I controlled the entire Zerg race with my superb culinary skills.

Li Yang sat down next to Wen Huaijin. The two sat side by side, their eyes fixed on Lan He's photo on the wall.

"Want some? He made it."

Wen Huaijin took a handful of candy from his pocket and placed it under Lan He's photo, then took out another candy and gave it to Li Yang.

I took the candy, peeled off the transparent wrapper, and found a brown toffee.

When you put it in your mouth, the rich milky flavor is accompanied by a sweet and salty taste, and it's crispy and savory when you chew it.

Didn't you tell him about his background?

"No, but he did call me 'father-in-law'."

He had waited many years for this call of "father," and finally, he would hear it before he died.

"Then let's not tell him for now, let us do some things ourselves."

"Yes, but that's not fair to Yizhou."

The look of heartache in Li Yang's eyes vanished in an instant when he thought of Li Yizhou.

"There's no such thing as fairness when it comes to relationships. If they're meant to be, they'll end up together even without saying anything. If they're not meant to be, forcing them together will only result in a superficial relationship."

The two insects looked at the photo with tenderness in their eyes, and even lowered their voices, because Lan He couldn't stand the slightest noise when she was sleeping.

The night after Chu Yang returned, Youyou and Niannian insisted on sleeping with him.

Chu Yang, who dotes on his cubs, and the other three insects also spoiled them by making room for the two little ones.

The two kids are currently at their most energetic stage, jumping and playing on the bed until late at night, when they finally couldn't stay still any longer.

So, a baby was sleeping under each of Chu Yang's armpits, and he was like a protective mother hen. Lying in bed, listening to the two babies' breathing, his heart was melting. He pinched the babies' chubby little bottoms with both hands, healing his exhausted body and mind.

Reflecting on his experiences over the past few days, Chu Yang couldn't help but worry again. The matter hadn't been fully investigated yet. He was lucky to have escaped death this time, but what about next time? If they couldn't find a way to deal with him, would they take revenge on his insects?

Although male insects have privileges in the insect race, most of the power is still in the hands of female insects. Given his current situation without any special strength, he might be controlled by other insects in the future.

After a night of self-reflection and strategic thinking, Chu Yang decided that he would join the army. He believed that by using his male insect advantage, he could make a good impression in the military. With military merits and official positions, he could also provide more protection for his insect family members.

After making up his mind, he told Shen Nanxi and the others about his idea, and they all agreed.

"My lord, we all support this idea, and with your abilities, you should be promoted very quickly."

After taking a sip of porridge, Xu Le spoke slowly and deliberately, already able to imagine what Chu Yang would be like as a future Zerg marshal.

"Yes, didn't the military appreciate the lord's heroic performance on the battlefield last time? They certainly won't refuse us this time."

Chu Xinhang also looked at Chu Yang excitedly. Becoming a female soldier is the dream of every female insect, but the selection criteria for female soldiers are very strict. He was rejected because his mental strength did not meet the requirements.

Amidst the praise from the insects, Chu Yang couldn't help but imagine his own heroic moments of being invincible on the battlefield.

After finishing his meal, he couldn't wait to go to the military headquarters on planet D06. It wasn't conscription time yet, so if he wanted to enlist, he had to go to the military headquarters to inquire about the situation first.

"Your Excellency Chu Yang, I do not have the authority to make a decision on your request at the moment. I need to report this matter to the Star Lord and the higher military command first."

"Okay, thank you for your help then."

After leaving the military headquarters, Chu Yang went straight to Li Panxiong. He wanted to join the army as soon as possible so that he could catch the good time at the end of the year to go to the battlefield and reap a wave of military merits.

"Lord Chu Yang, what brings you here?"

In the office, Li Panxiong greeted Chu Yang with a smile and led him to sit on the sofa. Then he had his secretary bring over tea and water.

Since they were all familiar with each other, Chu Yang didn't need to be subtle and directly told them that he wanted to join the army. His requirements were not high; as long as he could get into the military, he didn't care even if he was just an ordinary soldier.

"Hehe, Lord Chu Yang is truly righteous. Sending male insects to the battlefield can greatly boost the morale of the female soldiers and also allow them to receive inhibitor treatment more quickly. However, the battlefield is dangerous, so you..."

Li Panxiong felt somewhat helpless. Chu Yang was being watched by many large insects, and if something happened to him, how would he explain himself?

"It's alright, I have the ability to protect myself, and the mental suppression from the alien beasts is ineffective against male insects, which will allow me to kill enemies more effectively."

After thinking for a while, Li Panxiong felt that he couldn't make the decision on this matter, but he could help submit the application form. As for whether it would be approved in the end, it would depend on the decision of the higher authorities.

"Since Lord Chu Yang is so determined, I will help you write an application form for joining the team. Once the military approves it, you can directly join the military."

"Okay, thank you, Lord Li."

After leaving the office, Chu Yang opened his personal terminal, found Li Yizhou, and sent him a message.

"General Li, are you free? I said I'd treat you to dinner last time, I don't know if you're free recently."

Li Yizhou, who was training new female soldiers at the training ground, looked at the information on his personal computer, his lips trembled slightly, and then he closed the personal computer interface.

"Hey, did you notice the general just now? He seemed to smile."

Lin Xuan glanced up unintentionally and saw him looking at the messages. The fleeting smile on his lips gave Lin Xuan a whiff of gossip.

"Is there any need to guess? The only one who could elicit such a reaction from a general is Lord Chu Yang."

Rock whispered in Lin Xuan's ear, "Before, when I tried to match them up, the general wasn't happy. Now look at him, he's almost hooked by any little news from her."

“Rock, Lin Xuan, you two still have the mind to whisper? Do you think the training intensity isn’t enough? Perfect, you two can set an example for these new insects and lead them in training.”

Lin Xuan and Luo Ke looked at each other dejectedly, then took off their coats and joined the group of new insects in training. The two insects complained in unison.

"Sigh, I should have just kept quiet."

"Let's practice for another three hours."

Upon hearing the general's words, the two men made a zipping motion to shut up, implying that the intensity of today's training would likely force them to crawl back home.

After leaving the training ground, Li Yizhou sent a message to his female father.

"Father, I won't be going home for dinner tonight."

Then she replied to Chu Yang.

"Then let's do it tonight."

Chu Yang, who was waiting for a reply, slapped his thigh excitedly when he saw Li Yizhou's response.

"Brother, what's making you so happy?"

After leaving Li Panxiong's place, Chu Yang went straight to the hospital. After having his blood drawn, he had nothing to do, so he carried Niannian to Shen Nanxi's office.

"Tonight I'm hosting a dinner party for Li Yizhou at home, hoping he'll pull some strings for me, otherwise my application to go to the military will easily be rejected."

Hearing him say that, Shen Nanxi felt that he should indeed treat Chu Yang to a meal, so he specially asked Chu Yang to go back early to make preparations, so as not to neglect the general.

Before going home, Chu Yang went to the mall and bought a lot of groceries and fruit. No matter where you are, the principle of having connections makes things easier is the same.

After shopping and returning home, I also sent a message to Wang Xingyu and Li Hui, inviting them to dinner that evening, so they would have someone to keep them company.
