Lu Yuan gripped Rhein's hand tightly, staring intently at the two insect eggs without blinking.

At the same time, he inexplicably began to exert all his strength, as if trying to transfer his power to the two insect eggs and help them hatch sooner.

Time passed second by second, and as time went by, more and more cracks appeared on the two insect eggs, one, two, three, four... until finally, the surface of both insect eggs was cracked into a spider web pattern.

Then, with a snap, a crack appeared on the upper part of the left side of the insect egg. The crack then grew larger and larger, and Lu Yuan could clearly feel a small force inside the egg desperately widening the crack.

The insect eggs on the right are at roughly the same progress.

An hour later, as the crack continued to widen, there was another crack, and the shell of the left-hand insect egg finally split in two, revealing a round, chubby little head with half of the eggshell still on its head.

The newly hatched worm shook its head from side to side, observed its surroundings for a while, and finally fixed its gaze on Lu Yuan and Rhine.

After a pause, the little bug grinned and revealed an adorable smile.

Lu Yuan felt his heart melting.

Then the egg on the right went through the same process, and the equally cute little bug that came out of the egg on the right gave Lu Yuan and Rhine a sweet smile.

Faced with these two absolutely adorable little ones, Lu Yuan couldn't help but cover his heart with his hands, feeling like he was being overwhelmed by their cuteness.

He shook Rhine's hand vigorously and said excitedly.

"Rhine, the bug cub, the bug cub is out."

Although Rhine didn't seem as excited as Lu Yuan, he also looked at the two little insects and gave them a gentle smile.

After the two little insects finally poked their heads out, they stopped moving and stayed put.

After resting for a few minutes, the two little insects started moving again, using their little arms and legs to smash their eggshells to pieces.

Then, the two little bugs plopped down in the middle of a pile of broken eggshells and started putting the shells into their mouths.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan did not stop it.

After bringing the insect eggs back, Lu Yuan also consulted a lot of relevant information and learned that the first thing the insect larvae do after hatching is to eat their own eggshells.

Because the eggshell contains many nutrients that are beneficial to the insect larvae, eating the eggshell is essential for the larvae to grow and develop healthily in the future.

Records show that if the larvae fail to eat the eggshell, their physical condition and recovery ability will be significantly worse than other larvae when they grow up.

Although with the development of technology, there are now some treatment methods that can help insect larvae that failed to eat the eggshell to replenish the nutrients they need.

But the effect is definitely not as good as the original eggshell.

Lu Yuan had been standing in front of the incubator for a long time and felt a little tired, so he moved two chairs over and sat down with Rhine to continue watching the baby insects eat their eggshells.

To be honest, the two little insects were munching away with gusto, as if they were eating some kind of delicacy, not an eggshell. Lu Yuan even got a little hungry just watching them.

While watching the live stream of the insect cubs eating, Lu Yuan was also observing the appearance of the two little insect cubs.

Rhine's previous action of showing the insect eggs Lu Yuan's photos had no effect. Neither of the two little insects looked exactly like Lu Yuan; their facial features were clearly a combination of the best features of both Lu Yuan and Rhine.

The little bug that hatched from the egg on the left, let's call him the older brother for now. He has black hair and purple eyes, and his features are generally soft.

The younger brother, who emerged from the egg on the right, has silver hair and black eyes, and his features are more defined and deep-set.

Although the two little insects had just hatched from their eggs, Lu Yuan could already tell a bit about their personalities.

The older brother seemed to be more lively and reckless. While eating the eggshells, he would occasionally grin foolishly at Lu Yuan and Rhein.

He also often waves his little arms and legs, kicking the eggshells he wants to eat everywhere.

The younger brother was noticeably quieter and more attentive. Although he would occasionally glance at Lu Yuan and Rhine, he didn't make as many big movements as his older brother.

Before eating the eggshells, the younger brother first gathered all the eggshells together before starting to eat them one small bite at a time.

Another hour passed, and the two insect chicks ate their eggshells completely, leaving not a single crumb.

They drank all the egg liquid inside, and after eating and drinking everything, the two little bugs even let out a satisfied burp.

After the insect chicks finished their first meal, it was finally time for their father, Lu Yuan, to make his appearance.

Lu Yuan walked to the wardrobe and took out two small outfits that had been prepared in advance.

Speaking of little clothes, there's another interesting story.

While Lu Yuan was buying all sorts of things for the little bugs, he naturally had to buy them clothes.

However, when it comes to the clothes that their insect cubs will wear, Lu Yuan transforms into a picky male insect customer that the insects hate, dissatisfied with no clothing from any store.

They either complain that other people's clothes are not nice-looking, or that the fabric is not soft enough. Even if the clothes are nice-looking and the fabric is soft, they worry that the raw materials may contain harmful substances.

Unable to bear Lu Yuan's erratic behavior any longer, Rhine suggested that they simply acquire a clothing factory to make clothes specifically for their insect offspring.

The clothes are all made from all-natural materials, and these materials are grown on farms owned by their family. Now Lu Yuan can rest assured.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately agreed. The two pieces of clothing that Lu Yuan took out were just produced by the garment factory that his family had recently acquired.

Actually, there's more to this garment factory story.

This garment factory was originally used to make clothes for the insects in the house. Under Lu Yuan's close supervision, all the clothes produced by the factory were of high standard and strict requirements, and both the appearance and the materials were far superior to many brands on the market.

Later, when other nobles learned of this, they also became very interested in the clothes produced by this factory and came to buy them with money.

Rhine saw this as a good opportunity to expand their relationship, so he readily agreed and even gave away quite a few of the cubs' clothes.

Under these circumstances, the clothing factory had no choice but to expand production, eventually developing into one of the top clothing brands in the Zerg Empire and one of the most profitable businesses of the Rothschild family.

Of course, these are all things to be discussed later, and we won't go into them here.
