Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 575: My Sister Ran Away with a Bug?

Thus, Gu Yan’s pale ears visibly turned red.

But it was a very familiar scent, so she didn’t open her eyes, even though Bai Li could feel her entire body tensing up.

Bai Li leaned close to Gu Yan’s ear and whispered, "Xiaoyan, if I were in my true form, I probably wouldn’t be able to stay with you."

As the supreme leader of the Insectoids, it was simply impossible for him to be with Xiaoyan day and night.

Only by changing into a different shell and name, taking on the identity of an exchange student, could he have close contact with Xiaoyan.

Gu Yan actually understood this, but he was too close, and his every word carried warmth, making her ears hot and itchy.

"Oh, Brother Little Mushroom, you, you can let go, it’s a bit hot."

Bai Li’s eyes darkened as he let go and said softly, "Later, in front of other people, just call me Bai Li."

Once he ended the hug, the heat finally dissipated, and Gu Yan took two deep breaths, quickly regaining her composure.

She nodded and said, "Sure, Brother Little Mushroom. I’ve always wondered what your name was. Is Bai Li your real name?"

"My name is rather long, but Bai Li is part of my signature, so I took such an alias."

"Oh, oh."

Because it was the same person, Gu Yan quickly calmed down, but shortly afterward, both her and Bai Li’s light-brains rang simultaneously.

Gu Yan looked down and said, "It’s my elder brother, I wonder what he wants. I’ll answer it and see."

Bai Li glanced at the name on his own light-brain, which was from some other Insectoid exchange students; he declined the call and nodded, "Alright, I’ll look around in your dormitory."

After saying this, he walked towards the room in Gu Yan’s dormitory.

Meanwhile, Gu Yan answered the call and asked curiously, "Little brother, what do you need me for?"

"I heard that an Insectoid deceived you?"

"..."

"Hey, no, where are you now? Are you really with an Insectoid?"

Gu Yan looked up to see Bai Li, who was opening the fridge and taking out food; she said helplessly, "He’s an exchange student who wanted to have a look around our school and hoped I could be his guide. Who has been talking nonsense to you?"

After listening, Gu Yu sighed with relief, "Oh, so you are currently showing him around the campus? You don’t need to accompany him, wait a bit, and I’ll find someone to replace you."

"No need, it’s just a campus tour."

"Then, where are you now in the tour?"

Gu Yan hesitated, she couldn’t very well say that they were touring her dorm room, right? Cough cough, her little brother would definitely come charging over, and he might even breathe fire!

Brother Little Mushroom, it’s uncertain whether he’s fireproof... cough cough.

Gu Yan quickly said, "I’ve already finished showing him around, we’ve separated now."

"Then where are you now?"

"I’m back in my dorm."

"Okay, good, I’ll come find you, and we can go to the party tonight together."

"..."

After cutting off the communication, Gu Yan said to Bai Li with a helpless expression, "Brother Little Mushroom, my little brother is coming over soon. I, I told him we’ve already separated."

Bai Li frowned slightly, not liking Gu Yan’s words.

It was that sentence, we’ve already separated.

Even though he knew that wasn’t what Gu Yan meant.

But Bai Li knew what Gu Yan was worried about, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I’m going back to the dorm now, add me as a brain-computer friend, and we’ll contact each other next time."

"Are you going to attend the banquet tonight? It’s especially to welcome you insectoids."

"I will attend, and when the time comes, may I invite you to dance?"

"Of course."

A touch of tenderness flashed through Bai Li’s normally indifferent eyes, as he once again stretched out his arms and gently hugged Gu Yan.

Gu Yan felt her ears burning hot again, but she still remembered to take some snacks from the fridge, packed them up, "These are made by my mom, my favorite, and I remember you liked them too, take them back to the dorm to eat."

Sensing that the young girl kept him in her heart, Bai Li nodded tenderly, "Alright."

"Then, see you tonight."

"Mhm."

Even after Bai Li had left for a long time, Gu Yan still sat on the sofa with her cheeks feeling fiercely hot. It was so strange, she had hugged Brother Little Mushroom like this before and didn’t feel this way.

If she couldn’t understand what was happening, then she might as well just stop thinking about it!

About a few minutes later, Gu Yu rushed over in a hurry. Upon entering, he checked every room and even remembered to open the fridge door.

Gu Yan said in disbelief, "Little brother, what are you looking for?"

"Nothing, nothing at all." Gu Yu certainly wouldn’t tell his sister that he was really worried the insectoid hadn’t left and was still lingering in her dorm.

Even though he knew his sister would never be the kind to bring strangers into her dorm easily.

But what if that was a shameless insectoid?

Thankfully, there was none.

After resting for a while, the siblings went out together, boarded a flying vehicle, and went to get ready for the evening’s event.

Gu Yu was still hung up on the insectoid incident, but after observing his sister, he noticed no change in her. He figured she would have been very excited if she had just met someone new.

Seeing that his sister didn’t have any special emotions, Gu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Wan, who had finished her styling, came to pick up her son and daughter. Looking at her stunningly beautiful children, Su Wan tenderly said, "In the blink of an eye, you’ve both grown up so much."

She still remembered when the children hatched, they were so tiny.

"Alright, tonight’s banquet actually has some diplomatic nature to it, so if you find it uninteresting, you can slip away after the first dance is over."

The necessary etiquette had to be observed, but Su Wan didn’t want to be too strict with her children, especially since having Xiaochen attend alone was already giving the insectoids considerable face.

Gu Yu quickly nodded, as he had no interest in any banquet and planned to just show his face and leave.

With that time, he’d rather be doing an experiment.

However, Gu Yan was thinking about her promise to Bai Li, and she nodded obediently, held up her skirt, and followed her mother and brother inside.

At the same time, she stealthily sent a message to Bai Li’s brain-computer.

Gu Yan: Brother Little Mushroom, I’m about to enter the venue. Once the opening remarks are over, in about ten minutes, the first dance will start.

For some reason, even though she had known Brother Little Mushroom for a very long time, Gu Yan had never danced with him.

She was inexplicably looking forward to it.

Meanwhile, Bai Li, who had just received the message, was slightly lifting his head to look at Xi Le in front of him.

Xi Le said respectfully, "Sir, I heard that you went alone to find Commander Gu’s daughter, Gu Yan. Are you planning to...?"

Bai Li said indifferently, "Is this something you should be concerned with?"
