Jiang Zheyu thought about her previous Spiritual Comfort sessions.

It was true that she felt a little dizzy after providing Spiritual Comfort, but she would recover after a few minutes of rest.

For example, after giving the Wolf Boy Spiritual Comfort, she had recovered within a few minutes and felt fine.

She silently typed her reply: "Mr. Su, ever since my spiritual power increased, I’ve noticed that I can recover my energy just a few minutes after providing you with Spiritual Comfort. So, I can perform it for you tonight."

As Jiang Zheyu typed her reply, she glanced at the time and saw that it was already a little past eleven.

A wave of anxiety washed over her.

’Is Su Yan not planning to come back tonight?’

Su Yan was indeed held up by matters at the military base. He was currently processing some military documents.

He had retreated from the front lines to a behind-the-scenes role.

His high Beastification Value had led to him being forcibly ordered to withdraw from the front lines. This meant he no longer needed to pilot a Mecha to battle the Zerg Race. Instead, he sat in a secure office within the Empire, processing reports sent back from the battlefield.

But Su Yan had always wanted to return to the front lines. He believed that only by being there in person could he obtain more accurate intelligence and, consequently, defeat the Zerg Race more quickly.

Currently, the Third Legion was deep in the F5 Nebula, developing a nearby Deserted Star. They needed to ensure the Zerg Race was completely annihilated before they could begin constructing a military base and proceed to the next phase.

However, the Third Legion was now facing a new, unknown type of Zerg, and all contact with their personnel had been lost.

Su Yan ordered his men to strengthen the interstellar communication link and quickly locate the missing personnel.

Unable to go to the battlefield himself, he could only stand before a massive screen, observing the various points on the interstellar map and studying the cosmic formations around the Deserted Star.

"Yan Team, the Star Cloud Data for the area around the Deserted Star has been compiled." A young man rushed in, carrying a huge stack of documents.

At that moment, Su Yan was looking at a message on his Light Brain. The girl seemed very eager for him to return.

The previous message explained that she recovered quickly, and now, another one had just arrived on his Light Brain.

Female Master Yu Yu: Mr. Su, are you still coming back tonight?

This message also conveyed her strong anticipation for his return.

Su Yan stroked the edge of his Light Brain for a long time, his red eyes fixed on the message.

’She addresses me so formally, yet her actions show she’s eager to give me Spiritual Comfort.’

Su Yan couldn’t quite figure out the girl’s thoughts. He only knew that seeing her ask if he was coming back caused a slight stir in his heart.

An image of the girl sitting obediently on the sofa, waiting for him, appeared in his mind.

"I’ll be home tonight," Su Yan slowly replied. After a moment’s thought, he added, "I’ll be home before midnight."

On the other end, Jiang Zheyu saw the message and still felt a little worried.

’Before midnight... but what time exactly? Eleven-forty and eleven-fifty are also "before midnight."’

’If Su Yan comes back at 11:50, it’ll be a race against time. Can I even finish purifying his Beastification Value before the deadline?’

The office was sleek, cold, white, and monotonous.

The young man stood by with the documents, not daring to speak. He waited until Su Yan finished replying to his message, then glanced at him stealthily and tentatively spoke up, "Yan Team, these documents..."

"Give me the Star Cloud Data. The stellar matter data goes to Feng Lan." Su Yan strode over and took the documents from the young man’s hands. "Tell Feng Lan to figure out the problem and contact the Third Legion’s personnel tonight. If he can’t get through, he doesn’t get to go home until he does."

The young man asked in surprise, "Yan Team, you’re not spending the night here?"

Previously, Su Yan had always slept in his office like a complete workaholic, waking up each day only to process various documents.

The young man had assumed Su Yan was just that kind of hardcore person.

Although Yan Team always had a frosty expression and was stone-faced at work, his attitude was actually quite friendly in private when work wasn’t involved.

That was why he dared to ask such a direct question.

’What in the world could make the workaholic Yan Team actually go home?!’

The young man clearly didn’t know that Su Yan had already gone home a few times in the past few days instead of sleeping in the office.

Su Yan’s reply was to turn back toward his desk, followed by a single, faint word: "Yeah."

Ji Wu’s eyes widened in astonishment. ’Yan Team is actually going home!’

"Is there something else?" Su Yan glanced up coolly, noticing Ji Wu was still there.

Ji Wu quickly waved his hands. "No, no, I’ll be on my way."

He hurried out and closed the door.

Then, out of curiosity, he went to ask his other colleagues.

"Hey, did you guys hear? Yan Team is finally planning to go home today!" Ji Wu said mysteriously to the other Beastmen. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

He thought the others would be surprised, but they just nodded calmly after hearing what he said.

"Hey, aren’t you guys surprised?" Ji Wu asked, finding their reaction odd.

"You must not have been on duty. Yan Team has gone home several times in the last few days," someone next to him said casually.

Ji Wu: "..."

’So I’m the last one to know!’

"Oh my god, you guys, look at Xingdou!" a male Beastman exclaimed excitedly. "This female is so beautiful, and her dancing is amazing! Is she a new female on the Imperial Capital Star? What’s her name? I need to know everything about her!"

"I don’t know what ’classical dance’ is, but the little female’s feet are so pretty, and her waist is so slender..." another male Beastman gushed, practically drooling over his Light Brain.

"Don’t females just spend their days drinking tea, reading books, and watering flowers?" Ji Wu looked at his excited friends, speechless. He gave them a disdainful glance. "What kind of dancing can they even do? You’re not calling a few random movements ’dancing,’ are you? Look at you single Beastmen getting all worked up."

Still, the idea of a female dancing for them to see was quite surprising.

After all, females were always held in high regard, on a pedestal; they would never dance for them.

So, intrigued, Ji Wu also leaned in for a look.

The moment he saw it, he immediately got excited too. "Whoa, oh my—how do I put it? She’s so beautiful, like a gorgeous butterfly."

The person in the video was wearing a mask, but because of her city-toppling dance, everyone was convinced that the face beneath it had to be absolutely beautiful.

Ji Wu quickly memorized the female’s ID. It felt a little familiar, but he didn’t dwell on it. He went on Xingdou, searched for her, and after quickly following her, he posted a comment: "Beautiful female, I’m a single Butterfly Beastman, 187cm tall, 52kg. Current assets are one hundred million Star Coins. No bad habits, extremely devoted to my Female Master. Feel free to slide into my DMs."

The female’s comment section was already flooded. He thought his own comment was quite bold, until he saw what other Beastmen were posting:

Wifey, look at me, look at me!

Wifey, my fox tail is a little itchy, it wants you to pet it!

Wifey, my cat ears don’t feel right, they need wifey to pinch them!

...

Ji Wu’s mouth twitched. ’What a bunch of shameless Beastmen!’

Then, in the next second, he posted:

Wifey, my butterfly bones are a little itchy, they want wifey to touch them.
