IHNMSL Chapter 46
by VolareChapter 46 Missing Male Bug Population +1
The little Male Bug’s eyelashes were long and thick, and his usually docile face, unaccustomed to hiding his emotions, revealed deep distress, his teeth clenched tightly…
Even the corners of his lips were bitten raw.
Chen Xing placed a finger against Yao’s teeth, gently prying them open to carefully examine the wound.
Then, she urgently kissed him, sweeping away the bloody taste between the Male Bug’s lips and teeth, her usually deep and indifferent expression displaying an unspeakable obsession and madness.
“Papa…”
She heard the Male Bug’s murmur in his sleep.
Yao’s teeth were grinding and biting against her, the moisture seeping through the thin layer of clothing to wet her skin. The pressure was neither painful nor itchy, yet it made Chen Xing’s entire being feel like it was burning up.
Yao, in his awakening state, seemed to be immersed in childhood memories. The unlucky child had never received his female parent’s affection, and during his oral fixation stage, the helpless Will could only rely on teething toys and pacifiers to soothe him.
“Baby, do you want milk?”
Chen Xing’s ears were so red they seemed to be dripping blood. Trembling, she adjusted Yao’s position, face to face, so he could touch her more freely and satisfy Baby Yao’s curiosity.
“Good boy… Yao Yao, don’t be afraid, I’m here…”
Chen Xing’s fingers gently touched the Male Bug’s defenseless, fragile wings.
Perhaps he had caught the scent of Chen Xing, the same reassuring presence he felt when being nurtured in his parent’s womb. The sensitive, silver-gold, thin wings obediently unfurled before her.
The tense little Male Bug finally relaxed under her soothing touch.
In fact, most body parts of Male Bugs and Female Bugs are not that different.
However, Female Bugs have innate advantages: tall, long legs, symmetrical abdominal muscles, suitable for carrying eggs; extremely high tolerance for pain; great strength, suitable for laying eggs; and strong pectoral muscles, perfect for nurturing young ones.
Chen Xing had seen in Yao’s childhood album the image of the little Male Bug obediently holding a milk bottle, drinking his milk, his eyes a light, silent color, small and skinny, which caused her great heartache.
The standard eye color of the Red Ruby Family was a deep, blood-red hue. Yao’s eye color, however, was very light, presenting a crystalline pink color, further adding a soft and docile touch to the little Male Bug’s appearance.
When Yao was three years old, he had not yet broken the habit of sucking his fingers. The already-grown milk teeth caused his ten fingers to often be gnawed until they were red, swollen, and broken.
Will was very troubled by this and even thought of personally breastfeeding Yao to make up for the little baby’s regret of not being able to drink his female parent’s bug milk.
However, Will’s fantasy was directly stopped by the doctor.
Not to mention whether the Duke’s failing organs, half of which were rescued, could withstand the stimulation, Will was taking medication long term, and the drug residue in his body could potentially affect the little prince’s health through his milk.
Will’s idea was ultimately shelved.
Later, because of his divorce with Chris, Will’s mental state was extremely unstable. The Male Bug Protection Association was worried that his out-of-control spiritual power would harm Yao.
Yao was transferred to the care of the Pure-Blood Judge Aikman, who fostered him.
This was the starting point of Aibei and Yao’s friendship.
At that time, Aibei was still a domineering little devil, not understanding the meaning of concession.
Yao’s arrival undoubtedly stirred his sensitive nerves.
Aikman was a strict father. Perhaps seeing how special Yao’s circumstances were, he gave him some pity and love.
His male parent had several mental breakdowns in front of Yao. The little cub lacked a sense of security to the extreme and had to chew on sweet candy to fall asleep.
This was not a good habit for a Bug pup, and Aikman was very worried that Yao’s teeth would be damaged. Excessive sugar intake was also detrimental to the cub’s thin and weak body.
What a little pitiful one. Yao, deprived of his lollipop, would refuse to communicate, curling up in a ball and silently crying. Aikman was extremely helpless and could only choose to indulge Yao.
As a result, Aibei could always see Yao with all kinds of rare candies in his mouth that he could never get.
Bias!
Little Aibei’s first impression of this cute younger brother was nothing but dislike. Why was his male parent only strict with him? He must have been adopted!
He, who had never lost since childhood, could not stand this kind of treatment. Immediately, he started fighting and snatching, even taking food from the well-behaved Yao’s mouth, not minding Yao’s saliva, grabbing it and stuffing it into his mouth.
Aibei was much healthier than Yao. Aikman was so angry that he severely disciplined Aibei for bullying the weak.
After that incident, Yao had a strong stress response. He discarded the lollipop and started compulsively chewing on his hand, using all his strength, more severely than ever before. It was difficult to stop, and he chewed until it was bloody.
Aibei was terrified…
He saw his male parent rush home after receiving the notification. Despite the accompanying medical officer’s disapproval, he injected an emulsified injection with a cold face.
Aibei didn’t dare to look at his papa, even less dared to look at the scene where the Great Judge, wearing an elaborate aristocratic uniform, expressionlessly lifted his clothing to his chest to breastfeed the cub, enduring the pain while comforting the teary-eyed cub who only wanted his biological male parent.
Through the subsequent breastfeedings, Aikman won the approval of the cub Yao. The young Yao seemed to regard Aikman as the female parent who nurtured him.
The little Male Bug’s thoughts were as simple as a blank sheet of paper, and he called Aikman “Papa” hesitantly.
Aikman stroked his head…
Later, after Will controlled his mental breakdown and took Yao back, he had already decided to forget the past and start a new life with his child.
Yao’s memories stopped there.
The aura of the Male Bug, having entered the mature stage of his spiritual body, suddenly changed.
Countless chaotic memories stirred in his mind, his brain aching, as if countless sharp blades were slicing through it again and again.
The overloaded spiritual power exploded. His bug life so far was like being put on rewind, and scenes flashed before his eyes in a flurry.
His male parent’s face, his female parent’s face, his brother…
And Chen Xing…
Scarlet blood flowed from the corner of the Male Bug’s mouth. The vast, boundless spiritual power belonging to the Pure-Blood Male Bug spread out from the small house, covering the entire Black Star with overwhelming force.
In an instant, everything fell silent.
Yao opened his eyes. The jewel-like eyes, which had changed from light pink to deep red, were as clear as ever, only with a bit more inorganic indifference.
Black Star seemed to stop breathing, without the breath of any living creatures. They were affected by Yao’s mental explosion and fell into an infant-like sleep.
A questioning gaze looked at the Female Bug, still unconscious in the spiritual link.
Yao waved his little spiritual tentacles. Perhaps the tentacles, which were now as thick as his wrist, could no longer be called “little.”
Yao could easily change their shape.
“?”
Yao tidied up his octopus-like tentacles, which were wrapped around the Female Bug, afraid that she would leave, and even tied a knot so tight it was deadly. A big question mark appeared above his head…
Sticky pheromones filled the Female Bug’s body, and her body was covered in ambiguous bite marks.
The little Male Bug hugged his wet tail hook, covered in unknown liquid, and tilted his head in slight distress, shaking it in confusion.
The entire planet was within his perception range. Yao didn’t know who he was, let alone what situation he was in.
He simply didn’t want to stay in this strange place any longer. The Male Bug disappeared…
Without leaving a trace.
