The Insectoid Widower Is Forced into a Shura Field

The main story is told in third person. My solemn, dignified female spouse died on the battlefield. My female spouse, Phitalus, was excellent in every way, objectively speaking. He came from an outstanding family, was powerful, and had perfect looks... He had been incredible from childhood onward, always hailed by the media as a shining example of the insect race and a model citizen. But he was not the five-star female spouse the public imagined. The reason was this: when the Male Insect Protection Association came to our home to recommend female concubines for me, Phitalus dropped his fake, official smile for the first time and coldly drove them out. Neither I nor the association understood why he did it. For reasons I still don't know, we somehow grew distant. Or rather, I was the one who distanced myself from him. Phitalus went to the battlefield, and then he died. He was the most suitable partner I'd ever had, and I was very satisfied with him. So when I heard the news, I was sad for a few days. Then my friends and family urged me: You should find a new other-father for your insect child. I took their advice. The first insect to appear before me was the Empire's second prince. He was extremely possessive. I had only dated him for a while, but he clung to me like a rabid dog. It annoyed me. No. The second was my S-rank male insect classmate. It turned out he was actually female. I had treated him as a friend, but he'd been deceiving me all along. No. The third and fourth were nephews of Phitalus, from the same species. They were twins. They acted very obedient in front of me, meekly saying they would do anything as long as they could stay by my side, even if that meant becoming a shadow of another insect. It would have been fine if I hadn't seen them wearing deranged smiles as they trampled the other female insect who was courting me, then started fighting each other. After all sorts of twists and turns, I finally found a female insect I could stand the sight of and was about to enter the marriage hall. Then, at the wedding, my legal female spouse came back. And he had even more power in his hands. [This is a fictional setting unrelated to reality. Please don't compare it to real life.] Tips: 1. A widower raising a child: a gloomy, sickly, somewhat scummy, incredibly handsome gong, whose strength and weakness fluctuate with his health. 2. The shou is far more in love with the gong. The gong only reciprocates later in the story. 3. The gong is not a virgin. Don't place bets on the gong. He's had several relationships along the way. His endgame partner is Phitalus. 4. This is very, very melodramatic! Every character has moral flaws, cracks in their morals, or moral Mariana Trenches. They're insects, after all, and definitely don't conform to human values. Not for readers who expect characters to be morally upright. The blurb has been screenshotted. Theme: Love gives life meaning
