Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 613: The Uncomfortable Manic-Depressive Period
Gu Qingyu, although he is now the head of the entire medical center, couldn’t overlook the matter when he heard that Gu Chen’s health had issues, both publicly and privately. The next day he rushed over, bringing a medical team to specifically examine Gu Chen’s health.
There was a hint of shadow under Gu Chen’s eyes, he hadn’t rested well all night, but his condition was still manageable now.
The main reason was that he had inherited Count Gu’s strong willpower.
Seeing Gu Qingyu bringing the medical team, Gu Yan and Gu Yu were stunned for a moment, both immediately went to ask Su Wan.
"Mom, what’s wrong with Big Brother?"
"Xiaochen is feeling a bit unwell, but you don’t need to worry," Su Wan paused slightly, then turned her head to look at her younger son, "Xiaoyu, have you felt unwell recently?"
Gu Yu shook his head blankly, "No, I’m doing quite well. Is Big Brother just tired from handling political affairs? You don’t need to worry about me, I am studying medicine, after all."
Xiaoyu is also a Beastman and has passed the age of eighteen, which meant that his first Manic-Depressive Period should also be starting by calculation.
Su Wan looked at her younger son’s condition, which indeed had no issues, and then instructed her children to eat and then hurry to pack up and go to school.
After getting on the flyer, Gu Yan was still a bit worried, "Big Brother’s health has always been good, could it be that someone tried to assassinate him again and he got injured?"
As the most powerful Beastman of the next generation of the Gu Family and the chosen successor to the throne from long ago.
Gu Chen had indeed faced numerous assassination attempts since childhood.
Although he always turned the danger into safety, sometimes he would get injured. Fortunately, high-level Beastmen have strong healing abilities, in addition to Landis Star possessing the most excellent medical technology.
So this time, did Big Brother encounter another assassination attempt?
Gu Yu said with a firm look, "I need to study hard so that I can be the first to aid you all if anyone has any health issues in the future."
On one hand, Gu Yu was interested in medicine, and on the other hand, he wanted to protect his family.
As the king of Landis Star, Big Brother could protect the family from a macro perspective; then he would work hard to master medical skills and protect the family from this specific aspect.
Gu Yan thought about it and felt like she was the least useful member of the family...
With this thought in mind, Gu Yan felt a bit down after arriving at school, but what surprised her even more was that Vivian seemed to be even more off today.
The two of them hadn’t spoken a word after saying hello when they first met.
"Vivian, are you feeling unwell?" Gu Yan extended her concern.
Vivian, looking at her friend’s worry, actually didn’t want to distance herself from Gu Yan because she knew Gu Yan was a very good person.
And she was the best friend she had made since coming to Empire University.
But her mother’s side...
Vivian chuckled dryly, "I’m fine, I just didn’t rest well last night."
"You should rest well in the afternoon when there are no classes," Gu Yan replied.
"Yeah."
Gu Yan initially planned to ask Vivian to join her in going to the library to borrow books in the afternoon, but seeing Vivian’s low spirits and lack of rest, Gu Yan went to the library to do research alone.
She received a message from Bai Li asking what she was doing, and Gu Yan replied she was at the library.
Soon, Bai Li arrived.
The two picked books that interested them and then found a desk by the window, quietly reading together.
Bai Li liked the feeling of being near Gu Yan very much.
This liking had never changed.
Meanwhile, at Commander Gu’s residence, Gu Qingyu had just completed a full examination of Gu Chen, and the results were already out.
"If Xiaochen’s manic-depressive period is not managed properly, it could provoke a rampage of his spiritual power. This is not an isolated case; it has happened to many Beastmen over the past few years."
All things evolve and change, so clearly, Beastmen are no exception.
Gu Qingyu’s expression was somewhat grave, "Because Xiaochen’s Beast Transformation Level is so high, his condition will be more intense than others. Currently, the usual exclusive medicine for high-level Beast Transformation is ineffective. I will formulate a more suitable exclusive medicine for Xiaochen as soon as possible. Regardless, if he’s not planning on getting married soon, he’ll just have to grit his teeth and get through this year’s manic-depressive period."
Adult Beastmen have it once a year before marriage, but the time varies with each occurrence.
At this moment, Su Wan felt relieved that, fortunately, Xiaochen did not take after Ajue; if it were once a month... the child would probably suffer a lot.
Gu Qingyu said goodbye to Su Wan and left with the medical team; he needed to make the emergency exclusive medicine for Gu Chen as soon as possible.
Gu Chen’s state had been off for a few days, so he was not going to the Imperial Palace temporarily. Urgent matters could now be handled online.
Su Wan looked at her son, who now had wolf ears due to the manic-depressive period, and his fluffy tail was sweeping back and forth.
Gu Chen’s complexion was quite pale, but he still managed to smile at Su Wan in a relaxed way, "Mom, don’t worry, it’s nothing. I’ll get through it if I just endure. However, for the next few days, I can only work from home."
Su Wan nodded, "Gu Qingyu has taken his team to make an emergency exclusive medicine for you. It should be ready in two days at the latest. However, it’s also possible that your manic-depressive period will end in these two days."
"Okay."
Su Wan knew her son wasn’t feeling well but was trying to appear relaxed because he was concerned about worrying her.
She put down the bowl of soup she was holding, "Xiaochen, do you have a girl you like? Or what type of girl do you like? Don’t worry, I won’t arrange a match for you. Because of your condition, it would be a better choice to get married."
As Gu Chen held the soup spoon, the image of a pair of rabbit ears flashed through his mind. Then he calmly said, "Mom, I don’t want to get married right now, and I don’t have anyone I want to marry."
"Alright then, but don’t push yourself too hard. You never take time off for yourself. It’s alright to rest for a while when you’re not feeling well."
"Okay, Mom."
Su Wan knew that her eldest son was the most considerate among her children; even when he was very young, he was willing to give a lot for his family, not to mention that Xiaochen was already an adult now.
Su Wan had duties at the military department, so she didn’t stay at home, went to the military department, finished her official business, and then went to have lunch with her husband Gu Jue in his rest room.
Su Wan had little appetite.
Gu Jue placed a piece of tenderloin meat into his wife’s bowl, "Still worried about Xiaochen?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Su Wan: "The child’s condition is worrisome. Among all the children, Xiaochen is the most sensible, which also makes me feel a bit guilty."
"Okay, Wanwan, Xiaochen chose this path for himself, you don’t need to overthink it. And indeed, he really is more suited for this position than Zilan. As for the manic-depressive period, I’m thinking, maybe his destined match is nearing."
Su Wan was startled, "What do you mean?"
