63. A Tumor vs. A Child

Pregnant? Impossible! Shu Shu was a beastman; how could he become pregnant? Moreover, he and Shu Shu only got married less than two months ago; it’s impossible to get pregnant and for the child to grow so fast! Edgar could not help but think that the doctor was talking nonsense. "You check it more clearly!"

"Yeah, I obviously only have a tumor, and I’m going to have an operation to remove it tomorrow!" Shu Shu also said. Even if the sub-beastmen in this world had internal reproductive organs and could get pregnant, but he was not a sub-beastman, ah. He absolutely didn’t have those organ; so how could he get pregnant?

The questioned doctor stared at the examination device on his hand, somewhat bewildered—could it be that he was really mistaken?

After giving it some thought, the doctor asked, "Your Imperial Highness the Crown Prince, will you let me try examine the crown princess once again?"

"Quickly do it!" Edgar, seeing Shu Shu’s deathly white complexion, stated without the slightest hesitation.

The doctor started to give Shu Shu another examination right away and even pressed Shu Shu’s abdomen with his hand.

It was at this time everyone finally realized that Shu Shu’s belly was a little big . . . . Shu Shu wore loose clothes and was standing before, so everyone didn’t see it, but now that Shu Shu was half-carried in the crown prince’s arms for the examination, his belly became conspicuous . . . . The crown princess’ belly looked exactly the same as a pregnant sub-beastman’s.

Donald had collapsed, but the live broadcast on the star network still continued and was still the same 360-degree, omni-directional, and three-dimensional live broadcast as before. Who made the crown prince unable to manage this thing? Other people did not dare to make decisions without permission.

The bad guy had been beaten, and the crown prince had already rescued the crown princess. Now that the situation was no longer critical, everyone had time to discuss it. "What the hell is this all about? The Imperial family intends to announce the news of the crown princess’ pregnancy to clarify the previous rumor of the crown prince losing his beast bead?"

"Wanting to clarify is also not like this, ah. If they really want to clarify, why on earth do they still insist on saying that the crown princess has a tumor when the doctor has said that it’s pregnancy?"

"With how the crown princess looks, it seems that he’s really pregnant."

"It’s totally impossible for His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince and the crown princess to not even know if it’s pregnancy, right? So, it should be really a tumor."

"I also think it should be really a tumor . . . . The crown princess won’t have a problem, will he?"

. . . . . .

Before, Donald said that the crown prince had no beast bead. If the crown prince really didn’t have it, and yet the crown princess still got pregnant, it was unlikely that they still didn’t admit the pregnancy at this time. Therefore . . . the crown princess was estimated to be really unwell.

For a moment, the live broadcast viewers all started to inwardly pray for the crown princess, hoping that he would not have something.

There were more and more people watching the live broadcast right now. After Myer was informed by some people, he also went to watch the live broadcast.

Seeing Edgar holding Shu Shu with gaze firmly stuck on Shu Shu's body, Myer’s clenched fists were getting tighter and tighter.

"Myer, don't be sad. I think the crown prince definitely has you in his heart. He should have no beast bead and feels that he doesn’t deserve you, so he’d marry that Shu Shu!" Myer's friend said.

What Myer’s friends said, some netizens also mentioned, and many people also thought of the same thing. Nevertheless, Myer only smiled bitterly.

He had eyes and could clearly see that when Edgar looked at Shu Shu, his eyes were full of deep love.

Regardless of whether Edgar had the beast bead or not, he sincerely liked that sub-beastman.

Thinking so, Myer continued to watch the live broadcast.

Ian was also watching the live broadcast as he rushed to the Imperial Plaza. His face was not so good, and his heart was as rocky as turbulent seas and rivers.

The people who knew about Edgar not having the beast bead were very, very few. How the hell did that Donald know? Why would he do a live broadcast to publicize this matter?

Like those people who had framed Edgar before, did he want to ruin Edgar’s reputation? And ruin the Imperial family’s reputation?

Ian gritted his teeth and felt very painful when he thought of his son receiving all kinds of criticism after the news about him having no beast bead spread. At the same time, he also thought of some other things.

Donald was recommended by Jonathan, and the matter of Edgar having no beast bead, he only told Jonathan . . . .

Did what happened this time also have something to do with Jonathan? But . . . why would Jonathan do such things?

The aircraft Ian rode in stopped on the balcony of the Imperial Plaza Restaurant. At this moment, the doctor was finally done giving Shu Shu a detailed examination.

"Although my instrument can't inspect the child's specific circumstances because the energy on the child’s body is too strong, but the crown princess is pregnant. This is beyond doubt." The doctor's expression was very firm. "The crown princess’ movements just now were too violent and injured the fetus’ vital energy, so he must take a good rest now."

"This is impossible! It’s obviously a tumor in my stomach!" Shu Shu absolutely didn’t believe it. Having been a male mouse for so many years, how was it possible that he suddenly became pregnant?

"Crown princess! Although I’m not a specialized obstetrician, but my partner has given birth to seven children. When His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince was in the empress' stomach, I also looked after him. In no way will I be mistaken." The doctor promptly stated. He had been occupied with rushing over here and had not spared some time to watch the live broadcast, so he did not know that Donald had talked about Edgar not having the beast bead. As a result, he was very suspicious now. "You’re pregnant. Why are you not willing to admit it?"

When the doctor came up with this question, Shu Shu was still out of sorts, but everyone on the star network exploded.

Yeah, pregnancy was a good thing, ah. Why was the crown princess not willing to admit it?

This doctor was very famous, and his diagnosis would not be wrong. Furthermore, now was the best occasion to clarify the crown prince’s matter . . . . So, why did the crown princess still insist on saying that he was not pregnant?

"It’s unlikely that the child in the crown princess’ belly isn’t the crown prince’s, right?"

"The crown prince's beast bead is gone, yet the crown princess . . . . Could it be that he ate someone else's beast bead?"

"The crown princess' belly is so big. The child should’ve been conceived five or six months ago. Could it be that the child is really unrelated to the crown prince?"

. . . . . .

There were more and more comments like this on the star network. At this moment, Edgar was staring at the doctor with a strange expression. "Doctor Coleman, Shu Shu is really pregnant?"

"Yes, definitely! Although I can't see the situation inside the egg because the eggshell is too hard, but isn't that an egg? And the surrounding is the womb." Dr. Coleman took out the photo for Edgar to see that the crown princess was one hundred percent pregnant.

Shu Shu’s stomach hurt very much, but with how special the current situation was, he also moved close to Edgar hurriedly so they could see the situation inside his stomach together.

He did not know whether it was because he had exhausted his spiritual power or what, but this time, the machine captured the situation inside his stomach clearly. That indeed looked like an egg, seeing that beastmen and sub-beastmen were all born from eggs.

"How can I lay an egg!" Disbelief showed across Shu Shu’s whole face. Even if he was really going to give birth, hamster didn’t lay eggs, ah!

Edgar also thought that it was impossible. Shu Shu was a beastman; how could he get pregnant?

But . . . it really looked like an egg . . . . And previously, he also felt very, very close to it . . . .

Could it be that this was really not a tumor but an egg?

Edgar was already knocked senseless and totally couldn’t come to himself.

The live broadcast viewers who saw His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s expression all sympathized with him.

It seemed that this child was really not His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s, otherwise His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince would not show such an incredulous expression . . . .

"Before, I wanted to say that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is really unkind and dishonest for still wanting to marry a sub-beastman while not having the beast bead. But now . . . I think he’s very pitiful!"

"I feel sorry for His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince."

"What the hell is going on with the crown princess?! Even if the child isn’t His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s, isn’t it very mean of the crown princess to say that it’s a tumor and he’s going to have an operation to remove it?"

"Damn it, he actually deceived His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince!”

. . . . . .

The netizens already started denouncing Shu Shu. Ian came in from the outside at this moment.

Ian watched the entire live broadcast from start to finish and also knew that the live broadcast was still running now . . . . He wanted to smash all those webcams, but the current situation . . . .

Edgar was believed to have no beast bead, while Shu Shu was believed to have an extramarital affair . . . . The situation could no longer be worse. This time, he had better think carefully about how to solve these matters well!

Besides, he always felt that Shu Shu was not that kind of person who would get pregnant while being unmarried so as to marry his own son. In this case . . . .

After Ian went in, he immediately turn towards Shu Shu. "Shu Shu, is Edgar’s beast bead with you or not?"

Shu Shu had already been confused and disoriented by the matter of his pregnancy, so when Ian suddenly questioned him now, his face was unsightly, and he was immediately panic-stricken. "I didn't mean to lose it!"

Ian would ask that question because he remembered what Edgar had told him before; that he was seriously injured when he fell to Gass planet, and there was only Shu Shu in that forest. It made him think whether there was a possibility that Shu Shu had actually picked up Edgar’s beast bead.

As a result . . . Shu Shu said that he had lost Edgar's beast bead? So the beast bead was really lost?

Ian heard this answer and frowned deeply. Then Shu Shu spoke again, "I really didn't mean it. The beast bead suddenly disappeared. No matter how I looked for it, I couldn't find it."

Shu Shu regretted it very much now. Why did he lose the beast bead? What exactly was the purpose of this beast bead, ah?

The beast bead . . . suddenly disappeared? Ian suddenly had a bold conjecture. "You said that a tumor grew in your body. Did it grow after you lost the beast bead?"

Shu Shu nodded and then shook his head. "Not at the beginning. It only grew after a few days.”

“. . .” Ian was silent for a moment and asked again, “Then, was it after you had a relationship with Edgar that the tumor . . . the tumor . . . became bigger?”

When Ian spoke, his intonation was rather strange, and after he finished speaking, he kept watching Shu Shu closely.

Shu Shu nodded again. "Yeah, it's getting bigger."

"He he he." Ian looked at Shu Shu's clueless and innocent eyes and felt a lump in his throat. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

All the people watching the live broadcast on the star network were also dumbfounded. What was this progress? The Imperial family wanted to make them believe this joke about the crown princess still not realizing that he was pregnant with the crown prince’s child and even took the child to be a tumor?

Unbelievable!

Was the crown princess an idiot? He didn't know that he was pregnant?

Moreover, if the crown princess was really pregnant with the crown prince’s child, why did the crown prince sport such a strange expression?

"This way of whitewashing is too idiotic."

"It’s totally impossible for the crown princess to not realize that he’s eaten the beast bead, right?

“The crown princess doesn’t know. Could it be possible that the crown prince also doesn’t know what the meaning of the beast bead disappearing after he gave it to a sub-beastman?"

. . . . . .

Edgar . . . he really didn't know either.

He thought about the dialogue between Ian and Shu Shu back and forth several times and finally couldn't help but say, "Is Shu Shu really pregnant?"

"You don't know whether Shu Shu’s pregnant or not? Didn’t you say that your beast bead had been lost by you? Why now it became Shu Shu who has lost it?" Ian glared at his own child, furious.

"Shu Shu lost the beast bead, I . . ." Edgar suddenly hugged Shu Shu and then sent his spiritual power into Shu Shu's body.

After the tumor in Shu Shu's stomach got spiritual power as a supplement, it immediately stopped making trouble, and Shu Shu's stomach stopped hurting as well. At the same time, Edgar also clearly felt the beautiful feeling brought by the blood connection.

The tumor in Shu Shu's stomach had a deep connection with him!

No, that was not a tumor. That should be a child!

Shu Shu ate his beast bead, and that beast bead took root inside Shu Shu's body. Later, they got married, and then Shu Shu had his child.

Although this child grew especially fast, and although this child had absorbed a lot of spiritual power that made the instrument always unable to examine him, but it was indeed a child.

Hugging Shu Shu, Edgar started to babble incoherently, "I have a child! I have a child! Shu Shu, I have a child!"

"How can there be a child?" Shu Shu still looked blank .

"Ha ha ha, we have a child!" Edgar hugged Shu Shu tight and kissed him on the lips. The image that the crown prince had always showed was a man who was steady, cold, and detached, but now he was all happy and crazy.

The netizens, however, were struck dumb.

What was this all about? Shouldn’t the crown prince angrily divorce the crown princess? Could it be that . . . the child in the crown princess’ belly was indeed His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s?

If the crown princess’ child was truly His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s, why would they regard the child as a tumor and even plan to have an operation to remove it?!

On the star network, a bunch of ". . ." re-emerged and filled the live broadcast comment section. At present, everyone finally had no more strength to ridicule.

They slowed down for a while to recuperate, and then they saw on the live broadcast that the crown prince was still hugging the crown princess and laughing heartily, completely without image.

"This man . . . is really His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince whom I worship?"

"So, the crown princess’ child is indeed His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s?"

"How could they regard the child as a tumor?!"

"What the hell is this?!"

. . . . . .

The people on the star network were driven mad, and Ian was also just like them.

"Edgar, would you stop!" Ian suddenly said.

Edgar stopped and finally blotted out the ecstasy in his heart with reason. The whole person started to become normal.

"You tell me, what exactly is going on?!" Ian said.

"I gave the beast bead to Shu Shu. Shu Shu said that he lost it, so I thought my beast bead was gone . . . . I . . ." Edgar quickly thought of an excuse in response to Ian and then hurriedly turned towards Shu Shu. "Shu Shu, how exactly did you lose the beast bead?" His mood had been fluctuating then, so he hadn't asked about this . . . .

"I thought your beast bead was very fun to play with. I kept it in my mouth to play with, and suddenly, it was gone. I ate a lot of things so as to draw it out, but I didn't succeed . . ." Shu Shu was still very much at a loss. How did the tumor become a child? However, being told like this by these people, he actually began to feel that this thing in his belly was indeed a child . . . .

In this place, it should be that eating a bead could make you get pregnant, right?

Edgar really wanted to laugh, but, thinking that he had regarded the child as a tumor, the laughter did not come out, and his expression as he stifled his laughter was extremely strange. This time, Ian knocked his head with a fist. "Shu Shu's living environment was very isolated. He had no Internet and also no parents to teach him, so he doesn't understand many things. How was your physiology class? The child’s already this big, and you actually still don't know?"

Ian thought that his son really needed a spanking! Going as far as to regard his grandson as a tumor!

Edgar felt very wronged. His physiology class was very good; he remembered all the knowledge clearly. He would make such an unexpected mistake totally because Shu Shu was a beastman!

How would he know that beastmen could also get pregnant?

No, Shu Shu could not be considered as a beastman. He was different than the beastmen of the Beastman Empire. It was estimated that he could only get pregnant because of this . . . .

Shu Shu’s situation could not be known by others, so Edgar could only be burdened by the black mark of "not good in physiology class".

On the star network:

“. . .”

“. . .”

“. . .”

After some moments when everyone was speechless, someone finally asked, "Do you think this is true? The crown prince and the crown princess really didn't know about the pregnancy?"

“How to explain it otherwise? If it’s fake, the crown prince will never recognize it."

"After the child is born, his gene will be recorded. The Imperial family will never recognize a child who has no blood relationship with them."

"Ha ha ha ha ha, the crown prince actually regarded the child as a tumor. Don’t you think it’s very funny?”

Everyone suddenly went silent.

Before . . . the crown prince and the crown princess indeed insisted that it was a tumor . . . .

Edgar and the others completely had no time to pay attention to the things on the star network.

At this moment, Doctor Coleman couldn't help but say, "His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince! The crown princess has stirred the fetus’ vital energy. How could you still carry him to jump around? He needs to rest, you know? He needs to rest!"

Edgar immediately didn't dare to move. Shu Shu, on the contrary, waved his hand. "I'm fine. I’m very good now. I’m just very hungry."

"Are you really all right?" Edgar watched Shu Shu anxiously and then called Coleman again. "Doctor Coleman, you quickly give Shu Shu an examination again!"

Coleman, without the slightest hesitation, started the detection device once again. As a result . . . there was nothing at all on the detection device.

"Look, you can't see anything at all now . . . . Is that really a child?" Shu Shu couldn't help but ask.

"Of course!" Coleman was full of excitement. "In legend, children with powerful bloodline can block detection. This must be a very, very powerful child!"

Hearing Coleman's words, Edgar felt extremely proud. But after nodding proudly, he couldn't help but start to worry—Shu Shu always believed that he was a beastman; wouldn't he be unable to accept that he was pregnant with a child?

He wanted to have a proper chat with Shu Shu, but there were too many people here, which was clearly unsuitable for any conversation . . . . Edgar abruptly carried Shu Shu in his arms and then ran outside.

The crown prince just ran away like this?

The people brought by Edgar were somewhat at a loss and stood rooted to the spot. Synthia, who had completely become a transparent person in the later period, looked even more embarrassed and at a complete loss. Ian, however, had already recovered. "You take care of things here and restore the room to its original state!"

Ian had just finished speaking, and everyone started to get busy. Those micro-robots were finally found and destroyed. At first, the beastmen who were summoned by Edgar to deal with this matter didn’t even realize that these micro-robots were the ones that did the live broadcast and spread everything out.

The live broadcast on the star network was cut short just like that, but everyone was still indescribably excited and talking incessantly about the previous matters.

"Ha ha ha ha, it's so funny. After the beast bead was eaten by the sub-beastman, the crown prince actually thought that he had no beast bead."

"That was the best live broadcast I’ve ever seen in this lifetime. In such a short time, the plot reversed countless times, ah!"

"My god, some people actually took a child to be a tumor!"

"A tumor! Ha ha ha ha. This gag can make me laugh for a year. No, no way will I only laugh for a year! I’m going to laugh for a lifetime and let my son and grandson continue laughing!”

“I’ve been laughing until my stomach hurts! I recorded the whole live broadcast, and now I’m watching the replay. When Donald said that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince had no beast bead, that guilty expression of the crown princess . . . was because he thought he had lost His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s beast bead, right?"

"I’ve seen countless jokes of the Imperial family, but this one is definitely the best laugh!"

"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince’s child is unlucky, being regarded as a tumor by their parents, ah. Ha ha ha ha."

. . . . . .

Countless people were talking about it on the Internet. The live broadcast of the crown prince over here could be said to have attracted the attention of a great number of people. Many people had stopped their works and began to pay attention to this matter, to the extent that no one discovered that in a certain area on the capital star, a fight suddenly started and then quickly ended.

Chris personally led some men to arrest the behind-the-scenes mastermind, which was his sub-beastman younger brother, Jonathan. However, Jonathan had been prepared since long ago, so that he only caught some of Jonathan's subordinates in the end.

As for Jonathan himself . . . .

Taking advantage of countless people whose attention was being attracted by the live broadcast, a private spaceship suddenly took off and rushed into the universe. Its speed was very, very fast that Chris failed to catch up with it.

Chris contacted the nearby Imperial Fleet without the slightest hesitation and ordered the men of the Imperial Fleet to go and capture that private spaceship. The men of the Imperial Fleet promptly accepted the order, but they did not dare to guarantee that they would really be able to overtake that private spaceship.

The universe was too big, so if a private spaceship that was good at concealing itself wanted to hide deliberately, it was really very difficult for them to catch it.

"List Jonathan as wanted! Lock up Calvin and the Duke of Mund!" Chris stated without the slightest hesitation.

Jonathan escaped, but probably because this incident happened so suddenly and because they also put the emphasis on monitoring the Duke of Mund, so the Duke of Mund was arrested, and Calvin was handcuffed without any resistance just now.

As Chris watched his men handle matters, he began to frown. When he first investigated the incident of Edgar being harmed, he looked into the Duke of Mund. At that time, he still thought that even if the Duke of Mund had a hand in it, Jonathan, who grew up with him from childhood and had a deep relationship with him, should not know about it. As a result . . . the one who set about doing harm to Edgar and ruining the reputation of the Imperial family was actually not the Duke of Mund but Jonathan. Why the hell would Jonathan do this?

His parents had adopted Jonathan, raised him well, and never let him down. Why would Jonathan betray the Imperial family?

Chris was both puzzled and bitter but still methodically issued numerous orders. After doing all this, he then asked the man at his side, "How is Edgar over there?"

Donald starting to work on Shu Shu at that point in time should be Jonathan diverting Chris’ attention . . . and Jonathan made the right move. That Donald did shift many people’s line of sight and also drew Edgar away, so that they failed to capture Jonathan.

"Your Imperial Majesty, the crown princess is pregnant." Chris’ subordinate said. There had been a lot of things going on there, but he thought that their imperial majesty should want to hear this news the most.

Shu Shu was pregnant? Chris suddenly found out that his attention had been diverted and he could no longer pursue and attack Jonathan wholeheartedly.

Edgar, carrying Shu Shu, rode the aircraft back to the Imperial palace. Then he brought Shu Shu into their bedroom straightaway and very carefully put Shu Shu on the bed.

"Shu Shu, how do you feel?" Edgar asked again.

"I’m hungry . . ." Shu Shu stared at Edgar pathetically. He was so hungry, ah . . . .

There were too many things before, so Shu Shu forgot to get something to eat from his food pouches. Now that he was back in a familiar place, he immediately took out all kinds of food and began to gnaw on them.

Edgar was rather speechless seeing this scene. He promptly ordered 006 to go prepare some food and then turned toward Shu Shu again. "Shu Shu, you’re pregnant with my child. What are you going to do?"

Edgar watched Shu Shu anxiously for fear that Shu Shu would declare that he did not want the child.

"That's the best then! If it's truly a child, I don't need to fear that this tumor is a malignant tumor!" Shu Shu replied at once. "I don't need to have an operation, which is great! I heard it’s very painful to give birth to a child, but now that the science and technology are developed, being in labor should probably be painless, right?"

"It should be." Edgar automatically nodded and then managed to react, looking at Shu Shu with great joy. "Shu Shu, will you give birth to the child?"

"Of course." Shu Shu nodded. Since he was pregnant, he certainly had to give birth to the child. He liked children very much . . . .

Wait a minute . . . although he liked children, but he liked hamster babies. Now that he was pregnant with Edgar’s child, he would not give birth to a snake, would he?

Thinking of being pregnant with a snake in his stomach, Shu Shu felt terrible all over.
