Chapter 206 Finally, they met.
After a long and arduous journey, Cheng Chu finally arrived alive on planet AF9 and met Mikel.
It was already past four in the morning on planet AF9, and the spaceship was parked in an open space in front of a small house.
Cheng Chu leaned weakly against Mikel, inhaling his pleasant scent, and finally felt alive again. Because of Mikel's pregnancy, he didn't dare lean his full weight on him, only resting his head against him lightly.
The two female soldiers handed over the fragile S-class male insect, who was half-dead from being seasick, to Mikel and then took their leave that very night.
"General Mikel, Your Excellency Cheng Chu, our mission is complete, so we'll be heading back now."
After helping the listless male insect to its feet, Mikel solemnly thanked them: "Thank you both for bringing my master here. You've worked hard."
"General Mikel, you're too kind. It's all the Marshal's orders," the two female soldiers waved their hands politely.
Elijah.
Mikel ignored their politeness and didn't bother with polite formalities; he simply let Elijah handle the situation.
Elijah stepped forward to negotiate and presented the two prepared gifts.
Mikel then turned and headed towards the rented house with the male insect.
Knowing that the male insects were coming, Mikel and Elijah had already chosen this small house with a yard and paid a month's rent in advance.
"My lord, planet AF9 is too remote. This is the best house we can rent. It's a bit simple, but please bear with it."
The surrounding lights were very bright, almost blinding. The temperature on Planet AF9 was a bit low in the early morning, and a cool breeze made Cheng Chu feel dizzy and lightheaded, and uncomfortable all over.
He didn't think it was anything shabby; he'd stayed in worse houses before. He felt like he was covered in the sour smell of vomit, and all he wanted to do was take a shower and then sleep soundly with Mikel in his arms.
On the spaceship, he kept falling asleep and waking up; he couldn't sleep well at all.
Cheng Chu said weakly, disgusted with himself, "Wife, I...I want to take a shower, I smell so bad."
After a 20-hour journey, he felt as if he had absorbed the stench of his own vomit.
"It doesn't smell bad." Mikel disagreed with the male insect's words. He raised his hand to tidy the male insect's slightly long bangs, looked at the male insect's haggard face, and said, "However, if the male master wants to take a bath, he can take a bath. I will go and prepare it for you right away."
Cheng Chu nodded and said, "Yes, I need to take a shower."
Cheng Chu was too exhausted, so he let Mikel do whatever he wanted.
Although it was the early hours of the morning, it was still pitch black outside, and the residents of this place were still asleep.
Mikel quickly pulled Cheng Chu into a hot shower, and Cheng Chu collapsed onto the unfamiliar bed, drifting off to sleep.
"Master, are you hungry?" Mikel sat down on the edge of the bed, casually pulling up a corner of the blanket, then raised his right hand to stroke the male insect's face. He asked softly, "Would you like to drink a nutrient solution before going to sleep?"
"Hmm..." Cheng Chu said listlessly, her eyes half-open, as she held Mikel's hand. "No, I don't want to eat anything."
Seeing that the male insect was clearly uncomfortable, Mikel didn't bring it up again. Seeing the male insect's eyes barely open as it forced a stare at him, Mikel lowered his voice: "Master, go to sleep if you're tired."
"You need to sleep too." Cheng Chu moved to the other side of the bed, lifted the blanket, and patted the empty space.
Mikel's eyes crinkled slightly, and his tone was clearly amused as he said, "Okay."
Mikel lay down in the empty space and covered herself and the male insect with the blanket. The next second, the male insect snuggled into Mikel's arms. Mikel raised her hand to hug the male insect who had willingly thrown himself into her embrace, and gently patted the male insect's back with one hand.
"Sweet dreams, Master." Mikel kissed the male insect's forehead, quietly watching his sleeping face, and soon closed his eyes as well.
…………
The next day, Elijah returned after lunch, but his general did not come out of the master bedroom.
Thinking about reporting the results of the investigation, I also need to wait outside.
In the bedroom, Mikel had already woken up, but the male insect nestled in his arms was still not awake, whimpering and refusing to get up.
Even before the male insect wakes up, his stomach rumbles and rumbles like an alarm clock, more punctual than his biological clock.
Mikel patted his rumbling belly and joked, "My lord, your belly is calling you to wake up."
"Hehe..." Cheng Chu hugged Mikel's waist, closed his eyes, buried his face in Mikel's neck and laughed. His voice was muffled: "It wasn't calling me, it was hungry on its own, it has nothing to do with me."
Mikel stroked the male insect's hair at the back of his head and said softly, "Alright, alright~, I was hungry. Master, it's noon, I remember now."
The male insect not only didn't eat anything during the twenty hours on the road, but also vomited several times. After that, it slept for almost eight hours, so it must have been hungry.
We can't let him sleep any longer; it's time for him to get up and eat something.
"Huh? It's noon?" Hearing this, Cheng Chu suddenly looked up at the window. Seeing that it was already bright outside, he excitedly asked, "Then, honey, you haven't had breakfast either?"
Mikel carefully supported her stomach and sat up as well, saying, "I've already slept, so it's okay if I skip breakfast."
Upon hearing that Mikel had missed breakfast and hadn't eaten lunch, Cheng Chuyi felt as if the sky had fallen. He immediately got out of bed and stopped lazing around in bed.
"No, no." Cheng Chu helped Mikel up, her voice tinged with urgency. "Let's go eat something now, don't go hungry."
It was ten minutes later when the person and the insect sat down at the dining table.
Mikel swallowed a mouthful of food, looked at the male insect, and asked, "Master, are you still feeling unwell?"
"I don't feel bad anymore." Cheng Chu spat out the empty nutrient solution packet, and with a great appetite, dragged over the fruit plate next to him, picked up a piece with a fork, and put it in his mouth.
Not only was he no longer suffering from spacesickness, but he even felt a bit hungry.
However, this only manifested as a strong craving for some non-sweet fruits. The insectoids' sweets were something Cheng Chu couldn't enjoy.
He continued, "I only felt uncomfortable while on the spaceship. I'll take a nap after I get off, and I won't feel uncomfortable anymore. You don't need to worry."
Cheng Chu never expected that he would never escape the curse of motion sickness and spaceship sickness in his lifetime.
I really envy those people who never get carsick!
"Hmm." Seeing that the male insect had indeed recovered, Mikel was much relieved.
This was the first time Mikel had ever seen an insect so severely affected by spaceship motion sickness, so he couldn't help but feel worried. He even considered taking the male insect to the hospital for a checkup if he was really in pain.
Fortunately, the male insect felt much better after taking a nap.
