Chapter 191: Giving Face
Before the door could be closed, Hughes fell to his knees.

“…Master, it’s all my fault for being useless. I only see you now.”

Xius's head was rubbing against Chi Yin's legs, he complained to himself in a wronged manner.

"If I were a little stronger, I wouldn't have to rely on the Worm Queen and could protect you well, and you wouldn't have ended up staying in this hellhole of a White Tower."

"It's all my fault. It's all my fault that the master has suffered."

Well, it wasn’t that hard actually.

With three meals a day, plus afternoon tea, she even felt she was getting fat.

Chi Yin stroked the kitten's head and said helplessly, "Your temper... Oh, that's enough."

"Hmm?" Xius raised his head with red eyes and looked at Chi Yin nervously: "Did I accidentally annoy the master again?"

Chi Yin felt even more helpless.

It's not common to have such an easily bullied character. I don't know where she met Xiu Si in the first place, and how she tricked him into this state.

"Master?" Xius shook Chi Yin's sleeve gently, "Why don't you speak? Are you in a bad mood?"

Chi Yin retracted his thoughts and shook his head, "No, go and close the door first."

"Okay." Xius sniffed, took small steps, and quickly went to close the door of the counseling room.

After closing the door, Xius continued to lie on Chi Yin's thighs, looking up, and asked persistently:
"Master, is it my bad temper that makes you angry? Tell me about it. How can I change if you don't tell me..."

Xiusi's voice became lower and lower, and the cat's tail behind his waist wrapped around Chi Yin's calf, and the tip of the tail circled in disappointment.

"Or am I not well behaved enough?"

Hughes frowned in worry. Was his disguise not good enough?
No, how did it become about being well behaved? Is this the way a normal person thinks?
Chi Yin's mouth twitched, and she grabbed the cat's tail that was tickling her, "It has nothing to do with you, I just think that someone with your personality will easily be bullied."

Hughes was stunned.

When did he become vulnerable to bullying?
Chi Yin did not notice the strangeness in Xius's eyes, and taught calmly:

"If something goes wrong in the future, don't keep looking for the reasons on yourself, blame others instead."

"Like... a weird bug queen?"

Chi Yin still remembered that sinister guy, it was he who caused Duan Jing's mental strength to deteriorate.

Xiu Si blinked and was stunned for a moment before reacting.

Ahhh, the master cares about him!

In the master's heart, he is more important than the insect queen!

The blush on his cheeks grew hotter and hotter, spreading to the tips of his ears and neck. Zeus looked like a ripe and juicy strawberry, making people want to take a bite.

Xius' eyes sparkled with surprise, and he hugged Chi Yin, unable to contain his excitement:

"That's great, the master cares about me and has me in his heart!"

Chi Yin was held in the boy's arms with a confused look on his face.

The boy’s arms were not very broad, and because he was young, they seemed a little frail, but they were very warm and filled with deep attachment.

Chi Yin looked at Xius's handsome face and couldn't help but feel stunned, and an inappropriate thought arose in his mind.

It looks like there is really a lot of water.

If you take a bite, it might burst with juice.

"Master?" Xius tilted his head. "You are looking at my mouth. Do you want to kiss me?"

The young boy was inexperienced and spoke directly, not realizing how ambiguous his words were.

He only knew that his beloved master was looking at him.

He also often stares at his owner's mouth, and every time he wants to kiss and lick it. When the owner looks at his mouth, he probably has the same idea as him.

Thinking of this, Xiu Si closed his eyes expectantly and offered his red lips.

"Master, I want to kiss you too..." "I don't!" Chi Yin was extremely frightened and hurriedly looked away, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, why did your face change?"

Chi Yin rubbed the dimples that had disappeared at the corners of Xius' mouth, and touched the freckles that had appeared on Xius' cheeks.

"Strange, it can't be wiped off..." Chi Yin said curiously: "It doesn't look like makeup, how come it looks like a different face? Are your makeup skills so good?"

Xius opened his eyes in disappointment and explained with a pout, "No, because I cooperated with the Insect Queen, and this face was given to me by it."

"After all, the insect mother's aura is too eye-catching. I am the only one who can do the job of finding someone."

Giving face? Such a niche word!
"..." Chi Yin's eyelids twitched, and she suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

After a long while, Chi Yin finally spoke with difficulty: "What do you mean by giving away face?"

My goodness, you still want to give away your face?
Could it be that the Insect Queen took off her own face and stuck it on Zeus's face?
Hiss, that's a bit disgusting.

Chi Yin's expression was indescribable, and she moved away from Xius without leaving a trace.

Xiu Si was puzzled: "Master, why are you so far away from me? Do you think this face is ugly?"

"It's okay. Once we escape the main planet, I will lose this face and return to my original appearance. I will still be your cute kitty."

Chi Yin opened his eyes wide and grabbed Xius fiercely, "You, you mean, after changing the face, you can throw it away at any time? What is going on!?"

Zeus nodded obediently: "Yes, the insect mother has a total of nine faces. It uses four of them itself. The remaining faces can be used by itself or given to others."

As he spoke, Hughes touched the freckles on his face and said blushingly:
"Because I was in a hurry to get to the White Tower, this face I have now is just a random imaginary one. It is indeed a bit ugly."

In other words, apart from the face given to Zeus, the Worm Queen still has four faces left.

If he had given her a face...

Chi Yin's face twitched with excitement and his heart began to beat wildly.

She suddenly thought of a good way to escape.

Chi Yin took a deep breath and tried to calm his breathing: "Xius, do you know where the insect mother is?"

"It's in Hive No. 3, a little far from the main star." Xius said, "Master, do you still want to go to the Zerg?"

Chi Yin nodded heavily.

"Okay then." Xius originally wanted to rescue Chi Yin from the White Tower, break the contract with the Insect Mother, and take Chi Yin away to a place where no one knew them and he would be the only male favorite to serve his master.

But if Chi Yin wants to go to Zerg, then go ahead.

Without any hesitation, Xius quickly adjusted the follow-up plan in his mind.

"Master, let's escape tonight!" Because he was going to see the insect mother again, Xiusi's voice was a little muffled:

"I've heard about it all. The Imperials have locked you up in the White Tower, forcing you to direct four or five sentries every day."

At this point, Hughes angrily cursed: "This is clearly abuse, they are so bad!"

Wait, where did you hear this?

Chi Yin was very upset.

Five sentries a day seemed to be her own request.

"Hmph, let's go now!" Xius became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He grabbed Chi Yin's hand, stood up and was about to leave.

Chi Yin struggled for a moment, then sat there motionless.

Xius turned his head and said hesitantly: "Master, are you reluctant to leave?"

Chi Yin gritted her teeth: "No, I want to wait a few more days."

It won’t be too late for her to leave after Ji Chengyun hands her the finished medicine.

Otherwise it would be such a pity to just leave like this.
