Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Today is much better, so Qin Yuzhou cooked for himself.

After turning on his personal computer, which had been shut down for several days, Qin Yuzhou told his adjutant Zhang about his leave of absence during his FQ period before shutting it down.

There shouldn't be anything wrong at this point.

But as soon as I turned on the personal terminal, a lot of messages popped up, the most numerous being private messages from Deputy Zhang.

Several documents, as well as surveillance footage.

The text continued: "[General, you seem to have misunderstood Lord Akahoshi. That document is not the one you're referring to.]"

[General, Xiao Huai has incurred a considerable expense these past few days, which seems to have been paid to Lord Chi Xing.]

[It's been confirmed. The document Lord Chixing gave to Xiao Huai was a price list of gifts, likely from the gifts he had given Xiao Huai in the past.]

With a "buzz," Qin Yuzhou's mind went blank for a moment.

He quickly opened the document sent by his adjutant, which was a detailed list of items.

The purchase screenshots, item names, item prices, and even the purchase date and delivery date are included.

Qin Yuzhou: ?

He frowned as he finished reading, and the total price in the end was as high as over a million star coins. It was conceivable that Chi Xing had really spent a lot of money chasing Xiao Huai over the past few years.

The male insect receives a monthly subsidy of 100,000. When investigating Red Star, Qin Yuzhou learned that he only received 50,000 per month, which he used to buy gifts for Xiao Huai.

As Qin Yuzhou looked at the list, he became angry again, but looking at the list he had compiled, it was clear that this was something Chi Xing could not have come up with before.

The possibility that had come to mind before resurfaced in Qin Yuzhou's mind, and he began to believe that Chixing was not the same Chixing as before.

It seems that after he married Akahoshi, Akahoshi became different from the Akahoshi of the past. If I really wronged him...

Qin Yuzhou felt as if his heart had been struck hard, and a dense, sharp pain washed over him.

He left the robot to watch the pot, then hurried upstairs to his study.

The study door opened, and there were no signs of it being disturbed. He searched through his fake documents, and it seemed that none of them were missing.

The computer was playing surveillance footage sent by Lieutenant Zhang.

Chi Xing came out of Qin Yuzhou's villa and got into a hovercar, holding the file bag in his hand.

Qin Yuzhou witnessed this scene that day and concluded that Chi Xing was lying to him, and that it was all an act by Chi Xing to deceive Xiao Huai.

The fact that Chi Xing was going to see Xiao Huai reminded Qin Yuzhou of being blown up in his previous life, and of how the Xiao family had killed all the Qin family members and seized their property.

Since his return, Qin Yuzhou has been making plans, and this time he will take the initiative.

He didn't believe in Chi Xing to begin with, and when he saw this scene, he immediately assumed that Chi Xing was Xiao Huai's worm.

Little did they know, it was all a misunderstanding.

In the video, Chi Xing enters the Chi family and verbally retaliates upon seeing Xiao Huai, showing no signs of ever having liked him before.

This surveillance included not only street cameras but also cameras inside the Chi family compound, and even the audio was recorded.

It was Zhang's adjutant who had the hacker steal it.

In the video, after Chi Xing left, Xiao Huai opened the file and saw that it was the same price list of items that Qin Yuzhou had just seen.

Qin Yuzhou: ...

He couldn't describe his feelings right now; he was both happy that Akahoshi hadn't betrayed him and ashamed that he had misunderstood Akahoshi.

Regardless of whether Chixing is the same Chixing as before, her unrequited love and her changes all prove one thing: Chixing doesn't love Xiao Huai at all, but Qin Yuzhou.

Reflecting on what he had done in the past few days, Akahoshi seemed to want to explain several times, but he was silenced by his mouth and couldn't say anything.

Qin Yuzhou sighed deeply, strode out of the study, and opened the door to that room.

In the dimly lit room, inside a metal cage, Akahoshi was curled up on the bed, her limbs bound by metal chains, looking pitiful and helpless.

Qin Yuzhou's Adam's apple bobbed, and he opened his mouth with difficulty: "Stars..."

The male insect on the bed did not react at all, and the antennae on its head were drooping, which made Qin Yuzhou feel sorry for it.

Qin Yuzhou hurriedly opened the cage and took out a key to unlock the metal handcuffs on Chi Xing's hands.

The sight of the bruises around his wrists and ankles made Qin Yuzhou's heart tremble. His brows furrowed tightly, and he regretted his actions.

"Xingxing, what's wrong?"

Qin Yuzhou's voice was choked with emotion. He leaned closer and realized that Chi Xing's cheeks were flushed, and he had fallen into a deep sleep at some point.

The computer dialed the doctor's number and told him to come over immediately.

Qin Yuzhou picked up Chixing around the waist and hurriedly walked to the bridal chamber where the two insects had lived for some time.

"I was wrong, Star, please pay attention to me."

Perhaps out of sheer fear, Qin Yuzhou's voice choked with emotion.

As soon as Akahoshi was placed on the bed, her hand instinctively grabbed Qin Yuzhou's hand, which was limp and weak.

Her chapped lips parted slightly, and Akahoshi's voice was barely audible, like a murmur in her sleep: "Ayu..."

Qin Yuzhou's suppressed tears finally burst forth.

He grasped Akahoshi's hand in return, repeatedly apologizing, "I'm sorry, Akahoshi, I shouldn't have disbelieved you..."

He had long suspected that Chixing was not the same Chixing from his previous life. He should have been certain long ago. His star had been so good to him, how could it be the male insect that killed him?

Qin Yuzhou was filled with remorse. Xingxing had been so good to him, yet he had hurt her.

After the doctor arrived, he carefully examined Akahoshi, looked at Qin Yuzhou, and said:

"Ahem, General, His Excellency Akashi seems to be tired. Well, it would be best to be more moderate in your sexual activities..."

His words were tactful, and Qin Yuzhou couldn't help but blush.

After being a celibate for over twenty years, I can't help but get close to Xingxing after breaking my vow of celibacy... plus the FQ period a few days ago.

"Okay, you should heal him first. As for how to make up for it later, just get the effective medicine. Star coins are not a problem."

Akahoshi's fever wasn't particularly severe, so I simply gave him some fever reducer, some ointment for his wrists and ankles, and a few bottles of tonics.

As the doctor left, he added, "Tell him to avoid overexertion."

Chixing was unaware that because of a doctor's words, he would often go ten days or half a month without eating meat for the next few years.

*

When Akahoshi woke up again, he saw the sunlight streaming in through the window, and the bedding on the bed was warm from the sun, which made him turn over in bed.

There was no clanging sound in her ears. Akahoshi opened her eyes. The metal handcuffs were gone from her wrists, leaving only a ring of slightly purplish marks.

He looked around and found himself back in his original room.

250: [You have a fever, and the Immortal Lord is crying and apologizing. Tsk tsk tsk, it's like a crematorium scene from an old-fashioned angst novel.]

Chixing imagined Ayu crying and apologizing in his mind. She must look so pitiful. No, he had to comfort Ayu.

250: [Didn't we say not to forgive him easily?]

Akahoshi: [Then I'll ignore him.]

"Xingxing, you're awake. How are you feeling? Are you still feeling unwell?" Qin Yuzhou brought in a bowl of porridge, his eyes red.

Not getting a reply from Chixing, Qin Yuzhou said again, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. Why don't you hit me to vent your anger?"
