Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 704: The CP He Ships Hasn’t Broken Up!
The original Gu Yuan’s affection for his wife Miao Yue, the later Gu Jue’s doting on his wife Su Wan, Gu Zilan’s love for his wife Luo Manya... Now, Gu Chen may not have a partner yet, but it’s undeniable that once he does in the future, he’ll definitely be a husband madly in love!
Although Bai Li still didn’t quite understand, he had visited the residence of Commander Gu many times over the years.
Indeed.
Gu Jue and Su Wan, that couple, are so loving!
Bai Li suddenly had an epiphany.
Could it be that Xiaoyan has developed for him what Landis people consider the most important kind of love?
On the one hand, Xi Le was nervous and anxious, Bai Li waved his hand and dismissed him directly.
Xi Le breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, when he first saw Lord Insect God keeping the Gu Family’s little princess by his side, Xi Le didn’t think much of it.
After all, at that time, the little princess was still very young.
But now, she was already a young lady of eighteen or nineteen, and with Lord Insect God being so outstanding, the two of them together, in fact, seemed like a natural outcome?
Just, he didn’t know if Lord Insect God had any plans to marry or find a partner.
And... would Gu Jue and Su Wan agree?
After Xi Le returned to his residence with a heavy heart, he didn’t speak for a long time. Su Man somewhat discontentedly said, "What’s wrong with you today, you’re so out of it?"
Xi Le: "It’s not about me, it’s about Lord Insect God."
"Oh? What’s with Lord Insect God?"
"What do you think, is Lord Insect God a good match with Gu Jue’s daughter, Gu Yan?"
Upon hearing this, Su Man was stunned, and after a few seconds, she screamed, "That’s impossible! How could Lord Insect God fancy that little girl! Besides, Su Wan wouldn’t let her daughter marry Lord Insect God! Even though we’ve always been allies, would Su Wan willingly let her daughter marry here?"
Su Man spoke several sentences in a row, actually trying to comfort herself.
Or rather, convince herself.
Xi Le was also convinced by her, and after some thought, he said, "After all, Lord Insect God watched that girl grow up, he probably feels about her as one would a junior. Besides, he’s currently busy with the merger with the Freya Clan, Lord doesn’t have the time to think about these personal feelings."
"Exactly! He is Lord Insect God after all!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
And this couple had no idea that the Lord Insect God they were talking about had boarded a starship, which after several space jumps, arrived the next morning at nine o’clock. When Gu Yan stepped off the craft, she held her books and said goodbye to her brother Gu Yu, and headed towards the classroom.
However, on the way there, she saw a young man standing under an ancient ginkgo tree, with silver short hair, wearing the uniform of Empire University, standing there looking at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan was stunned.
There were many students coming and going, but in their eyes, they seemed to see no one else.
Bai Li stepped forward, naturally taking the books from Gu Yan’s hands, "Do you have class this morning?"
"Yeah," Gu Yan finally found her voice, "Why are you here?"
"Because you didn’t accept my friend request."
For some reason, Gu Yan could hear a tinge of grievance in his words?
Could Brother Little Mushroom feel aggrieved?
The decision Gu Yan had made earlier was all disrupted by his sudden appearance, and many students around them had also noticed them.
She felt a bit flustered, holding onto her books as she walked forward, "I have class now."
"I’m free right now."
"..."
Two people, keeping pace with each other, walked into the academic building.
Ji Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Bai Li appear.
He had actually thought that the CP he was so invested in was going to break up.
However, Mu Feng and a classmate happened to pass by and saw the two people walking away; his eyes furrowed slightly.
His roommate, upon seeing this, whispered, "Didn’t they say Bai Li had already gone back to the Insectoid Planet? Why has he come back? But clinging to Gu Yan won’t do any good."
Mu Feng turned his head, "What do you mean?"
"Hey, Mu Feng, don’t you know? I heard that the Plantman Star wants to establish diplomatic relations with us, and they are interested in an intermarriage with people from our planet, with Gu Yan being the primary candidate!"
Given Gu Yan’s identity and the fact that she was a Plantman, the Plantman Star indeed saw her as the prime choice for an alliance through marriage in order to get on good terms with Landis Star.
Upon hearing this, Mu Feng’s heart sank!
Not to mention that on Landis Star, those who wished to marry Gu Yan could line up from the city center to the outskirts, there was also Bai Li who kept appearing by Gu Yan’s side, like an unshakeable ghost.
And now, a Plantman had also shown up?
No, he had to take action quickly, or else, if he waited any longer, Gu Yan would be wed to someone else!
Mu Feng hadn’t been too anxious before, partly because Gu Yan hadn’t graduated yet, and certainly, both Commander Su and Commander Gu would not allow their counterpart to get married so early.
They would, at the very least, wait until after graduation.
Moreover, Mu Feng had only recently annulled his engagement with Luo Xixi, and if he rashly expressed his feelings for Gu Yan now, it might cause displeasure with Commander Su and others.
Thus, Mu Feng had thought of waiting until after his own graduation and entry into the military, to perform well in front of Commander Su and Commander Gu, and then pursue Gu Yan, allowing things to take their natural course.
But now, he couldn’t wait any longer!
After parting with his companion, Mu Feng returned to his dormitory, picked up his light-brain device, and dialed his grandfather’s contact.
"Grandpa, I want to marry Gu Yan."
The head of the Mu Family had become much more compliant over the years, having experienced the events with Mu Lei and Mu Xiaoge changing their surnames, and knowing the great strength of the Gu Family now, they had abandoned their old and conservative ideas, lest they wanted to lose their standing on Landis Star.
Therefore, they had been behaving themselves properly and decorously.
When he suddenly heard the most outstanding young member of their clan declare his wish to marry the little princess of the Gu Family, the Mu Family head nearly fell off his chair!
"What, what did you say?"
"Grandpa, I want to marry Gu Yan."
"... Why?"
Mu Feng said earnestly, "Gu Yan is beautiful and smart, and also very kind and lovely. Her family background goes without saying. Grandpa, I have no reason not to marry her."
"I know that young girl is indeed very good, but the main point is... would Commander Gu and Commander Su agree to give Gu Yan to you in marriage? Xiao Feng, our Mu Family is no longer the most deeply-rooted ancient clan in the Federation Empire."
After all, the actions the Mu Family took in the past were essentially an indirect offense against Su Wan’s family.
Thankfully, it hadn’t caused any severe troubles, and since the other party was magnanimous, they hadn’t pursued the issue.
Otherwise...
Mu Feng also fell silent for a while, then he said, "Grandpa, these years, Uncle Gu Lei has been quite good to our Mu Family, and the mistakes of the past have nothing to do with us. He is Gu Yan’s grandfather; look, could you maybe help me talk to him?"
"Grandpa, I truly like Gu Yan! And, if I can marry her, that might just be the opportunity for the rise of our Mu Family!"
