Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 130 Taking Advantage to Pull the Delicate Wife into His Embrace (Reward Extra)
Su Wan didn’t try to overextend herself, and since there was no need to sign up, she naturally didn’t do so for the time being.
She needed to learn much more before that.
Even though she had already touched a real Mecha, she hadn’t yet begun systematic training.
The academic workload of the Command Department was heavier than her previous medical studies, and there were also fixed physical training sessions every day.
After the afternoon classes, Su Wan and Lin Yu went together to the military academy’s specialized medical room.
They needed to measure various body data, including spiritual power, for the military academy student records.
Su Wan saw Mu Qingyu again.
Mu Qingyu was the deputy director of the Federation Empire Medical Center and happened to be visiting Empire University for business that day.
Upon seeing Su Wan, he even smiled and greeted her.
Su Wan looked at Mu Qingyu, who seemed to be in his thirties—by that age, he should probably be married.
As for their Mu Family, she didn’t know the specifics.
But Su Wan had heard that those ancient families had many rules.
Not wanting her mother to be harmed in any way, she thought it over and decided to ask Ajue about it later.
While Lin Yu was being tested first, Su Wan secretly sent a message to Gu Jue.
Su Wan: Ajue, what time are you coming home tonight?
When Gu Jue received her message, he was discussing recent Star Thief movements with Gu Zilan.
He paused, then changed the topic, "Oh right, I took the core of the Vermilion Bird to upgrade Xiaowan’s AI brain." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Gu Zilan didn’t react immediately and was stunned for a few seconds.
Then, he nodded.
The AI brains of members of the Imperial Family were generally of a higher grade, but suddenly, Gu Zilan remembered that Queen Luo Manya’s AI brain ranking wasn’t even in the top ten...
He clenched his fist in frustration.
He had been outdone by his young uncle again!
On the other end, Gu Jue wrapped up the conversation with his nephew in no time and returned to his office, picked up his military coat, and walked out.
Once he boarded the aircraft, White Tiger asked, "Master, should I set the destination to our home address?"
"Empire University."
White Tiger’s electronic eyes lit up instantly, "Oh right, right, it’s still early, the missus hasn’t finished school yet, let’s go pick up the missus!"
In reality, before getting married, his master hardly ever left the military headquarters this early.
But ever since getting married... the master didn’t even like to work overtime!
Such progress, indeed.
Meanwhile, Su Wan had not received a reply from Gu Jue and thought he might be busy.
She didn’t think too much of it.
Being the Federation’s top Commander, Gu Jue had to spend half his time dealing with official matters at the military headquarters.
The other half, he had to lead warships out to clear out the highly destructive Insect Clan and drive away the Star Thieves that continuously tried to disrupt the peace and stability of the Federal Empire.
Therefore, Su Wan wasn’t angry when Gu Jue didn’t reply to her messages.
She just felt sorry for how hard he worked.
On Su Wan’s end, her testing was nearly complete; everything was fine except her spiritual power score was rather astounding.
"For a pure human, it’s extremely rare to have an S-class spiritual power."
For instance, Lin Yu, being a pure human with A-class spiritual power, was already considered very high.
But Su Wan was S-class, and what’s more, she had the potential for growth!
Mu Qingyu said, "It’s possible your child has had some effect on you, but your own spiritual power is also very strong."
Su Wan nodded, then looked rather sadly at the string of data.
Her complexion was not so good.
Mu Qingyu didn’t understand, "What are you worried about?"
Lin Yu also looked at her with concern.
Su Wan said sadly, "My waist has indeed gotten thicker."
The others: "..."
You’ve been pregnant for over four months, almost five, and except for a slight thickening of the waist, there have been no other changes!
The child has never troubled you!
This must be the happiest pregnant mother in the entire Federation Empire!
Fortunately, Su Wan’s melancholy came quickly, and left even more so.
Especially after receiving a message from Gu Jue saying he was already at the school gate.
Su Wan instantly cast aside all thoughts of waist pain and spiritual power!
She cheerfully said goodbye to everyone and then bolted towards the school’s entrance.
Lin Yu watched her retreating figure, a touch of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
Although he felt a bit of a heartache.
But seeing Commander Gu treat Xiaowan so well, even coming to pick her up from school, Lin Yu genuinely felt happy for her.
Su Wan dashed to the gate and from afar, she could see the man standing there.
The man was tall, his military uniform immaculate, with every button on the collar fastidiously secured, his handsome profile slowly turning her way.
Upon seeing his little wife running towards him, the cool demeanor of the Commander slowly warmed with tenderness.
Su Wan arrived at his side, her voice revealing her excitement, "How did you come here?"
Gu Jue: "Well, I just finished some official business, and I was passing by. So I thought I’d pick you up and we’d go home together."
"Oh, right, Ajue, I have something to tell you."
Su Wan took his large hand, boarded the flyer, and then hurriedly closed the cabin door.
She also shut out the onlooking crowd that had gathered around.
The stern Commander didn’t say a word, letting his little wife pull him along.
Somewhat obedient in a way that’s out of character.
In his deep, dark eyes, there was a faint hint of anticipation.
Once sure that the cabin door was closed and that only the two of them were on the flyer,
Su Wan said, "Ajue, do you know about the Mu Family? If my mom really ends up with Director Mu, would the Mu Family oppose it?"
So that was the question.
Commander Gu’s expression remained unchanged, "In the Federation Empire, the Mu Family is a very ancient lineage, traceable all the way back to Ancient Earth. Their family places great importance on offspring."
Su Wan: "..."
The flyer slowly headed towards the Commander’s mansion.
Gu Jue sat down and effortlessly pulled his delicate wife into his arms.
Pulled into Gu Jue’s embrace, sitting on his lap, Su Wan’s body suddenly tensed.
What on Earth was this all about?
Su Wan pursed her lips, "Ajue, there’s a chair next to us, I can sit by myself."
"Continue talking about what you were saying before."
"...Alright, since the Mu Family cares so much about offspring, wouldn’t they oppose my mom being with Director Mu? After all, my mom has been married before."
At forty-something, she might still be able to have children.
But there’s also the possibility that she won’t have more.
After all, there are too many variables involved.
And if, just if, Director Mu is the problem...
The austere Commander had one hand around his little wife’s waist and the other pinching her fingers.
One by one, as if playing with a toy.
He said, "Ouyang Qing and Mu Qingyu are husband and wife, but they have been separated for three years."
Su Wan was shocked, "They’re married? Then why are they separated?"
"Because after many years of marriage, Ouyang Qing never had children. The Mu Family was persistent, so Ouyang Qing proposed divorce to Mu Qingyu, but he did not agree."
Su Wan fell silent.
She actually liked Ouyang Qing very much, who appeared stern but was actually very tender.
In Su Wan’s eyes, Ouyang Qing was a wonderful and perfect elder sister.
Yet even for someone as admirable as Ouyang Qing, the Mu Family had so many criticisms...
If the Mu Family is so conservative with so many demands, no matter whether Mrs. Lin can bear children or not, she may never be happy in the future.
Nobody likes to have their life constantly dictated by others!
