The interstellar war had dragged on for two hundred years. Their offspring dwindled, and the insect mothers of every tribe had died from intense radiation.
The insectoid race had been without an insect mother for far too long.
Then one day, a giant screen appeared in the center of City A-1 on the Capital Planet.
A helpless little insectoid baby shivered inside a broken box, his snow-white face filthy. He raised his head, yawned at empty air, then hugged himself and fell peacefully asleep.
[Gender: Insect Mother (Age: 1)]
[Health: 1 (minimum)]
[Happiness: -100 (can't get any lower)]
[Beauty: ... (displayed upon reaching adulthood)]
[Survival Rate: 0.01% (maximum: 100%)]
The butterfly-shaped insect mark on his forehead glimmered, on the verge of fading.
The insectoid race: "!!!"
What was going on?
"The Cloud-Raising Insect Mother Baby System is now online."
A short, sweet story, complete in under 100,000 words.
::::
Set in a fictional world unrelated to reality. Please don't read it as a commentary on the real world.

I've talked it over with my editor, and the story will go premium on August 7. Thank you for your support and encouragement. I'll do my best to keep updating!
Coming soon: Falling in Love with a Straight Guy While Acting
Third-rate actor Zhuo Wenqing is mired in scandals and can't get any roles. His only asset is his stunningly beautiful face.
When a director brings him a script about gay men, he takes the role just to survive.
Who knew he'd be playing the bottom, and that his very first scene would be a sex scene?
Zhuo Wenqing waves his hands frantically, his face red as a monkey's bottom, or like a fuzzy peach on sale for 9.9 yuan a jin with free shipping.
"Director, I'm straight. I don't really know how to act... I'm sorry, I'll leave now and won't take up any more of your time..."
The director grabs him. "No, no, Xiao Zhuo, your expression is perfect for our romantic bromance! We've already found your costar, top-tier star Jiang Dailan! It's his comeback role! You're bound to become famous! How could you not take it?" Then he changes tack. "I make over a hundred thousand a day on set, so you're filming whether you like it or not!"
Zhuo Wenqing has no choice. He doesn't dare defy the director, so he tucks both hands into his sleeves and waits meekly.
The director is delighted by his meek, mild-mannered look. Perfect, just perfect.
But an hour into filming, Jiang Dailan arrives late. He plops down on the sofa with an air of authority, glances up at Zhuo Wenqing, and sneers, "Him?"
Zhuo Wenqing's face turns even redder. He presses his lips together and gets up as if to leave, but doesn't dare. He sits and stands again, fidgeting for a while. His slender, pale fingers grip the rough edge of a wooden stool. His long legs, encased in washed-blue jeans, are clamped tightly together. Blushing, he looks around nervously, his eyes seeming ready to brim with tears at any moment.
Jiang Dailan thinks, What kind of guy is this? Such a wimp, so girly. Can he even act?
But the more Jiang Dailan looks at him, the drier his throat gets, as if it's on fire.
The shrewd director knows he's got a chance. He casually pulls Jiang Dailan aside and murmurs, "He may seem a bit girly, but he ranked first in acting at the Shanghai Theatre Academy! He would've been famous already if he hadn't been caught up in so many scandals about casting couches! You turned down all the others I picked for you. I've already arranged the romance variety show and interviews for later. Don't worry about the script, you can change whatever you want! If he doesn't work out, we'll find someone else!"
Zhuo Wenqing looks up unexpectedly, his eyes glistening, lips parted, his face full of surprise.
At three in the afternoon, the old painting hanging on the wall behind him is bathed in orange light. He sits surrounded by light and shadow, as if the image of that summer has frozen in time.
Afterward, whenever Jiang Dailan thinks of his Wenqing, he remembers his heart pounding on that scorching afternoon.
Back then, he said with disdain in his eyes:
"No need to find someone else. I'll take him." Jiang Dailan takes off his shirt and says succinctly, "Let's shoot."

It may be time to start Dafa, warning!
Huh? The baby is currently considered to be a female insect. Doesn't it mean that the male is superior to the female? That dad didn't like the baby so much because he was of low level, but later he said that the birth rate of cubs was very low, only a few dozen a year. Things are rare and valuable. It feels a little inconsistent.
Congratulations on being in V. The writing is really beautiful. Shelley deserves everyone's love.
But the cub stage goes by so fast
