54. The Hamster is Taken Liberties With

Shu Shu seemed to have always emphasized that he was a beastman, and therefore they could not be together. But he had never said that he did not like him . . . . Edgar was still pondering over it as the aircraft arrived at the door of the house where he lived.

As a housekeeper robot, 006 simultaneously opened the door and turned on all the lights in the house the moment the aircraft stopped. Then it stood in the doorway, waiting for instructions.

Edgar did not instruct it to do anything though. Instead, he quickly went to Shu Shu's room while carrying Shu Shu in his arms.

Shu Shu's bright red face and the faint aroma of wine carried by his exhalation made Edgar unable to control himself from wanting to kiss Shu Shu's lips once more. But, recalling the previous situation where Shu Shu suddenly woke up, he felt that he should not take advantage of Shu Shu's impairment again.

After putting Shu Shu on the bed, Edgar planned to leave the house and go have another look at the banquet, but unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, he was yanked back by Shu Shu. Shu Shu, whose eyes were still closed just now, surprisingly opened his eyes again and was regarding him with a very serious look. "Disciple, you know that I'm your master, don't you?"

Master and disciple seemed to mean teacher and student? Edgar really liked the way Shu Shu looked when he said in deadly earnest that he was his teacher. Looking at Shu Shu's eyes, Edgar immediately answered, "I know."

Shu Shu was very satisfied with this answer and once again said, "You're my disciple, so you can't drive me away, you know?"

"I won't drive you away." Edgar felt a bit funny.

"Even if you marry a sub-beastman in the future, you still can't drive me away." Shu Shu frowned slightly.

"I won't marry a sub-beastman." Edgar promised.

"Then you won't have children." Shu Shu's brow wrinkled even more tightly. As a hamster, reproduction was his instinct. If it were not for his determination to become a human and to not produce offspring whose life span was only a couple of years and that were unable to develop intelligence, he might've already bred several hundred litters of pups.

"Having no child is no big deal." Watching Shu Shu's expression, Edgar's heart beat a little faster.

Previously, when Shu Shu said that he was a beastman, he thought that Shu Shu didn't like him at all. But, listening to what Shu Shu said now . . . perhaps Shu Shu wasn't really without feeling for him?

"Edgar, you're really great!" Shu Shu suddenly hugged Edgar, pushing his head onto Edgar's chest and nuzzling it.

Shu Shu smelled especially good, and his body was also soft. Edgar, who originally wanted to leave, immediately didn't want to leave.

Right at this moment, the wrist watch on his hand alerted him to an incoming private message.

Taking out his communication device, Edgar saw a message from Calvin.

"Edgar, you actually left while carrying Shu Shu in your arms like that. Do you know how many sub-beastmen's hearts you've wounded?" Calvin sent a text message, but with an emoji at the end, which was a sub-beastman actor with face full of complaints.

Edgar hadn't returned the message yet, and Calvin's second message already came up. "Right, when are you coming back? Many people are here today. Let's chat and reminisce together?"

Edgar also wanted to have a chat with Calvin. However, after trying to push Shu Shu away and only resulting in Shu Shu being wrapped round him even tighter, he promptly abandoned this idea.

Was reminiscing with friends comparable to being intimate with a sub-beastman?

"I am busy. You all chat." Edgar sent out six words and then decisively turned off his communication device.

Shu Shu was already asleep, knocked out, and Edgar watched him, not in the least sleepy.

He stared at the man in his arms for a long time and finally drew the man into his embrace.

His beloved was in his embrace. Edgar originally thought he would not be able to sleep, but, smelling Shu Shu's scent, he unconsciously entered the land of dreams.

The next day at dawn, Edgar's wrist watch vibrated lightly, waking him up straight away. And the first thing he did after he woke up was to touch the man in his embrace. However, he only touched air.

Heart startled, Edgar looked in the direction of his chest but found that it was empty . . . . Shu Shu woke up and then ran away?

Edgar thought of this almost immediately, but he quickly denied it. His alertness was very strong; if Shu Shu really woke up and then ran away, it was impossible for him to not know.
