Q: How to develop a sweet relationship with a female gentleman

Chapter 152 Winning over

The male insect in the center finally spoke with a smile on his face. Although it was unknown how much of the smile was real or fake, it did seem to have lost some of its majesty and become more friendly.

"You are His Majesty Wen, right?"

Wen Zhimo slowly saluted and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, it's an honor to meet you."

The Insect Emperor looked at the elegant and refined young male insect in front of him and seemed very satisfied. He said with some admiration, "He is really beautiful. There must be many female insects who like him."

Wen Zhimo smiled and said, "You're joking."

Rumor has it that this emperor was very capable. He came to power at a young age, and within a few years, he put down the rebellion regarding the struggle between males and females.

In the following decades, he sat firmly on the throne and no one could shake the power of the Hernandez family.

Wen Zhimo looked at the male insect in front of him who was smiling warmly, and was unsure of the emperor's thoughts, so he could only respond in a neither shallow nor indifferent manner, polite but not flattering, everything was just right.

The soft light from the crystal chandelier cast a large shadow on the emperor, making his expression difficult to discern. His voice was steady and dignified, "It's been a while since I've chatted with young bugs. Since you're all here today, it's a good opportunity for you, an old bug, to chat with me."

Although he is called an "old insect", the Insect Emperor has an outstanding appearance and does not look old. If people say that he is only in his twenties or thirties, he will have the appearance of an insect.

The lobby on the second floor is not close to the lobby on the first floor, which isolates it from the hustle and bustle downstairs.

Those sitting there were some noble male insects and some well-known male insect leaders from various industries. They sat in their seats elegantly, with gentle expressions but unclear emotions.

Qiao Wang, like the black-haired and black-eyed male insect, sat not far from the Insect Emperor and could easily hear him speak.

Wen Zhimo was about to say something when the black-haired, black-eyed male insect spoke up, "You're in a good mood, even hosting a dinner just to chat with me."

The male insect's words were bold, and he seemed to have no fear or respect for the Insect Emperor.

But unexpectedly, the Insect Emperor was not angry. He just frowned slightly in displeasure and warned: "Cyril!"

Cyril, the Seventh Prince whom the female insects both loved and feared, was violent and cruel. He once dealt with a large number of female insects overnight.

Some said that he was exiled to the garbage planet, while others said that his wings were plucked off and he was sold to a female slave farm. In any case, he never appeared on the Imperial Star again.

But this prince was born beautiful and delicate, like a male insect that the insect god had carefully crafted. Although the female insects were very afraid of him, they still couldn't help but feel pity and love for him.

Such a handsome male insect has already received the love of the insect god, so what's wrong with receiving the love of a female insect?

It’s a pity that this prince got married not long ago, and his wife is a fallen noblewoman from the imperial capital.

This made the female insects in the imperial capital both surprised and regretful.

At this moment, after hearing the Insect Emperor's scolding, the prince simply raised an eyebrow and tactfully shut up. However, everyone could see that this prince didn't seem to care about the Insect Emperor's words.

Under Oliver's guidance, Wen Zhimo finally sat down. His seat was neither too close nor too far from the Insect Emperor, making it perfect for chatting.

The Insect Emperor always asks some questions and then asks for the opinions and views of the male insects present.

In my impression, male insects are all pleasure-seeking, arrogant and brainless. It is hard to imagine that they would also talk about current affairs, politics, economics, or even military affairs, which have always been the domain of female insects.

The male insects in the hall didn't seem to be encountering these things for the first time, and they all talked about it enthusiastically.

Wen Zhimo didn't know much about these things, and didn't want to reveal too much about himself, so most of the time he would just talk briefly and then listen quietly and politely to the other male insects talking.

Qiao Wang, who was standing aside, seemed innocent and harmless, but he was actually very smart. He seldom said anything and was always observing the situation of the other male insects.

Not to mention the Seventh Prince, he looked lazy and seemed to find these things boring, but it was unclear whether he listened to them or not.

As they were talking, the purpose of this Insect Emperor's dinner became clear.

The Zerg has always been a system of males being superior and females being inferior, but no matter what, the female Zerg are always the stronger side with the numerical advantage.

As a result, some male insects established their own forces and recruited powerful and capable male insects in the Zerg tribe to protect the safety of the male insects and maintain their status.

This force is not a complete faction, nor does it have a so-called contract. It is maintained only by common interests.

Both the royal faction and the Xiongbao Society are involved in this force.

Now, the Zerg has an S-level male Zerg that has not appeared in hundreds of years, so they naturally want to fight for it.

You know, S-level male insects are extremely attractive to female insects. It would be best if they could use this to make some female insects willing to work for them.

"The Zerg's gender problem has always been very serious. It has not been balanced for thousands or even millions of years."

"Many female insects, let alone mate with male insects, have never even seen a male insect in their entire lives."

"Are they willing?"

"Are they willing to endure the torture of mental turmoil and estrus?"

"If it weren't for the checks and balances of the royal family and the Male Protection Association, male insects might have become public toys, comforting countless female insects every day and enduring their brutality."

"So what if the male can't release pheromones when he's scared? The cunning female will always find a way."

"I think you are smart and know how to choose."

Marquis Ymir sat in his chair, his tone unable to conceal his excitement, and a sharp and deep light flashed in his eyes.

The Marquis is the current head of the Hayes family. Unlike those male insects who spend their days having fun, he has made great achievements in the economic field.

The outside world has always said that the reason why the Hayes family's business has been so successful is because Marquis Ymir married a female insect who is good at managing business. However, Marquis Ymir's wife is very clear that the reason is inseparable from Marquis Ymir's contribution.

And now, the "you" that Marquis Ymir was referring to were naturally Qiao Wang and Wen Zhimo.

Because as a prince, the black-haired and black-eyed Seventh Prince is destined to be tied to the interests of the royal family.

The words have been made so clear that even if Wen Zhimo wants to play dumb, there is no way.

But he had no interest in power struggles and did not want to get involved in them.

More importantly, if a conflict occurs, Youan will definitely stand on the side of the Legion.

Wen Zhimo didn't want to stand against Youan. There was no need and no possibility for him to abandon his partner for things that he was not interested in.

However, he had to think carefully about how to start his speech so as not to attract the attention and revenge of the male Zergs at the Zerg power center.

Wen Zhimo glanced silently at Qiao Wang standing beside him.

The other party should be facing the same dilemma as him, but does not seem to have so many troubles.

Perhaps there was only one choice from the beginning, which was to stand firmly with his female lord, so he seemed much more calm.

Wen Zhimo and Qiao Wang looked at each other, as if they were discussing something silently, but neither of them spoke.

Marquis Ymir then spoke again, "Your Majesty, I know your partner is a female soldier, so you may have some concerns. But rest assured, we will not actively provoke a fight between the Legion and the male insects, nor will we exploit the female insects. All we want is a guarantee."

"A guarantee that we can help each other and sacrifice some interests when necessary."

If Qiao Wang was an ordinary male insect, he might have been fooled.

But he is not, he is a time traveler who comes with a system.

His System Qiqi kept cursing in his mind.

Qiqi: Qiaoqiao, don't believe him! It's better to believe that I am Qin Shi Huang!

[Qiqi: This so-called power actually has no contract or formal rules. It's simply maintained by mutual interests. There's no telling when it might disintegrate.]

Qiqi: What kind of promises are you making? Pah!

[Qiqi: Once you make that promise, you'll be plundered by those male insects! Despicable old male insect!]

Qiqi: Qiao Qiao, just remember, we are here only for Cedric, the rest has nothing to do with us.

[Qiqi: How the Zerg fight is their own business!]

Qiao Qiao: Don't worry, I'm not stupid. However, it's rare that you've spoken so much about what happened today.

Qiqi: Humph, isn't it because you always play with Cedric and ignore me?

[Qiao Qiao: ...I remember you were the one who had been watching TV series recently and told me to stop bothering you.]

[Qiqi: ...about the same.]

【Qiao Qiao: A lot of difference.】

Of course, Qiao Wang would not fall for it. Not to mention that it was a big trap, even if it was because of Cedric, he would not agree to it.

As expected, the absurdity of these words made the Seventh Prince, who had been lazily supporting his head and playing with his wine glass out of boredom, laugh.

"Marquis Ymir, the purpose of this dinner is to chat with young insects, not to let you cheat on insects."

As soon as these words came out, Marquis Ymir's face changed and turned red: "Seventh Prince, how can you say that!"

Cyril didn't care and shrugged lightly: "How should I put it?"

The Insect Emperor, who was sitting in the center, did not stop or express any dissatisfaction with the Seventh Prince's behavior.

Wen Zhimo has always been smart and good at observing people's words and expressions, so he understood what was going on.

As the male insect force, the royal family does not seem to stand firmly on the side of this so-called force or alliance.

It seems that this alliance is not a very reliable thing.

Wen Zhimo lowered his eyes, an indescribable emotion flashed in his eyes. He thought, this is better, so that he won't offend these "big shots".

Marquis Ymir wanted to say something else, but the Insect Emperor spoke up at this moment. He smiled, his tone still so kind and amiable: "Ymir, you will scare these young male insects like this."

Although Marquis Ymir was holding his breath, he had no choice but to shut his mouth.

The Insect Emperor continued, "But Marquis Ymir is also right. Male Insects may seem to enjoy a life of luxury within the Zerg Tribe, but in reality, it's extremely dangerous. As S-rank male Insects, I hope you will take on the responsibility of guarding and protecting the Zerg Tribe."

This is really a wonderful thing to say.

Or rather, it's a little funny.

The duty to guard and protect the Zerg? That sounds more like the duty to guard and protect the males.

Nice words indeed.

But no matter what people say, the Insect Emperor is in a heavy mood, but what he actually thinks is another matter.

The words just now seemed to be helping Marquis Ymir to save face, but in fact they were condoning the Seventh Prince's behavior, indicating that the Insect Emperor did not seem to agree with Marquis Ymir's words.

But you have to give face to avoid embarrassment.

"What do you think, Your Majesty Wen?"

Wen Zhimo is the only unmarried S male insect, and no forces have infiltrated him yet, so he is the easiest to win over.

Wen Zhimo, who was suddenly nominated, smiled and said, "You are right."

What is it? It is not clear.

Everyone can say nice polite words.

It doesn't cost any money, so why not say a few words to cheer yourself up?

In fact, Wen Zhimo himself was well aware of one thing, that is, as an S-level male insect, no insect would dare to touch him openly no matter what.

Legally, he has extremely high rights and enjoys the best protection.

Even if he doesn't give in here today and gives vague answers, these male insects can't do anything to him.

Qiao Wang seemed to have the same idea. His queen was the general of the Third Legion and the future head of the Parker family.

If conflicts and contradictions really occur, his female monarch will stand on the side of the legion and the female insect faction.

What's the guarantee? Nothing!

But nothing has happened now, and these male insects are also "big names" in the Zerg race, so it would be bad to offend them rashly.

The male insects present seemed to know that it was a bit anxious to let Wen Zhimo and Qiao Wang accept these things all at once.

This was especially true of Qiao Wang. Starnet had long rumored that this His Majesty and his female monarch had a particularly good relationship. Although most of the male insects present felt that female insects were a thing, they could have as many as they wanted and didn't need to worry about them, and they couldn't understand Qiao Wang.

But seeing that Qiao Wang didn't say anything, he didn't want to press him too hard.

These male insects thought that sooner or later, these young male insects would realize the necessity of their actions.

So, the sensitive topic was lightly skipped.

Marquis Emmanuel looked at Wen Zhimo and said with a smile, "Your Majesty Wen, I heard that you previously worked at the Imperial Biological Research Institute and have a deep understanding of plant research. My wife is also very interested in this. You two can make an appointment to chat sometime."

This is to introduce someone to Wen Zhimo.

An S-level male insect is a hot commodity. If one can successfully marry one's female insect to him, it will be a great joy.

With the pillow talk like this, they will all be in the same camp sooner or later.

Wen Zhimo froze for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party would set his sights on this.

Looking up, Qiao Wang seemed to be gloating.

Qiao Wang: Fortunately, Wen Zhimo is here, otherwise, I would be introduced to a lot of female servants.

[Qiqi: Watching the show, please don't disturb me.]

[Qiao Wang: And you're saying you don't want to play with me because you're watching a drama?]

【Qiqi: Hehe.】

【Qiao Wang: Hehe.】

Qiqi: ...

Wen Zhimo smiled politely: "You're joking. It's just a little interest, not a profound insight."

But Marquis Emmanuel didn't seem to want to give up. "You're too modest. It's absolutely remarkable that you've been able to conduct research at the Imperial Institute of Biology. I really should let my daughter learn from you."
