Chapter 182 Light and Warmth
Chapter 182 Light and Warmth
The atmosphere in the couple's restaurant is always ambiguous, with soft lighting and exquisite decorations. The aristocratic female insects on dates are also talkative and humorous, but Bernie just feels bored sitting there.
The female insect was not annoyed. She took out the gift she had prepared and gave it to Bernie: "Sir, this is a watch that has been very popular among male insects recently. I hope you like it."
The hands were inlaid with red and green gems, the colors were bold, exquisite and precious, and they matched the Zerg's flamboyant taste.
But Bernie unexpectedly thought of a certain silent military female, who, just like her personality, always wore low-key basic colors in her clothing.
Suddenly, the watch no longer looked so good.
Bernie opened his mouth, wanting to refuse: "Thank you, but I don't really like it..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a familiar figure appear in the restaurant. His dull eyes brightened up a lot. Regardless of the reaction of the female insects beside him, he stood up and walked over.
"How did you come?"
When Antar saw Bernie, his heart finally calmed down a lot. He was still so quiet, and in a few words he explained the reason for coming here: "The butler said that you went out without any servants, so I came here because I was worried."
As he spoke, he politely nodded and greeted the noble female insect not far away.
The female insect had long heard that the male insect she was dating had a favorite "female servant", and at first she didn't think it had any impact.
As for male insects, they will have many female insects in their lifetime.
But now he realized that things were not that simple.
The suddenly appearing female soldier seemed to be greeting politely, but her eyes were calm and unfriendly. She was very close to the male insect, as if she was provoking or declaring her sovereignty.
This "matron" had already won just by standing there without saying anything.
It was as if he just showed up in the restaurant and the male insects would leave their dates and walk towards him.
The female insect smiled, closed the watch box, pushed it to the seat opposite, and then stood up. "Sir, it's an honor to have dinner with you tonight. I suddenly have something else to do, so I can't accompany you any longer. I'm sorry."
Bernie was only clear about his feelings for Antar, and he had no way of understanding the thoughts of the noble female insect, so when he saw him about to leave, he politely nodded and said goodbye.
Antar also nodded and said, "Thank you for taking care of Mr. Bernie for so long."
The female insect's smile froze, thinking that this was directly taking this cute male insect into his territory.
Ah.
What a pity, he is such a rare, innocent and interesting male insect.
After returning, Antar was taught a lesson by Bernie's paternal father, Count Cole, and his back was covered with blood from being whipped.
"Do you know you're wrong?"
Antar gritted his teeth and said nothing, cold sweat constantly running down his handsome face.
Earl Cole was so angry that he threw the whip aside: "You!"
He had taken Antar in out of kindness, not to seduce his males! Now he had the audacity to ruin Bernie's dates with other females!
Cole hopes that Bernie will marry a female insect from a similar family background as his queen, so that he won't have to worry about anything else in his life.
And Antar obviously can't do this.
After all, this was the female insect cub he had adopted for so many years, so Cole finally let Antar go.
When he was little, Bernie often asked Antar to tell him stories before he would go to bed. Later, after Antar went to military school, he rarely did these things.
But for some reason, Bernie insisted that Antar must coax him to sleep tonight.
All the insects accepted the identity of this "female servant" and did not stop her.
Bernie was sleeping at the head of the bed, holding Antar's hand, and said, "You said you've been promoted to major general?"
Antar said "hmm".
Bernie's eyes were bright and innocent, and he said cautiously: "Then I will go to my father tomorrow and ask him to let you be my queen, okay? Your military rank is so high, my father will definitely be very happy."
Antar paused: "You want me to be your queen?"
Bernie frowned: "Of course!"
What kind of talk is that? They've been together since childhood, so of course they'll be together forever.
Because of Bernie's actions, the wound on Antar's back was pulled and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Um……"
Bernie realized something was wrong: "What's wrong with you?"
"nothing."
"Nothing. What's your name? And you're sweating."
At this time, Bernie could smell the faint smell of blood in the air. It was the smell of the wound that Antar had not bandaged in his haste to see him.
It was hard to imagine that beneath Antar's delicate face was a body covered in scars. When his shirt was taken off, Bernie stood up and rushed into Earl Cole's study.
This time, his tone was firm and his attitude was serious, and he repeatedly stated that he must make Antar his queen.
"You're fooling around!"
"I'm not kidding! Antar is now a major general, and he's totally worthy of being a female monarch!"
The term "equally matched" does make some sense, especially in the Zerg society where the relationship between males and females is delicate. There is nothing wrong with Cole hoping that his male Zerg cub can be protected by a powerful female Zerg.
But nothing is absolute.
A hero's origin is not judged by his skills. Antar has proved with his strength that he has the ability to match the male insect he likes. Moreover, he is still young and has a bright future.
That night, Bernie had his first big fight with Count Cole because of Antar.
Antar stood outside the study, listening to the quarrel inside, and listening to the male insect expressing his attitude firmly in his childish voice, stating that only he could be the queen of his female.
He felt that his desperate fighting on the battlefield suddenly had other meaning besides glory.
Just like that rainy night many years ago, a delicate white hand pulled him up from the street corner, and from then on, he began to have light and warmth.
After a long time, Bernie came out of the study, took Antar's hand and left.
Count Cole looked at their backs without saying a word, and finally sighed heavily, as if to tacitly agree to something.
Bernie pulled Antar back to his room, took out the medicine box, looked around, and wanted to help his future queen treat the wound. But as a male insect, he was used to being pampered and didn't understand these things.
Finally, Bernie sat at the head of the bed and watched Antar treat his wounds himself.
Antar lowered his eyes uncomfortably and said, "Would you like to turn around? I have too many scars on my body. I'm afraid it would scare you."
The Zerg had effective scar removal medicine, but he didn't buy it. Instead, he saved it to buy a gift for this little male. Now that he had to suddenly show his body to the male, Antar couldn't help but feel inferior and sensitive.
Bernie disagreed and asked, "Why?"
Antar: "The scars on my body... are ugly. Male insects hate scars on military females."
