Chapter 249 Wanwan Misses Me
Bai Nanxi thought of her brother’s capabilities and finally began to smile slowly.
"Good, if you can help me get this revenge, I will let you directly access the family resources on those extraterrestrial planets," she said.
"Certainly, my sister," he replied.
After ending the communication, Bai Nanxi finally felt somewhat relieved and asked the household robot to pour her a glass of red wine.
Swirling the wine in her glass, Bai Nanxi snorted coldly.
That mask of the Food God, how truly ugly it is!
The more she had adored it before, the more she despised it now that it had become the same sex as her!
Su Wan was unaware that someone harbored such deep loathing for her.
After all, logically speaking, she was more entitled to criticize Miss Bai.
Don’t be infatuated without thinking.
Don’t casually claim fiancés.
According to the information available, the Bai Family behind Miss Bai was also an upper-class noble family of the Empire, just one without real power.
Most of their clan were Charm Beasts, adept at making and spending money, and they loved to enjoy life.
This Miss of the Bai Family was the type who was very fickle in love, easily swayed by new attractions.
Once she set her eye on a man, she would definitely pursue him until she succeeded.
Su Wan suddenly felt relieved that she was a woman; otherwise, being targeted by such a woman would indeed be somewhat troublesome.
She returned home, and before long, she had a visitor.
Seeing her familiar Mecha Teacher, Su Wan was somewhat curious, "Teacher Andrew, may I ask what brings you here?"
"This is something the Commander asked me to deliver to you, I’m not sure what it’s for; just take it for now," he replied.
"Oh, all right," she said.
It appeared that Andrew had other matters to attend to, as he left promptly after setting down the item.
Su Wan looked at the transparent metal case and instantly noticed the mask inside... it was actually quite beautiful, with intricate patterns and a myriad of specialized small designs.
After Vermilion Bird scanned it, it explained to Su Wan, "Master, this mask has many functions, including filtering out toxic gases, radiation protection, concealing appearance, and altering voice."
Su Wan: "That’s so intelligent! I didn’t expect Teacher Andrew to be so skilled!"
Vermilion Bird: "The previous mask of the male master was of this kind, they must all be Andrew’s work."
Su Wan nodded, thinking to herself, that’s why those masks looked so familiar.
When Ajue was wearing a mask in front of everyone, it was one of this kind of masks. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Compared with it, the mask she found temporarily was truly hideous.
Su Wan was itching to try it on, but obviously, since Ajue had Andrew make it especially for him, she was worried it had some important function, so she naturally did not touch it.
However, at that moment, Vermilion Bird suddenly made a curious sound.
Vermilion Bird: "Master, the Star Coins you transferred to Mr. Leng, he has returned them in full."
Su Wan: "I still need to clear things up with him, but is that the reason for your surprise?"
Vermilion Bird: "No, I just... I was previously unable to track Mr. Leng’s signal; this time I tried tracking it and found it to be very far from us," it reported.
Su Wan: "Does that mean Mr. Leng isn’t a person from our Federal Empire? Or perhaps, he’s traveling to the Outer Star Domain?"
Vermilion Bird: "I’m sorry, master, he used a very high-level method of signal isolation, but I will continue tracking."
Su Wan didn’t blame Vermilion Bird for this; in the Universe World, there were many masters.
There was once a hacker master on the Barren Star who cracked the Imperial Palace’s firewall and hacked into the most important treasury of His Majesty Gu Zilan.
However, upon eagerly opening the treasury, expecting to find some rare treasures...
But inside, they only found some letters, photographs, and a video recorder.
The letters were those exchanged between Gu Zilan and Queen Luo Manya during their courtship.
The photographs were either of the young couple together or of solo portraits of Queen Luo Manya.
As for the video, its stars were still the young monarch and his lover.
The hacker who nearly choked on dog food at the time was very speechless and then triggered the alarm system.
And then... was captured by interstellar warriors!
Ahem, what Su Wan meant was that this Mr. Leng seemed to be a big deal, and if he really took a liking to her, it would mean a lot of trouble for Su Wan.
So, Su Wan took the initiative to send a message to Mr. Leng.
It was straightforward and to the point.
Food God: Mr. Leng, although I’m not clear why you returned these Star Coins... I want to say that if you spend so much money on me, my husband won’t be pleased.
Far beyond the light-years, Commander Gu had just finished a battle, or rather, the fight to exterminate the Star Thieves was drawing to a close.
Lucifer wasn’t in his den.
This was a regrettable fact.
However, aside from that, his henchmen would no longer exist after this.
Lucifer must have caught wind of what was coming and abandoned his base, hiding on some unknown planet.
He was always shrewd, but when it came to direct confrontation, he still feared Gu Jue.
Not having personally twisted off Lucifer’s tentacles, Commander Gu was somewhat disappointed, but at least this purge had thoroughly wiped out the main force of the Star Thieves.
It was expected that for the next twenty years, Lucifer would not be able to recover.
White Tiger, watching his master resting, whispered, "Master, the madam has sent a message to Mr. Leng... Would you look at that, do you still want to keep this alter ego of yours?"
If he continued to use it, that would mean digging his own corner.
If he gave it up... then he would have no way to watch his wife’s cooking show without any burden.
A dilemma indeed.
As a high-level artificial intelligence, White Tiger immediately pushed this thorny issue onto his own master.
Gu Jue, looking at the message Su Wan had sent to Mr. Leng, felt the radioactive patterns around his indifferent pupils slowly begin to soften.
"She did this because she loves me."
White Tiger nodded vigorously: "Exactly, exactly."
Commander Gu suddenly cracked a smile, "Wanwan misses me."
Actually, White Tiger didn’t quite understand how his master could concoct the entire process of his wife’s love from that one sentence, or the fact that the other party had returned the Star Coins.
And that it was of such great importance.
But seeing that his master was in a good mood, White Tiger also put his mind at ease and considerately said, "According to the cleanup process, you’ll be able to return to the main star in two days and see the madam."
"Mm."
Before going out to battle, Gu Jue had no attachment to the main star.
Sometimes, when he left, he even forgot about the time, simply wanting to exterminate the Insect Clan and those damned Star Thieves.
But this time... he constantly thought about his delicate wife who made cookies for him.
He even recorded her earnest admonitions and played them over and over again.
Gu Jue placed his hand over his heart: Everything was because a person lived here.
And this person gave him a home.
