The last memory is of a great fire, a fire that destroyed everything, including her own father.

"How exactly did my father-in-law die?"

Wen Huaijin glanced at Chu Yang, whose eyes were red from crying, clenched his fists, and his gaze sharpened.

"It's the Insect King, Lan Zhuo, and the Wen family's insects. It's all because of them. If it weren't for them, Lan He and I would be living a happy life right now."

Gritting his teeth, Wen Huaijin said that his biggest regret was not protecting Lan He. He shouldn't have let him enter the palace that day.

"Your female father is a very gentle insect. It is precisely because he is too gentle and beautiful that he is coveted by the insect king. In order to get Lan He, he invited the Lan family to his birthday banquet. That old bastard actually put drugs in Lan He's food and assaulted him when he was weak."

As Wen Huaijin finished speaking, he punched the wall.

"And afterwards he threatened Lan He, forcing him to continue being his love insect. When Lan He refused, he became enraged and ordered Lan He to marry that trash Wen Rui. When I found out about this, I was planning to elope with Lan He, but he said that the Insect King was using the Lan family to blackmail him, so he couldn't come with me."

"Not long after Lan He married Wen Rui, she became pregnant. It was during this time that Lan Zhuo took advantage of the situation and started an affair with Wen Rui. In order to consolidate their position, the Lan family arranged for Lan Zhuo to marry into the Wen family as well."

Mentioning Lan Zhuo, Wen Huaijin felt a burning hatred. If it weren't for him, Lan He wouldn't have suffered a miscarriage, which had devastated him and left him mentally unstable.

"In order to obtain the position of the female ruler, Lan Zhuo often secretly harmed Lan He, causing Lan He's first egg to be lost before it was even laid. This incident was a great blow to him. During that time, he was in a daze and his mental state was very abnormal. So I would secretly go to see him every day, trying to take him away."

"Later, Lan He became pregnant with the insect egg again. This time, with our protection, he was able to give birth safely. However, before the insect chick hatched, Lan Zhuo found a video from somewhere and falsely accused the insect egg of not being Wen Rui's. This time, for the sake of his unborn chick, he agreed to come with me."

As she said this, Wen Huaijin turned around and looked at Chu Yang gently, taking out a photo from her pocket and handing it to him.

The photo shows Lan He holding her newborn baby, with Wen Huaijin holding them both from behind. The baby in the photo looks very happy, and Chu Yang also noticed that the newborn baby has black hair.

“That’s right, that little bug was you. You hatched right before our eyes. Lan He was so excited that she kept crying. Because we eloped, Wen Rui announced to the public that Lan He had injured him, stripped him of his title as the female ruler, and issued a warrant for his arrest. So the three of us started our life of wandering. Although life was not stable, that period was the happiest time of our lives.”

Looking back on that time, he took Lanhe to many different places, where they saw all kinds of strange natural scenery and experienced different local customs and insects.

“I thought we would be happy forever, but the number of insects chasing us increased. Among them were Wenrui, the Insect King, and Lan Zhuo. That day, we were being chased by a large group of insects. In order to distract them, I had Lan He take you away in the flying vehicle. When I found you again, the flying vehicle and the house next to it were almost burned to ashes. I hate them, I hate them. If it weren't for them, how could Lan He have died?”

Wen Huaijin stared coldly at Chu Yang. He had found many charred corpses in that house, one of which was wearing the ring he had given to Lan He.

"So, to get revenge, I became a space pirate. I'll make them all pay the price."

After listening to Wen Huaijin's account, Chu Yang's last memory suddenly became clear. He remembered that his female father had hidden him in a cave, and he vaguely heard his female father seemingly explaining something, but he was too sleepy at the time to hear clearly.

“My female father hid me in a cave. I waited for him for a long time, but I was so hungry that I left the cave.”

With tears in his eyes, Wen Huaijin reached out and touched Chu Yang's head. He had made Chu Yang suffer all these years.

"Since you know about my background, why didn't you tell me the first time? Why are you only telling me now?"

“If Lan Zhuo hadn’t discovered your identity, I would never have told you in this lifetime. He was the one who orchestrated your accident last time, and now he’s trying to distort the facts and make you acknowledge him as your male father. That’s absolutely unacceptable.”

Wiping the tears from his face with his sleeve, Chu Yang said earnestly to Wen Huaijin.

"I wouldn't have admitted it before I knew, and I'm even less likely to admit it now that I know."

Wen Huaijin nodded in satisfaction and then put the photo away.

"Chu Yang, don't think about revenge. I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you would seek revenge."

Revenge? When he learned the truth just now, Chu Yang did think about revenge, but in that moment, he suddenly thought of the insects at home and his cubs, and hesitated about the idea of ​​revenge.

After emerging from the secret room, Chu Yang's eyes were a little red and swollen. There were many photos of his female father and his wife in the secret room. He took out a photo of himself sleeping in his female father's arms and put it close to his body in the pocket of his inner garment.

"Tao Yu, take them back."

Looking at Wen Huaijin sitting in the wheelchair, Chu Yang was filled with emotion.

"Father, I'm going back."

This "father" came from Chu Yang's heart. Wen Huaijin nodded with tears in his eyes and a smile on his lips.

Li Yizhou was still asleep on the aircraft. When Chu Yang looked at him, he was reminded of Li Yang in those photos. They looked extremely similar.

After taking Li Yizhou home, Chu Yang did not leave immediately. He took out the photo from his clothes and showed it to him.

"Wen Huaijin told you everything?"

"Ah."

Li Yang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and led Chu Yang out of Li Yizhou's room.

"Back then, your female father was the most beautiful insect on the entire Imperial Star. He was gentle and kind. We've known each other since we were little. His health wasn't very good, so he couldn't be a military female, but he liked to cook for us. At that time, Wen Huaijin was still a stray insect. He was almost beaten to death for stealing a bag of nutrient solution. Fortunately, he met Lan He, and since then, he has followed Lan He as a servant insect."

They walked slowly, and Chu Yang listened attentively as Li Yang recounted the past.

"It's a pity that the Insect God is blind, causing Lan He to suffer those painful things. That's why I asked Wen Huaijin to take Lan He away from that wolf's den. I just didn't expect that the Insect Emperor would find them through me. Several times, you were almost put in danger. Later, in order to avoid being monitored by the Insect Emperor, I applied to be stationed on a desolate star for training. It was at that time that Lan He had an accident."

Li Yang's hands were clenched into fists behind his back. When he returned, he learned that Lan He and Zai Zai were gone, and Wen Huai Jin had become a top-level wanted criminal. Later, Wen Huai Jin was removed from the list by the Insect King.

"Alright, go back now. Forget about everything that happened today. You have your own family, and Lan He doesn't want you to avenge him."

After seeing Chu Yang off onto the aircraft and watching him leave, she sighed heavily, her thoughts drifting back to the past. Back then, when Lan He was pregnant for the first time, Li Yang used all his military merits to exchange for the opportunity to raise the insect eggs. Although she couldn't be with him or take care of him, she could let her own cub accompany Lan He and his cub in the future.

"Lan He, from now on, my baby will protect your baby, okay?"

"Well, if my offspring is male, then let them arrange a betrothal for their offspring. That way, we'll be even closer."

Later, Lan He lost his first insect egg, and during that time his mental state was very poor; the insect seemed to have shattered. So after Li Yizhou hatched, he often took his cub to visit Lan He, to keep him company, and to comfort him.
