty and beautiful. They suit you very well."
Bai didn't answer. He looked at Nan Qi for a while before saying, "Are you... saying sweet words to me?"
Nan Qi readily agreed: "Do you like it? If you like it, is there a reward?"
Bai raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "It feels pretty good. As for the reward, I'll tell you a secret."
Bai stretched out his hand and hooked his finger at Nan Qi, whooshed closer. This time, Bai seemed to see a pair of soft cat ears standing up on Nan Qi's head.
It's playful, full of gossip, and kind of cute.
A hint of smile flashed in Bai's eyes, and he lowered his voice: "My eyes are originally ice blue. As for why they are black, it is the result of my mental control. This method is only known to me."
Nan Qi's eyes widened, and he became interested: "The color of the pupils can be controlled. Can I learn it?"
Bai nodded: "Of course, so do you agree to take the mental test?"
Nan Qi smiled. "I didn't refuse in the first place. I'm a very professional ally. But I have a question. Has the Star Beast Army been dealt with?"
"Of course, they gathered their army just to force me to come to Porter Star. Now that I'm here, their goal has been achieved. Especially after the news of my mental riot spread, their main force had already retreated. They might have left a force behind for some other purpose."
Bai sneered, "To plot against me, they colluded with the Star Beasts. I never realized they were so capable."
Nan Qi blinked his eyes when he suddenly heard such a big secret, and sighed in agreement: "Well, it's quite promising."
Bai: "...Don't you want to say something?"
Nan Qi was stunned: "What did you say?"
white:"……"
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Nan Qi saw Bai looking at him expressionlessly, so he opened the bread bag, tore off a piece of bread and handed it to Bai. "I know what you want to ask. You want to ask me which party is behind all this, right?"
Bai nodded while biting the bread. Nan Qi smiled and said, "You have the answer in your heart, but you don't think he is that stupid. But if it's not him, you can't figure out who has the ability to make the Star Beast Tribe cooperate with him in acting."
Bai nodded again and pointed his finger upwards. "Mellon and the others also think it's him, so I want to hear your thoughts."
