Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 661: Has Your Manic-Depressive Period Not Arrived Yet?

Chapter 661: Chapter 661: Has Your Manic-Depressive Period Not Arrived Yet?

You were chatting with a male classmate and seemed quite happy when you arrived.

Bai Li pursed his lips, "Just got here."

Gu Yan had already pulled him to sit on the couch, and asked Xiaofu to pour two glasses of juice for them.

"Have you been very busy lately? I heard there’s going to be a war, and my dad has already taken the troops out. How is it this time, will it be very dangerous? Is the Insect Clan very powerful?"

Gu Yan asked a series of questions. In fact, after not being in touch for so long, and hearing that things were not very peaceful outside, she was really worried about Bai Li.

Even though she knew that he was very strong, even stronger than her own father.

But worrying about someone does not cease because they are strong. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The deep concern in her eyes eased the chill in Bai Li’s heart a bit.

He said softly, "I’m fine, don’t worry."

"That’s true, if you have time to keep me company, huh, how long can you stay?"

"A few hours."

Gu Yan felt a bit disappointed after hearing that, just a few hours, but she also knew that a great battle was imminent, and Brother Little Mushroom was joining hands with her dad, so he really shouldn’t even be here at this time.

But since he was here, Gu Yan was still very happy and told him about many things that had recently happened.

"Actually, I think that girl Su Yao is quite good. She has an open mind, and she knows what kind of life she wants. Oh right, she’s working hard on cooking, planning to completely break away from her mother’s control after she comes of age."

"I moved dormitories, and Vivian is deliberately keeping her distance from me. Our friendship can’t continue. Even though Big Brother said he investigated, and Vivian and her mother have been law-abiding on Landis Star and haven’t been in contact with the Star Thieves, I even suspect that she and her mother have completely cut ties with Lucifer. But Vivian is still deliberately staying away from me. Although it hurts, I respect her decision."

"But it still hurts quite a bit, so I thought I should get to know more friends."

Bai Li frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Was that man in the communication just now a new friend that Gu Yan had made?

During his absence, and right when Vivian broke off her friendship with Gu Yan, Gu Yan had made a lot of new friends.

Bai Li could tolerate Gu Yan being close to the Gu family, because they were related by blood.

But if she were close to other people...

Bai Li did not speak for a while, and Gu Yan turned her head curiously, "Brother Little Mushroom, what’s wrong?"

Just at this moment, Xiaofu, fluttering his mechanical wings, said, "Master, your mother is calling you downstairs for dinner."

Time flies.

Gu Yan nodded. She hesitated as she looked at Bai Li, "Brother Little Mushroom, I can’t take you downstairs to eat, but I’ll bring you some food back when my mother isn’t paying attention later!"

"Go ahead."

Gu Yan was somewhat reluctant to leave, but she knew her mother was waiting downstairs, so she said goodbye to Bai Li and opened the door to go downstairs.

She happened to see her brother Gu Yu also coming out of his room.

Gu Yu was curious, "Xiaoyan, were you talking to someone in your room just now?"

"Oh, I was communicating with a classmate, I joined an Ancient Earth study club..."

The siblings chatted while walking downstairs.

"Your club doesn’t involve anything dangerous, does it?"

"Of course not, and the venues for activities are mainly within the school."

Su Wan was laying chopsticks at the dining table. Ajue had gone out to fight, and Xiaochen had been staying at the Imperial Palace for this period. Now, it was just her looking after the two kids at home.

"What are you two chatting about so animatedly?"

"Mom, Xiaoyan joined a club studying Ancient Earth culture."

Su Wan knew that her daughter Xiaoyan had inherited this interest from her. She too had always liked Ancient Earth culture and, due to some chance events, had lived there for a few years.

Su Wan smiled, "That’s good."

However, Gu Yan, preoccupied with Bai Li hidden in her room, was unusually quiet during dinner and ate quickly.

The whole time, it was Su Wan and Gu Yu chatting.

After eating quickly, she wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "Mom, Brother, you keep eating. I’m done."

"You just ate that little?"

"Oh, I need to go back and continue discussing with my club mates, so I’ll take some food upstairs and eat more if I get hungry."

Having said that, Gu Yan took a plate, loaded it with tasty food, and headed upstairs.

Su Wan frowned slightly, feeling her daughter was a bit strange tonight.

But it was at this time that Gu Yu spoke up, "Mom, my research with Uncle Lan Yu has made progress, and in a few months, we should be able to develop the latest exclusive medicine."

Su Wan’s train of thought was interrupted, she turned her head, "What exclusive medicine?"

Gu Yu, with food still in his mouth but speaking very clearly, said, "It’s the exclusive medicine used when Beastmen go wild during their Manic-Depressive Period. It should help Big Brother, and now that his Manic-Depressive Period is over, he’ll have even more time to verify the results. At the moment, it’s showing initial effectiveness for ordinary Beastmen already. Big Brother’s Beast Transformation Level is very high, but I have information that this medicine will definitely help him."

After hearing this, Su Wan’s eyes grew very tender, "You’ve been working on experiments lately to research this?"

"Yeah, I want to use my own strengths to do something, to protect all of you." Gu Yu finished off the last of the porridge in his bowl in a few bites and said, "Mom, I’m done eating too; I have to go back to my room to continue compiling data."

"Okay, don’t tire yourself out. Remember to rest."

"Alright, Mom."

"Wait a second, Xiaoyu," Su Wan thought for a moment and still decided to speak, "Has your Manic-Depressive Period not started yet?"

Nowadays, on Landis Star, children of the Beastmen typically had their Manic-Depressive Period erupt in the year they turn eighteen.

But now, almost a year was about to pass, and Xiaoyu’s Manic-Depressive Period still hadn’t arrived.

Gu Yu: "Oh, that? It hasn’t started yet, but there’s nothing to worry about, Mom. I’m healthy. Maybe it’s just coming a bit later than for others."

"Well, as long as you’re not feeling unwell, that’s good. Go busy yourself in your room."

Gu Yu nodded and headed upstairs.

Su Wan watched her younger son go up the stairs while the household robot was already cleaning up the dining table; she continued standing there.

Vermilion Bird flew over, "Master, you seem troubled?"

"It’s not so much troubled; I’m just quite worried about the kids. When they were younger, I used to worry a lot, always thinking things would be better once they grew up. But now, I still have to worry, only the nature of the worries has changed."

Vermilion Bird: "It’s because you love them that you’ll always worry. Some parents who don’t love their children just dump them on a strange planet."

Su Wan chuckled, "You’re alluding to Su Man, aren’t you?"

Vermilion Bird: "She and her mother are alike, neither a competent mother."
