Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 739: Why Didn’t You Run Away?

Su Wan carefully inspected the damaged Interstellar Prison cafeteria. The large hole in the wall was clearly caused by a starship.

In the past, Doris had been just as arrogant, using her spatial superpower to send a starship in and take many prisoners away.

This time...

Su Wan immediately communicated with the Insect God, Bai Li, to report the incident.

Bai Li, "Doris is still at the base, she hasn’t left."

"That means, there is another space ability user, whose powers are no less than mine or Doris’s. You all at the front lines need to be extra careful."

"Mhm."

It wasn’t Doris.

Su Wan trusted Bai Li.

She also sent this information to Gu Jue and Gu Chen. A powerful space ability user could have a significant impact on the war.

Then she asked her deputy, "Have you finished compiling the list of those who escaped?"

"It’s done, here’s the list."

Su Wan quickly scanned the list, slightly furrowing her brows, "Lucifer didn’t run this time."

Anyone who would strike such a heavy blow against the Landis Star homeland at this time must be from the opposition, either the remnants of Lucifer’s Star Thieves or that group from the Universe Alliance.

No matter who it was, with an opportunity like this, why didn’t they take Lucifer but instead took some prisoners who, at first glance, didn’t seem that important?

"Take me to see Lucifer."

"Yes."

"Oh right, send a large number of people to protect the medical center."

The Star Warriors found it strange, why send more people to the medical center, but they still obeyed Su Wan’s orders and acted immediately.

Su Wan then approached the place where Lucifer was held.

Lucifer’s hands were cuffed with restraints specifically designed to inhibit superpowers; at that moment, he was just an ordinary person.

Lucifer smiled, "So it’s Commander Su, what, coming to see if I’ve run? Don’t worry, you kept your promise and saved Vivian, I will keep mine as well."

"It seems you’ve been in touch with the group that came to rescue you?"

The smile on Lucifer’s face paused for a few seconds, then slowly spread again, "Su Wan, you really are a very clever woman. Many people say you rely on Gu Jue, but that isn’t true. You’re actually very formidable, just portraying weakness. When you need to be tough, you’re tougher than anyone."

"You’re right, they’ve contacted me, but as you can see, I turned them down."

"Who are they?"

Lucifer paused slightly, then shook his head, "Commander Su, that I cannot tell you."

Su Wan, "Then you know, although part of Vivian’s soul has been retrieved, it’s not certain yet whether it can be fused back into her body, I am having someone treat her continuously."

The expression on Lucifer’s face didn’t change, not even the curve of his lips.

Su Wan nodded in realization, "You indeed discussed a deal with that group about Vivian, so you also knew about her condition. Knowing that Vivian needed to recover and still needed me, that’s why you didn’t leave, right?"

Lucifer, "..."

He gritted his teeth, "Su Wan, being too smart as a woman is not always a good thing."

Su Wan shook her head, "No, I think the opposite is true. Only by being smart and strong can one protect oneself and those one wishes to protect. Have any of those who approached you told you how hard Julia’s life has been recently? She has become much haggard, worrying about her daughter in the hospital and you in the prison."

"If it weren’t for being with you, Julia should have had a happy and fulfilling life. It was you, Lucifer, you ruined the life of a tender and innocent Julia."

"Furthermore, you let those people see how important Vivian is to you, and what they want to do, presumably, is to leverage your power. So, tell me, wouldn’t they lay hands on Vivian?"

The expression on Lucifer’s face finally cracked.

"No, they don’t have the ability to save Vivian. The best thing for her right now is to have her stay at the medical center on Landis Star, and you will make sure she gets the best treatment possible."

Although the two have always been enemies,

It must be said that Lucifer understood Su Wan’s psychology very clearly.

As long as Lucifer stayed in prison properly, Su Wan would indeed go to treat Vivian.

Su Wan looked at the certainty in Lucifer’s eyes; she shook her head helplessly, "Lucifer, it seems you understand me but not those who’ve approached you. They can’t save Vivian, but they can destroy her."

If something happened to Vivian in the medical center of Landis Star, making her irrecoverable, then there would be no more leverage, and Lucifer would do everything possible to escape from here!

Lucifer struggled to run out, "They can’t be allowed to touch Vivian!"

Su Wan: "I’ve already sent a large number of people there; they wouldn’t dare touch a hair on Vivian’s head. So now, are you willing to tell me who they exactly are?"

Lucifer calmed down and looked at Su Wan.

Su Wan nodded, "Alright, you are still betting they won’t touch Vivian. So now, I will connect to the medical center’s video feed."

Su Wan’s authority was very high, so Vermilion Bird immediately got through to Bai Ze’s mainframe signal relay and connected the video feed of the medical center.

On the virtual screen appeared hundreds of displays, and Su Wan accurately found the ICU where Vivian was located and enlarged that surveillance feed.

In the monitor, Julia stood guard outside, propping her chin with one hand, shadows under her eyes, evidently having gone without rest for quite a while.

Su Wan’s daughter, Gu Yan, just then walked in from the outside, carrying a bouquet of flowers in her hands. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Su Wan: "Xiaoyan still sees Vivian as a good friend and regularly visits her, even though she has never woken up."

Lucifer was aware of this as well.

He looked at the two girls with similar faces lying in the healing pods and for a moment couldn’t quite distinguish which one was his daughter Vivian.

Su Wan said, "Even if the treatment is successful, we’re not sure from which body Vivian will awaken. However, the other girl named Xu Wei’an has a great relationship with Vivian. Initially, Vivian couldn’t bear to kill her, which is why I brought them back together. Julia said that once both children wake up, she will have two daughters, twin daughters."

Lucifer spoke softly, "This child is actually as kind-hearted as her mother. Twin daughters? That’s wonderful."

Su Wan: "Actually, the other half of Vivian’s soul and personality is very similar to you."

Lucifer’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Su Wan continued, "But don’t think that your Star Thief enterprise now has a successor. She is decisive and calm in her actions, but not as wicked as you. Listen to me, if you still wish for your daughter’s well-being, let her stay with Julia."

Lucifer gave a bitter smile.

What didn’t he know?

And just at that moment, the virtual screen in midair suddenly made an electrical noise, fizzing and crackling, and the next moment, the entire screen blacked out!
