Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 647: Is that it?

The Universe Alliance meeting, in the end, came to nothing, and in fact, there was no better way to address the berserk Beastmen. The only good news was that after suffering for a while, Gu Chen’s Manic-Depressive Period had finally ended.

Even though everyone knew that next year’s Manic-Depressive Period might be even more difficult to endure, at least for now, everything had returned to normal, and there was no need to worry about someone taking advantage of Gu Chen’s condition to cause trouble.

Gu Chen personally dealt with those guys from the Universe Alliance, taking the opportunity presented by the incident on Four Seasons Star to give them a good thrashing.

After several meetings, not only had he successfully secured two planets rich in rare resources, but he had also signed some safety regulations... all of which unilaterally favored Landis Star.

At the end of the meetings, the faces of several Universe Alliance members were exceptionally sour.

Ken slammed his palm angrily on the table, "I suspect this is a trap deliberately set by Gu Chen! He was never truly affected by the Manic-Depressive Period and then lured us into taking action, only to carve flesh from our bones!"

Odlande sighed, "We have already received confirmation that his Manic-Depressive Period is over for this year. Before the same time next year, he won’t be affected in any way, which means we can’t determine whether he was really under the influence of the Manic-Depressive Period initially."

Ken’s eyes widened, "Are we just going to let this go?"

"What can we do if we don’t let it go? Can your planets defeat Landis Star?"

"..."

If they could, they wouldn’t be sitting here exchanging words; they would have taken action long ago!

Odlande looked down, then glanced at Ji Rui, who remained silent. He sighed; it seemed they had missed an excellent opportunity once again.

Su Wan still found the time to tell her eldest son about the things Vivian had said to Xiaoyan regarding Gu Chen.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen was calm, "Hmm, I know, she’s a bit afraid of me. That’s why I haven’t taken the initiative to contact her. I’m worried about scaring her."

"It’s not just fear; she seems to be deliberately keeping a distance from us."

Gu Chen, looking into his mother’s serious eyes, said softly, "I can feel that she seems to have some concerns."

"Her concerns should be related to her father’s identity because it turns out, her real father is not the ordinary man listed on the registration documents, but someone else. However, other than directly asking Julia, we have no way of finding out who that man is for the time being."

Gu Chen’s eyes narrowed.

A man their family couldn’t trace.

It must be that the other party intentionally concealed their identity, and Gu Chen, very clever as he is, knew that the more the other party concealed, the more problematic it was!

Su Wan looked at her son’s slight frown and sighed softly, "Xiaochen, don’t blame your mother for investigating her. Mainly because, the last time your sister was nearly in trouble at the cinema was during that Star Beast mutation attack, I discovered that the mutant Star Beast did not harm Vivian."

Gu Chen suddenly looked up.

Su Wan said earnestly, "Vivian may be harboring some significant secret."

Gu Chen knew his mother was very worried, and he replied, "Mom, don’t worry. Although I have feelings for her, I have never been one to act on emotion alone."

"Mmm, mother knows. And this matter hasn’t reached a final conclusion yet. Besides, I actually feel that Vivian is a very gentle and lovely girl."

The topic was somewhat grave, not to mention that this was Xiaochen’s first time liking someone.

But Su Wan believed that her son wasn’t blindly infatuated with love; he could discern the pros and cons clearly. Moreover, it was only a precaution in his heart, just in case Vivian’s concerns turned out to be nothing serious.

However, watching her son’s retreating figure, Su Wan thought that if they couldn’t investigate who Vivian’s real father was... then his identity was certainly not that simple.

But really, could anything be more complicated than the Insect God?

Su Wan rubbed her temples.

The children are grown up now, and as a mother, even though she’s let go a bit, she can’t help but worry about them.

It had been a long time since Su Wan had contacted her mother Lin Ranyue, so she made a special call to her. Lin Ranyue thought her daughter must have something important to say, but then she heard, "Being a parent is really not easy. Back then, you and Su Zhen were in such a situation. Ah, Mom, you suffered a lot."

Lin Ranyue was puzzled for a few seconds, not knowing why her daughter said that, but still, she laughed and said, "Because I love you, I’m willing to do anything for you. Besides, you have always been sensible and outstanding, and later on, you didn’t make me worry about anything." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After chatting with her mother for a while, Su Wan hung up without dwelling too much on her children’s romantic affairs.

Because for matters of the heart, when fate arrives, any external force may be powerless.

Though Su Wan was not overly fixated, Gu Chen, upon returning to his study, calmly dealt with some official work. Once the work was done, he sat there, his long fingers tapping on the desktop.

Azure Dragon: "Master, are you troubled by something?"

Gu Chen: "Generally, if a girl avoids you, what could be the reasons?"

Azure Dragon: "..."

This question was too full of emotional complexity, Azure Dragon got stuck for a moment, then immediately messaged White Tiger privately!

Azure Dragon: White Tiger, I... I have a friend who’s asking, if a girl avoids your advances, what are generally the reasons?

White Tiger: Damn! Old Dragon, are you about to get off the single track without the rest of us AIs knowing?

Azure Dragon has retracted the previous message.

White Tiger: Hey, hey, hey, don’t, don’t! You’ve come to the right person by asking this question!

White Tiger: First, she doesn’t like you. Second, she can’t like you.

Azure Dragon: Is it that simple?

White Tiger: Human emotions, they’re always both simple and complex.

Azure Dragon’s database was more about combat, not as rich in human emotions as White Tiger’s, so it faithfully relayed this answer to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen fell into deep thought.

Either she doesn’t like him or... she can’t like him.

If she doesn’t like him, Gu Chen wouldn’t say another word and would never appear before her again. But if it’s that she can’t like him, then he’s willing to help her resolve the reason she can’t!

After thinking it through, Gu Chen stood up and went out the door to knock on the door of his sister, Gu Yan’s room. When Gu Yan opened the door, she approximately guessed what it was about.

"Big brother, are you here to talk about Vivian?"

"Yes, there’s something I’d like to ask for your help with."

After listening to her brother’s request, Gu Yan fell silent for a while before finally nodding, "Okay."

Because she liked Vivian a lot, Gu Yan secretly hoped that she would become her sister-in-law. But if Vivian truly didn’t like her brother, it was better to clarify things quickly for the good of both parties.

So Gu Yan decided to help her brother with this favor and arranged to meet with Vivian.
