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

Lan Yi'an is not just a pretty face. Although his mental strength level is only A, he got full marks in all his courses when he was in school.

In recent years, under his management, the Lan family's business has stabilized. Not only has the problem of capital shortage been solved, but they have also made a small profit, although it is still a bit far from reaching 10 billion.

Today he was wearing a black suit, and his long silver-gray hair was tied up, making him look clean and neat.

"Yi'an, are you coming home for dinner tonight?"

Ye Lanzhi asked him a question when she passed by.

"Father, I won't be eating at home tonight. I'm going to D06 to sign a contract. They've come up with a new script, and as an investor, I need to check it out. I'll eat there while I'm at it."

"Oh, okay? Then wait a moment, I'll go buy some cakes for you to take to Chu Yang's kids."

Lan Yi'an arrived at Star D06 with his tote bag. The receptionist recognized him and greeted him with a smile.

He easily found his way to Xu Le's office and placed the things he was carrying on his desk.

“My father-in-law bought these especially for the babies.”

Xu Le's eyes brightened slightly as he adjusted his frameless glasses.

"On behalf of my children, I thank you, Father-in-law."

Everyone was already in the meeting room. As the only investor, Lan Yi'an naturally sat next to Wang Xingyu and picked up the script in front of him.

"President, the Female Lord has run away with the baby again."

Just by looking at the title of the script, I feel like it's another forced chase drama.

"Ahem, I can't possibly play the CEO again this time, can I?"

Wang Xingyu cleared his throat. In the last drama, because he played a domineering CEO, he was immediately surrounded by a lot of fans, some of whom even took off their clothes in front of him, keeping him in bed for several days. So this time, he absolutely refused to appear on any program.

“Mr. Wang, if you don’t play the male insect, we won’t be able to achieve the effect we want. We can’t have the public’s perception of the president as fat and ugly.”

Liu Yuejin smiled. This script was more interesting than the last one, and with his previous experience, he was able to produce even better results this time.

"I've been thinking about this. This domineering CEO role doesn't necessarily have to be played by a male insect; a female insect can also play the role."

After he said that, everyone agreed that a female insect could indeed be cast. However, there weren't any suitable female insects who matched the image and temperament of the CEO, and with the Insect King's covert suppression, many entertainment companies were hesitant to collaborate, and the company didn't have many insect actors it had trained.

"I think Lord Bluewing An is very suitable for this role."

Xu Le's words immediately attracted the attention of all the insects, and everyone looked at Lan Yi'an.

"Sure, I'd love to experience what it's like to act in a movie too."

I used to envy those big stars. They dressed very fashionably and trendily, especially Ling Shengjing. As a male insect, he had a fairly well-proportioned figure and decent looks at that time.

He became infatuated with Ling Shengjing after just one glance at the nutritional supplement commercial he was endorsing on TV, and he paid a lot for it. Looking back now, he realizes he was completely blinded by love back then.

After being confirmed to play the CEO in this drama, Lan Yi'an has been keeping the script in hand, studying the lines. When he's at home, he even gets his female and male fathers to rehearse with him.

Everything was ready, but a few days before filming was scheduled to begin, a huge incident occurred on the Imperial Star. All insects were forbidden from entering or leaving the Imperial Star, and military females were constantly patrolling the streets and the air.

"Yi'an, let's stay home for now and not go out. The situation outside isn't good."

Ye Lanzhi brought the small cakes she had made to the living room. Their insect network was not extensive, so they couldn't get any information at all under these circumstances.

Lan Yi'an nodded with a serious expression. He was worried about his son. The Ling family not only refused to relinquish custody, but also denied him the right to visit.

So he decided to fly over and take a look, even if it meant forcing his way in, just to see the male son he had given birth to.

When he arrived at the Ling family's door, he happened to see Ling Shengjing embracing two scantily clad sub-females as they disembarked from the aircraft.

"Oh, I thought it was some stray bug. I didn't expect it to be you. What's wrong? Haven't seen me in so long? Missed me? Want me to comfort you?"

Ling Shengjing had been drinking, his face was slightly flushed, and his eyes were full of disgust. He put his arm around the waist of one of the sub-females, and his other hand reached into the sub-female's clothes, which had almost no covering.

The sub-female also whispered dreamily in his ear. Not to be outdone, the other sub-female quickly moved closer, cupped his face, and began to nibble at him.

Lan Yi'an was disgusted to the point of vomiting at this scene. How could she have been so blind to have fallen for such a thing?

"yue~"

She gagged softly a few times, then quickly patted her chest.

"I came to see the baby."

"Hahaha, the only reason you're letting me look at you now is because you've given birth to a male offspring. But my little one has a new female father now and doesn't recognize you as his female father anymore."

Seeing his cheeky expression, Lan Yi'an, unusually, held back, constantly reassuring herself that it was all for the sake of seeing her baby.

"You don't believe me? Then I'll show you."

Ling Shengjing made a video call, and the other end answered quickly. On the grass in the garden sat a fat male insect larva with a face full of scars. Around him were a circle of fawning insect servants who kept feeding him candy, cakes and other snacks.

"My lord~ Look how much fun I'm having with my little one."

"Father, I want to eat that rainbow cake again."

In the video, the male insect is seen acting affectionately towards a female insect beside him.

The female insect noticed Lan Yi'an through the video and a wicked smile appeared on her lips.

"Oh dear, do you think your female father is better, or your previous female father?"

"Hehe, of course the female father is better. Lan Yi'an is not worthy to be my female father at all. His status is not worthy of our Ling family."

Standing at the door, Lan Yi'an felt a pang of pain in his heart. He never expected that his beloved son would say such a thing.

"Very good, very good indeed, Ling Shengjing, you will regret this one day."

Gritting his teeth, Lan Yi'an glared at him fiercely, determined to abandon both father and son.

After returning from the Ling family, he fell ill again. Only after recovering did he learn that the old insect emperor had passed away and the new emperor, Xiao Mufeng, had ascended the throne.

He thought everything would be as usual, but he became the Queen of Insects, which dealt an even more severe blow to the Chu Group, forcing many businesses to break their contracts and even halting the film and television productions that were previously in the works.

Even under these circumstances, the contract between the Lan family and the Chu Group continued. He firmly believed that Chu Yang would return, and that once he came back, all the problems would be solved.

The Lan family has had a tough time these past few years of suppression, but thankfully they've made it through and will soon be enjoying better times.

Because Chu Yang is coming back soon.

The entire StarNet was filled with news of Chu Yang becoming a peace ambassador between the Zerg and Orcs.

After looking at the photos on the StarNet, Lan Ce burst into tears. Finally, there was some news about this kid. He knew that General Li Yang and the Marshal had been searching for him in secret for many years, and their worst-case scenario was that he had disappeared and would never come back.

"Father, you said that after Chu Yang came back, he..."

Lan Yi'an hesitated, feeling a little uneasy. Their relationship had only been so-so before, and back then she had even helped Xiao Mufeng.

Seeing what he meant, Lan Ce smiled and shook his head.

"No way, Chu Yang is a good worm. He let you go back then because of me, which means he forgave you. Otherwise, how could you have gotten out alive?"

With his father's words, Lan Yi'an felt somewhat comforted.

The following year, the entire Lan family was filled with joy because Chu Yang was about to return.

Lan Ce even booked a table at the best hotel on the Imperial Star so that the whole family could have a good get-together.

But when they saw Chu Yang again, it was in the palace, where Chu Yang was wearing the robes of the Insect Emperor and was holding a coronation ceremony.

Although it all seemed unbelievable, when Chu Yang returned, he called Lan Ce "uncle" in front of all the reporters and nodded to Lan Yi'an.

Years later, the Ling family was reported by Chong for secretly embezzling star coins from a project. As a result, the authorities launched a strict investigation, and the once arrogant Ling family was exiled to a desolate planet to mine.

"Aren't you going to leave your male son behind?"

Chu Yang looked at the list of Ling family members who were about to be exiled to a desolate planet, and asked him without even looking up.

"No, after so many years of being disciplined by the Ling family, he has become the next Ling Shengjing. Why would I keep such a bastard? To celebrate the New Year?"

Hearing Lan Yi'an say that, Chu Yang looked up from the pile of documents he needed to process and gave him a thumbs up.

After leaving the palace, he made a special trip to the prison to see Ling Shengjing. When he saw him kneeling at his feet, he couldn't help but smirk, his mockery directed at him.

"Oh dear, I never thought that you, Ling Shengjing, would have such a day."

"Father, please save me! I was born of you!"

Looking at the two slovenly, unkempt, fat, and greasy male insects, Lan Yi'an took a step back in disgust, afraid that their hands would touch her high-end shoes.

"Haha, I don't have a man like you. Don't try to claim kinship with me. I came here to see you kneel down, and now I've seen it. What goes around comes around! Awesome! Hahaha!!"

Lan Yi'an left the prison laughing. The sunshine outside was wonderful, warming his body and making him feel incredibly comfortable.
