Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 624: Are You That Afraid of Him?
Vivian was still very afraid of Gu Chen.
Gu Chen’s Beast Transformation Level was too high, and as a Beastman of the Wolf Clan, his nature was inherently hostile to Vivian.
But objectively speaking, it really was fortunate that Gu Chen happened to pass by, otherwise, Vivian would feel a surge of fear just thinking about it now.
Because at that time, the rampaging Beastman had completely lost his sanity, and his strength was so immense that Vivian didn’t know if she would have been able to survive.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan immediately replied with a smile, "No problem at all, but you don’t have to be so polite."
Vivian: "It’s only appropriate since he saved me."
The Gu Family had the custom of eating breakfast together, or rather, unless there was an especially urgent matter, the members of the Gu Family would always sit down together to eat each meal.
Even though every one of them was very busy.
Vivian greeted Su Wan and Gu Jue first, and then her gaze fell on Gu Chen, who was sitting opposite her. She said softly, "Your Majesty, thank you for saving me."
"Hmm," Gu Chen didn’t lift his head, his eyes half-lowered, lost in thought.
Vivian felt a bit awkward.
On the other hand, Su Wan had been preoccupied with what Gu Qingyu had said about soulmates. Besides, she was quite fond of the young girl Vivian.
Su Wan smiled gently, "Vivian, since you’re Xiaoyan’s good friend, treat this place like your own home; don’t be too formal."
Vivian accepted what Su Wan handed her to eat with sincere trepidation.
How could she dare to treat this place as her own home.
But basic etiquette and manners were still essential, not to mention that Vivian actually liked the Gu Family members quite a lot. Despite their high status and importance, they didn’t put on airs and were particularly friendly.
She finally understood that only such a family could have raised someone as good as Gu Yan.
Seeing Vivian relax, Gu Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, always feeling that her friend was very nervous whenever she came over to her house.
However... her big brother’s behavior just now seemed a bit off.
Gu Yan thoughtfully looked toward Gu Chen, and at the same time, Su Wan glanced at her eldest son.
Gu Chen: "..."
He had actually calmed down a bit, but earlier that morning, upon seeing that rabbit, the suppressed feelings in his blood surged once again.
And when Vivian thanked him, Gu Chen could only manage a single word response. Any more, and he feared giving away his emotions.
As a result... it seemed like both his mother and sister had noticed something?
Gu Chen ate his meal without any expression, and after he finished, he got up and returned to his room.
Soon someone knocked on the door.
"Xiaochen, it’s mom. Is it a good time to talk?"
Gu Chen felt somewhat helpless. Although he could guess what his mother wanted to talk about, he would never refuse her.
Gu Chen got up, opened the door, and Su Wan walked in.
Su Wan looked at his complexion, asked how he was feeling today, if there was any discomfort in his body, and told him not to worry too much about the Universe Alliance meeting.
She talked about a bunch of other things.
Gu Chen smiled helplessly, "Mom, is there actually another matter you want to inquire about?"
Su Wan: "Ah, but I wasn’t sure if you wanted to talk about it. However, since you brought it up now, it means you want to talk, right?"
Gu Chen hesitated for a few seconds, which was rare for him. He said, "Mom, I indeed have some special feelings toward Vivian. I can’t describe them precisely, but it’s a feeling I’ve never had before."
"That day, in the garden at home, I felt it the first time I saw her. Moreover, although I was taking the enhanced version of the exclusive medicine that can somewhat control the Manic-Depressive Period, it seemed to become less effective after I met her."
Su Wan nodded, "So, is that why you were so cold earlier when the young girl was thanking you, and you only replied with a single word?"
"Um..."
His mother was the person Gu Chen trusted the most, and he had nothing to hide from her.
After thinking it over, Su Wan said, "But I feel like Vivian is a bit afraid of you?"
A trace of annoyance flickered in Gu Chen’s eyes, he could definitely feel that the little bunny was very scared of him, as if his gaze alone could devour her.
But...
Gu Chen spoke calmly, "I haven’t completely figured out my own feelings yet, so I won’t take any action for the time being."
Su Wan continued, "Your Manic-Depressive Period is unstable right now, but it’s good that you can be so rational. Just don’t scare the young girl. The Beastman who went berserk before has already frightened her."
Gu Chen understood his mother’s words, she was telling him not to use his power to take advantage by force.
He wouldn’t do anything for now.
That’s because he hadn’t fully understood his own thoughts yet. If, when he became absolutely certain that she was the partner he wanted, by then... he would use every method available.
Of course, there was no need to tell his mother about this for now.
After Su Wan had a talk with her son, she left. She wouldn’t interfere too much with the children’s love affairs because such matters should take their natural course.
However, after Su Wan left, Gu Yan also sent a message to his elder brother.
Xiaoyan: Big brother, you were too aloof. Did Vivian offend you?
Gu Chen: No, I just felt a bit unwell.
Xiaoyan: Ah, are you okay, big brother?
Gu Chen: I’m fine, go to school. As for Vivian... tell her not to overthink it, I don’t have any issues with her.
Xiaoyan: Okay.
Gu Yan wasn’t aware of the specific condition of his elder brother’s health and only knew that he was also affected by the Manic-Depressive Period. But in Gu Yan’s mind, his big brother was very powerful and surely wouldn’t go berserk like those ordinary Beastmen.
And at home, he always felt that his big brother seemed to be doing well.
Actually, Gu Yan was considering asking Gu Qingyu about it, but since Vivian was also on the same aircraft, he thought it over and decided to speak to Vivian first, "Vivian, don’t be angry with my big brother, he didn’t ignore you on purpose."
"Ah, I know, it’s okay," Vivian replied.
Actually, Vivian felt somewhat uncomfortable; she was always nervous whenever she faced Gu Chen, and she didn’t know why.
After all, she became much more relaxed and familiar with Gu Yan and Gu Yu the second time she met them.
Could it really be because they were from enemy Beast Transformation clans?
The three of them took the aircraft to school and started their day of classes.
A lot of news about berserk Beastmen attacking people appeared on the Universe Network, but Gu Yan had specifically checked that the news of Vivian being attacked yesterday evening was not on there.
The Universe Network only mentioned the news of a member of the Wolf Clan who went berserk and was captured by the security team.
After all, the incident involved Gu Chen making an appearance, and the security team surely wouldn’t dare to expose him so easily. Similarly, the news about Vivian being carried away by Gu Chen was not revealed.
It goes without saying, even if the berserk Beastman hadn’t succeeded, Vivian appearing in such news would have had a significant impact on her future marriage possibilities.
Luckily, it didn’t happen.
By the time school ended in the evening, Vivian was supposed to go home as her mother was very worried about her. Then Gu Yan offered to take her home.
