Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 690: Want to Introduce You to a Hundred Girlfriends?
I wouldn’t put it past her.
Su Wan did indeed harbor such thoughts.
Although she didn’t know if she could blow that old insectoid to oblivion, if it dared to bully Xiaoyan, she certainly wouldn’t let it off the hook.
At this moment, Bai Li was unaware that there were people queuing up with their numbers, waiting to blast him.
Bai Li looked at Xi Le in the projection, the cold light in his eyes undisturbed.
He asked, "Does that Lucifer want to see me?"
Xi Le, "Yes, my lord, he has contacted me, saying he has important matters to discuss with you."
Bai Li half-closed his eyes.
Lucifer was an enemy of Gu Jue and Su Wan. If he could deliver this octopus trussed up to the couple, would they perhaps be less hostile towards him?
Would they mind him getting close to Xiaoyan?
Lord Insect God was weighing the feasibility of this.
There was silence for a long while.
Xi Le ventured to ask, "My lord, if you do not wish to meet with him, I can simply turn him away. After all, he has a grudge against Landis Star, and we are still in an alliance with Landis Star."
"No," Bai Li slowly began, "let him come to Landis Star and find me."
Xi Le almost couldn’t control himself, the corners of his mouth twitched.
My lord, you are leading Lucifer right into the lion’s den... Oh, that isn’t right. Lucifer, that utterly wicked octopus, can hardly be considered a sheep.
Whether Landis Star is the lion, remains to be seen.
Xi Le said obediently, "Yes, my lord, I will inform Lucifer right away."
Lucifer received this reply promptly, and his first reaction was to wonder if he had somehow offended the Insect God before.
The answer was no.
Because for many years, Lucifer had never had a direct conflict with the Insect God.
He suspected that the other party was doing this deliberately, planning to seize him directly and hand him over to Gu Jue.
If he thought about it rationally, he definitely shouldn’t go!
Lucifer sat in a room with the lights off, sinking into a black sofa, with his hands crossed and placed in front of his brow.
Soon, there was a knock on the door, which then slowly opened.
Moran turned on the light casually, "Brother, are things not going well?"
Lucifer sighed, "Doris asked me for help, to free herself from the control of the Insect God, while the Insect God himself is on Landis Star. If I want to meet him, I can only go to Landis Star."
Moran’s eyes flickered as she said, "Are you sure Doris can help Vivian?"
"Not certain."
Lucifer was a very rational man; he knew that Doris might not be of assistance, but in the entire Universe, there were not many who were adept at manipulating Spatial Superpowers.
And Doris was the only one who could help him!
Having heard this, Moran also fell silent. In the end, she said, "Brother, you can’t go to Landis Star. The couple, Gu Jue and Su Wan, won’t let you off."
Moran had previously been to Landis Star, and she was aware that Su Wan must have investigated her.
However, it was also clear to them that each grievance had its culprit, and even after they learned of Vivian’s identity, they had not made a move.
Their enemy had always been only Lucifer.
Lucifer gave a desolate smile, "Since they are such upright individuals, I’m even more at ease. If I fall into the hands of Gu Jue when I go to meet the Insect God this time, I can still plead with them, to let me cure Vivian first, then they can deal with me afterward."
"Brother!"
"Xiaoran, don’t try to persuade me anymore. Vivian is my only child, the only child between Julia and me. If it’s destined that I can’t spend this life with Julia, then I should cure Vivian even more, so she can stay by her mother’s side."
Moran: "Lucifer, you are not the kind of person who places great value on personal relationships."
Lucifer gave a self-deprecating smile, "Indeed, I have never really been the kind to place great importance on relationships. For example, when our father was dying, I did not choose to save him. For example, I knew that you, my half-sister from the same father, had a very hard life growing up, and I did not lend a hand... But, Xiaoran, I have come to realize only now that there is karma in this world."
He looked down at his hands.
These hands were stained with blood, among which was the blood of some innocents.
If Su Wan hadn’t been lucky, she might have been one of them.
Moran: "But, didn’t Doris ask you to kill Su Wan at that time?"
Lucifer: "Yes, indeed she did, but all along, I’ve truly wanted to kill Gu Jue."
Only, I have never succeeded.
Because as long as Gu Jue was around, no matter how powerful Lucifer was, he was always the loser.
"Xiaoran, if anything happens to me, could you look after Julia and her daughter for me?" Lucifer walked out, his amorous peach blossom eyes incredibly serene at the moment.

During this period, Gu Yan was able to see Bai Li in the library every day.
The two could sit there, and even if they said nothing, Gu Yan felt quite content with this arrangement.
But today, Bai Li closed his book early, even before school had ended.
Gu Yan looked up at him.
Bai Li said, "Xiaoyan, you should go home early today. I have some important matters to attend to."
Gu Yan: "Is it dangerous?"
"No."
Even though she knew how powerful he was, Gu Yan couldn’t help but worry. She packed up her books, suppressed the tumult in her heart, and feigned nonchalance. "Alright then, you go ahead with your matters. I should go home early today. Mom is making something delicious tonight."
"Sure."
After watching Gu Yan leave, Bai Li also stood up, boarded an aircraft, and flew directly to Su Family’s restaurant.
Lately, Bai Li had been frequenting the Su Family’s restaurant, and Su Yao always greeted him cheerfully whenever she saw him.
Bai Li nodded faintly and stepped into a private room that had been reserved in advance.
Sheng Le, dressed in a white chief chef’s outfit, walked by behind Su Yao, frowning. "Why do you always look so respectful every time you see that man?"
Other people still didn’t know that Bai Li was the Insect God, but Su Yao did.
She spoke in a secretive tone, "Although you are my master, I will not tell you who he is!"
Sheng Le, a bit speechless, knocked on the young girl’s head. "Oh come on, you’re so secretive. He’s just an Insectoid. Now, hurry up and go slice the potatoes!"
Clutching her head, Su Yao replied, "Master, you’ve been quite irritable lately. Is it because you’re being pressured to get married? I heard that your brother-in-law is going to introduce you to a hundred girlfriends."
Sheng Le’s face darkened, "You little rascal, what do you know? Hurry and go cut the potatoes!"
The two of them walked away, bickering and making a commotion.
Meanwhile, in the next private room, Bai Li poured himself a cup of tea. He spoke softly to the man who had just entered in disguise, "I did not expect you to actually come."
Lucifer’s expression was very ugly.
He had not anticipated that the Insect God would choose not only Landis Star as their meeting place.
But also directly at the Su Family’s restaurant!
