However, Gu Jue was considerate of his wife’s body and did not cling to the very end. He just wanted to be especially close to her at all tis, even if it was only kissing her fish scales, he felt extrely happy.
Fortunately, she had turned into a rmaid tail, for otherwise Su Wan’s toes would have curled up. After they had both cald down, she suddenly felt sothing under the blanket.
"Ajue, turn on the light and have a look."
"Hmm?"
The dim light slowly brightened, and Su Wan looked at the golden fish scale in her palm. She was stunned for a few seconds, then looked at Gu Jue with a grievous expression.
Gu Jue hastily said, "It wasn’t who made it fall off."
Su Wan: "Could it be because I’m getting old? So, I’m starting to lose scales?"
Gu Jue: "..."
Just kidding, most beastn can live to nearly two hundred years old. Su Wan’s current age was absolutely youthful among beastn, really.
But seeing the sorrowful expression on his delicate wife’s face, Gu Jue also imdiately got serious, and he contacted Lan Yu in the middle of the night.
Lan Yu was conducting experints and had not slept all night. He had just managed to get into bed when he was woken up by the light computer’s alert tone.
He imdiately cursed, "Who is it, disturbing people’s rest in the middle of the night? Are they sick or sothing, would they like to get cut open or what... Oh, it’s Commander Gu calling."
After Lan Yu answered the call, he curiously asked, "Commander Gu, what do you need at this late hour?"
"Lan Yu, when do rmaids usually lose scales?"
"From childhood to adulthood, while replacing scales, or when heavily injured. But occasionally losing one or two scales is no big deal. Why, did Xiaowan lose scales?! How many did she lose?? Can you give a couple to study?"
Hearing the other party’s very excited voice, Gu Jue ruthlessly cut off the connection. Literally. His wife’s scales, just hand them out to soone?
But out of concern, Gu Jue went to ask Ouyang Qing and Yin Yue as well. After making the rounds, he turned back to see Su Wan eagerly looking at him.
Gu Jue: "Xiaowan, don’t worry, losing just one scale is fine."
Su Wan: "I can’t see the back, Ajue, can you help check where it fell off from?"
"Okay."
So, after the end of the Manic-Depressive Period, the young couple spent practically the whole night studying rmaid scales until the break of dawn. Lying in Gu Jue’s arms, Su Wan said, "Ajue, could this scale be the rmaid’s Wishing Scale?"
Su Wan had once accidentally obtained Queen Gaia’s Wishing Scale, which enabled her to successfully complete the acquired rmaid evolution. Although the rmaid Clan said that the scale was not so omnipotent, it still carried beautiful wishes.
And then, under Gu Jue’s eagerly expectant gaze, Su Wan said, "Then I’ll give this fish scale to Xiaoyan! May it protect her and ensure she grows up safe and healthy!"
Other parents might hope that their children will be successful and achieve great things in the future.
But as the family of Commander Gu, whose total strength already ranked first in the Universe Alliance, Su Wan’s hopes for her children were very simple: she wanted them to be healthy and safe.
Gu Jue actually felt a bit disappointed because his Wanwan’s first rmaid Wishing Scale was not given to him.
However, since it was for his daughter, he decided to let it go, no longer feeling jealous.
But in the ti that followed, Gu Jue was always quietly waiting for his sweet wife to shed another rmaid scale, which should be ant for him next ti, right?
Once Su Wan’s health improved a bit, she took the ti to visit the Sanxing District to see her grandfather.
During her absence, the old man was also extrely worried and had to keep the Su Family restaurant going. Su Wan brought a lot of things with her, including the ginseng she had been cultivating.
Grandma ira hurriedly accepted the gifts, smiling as she said, "Xiaowan, look at you. If you co to visit, just co, why bring things specifically?"
Su Wan: "These are all good for one’s health. Later, you can chop them up to make soup or porridge, either is good."
"Alright, alright. Oh right, how are the kids doing?"
"They’re all fine. Xiaochen has gone to the Imperial Palace to study, and the other two little ones are still young. When they are a bit older, I’ll bring them to see you."
"Good, good." ira was a very gentle person, and she liked Su Wan a lot, so the two of them enjoyed a delightful conversation.
However, Old Master Su was sowhat silent by the side.
ira gave Su Wan a look and then stepped out, leaving the living room to the pair of grandfather and granddaughter.
Su Wan: "Grandpa, what’s wrong?"
Old Master Su sighed deeply. "Before, I never thought you would go through so many dangers. Xiaowan, if it really doesn’t work out, stop being an Interstellar Warrior in the military. Look at you, the work of Commander Gu is dangerous, and your work is also dangerous. You’re away for so long, what about the children?"
Su Wan topped up the water in her grandfather’s teacup, smiling as she said, "Grandpa, in fact, everything has its risks. Even frying vegetables can get you burnt by oil."
"But you’re right, Grandpa, the children are still young. In the future, I will take out more ti to spend with them."
Old Master Su looked at the smile on his granddaughter’s face and sighed. "Alright, anyway, just rember, no matter what you do, your family is always behind you, supporting you."
"Mm, thank you, Grandpa. I’ve recovered now, and when I get back, I can take care of the restaurant matters for you."
Speaking of the restaurant, Old Master Su said, "During this period, Xiaoni, that boy, has really grown up a bit. He often runs to the restaurant to help out."
Su Wan: "Grandpa, you still say you don’t spoil him. He owns shares in the Su Family restaurant, so of course, he should contribute."
"Yes, you were too capable before, never giving him a chance. However, have your relationships eased sowhat?"
Su Wan: "Let nature take its course."
Actually, things had already improved a lot from the beginning, but what the future would hold, that was naturally a matter for later.
Su Wan stayed until evening, and only when Gu Jue ca to pick her up in the aircraft did she leave.
As she was leaving, she looked back to see her grandfather and Grandma ira standing hand in hand on the landing pad, watching their aircraft take off.
Gu Jue ca over, wrapping his arms around her, "Your grandpa seems to be in good shape; you don’t need to worry anymore."
"Mm, he’s just a bit worried about . By the way, Ajue, when we move to the Landis Star, I would like to live closer to Grandpa’s and Grandad’s houses. Is that okay?"
"Of course, it’s okay."
Su Wan turned around, embraced Gu Jue, and nestled in his arms, whispering, "I hope there will never be wars again, and that everyone can live and work in peace and happiness."
