Chapter 4

After Li Zhi understood clearly, he put down the computer.

When I looked up, through the large and bright transparent glass of the treatment room, I saw Jiang Yue and Su Jing, who had left for a while and returned. The two handsome men were silently guarding outside.

Sensing the movement, Jiang Yue raised his eyes slightly and met Li Zhi's gaze. His calm eyes moved, and the originally cold expression on his sharp face softened a little.

Su Jing leaned over and tapped the glass gently, his slightly upturned peach blossom eyes smiling: "Xiao Li Zhi, you must be hungry, come on, brother will take you to eat~"

Li Zhi followed the two to the dining cabin on the airship. As soon as she stepped through the door, she was stared at by a group of males.

Females are already scarce in the empire, not to mention the combat airships that are filled with male warriors. Li Zhi is the first little female to appear here in such a long time.

For the single males who have been fighting in the army for many years and have never seen females, this is like a rare and delicious delicacy placed in front of a hungry wolf. They have to force themselves not to have a faint green light in their eyes.

This little female is still so beautiful, with a small face the size of a palm, black and bright almond eyes, clear and innocent eyes. She is wearing a white slim dress, like a little fairy who has fallen into the world, delicate, lovely, cute and beautiful.

The name is so nice, Lizhi, and the person is just as the name suggests, just like a crystal clear, sweet and delicious lychee.

What's more, this was a little female that they rescued with their own hands.

The scene when she was discovered was clearly recorded by the combat goggles. The photos and videos were circulated among the soldiers on the airship. All the males were deeply shocked by the scene and would never forget it.

Unfortunately, although the little female's life was saved, it is said that the pheromone has backfired and dissipated. However, this only makes people feel more distressed for her and want to cherish and protect her.

Li Zhi's face turned red as she was stared at by a group of strong and masculine men with excited and fiery gazes. She was so embarrassed that she hid behind Jiang Yue.

I couldn't help but feel sensitive and uneasy in my heart. I don't know why, but I always felt that their eyes were very complicated, as if they contained some sympathy and pity...

I thought that they should have done a physical examination when they treated me, combined with the worries I had when I learned about the background of this world.

Li Zhi lowered her eyes slightly. Was it because everyone knew that she was different from the females here and did not have pheromones?
How would they view or treat her?
However, judging from the attitude I have felt so far, it seems that there is no discrimination and it is quite well-intentioned.
Jiang Yue noticed her shyness and discomfort, and used his tall body to protectively block the petite person and glanced at her indifferently.

He had previously ordered everyone not to mention the sad matter of pheromone collapse in front of the little female.

But even though the males didn't speak, their silent gazes were too offensive!

Under the warning gaze of the Imperial Major General, the male warriors reluctantly turned their heads and restrained their fiery gazes.

Su Jing brought her to a self-service dining area similar to the one on Earth. The stall was filled with a wide variety of nutritious food, all of which they had previously instructed the kitchen to prepare specially for the little female.

When Li Zhi saw the sumptuous food, her stomach, which had not eaten for a long time, suddenly growled a few times involuntarily. Her face immediately turned red and she covered her stomach embarrassedly.

A smile could not help but show in Jiang Yue's ink-black eyes, and a smile also appeared in Su Jing's peach blossom eyes as he handed her the plate.

"Take whatever you want to eat. If you have any favorites, you can tell me and ask the kitchen to make them. Your body needs more nutrition to recover faster, Oguri."

Li Zhi felt relieved by their friendly and caring attitude. He nodded and walked along the food pick-up area to pick up a few items of food, a small amount of meat and mostly light vegetables.

The last area was the dessert area. Su Jing noticed that Li Zhi was going to skip it, so he raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Little Li Zhi, don't females like to eat sweets? Don't you like them?"

The male soldiers in the army don't like sweets, so this is the caramel pudding they prepared specifically for the little females.

Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to explain. Her life on Earth had always been hard.

Since I was a child, I have been living in a poor welfare home with incomplete infrastructure. My food and clothing depend on occasional charitable donations from kind-hearted people in society. Resources are scarce and need to be distributed evenly, so I often don't have enough to eat or wear.

After going to school, I have been working part-time to pay for my studies. I live a tight and frugal life. I only care about cheap and affordable food, and often rely on expiring fast food products to fill my stomach. I have no quality of life.

In this case, if she has eaten sweetness, it would be difficult to endure bitterness, so she stopped eating sweetness.

Seeing that she was silent, Su Jing thought that the little female was embarrassed, so he picked up a portion of pudding, put it in front of her after she sat down at the table, and smiled as if coaxing a child.

"Try it, it's specially prepared for you, it's delicious!"

Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, feeling embarrassed to refuse his kindness, so she picked up the spoon, scooped a small piece and put it into her mouth. The sweet and chewy taste made her squint her eyes involuntarily, like a sated little animal.

Very sweet and delicious!

Su Jing sat back in the chair, his hands lazily resting on the backrest, paying attention to her expression. Seeing her, he narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and smiled: "See, I said, there is no little female who doesn't like sweet food."

However, before he could laugh a few more times, he saw Li Zhi stop after taking a few bites of pudding, put the dessert bowl aside, and turned to eat the food he had picked up.

Su Jing was immediately surprised: "Doesn't it suit your taste?"

Li Zhi glanced at the pudding reluctantly and shook his head: "No, it's delicious, but I don't want to eat it anymore."

Jiang Yue didn't say anything, but just stared at Li Zhi silently, his deep eyes showing seriousness and inquiry, his eyes focused and thoughtful.

For some reason, he seemed to be able to guess and understand why Li Zhi didn't eat much sweets.

People who have suffered a lot like him would not dare to eat sweet things.

Afraid of sweetness, and even more afraid of getting used to it.

I believe that such a delicate little female will have countless males willing to protect her with their lives no matter where she is. Hasn’t she been treated well and suffered a lot before?

Whenever he thought of such a possibility, his throat tightened and he felt a little distressed.

Su Jing finished his meal quickly and elegantly, and looked sideways at Li Zhi who was chewing food like a little hamster. He smiled and said, "Little Li Zhi, the spacecraft will arrive at the capital of the Imperial Star soon. When you finish eating, we will take you to the Citizen Center to enter your personal information."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi immediately quickened his chewing speed, finished his food in no time, put down his cutlery, and nodded obediently: "Okay, I've finished eating."

Now even Su Jing felt something was wrong. He subconsciously looked at Jiang Yue and saw the same puzzled look on his face. He suddenly felt a mixture of pity because of some kind of speculation.

In a social culture where there are more men than women, the females with high social status in the empire are all very confident and true to themselves, and may even be a little willful, arrogant and domineering.

I don’t know what this little female named Li Zhi has been through to have such a gentle and sensible, even cautious and flattering personality.

You know, a little princess who grew up in pampering doesn't need to be so sensible.
