Mu Feng wondered if he’d believe him.
However, as soon as he left, Mu Da imdiately called over his son who was engrossed in reading and cautiously asked, "Mu Ke, you don’t have any, um, ulterior motives regarding Gu Yan, do you?"
Mu Ke was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly realized what was happening. He said with a cry and a laugh, "Dad, don’t overthink it. To , Gu Yan is just a junior with shared interests. We do get along well when it cos to studying Ancient Earth’s culture, but that’s all there is to it, nothing more. How should I put it, she’s great, but I’ve never thought about her in a romantic way."
Mu Da sighed in relief, "That’s good."
**
Ji Mu returned to his dorm and stealthily reported the day’s events in great detail to Bai Li.
He even secretly took so photos, not sparing Mu Feng who appeared later.
At the end, Ji Mu concluded in his ssage: Those with the surna Mu are definitely not good people!
After sending off his string of ssages, Ji Mu wondered why the other party hadn’t replied for such a long ti.
He looked down in puzzlent.
His handso face turned pale instantly!
Crap! How did he send all the ssages to Gu Yan?
At that mont, in the residence of Commander Gu, Gu Yan was sowhat speechlessly reading through Ji Mu’s nurous ssages.
Xiaofu comnted from the side, "This silly butterfly must have sent the ssages to the wrong person."
The next instant, Gu Yan saw ssage after ssage being retracted by Ji Mu from the light brain’s information interface.
Gu Yan: "..."
She rubbed her forehead, slightly speechless. If things went as expected, Ji Mu intended to send these ssages detailing her activities for the day... to Bai Li, right?
Gu Yan didn’t question Ji Mu, as it was an obvious fact. She just didn’t understand, "Why did Ji Mu want to report these things to Bai Li? Or rather, is this what Bai Li wanted to know?"
Xiaofu: "Master, I searched the data and ca to a conclusion: possessiveness. Bai Li’s behavior is similar to the possessiveness that people in love feel towards their partners, not wanting other mbers of the opposite sex to approach their own."
Gu Yan was taken aback, her cheeks reddening in an instant, "What are you talking about? Bai Li... he doesn’t even want to et my family."
If he really liked her, to the point of not wanting others near her, he wouldn’t have co to the conclusion that eting or not eting her family wasn’t important.
Her heartbeat, which had quickened, slowly cald down. Gu Yan let out a soft sigh, "It’s too troubleso, I don’t want to think about it anymore."
Lately, there were many things that she couldn’t figure out, which slightly bothered Gu Yan. But she was an optimistic and proactive girl, striving to adjust her mindset and positively face tomorrow.
anwhile, Ji Mu, who had been waiting anxiously, wondered if Gu Yan would question him.
But after a full hour without a reply, he thought... had she not seen what he sent? Or did she simply not care about what he had to say?
While relieved, Ji Mu quickly cald down and dutifully sent the ssage he had originally intended for Bai Li again.
This ti he made sure the recipient was correct.
Just as Ji Mu’s ssages were coming in, Bai Li was sitting at a round table, facing the virtual projection of Gu Jue clad in military uniform.
Their first collaboration was a great success, directly downing several vessels from the Universe Alliance and Freya’s fleet.
Suffering such heavy losses in their first battle, perhaps the enemy wouldn’t dare to engage tomorrow.
But whether it was Gu Jue or Bai Li, both agreed that they should not let the enemy off easily.
Both of them were very calm and composed, knowing that if they didn’t make these troublemakers suffer this ti, they would surely cause issues again in the future.
"So that’s settled then, we’ll have everything in place, and launch the second wave of attacks at one in the morning tonight," he said
"No problem."
At that mont, Bai Li’s optical computer started chiming incessantly. Gu Jue looked down, glanced at him, and then said, "Alright, see you in a few hours."
Bai Li nodded calmly, and only after Gu Jue’s virtual image had disappeared did he open the virtual ssage page on his optical computer.
After looking at it for a while, his slender fingers tapped, and all those ssages and photos disappeared.
anwhile, Ji Mu continued to wait but likewise didn’t receive a reply from Bai Li. This made him wonder why one after another, nobody liked replying to his ssages.
However, there was a misunderstanding on Gu Yan’s end, and Ji Mu didn’t dare to ask proactively.
And as for Bai Li... he was worried about making the big shot angry, so he dared not say more.
In the end... he suffered another sleepless night!
The next day, when Gu Yan stumbled upon Ji Mu on campus, he saw the latter with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looking quite pitiful. The beautiful wings that were usually flamboyant were now drooping listlessly.
Gu Yan asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Do you need to go to the dical room?"
"No need, I just didn’t rest well last night." Ji Mu looked carefully and saw that there were only female students around Gu Yan, which eased his mind. He yawned and said, "I’m off to class now, bye for now."
"Alright, goodbye."
At that mont, Molly and her roommate were passing by. Thinking that Gu Yan and Vivian had split up, she frequently made overtures to Gu Yan, trying to beco his friend.
But no matter what she tried, Gu Yan just wouldn’t give her the ti of day.
This made her quite frustrated.
She often cursed Gu Yan behind his back, but only ever behind his back—she wouldn’t dare to do it to his face.
Plus, what if one day, Gu Yan suddenly started to see her as a good friend?
Seeing Gu, Yan’s interaction with Ji Mu stirred up a bit of jealousy in Molly. She said, "So people are just born lucky, always surrounded by n vying for their attention!"
Her friend nodded in agreent, "Indeed, there’s not a single girl on Landis Star who wouldn’t envy Gu Yan."
Molly’s eyes shifted as she said, "That’s not necessarily the case. Have you forgotten? The position behind is still vacant. If soone occupies that spot in the future, they will beco the most honorable woman on the entire Landis Star, and even Gu Yan will have to respectfully call her ’Empress Sister-in-law’!"
Her companion was stunned, "You dare to even think about that?"
Molly replied, "What’s wrong with thinking about it? It’s not illegal. And who knows, it might just co true one day."
The two of them walked away, murmuring to each other.
After they had gone far, Vivian, holding her books, ca out from around the corner. Her face showed an unhealthy pallor, and she occasionally coughed lightly.
Her whole body had slimd down considerably. Her long ears, which were usually covered in white fuzz, now seed a bit dull in color.
Ever since the last incident, having been forced to distance herself from the Gu siblings, Vivian had truly fallen ill.
And her illness had not yet fully recovered.
Now, every ti her emotions fluctuated, the disease tended to worsen, and she felt a stifling pressure in her chest, as if she might not be able to catch her breath at any mont...
