Fertility Value 0? My Fluffy Husbands Are All Top-Tier Bigshots

Chapter 357: Chapter 357: Asking the Monarch for Help

He Hanshi blamed himself for everything that had happened.

Shi Lan couldn’t bear to see him so sad and self-reproaching. Her voice was clear as she explained, word by word, "No, it’s not your fault. They want my blood for research, and it seems they have other goals too. Even if Donald hadn’t caught me this time, they would have found another opportunity sooner or later."

"I can’t have you guys watching over me every single moment. Instead of assigning blame, what’s more important is to catch the mastermind behind this and rescue the other captured females."

"Actually, in a way, it’s a good thing I was captured. There are many other females inside who need help. I saw that two-thirds of the females there are pregnant, and their pregnancies aren’t going well. It’s like some kind of method was used on them. There’s also an Insect Clan space, densely packed with Insect Clan figures."

Unlike her, those females couldn’t transform into their spirit bodies, and their tracking chips were gone.

If she hadn’t been taken there, who knows how long it would have taken for that place to be discovered.

The five men were shocked to hear this. ’Pregnant females? An Insect Clan space?’

This organization truly had many secrets. To think such a dangerous and terrifying group was hidden right on the Capital Star.

They couldn’t help but ask for more details, and Shi Lan told them concisely.

But what surprised her was that Bai Rao had also been captured. Then she remembered something—in the novel, there was a female kidnapping organization, and the female lead was captured by it in the later stages. It was Ye Yan who rescued her and the other females.

Connecting that to the current kidnapping, it seemed Bai Rao hadn’t been able to escape her fate from the book after all.

’So this time, will Ye Yan be the one to save her again?’

’And how did he find out about this organization in the first place?’

Wait a minute. Shi Lan suddenly froze. "Ye Ming, you once said that Donald works for Ye Yan, right?"

Ye Ming had been lost in thought ever since he heard Shi Lan say someone wanted her blood. He only snapped out of it, still a bit dazed, when Shi Lan called his name.

"Yes, that’s what the investigation showed."

Shi Lan was incredulous. "Could Ye Yan be involved with that organization too? Because Donald works there, guarding the other captured females."

Now that the relationship between Donald and Ye Yan was brought up, the others recalled that connection as well.

Ye Ming still felt something was off. "Ye Yan doesn’t seem to know about any of this. His wife, Bai Rao, was also captured, and he has no idea how to find her."

On the way back to the Capital Star, he noticed Ye Yan’s Teleportation Spaceship was following his own. Later, when he needed to go to his research lab, he found a way to shake him off.

"But, Donald is in there..."

Shi Lan felt the mystery behind all this was only getting deeper, and He Hanshi and the other four men felt the same.

However, now wasn’t the time to think about that. She felt the most urgent task was to figure out how to rescue those people.

And then there was Bai Rao. She had only just been captured, so she probably hadn’t suffered those terrible things yet. Even though they’d had some minor friction in the past, after working together as colleagues for a while, there was no deep-seated grudge between them. She didn’t want to see her get hurt.

Shi Lan told them her thoughts. Ye Ming said decisively, "First, we’re taking you for a check-up. After your examination, I’ll go find my father and have him dispatch the army to search for the organization’s exit you mentioned."

The others might need rescuing, but in the eyes of these men, Shi Lan was still the number one priority.

Not only did Ye Ming feel this way, but the other four also strongly agreed with the suggestion to have her examined first.

Besides, the Hovercar had already stopped at the entrance of Zhenxin Hospital.

Shi Lan didn’t delay any further. Ye Ming ended the communication and immediately took her inside for an examination.

The hospital director had been very worried about her recently and had even had her husband help with the search. Seeing Shi Lan return safe and sound, she was greatly relieved.

She personally took Shi Lan for a basic female examination, had her spend some time in a Treatment Pod, and even performed a female psychological evaluation and a prenatal check-up. After about an hour, it was finally confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Shi Lan.

When she was weighed, she even discovered she had gained two or three pounds.

Shi Lan suspected it was because of the pregnancy. ’It’s definitely not because I’ve been eating too well while locked up.’

After confirming Shi Lan was okay, Ye Ming took her to see his father that same night.

On the way, he suddenly asked, "Lanlan, was it Dr. Ai who drew your blood?"

Shi Lan’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at him in surprise. "How did you know?"

She hadn’t had a chance to tell Ye Ming yet. She knew he was a sentimental person; Dr. Ai had worked with him for so long, and finding out he had betrayed him and done something like this would surely hurt him deeply.

Shi Lan had been trying to figure out how to phrase it, but she never expected Ye Ming to guess it first.

"So it’s true."

Ye Ming murmured softly, his eyes dimming slightly as he explained, "Because Dr. Ai has asked me for your blood several times before. And tonight, I saw some things that made me suspect he was involved in this organization."

Now, Shi Lan’s words had just confirmed his suspicions.

Shi Lan sensed his sadness and hugged him comfortingly. "It’s okay. This will all pass. Besides, maybe Dr. Ai has his reasons."

"No matter what his reasons are, he participated in an organization that kidnaps females. That’s a crime. I will catch him and send him where he belongs."

Depending on the severity of the act, kidnapping a female could be punishable by death.

Although Ye Ming was devastated by Dr. Ai’s betrayal, the fact that he went against a female’s will and harmed his own wife meant Ye Ming would no longer show him any mercy.

Shi Lan was speechless. After all, Ye Ming was right. Having reasons didn’t excuse a crime.

The two of them soon arrived at the palace.

After such an ordeal, it was already past four in the morning. The nights on the Capital Star were long, and the sky was still pitch-black. Human and mechanical soldiers patrolled the palace grounds vigilantly. The palace itself was brightly lit, dispelling the heavy darkness of the night.

Shi Lan and Ye Ming proceeded unimpeded to the main hall, where the Monarch resided. There were extra patrol soldiers, and anyone entering or exiting the main hall had to be inspected.

After they passed the inspection, Shi Lan suddenly hesitated. "It’s so late. The Monarch should be asleep, right?"

Ye Ming said, "It doesn’t matter. This is an emergency. As the Monarch, my father should handle it with urgency. Even if he’s sleeping, there’s no fault in waking him."

Shi Lan thought that made sense. She turned her head to look at Ye Ming, about to nod, but her gaze was unconsciously drawn to his eyes, which appeared a deeper, darker green with his back to the light.

’I feel like I’ve seen those eyes somewhere before.’

But they were a little different. When Ye Ming looked at her, his eyes were full of gentle affection, a comforting thoughtfulness and acceptance. The other pair of eyes had a teasing quality, as if sizing up a plaything. They concealed an ugly darkness filled with greedy self-interest, bottomless and like an endless, terrifying abyss.
