The following days were relatively peaceful. Xu Le was busy with the branch store, Chu Xinhang was busy recruiting and training employees, and Shen Nanxi continued to go to the hospital every day as before. Only Chu Yang had some free time for a while.
During this period, Dean Li often brought his students to visit and learn, although their soil cultivation experiments did not make much progress.
Just as Chu Yang was enjoying his leisurely life, a phone call shattered his peace.
The call was from Shen Nanxi, who sounded very urgent. He simply said he had something important to discuss with the hospital. Remembering the time he was beaten up, Chu Yang immediately flew to the hospital in his aircraft. After parking it, he rushed to the hospital director's office.
"Yes or no...."
Just as I arrived at the door and was about to ask, I saw three insects sitting in the office wearing green uniforms with the police team's insignia embroidered on their chests.
"Brother~"
Shen Nanxi's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of tension and worry.
The atmosphere in the office was somewhat serious. Chu Yang unconsciously swallowed, his hand instinctively gripping the hem of his shirt. He frowned slightly and asked them in a low voice.
"I wonder why you called me here?"
The security captain, with a serious expression, took out a screen and handed it to Chu Yang with both hands.
"Lord Chu Yang, do you still remember that fugitive insect who harmed you back then?"
After he finished speaking, a female insect with long brown hair appeared on the electronic screen. Her eyes were fierce, and she looked very menacing. The clear face immediately overlapped with the previously blurry memory.
"His name is Xue Fengyi. He is a retired female soldier who had been on the run from planet to planet for harming male insects. Last year, he fled to planet D06 and injured you during a mental breakdown. Fortunately, our security team on planet B058 discovered and arrested him not long ago."
"That's good now that you've caught them. Just send me a message; there's no need for you to make a special trip over here."
Hearing that it wasn't anything serious, Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and released his grip on the hem of his clothes.
The security team leader frowned slightly, looking at Chu Yang with a hint of pity in his eyes.
"We are here for another matter. Xue Fengyi has a female child. Based on the timeline, it is highly likely that the female child is yours. However, we will need to conduct a genetic comparison with you to determine the specifics."
Female? Chu Yang's brain went blank for a while.
"I...I'm a little confused. Are you sure it's mine?"
The other person didn't speak, but his eyes answered Chu Yang. Just as Chu Yang hesitated, an even more explosive message was delivered.
"Your Excellency Chu Yang, I'm afraid you'll have to come with us to the hospital on planet B066 now. The insect cub is in critical condition and could die at any moment."
For a fleeting moment, Chu Yang felt his mind go blank, and he immediately grabbed the security captain's arm, trying to pull him outside. His lips twitched involuntarily.
"Take me to see him quickly."
The trembling voice made the security team leader's eyes light up immediately. He hadn't had high hopes before coming, as male insects don't really care about their female offspring, let alone those conceived under those circumstances.
"Brother, I'll go with you."
Shen Nanxi held Chu Yang's hand, which was covered in cold sweat, and said urgently.
"Dean..."
"Go ahead"
The old dean glanced at them but didn't stop them.
After boarding the security team's aircraft, Chu Yang remained silent, crossed his legs, and nervously bit his thumb nail. Shen Nanxi, who was beside him, sent a message to Chu Xinhang, recounting what had happened.
The journey to planet B066 was quick, taking only an hour, but Chu Yang felt extremely uncomfortable during that hour, even biting his fingernails raw.
"Lord Chu Yang, we have arrived."
The security captain's words were like a lifeline, and Chu Yang stood up abruptly, following them briskly to a special cub ward.
When the doctor saw them, hope ignited in his eyes. After confirming their information, he led Chu Yang and Shen Nanxi into the ward.
The ward wasn't large, and it was filled with a lot of equipment. The first thing Chu Yang saw when he entered the room was a small, wrinkled baby lying on a transparent glass bed in the center of the room.
His hair was black, his eyes were covered by white gauze, and he had tubes inserted into his body. The distance was a bit far, and Chu Yang seemed unable to see clearly as he staggered towards the glass bed step by step.
The closer he got, the faster his heart pounded. Looking at the small figure lying inside, barely bigger than his own palm, Chu Yang held his breath as he approached the glass bed.
For some reason, an indescribable emotion arose in my heart, and the closer I got, the stronger this feeling became.
"Sir, we need to do a genetic comparison first..."
"No need to do it anymore, he is my female."
Chu Yang stared at the larvae on the bed without looking up, not daring to blink, his emotions about to burst forth.
"What's going on? Even if it was premature, it shouldn't be this weak."
As a doctor, Shen Nanxi frowned and asked the attending physician next to her.
"Well, according to his mother, the eggshell was accidentally broken during the escape, the chick was forced to come out, and the eggshell was also lost."
"What? The eggshell is missing."
Shen Nanxi exclaimed that the cubs usually stay in the mother's womb for 5 months. After they are born, they do not hatch directly, but stay in an incubator until they are fully developed. Then they will slowly eat their own eggshell from the inside out. The eggshell is the first line of defense for the cub's future growth.
"Not only is the eggshell missing, but the chicks are not fully developed and their wings are damaged."
The doctor spoke much softer. Strictly speaking, he wasn't a female insect, nor a sub-female; he was merely a disabled insect. For such offspring, their physical condition would be worse than that of other normal insects.
Chu Yang heard everything they said, and his vision blurred as he looked at the cub. He couldn't help but reach out his trembling fingers and gently touch the cub's little hand.
Perhaps sensing that it was its father, the cub suddenly burst into tears, though its cries were as soft and weak as a kitten's.
"Doctor, why is he crying?"
Looking at Chu Yang, who was in tears, Shen Nanxi felt a tightness in her chest and blamed Xue Fengyi, the insect. If he had turned himself in while pregnant, the offspring wouldn't be in this state now.
"He must have sensed the male father's pheromones. Your Excellency, you can hug him; he desperately needs your pheromones to soothe him."
After saying that, the doctor picked up the cub lying on the bed and handed it to Chu Yang.
Chu Yang stretched out his trembling hands, stopped in mid-air, turned to look at Shen Nanxi, and said in a tearful voice.
"I...I don't know how to hold him, I'm afraid I'll hurt him."
"Brother, it's okay. You can bend both arms like this."
Shen Nanxi positioned Chu Yang's arms properly, then took the insect from the doctor and carefully placed it on his arms.
"Yes, that's it. Support his head with one hand and protect his waist and bottom with the other."
The baby insect in his arms was a soft lump. Chu Yang was both excited and scared. He held his baby insect close to his chest. Because it was not fully developed, its skin was wrinkled and not pretty at all. Its black hair was very soft. He lowered his head and sniffed the baby insect. A milky fragrance filled his nostrils.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. Suddenly, she released her pheromones, and the baby in her arms gradually calmed down, its little hands tightly gripping Chu Yang's clothes.
The other insects in the room were so overwhelmed by the sudden pheromones that their eyes turned red, and they quickly retreated. Shen Nanxi, however, was used to this and didn't find it uncomfortable at all.
