The Female Insect Won Over the Workaholic's White Moonlight (Insectoid)

Taking a day off on the 28th. The author is stuck.

Before reading the first three chapters, you can read the author's note at the end of Chapter 26.

Back at military school, Lin Ang and Pei Lin were like parallel lines that never met.

One was cool and carefree, adored by everyone. The other kept his love buried in his heart, too afraid to approach.

Lin Ang slowly worked his way up in the military, all the while keeping an eye on Pei Lin. After joining the research institute, that male insect rose step by step to the top of imperial research through his work on fourth-generation mechs and his outstanding professional skills.

A pheromone compatibility report let Lin Ang fulfill his dearest wish and marry Pei Lin as his female spouse. He even worked up the courage to confess to his male spouse on their wedding night, only to be rejected by Pei Lin: "If we hadn't been matched, I wouldn't have married any female insect, or any demi-female insect."

Lin Ang continued to love Pei Lin with all his heart. Pei Lin complained that nutrient solution tasted awful, so as soon as Lin Ang finished a mission, he rushed to the research institute to bring him food.

Pei Lin liked looking at the stars, so Lin Ang used his position to take his male spouse into space once a week.

But Pei Lin began playing hard to get, showing off their affection in front of his rivals without a word and drawing Lin Ang into pursuing him step by step.

Drunk, Lin Ang suddenly threw himself into Pei Lin's arms. "Male spouse, I'm scared. I'm so scared you don't like me."

"I really like you so much."

The next morning, Pei Lin kept him trapped at home, whether or not he'd been blackout drunk: "Say what you said yesterday again. Get one word wrong, and you won't be allowed out again."

Reading guide:

Below are two upcoming novels, with content warnings.

Falling in Love Through Gacha

Jiang Mian is an ordinary office worker. Like everyone else, she works to earn money, then goes home with no time to cook and orders takeout every day, numbly going through one day after another. Only when she opens her game at night can she relax and enjoy the comfort of her anime boyfriend.

One day, after a miracle single pull, her paper-doll boyfriend really appears by her side.

Seeing the familiar uniform on him, her eyes redden before she knows it. He pulls her tightly into his arms.

Her voice is full of tears: "I'm so glad you came."

The two-dimensional paper-doll Lin Zhi'an is a rich second-generation heir and a rock climber. He's usually kind and excels both at climbing and business.

He has a girlfriend, but for some reason, he has never known what she looks like.

Until one day, a mysterious force draws him into the real world. As soon as he opens his eyes, his beloved is standing in front of him with red-rimmed eyes. He reaches out and pulls her close. "I'm here."

Bonus scene:

Once, Jiang Mian did a ten-pull and got nothing. At last, fortune smiled on her and gave her a free-pull card.

When Lin Zhi'an arrived, she hugged him tightly.

"Don't worry about it~"

"I don't."

Because we're already lucky enough.

Reading notes:

1. The male lead is only the heroine's in-game male lead. I think anyone who plays otome games knows that the male leads belong to each player alone. The protagonists' love doesn't disturb anyone in the game or the real world.

2. Just a sweet happy ending. The author has been feeling down lately and wrote this to escape reality.

3. Neither protagonist is based on a real person!!!
