Chapter 85: Looking for a Husband
“There’s nothing I can do.”
Limp wanted to reject the prince's disturbance.
His own affairs were a mess, so how could he have time to care about other people? Not to mention that after listening to Eastman's description, I just wanted to curse him, he deserved it!
As for Xie Si, that iron-like female insect, is she as easily controlled by emotions as Eastman said?
Xie Si has always been calm and rational. He follows Heras' orders in everything. He is decisive and always keeps his word. How could he be so easily angered?
Eastman, anxious and flustered, had already produced a bad check.
"Please, I'm very rich. I can give you a generous reward and ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. But please help me this time. It's really dangerous for Xie Si to follow Heras. I'm worried..."
Eastman's original confident and arrogant mood had completely disappeared, replaced by indescribable panic. When he was tangled, his hair was messed up by him.
Xie Si followed Heras to the battle without even saying hello.
It may take three to five days at the fastest, or three to five years at the slowest.
Did he not even have any weight in Xie Si's heart? He just left him without even looking back?
The feeling of winning was gone, and Eastman began to feel a little abandoned.
Since then, a sense of crisis has set in and the balance of power has begun to tilt.
"Okay? Give me a definite answer."
Limp looked at the prince who seemed to be in a depressed mood, his eyes gleaming.
This ungrateful prince seemed to know some inside information and said there was danger as soon as he opened his mouth.
Although every mission is dangerous, seeing him so flustered, it seems like there is something else going on.
"I can take you to him. He is in a flying machine with Heras. I need a wartime flying machine, enough food and water, and documents to pass the pass."
He was going to look for Heras anyway.
It would be better to take this opportunity to get yourself a reliable aircraft that has sufficient defense and escape speed.
If you travel with the prince and bring his guards with you, the safety factor will be greatly improved. At least you won't be captured by pirates or the like.
Although Limp now has a very complicated feeling about the profession of star pirate, it is obviously not suitable for him to take risks at this time. If Heras is not seen but is caught instead, it will be a lot of fun.
Eastman fell into deep thought.
"Why? No? Is your so-called affection just words?"
Lin Pu got angry when he saw his hesitation.
How could Xie Si, who is a man who dares to love and hate, fall into the trap of being a bug?
Perhaps it was because Limp's contemptuous gaze was too intense, Eastman nodded: "Of course, I can, but I need some time to take care of some household chores."
He glanced at Limp: "You need it too."
"Tomorrow is His Majesty's birthday. You will most likely be invited to attend, and as the only male son of the female father, I must also attend. If you need to go there without telling everyone, you must first attend His Majesty's birthday banquet."
That is true.
As Limp is a newly promoted SS-class male insect, the Insect Emperor will definitely want to show off his relationship with Limp to all insects in order to consolidate his rule.
It is even possible to use this as an excuse to surround Limp with some random people.
"Why is his birthday not earlier or later but at this time?"
"Don't you know? His Majesty invites all the high-ranking male insects and officials to a banquet every year at this time. It is a grand event."
Limp nodded confidently.
Because not only he didn't know, the original owner didn't know either.
As an ignorant low-level male insect, isn't it normal not to know?
Limp was justified.
Eastman was choked by his attitude, but remembering more important things, he tolerated it.
Anyway, he and the Insect Emperor don't have a very deep relationship. Normally, they won't meet unless there is something important. Ever since he was a worm cub, it has been difficult for him to find his female and male fathers.
"Then it's settled. After His Majesty's birthday banquet tomorrow, I'll provide the flying machine and you'll accompany me to find Xie Si."
"Remember to call more bugs to ensure our safety."
"Bugs?" Eastman asked in confusion, "It's just the two of us, isn't it? Who else do you want to invite? Do you think you're going on a picnic?"
"You won't have guards with you?"
"So, what's the difference between that and telling the sire directly?"
The mother-father did not agree with Eastman getting involved with a civilian, let alone risking his life to chase him out.
"I'll leave them here and pretend I'm still here for as long as I can, and it's best if I don't get caught until I come back."
Eastman was calm at this moment.
I feel that I have considered it quite comprehensively.
But Limp was a little bit unbelievable: "Don't you have some subordinates of your own?"
Are you completely putting yourself under the control of the Insect Emperor?
Eastman nodded as a matter of course: "Why do I need my own subordinates? What's the difference between those now and my own? Aren't they all there to protect me?"
Limp covered his forehead with his hands, feeling grief-stricken: "In a situation like this, you won't have anyone to protect you."
Sighing, Limp took out his laptop and sent a message that he had been thinking about for a long time: "Forget it, you don't have to think about it. Just prepare what I want and wait outside the palace tomorrow."
"Okay, don't be late, otherwise it will cause trouble."
Things finally took a turn for the better, and Eastman stopped dwelling on what had happened before. He returned to his carefree and lazy state and slowly walked away.
Limp also went back immediately and got ready.
The next day, as expected, the Insect Emperor sent insects to provide Limp with wake-up service early in the morning.
The female insect came up and prepared to lift Limp's quilt.
Limp's mental strength, which had been trained over and over again, came in handy at this moment.
There was a loud bang.
Limp woke up from his sleep and found a hideous-looking female insect lying beside the bed.
"What happened? Was there an earthquake?"
Limp's mental power was used unconsciously, and he himself did not even feel it. It was only the sound of the female insect falling to the ground that woke him up.
"The Insect Emperor...His Majesty invites you to attend his birthday party."
The female insect was wearing very little clothing and fell abruptly onto the cold, hard floor. She grimaced in pain, but she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.
"now?"
"Yes, Your Excellency Xiongzi."
So Limp began to wash slowly, and his unhurried manner made the female insect almost grit her teeth.
"Mr. Xiongzi, everyone is waiting for you."
"I'm so honored. I've never been waited on by a bug before. Today I can experience it for myself."
Limp continued to stall for time in a useless way.
There's nothing good to come of going anyway.
I might as well take my time and make myself a hearty breakfast this morning!
After finishing, Limp took a photo and sent it to Heras: "It's the first day I missed you. I ate my meal well. How about you?"
