Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Do You Want to Divorce Me?

Su Wan quickly came back to her senses and sat properly in her seat.

She looked down at her own black leather boots, her scalp tingling as she placed her hands on her knees and bent them slightly.

Repeating the movement her roommate had made just moments ago.

It’s terrible!

Gu Jue really did attend the opening ceremony!

Because of the First Commander’s appearance, nearly everyone’s attention at the scene was focused on Gu Jue.

The majority of people stared unwaveringly at the Commander, mesmerized by his appearance that could be deemed perfect!

Silver-grey hair tips were pressed under the brim of his hat, his features were exquisitely defined, yet his gaze was very indifferent.

Pure white gloves disappeared into the deep blue sleeves of his military uniform, his black boots reflecting a faint silver sheen.

Handsome, cold, abstinent, powerful.

Gu Jue was already the idol of most of the military academy students, and after removing his mask, his god-like appearance instantly silenced the entire hall!

Even though they had seen the First Commander’s face on the news before, seeing it in person now was still incredibly stunning!

Su Wan could even hear her own heartbeat!

She subconsciously raised her head, only to meet Gu Jue’s sweeping gaze in mid-air.

Su Wan was startled for a moment, but he had already strode over to his seat, which had been arranged in advance by the president.

Although it wasn’t the first time she had seen him, Su Wan still felt that the First Commander before her eyes was a different person from Ajue, who had cried and kissed her that night.

How should she put it? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

The milky Ajue made Su Wan want to hold him in her arms and pamper him, but the aloof Commander on the stage made her legs weak, and a song she had heard on Ancient Earth echoed in her ears.

Conquered by you like this...

Sheng An noticed Su Wan’s abnormal expression and asked with clumsy concern, "Su Wan, what’s wrong with you?"

"Ah, I’m fine." Su Wan snapped out of it and quickly adjusted her thoughts.

Why should she be nervous? With so many people below the stage, Gu Jue definitely didn’t see her, and that eye contact just now... must have been her overthinking!

It was Luo Jina who snorted disdainfully next to her, "What else could it be? She’s just too mesmerized by the First Commander! But I advise you to give up, I heard from my sister that the Commander is already married!"

Su Wan thought to herself, I know that better than you do, sister!

And, speaking from the Commander’s perspective, your sister should even be calling me ’little auntie’...

Su Wan cast a complex look at the proud little peacock Luo Jina, then turned her head away without saying a word.

Afterward, she tried her best to reduce her presence and didn’t dare to look towards the stage again, avoiding any eye contact with Gu Jue... there was a long distance between the two of them, with so many students in between.

Gu Jue couldn’t possibly see her... right?

Most of the time was taken by the president and other guests speaking, especially the president, who talked by himself for well over an hour!

Finally, when it was Gu Jue’s turn, the students around were holding their breath, waiting expectantly for the chairman to speak.

Even Su Wan carefully raised her head and looked towards the chairman’s platform.

Gu Jue began to speak.

"I hope everyone will study hard, work on improving themselves, and aspire to serve the Empire in the future, together conquering the stars and seas!"

All the students became excited and shouted in unison: Conquering the stars and seas!

Amidst the warm applause of the students, Gu Jue and the other guests exited along with the president and the others, while the students remained deeply stirred for a long time.

There were even girls who passed out from the excitement!

Even as they were carried away by classmates, they kept their eyes closed and said, "The Commander is so handsome!"

It’s not frightening for an idol to be handsome, it’s frightening for an idol to be highly capable, very impressive, and also extremely handsome!

Su Wan felt somewhat speechless, wasn’t this a bit exaggerated? How thick was this filter?

The Commander was indeed handsome, but the content of his speech, it was really too sanctimonious.

However, she then thought that if the other party had not noticed her and just left like that, her heart suddenly filled with joy.

Su Wan and Sheng An decided to make a trip to the school library, which also had a Mecha Training Room. Since they were not part of the combat branch and wouldn’t have the chance to pilot one in the future, it was a good opportunity to take a look.

But before they had taken more than a few steps, Su Wan’s light-brain beeped. She opened it and to her surprise, she found a message from Gu Jue!

Gu Jue: "Let’s meet."

Su Wan: "..."

So he did see her after all!

Although she was somewhat daunted by the Commander, Su Wan knew there were certain matters that had to be resolved.

Perhaps, Gu Jue was here to discuss a divorce with her.

The time of powerful figures is precious, which is why he would agree to the president’s request to attend the opening ceremony for the new students and, by the way, get a divorce...

Su Wan apologised to Sheng An, saying she had something to take care of and had to leave first. Then she turned around and followed the directions in the message from Gu Jue to a building on campus.

Inside Empire University, there was even an exclusive resting room for Gu Jue!

Thinking back to the adoration that the teachers and students showed for Gu Jue at today’s opening ceremony, Su Wan suddenly covered her face... Oh, how she wished she could travel back to the night before her wedding and wake up her past self, who had been swayed by appearances!

Of all the people to mess with, why did she have to provoke this big shot!

The door, with its white metallic sheen, emitted a beep as it slowly opened. Once Su Wan entered, the sensor door automatically closed behind her.

As Su Wan heard the door lock with a click, she thought to herself that the Sword of Damocles had finally fallen.

Following the black and white carpeted floor with its geometric patterns, she soon saw the man sitting on the sofa, rubbing his temples.

The man took off his hat, and the collar of his military uniform was undone by one button, revealing his bobbing Adam’s apple.

Lethally sexy!

To make matters worse, Su Wan even remembered the feel of kissing it!

Get a grip! They were getting divorced, what was she thinking about!

Su Wan cleared her throat and said, "Commander Gu, I’m here."

Gu Jue looked up and nodded to her slightly, gesturing her to sit opposite him.

Su Wan tried to remain calm, not to look above Gu Jue’s head... she simply couldn’t forget those fuzzy ears that were especially nice to the touch and very rubbable!

"Madam, would you like something to drink? We have juice, coffee, sweet cocoa, as well as plain water," a housekeeping robot rolled over, but the voice was that of White Tiger.

Those housekeeping robots operated on given instructions and didn’t have their own intelligence, making it very easy for White Tiger to manipulate them.

One of the reasons for White Tiger’s enthusiasm was because it had been a fan of the lady for some time without expecting her to be the streamer it adored!

Being in close contact with an idol, it was naturally excited!

Another, more important reason was that it wanted to show its diligence to its female master.

The master was a straight man and didn’t know how to coax his wife, causing the intelligent brain to worry itself to pieces.

Su Wan remembered White Tiger’s voice, "Just plain water will do, thank you."

"Okay, madam," the robot wheeled to the bar to pour water.

Even so, Su Wan felt somewhat sentimental hearing its title, considering that in a little while, perhaps she wouldn’t be addressed that way anymore.

For quite a while, Gu Jue said nothing. He leaned back, looking very tired.

One hand on his forehead, his long legs slightly bent, he appeared restless.

Su Wan truly felt immense pressure being in the same room as this powerful figure.

Moreover, as every second ticked by, her mind was filled with images of the explosive Manic-Depressive Period Ajue had experienced that night!

Scene by scene, those memories made Su Wan’s ears burn with heat!

She decided to address the issue head-on!

"Commander Gu, are you here to divorce me?"
