"It’s not necessarily so; everyone has weaknesses, and I think Doris does too,"
"Hmm."
Lin Ranyue asked about the child’s condition, and the mother and daughter chatted as normal, but after Su Wan left, Lin Ranyue turned to her husband Gu Lei with grave concern, "Xiaolei, do you know if sothing big is about to happen?"
"Are you talking about the military departnt? Commander Gu has not returned, and Gu Yuan is just overseeing the departnt for now. I heard that there are suggestions to elect a new Chief Commander."
Lin Ranyue: "No wonder Xiaowan seed so preoccupied! How can these people be like this? Commander Gu will certainly return safely!"
Gu Lei peeled a grape and placed it to Lin Ranyue’s lips, "Power is too great, so so people do not hope for Commander Gu to co back safely."
"How can this be! Have these people forgotten who has protected the Empire Planet ti and again?"
"They rember as long as Commander Gu is here. But the mont they think Commander Gu might not return, they start thinking about replacing him."
Lin Ranyue felt deeply troubled and leaned on her husband’s shoulder with a sigh, "No wonder Xiaowan has been putting on a brave face. Ah, I saw so many people online making wishes for Commander Gu’s return—I thought everyone felt that way."
"Right, wherever you go, there are always so people who, for their own purposes, do things that leave others speechless. But you shouldn’t worry too much, you have to believe in His Majesty. His Majesty respects his uncle the most."
"Hmm, I heard from Xiaowan that she has sent the children to the Imperial Palace. It seems like soone is after them."
"Don’t worry, Xiaowan is a smart kid and her Beast Transformation Level is high. Besides, Little Gu Chen’s Beast Transformation Level is also there; they won’t be easily bullied."
Even without Gu Jue, they would not be bullied.
Lin Ranyue nodded. In theory, that was the case, but as a mother, she was of course still worried for her daughter.
In fact, Su Wan knew when she left her mother’s house that they might sense sothing amiss. Despite that, she still wanted to see her mother more before leaving.
In case she couldn’t see her again...
During the day at the military departnt, Su Wan had quietly started transferring so of her duties and authority to Pandora and Sheng An. One had strong fighting power and the other was calm and smart. Either of them could be competent enough to beco the next captain.
They also complented each other.
When Su Wan arrived at the office, she saw, from a distance, a pair of large white wings and was montarily stunned since her Ajue also had such beautiful large wings.
Only when she got closer did she realize it was Zhuo Yun.
Today, Zhuo Yun wasn’t dressed as a beautiful woman. He seed to be telling a joke to Sheng An, his expressions vivid and even making the normally calm and composed Sheng An chuckle.
Previously, when the Universe Alliance Army attacked the Insectoid Base, Zhuo Yun had accompanied the Yuanyi Planet Starship Fleet, and although he wasn’t there at the scene, he knew better than anyone that they couldn’t have destroyed the Insectoid lair without Commander Gu leading the team.
Upon seeing Su Wan enter, Zhuo Yun grinned and bead, "Su Wan! Hey, I haven’t seen Xiaochen for a long ti. Is he still studying in the Imperial Palace?"
"Yes. Did you co to the military departnt for sothing today?"
Zhuo Yun looked at Sheng An and then smiled, "A little personal matter, and since it’s been a while since I visited Aunt Hua, I thought I’d go see her after Sheng An finishes work and go ho with her."
Su Wan looked at Sheng An and noticed that she gave an involuntary twitch at the corner of her mouth.
However, this was Sheng An’s own personal matter, and she would have to confront it eventually.
Su Wan smiled and didn’t say much, instead getting started with her busy work.
Zhuo Yun really waited until Sheng An finished work, faithfully following behind her. Sheng An, at a loss for words, said, "You could have gone to my place first on your own."
"Aunt Hua said she was visiting a friend’s house, and there’s no one at your ho."
"I can tell you the code to get in."
Zhuo Yun was startled, then said with a bit of embarrassnt, "That wouldn’t be proper. We’re not married, and knowing the code to your house..."
Sheng An felt a vein throbbing on her forehead. She said sternly, "Zhuo Yun, can you please stop joking around? I’ve also told my mother that I don’t want to get married for now, and I don’t have any feelings for you."
"I know, Aunt Hua told ," Zhuo Yun put his hands behind his head, his white wings fluttering, "We really aren’t familiar with each other. In fact, when I first heard about this marriage arrangent from my parents, I scoffed at it."
"Then why do you still co to see ?"
Zhuo Yun looked at Sheng An, his eyes filled with a warm glow, "Of course, because it was love at first sight."
Sheng An: "Haha."
"Okay, okay, love at first sight is just a joke, that’s really too much of a long shot. But I won’t deny having a bit of a crush on you and wanting to continue getting to know you. Since I plan to get married one day, and now I have this crush on you, why can’t I keep getting to know you?"
His argunt sounded so reasonable that Sheng An was almost left speechless.
Besides, he had always maintained a gentleman’s distance, saying they were just friends for now, advancing and retreating appropriately. This ti, he indeed ca to visit her mother, Hua Yueran.
Sheng An couldn’t find a reason to refuse.
In the end, she said, "Let’s be friends for now. Whatever happens in the future, we’ll talk about that later. Let’s not bring up any matter of a marriage arrangent."
"Sure. By the way, Sheng An, when you have ti, let’s spar in PK. I’ll teach you how the Winged Clan fights."
"Sure."
Actually, when chatting with Zhuo Yun, Sheng An felt quite at ease; she didn’t mind becoming friends with soone like him.
The two of them talked about cha fighting and hit it off well. When they arrived at the entrance to Sheng An’s apartnt, they saw soone appear before them.
Sheng Le glared fiercely at Zhuo Yun, "What are you doing here?"
Zhuo Yun was still smiling amiably as he said, "I ca to visit Aunt Hua."
Sheng Le’s hostility lessened a little, "Oh."
Sheng An glanced at them, noticed that both seed normal, and thought nothing more of it; she turned to open the door and went inside.
anwhile, Zhuo Yun walked side by side with Sheng Le and whispered, "You like Sheng An, don’t you?"
Sheng Le’s expression instantly stiffened, and he glared at Zhuo Yun like a bristling animal.
Zhuo Yun said with a smile, "You have good taste; she is indeed an excellent Interstellar Warrior."
Sheng Le was sowhat puzzled. Was this guy really his romantic rival? Since when does a rival openly praise soone for being an excellent Interstellar Warrior?
