In the afternoon, after Zhou Yuan and Asta finished tidying up the purchased items, they didn’t have much else to do.
One was unemployed, relying entirely on his wife for support.
The other had been transferred and was currently on leave due to the ongoing ban.
Finally, Asta fetched a book from the study and sat by the floor-to-ceiling window to read. Outside the window, Zhou Yuan was busy trimming branches and watering the flowers and plants.
Whenever Asta felt tired of reading, he would set the book aside and look out at the busy male zerg outside.
And when Zhou Yuan took breaks, he would also glance at Asta, admiring his quiet reading.
Sometimes their gazes would meet, and Zhou Yuan would smile and wave to Asta, who would blush and wave back.
Once Zhou Yuan finished his tasks, he would join Asta by the window, holding a book. If he happened to come across Asta’s annotations, he would discuss them with Asta.
Spending time with Asta was even more comfortable than Zhou Yuan had imagined.
During dinner, Zhou Yuan replaced all the plain white plates with the small white cat plates Asta had given him, and he even happily made a fruit salad.
Asta also sensed Zhou Yuan’s good mood and began to understand why female zergs would buy gifts for male zergs when they pursued them.
It turns out receiving gifts really does improve one’s mood.
He secretly decided to buy more gifts for male zergs in the future.
After dinner, Zhou Yuan received some good news about Karl.
Before leaving at noon, Zhou Yuan had exchanged contact information with Jueke and Dek, agreeing to contact them if there were any news about Karl, and then they temporarily parted ways due to other commitments.
Now, Jueke sent a message informing them that Karl’s estrus condition had been suppressed, and thanks to timely treatment, his physical and mental injuries could recover with a few more months of rest.
However, since his estrus period had been induced earlier, his next estrus period would be delayed and more painful than before.
But compared to the fate of other disabled female zergs, his outcome was much better.
Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Jueke also provided Zhou Yuan with information about the male zerg who had been admitted to the hospital.

Isaac doted on his A-grade male zerg child, and upon learning that Angelo had been assaulted by Zhou Yuan, an upstart A-grade male zerg, he even threatened to sue Zhou Yuan. Despite Colin’s attempts to persuade him otherwise, the situation escalated and became known throughout the hospital.
Both Jueke and Dek felt guilty when they relayed this information, believing they had brought trouble to Zhou Yuan.
In an unexpected turn, Zhou Yuan ended up consoling them, which eased their guilt.
Sitting beside them, Asta witnessed all of this and reassured Zhou Yuan, saying, “Lord, I will protect you.”
“Thank you, Asta,” Zhou Yuan responded, smiling and ruffling Asta’s hair.
“It’s the least I can do,” Asta said solemnly.
Afterward, the two zergs went back to their respective rooms to freshen up. However, unlike before, they both unconsciously grabbed their unfinished books and silently returned to the living room.
Before they knew it, it was time to bid each other good night and retire to their rooms.
Before going to sleep, Zhou Yuan had the habit of reviewing important matters. He skillfully opened StarNet, only to find that the headlines were dominated by the incident of him and Asta going shopping and the altercation with the male zerg.
He was taken aback by the headlines:
– “Dixia and Marshal Asta go shopping together! (Explosive)”
– “Mesrt Restaurant: I ran into Dixia and Marshal Asta! (Explosive)”
– “I’m so jealous!”
– “Did Dixia hit a male zerg??? (Explosive)”
– “First Hospital: Angelo’s condition (Explosive)”
– “When will the Male Zergs Protection Association apologize to Dixia?”
– “Shocking revelation: Dixia and Angelo fought over a female zerg?! (Explosive)”
– “Is Dixia taking female attendants now?!!! (Explosive)”
Zhou Yuan: Huh???
Wait, what are the last two headlines about??
Zhou Yuan’s drowsiness vanished instantly. He clicked on the last headline.
The source of this headline was a witness who had observed the incident at noon.
The informant claimed to be an employee of Mesrt Restaurant, the same restaurant Zhou Yuan and Asta had visited for lunch.
He began by saying that they encountered Karl and his group at the order counter, and at that time, Dixia even invited them to his private room!
And according to his investigation, Karl and his group did indeed enter the room, but they came out soon after, with radiant smiles on their faces.
What does that mean?
It means they encountered something good!
But what exactly happened had to do with the conflict between Dixia and Angelo.
This conflict stemmed from Angelo’s interest in Karl. Angelo lured Karl into the corridor restroom, intending to induce his estrus urge and force himself on him.
But, by sheer coincidence, Dixia found out!
At that moment, Dixia was furious! Without saying a word, he rushed in and brutally beat Angelo, landing him in the hospital for the afternoon!
This was simply a case of two males fighting over one female zerg!!
In conclusion: Dixia has a new lover!!!
Zhou Yuan: …
Zhou Yuan: Bullshit!!!
His feelings for Asta were beyond reproach!!!
Who would cheat on such a lovely wife?!!
Moreover, Karl looked like a child who hadn’t even reached adulthood. Zhou Yuan wasn’t a pervert; how could he possibly lay a hand on such a child?!
Zhou Yuan couldn’t sleep anymore. He quickly typed out a few hundred words, expressing his loyalty to Asta. Every line and every word condensed the essence of his education in male virtue since graduating from the Male Virtue Class. He also explained his relationship with Karl.
[Dixia V: Please don’t speculate randomly. My relationship with Asta is excellent, and I have no intention of taking on other female zergs.
I saved that female zerg because he is Asta’s student and very talented. If he can graduate smoothly from the military academy, he will be one of the best warriors on the battlefield. I couldn’t bear to see such a promising child’s future ruined.
Furthermore, Asta is wonderful. He is the most beautiful and gentle female zerg I have ever seen, and I will only have him as my female zerg in this lifetime. I hope everyone will refrain from making wild guesses. Although Asta doesn’t often browse StarNet, he would feel uncomfortable if he found out.]
This message instantly set off a frenzy among the netizens who were still awake.
Likes flooded in as if they were free, and countless comments poured in.
[User1: Oh my god, am I seeing this right?! Did Dixia just say, “I will only have him as my female zerg in this lifetime”?!!]
[User2: !!! I was about to go to sleep, but then I found this out?! Now I can’t sleep!! Crazy.jpg]
…
[User85: Dixia is so gentle, I’m crying. Does anyone understand? I’ve plucked all the leaves off my lemon tree!!]
[User86: #Jealousy, I’ve said it enough#]
…
[User381: I can’t sleep at all. After careful reading for half the night, I can see the hidden message between the lines, which all say “Don’t say random things, Asta would be unhappy if he knew.”]
[User382: Shut up, upstairs! Sobbing.jpg]
…
After posting his clarification, Zhou Yuan fell asleep peacefully, but many female zergs ended up losing sleep because of it.
