In the cave.
Lin Hao brought his left hand in front of his eyes, carefully observing the two-centimeter black line. He gently stroked it, finding that the black line had already fused with his left wrist.
It was the kind that couldn't be rubbed off.
It felt like not washing properly after a bath.
He usually took baths!
It also gave him that silly feeling from his middle school days.
It felt very chuunibyo no matter how he looked at it.
Lin Hao stroked it gently, thinking, "We have no enmity, why are you so stubbornly clinging to me?"
The black line on his wrist seemed to sense Lin Hao's touch and gradually grew warm, but it was fleeting.
Huh?
He felt a slight warmth on his left wrist. He touched his left wrist.
Was that just his imagination?
Alfar watched quietly from the side as the young master played with his hand.
A crack appeared on his cool face.
The cub playing with his hand was the cutest.
At this moment, all the insects in the cave were huddled on the ground, watching Lin Hao play with his hand without blinking.
So cute, cloud backup complete.
USB drive is ready.
The Star Network is also prepared.
Lin Hao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, as if someone was watching him. He hesitantly looked up and indeed found the insects staring at him intently.
Their crimson eyes were like camera flashes, blinking rhythmically. It was quite artistic, actually.
He hadn't done anything strange, had he?
Why were they looking at him like this again?
Although he had gotten used to such gazes these past few days, it couldn't happen every day.
No one could handle this.
Huh?
Qin Mohan seemed like he could handle it. After all, he had lived under constant scrutiny his entire life.
Every action had to be worthy of his status, and he couldn't do as he pleased.
If he wasn't poker-faced, who would be?
He didn't have a single friend he could confide in, even him...
Sigh, I'll have to make it up to him when I see him later.
Having made up his mind, Lin Hao stood up and walked to Huahua's side.
Huahua, still lost in the beautiful scene of the young master playing with his hand, suddenly saw the young master appear before it. It instantly snapped back to attention, quickly retracted its pincers, and exposed its softest part to the young master.
After all, the young master was still a cub, and his skin was very tender right now; it couldn't be injured.
"Huahua, let's go out and play," Lin Hao said to Huahua.
Huahua instantly felt as if it had been blessed by the goddess of fortune. The young master thought of it first when he wanted to go out.
It was so happy.
The two antennae on Huahua's head swayed joyfully, showing how incredibly happy it was.
The young master likes me.
Huahua happily typed in the group chat.
Because of this message, their small group chat instantly exploded.
Damn it, this insect is so shameless!
Exactly!
You've only sat next to the young master a few times, and you're already claiming the young master likes you. Humph~
Shameless.
Someone kick him out of the family tree.
I've never seen such a shameless insect.
You're disgracing all of us Huase insects.
The young master will surely stop liking you in a few days.
The young master likes someone like me the most. A large black insect commented in the group chat.
Huahua ignored the insects who were clearly jealous, as the young master didn't like jealous insects; he preferred someone fresh and pure like himself.
Hmph, just watch the young master dote on him.
After saying this, Huahua exited the chat. Instead, its eyes were fixed on the boy in front of it.
Sheer and Alfar, who were nearby, heard this and automatically came to the young master's side.
Just as Lin Hao was about to turn around to look for Alfar and the others, he found them already behind him.
When did his guard become so low?
It seemed to have started after he was reborn.
Perhaps because they were blood-related family, he felt they wouldn't hurt him.
"I was just about to look for you, and you came," he had intended to ask Huahua if it wanted to go out with him. If it agreed, he would bring Alfar and the others. If not, he wouldn't go.
"Let's go out together," Sheer said, stepping in front of Lin Hao.
Then he shot Alfar a look, implying "You're slow."
Alfar ignored Sheer's provocation and said coldly, "And me."
Lin Hao naturally saw their little exchange and felt a bit helpless. He didn't know what had happened between them, so it was hard for him to mediate.
I'll ask them what happened between them when I have time later.
"Then let's go out!" Lin Hao said with some excitement. After all, he hadn't been out since Sheer arrived here; he had been stuck in this cave for several days.
He felt like mushrooms were about to grow on his head.
He walked to Huahua and skillfully climbed onto its head.
Huahua still gently wrapped its two antennae around Lin Hao's waist to prevent the young master from falling off.
As they walked out of the cave, they saw two humans sitting on the ground at the entrance.
Li Huan, who was counting ants on the ground, felt the ground vibrate. He turned his head and saw a vast army of insects marching towards him.
His mind went blank for a moment.
Where are they going? To war? Why are there so many insects coming out?
He thought to himself.
Bai Chen, who was beside him, instantly came back to his senses, quickly stood up, and met Lin Hao's gaze from atop Huahua.
Lin Hao also felt a gaze, lowered his head, and saw Bai Chen looking at him.
Their eyes met.
"Do you have any questions?" Why are you staring at me?
Unable to bear the scrutiny, Lin Hao spoke first.
"Are you the King of the Insect Tribe?" Bai Chen's mind briefly short-circuited when he heard Lin Hao's words, but he quickly recovered and asked his question.
Even though he knew the person before him was the King of the Insect Tribe, he couldn't help but ask.
After all, that silly fool didn't believe that this soft and cute person wasn't the King.
He had to ask for his sake.
Sigh.
"Yes." He hadn't spoken to his own kind in a long time and didn't know what to say, so he could only answer his questions robotically.
Li Huan had already gotten up while Bai Chen and Lin Hao were talking.
Hearing his childhood friend ask that question, he looked at his childhood friend in shock.
There was a hint of confusion on his face.
Why would his usually smart childhood friend ask such a stupid question?
Didn't he see the two great commanders revolving around him?
How could he ask such a question?
Was his usual intelligence all an act!
Oh~
This young man was quite cunning, deceiving him for so many years.
Did he still consider him his closest person?
Was he still his father?
He was angry and decided not to talk to him.
Li Huan then glanced at Bai Chen and turned away.
He decided to break off their friendship.
Because he had lied to him, making him believe he was a big idiot.
Bai Chen looked at his childhood friend with a bewildered expression as he glared at him, then turned away and ignored him. Then, an unreadable expression appeared in his eyes.
It seemed like he was cursing him in his heart.
Why?
Bai Chen felt a tiny bit wronged.
