Chapter 41 Return Cheng Nanqi’s heart beat uncontrollably...
Well-deserved Imperial God of War.
Nan Qi's words made Bai's blood, which had long since cooled, boil again.
Only then did he realize that Nan Qi was willing to reveal the scars in his heart in order to heal the wounds in his heart.
How could there be such a good male insect in the world, who said "I do this for myself", but actually always thought about his so-called ally, and was willing to uncover the painful scars in his heart to help him heal.
If such a good Nan Qi returns to the central star, he will attract many outstanding female insects. Will Nan Qi's attention be diverted away from him?
Nan Qi would probably look at the female insect he likes with loving eyes.
Bai felt uncomfortable when he thought of that possibility. He didn't want to see Nan Qi smiling so beautifully at other female insects, nor did he want to see the image of other female insects reflected in Nan Qi's beautiful eyes.
He wanted Nan Qi to have only him in his eyes.
"Let Nan Qi fall in love with you, only you can do it."
Suddenly, Mayron's words reappeared in Bai's mind.
Bai suddenly clenched his fists. He had figured it out. He had to hold on to Nan Qi tightly, whether for selfish reasons or for their ultimate "female insect liberation plan."
Nan Qi didn't know what Bai was thinking, but when he saw that Bai had regained his spirits and his demeanor was different, he was happy for Bai from the bottom of his heart.
It was worth his time and effort to look up a lot of information and fabricate this life story based on his own real experience.
Nan Qi was pleased with himself. He was still so clever. Now he had explained his origins clearly. With an imperial general like Bai as his endorsement, no one would doubt his origins anymore.
"Okay, we haven't slept all night either. Didn't we say we'd be heading back today? I'll pack up and come find you later."
"Okay, I'll have Chong take you back and help you get your things."
"Why don't you come back with me?" Nan Qi approached Bai. "We'll have breakfast and come back later."
Bai nodded in agreement, and the two bugs walked out side by side. Only after they left the temporary command post did Melon and the others come out of the bug-free corner with red eyes.
"I was saying Bai would be fine," Lunke put his elbow on Mellon's shoulder, looked at the backs of Nan Qi and Bai walking away, and smiled, "We can all accept it. Bai is much stronger than us, so of course he will accept it too."
Melon rolled his eyes at Lunk and said, "Of course I know Bai will accept that some male insects no longer consider us as one of their own kind, but Bai is different from us."
"He always felt that it was wrong for one side to suppress the other, and that males were not hopeless. He wanted to find a balance between males and females, so that we could all live as we pleased, because we were all of the same species."
"If he suddenly knew that the male insects were really harming us, he would definitely be hit harder than us. He might even question his past decisions, thinking that his comrades' deaths were all due to his indecision. Then Bai would be trapped in this situation."
"I don't think Bai would be trapped in there," Pu Bo continued. "I think Bai had long been aware of the male insect, or the Insect King, doing this. That's why he took the initiative to infiltrate the black market 15 years ago and became its largest crystal dealer."
"He has been trying his best to protect everyone in his own way. If Nan Qi hadn't pointed it out, Bai would have kept you in the dark. At least this way you wouldn't be too uncomfortable."
"Tsk, you sound like you know Bai very well and have known about this for a long time." Melon was dissatisfied.
"I can't help you thinking that." Pu Bo didn't argue with him and stretched. "I'm hungry. Let's go eat. I heard that you guys have been burning calories recently and haven't been taking nutrient solution. That's a good thing."
When Mellon heard this, he felt very lucky.
In the past, every time they fought a war, they drank nutrient solution, which was convenient and fast.
They were supposed to drink nutrient solution this time, but because the war was urgent, the army had to go first, and the supply personnel would follow later.
The captain who was driving the military supply ship this time was inexperienced and crashed into space rocks. The supply ship broke down halfway and failed to deliver the nutrient solution in time. They had no choice but to start a fire to cook.
Porter Star is not small, but it is not big either. The supplies collected from all over the planet are only enough for them to last three days.
Half of the amount in these three days must be allocated to the natives of Porter Star.
Fortunately, there is a branch of Xue Ace on Potter Star, which saved them from starvation.
So, these past few days, they've been standing guard and eating nutrient solution, while those recuperating can go to the cafeteria to eat hot meals. Putting aside those bad things, life is not bad.
"Okay, okay, I don't want to think about it anymore." Melon was behind Pu Bo, but his eyes were looking in the direction where Nan Qi and Bai left.
Lenk, who was following behind him, bumped into him, and Mellon smiled with relief.
"Looks like I won't have to worry about Bug anymore. With Bugs around to bother him, he probably won't be so lonely anymore."
"Who? Bai? He's not someone you need to worry about." Lunke slapped Mellon on the back of the head and ran away, shouting as he ran, "You really think too highly of yourself! The boss has long been annoyed by your noisy behavior."
Mellon: "...You know shit, don't run if you have the guts, I'll beat you to death, you idiot!!!"
Mellon chased Lunk away, and Pu Bo walked slowly behind them. As the sun set, Pu Bo paused and looked up at the sky, sighing, "What a beautiful weather today! Perfect for a date."
The two insects returned to Nan Qi's nest after their "date." Nan Qi didn't rush to pack. He went into the kitchen, cooked porridge, made some mixed vegetables, and even made a yam puree for Bai as a dessert.
He had discovered long ago that Bai really liked this kind of sweet thing, which could be a little sour, but not too sour.
Looking back at Bai who was sitting in a chair browsing the web, Nan Qi thought for a moment and took out the remaining white sugar that Mellon and the others had brought to make candied haws from the cabinet, and quickly made the syrup.
With the ultra-precise control of SSS-level mental power, he created a vivid and beautiful butterfly and an abstract kitten with nine tails.
Carrying the sugar man on his back, Nan Qi walked to Bai's side and poked Bai with his hand.
Bai turned back: "What's wrong?"
Nan Qi chuckled and stretched out his hands in front of Bai, like offering a treasure: "Ting ting ting, look at what this is."
Bai's eyes widened instantly, and two small animals made of syrup appeared in front of him, a butterfly and a little nine-tailed cat.
The syrup butterfly is exquisite and lifelike, and the patterns on its wings are very similar to his. They are crystal clear and look like exquisite handicrafts.
But Bai preferred the more sloppy and abstract nine-tailed kitten. The kitten was squatting obediently, with its nine tails spread out like the tail feathers of a beautiful bird.
The kitten held its head high, with its ears tucked to the sides. An expression of smugness and seeking credit could be seen on its abstract little face, just like the way Nan Qi was presenting his treasure now.
"Do you like it?" Nan Qi stuffed the two sugar men into Bai's hands. "This is called sugar painting. My skills are not very good, but it won't affect your meal. The meal will be ready soon. Eat something sweet to fill your stomach, but don't eat too much."
After giving the instructions, Nan Qi turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue working.
Bai stared at the sweet-smelling sugar painting in his hand, then reached out and gently poked the kitten's tail, body, and ears.
Finally, Baimian expressionlessly bit the butterfly candy painting into pieces, and his fingers gently stroked a metal bracelet on his wrist, and a glass box appeared out of thin air.
He placed the candied kitten painting in a glass box and gently stroked the bracelet. The glass box instantly disappeared. Bai glanced at Nan Qi, who was unaware of the situation, before continuing to browse the web.
Soon, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen. Bai Guanxingnao got up and went into the kitchen to bring out the prepared meal with Nan Qi.
The rice porridge was thick and the wild vegetables were refreshing, and I ate a lot of them for free.
Nan Qi saw that Bai liked it, so he smiled and pushed the small bowl of yam fruit puree in front of Bai: "Dessert, you should like it."
Bai no longer doubted anything Nan Qi had done. He obediently scooped a spoonful into his mouth, his eyes suddenly lighting up: "What is this?"
Nan Qi smiled and said, "It's delicious, right? I call it yam puree. I found it very cheap, but few people buy it. I discovered it by accident."
Bai put down the spoon and explained, "Because many insects think yam has a very strange taste. Unless they are so hungry that they can't even afford the cheapest nutritional supplements, no insect will eat it."
"Strange? Do you think it's strange?"
Bai nodded first, then shook his head: "Your cooking is not weird, it's delicious. We never thought that this thing could be used as a dessert."
"Perhaps technology is too advanced nowadays, and everyone is used to the convenience of life. Plus, the gap between the rich and the poor is too big, so no one is willing to do research anymore."
Nan Qi took a mouthful of yam puree and squinted his eyes happily: "I really like to study food and drink."
"It's good to love research. Food is always the basis for the survival of every race. It's also great that you can devote yourself to research and achieve perfection." Bai Qingqian smiled.
Under the scorching sunlight, the image of the handsome and sharp Bai being melted by the shallow smile was clearly imprinted in Nan Qi's eyes, and Nan Qi's heart suddenly beat uncontrollably.
He touched his chest inconspicuously. The feeling was magical, but Nan Qi actually liked this feeling of being out of control.
His smile widened. "If you like, wait until we get to the Central Star, and I'll do it for you. But seriously, my business partner said something similar to what you just said. Speaking of which, you're both called Bai."
"Really? That's quite fate." Bai's eyes flashed. "When there's a chance, you can introduce us to each other. With me here, he shouldn't dare to cheat you."
"That's great, I'm just relying on you to bully others." Nan Qi sighed, "It feels really good to have bugs on it."
Bai saw his expression like a kitten that had stolen some fish, and he found Nan Qi even cuter. "Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, pack up and we'll go back to the command post. We'll set off this afternoon."
Nan Qi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go inform the Arnold brothers, and then check out with Sifes."
Bai: "You don't need to handle this little matter. Don't worry about Sifes. Just inform the two brothers."
"Then I feel relieved." Nan Qi happily went to pack his luggage.
His gift was not much, just a few pieces of clothing and some spices and nuts that he had gathered himself.
The remaining vegetables and meat were given to the neighbors. After everything was ready, Nan Qi looked at Bai and said, "Let's go."
Bai took the bag from Nan Qi's hand and as soon as the door opened, Arnold and Carter were standing in front of Nan Qi's house with bright smiles on their faces.
Thirty minutes later, on Porter Star, at the temporary battlefield command post, Peggy was reporting to Bai about the return trip.
Peggy: "Now everything is ready. We are just waiting for the admiral's order to set off."
Bai was dressed in military uniform, and a murderous aura filled him: "Then we'll break camp and return to the city!"
Mellon and Peggy: "We will obey the Admiral's orders!"
