Gu Yan wasn’t in a hurry either, primarily because she knew Bai Li was busy. War wasn’t a trivial matter, and if it weren’t for her overwhelming happiness and desire to share this joy, she wouldn’t have sent a ssage to disturb Bai Li.
After waiting for a while, Bai Li’s projection request ca through, and Gu Yan almost instantly clicked confirm.
On the virtual screen, Bai Li was wearing a beige loungewear set, looking gentle and unaggressive with droplets of water still clinging to his hair.
His eyes were half-lowered, hiding the unvanished malice in their depths.
"Xiaoyan, I’ve heard about what happened today. Are you okay?"
"I’m fine, and in fact, I’ve improved!"
Gu Yan had always felt she was the weakest mber of the family, always holding them back whenever sothing happened.
This ti, she had made progress, and the young girl was very happy.
Seeing Gu Yan’s beautiful smile, the frost in Bai Li’s heart slowly lted, and the malice stemming from the slaughter began to fade away.
If Gu Yan were in front of him at that mont.
Bai Li would surely have embraced the young girl tightly in his arms.
Gu Yan spoke for a while and realized she was the only one talking, with the other party staying silent. Out of curiosity, she said, "Are you busy today? Am I interrupting sothing important?"
"No, can you now control which type of mushroom you produce?"
"I can! But there are restrictions, though I’ll keep trying. If, soday, I can freely produce red and black mushrooms, then I won’t have to worry about danger anymore."
Bai Li watched the young girl’s happy deanor and said, "Actually, you don’t have to protect yourself."
Because I, your parents, your brothers, all those people who love you, will take good care of you.
Although he didn’t say the last part, Gu Yan guessed it.
Her eyes shone brightly as she said, "I know, you all will protect , but I also want to beco strong and protect you all."
Love is mutual.
The loveless Bai Li was gradually experiencing this warm emotion with his sweet girlfriend Gu Yan.
Just like many years ago, the old Commander - both a teacher and a friend - lovingly told him, "Xiaoyin, you will definitely understand love one day."
Bai Li’s lips slowly curled into a smile.
"Xiaoyan, once the war is over, I’ll co to see you on Landis Star."
"Mhm!"
Gu Yan didn’t want to keep Bai Li for too long. After chatting reluctantly for a few more sentences, she then ended the call.
Since Xu Wei’an had still not woken up, Gu Yan had been keeping Vivian company all day long.
Actually, she was still cautiously observing Vivian from ti to ti.
Vivian said without a word, "Xiaoyan, if you have sothing to say, just tell directly, no need to hesitate like this."
"I’m just looking for similarities and differences between you now and before. What does soul fusion feel like?"
"..."
Gu Yan smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, on one hand I was curious, and on the other hand, my little brother, who is very devoted to experintal research, was curious too. It was he who used a latest-model flying machine as a gift, asking to help find out more about it."
Vivian was sowhat speechless as she said, "You don’t seem like soone who lacks flying machines."
"Hmm, I don’t, so actually, I wanted to help out my little brother. You have no idea—if there’s any problem, he becos so anxious that he can’t sleep until he figures it out."
Otherwise, he just had to dissect it to see what secrets lay inside.
Gu Yan didn’t say the last sentence out loud, afraid it might frighten Vivian.
Vivian candidly expressed, "The feeling of soul fusion is very uncomfortable, there isn’t a spot on my body that doesn’t ache. It feels like soone is tearing my brain apart, but at the sa ti, it’s like trying to forcefully rge things that are fundantally incompatible."
Gu Yan’s eyes widened in shock.
In the end, Vivian spread her hands helplessly, "I can’t quite describe it, but I think if soone had a weaker will, they might not be able to endure it and would collapse to the point of wanting to bash their head against the wall."
"So that’s how it is..." Gu Yan looked worriedly at Xu Wei’an, who was still in a coma.
Vivian’s gaze also shifted in that direction.
She said, "That useless girl will definitely wake up. When she does, she can have the na Vivian, and then I’ll continue living under the na Xu Wei’an."
With my na, I exchange your life.
Gu Yan stood frozen, suddenly feeling very envious. No matter what, Vivian and Xu Wei’an had beco bound by a life-and-death relationship, and their friendship was definitely deeper than anyone else’s.
Vivian turned to Gu Yan, who had remained silent, and said, "Gu Yan, I still want to thank you, even though our previous generation had grievances, you still chose to help , and your family, they have taken us in and helped us until now, I really appreciate it a lot."
"Don’t ntion it, I’ve said before that I consider you a friend. As for my family... as long as you and your mother haven’t done anything wrong, they won’t lump you together with Lucifer. Vivian, once Xu Wei’an wakes up, what are your plans?"
Gu Yan didn’t want to keep bringing up the topic of that Star Thief, Lucifer, worrying it might upset Vivian.
Vivian could feel Gu Yan’s kindness and gentleness, and she followed the lead of her conversation, "Once Xu Wei’an gets healthier, we will all go to Empire University together. She will take on the identity of Vivian, and then I will go back to take the entrance exam again. At that ti, Gu Yan, I might still need your help."
"No problem! You should rest too. There are household robots taking care of Xu Wei’an. You can’t keep staying up either."
"I’m fine."
"Well, okay then, I’m heading back to my room. Call if you need anything."
"Okay."
After Gu Yan left the guest room, she walked briskly towards her own room.
In the room next door, Su Wan sat there, looking at Julia who was struggling to get out of bed, and said, "Alright, alright, Vivian is fine, Xu Wei’an hasn’t woken up yet, but there’s no need for you to worry, just lie down comfortably. Although your recovery capabilities are impressive, it’s still best to be careful."
"I really hope Xu Wei’an wakes up."
"She will, because good people always get rewarded."
Julia shook her head, "Speaking of good people, Su Wan, you are the truly good one here! You could have completely ignored us mother and daughter."
"Objectively speaking, indeed I shouldn’t have gotten involved with you. But, fate works in mysterious ways sotis. Look, initially my son had a soft spot for Vivian, and then Xiaoyan beca good friends with Vivian."
"The main reason I helped you is that you and your daughter, unlike Lucifer. Of course, I still despise Lucifer, and that won’t change. Unless sothing unexpected happens, he will spend his life in Interstellar Prison."
Julia’s eyes reddened.
But she nodded anyway, "I know, he got what he deserved. However, he has always been good to and Vivian. Su Wan, in the future, when you are sure he poses no threat, could you let see him? Even if just to speak a few minutes!"
