Chapter 29 (3?) was read once.
The morning sunlight streamed onto the windowsill, gentle and warm.
When Ling Yi woke up, he felt an unfamiliar presence beside him, very close, in an embracing posture.
Ling Yi was startled at first, then remembered something and looked to the side, where Qi Min's sleeping face was in his eyes.
Just as Ling Yi was about to remove Qi Min's arms from his embrace, he felt the arm slowly tightening, and the male insect's aura drawing even closer.
Qi Min felt that he had slept very well. Not only were there no disturbing nightmares, but he also had a large, fragrant, and soft-to-the-touch pillow that he liked.
Qi Min even rubbed his face against Ling Yi's neck, his warm breath hitting Ling Yi's skin and causing a slight shiver.
This made Ling Yi's heart beat faster involuntarily. He turned his head slightly and his gaze met Qi Min's open eyes, which were full of tenderness and longing.
"Morning..."
Qi Min's voice, carrying the languid gentleness of someone just waking up, softly brushed past Ling Yi's ear.
"My lord, early... could you please release me first?" Ling Yi's voice carried a hint of unease.
Qi Min didn't respond, nor did he let go. Instead, he suddenly leaned in and (?? ? 3?) touched him.
"My lord!" (*???)!!
Ling Yi was startled by his sudden outburst, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"If you call me 'Master' again, I'll do it again."
Qi Min slightly raised the corners of his mouth, his words carrying a hint of threat, yet also revealing a subtle doting affection.
"But the male is female... ugh!" (⊙x⊙;)
Before Ling Yi could finish speaking, Qi Min covered his mouth. Ling Yi's eyes widened instantly, filled with a mixture of surprise and shyness.
This time, Qi Min didn't just touch him once like before; he waited quite a while before letting go of Ling Yi.
Ling Yi, now free, blushed and looked confused and shy.
Qi Min was slightly out of breath, his gaze fixed on Ling Yi's reddened lips, his eyes filled with emotion.
"Since you adhere to the rules for female insects so strictly, I'll call you 'Master' one more time..."
Qi Min's meaning was clear; he wanted to continue. Ling Yi pursed her rosy lips, her eyes filled with shame and indignation, and said no more.
"Not going to greet me? If you're not going to say hello, then I'll just have to..."
Qi Min stared at Ling Yi's moist lips, his meaning very clear.
"Qi...Qi Min," Ling Yi said quickly, afraid that he would kiss her again.
Qi Min smiled, then buried his head in Ling Yi's neck with a hint of regret.
"Good morning, Ling Yi." Qi Min's voice was very gentle, so gentle that it was almost... alluring.
Ling Yi turned his head uncomfortably, trying to avoid this gentle attack, and quietly waited for Qi Min to release him.
Qi Min hugged Ling Yi for a while longer before letting him get up, while he quietly lay on the bed, admiring the beauty getting up.
The beauty got up in such a hurry that her abdominal muscles were slightly visible, and the curves of her body as she stood up from the bed were a feast for Qi Min's eyes.
Ling Yi felt awkward under Qi Min's intense gaze and awkwardly went into the bathroom to wash up.
A short while later, after Qi Min finished washing up, he saw Ling Yi holding a personal terminal and checking something.
"What's wrong? Have your subordinates done their investigation?" Qi Min asked casually as he approached.
“Well, you left very few clues, so they didn’t find anything,” Ling Yi replied.
"What brings you here today? I'd like you to come out with me."
Qi Min picked up the breakfast that Ling Yi had prepared and started eating.
"No, where is the male lead going?" Ling Yi called the male lead back.
Qi Min simply smiled, glanced at him, and said nothing.
"Yeah, I have some things to take care of. Come and eat!"
Qi Min ate his breakfast and spoke to Ling Yi, who was standing in front of him.
........................
In the administrative processing center, most of the people coming and going are females or sub-females. A male insect with a tall and handsome figure stands out here.
Judging from its appearance alone, one can tell that this male insect is of a high level, and passersby will inevitably glance at it curiously.
Qi Min led Ling Yi into the administrative processing center. Before they even reached the window, they saw several uniformed personnel walking towards them.
"Sir, if you need to conduct business, please come this way."
One of the uniformed personnel smiled and gestured to Qi Min.
"Okay, thank you."
Qi Min followed him to an office, and after he and Ling Yi sat down, he heard the uniformed staff ask him what kind of business they needed to handle.
"I want to grant my mate full access and provide a written statement confirming my willingness."
Qi Min stated his request.
"Are you...are you sure, Your Excellency? Were you coerced?!"
The notary was initially surprised, then looked at Ling Yi, wanting to confirm whether the male insect in front of him had been forced.
Qi Min leaned to the side, blocking Ling Yi, and looked at the notary, continuing to speak.
"Why are you looking at me, your empress, when I'm doing this for business? I'm doing this voluntarily, without any coercion. Are you going to process my request or not?"
Qi Min was clearly dissatisfied and even began to doubt this person's abilities.
"Uh, I... please wait a moment, I need to report to my superiors."
The notary's tone carried a hint of hesitation and caution.
"Okay, please hurry up."
Qi Min watched the notary walk out, and when he turned his head, he saw Ling Yi's face full of complicated expressions, a mixture of surprise and doubt.
Qi Min suddenly chuckled, propping his cheek up with his hand and appreciating the complex expression on Ling Yi's face.
Seeing him like this, Ling Yi lowered her head, composed herself, and regained her calm demeanor.
A short while later, the notary brought in another female insect.
"Your Excellency Qi Min, hello. I am Liu Bin, the person in charge here. I heard that you are going to process... granting your empress all rights?"
Liu Bin's tone was cautious, with a hint of probing that was barely perceptible. He lowered his head slightly, his voice steady and clear, yet subtly revealing the importance he attached to this matter.
"Yes, a notarized written certificate is also required," Qi Min added.
"It is like this, Your Excellency Qi Min. According to the Male Insect Protection Law and relevant regulations, I must verify the authenticity and voluntariness of this matter. Please understand my duty."
I must confirm with you again whether you have truly and completely voluntarily granted all permissions and are fully aware of all the consequences.
Liu Bin's tone was respectful, but it also revealed a serious and responsible attitude.
"It was voluntary, I know, I wasn't coerced, and I granted all permissions, so can you process it for me now?" Qi Min's words were concise and firm.
"Okay... I'll prepare the necessary documents right away."
Seeing Qi Min's firm and serious expression, Liu Bin was very surprised, but he was also very professional and quickly prepared the documents that needed to be signed.
Qi Min successfully completed all the necessary procedures, including obtaining all the access permissions and written documentation.
After completing all the formalities and regulations, he took Ling Yi's hand and left the administration building.
Ling Yi remained silent throughout the entire process, offering no opinions whatsoever. In fact, his mind had been in a daze ever since he confirmed that Qi Min had indeed come to handle the matter and granted him full access.
Back in the car, Ling Yi sat in the driver's seat, remaining motionless for a long time. Qi Min didn't urge him, giving him time to process the situation.
After observing the various rules and regulations between male and female insects, it was clear that I needed some time to accept my own actions.
Inside the car, Lingyi's personal information light flashed several times, but its owner ignored it, instead looking at the male insect in the passenger seat with a complex and unreadable expression, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
"Does the Lord know what granting me all access means?" Ling Yi asked in a hoarse voice.
