[Insectoid] Hello, Major General. Let's Get Married.

Note: After this novel is completed, its title will be changed to I Watch the Flowers Bloom.

Also known as: Major General, I'm Going to Start Pursuing You.

Shen Que, the second young master of the Chancellor's residence, is a famous sickly weakling throughout the capital, coughing every three steps and wheezing every five.

But that's just a front. In secret, he's the third-in-command of a famous assassin organization, renowned for his mastery of poison. The only slight drawback is that when making poison, he can't be bothered to make an antidote, and ends up accidentally poisoning himself to death.

When he wakes up again, he realizes he has no idea what remote corner of the world he's in.

Shen Que wanders around this wasteland for more than ten days. Aside from occasionally spotting an animal or two, there's not another person in sight.

Then one day, he finds a little ball glowing red. This ancient curiosity is so amazing and novel that he holds it and fiddles with it for a while, only to discover that the little thing can fly. Shen Que feels as if he's opened the door to a whole new world.

At first, the empire's insects are furious and heartbroken that their little male insect prince has ended up on a desolate planet.

But when they see their little male insect take down a wolf beast (wolf) in just a few moves and prepare to eat it, they fall into a strange silence. If he were a female insect, this would be perfectly normal. But the problem is, this is a male insect juvenile! Aaaaaah!

Major General Louis is ordered to bring the little male insect back.

But he never expected things to take such a strange turn.

"Hello, my name is Shen Que. I'm nineteen, male, and I like men. Please get ready, because I might start pursuing you. What's your name?"

"Uh... Lou, Louis."

Waaah, Louis, how can you have exactly the looks I like?

"Admiral Louis, may I pursue you now?" asks a male insect who has somehow worked his way up to a civilian lieutenant general.

"My lord... D-don't... don't tease me... Mm."

Shen Que smiles. His wife is still so easy to tease.

A male insect who's elegant and composed on the surface but has a whole drama playing out inside, gentle as jade with his own people and a living devil to outsiders × a cool, reserved female insect who blushes at the slightest flirtation, stubborn, insecure, and introverted, a former major general who later becomes an admiral

Content warnings:

1. Mpreg.

2. Shen Que is very lazy. There won't be any overthrowing the regime or fighting for equality between male and female insects.

3. Louis is a sweetheart. If you don't like his lack of confidence, you can move on, but don't insult my darling Louis.

4. The plot is all for the author's enjoyment. No one's being forced to read it. Suggestions are welcome, but don't tell me how to write.

5. Shen Que has questionable morals and won't overthink things. He'll do whatever is easiest.

6. The worldbuilding is entirely my own.

7. The story leans toward the top's perspective, but my darling Louis will definitely get plenty of scenes. If you're an extreme bottom- or top-fan, please quietly move on. They're both my precious sons.

Theme: Whatever decisions you make, protect yourself first.
