Chapter 188 "...Will you be my queen?"
I definitely can’t soak in this hot spring anymore.
He Xile's face was burning, and the temperature of his whole body took a long time to drop. Even though his upper body was not in the hot spring pool, his pores were completely dilated, and sweat was running down his forehead. He felt like he was facing a crisis, but was completely exposed.
Still a little tired.
Realizing something, He Xile quickly stood up from the water.
He walked out of the hot spring and stood shivering at the edge. His round, white toes curled up slightly. He Xile's eyes were moistened with moisture, and his eyelashes trembled. He looked at Wen Jiyu and whispered, "The water is dirty."
Wen Jiyu chuckled, "It doesn't matter. It's all just data. Log off."
"...Okay." He Xile was eager to leave the crime scene as soon as possible. Upon hearing this, he immediately closed his eyes and logged off.
No matter what happened in the Star Network, the two of them were still dressed neatly in reality.
He Xile turned his head and met the gaze of His Majesty who was not far away.
The latter's posture remained unchanged, his expression indifferent, and his eyes looked at He Xile quietly, no one knew what he was thinking.
He Xile fidgeted, his mind racing with memories of what had just happened. He felt a slight unease, and the air in the room felt thicker. Standing and heading for the bathroom, He Xile said, "I'm going to take a shower," almost stumbling.
The hot water poured down, not only did not make He Xile feel better, but it seemed to recreate the scene just now.
He Xile muttered to himself, "Really? Nothing happened in reality, but on StarNet... And what's with StarNet? There's no mosaic! This shouldn't be happening."
Or is it because of His Majesty's account privileges?
It's not impossible. After all, he's the only one in the entire Star Network who can change his external image at will.
He Xile's body was not sticky at all, and he just washed in vain.
He took a towel and wiped his dry body. He hesitated for a long time and did not leave the bathroom. Only when he felt a little cold did He Xile stick his head out and look around.
Seeing that Ji Yu was not in the room, He Xile breathed a sigh of relief and ran away in his slippers.
After changing into pajamas, he sat cross-legged on the bed and opened the terminal to take a look.
The previous live broadcast results were amazing.
——Countless people flocked to He Xile’s homepage, and in just a short while, there were tens of thousands of messages.
A group of people were asking He Xile whether he had broken up with Wen Jiyou.
A group of people were questioning why He Xile treated their Majesty Hai Xinna like this. Being cuckolded was a very bad behavior. Even though they liked He Xile very much, they could not tolerate He Xile trampling on other people's feelings like this.
There was also a group of smarter people who were asking whether Yudui was His Majesty.
The last group was Qingliu. They gathered together and guessed that the hot spring He Xile was soaking in must be the highest standard one. The price of one time was totally out of place.
He Xile knew what His Majesty was thinking, but he thought it would be better for His Majesty to clarify the matter himself.
As soon as the homepage was refreshed, there were many more comments.
"Report—someone saw Yudui transformed into His Majesty at the ski resort! Now it's confirmed, they are the same person! Then all the previous questions are solved. No wonder Yudui is so strong and rarely online. He is His Majesty, how can he not be strong and busy? No wonder he has not participated in the summer competition, because it is offline, and if he participated, he would be exposed."
"If he really joins, what will anyone else do? He'll beat them all down!"
"One more thing. Didn't he always sponsor the summer season? It was essentially recruiting talent for the military. Think about it, have those who ranked high in the summer season ever reappeared?"
"Fuck, it really is!"
"I dated one of the Summer League champions. He was actually fighting the Zerg, but the treatment was really, really good. I was so envious."
"Of course the treatment is good. Think about the star coins His Majesty gave me..."
"...Now that I think about what I said back then about Yudui fixing the match, I just want to find a hole to crawl into."
"But it's not our fault. It's his fault for not taking off his vest!"
"Honestly, if he took off his vest, I don't think anyone would want to fight him."
"That's right... you're already chickening out before the fight even begins."
"Damn, now that I think about it, I thought His Majesty was the first to notice the moon in the palace, but I didn't expect it to start from Yudui???"
"Scheming!!! This is scheming!!! While all of us were stunned by Lan Lan's resurgence after being frozen for a thousand years and admiring her, without any other thoughts, His Majesty, who has been single for over a hundred years, has already made his move! What is this! This is the plan!"
"The pattern opens—"
He Xile was overjoyed when he saw the imagination of these netizens.
He chose one of the answers and said, "Actually, you guessed wrong. I was the one who was attracted by your beauty and pursued you first."
Speaking of which, when He Xile first met His Majesty, he thought His Majesty was very handsome. Even the black lines on his body were extremely sexy. Later, as the two of them got along, He Xile understood His Majesty's shining points even more and liked Him more and more.
It turns out that men only look at faces at first!
“???”
"Ah??? Your Majesty is being chased by Lan Lan??? I was completely stunned."
"Ah, but, is it true that you were tempted by beauty? Your Majesty's face..."
They don't think your Majesty's face is pretty.
You know, many people even have nightmares after seeing the black lines on your Majesty's face!
"Hey, I'm full of hope now. Before, I always thought I was ugly and was a little hesitant to fall in love, always thinking that no one would like me. But now after reading Lanlan's reply, I suddenly think that maybe God didn't let us come to this world to torture us. The world is so big, there will always be someone who will love you without hesitation and think you are the most handsome and beautiful person in the world!"
"Indeed, after my friend started dating, he thought his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world. I saw her photo, and to me, she's just an average girl. Her second most common feature is her ears, but my friend just can't let her go. So girls, don't always think you're not pretty here or there. In the eyes of the person who likes you, you are the most beautiful!"
"Girls, I'm going to be bold and confess my feelings to my idol! What if something goes wrong!?"
“Go, go, go—”
Seeing the topic was going off topic, He Xile's eyes narrowed, he opened the terminal, and sent a message to His Majesty: "Where are you?"
After a while, His Majesty replied, "I have something urgent to do. I need to go to the edge planet first. You should stay here for the next two days and don't run around."
He Xile: “?”
Um?
Why is it so sudden?
He Xile snorted and typed, "Running away after doing it? Scumbag!"
Inside the battleship.
After Wen Jiyu sent a message, he looked up casually and continued to discuss the battle plan for retaking the edge star with several generals who were traveling with him. However, before he could finish listening to the complete plan, the terminal rang again.
There will be no one else except He Xile.
Wen Jiyu casually glanced at his lover's reply, and when he saw the content on the terminal, he suddenly chuckled.
This sound was particularly clear in the battleship's command room.
Everyone: “?”
The generals standing beside Wen Ji immediately looked up and looked at each other.
Huh? Did they hear that right?
Why did His Majesty suddenly laugh while listening to the battle plan?
Weird!!!
——I have a feeling that the Zerg on that fringe planet we’re about to attack are going to be in trouble!!!
But then again, His Majesty's smile seemed much gentler than imagined, and the black lines on his face weren't as hideous as they remembered... Or perhaps it was because His Majesty no longer covered up the other black lines on his body and looked much more generous, so even they began to feel that those lines weren't a big deal?
Their eyes once again scanned the lines on His Majesty's body, and everyone thought that His Majesty had changed a lot since they started dating.
very nice.
&
This was not the first time that His Majesty had left without saying goodbye. His identity meant that he would often encounter various emergencies that required urgent handling, so He Xile didn't think there was anything wrong.
Moreover, although the two are in love, He Xile does not have the idea of sticking to each other all the time. He even feels that it is very helpful for the relationship if the two of them are separated for a while occasionally.
——Distance creates beauty.
A week after His Majesty left the imperial capital, Teacher Sang Qian finally responded: "Sir He Xile, please draw blood today."
He Xile: "Okay."
After agreeing, he looked at the guard beside him with a serious expression, "Brother, remember to tell the kitchen to make me a delicious meal, and it would be best if it can replenish my blood at the same time, because I was drained a full 30 times!"
Guard 131 immediately replied, "Of course, I'll tell them now."
Blood draws are usually based on weight.
The Haixinna people generally weigh three to four hundred kilograms, so 30 grams of blood is nothing to them, just a drop of water. However, this is not the blood of any Haixinna person, but the precious blood of the only human being!
Of course, the value and significance are completely different.
When He Xile arrived at the laboratory, everyone was there.
"Lanlan." The big lion's lips moved, and he was so moved that he turned into his original form and threw himself on He Xile, nudging him with his head while sobbing, "We were already very touched that you were willing to save us, but we didn't expect that today, Elder Sang said that you offered to donate blood - wuwuwu, you are so kind to us! I really don't know how to repay you!!!"
He Xile has no responsibility or obligation to help them.
Now, wasting time every morning to regularly meet with them was already a concession for He Xile, giving up his own time to stay in bed and have fun. He didn't expect that he would have to sacrifice his body again...
Although the amount of blood drawn was only 30, which doesn't sound like a lot, if you look closely, you will see how small the human looks, so thin, and it seems as if a gust of wind will blow over him.
Lan Lan is so selfless that she is willing to donate blood!!!
Woohoo, humans are really good!!!
"Big lion, get up! Stop pressing down on Lan Lan!"
"Oh oh oh."
Others came forward, smiling.
"Lanlan, here, take this. This is a local specialty of our planet. It can replenish your blood! You must eat more! Try to replenish your blood as soon as possible. If you feel any discomfort, be sure to tell me!"
"Oh, we all thought of the same thing. I also brought you some tonic from our place..."
Of course, they wouldn't just blindly demand things, nor did they take it for granted—in the eyes of everyone, Lord He Xile deserved the best! However, in their current state, they really couldn't offer anything that would impress He Xile.
Now these are their intentions.
He Xile had only taken two steps when he already had a pile of gifts in his hands.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I can't take it off. I can't take it off."
"Come, come, put it aside first, and I'll have the guard bring it back to you later."
"Okay everyone, get out of Lanlan's way."
"This way, this way."
He Xile was surrounded by the crowd and sat down.
It was clearly just a simple blood draw, but Teacher Sang Qian and others treated it as a major threat. When they were inserting the needle, they were always concerned about whether He Xile felt any pain, which made He Xile feel like a fragile porcelain doll for a moment.
It doesn't have to be like this...
The bright red blood flowed into the preservation instrument and soon reached 30.
"It's done." Hai Xinna's medical technology is better than that on Earth. After the blood was drawn, He Xile took a closer look and couldn't see even a pinhole, and his body didn't feel any discomfort at least for the short term.
At the same time, a teacher immediately packaged the blood drawn from the instrument and conducted research in a hurry.
Teacher Sang Qian took a deep breath and shook He Xile's hand. "Sir, I will inform you as soon as there is any news! Once again, on behalf of everyone at Hai Xinna, I thank you for your efforts in this regard..."
"You've said this before." He Xile waved his hand.
Sang Qian smiled and said, "No matter how many times I say it, it's never enough."
He Xile blinked, feeling a little embarrassed.
He glanced at the fluffy guy in the laboratory, and seeing that everyone was so happy, he couldn't help but smile.
Anyway, it's getting better, isn't it?
&
After a few days, the Snow Watching Festival ended.
Winter officially visited Hai Xinna.
When He Xile was live-streaming his sugar painting skills for people in the palace's kitchen, he saw many people posting comments in the live-streaming room, saying that it snowed on the first day of winter there, and the temperature was below zero, making it extremely cold. Fortunately, there was heating in the room.
...Winter is here.
When He Xile thought of this, he became distracted. The sticky syrup dripped, and the sticky dragon drawing that was almost completed was ruined.
"Hiss." He felt a little distressed and hurried to make amends, but it was not as delicate as before.
The chef standing by immediately comforted him: "It's okay, there are plenty of raw materials anyway."
He Xile was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Lanlan looks a little dazed, did she not sleep well?"
"How about we just forget about it today?"
"Actually, I've figured out how to draw sugar paintings from Lanlan's few failed attempts. It's hilarious! I'll post my finished sugar paintings later! Seriously, the finished products look amazing when photographed against the light. Humans really are amazing!"
"Yes, yes!"
"I've discovered that humans are full of fun and interesting things in their little minds! Lanlan mentioned kites earlier and said she'd take us to make one in the spring. I can't wait!"
"We also have to thank Lanlan for bringing the culture of the Blue Planet to us!"
He Xile rubbed his hands together and said, "One last time! I won't draw a dragon this time; it's too difficult. I'll just draw a giant octopus! If you fail, we'll go eat!"
Barrage: "Died of laughter."
"? Hmm? A blue painted octopus? No, that's probably something His Majesty is rather shy about, right?"
"As everyone knows, your Majesty's second characteristic is not an octopus."
"Isn't Lanlan afraid of being spanked by His Majesty?"
"I'm dying of laughter. Lanlan, don't worry. His Majesty is probably still at war right now and definitely doesn't have time to watch the live broadcast. We won't be recording it, so His Majesty won't know that you've been making giant octopuses while making sugar paintings behind his back!"
"Hmm? Then I also want a hush money! Hehehe."
"Damn it! How could you take advantage of someone's misfortune? I just want to say, you really—did a great job!"
"Speaking of which, the official announcement this time is about retaking a resource planet that was occupied by the Zerg hundreds of years ago. That resource planet is rich in various energy stones and gems, but its geographical location is not ideal, so Your Majesty really needs to lead the team personally..."
"Don't worry, Lanlan. Your Majesty is very strong! Hai Xinna has also become much stronger over the years. We will definitely be able to defeat her!"
He Xile pursed his lips and whispered, "I'm worried too. I'm afraid he'll get hurt."
When the two of them sent messages before, Wen Jiyou only said that he had to go to the edge star for an urgent matter, but who would have thought that he was going to fight in a war.
He Xile's impression of "war" is all stuck in the sufferings that China had suffered in the past.
It makes me worried just thinking about it.
"If we take down this resource planet, Hai Xinna won't have to worry about resource shortages for the next few hundred years, right?"
"Seeing Lan Lan like this, it suddenly occurred to me that my life is so smooth and fulfilling now. I happily watch TV shows and act like a carefree keyboard warrior every day. In fact, it's all because someone is carrying the burden for me... Whether it's Hai Xinna's resources or future plans, I never seem to care. Anyway, as long as I have food and drink, that's enough. This is actually wrong."
"Me too. In the past, when I was fighting, I only had this indifferent feeling: 'Oh, His Majesty is leading the army to fight. If everything goes as expected, we should be able to win quickly.' Seeing His Majesty leading the troops in celebration, although I was happy, I felt more that it was as it should be. After all, it was His Majesty. Now, seeing Lan Lan's worried expression, I can't help but feel worried too. I realized how much I had overlooked. Although I joined others in saying that I didn't like His Majesty and was afraid of Him, the sense of security He gave me was truly sufficient. I never even considered the possibility of losing the war. So, we were actually being protected without realizing it, and we even insulted the person who protected us..."
"Looking at it this way, I suddenly feel like we're such ungrateful wolves."
"I will never say that to your Majesty again."
"Alas, I wonder if Your Majesty would be saddened by all the negative comments he made about him, or by those who avoided him like the plague... First of all, I confess that I was one of those people who avoided him."
"Of course I will. Put yourself in your shoes. I feel like I'm suffocating. If it were me, I wouldn't care about you guys."
He Xile was concentrating on making sugar paintings. When he looked up again, he saw a bunch of short essays submitted by people.
His eyes curved: "It's okay, His Majesty doesn't blame you."
Lowering his eyes, He Xile said, "He is a very gentle person."
Therefore, Wen Ji and the people did not blame him.
He simply blamed all the mistakes on himself, wrapped himself tightly and pretended to be a hedgehog.
After finishing the last simple tentacle, He Xile carefully fixed the long bamboo stick, held up the sugar painting, and showed it off happily: "Dangdangdang, look at the big octopus I drew! It's so fat and cute!"
"You know what, it really does look like an octopus."
“???”
“??????????”
"Lanlan, put down your giant octopus! Don't blame me for not warning you!!"
"Fuck, I'm a little scared to look at this scene..."
"Thank you for the invitation. I've already covered the terminal screen with my hand. Could you please describe what happened in words?"
He Xile: “?”
Seeing the question marks and exclamation marks that were madly flooding the screen, as well as the demands of a group of people, He Xile blinked, confused. Just as he was about to ask, he heard the guards and chefs beside him shout in unison: "Your Majesty."
He Xile was still holding a sugar painting of a giant octopus in his hand, and turned around when he heard this.
At the door, Wen Jiyou was wearing military uniform, with his silver hair tied up, and his boots were still covered in dust, looking exhausted.
The two looked at each other, and He Xile opened his lips and silently called out, "Your Majesty."
Wen Jiyu's eyes darkened.
He strode over, his cloak fluttering in a beautiful arc.
Wen Jiyu took three or two steps and came in front of He Xile, then knelt on one knee.
Gently grabbing He Xile's free hand, Wen Jiyu placed the ruby ring he had prepared long ago on He Xile's ring finger. "I looked up information on this. The prototype of the ring was drawn by the old masters who did the archaeological work, and I polished it myself. And the ruby in the middle..." He leaned closer and whispered, "It's my eye that I found on the resource planet I just conquered."
Wen Jiyu's eyes?
He Xile opened his hand and looked at the ring on his ring finger, which was the perfect size.
——The ruby inlaid on the ring is bright and translucent, exactly the same color as Wen Jiyu's eyes.
"So." Wen Jiyu's face was covered in black lines, which fluttered into countless tiny scales due to nervousness. He glanced at the plump, freshly baked octopus candy painting in He Xile's hand, and suddenly smiled. He whispered, "Running away before finishing is not the style of a scumbag."
"...Will you be my queen?"
night.
He Xile sat cross-legged on the bed, watching the tentacles dancing beside him.
The color of the tentacles became noticeably darker, and the suction cups opened and closed, sticking to He Xile's ankles and sliding along his skin, leaving a layer of transparent mucus.
Wen Jiyu reached out and hugged He Xile to himself, explaining in a hoarse voice, "Our species enters estrus in winter. When we see our lover, we automatically secrete mucus to guide mating."
His slender fingers scraped off a sticky layer from the tentacles and smeared it on He Xile's body, "Try it."
Within two seconds, He Xile could feel the temperature of his skin, coated in the slime, rising noticeably higher than the surrounding skin. His breathing quickened, his body heated up, and he couldn't help but recall what he and Wen Ji had done in the hot springs of the Star Network.
"……hot."
He Xile pulled up his collar, and the ruby ring on his fair hand was very conspicuous.
Wen Ji and Adam's apple rolled.
The next second, the tentacles seemed to have received a signal and wrapped around it.
The dark tentacle suction cups stuck firmly to He Xile's body, slowly wrapping around and wriggling, leaving layers of marks.
He Xile: “…”
Before he caught fire, He Xile thought to himself, I understand, in short, it's drugging.
It's really a speechless incident.

The author has something to say:
This is a good place to end! There are also extras. WB author name, you can squat.
Feel free to mention any extra chapters you want to see, and I’ll write them if I can.
Thanks to all the little angels who have followed me all the way. I love you. I will start a new article around the 10th of next month. The copy is below. Click into the column to save it in advance:
Article title: Don't get excited, listen to my argument first
Author: I feel sleepy when I am full
The copy (will be revised, but it's basically this): Xu Fengxu traveled through time to the interstellar world, ABO background, with the same name and surname, but this big brother's private life is very chaotic. He just got engaged to the emperor of the empire, and is secretly having an affair with his childhood sweetheart, the marshal. He also has an unclear relationship with the prince of the enemy country, and even agreed to watch the meteor shower with the star pirates tonight.
If you think about it carefully, isn't this exactly the novel with optional branches that he is reading?
However, in the novel, the strategy plots for these four conquerable characters were separate, and now they are combined together.
Xu Fengxu: easy.
&
Later, Xu Fengxu's boat capsized in the waves.
After learning the truth, the four were furious and sneered, "You made a solemn vow back then, saying you only loved me. I never thought you'd say the same thing four times. Your heart is really full."
Xu Fengxu looked innocent. "Don't get excited. Physiologically, the human heart is divided into the left ventricle, right ventricle, left atrium, and right atrium. It makes sense for you to each have a room. We can even play mahjong together when we're free. How great! The grandpa and grandma next door cried when they found out."
Key points: 1V1, attack slice, the four little guys are actually one person, just divided into four small accounts.
