......

You can't reason with someone who has cavities.

The little emperor was rolling around in bed in pain from a toothache.

Gao Tian patted his back in vain, watching him roll around on the bed. He felt sorry for him but didn't have any other good ideas, so he could only discuss with him: "Should we pull this tooth out?"

The teeth of the higher female insects are extremely strong. A dentist's drill would definitely not be able to drill through the little emperor's teeth. However, the female insects are incredibly strong and have the support of technology. If they really wanted to pull them out, they could definitely do so.

"I won't pull it out!" The little emperor suddenly sat up, stopped crying out in pain, and yelled at him.

His shark teeth are so cool, he absolutely cannot accept becoming a toothless man.

If Bishen finds out about this, it will be an utter disgrace, even more unbearable than the toothache itself!

"What should we do then?" Gao Tian asked helplessly.

Seeing that Gao Tian was also helpless, Lan's momentum collapsed as the toothache struck again.

He slumped back down, curling up on his side in a wronged manner, burying his burning left cheek in the pillow, keeping strangers and acquaintances at bay: "You're a big bad guy, I'll never forgive you again..."

"I'm so innocent! What has this to do with me!" Gao Tian reached out and pulled at him.

Lan ignored his explanations and gave him only a cold, indifferent back view.

Gao Tian was at his wit's end, so he could only pick him up like he was carrying a baby, letting him lie on his shoulder like a corpse, and walk around a bit to coax him. "Then let's call the dentist and see if we can get him filled?"

Lan pressed the side of her face that was hurting from her toothache against his shoulder, then slapped his shoulder hard: "Hurry up and yell!"

"You hit me again." Gao Tian slapped his butt. "I'll forgive you because your tooth hurts today, but next time you hit me, it won't be so easy!"

"Pah!" Lan slapped him again.

......

In no time, the news of the imperial physician spread throughout the entire palace medical department.

Soon, everyone in the medical department who knew dentistry, whether human or insect, was summoned.

In the temporary treatment area outside the palace, human doctors in white coats and female insectoids in traditional insectoid medical robes looked at each other in bewilderment.

In the past, female worms mainly ate nutrient solutions, and tooth decay was rarely a problem; if it did occur, the solution was usually extraction.

It's more common for male insects to have cavities, but male insects' teeth are easy to deal with; ordinary materials and tools will suffice.

Suddenly, the Queen Mother of the Insects got a cavity... Everyone was at a loss.

Well... Her Majesty the Queen is considered the highest-ranking female insectoid. Their bodies are tougher than starships, not to mention their teeth.

What material can be drilled through the teeth of a higher female insect?

The imperial physicians conducted a preliminary diagnosis of His Majesty the Queen.

Her Majesty the Queen's tooth decay is quite severe, having damaged the dentin, and requires root canal treatment.

But first, we have to grind away the corroded and necrotic parts.

The imperial physicians tentatively took out the hardest drill bit known at the time and tried it.

"Sizzle—"

A sharp, piercing friction sound was accompanied by a few sparks!

Everyone held their breath.

A few seconds later, the imperial physician removed the drill.

Everyone looked over eagerly—

There wasn't even a scratch on the shark's teeth.

It was as if the teeth-grinding sound and sparks from just now were merely an illusion for everyone.

Wait, what was that spark...?

They then turned their attention to the instruments.

The drill bit bent.

There's no way out, there's really no way out. This is the hardness of teeth, enough to even pierce through starship armor.

The medical equipment was completely ineffective, and the doctors stood there like useless husbands, heads bowed, afraid to speak. They were truly at their wits' end.

"Why are you all looking down?! Raise your heads!" The little emperor slammed his fist on the table.

The imperial physicians trembled in fright and hesitantly raised their heads, but when they met the Queen's murderous gaze, they immediately buried their heads back down.

They really wanted to think of a solution, but they just couldn't come up with one!

Her Majesty the Queen suffered from both toothache and liver pain from being infuriated by the quail-like imperial physician.

"And you too!" The Queen of Insects slammed her hand on the table again, pointing behind the imperial physicians.

The young crown prince peeked out from behind a royal physician, blinking his big black eyes at Lan.

"Didn't we arrange for the captain of the guard to take you to school? Why haven't you gone yet?!"

Gao Baobao peeked out and asked, "Daddy, you're not feeling well and can't go to work today, can I skip school?"

"Can't!"

Gao Tian scooped Hao Hao up and carried him outside, saying, "Go quickly, my little darling, don't make your dad angry. Study hard and improve every day, or I'll make you study for three years of college entrance exams and five years of mock exams every day from now on."

Gao Baobao was taken away sullenly: "Dad, you're bad."
