Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 142 Commander Gu is hers, no one else can touch her (Extra for 350 monthly tickets)
But what she heard was the laughter of his little charming wife.
Gu Jue slightly raised his gaze, and within his eyes black as deep pools, a touch of confusion danced.
Su Wan talked about Su Man’s plan to marry Su Yun.
Although he didn’t manage to hold his little wife, listening to her speak in such a light-hearted tone lifted Commander Gu Jue’s spirits as well.
Gu Jue, "And here I thought you were so happy because you won the contest."
"Winning the contest would certainly make me happy. But watching Su Yun and Su Man fight like dogs is also very enjoyable to me. However, I do kind of hope they get married. Although, the chances are slim."
Just as Su Wan finished speaking, she suddenly noticed that Gu Jue’s hair was a bit damp.
"Ajue, have you taken a shower?"
"..." Gu Jue didn’t hesitate for a second, "The Mermaid Planet’s delegation also visited Empire University earlier, and I ran into them in the main control room, but I didn’t let her touch me."
Su Wan drew close, and her round nose twitched, mimicking the actions of a cat.
Thankfully, she only smelled the fresh scent of shower gel.
She didn’t feel like throwing up this time.
Su Wan, "Is that fish still at Empire University now?"
"Today is the day the etiquette officers are accompanying them on a tour of the First Star District. I’m not sure if they are still at Empire University."
"..."
Gu Jue sensed his little charming wife’s discontent.
He directly instructed White Tiger, "White Tiger, connect me to Zilan’s communicator."
White Tiger, "Yes!"
Gu Zilan thought his uncle had an urgent matter and immediately answered the call.
Gu Zilan, "Uncle, what’s up?"
Gu Jue, "Tell Lan Ruochen to send his sister back."
Gu Zilan, "Why’s that?"
Gu Jue, "I dislike it."
After saying that, he cut off the conversation with Gu Zilan.
When he looked up again, he saw his little charming wife looking at him with an amazed expression.
Commander Gu Jue, with his lips slightly moving under her gaze, said, "Wanwan, what’s wrong?"
"Actually, it didn’t have to be done right away. But just now, your domineering commander vibe, I really love it!"
Su Wan admitted that she was jealous and really disliked that mermaid.
When a woman needs to act up, she should. She has to throw a little tantrum, get a little jealous, and such.
Showing too much understanding at times like this might invite more advances from the other party!
Ever since Su Wan traveled back from Ancient Earth, she had reminded herself of one thing: to cherish everything and everyone she had.
Commander Gu Jue was hers; no one could lay a finger on him!
Of course, Gu Jue’s approach was simply perfect!
Commander Gu Jue, sometimes painfully straightforward, but of course, that was towards others.
Towards her, he was just indescribably wonderful!
Suddenly, Su Wan launched herself at him, wrapping her arms around Commander Gu Jue’s neck, "How can you be so good, I’m falling more and more in love with you, what should I do!"
After acting up, and the man has shown his stance, it was time to be coquettish.
That’s how you make a man love you even more, care for you even more.
And the next time you act up, the effect will be even better!
Sure enough, when Commander Gu Jue heard the word "love" from her, his gaze paused for a moment, and the next second, his furry tail emerged, wrapping tightly around her waist.
"How much do you love me?"
"Just like how you love me during your Manic-Depressive Period, I love you that much."
Commander Gu Jue, without a word, kissed her immediately.
...

Inside the Imperial Palace, having finished his official duties, Emperor Gu Zilan sat in his chair and was a bit worried.
The aroma of the small coffee cup in his hand had lost its appeal.
He propped his chin with one hand, pondering deeply, but he couldn’t understand.
Why had his uncle suddenly taken a dislike to the mermaid princess, Lan Rui?
Queen Luo Manya, holding a tray of fruits she’d cut herself, walked over, her water-blue skirt sweeping over the red carpet.
"Zilan, what’s wrong? Have you encountered a vexing issue?"
Gu Zilan then talked about the situation.
Luo Manya gave a gentle smile, "Isn’t that simple? Your little aunt participated in the Mecha competition. Your uncle went to see her compete today, and it so happened that Lan Rui was also there. I guess she must have done something to upset your uncle."
"She’s just a young girl, what could she have possibly done to make my uncle unhappy?"
Luo Manya looked at her husband’s clueless expression and shook her head helplessly, "I noticed it when we met yesterday; Princess Lan Rui is quite infatuated with your uncle."
"But my uncle is already married. Everyone on the Mermaid Planet knows this..."
Gu Zilan’s intelligence finally clicked in.
He remembered the marriage customs of the Mermaid Planet!
Lan Rui had her eyes on his uncle, but his uncle’s heart belonged to Su Wan alone, naturally causing him to dislike Lan Rui!
Having realized this, Gu Zilan still had something he didn’t understand.
He said, "I guess Su Wan probably doesn’t know about the existence of mermaid Lan Rui yet, right? There’s no need for my uncle to be so scrupulously clean, is there?"
After all, the Mermaid Princess hadn’t directly expressed anything, huh.
Luo Manya gave her husband a gentle yet exasperated glance.
"Have you forgotten? Last night, when you wanted to come into the bedroom to sleep, I kicked you out and told you to take a couple more showers, remember?"
"You said at the time that I had a scent on me..."
Luo Manya nodded.
The Mermaid Clan releases pheromones around the person they like.
Even Gu Zilan had brought some of that scent home with him; how much more so for Lan Rui, whose target was his uncle?
Even if Su Wan had never met Lan Rui, she would definitely have smelled that sweet scent on Gu Jue’s body, right?
Gu Zilan, belatedly aware, excitedly grasped Luo Manya’s hand, "Manya, I’m lucky you’re so understanding and didn’t misunderstand me!"
Luo Manya looked at him tenderly, "Because I know, standing next to such an outstanding man like your uncle, as long as that Mermaid Princess isn’t blind, she would surely fancy your uncle, not you."
Gu Zilan: "..."
Why did he feel that he should not ponder too deeply on his wife’s words, as the deeper he thought, the more aggravated he would become?!
These weren’t important issues; what was crucial was to send that fish back where she came from!
Thus, when Lan Ruochen and his sister Lan Rui arrived at their resting place, they received a communication from Gu Zilan.
Lan Ruochen took the opportunity to speak to Gu Zilan about the marriage alliance with their Imperial Family.
Lan Ruochen: "My sister Xiaorui has always been fond of the Federal Empire. To continue the friendly relations between our two star districts, we have decided that Xiaorui should marry into the Gu Family."
He said this with a probing intent.
Because Lan Ruochen could feel that the great Commander of the Gu Family was exceedingly indifferent to Xiaorui.
But perhaps, the Commander was just as indifferent to any woman?
On the other end of the communication, Gu Zilan was silent for a few seconds.
Gu Zilan: "Oh, does your sister have someone she fancies? There are indeed some young and promising, unmarried men in the Gu Family’s collateral branches."
Lan Ruochen looked at his sister’s hopeful gaze, "Xiaorui, she admires Commander Gu greatly."
Gu Zilan: "My uncle is already married!"
Lan Ruochen: "We are aware of this. Although Xiaorui is pampered, she’s very sensible. In the future, she will get along well with the Commander’s wife."
