The Queen's Rules of Reproduction

After living in the human world for a while, insect queen You Lidi realizes there's a reason her consort betrayed her: arranged marriages are nothing but trouble!

She learns her lesson. Reproduction should begin with romance.

Her first human boyfriend's melancholy, delicate temperament perfectly matched You Lidi's tastes. She patiently indulged him for a while, but just as they reached the hand-holding and kissing stage, he went to war and died.

For her second boyfriend, she found someone strong and went straight to the point on their very first day together. Only later did she learn that human men have no gestation sac. She could give him plenty, but he couldn't do his part and give her offspring.

You Lidi quickly moved on and hooked up with a medical student, working with him to research artificial insemination and technological reproduction.

[The double-S prodigy in the command department finally broke up]

[One is the strongest in the whole school, the other the weakest. They were such a mismatch. I knew they'd break up sooner or later.]

[An E-rank, of all people. The prodigy was only playing around.]

[Just look at your pathetic aptitude. No skills, yet you dreamed of marrying into a better life. Bet you're crying your eyes out now.]

Everyone took the breakup between the prodigy and the cripple as the perfect ending, and happily went off to bed.

But just a few days later, the school's worst E-rank girl was seen holding hands with the medical department's two-way empathic genius, while the double-S prodigy and the empire's ruler, nicknamed the Bloodthirsty Emperor, blocked their way at the school gates.

The double-S prodigy frowned as he sized up the scrawny medical student. "Can his body satisfy you?"

You Lidi: "We're truly in love. We don't need to do it."

The Bloodthirsty Emperor coldly glanced at the two superfluous men. "Before I enlisted, you said you'd wait for me to come back so we could do it together!"

The two-way empathic genius medical student tightened his grip on You Lidi's hand and said in a low, plaintive voice, "True love wants to do it."

More than three hundred years ago, vicious alien species invaded human star systems. With humanity facing extinction, they developed an evolution serum. The serum made humans stronger, but they nearly lost the ability to reproduce. Fortunately, technology made up for that shortcoming. Still, only those with a Talent Recruitment Qualification Certificate, a First-Class Interstellar University Diploma, a Double-A Mental Power Certificate... and one million credits could take a number at the Glass Tower and queue up to claim a child of their own.

To tear open a passage through space and time and return to the insect world, she needed a child of the queen's bloodline.

To bear an insectling and open a passage home, Her Majesty the Queen embarked on the wild path of falling in love with humans.

Any romance that isn't aimed at reproduction is just a scam!!

Note:

1. The female lead has no romantic experience; the male leads do.

2. The heroine is an insect queen.

3. The setting is fictional and has no connection to reality.

Qiao Mi: ??

Her gaze swept across the tightly packed zombies outside, all drooling at her, and she fell silent.

At last, she understood why she'd been single for more than twenty years. She'd never imagined that her future husband would be a zombie.

Captain Zhou Feng was badly wounded during a secret mission and took shelter in a secluded courtyard at the end of an alley. The courtyard was crawling with zombies. He was about to gather his power and kill the ones closing in when a woman rushed out of the house and shouted, "Don't kill my husband! If you have a problem, take it up with me. My husband may have done wrong, but he doesn't deserve to die!"

Only then did Zhou Feng notice that all the zombies in the courtyard were men. They were dressed neatly, and not only did the exposed waists have defined abs, their faces were all... handsome, too. He calmly asked, "Which one is your husband?"

"Oh, they're all my husbands."

There's a story at the base about a woman wandering outside its walls. She's as beautiful as a fairy, appears and disappears without a trace, and sometimes stops squads searching for supplies to babble nonsense and force them to play role-playing games.

She slapped a bald man with a burly build and a full beard. Shaking her hand and crying out in pain, she gritted her teeth and yelled, "You little homewrecker! You dared to steal my husband! I'll rip out every last hair on your head!"

She took a filthy little child by the hand and smiled kindly. "So you're the illegitimate child my husband left behind! Don't worry. I love what I love, so I'll take good care of you."

Someone asked Qiao Mi what ability she had awakened.

Qiao Mi thought for a moment. "Does having lots of husbands count?"

Later, another story was added to the legend of the wicked, crazy fairy. They say she abducted Captain Zhou, the strongest person at the base, and was going to take him home to become her 108th husband.

In response, the protagonist, Zhou Feng, calmly took off his shirt to show his abs. "Send them all away, and I'll let you touch my abs as much as you want."

Qiao Mi looked him up and down, biting her lip in indecision. "So... I can only touch your abs?"

At first, the man ground his teeth and scowled. "Don't push your luck."

Later, his voice husky, the man said, "It's not even dawn yet. Keep going..."
