Yu Chenyu chose the latter.
He deleted the recording, dragged Wei Ye to the bathroom, beat him up, and then cleaned up all the blood.
Qi Zihan wasnât surprised.
Since Yu Chenyu specifically said âa maleâs final fate will be determined by his femaleâ, it meant that although he wanted revenge, he didnât feel that his crime was deserving of death.
Beat Wei Ye up once to make him pay for his actions, and this matter would be considered over.
Qi Zihan didnât remain idle as screams frequently came from the bathroom, instead taking the initiative to ask Li Yang for profiles of the males, wanting to experience the joy of an emperor choosing a concubine.
Then he was hugely disappointed.
It turned out that not all males were as handsome as Yu ChenyuâŚ
Compared with these males, even the two workers from the Female Association looked good.
In addition, what was going on with the males who were even weaker than him?
âTheyâre drones,â Li Yang explained when he saw his confusion, âtheir bodies are much weaker than a soldierâs, so they wonât hurt females. They also know some techniques that can make females feel very comfortable⌠If it’s your first time, I recommend doing it with a drone. Drones are definitely better in bed than soldiers.â
âNoâŚâ Qi Zihanâs face was full of resistance.
He still liked strong men with powerful muscles.
âI mostly get where a droneâs âcompetitivenessâ is. What about workers?â he asked as his gaze moved away from a droneâs photo to land on a worker with an ordinary appearance.
âMales who arenât soldiers or drones are called workers, most of them have stable jobs and sources of income.â
âOh, theyâre rich.â Qi Zihan understood.
âWell⌠you can say that,â Li Yang said, blinking at Qi Zihan.
He could see that Qi Zihan didnât like drones and wasnât interested in workers. His eyes would stay on soldiers for a while, but he didnât show much desire there either.
He didnât expect this female to like General Yu Chenyu that much⌠liking him to the point that he could say heâll only love him.
No matter whether he said this sincerely or as a joke, any male would be dizzy with happiness.
Despite not feeling much hope, Li Yang asked, âIs there anyone among these males whom you would like to marry?â
âAre these all of them?â
âUh, these are all of the males who matched more than 80% with you and sent applications,â he answered in surprise.
56 applications! Other females didnât even get one a year, but this female thought it wasnât enough to receive 56 applications within two days?
It wasnât that Qi Zihan wanted to complain that it was too few, it was just that he had no concept of it at all.
But he did think that these males werenât good enough.
It was possible that he shouldnât use Yu Chenyu to judge the quality of a male.
Yet if he didnât use him as a reference and couldnât find a male better than him, what was he restraining himself for?
Qi Zihan didnât want multiple spouses, he only wanted one, but this one had to be the best.
There was obviously no such person among the male profiles brought by the Female Association this time.
None of them looked better than Yu Chenyu, none of them were stronger than Yu Chenyu, and none of them excited Qi Zihan.
Thus when Yu Chenyu dragged Wei Yeâs bruised and battered form out of the bathroom, he saw his wife saying to Li Yang with a very disappointed expression, âThank you for making this trip. Next time an application comes, please help me reject all of them except for any that are from soldiers.â
Yu Chenyuâs eyes widened.
Li Yang was also evidently surprised.
He saw that Qi Zihan liked soldiers, but he didnât expect him to say it directly.
âUm, okay, do you have any other requests? The Female Association can also help you find males who meet your requirements.â
âIs that so? ThenâŚâ Qi Zihan pointed at Yu Chenyu. âHelp me find someone whoâs better looking and better at fighting than him, but has a gentle personality and wonât hit me.â
Li Yang: â…â
Oh, then you may never get any messages from the Female Association.
A chuckle burst out of Yu Chenyu before he stopped himself and turned to Li Yang and Wei Ye, who had been beaten black and blue. âMy Lord Wife hasnât had breakfast yet. If your business is finished, please take your leave.â
âOkay, okay, weâre going now,â Li Yang said as he grabbed Wei Yeâs arm and pulled him out the door, not hiding his fear of Yu Chenyu at all.
Yu Chenyu had no intention of seeing them off. In fact, as soon as the two of them stepped over the threshold, he closed the door without allowing them to say any goodbyes.
He didnât use much force, so the door didnât make much noise.
But he closed it so quickly and neatly, just missing the two words âget outâ, that Qi Zihan had the urge to laugh.
âYou donât seem to like people from the Female Association,â Qi Zihan commented. He went back to the dining table.
âMn, I donât,â Yu Chenyu answered frankly. âJust like how soldiers donât like the other castes, they donât like soldiers either. Since neither of us likes each other, thereâs no need to be polite.â
âReally?â Qi Zihan had a better understanding of this world.
No wonder males didnât unite to overthrow this society where females were superior to males despite them having a greater population; apart from the physiological factors, there were also many internal conflicts among males.
Soldiers might want to trample on males of the other castes first before overthrowing the females.
They clearly werenât able to beat the soldiers, yet they were still so arrogantâŚ
Hey, Qi Zihan suddenly found that he could empathize with the soldiers.
As he pondered, he used a knife and fork to cut a piece of the sandwich and brought it to his mouth.
Delicious!
Everything Yu Chenyu made was delicious!
Yu Chenyu sat down opposite Qi Zihan and, quietly watching his wife eat, he couldnât help but smile.
Although the answer was obvious, he still had to ask, as if to confirm, âIs there anyone you like among the males recommended by the Female Association?â
âYou know it already.â Qi Zihan wasnât stupid, how could he not guess what he was thinking? âYou just want them to recommend trash to me so that Iâll stick to you after seeing them.â
Yu Chenyu touched his nose, trying to hide his upturned lips and happy mood.
But Qi Zihan refused to give up. âThe empire is so big, I just donât believe that I canât find a male better than you.â
Yu Chenyu: â…â
Couldnât it be possible that he was the best one?
However Yu Chenyu didnât dare to say this, for fear that Qi Zihan would think that he was too arrogant.
âBut you donât need to worry too much,â Qi Zihan added, âeven if I find a better male and decide to be with him, Iâll still give you soothing. Since Iâve decided to keep you with me, Iâll take responsibility for you.â
Take responsibility.
These words somehow came from the mouth of a female zerg.
The empire had always advocated that males chosen by females must take care of them by using their income to support and their bodies to accompany their females until the end of their lives.
Meanwhile, females didnât bear any responsibilities. They only needed to enjoy life and maintain a relaxed mood to better soothe males.
Yet Qi Zihan said to Yu Chenyu: Iâll take responsibility for you.
Yu Chenyuâs heart surged. He had the sudden urge to embrace the person sitting on the chair, touch him, kiss him.
But he couldnât, he couldnât.
This was the female who deeply attracted him, the one whose potent soothing gave him a second life, the one he loved most, was most grateful to, and the one person he was most reluctant to hurt.
Since he promised not to touch him without permission, he couldnât do it.
The future was still long. One day, Qi Zihan would realise that the person he was looking for was right beside him.
Yu Chenyu was a first-class general of the empire with SS physical and spiritual powers, he had explored the most dangerous high-risk areas and killed the strongest aberrants. Not even the Imperial Marshal was a match for him.
If not even he was qualified to stand beside Qi Zihan, then no soldier in the entire empire could be qualified.
As for those workers and drones, they werenât worthy of Qi Zihanâs attention.
Thinking of this, he suppressed his impulses and just gave a seemingly calm hum.
However, after breakfast, while he washed the dishes â
Yu Chenyu: I won! I told you that Iâll win! I won!
Zhu Yunqi: Won what?
Zhu Yunqi: Youâre so excited, is it related to your wife?
Yu Chenyu: You guessed right, it is.
Yu Chenyu: The people from the Association came, they just left.
Yu Chenyu: I took a quick look. There were at least 50 applications, half of which were S-grade. My wife didnât like a! Single! One!
If he hadnât wanted to maintain his image, Yu Chenyu wouldâve laughed out loud.
However, his current tone was enough to scare his friend of many years.
Zhu Yunqi: Calm down, calm down. Look at yourself, youâre just like when I was slaughtering aberrants on the front lines. Your control lossâs been reset already, why are you still going crazy?
Zhu Yunqi: OK, stop joking. Most S-grade males are soldiers, itâs normal that he doesnât like them. Werenât there any applications from drones?
Yu Chenyu: There were, he liked them even less.
Zhu Yunqi: What about workers?
Yu Chenyu: What do you think?
Zhu Yunqi: I keep thinking that youâre lying to me, but I have no evidence. I really want to be happy for you but Iâm still nervous. Yu Chenyu, your marriage has totally subverted my worldview!
Yu Chenyu: You want to cheat?
Zhu Yunqi: Hey, am I that kind of person?
Zhu Yunqi: I admit defeat. Just tell me what you want me to do. If your wife really only loves you, Iâll even do a striptease for you!
Yu Chenyu: Get lost, who wants to see you strip? Itâs better for you to give me more weapons and equipment.
Zhu Yunqi: Canât you apply directly to the marshal for that? Why are you stealing mine?
Yu Chenyu: Then give me people.
Zhu Yunqi: Go away, train your rookies yourself!
Zhu Yunqi: But speaking of your wife, will he go to the queenâs banquet tomorrow?
Yu Chenyu: What banquet?
Zhu Yunqi: The Queenâs Banquet
Yu Chenyu: What queen?
Zhu Yunqi: âŚâŚ
Zhu Yunqi: A gathering for females. Youâre already a married man, can you pay more attention to female activities!
Yu Chenyu: Whatâs it for?
Zhu Yunqi: A gathering for females, I told you! I think itâs held once a month, and itâs quite formal. Females are delicate so they rarely go out, but staying at home all day makes it easy to get sick, so theyâve organised all kinds of things to do.
Yu Chenyu: Can we not go?
Zhu Yunqi: I donât think itâs up to you. You should at least let him know, then let him decide whether to go or not. If he doesnât go, thatâs his choice. If you knew but didnât tell him, then thatâs your problem.
Yu Chenyu: I originally didnât know, but you told me. Why did you tell me?
The chat was silent.
Yu Chenyu admitted that he was a little angry. He really⌠didnât want Qi Zihan to meet other females, or to spend time with them.
Qi Zihan was special, he didnât want him to be led astray by other females.
Of course, he didnât think Zhu Yunqi did it on purpose to deliberately embarrass him or anything like that.
He wasnât that kind of person.
Zhu Yunqi had also sensed something was wrong, so he was silent for a long time before replying.
Zhu Yunqi: Sorry, I didnât think it through. Who knows whatâll happen at a female gathering⌠Just pretend I didnât say anything. Pretend you donât know anything and donât tell him
Yu Chenyu: No, he wonât do anything to me.
Zhu Yunqi: ?
Yu Chenyu: He wonât lend me to another female, and he wonât⌠humiliate me in public.
Yu Chenyu: Want to bet?
Zhu Yunqi: Youâre sure? This time itâs your dignity on the line
Yu Chenyu: If the banquet is as formal as you said, and itâs held every month, then heâll know about it sooner or later. Even if he doesnât go this month, what about next month? Or the month after that?
Zhu Yunqi: Thatâs true
Yu Chenyu: So Iâll tell him. And Iâll believe in him.
