The Zerg Queen, who is assigned to me, wants to kill me!

Chapter 35: There's only one possibility...

Just as the two were trying to find an excuse to knock on the door and go in, the door was opened from the inside.

Ling Yi told the two of them to continue with their official duties, while he would take Qi Min on a tour.

"Yes, Commander!" The two responded and went to process the documents.

But then Qi Min said, "Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Upon hearing Qi Min's words, Chen Xuan and Lin Simiao couldn't help but look up at him, then glance at Ling Yi, unsure whether to introduce themselves or...

"They are my adjutants, Chen Xuan and Lin Simiao, both A-grade female insects," Ling Yi introduced to Qi Min.

Ling Yi's gaze lingered briefly on Chen Xuan and Lin Simiao before turning to Qi Min, seemingly observing Qi Min's reaction.

Chen Xuan and Lin Simiao, with slightly serious expressions on their faces, straightened their postures, nodded slightly, and paid their respects to Qi Min.

"Your Excellency Qi Min, hello."

The two of them greeted Qi Min together.

Qi Min smiled and agreed, and then added their personal computer number before following Ling Yi away.

Only Chen Xuan and Lin Simiao remained, looking somewhat dazed, as they continued processing the documents.

"What do you think of this male insect?"

Chen Xuan suddenly spoke up and asked Lin Simiao.

"It's hard to say, but... so far it seems... alright."

Lin Simiao glanced at Chen Xuan's expression and said carefully.

"Why did he... want our contact information?"

Chen Xuan frowned, unable to control her thoughts, constantly imagining the worst possible scenarios.

The urination behavior of male insects is generally well-known, so Qi Min's attitude and actions are rather suspicious.

If a male insect actively asks a female for her contact information, there's only one possibility: he's interested in her.

“Perhaps…” Lin Simiao’s eyes were also filled with confusion, and she hesitated to speak.

He didn't know how to explain Qi Min's behavior, and he secretly wondered about Qi Min's purpose.

Ling Yi, who was showing Qi Min around, also seemed a little down. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to ask Qi Min directly.

"Does the Lord... have he taken a fancy to Chen Xuan and the other one?" Ling Yi asked in a very calm tone.

"Huh? What? Why would you think that?"

Qi Min frowned slightly, feeling both surprised and puzzled, not understanding why Ling Yi would think that way.

"Isn't that right?" Ling Yi asked in a gentle tone.

"Of course not, I just thought that since they are your adjutants, it would be more convenient if I couldn't reach you in case something happened."

Qi Min began to explain, then asked in confusion.

"Did I do something that made you misunderstand? Why would you think that?"

"It seems that even a powerful ruler is completely ignorant of some common sense." Ling Yi glanced at Qi Min with an ambiguous expression, but quickly looked away.

"If a male insect asks for another female's contact information, it means he's interested in her. Wasn't that the same thing the male insect meant when he first met me?"

Ling Yi continued to explain to Qi Min and then asked a question in return.

"I don't know this common sense, but I have to admit that when I first met you, the reason I asked for your contact information was indeed because I was interested in you."

But I truly meant no harm to your adjutant. If this action has caused any misunderstanding, I apologize.

Qi Min explained to Ling Yi, stating his meaning, and then deleted the contact information he had just added.

"Your Majesty need not do this. Even if you do take a liking to someone, it's nothing; it's your right."

Ling Yi led the way, seemingly unconcerned.

However, Ling Yi, who was also thinking about something, did not notice that Qi Min slowly stopped and was staring intently at his back with a somewhat unpleasant expression, as if he had realized something.

After walking a few steps, Ling Yi realized that Qi Min hadn't followed. He turned back to look at Qi Min with a puzzled expression, about to speak.

"So you don't care at all?" Qi Min asked Ling Yi with a complicated look in his eyes.

"What do you care about?" Ling Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice tinged with confusion.

Ling Yi's eyes revealed a questioning look, as if he did not understand what Qi Min meant by "caring".

"Ling Yi, what do you think of me?"

Qi Min took a few steps forward to close the distance with Ling Yi and asked Ling Yi the same question again.

Unlike before, Qi Min asked not only with anticipation, but also with a deeper sense of inquiry.

"Why is the Lord asking this question again? The Lord is very good." Ling Yi was slightly taken aback, not understanding why Qi Min was asking him the same question again, but still answered accordingly.

"What do you mean by 'very good'?" Qi Min stared intently at Ling Yi, his tone carrying a hint of inquiry.

"Of course it's the male ruler's...it's excellent in every way."

Ling Yi's voice sounded slightly nervous as he answered, seemingly trying to find the right words to describe the situation.

"So, do you like me, since I'm great in every way?"

Qi Min stared intently at Ling Yi, as if waiting for an important answer.

"Of course I like it. What's wrong with the powerful ruler?"

Ling Yi's tone was tinged with doubt. Although his tone expressed liking, he felt uneasy because of Qi Min's unusual behavior.

Qi Min stared intently into Ling Yi's eyes, carefully discerning them, and finally confirmed a fact.

Ling Yi didn't have the kind of feelings for him that she thought she had.

"It's nothing, I'm a little tired, I'll head back now. I don't want to disturb your work, no need to see me off, I know the way."

Qi Min's irritability suddenly surged up. He didn't want to say anything more, nor did he want to show it in front of Ling Yi. He lowered his head and indicated that he would just go back.

“My Lord…” Ling Yi looked at Qi Min’s hurried departure, puzzled and confused. He didn’t understand what was wrong with Qi Min, and he didn’t know if he had said something wrong. Qi Min’s expression didn’t look good.

After hesitating for a while, he ultimately did not chase after them. He returned to his office break room, frowning as he recalled his conversation with Qi Min.

After thinking about it carefully, I didn't think there was anything wrong with what I said. Qi Min is a male insect, and he has his eye on a few female insects. I have no reason to object, nor is there any need to object.

He was just a little uncomfortable that Qi Min had taken a liking to his adjutant.

But since he hadn't shown any opposition, Ling Yi couldn't understand why Qi Min seemed so dissatisfied.

After briefly greeting the female officer in charge of the duty department, Qi Min left the military headquarters alone, his brows furrowed as he walked slowly.

Qi Min didn't call for a hovercar. He didn't want to go back to his empty residence. The restlessness in his heart lingered for the time being, so he wandered aimlessly until he came to the vicinity of an artificial lake.

Qi Min always felt out of place in this world, but he was fortunate enough to marry the person he loved.

During the few days I spent with him, I thought I was getting along well with Ling Yi and that he had some feelings for me too.

But the facts before him now told Qi Min that he might really be infatuated, and that the other person was only with him because of the rules and regulations.
