Bene couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears.

Kata and Jie Li heard the faint crying outside the door and stood there in silence.

Jie Li said disappointedly: "Your Excellency never told me."

Regardless of what happened at school or having to go to the hospital for checkups and tests, Bene never complained.

Even the doctor praised Bene for being braver than other gentlemen. The funny thing is that he was actually proud of it at the time.

I totally failed to notice the grievances you have endured for so long.

"I'm not a qualified guard." Jie Li squatted down dejectedly, and the whole insect was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

He laughed at himself and said, "Even if I told you, I can't do anything. What's the difference from before? You should choose some guards who are better than me..."

"Here we go again," Kata rolled his eyes, "Cheer up."

A punch to the depressed head.

"It hurts so much." Jie Li held his head, feeling even more aggrieved. "I was in so much pain, and you actually hit me."

After saying that, he hugged his knees and curled up into a ball.

"Stand up, you're in the way."

"No," Jie Li turned his head and ignored him, "I'm not blocking your way."

Looking at the big lump squatting on the ground, Kata didn't feel pity for him at all. Instead, he disliked him because he was too big and blocked the way.

"Alas," he took a deep breath and consoled, "Mr. Bene treats you like a house bug, that's why he didn't talk to you."

Tears rolled down the eyes of the "liar" Jie Li. How could he not tell something when he was treated as a house bug? Wouldn't a house bug tell everything?

"Really," Kata really wanted to ignore him, but such a big lump squatting at the door was really annoying, so he patiently explained to him, "It is precisely because he treats you as a house insect that Lord Bene doesn't tell you some things because he is afraid that you will feel uncomfortable."

In fact, it is useless to tell the truth. Minister Bene also knows that regular inspection and testing are necessary after the second cocooning. The growth powder and special nutrients that must be taken are unpalatable, and one must endure the pain of consolidating mental strength.

Even though it tastes bad, even though it's uncomfortable, even though it's tiring, you can't refuse it because it's something you have to experience.

Only by surviving this stage can one truly transform into an independent male insect.

If you stop because of the pain, your ability will only stay where it is. Unless you form a cocoon three times, you will never be able to make any further progress in your life.

Even if I tell Jie Li, it will just make me sad, and it won't change anything.

In addition, after becoming aware of his gender, it is even less likely that Lord Bene would cry in Jie Li's arms like he did before.

Before coming to Qishan, Kata had also come into contact with several nobles. This kind of growing pain is a transformation that every noble must go through.

You are most likely to experience a drastic change in temperament during this period, and most of the time you will release stress outwards, becoming violent and crazy.

A very small number of them will keep it to themselves so as not to worry the female insects around them. These people have a very good relationship with their guards, such as Bene.

But this situation is not good. Doctors will advise male insects to vent their emotions, otherwise they may easily push themselves to collapse.

Anyway, the female insects are strong enough, so even if you vent your anger on them, you won't suffer much harm.

Bene was one of the minority among the minority. The doctor had reminded him that he could vent his emotions to the guards around him, but Bene just laughed it off.

Seeing that he was in good condition, the doctor did not report it, nor did he force guards to guide him.

Who knew that Bene was so good at disguising himself, he didn't look like a male insect at all. It was not until Qi Shan came back that his pretended strength suddenly collapsed.

Kata told Jie Li about similar cases, and Jie Li burst into tears: "Sir, Master Bene, please don't bear the pain. It won't hurt if you are angry with me. I have thick skin and flesh, so I won't get hurt."

This idiot, Kata rolled his eyes again, "If you want to make Lord Bene angry, just tell him this."

It was because Bene treated him as a house bug that he was unwilling to accept the doctor's advice. If this guy rushed over and said, "Sir Bene, don't feel sorry for me, just hit me if you are angry," I would not be hurt.

Isn't it the same as throwing Bene's gentleness to the ground, not only throwing it to the ground, but also stepping on it hard.

Bene may feel that his feelings are being trampled on, or he may be angry that you don't understand him.

Jie Li retracted his head again and curled up into a ball.

"All you can do now is pretend you don't know and try your best to make His Excellency happy."

"is that useful?"

"Do you have any other solution?"

No, Jie Li took a deep breath, swept away the melancholy, took the towel handed to him by Kata, wiped his face hard, stood up, and pretended nothing had happened.

Just then, Bene's mood recovered and Qi Shan pushed open the door.

"What are you doing?"

Two big beasts are standing on the left and right of the door, are they cosplaying as door gods?

Jie Li looked serious and said nothing.

Kata knew that he had just finished crying and was afraid of exposing himself if he spoke. In order not to arouse the suspicion of the two Excellencies, he smiled and said, "Nothing, we were just discussing the guard test, and Jie Li was a little worried."

Jie Li looked at him blankly. Huh? Worried? Why should he worry about the guard test?

"Eh? Is Jie Li worried about the guard test?" Bene spoke, his voice a little hoarse, but still firm, "It's okay, Jie Li, even if you fail the test, I will let you stay!"

Since you have made the request yourself, even if you fail the routine test, you will not be forced to leave. At most, you will be assigned a few more qualified guards.

Jie Li was moved and said, "Thank you, sir. I will definitely do my best!"

How could he let Your Excellency worry about him?

"Sir, I will go to the intensive training hall every day starting today, and I will definitely pass."

Kata hesitated and said, wait, this is an excuse to hide it from you, you have been through so many years of testing and you are not a new guard, how could you fail.

"Yeah, don't worry, Jie Li, I will train with you. Starting tomorrow, I will also strengthen my training every day!"

"Your Mightiness!"

However, the master and the guard had never expected this and were moved by each other's efforts.

Kata was also confused. Should he remind them? Now seeing that they both had recovered their spirits, it would be better not to remind them.

Seeing Kata's hesitation to speak, and then looking at Jie Li's red eyes, it seems that she just cried. I understand that what she just said was probably just to help the female insect maintain her little pride in front of you.

But he didn't expect that Bene really believed it and encouraged Jie Li, and he didn't expect that Jie Li would be led away so easily.

Qi Shan looked at this complicated scene with amusement.

"Okay, let's go have dinner. I'm hungry."

Bene was instantly attracted: "Lanlan, you haven't finished telling me what roasted durian tastes like. Is it really scary?"

"Yeah, some bugs can't accept it, but I like it. Next time I'll take you to try it. You might faint."

"You liar, how could there be such a scary thing? You made me so curious."

"I'm not going to lie, Youpu can't stand the smell."
