Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 768: Complaining

Actually, it wasn’t really tattling.

It was just stating the facts.

As for Bai Li, upon seeing the message, what he thought, well, that would depend on how deep his feelings for her were.

After telling on them, Gu Yan returned to the dining table to look for yummy food and incidentally received quite a few gifts from her older male cousins.

It wasn’t even Gu Yan’s birthday, so the gifts from her cousins were all small ones.

One of the cousins teased her, "Xiaoyan, you’re not interested in these mechanical things, including Mechas, so why keep so many?"

"I’m saving them. Even though I don’t pilot Mechas, what if my future husband does, or my kids do?"

The cousin chuckled, "Xiaoyan, you’re not even married yet, and you’re already siding with your future husband!"

"That’s not true!"

Meanwhile, Lin Ranyue, upon hearing this, leaned in and whispered to her daughter Su Wan, "Do you really agree to marry Xiaoyan off to that Insect God? I’ve heard that Insectoids don’t have a monogamous system like we do. What if Lord Insect God marries other women later on? Won’t our Xiaoyan be aggrieved?"

Su Wan laughed coldly, "If that old bug dares to marry another woman, Ajue and I could just go and bomb the Insectoid Planet! Besides, who said we’re letting Xiaoyan marry over there? We will make that old bug marry into our family instead!"

Lin Ranyue was utterly shocked and gave her daughter a thumbs-up.

She said quietly, "My daughter is truly dominant! I wouldn’t have dared say such things to Commander Gu back in the day."

"Mom, did you really have such thoughts?" Su Wan was caught between laughter and tears, not knowing how Ajue would have chosen if he had really been asked to marry into her family back then.

Lin Ranyue looked around carefully and nodded earnestly, "Of course, my dear! I can’t let my lovingly raised daughter just be given away so easily! Luckily, Commander Gu’s family hails from this planet, so after you got married, it wasn’t like you married far away. Thus, Xiaoyan absolutely cannot marry far away either. Otherwise, if the little girl suffers in the future, we wouldn’t know, and it would break our hearts!"

"Yeah, Ajue and I think the same way."

After collecting gifts from everyone, Gu Yan then gave a gift to her grandmother, today’s birthday star Lin Ranyue.

It was a longevity-themed embroidery she had done by hand.

Lin Ranyue received many gifts, but when she got her granddaughter’s present, her eyes lit up.

"Ah, this gift is my favorite! Xiaoyan, did you embroider this all by yourself?"

"Yeah, but it’s not very good, nowhere near as good as Su Embroidery. Also, I initially wanted to do double-sided embroidery, but I didn’t have the skill, and there wasn’t enough time."

This kind of embroidery had been a long-lost skill from Ancient Earth and was no longer known by most people.

Gu Yan had studied cultural knowledge in this area, had a personal interest in it, and her family had no shortage of various types of books.

She also had much easier access to research materials than others.

But no matter what, this was a very sincere token of affection, and Lin Ranyue huddled her only granddaughter into her embrace, determined that such a clever and sensible granddaughter certainly could not be married off far away!

On the other side, Bai Li, after receiving the message from Gu Yan, looked up with a menacing gaze at Xi Le, who had just come in.

Xi Le immediately straightened up, "My lord, what can I do for you?"

"Your wife went to Landis Star?"

"Ah, yes, she said she missed Yaoyao and went to visit our daughter."

Bai Li looked at him coolly, "If she went to visit her daughter, why did she go preaching to Xiaoyan?"

"Ah!" Xi Le was genuinely shocked. He thought for a moment and said doubtfully, "My lord, that shouldn’t be. Xiaoman even said she hopes you and Miss Gu Yan get married soon. Why would she preach to Miss Gu Yan?"

Bai Li said, "In the future, don’t let her appear before Xiaoyan. Xi Le, if there is a next time, it won’t just be a simple warning."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Xi Le was truly frightened.

Because he knew that he was not Bai Li’s best insectoid, and even before he had done quite a few bad things with Doris.

The main reason he was still in this commanding position as the Chief Commander was because Lord Insect God thought he was still of use.

But replacing him was just a matter of minutes.

It was all the fault of Su Man, this woman who was good for nothing but causing trouble!

After leaving Bai Li’s office, Xi Le was already sweating profusely. Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he immediately took out his light-brain to contact his wife Su Man.

Meanwhile, Su Man was searching all over Landis Star for her daughter, Su Yao.

"This damn girl, where on earth has she gone!" she exclaimed angrily, just as her light-brain rang. Thinking it might be news of her daughter, she was surprised to find that it was actually Xi Le.

"Xi Le, what’s the matter?"

"Are you still on Landis Star?"

"Yes."

"Get your ass back here now!"

After Xi Le had spoken, he hung up the call, leaving Su Man a bit stunned, but certain of one thing: Xi Le was angry.

Right now, Xi Le was very important to her, so Su Man left her search for her daughter immediately, turned around with her entourage, boarded a flyer, and once they reached the port, the spaceship took off, leaving Landis Star.

By the time Su Man hurried back to Xi Le’s side, she was greeted with a slap in the face!

She was dumbfounded!

"Xi Le, why did you hit me?!"

"What did you do on Landis Star?"

"I—I didn’t do anything... I just went to visit my daughter and then I attended Lin Ranyue’s birthday to form a good relationship with them."

Xi Le actually knew what kind of person Su Man was and was also aware of her past dealings with the Su Family members.

He had been willing to let his wife get on good terms with Su Wan and her family, but now it seemed that some of her actions had upset Gu Yan. If Gu Yan was upset, then Lord Insect God was displeased as well.

Finally, Xi Le said coldly, "Pack your things and go back to the Insectoid Planet. Don’t go anywhere else."

"Xi Le!"

Su Man was shocked.

Even though Xi Le had many women, she was his only wife.

Wherever Xi Le went, even to war, he would take her with him.

But this time...

His tone was icy, "Do I need to repeat myself? Go back to the Insectoid Planet, take good care of my children, and that’s all you need to do from now on. Stay out of the Su Family’s way for good. Someone, send her back to the Insectoid Base Star!"

Su Man was dumbstruck.

She didn’t want to go back, to take care of Xi Le’s children!

After all, her own children had grown up—the youngest, Su Yao, was now on Landis Star. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Xi Le was asking her to go back and take care of the children he had with other women!

Despite being unwilling, Su Man dared not defy Xi Le and had no choice but to leave with Xi Le’s subordinates.

Where had she gone wrong?
