Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Master is not in a hurry, but the system is anxious to death

Gu Jue lifted his head, his eyes sharply fixed on Su Wan, "Who said that?"

Su Wan was taken aback, "Aren’t you looking for

to get a divorce?"

Gu Jue shook his head, "No divorce."

Su Wan fell silent.

The Sword of Damocles finally ca down but missed its mark, leaving Su Wan even more befuddled; she had no idea what Gu Jue was really thinking.

White Tiger ca over with two cups of boiled water, placing one beside Su Wan and one beside Gu Jue.

Watching its master turn a perfectly good day into a life-and-death conversation, it really worried White Tiger to death!

It’s just like the saying goes, "The master isn’t in a hurry, but the system dies of anxiety!"

White Tiger’s electronic eye kept winking at Gu Jue, who frowned: "I didn’t say I wanted boiled water."

White Tiger: "...Master, this is ’the wife sings, the husband follows’!"

Gu Jue: "..."

Su Wan was just drinking water when she heard White Tiger’s words and almost spit it out!

She hurriedly apologized and picked up the napkin beside her to wipe the corner of her mouth, deciding to clarify things.

"Commander Gu, do you an that our marriage is to continue to exist?"

Gu Jue set down his cup and narrowed his eyes at Su Wan, his brows slightly furrowed, appearing a bit displeased.

Su Wan: "..." Did she say sothing wrong?

Gu Jue regarded her for a while before saying, "You don’t want to continue?"

"No, not really."

Su Wan felt that conversing with this big shot was truly vexing.

Please soone take this big shot away; how she missed the fluffy, milky Ajue!

Just then, the light computer on Gu Jue’s wrist beeped, and White Tiger imdiately spoke up, "Master, it’s almost ti for your appointnt with Her Majesty."

"Mhm." Gu Jue stood up, casually picking up his military cap to wear.

Su Wan’s heart leaped for joy. Hey, Gu Jue was going to the Imperial Palace to see Her Majesty, so does that an their eting could be over?

Since the other party doesn’t want a divorce for now, then no divorce it is.

After all, the two of them are like two parallel lines that rarely intersect, and they are essentially just bearing the title of husband and wife.

She wouldn’t be pressured into marriage in the future and could enjoy the freedom of being alone, which was nothing short of perfect!

"Do you want to change into a different outfit?" Gu Jue walked a few steps, then realizing Su Wan wasn’t following, he turned around to see her standing there with a suspicious smile on her lips.

Su Wan was stunned, "Change clothes?"

"Actually, what you’re wearing is fine for going to the Imperial Palace."

Su Wan’s eyes suddenly narrowed, "Commander Gu, do you an to say that you’re taking

to the Imperial Palace?"

"Hmm, Zilan ntioned he’s never t you. It’s a good opportunity for him to see you, and by the way, for him to give you a red envelope."

"..."

Ten minutes later, Su Wan was sitting in Gu Jue’s exclusive aircraft, a cup of juice at her side, still questioning her life until now.

How did it co to this, going to the Imperial Palace?

She turned her head to look at the man seated beside her.

The man had looked tired ever since earlier, lightly resting one hand against his forehead, half-closed eyes, with a cluster of shadows beneath the long lashes.

As the number one Commander of the Interstellar, he must surely be very busy and very tired.

And actually, with his eyes closed, because the aggressiveness seed diminished, he rather resembled Ajue.

At that mont, Gu Jue suddenly opened his eyes. Su Wan was taken aback and quickly took her cup of water to conceal her peeping.

Gu Jue frowned, "Are you afraid of ?"

"No, it’s not fear, it’s respect."

"So, during my Manic-Depressive Period, did you respect

too?"

Su Wan’s hand holding the cup paused, and she tentatively asked, "Do you not rember anything that happened that night?"

"I only rember that it was you who initiated the marriage proposal."

"..."

Looking at her indignant expression, Gu Jue’s heart softened, but his face still held a cool expression.

He said, "I didn’t refuse either."

Feeling sowhat desperate, Su Wan said, "So, Commander Gu, you’re also satisfied with the wedding and don’t plan on leaving

for now, is that it?"

"Hmm."

Regardless, now that Su Wan knew the other party had no imdiate plans for divorce, she realized that once they arrived at the Imperial Palace, she would have to play along with Gu Jue.

She said, "Then let’s maintain our marital status for now. When we are before His Majesty, how would you like

to cooperate with you?"

"Just tell the truth."

"Do I say that I married you out of love at first sight because I was worried about being assigned a husband forcefully?" Su Wan regretted her words as soon as she spoke.

The first part of her sentence was true, but it sounded hurtful.

The second part was also true, but it didn’t sound very dignified.

As expected, Gu Jue’s brow furrowed slightly, and he said, "Just say the second half."

Su Wan: ???

White Tiger, at their side, could hardly bear to listen anymore!

In a particularly considerate manner, it explained, "Mistress, when the ti cos, just directly say you fell in love at first sight, no need to say more."

Su Wan glanced at Gu Jue’s cool profile and thought that made sense.

Saying anything else might indeed damage the imperial family’s dignity.

Thus, with a heart full of unease, Su Wan entered the Imperial Palace of the Federal Empire for the first ti in her life.

Unlike other high-tech buildings, so parts of the Imperial Palace still retained architectural styles from Ancient Earth; however, this was only the exterior. Once inside, it was still walls of high-tech glass and tal.

So people in military uniforms stopped one after another to salute Gu Jue, and Su Wan, following beside him, experienced what it was like to gain respect through association.

Li Rui and Eric, just exiting the Imperial Palace, also saluted Gu Jue, and Su Wan faintly rembered them; they had attended their wedding.

Su Wan nodded to them kindly, and after a mont of thought, Li Rui saluted her as well, "Greetings, Madam."

Eric, startled, also followed with a louder voice, "Greetings, Commander’s wife!"

Su Wan was still not accustod to the title, and her smile faltered.

At that mont, Gu Jue suddenly extended his arm, draping it over her shoulder, and accompanied her inside.

"Don’t be afraid," he said softly.

Su Wan really wanted to say that she wasn’t scared, just a bit surprised.

And could you please walk slower, your long legs are too much for my shorter ones to keep up with!

However, she only muttered these complaints to herself. Fortunately, after a few steps, Gu Jue realized Su Wan was struggling to keep up and slowed his pace.

Soon, they reached a resplendent reception room with crimson leather sofas, pretty patterned carpets, and shelves decorated with porcelain Su Wan had seen on Ancient Earth.

These were extrely precious items!

The Emperor and Empress were already seated in their formal attire, seemingly having been waiting for a while.

Su Wan had seen Queen Luo Manya in interstellar news videos before; Gu Zilan was handso and refined, while the Empress had the sa red curls as her sister.

However, her eyes and expression were gentler, making her seem much more approachable than Luo Jina.

As Su Wan followed Gu Jue into the room, the Imperial couple imdiately stood up. Gu Zilan quickly advanced a few steps, his gaze settling on the military academy uniform Su Wan wore.

"Is she from Empire University?"

"Yes, call her ’Auntie.’"

"..."
