"Ryan wants to eat that." Ryan blinked, and pointed to the whitebait egg custard in front of him.For Ryan, this dish is simply never tired of eating.

The dining table is actually not particularly big, but it is still too difficult for the little bug cubs with short hands and short legs to reach.

Aiga stretched out his long arms and sent the plate to Ryan's small bowl.

Ryan grinned at him and ate happily.

Uncle Aika is a good uncle!

Caesar watched the interaction between the two of them, hesitated to speak, and swallowed the words after thinking about it.Forget it, anyway, the marshal likes to spoil the little bug cubs.

After the meal, Ai Jia did not leave immediately as Caesar expected, but stayed and told Ryan the story of his learning mechs at the Central Star Military Academy.

Ryan hugged Caesar's neck and coquettishly refused to let his father go, so Caesar had to sit and listen.

But after all, he is not very interested in this aspect, so he can only go in one ear and out the other, being an incompetent student.

When Ai Jia talked about his field of interest, he could be called eloquent, which was completely different from the cold and reticent image he usually left for other insects.

But his speaking speed was unhurried, making Ryan's eyes light up and Caesar's hearing... drowsy.

Suddenly, Ai Jia's voice became quieter, and Ryan, who was listening vigorously, pointed behind him: "Hush."

Ryan turned his head and found that his father had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Ai Jia lightly carried Ryan out of Caesar's arms, found another blanket, and covered Caesar carefully.

After Xiao Xiongzi fell asleep, he looked more obedient than usual, his thick eyelashes fluttered slightly with the ups and downs of his breathing, which made Ai Jia's heart tremble too.

Ai Jia stared at Xiao Xiongzi's sleeping face earnestly for a while, straightened up and wanted to go to Ryan, but when he turned his head, he found that Ryan was standing not far behind him, looking at him with a slightly strange expression.

Aiga: "..."

Two worms, one big and one small, came to the garden. Ai Jia hugged Ryan onto the swing, tied him with a safety rope, and pushed him to swing gently.

"Does Ryan like it here?"

Ryan smiled sweetly and obediently, showing his white baby teeth: "I like it!"

There are so many interesting things, the house is so big, it can fit his toys, of course I like it!

"What else does Ryan like?"

Ryan replied without hesitation: "Lollipop!"

"..." Ai Jia thought he would answer the mecha.

"But Dad will be upset, so he can't eat more." Ryan added sensiblely.

Ai Jia sighed with emotion: "Ryan is so good."

"Daddy likes obedient little bug cubs, so Ryan should be obedient." Ryan blinked his blue eyes.

Aika raised a hand and stroked his hairy head.Ryan didn't hide, but squinted his eyes and rubbed against his palm.

Caesar was still a little dazed when he woke up from the sofa.Looking out the window, it was already dark.

He sat up suddenly, looked around but didn't see the figure of the little worm, and quickly shouted: "Ryan!"

"Dad!" Hearing his voice, Ryan ran over with little yellow chicken slippers.

Caesar pulled Ryan into his arms and looked up and down: "Dad accidentally fell asleep."

Although the butler robot's cub-rearing program was always on, Caesar was still worried that Ryan would stay by himself.

Ryan seemed to understand what he meant, and stretched out his small hand to pat him on the back, expressing comfort: "Uncle Aika said that Dad was too tired, so he took Ryan to play in the garden."

What Ryan wants to express is that you don't have to worry about not being able to take care of yourself.

Caesar then remembered that there was another bug in the house, and looked around: "Where's Uncle Aiga?"

"In the kitchen." Ryan replied childishly.

Caesar carried Ryan into the kitchen, only to find that Ai Jia was actually preparing dinner.

Hearing the sound, Ai Jia turned around and showed him a very shallow smile: "Just now Ryan said he was hungry, so I wanted to make him something to eat."

Ryan rubbed his belly, blinking his eyes.

Caesar wanted to take over and replace him, but Ai Jia continued: "It's just a matter of checking my noon study results."

Very good, well-founded, Caesar has nothing to say.

So he carried Ryan back to the living room, and called out cartoons for Ryan to watch, but his mind had already drifted to the kitchen, and he glanced there from time to time.

Marshal is really a nice guy... oh no, bug.

Contrary to Caesar's expectations, the marshal's craftsmanship is actually not bad.

Although the dishes he prepared were not from the world Caesar was familiar with, but the more common cooking methods of Zongxing, but the taste was not much better than the ones in the restaurant.

At least Ryan ate very happily, although he hasn't found any food that Ryan doesn't like.

...just a little pig bug.

After Ai Jia left, Ryan was taken for a walk in the small garden by Caesar.

"Dad, Ryan wants to go for a walk."

Ryan looked up at Caesar.

Caesar was taken aback: "Don't Ryan like the garden at home?" It was because of this small garden that he bought the house.

Ryan shook his head, and touched his bulging belly with a bitter face: "Ryan eats too much."

It turned out that the small garden was not enough for him to digest.

Caesar couldn't help holding Ryan's little hand tightly: "Okay—let's go for a walk outside."

Although it was completely dark, there should be no danger due to bright lights near the residential area.

Ryan was led obediently by his father, wearing a coat in the shape of a little penguin, and the hat on the coat was still shaking with the movement of his body.

"Dad—" Ryan suddenly called out, "That garden is so beautiful!"

Caesar lowered his head and looked in the direction of his finger. It was the garden of a neighbor's house nearby.

It is indeed very beautifully managed, the flowers are full of flowers, and they look even more colorful under the illumination of the night lights.

Ryan pulled Caesar over there: "Let's take a closer look."

Little Chong Cub's strength was not strong, but he couldn't stop Caesar from pampering him, so he could only follow his strength to walk there.

Ryan grabbed the fence of the garden, his eyes widened and he sighed: "Wow——"

Caesar was pulling him from behind. After all, Xiao Chong Cub's stature is too small, and it is not impossible to get in here accidentally.

Suddenly, a small voice came from the side, but the tone was very alert: "Who are you?"

Caesar followed the reputation and found that it was actually a small bug cub, with brown curly hair sticking to his cheeks obediently, like a little doll, but he was standing in the garden not far away, looking towards this side with a vigilant expression on his face .

It should be the bushes blocking him, Caesar hadn't noticed his existence just now.

He hurriedly brought Ryan back, and explained to the strange little worm: "We—"

It was fine if he didn't open his mouth, but when he opened his mouth, the little worm became even more vigilant, and ran towards the house without looking back.

...I tripped halfway and almost fell.

After a while, an adult worm came out with the little worm cub.

It was still a male insect, Caesar saw the emerald green insect pattern on the side of his neck.

The cub followed closely behind the male, showing hostility, as if facing some bad insect.

Seeing Caesar, the adult male was taken aback for a moment, and then exclaimed in surprise, "Little Diamond?"

"...Hi." Although it was a bit embarrassing to be called by this name offline, but the other party knew him, at least he and Ryan would not be regarded as some weird bad bugs who were spying on other bugs' gardens.

Under the gracious invitation of the male, Caesar had no choice but to bring Ryan into his house as a guest.

After exchanging pleasantries, Caesar learned that the male worm was named Jiada, the female lord was a general in the army, and the little worm cub was named Nuo Xi, the cub of him and the female lord.

Although he had known for a long time that most of them were family members of high-ranking military officials, it was the first time that Nishizawa knew how high these "high-ranking officials" were after having direct contact. After all, the general was already an absolute high-ranking official in the army.

...Although he is definitely not as tall as Ai Jia, the marshal of the empire.

"Because there are only Nuo Xi and I at home, and his female father is always away, so Nuo Xi is very afraid that some bad bugs will hurt us."

Jiada said helplessly, but with a gentle expression on his face, he touched Nuoxi's little head: "He is not hostile to you, don't be afraid, Ryan."

Ryan was not afraid at first, but now seeing Nuoxi looking over with embarrassment, he raised his head: "Ryan is not afraid!"

Also a very proud look.

Both adults were amused by him, and even Nuo Xi, who had a serious face, showed a curious expression.

Caesar patted Ryan on the shoulder lightly: "Ryan, go say hello to Brother Nuoxi."

Ryan thought that he was already a relatively mature little bug cub in terms of sociality, so he walked over and stretched out his hand to Nuoxi: "Brother Nuoxi, my name is Ryan."

Nuoxi raised her head and looked at her male father, and then at Caesar. Seeing that the two guardians had no objections, she took Ryan's hand and shook it.

He was older than Ryan, but he was more reserved than Ryan: "Ryan, hello."

Caesar and Jiada were both amused by the mature social gestures of the two cubs. Upon hearing their laughter, Nuoxi quickly withdrew her hand and looked at her male father in bewilderment, as if asking herself Not doing anything wrong.

It was Ryan, who pulled his hand up again in dissatisfaction, and shook it vigorously.

The little worms in the cartoons always shake hands in such a large way!

Nuo Xi seemed to be infected by Ryan's enthusiasm, and his cold expression gradually thawed out. After a while, the two little bug cubs got into the corner of the living room by themselves, secretly talking about something.

Jia Da looked at Nuo Xi who was rarely so lively, and said to Caesar with emotion: "You must bring Ryan to play more, I haven't seen Nuo Xi so happy for a long time."

Caesar also had a good impression of this familiar male insect, and asked curiously: "Nuo Xi seems to be afraid of strange insects?"

To be honest, Nuo Xi's fearlessness was even comparable to that of Caesar himself.

On the contrary, it is Ryan, who is familiar and happy, and has a personality similar to Garda.

Jiada, who was still smiling all over his face, restrained his smile slightly, and sighed softly.

"Before we moved here, the security level in the residential area was not as high as here. Once, Nuoxi opened the door to a stranger who didn't know, and almost... Fortunately, our neighbors discovered something wrong in time, and called the police. The bad bug was taken away. I found out later that the bug had been wandering around for a long time, and it became malicious because it saw that there were only male bugs and a small bug cub in our house."

"After Nuo Xi's female father came back from the military, he taught him for a long time not to open the door to strangers, and not to pay attention to strangers' accusations. Now that they have moved, it has become much safer, but Nuo Xi is still very friendly to any strangers. Guarded, and his personality has become introverted."

With that said, Jia Da looked at the two little heads that had already gathered together in the corner: "However, he should like Ryan very much."

Ryan was sitting on the floor face to face with Nuo Xi, looking curiously at the beautiful brother bug: "Brother Nuo Xi, do you like mechas?"

Nuoxi thought for a while, then shook her head: "I don't really like it."

"Then... do you like lollipops? Ryan likes lollipops the most!"

Nuoxi still shook her head: "I don't like it very much."

"...Then what do you like?" Ryan was genuinely curious.

Nuoxi still said the same thing: "I don't know."

Ryan was discouraged and pursed his mouth: "Why don't you know anything?"

Nuoxi didn't answer anymore, she lowered her head and pulled the drawstring on her clothes.

Ryan has never seen such a cold peer. He moved his head closer and blinked his eyes: "Then I'll take brother Nuoxi to try, and you'll know if you like it or not!"

Nuo Xi turned her head to look at the blue eyes of Xiao Chong Cub, pursed her mouth, and nodded slightly: "Mmm..."

The friendship between Xiao Chong Cub always develops very quickly. When Caesar told Ryan that it was late and they should go home, Ryan had already tightly hugged Nosy's arm and refused to leave.

Nuo Xi looked a little at a loss, his eyes flicked back and forth between Ryan and Caesar, but he didn't pull out his hand to break away from Ryan.

Jia Da looked at the two cubs who seemed inseparable, and said with a smile: "Then you can stay here and sleep well, anyway, there are still many guest rooms at home."

"No, it's too intrusive." Caesar quickly and politely refused, there is no reason to go to sleep with neighbors on the first day they meet each other.

He knelt down and coaxed Ryan patiently: "Come and play with Brother Nuoxi tomorrow, or invite Brother Nuoxi to our house as a guest, okay?"

Because of his own narrow social scope, Ryan has never been able to make any friends, except for Weir who is very clingy on H-7.

Now that Will and Will can no longer meet, Ryan can make new friends, of course Caesar is very happy for him and very supportive.

Ryan turned to look at Nuo Xi: "Brother Nuo Xi, are you going to visit my house tomorrow?"

After finishing speaking, he still felt inadequate and added: "Come after breakfast!"

That way you can play all day long!

He can take Brother Nuoxi to experience the trampoline and slides at his home, but the swing is fine, and his father can only push him a little bug!

Nuoxi looked at Jiada, and after receiving the encouraging gaze from Xiongfu, she thought about it seriously, then nodded to Ryan, and shook her head again: "You can come, but you can't come after breakfast."

When Jiada saw Ryan's disappointed expression, he quickly explained to his little worm: "Because Nuoxi is going to the worm garden during the day, how about going to play with Ryan as soon as school is over?"

After all, Ryan is a sensible little bug. Knowing that Brother Nuoxi has serious business to do, he immediately expressed his understanding: "That's great."

The two little worm cubs bid farewell, or Ryan unilaterally said goodbye. After Nuoxi accepted his reluctant farewell at a loss, Caesar successfully brought his little worm cub home.

On the way home, Ryan's mouth never stopped. Anyone could hear his excitement: "Dad! I want to go to school too!"

"Brother Wei and Brother Nuoxi both go to school, so they can't play with Ryan. If Ryan also goes to school, can they play with them?"

Caesar couldn't laugh or cry.

"Going to school is not just about playing, you have to learn a lot, it's very tiring."

"But Ryan has to study at home."

Caesar: "..." That's true.

He thought it was little Ryan's whim, and he would forget everything after going home to sleep.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Ryan sat on the dining chair with a serious expression, but the little strawberry scarf tied around his chest somewhat spoiled the serious atmosphere.

"Dad, Ryan wants to go to school."

His tone was more serious than last night, which made Caesar cheer up and take this issue seriously.

"Isn't Ryan afraid of hard work? The cubs in the Cub Garden are all older than Ryan. They play at home until they are three or four years old before learning. Ryan doesn't feel that he spends more time playing than other cubs." Are there fewer cubs?"

Ryan blinked and said nothing.

Caesar knew that he was hesitating, served him a bowl of porridge, and passed the spoon over: "Let's eat first, when Brother Nuoxi comes in the afternoon, Ryan will ask him about the Cub Garden, and then make a decision ,OK?"

This is the first important decision Ryan has made since he broke his shell. Caesar wants to train him to think independently and be responsible for his own decisions.

In fact, even for human cubs, there are many who go to kindergarten when they are three years old, and it is not uncommon for them to be under three years old.What's more, the growth rate of worm cubs is much faster than human cubs, and Ryan is so smart and healthy, and he is unambiguous in dealing with other worms, so it is not completely impossible for Ryan to go to the worm cub garden now, but Caesar himself was a little worried.

But he respects Xiao Chong Cub's decision. If Ryan really wants to get in touch with other Xiao Chong Cubs, then he will try his best to help Ryan fulfill this wish.

"Yeah!" Ryan said sweetly, "Daddy is the best!"

Caesar looked at his cute appearance snoring and drinking porridge, and his heart was sweet and sour.

After all, Xiao Chong Cub will grow up and leave his father. Even though this day may be far away, Caesar has the same mentality as all parents. He hopes that he will be happy and grow up happily into the dream he imagined. appearance, and hoped that he would not grow wings so quickly and fly to places where he could not see.

That afternoon, Nuoxi visited as scheduled, followed by his male father Jiada.

As soon as Jia Da saw Caesar, he excitedly gave him a warm hug: "Little Diamond!"

Caesar hugged him back very stiffly: "..."

Well, it's rare to meet a worm who can chat well and get along well with each other's worm cubs. He thinks he can try his best to overcome his social fear.

Ryan took Nuoxi to play in the garden, while Jiada and Caesar were lying on a deck chair not far away and chatting, taking care of the two little bug cubs by the way.

It was no longer the time when the sun was shining in the afternoon, and there was still some coolness unique to summer evenings. The two males were lying side by side on the deck chairs, chatting lazily with each other.

"Don't look at our family Nuoxi who looks indifferent. He urged me to bring him to find Ryan as soon as he came in after school. He really followed his female father." Jiada thought for a moment and concluded a word: "boring Sao."

Caesar was almost choked by this word, he didn't expect Garda to describe his own worm cub like this.

God knows, yesterday he still felt that Nuo Xi's social fear was somewhat similar to his own.But he himself is not a sullen temper, he is a real fear.

"I'm bored at home myself, and I've wanted to chat with you for a long time." Jiada complained and pouted, looking a little squeamish and cute.

Caesar invited: "Next time, you can come earlier, just let Nuo Xi come over directly after school."

"No." Garda shook his head: "I still need to take care of my garden."

Caesar recalled the exquisite and beautiful garden he saw yesterday, and asked in surprise, "You took care of that yourself? It's really beautiful."

"Of course." Jiada raised his chin a little proudly, and the whole worm exuded the aura of "come and praise me": "I graduated from the top-ranked university in horticulture on the entire worm planet."

As he said that, he looked around Caesar's garden: "Well, your garden is not bad, but those few bushes over there need to be pruned."

The two guardian bugs chatted happily, and their little bug cubs were not idle either.

Although Nuo Xi looked cold, but before Ryan slipped down the slide, Nuo Xi had already stood at the exit of the slide, stretching out his arms to protect Ryan at any time.

Ryan was protected by Nuo Xi and had a good time, until he was out of breath, he sat down on the flower bed, and patted the flower bed, motioning for Nuo Xi's brother to sit down too.

Nuo Xi took out a handkerchief from the trouser pocket of the jumpsuit, first wiped the sweat from Ryan's forehead, then folded the handkerchief, wiped the soil on the edge of the flower bed with the other side, and then sat on it .

Ryan looked at Nuo Xi's flowing movements, blinked his eyes, and felt that Nuo Xi's brother, like Wei's brother, was very particular.

Although Nuo Xi's cheeks were also red, she was not sweating profusely like Ryan. She looked like a very restrained and reserved little female.

Recalling what his father said in the morning, Ryan asked curiously, "Brother Nuoxi, is there a slide in the Cub Park?"

Brother Nuoxi is not as excited about playing on the slide as he is, maybe he is already tired of playing in the insect garden.

Nuoxi looked at Xiao Chongzi's bright eyes, nodded slightly, and said in a very light tone: "Yes."

"Then what else is there in the Cub Garden? Is there anything Ryan hasn't played with?"

Nosy frowned a little embarrassedly, he didn't know what Ryan had played.

So he honestly described everything in the Zerg Cubs Garden to Ryan, and received a lot of exclamation from the Zerg Cubs... and admiring gazes.

"Father! Ryan is going to the Cub Garden with Brother Nuo Xi!"

Caesar was almost falling asleep on the recliner, when he suddenly heard Xiao Chongzai yelling, he woke up immediately, opened his eyes and looked at Ryan.

Jia Da looked at Ryan in surprise: "Ruen, you are so young, how did you go to the Cub Garden?"

Ryan ran over erratically, followed by a panicked Nuoxi.

Nuo Xi looked at her male father, wondering if she said or did something wrong.

Caesar guessed what Nuo Xi was thinking, and smiled reassuringly at Nuo Xi: "He has been arguing since he came back yesterday that he wants to go to the Cub Garden with Brother Nuo Xi. Maybe he likes little Nuo Xi too much."

Ryan patted his small chest: "Ryan can do it!"

Jia Da seemed to want to say something, but he still kept his mouth shut. After all, Little Ryan's male father is not him.

On the contrary, Nuo Xi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said to Caesar: "I will protect Ryan well."

Now, both Jiada and Caesar looked at Nuoxi in surprise.

Ryan laughed, grabbed Nuo Xi's sleeve and shook it.

In the end, Caesar agreed to Ryan and thought about it again.

Garda and his son rejected Caesar's invitation to stay with them for dinner because Nuoxi had to go home to do homework.

Caesar took advantage of the situation and said to Ryan: "Did you see that? When you go to the Cub Garden, you have to do your homework on time every day, and you can't play as you like."

Ryan replied: "Ryan can also be so powerful!"

"..." Well, homework is surprisingly good.

The house purchase information given by Kit had already written all the schools, big and small, near the residential area, so Caesar took Ryan to the field to inspect the insect cub garden with the highest evaluation and the most expensive tuition the next day.According to Garda's introduction, Nuoxi also studied here.
