Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 759: Lord Insect God Is in a Bad Mood
"Huh?" Gu Yan hesitated for a moment before whispering, "Mom, I was actually considering the issue of jealousy, which made me want to ask about that Freya. Would it be inappropriate to ask Bai Li so directly?"
"Xiaoyan, you make your own decision."
When it came to matters of the heart, Su Wan would not interfere.
But she wouldn’t guide either.
For instance, she would never tell her daughter which man suited her better, or was a better match for her.
Gu Yan wasn’t someone to dwell on issues; after thinking it over, she sent Bai Li a message asking him to reply when he had time.
When Bai Li received Gu Yan’s message, he stood up and walked out, handing over the task of commanding the starship to Xi Le.
"Lord, where are you going? The battle is about to start."
"You take charge."
Leaving everything behind, Bai Li went back to the rest room, took out his light computer and dialed back.
Gu Yan had just finished showering when she saw the projection from Bai Li and immediately answered.
In the virtual screen, Gu Yan appeared with her long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a white lace-trimmed sleep gown. Her creamy skin seemed to glow.
Bai Li suddenly felt fortunate that he hadn’t dialed in from the command center.
His Adam’s apple moved slightly, yet his voice was very calm, "Xiaoyan, what did you need from me?"
"Are you busy?"
"Not busy."
"Oh, I wanted to ask you something. It’s like this, I heard that Queen Freya brought her clan to you, right? She admires you a lot, and I..."
"You don’t have to care about her; she no longer exists."
Gu Yan had been a bit embarrassed a moment before, after all, it involved her being jealous, but upon hearing that ’she no longer exists,’ she was instantly stunned.
She blinked in confusion, "No longer exists, what does that mean?"
Bai Li pursed his lips.
Looking at Gu Yan’s soft and sweet appearance, he suddenly didn’t want to reveal the truth.
That might scare the person in front of him.
But not telling her would mean deceiving her... Bai Li didn’t want to lie to Gu Yan, but he also didn’t want her to be scared of him after hearing the truth.
So...
The signal was interrupted just like that.
Gu Yan: ???
Gu Yan quickly asked Xiaofu to redial, but the call wouldn’t go through.
Xiaofu: "It’s possible they’re in the middle of a battle over there, so the signal is being disrupted. I’ll try again later."
Gu Yan: "No need, battle is the priority. It might have been a surprise attack."
Gu Yan sent a message to Bai Li, not knowing if he would receive it, roughly saying that battling was more important, he should reply when he wasn’t busy, and to be safe.
Bai Li couldn’t receive the message at that moment.
Because he had crushed his light computer.
A few minutes later, the first wave of the battle had already ended, and all fleets were resupplying.
Xi Le looked up and saw their Lord Insect God walking back with a displeased expression.
He hastily asked, "Lord, what happened?"
Bai Li turned his head, "Xi Le, when you kill people, is your wife afraid of you?"
"Ah, no, she isn’t afraid. Although she’s a purebred human, she has a lot of courage."
Bai Li frowned.
After all, how could Su Man compare to Xiaoyan.
Xi Le, looking at his own Lord Insect God, furrowed his brows deeper and deeper. He always felt that his answer just now didn’t seem to have satisfied the Lord.
This battle, actually, wasn’t that hard to fight.
On the Universe Alliance Army’s side, they were merely putting up a desperate resistance.
But Xi Le was trembling with trepidation. Through experience, he knew that when the Lord Insect God frowned, he was in a particularly bad mood!
When the Lord Insect God was in a bad mood, the rest of the Insect Clan would definitely be uneasy!
Although the Lord Insect God wouldn’t, out of displeasure, psychically connect and make them all blow up... The issue with Queen Freya and her clan was her own fault.
Having barely waited until the end of the battle, Xi Le still felt uneasy. He thought it over and finally figured it out.
The only one who could affect the mood of the Lord Insect God must be that little princess from Landis Star!
And the question Lord Insect God just asked him... Xi Le’s eyes suddenly lit up!
It seemed that the little princess didn’t know about the slaughter of the Freya Clan yet, although he wasn’t clear on why Su Wan and the others hadn’t told her... But such matters would indeed be better coming from the Lord Insect God himself.
Anyone else saying it would bring in a degree of objectivity.
And judging by the state of the Lord Insect God, he probably hadn’t told her yet.
Xi Le looked around at the equally trembling insects and felt it was his duty to relieve the Lord of his worries.
He saw Bai Li get up to leave and immediately followed.
"My Lord, I think it would be better for you to tell the little princess about the Freya matter in person."
Bai Li stopped in his tracks and turned back with a dangerous look in his eyes at Xi Le.
Xi Le’s scalp tingled, but he still said firmly, "Even if you don’t tell her, she will eventually learn about it from somebody else. Command Su Wan hasn’t said anything, she probably means for you to tell her daughter personally."
Bai Li’s icy gaze softened slightly.
He tilted his chin up, "Go on."
"My Lord, Commander Su is very smart, and her intentions are surely right. You can tell the little princess about what happened, but there’s no need to mention the process. Moreover, you can say that Queen Freya and her clan were a threat to our clan, and by putting it in the context of the bigger picture, the princess won’t have much to say about it. She is a very intelligent and reasonable person."
"She definitely won’t meddle in matters of great significance. And, frankly, she wouldn’t want you to face any danger or trouble in a life-or-death situation."
"Of course, this might prevent her from realizing how strong you are, but that’s not an issue, because only then will she feel sympathy for you in her heart. My Lord, sometimes, a man also needs to show weakness in front of his woman."
Xi Le rambled on and then suddenly lowered his voice, whispering a bit of gossip, "I’ve heard that Commander Gu, that War God-like figure, is actually acting coy in front of his wife, Commander Su! Although it’s a bit beneath a man’s dignity to do that, Commander Su is such a good person. Commander Gu surely had to deploy all his skills to win her over, didn’t he?"
As he said this, Xi Le didn’t like such a strong woman himself.
His wife, including all his other lovers, were docile and obedient.
The reason Su Man became his wife and he always treated her well was because she was gentle, smart, and sensible.
However, the example of Gu Yan and Su Wan was more persuasive for the Lord Insect God!
Sure enough, after listening to his subordinate’s analysis, Bai Li pondered for a moment, then said, "Get me a new holocomputer. Immediately, at once."
Xi Le didn’t dare ask what happened to the previous holocomputer and immediately nodded, instructing his men to carry out the task.
A few minutes later, on Landis Star in the residence of Commander Gu, just as Gu Yan was about to fall asleep, the holocomputer suddenly activated.
Xiaofu called to her, "Master, master, Lord Insect God is contacting you via holographic communication. Should I connect?"
