Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 592: How Is It Such a Coincidence?

It was finally Gu Yan who got tired and fell asleep beside her mother, while Su Wan gently tucked her daughter in and then stood up, saying to Vermilion Bird, "Check the information on the child named Bai Li."

"Yes."

A few minutes later, Vermilion Bird sent over Bai Li’s detailed information, and Su Wan looked at the virtual screen with slightly furrowed brows.

Insectoid?

There seemed to be nothing special about the information, yet for some reason, Su Wan felt she had seen this child somewhere before.

She turned her head to look at her daughter, who was sleeping soundly on the soft bed, and thought for a moment without saying anything.

The next morning, Gu Yan was woken up by her mother early because they had to gather for training.

The little girl hadn’t even opened her eyes, hugging Su Wan she said, "Mom, how many days will you stay here?"

Still such a little girl.

Su Wan replied, "I’ll come to see you train in a bit, then I have to go back to Central City. There’s been an issue at the hotel, I need to go check it out."

"Oh."

"However, I should come back again before your military training ends. Xiaoyan, if there’s anything you want to eat, let Mom know and I’ll bring it to you next time."

"You don’t need to bring anything, just having Mom come is enough."

Gu Yan knew she was already quite fortunate. Vivian and the others wouldn’t be able to see their families for the entire month of military training.

Not only could they not see their families, but their communications were also blocked; they couldn’t even contact their families.

Comparatively, Gu Yan was already very content.

Although she was always pampered and raised in wealth, Gu Yan did not carry the temperamental disposition of those noble young ladies; she was methodical in her actions and particularly easy to get along with.

And since Gu Yan had never lacked for anything since she was young—spaceships, mechas, flyers—she wouldn’t, as a young lady brought up in wealth and pampered, be easily deceived by some worthless men with a few Star Coins, right?

Raising a daughter indeed requires a lot more effort.

Before long, Gu Yan continued her training on the field, still following her own sequence of exercises. Due to Gu Yan’s example, other students started to follow suit.

Some copied Gu Yan’s sequence of exercises directly, but others grasped the essence and reorganized according to their own strengths and weaknesses, still making sure to save shooting practice for last.

Suddenly, the training field was bustling, and every young student was full of energy.

Once Su Wan was sure her daughter was alright, she left the training base reassured. She had not yet landed on the Empire Main Star when she received a message from her mother, Lin Ranyue.

Lin Ranyue: Xiaowan, I’m at the Su Family’s old house, and Su Man actually came over!

Su Wan: I already told her that Grandfather doesn’t want to be disturbed. Why did she still go?

Lin Ranyue: I’m not sure, I just happened to come by and found her here.

Su Wan: Who else is there?

Lin Ranyue: Su Ni.

Su Wan felt a bit helpless; back at the Su Family, the person who treated Su Man the best was Su Zhen, followed by Su Ni, as for Su Yun, he was clever. He was only good to Su Man when it was useful for him.

Su Wan decisively said, "Mom, I’m on my way over now."

Did Su Man think that after so much time had passed, the conflicts of the past could just dissipate into thin air?

Impossible.

After all, there was a life lost between them—a life of Su Zhen!

Su Zhen might not have been a good father or a good husband, and he certainly had many faults and flaws; Su Wan had never thought of whitewashing her father.

But he didn’t deserve to die.

In those years, Du Weiwei, in her eagerness to harm others, did not hesitate to use Su Zhen to kill Su Wan and Lin Ranyue, which shows just how malicious Du Weiwei was!

Su Wan first sent a message to Luo Jina at the military department, saying she wouldn’t be coming back for the time being and that if there were an emergency, she would contact her.

Luo Jina decisively said it was no problem, and Su Wan trusted Luo Jina as well. Besides, if it were a serious matter, she would be notified immediately and Luo Jina would arrive quickly.

After relocating from the Empire main star, the homes of the Su Family members were very close to each other, as well as to the location of the Imperial Palace military department in the Central City.

Su Wan soon arrived at the Su family’s old residence, which was designed in a Chinese style. However, it was not as exaggerated as the Mu Family’s place, which was all about the ancient style. Instead, it looked antique at first glance, but the interior layout was very modernized.

As soon as Su Wan entered, she saw Su Man, her face alight with a smile, telling her daughter Su Yao, "Yaoyao, hurry and thank your great-grandfather."

Su Yao actually felt that her great-grandfather didn’t quite like her, or rather, it seemed that the people in this house didn’t really like them.

But under the pressure of her mother, she obediently walked up to old Mr. Su and said respectfully, "Thank you, great-grandfather."

Though old Mr. Su disliked Su Man, the child was only in her teens and was innocent. Although he kept a stern face, he nodded, "If you like those pastries, eat more of them."

"Okay!"

Su Yao obediently returned to her seat, then nibbled on the pastries in the small dish and drank the sweet fruit juice.

After all, she was still a child.

Lin Ranyue then spoke up, "You won’t be staying too long this time with the Insectoid troop, will you?"

Su Man’s lips twitched.

She was about to make a barbed retort to Lin Ranyue when Su Wan already began to speak.

"Commander Xi Le is very busy; he probably won’t stay long on Landis Star." After Su Wan spoke, she just looked at Su Man with a cool and distant gaze, "Su Man, haven’t you remembered what I told you?"

Su Man pursed her lips and didn’t rush to speak.

However, Su Ni, who had been looking at his light-brain a moment before, heard Su Wan’s words and began to explain, "Xiaowan, here’s the thing, something happened at the restaurant just now, and Xiaoman was the one who resolved it."

"What happened? Why would an outsider be involved in resolving it?"

"It was... the Beastmen and the Insectoids started fighting."

In the restaurant, there were occasional quarrels, people drank a bit too much, or there were small conflicts—this was inevitable.

But whoever it was, no one would make a big scene at the Su Family’s restaurant, and starting a fight was out of the question.

So...

Su Wan smiled faintly, "How is it such a coincidence?"

Su Man’s expression began to stiffen; in truth, she was still somewhat intimidated by Su Wan. She had made inquiries, and it was only after learning that Su Wan was not in the main city that Su Man came.

Who would have thought the other party would arrive so quickly.

As for the other members of the Su Family, apart from Lin Ranyue—oh, she couldn’t be considered part of the Su Family anymore—the rest, in Su Man’s view, were actually quite easy to manipulate.

Not to mention, she indeed had come with good intentions.

But Su Man didn’t dare to confront Su Wan directly, so she stood up and said, "We’ve disturbed you for quite a while, it’s not too good, we should take our leave. Yaoyao, say goodbye to everyone."

Su Yao hadn’t quite had her fill of the lovely pastries; she found that everything at the Su family’s restaurant was delicious, as was all the food related to the Su Family.

She was reluctant to leave.

But not daring to defy her mother, she could only stand up and obediently say, "Great-grandfather goodbye, great-grandmother goodbye, grandmother goodbye, little uncle goodbye..."

Finally, Su Yao turned her head to look at Su Wan.
