"Big brother, what’s wrong?"
"Oh, nothing. That’s good, we’ll wait until the war is over," Gu Chen responded quickly, realising that if his sister said that, Bai Li must have ntioned sothing to her.
I didn’t see that coming. The old insectoid is moving fast!
However, Gu Chen ant that it was inappropriate to proceed now, in the midst of war. It was not that they distrusted the Plantn, but they were worried that people from the Universe Alliance might take the opportunity to infiltrate the Plantman Star, which could then beco dangerous for Xiaoyan.
Once the decision was made, Gu Chen conveyed it to Jiang Shang.
Jiang Shang said with a smile, "That’s understandable, as we are in the midst of a war. It is not safe."
"Yes, we’ll discuss the specifics after the war is over."
"Okay."
After ending the communication, Jiang Shang turned back to the council mbers seated around the round table and relayed Gu Chen’s words once more.
One of the council mbers frowned, "Wait until the war is over—when will that be? I’ve heard that the little princess already has an insectoid boyfriend. If these two spend more ti together, it’s even less likely they will part ways."
"Plantn should be with Plantn. First, Gu Yan is very outstanding, and second, if she could marry into our star, it would benefit the future developnt of our Plantn even more."
They knew about the strength of Landis Star, and the people of Landis Star were worth associating with. They did not wantonly kill the innocent, nor did they bully the weak.
The Plantn had long known about Gu Yan’s situation. Upon getting to know her, they felt even more that Gu Yan was an excellent Plantman. In tis when Plantman power was very weak, they naturally yearned for such an outstanding individual of their kind and wanted to be close to her.
Jiang Shang did not speak.
Another council mber said, "Jiang Huai is one of the most outstanding amongst our younger generation. How well does Gu Yan get along with him?"
Previously, Jiang Huai and a few young Plantn had gone to study at Landis Empire University. Since Empire University was now on holiday, they had all returned.
Jiang Shang raised his head and spoke to the light-brain, "Xiaohuai, co to the conference room."
"Yes, Father."
Jiang Huai had a very good temperant and was smart. In fact, when he was sent to Landis Star, it was with great hope that Gu Yan would take a likint to him and that he could marry her and bring her back.
Yet, when Jiang Huai arrived at Empire University, he had already heard that Gu Yan had a boyfriend.
Soon after, Jiang Huai arrived. He greeted the council uncles and then took a seat at the end of the table.
Jiang Shang spoke, "Xiaohuai, we asked you here to talk about how well you got along with Gu Yan on Landis Star."
"We got along very well. Gu Yan is a girl with a nice personality and is also very smart."
An impatient council mber asked, "Does she like you?"
"As a friend, she probably does."
"What do you an?"
Jiang Huai answered calmly, "Because Gu Yan already has a boyfriend, for people of the opposite sex who aren’t relatives, we are just ordinary friends. Although we haven’t known each other for long, we Plantn easily develop a good feeling for one another, so we get along quite happily."
"This is far from enough. She will definitely not marry you like this. What to do, how can we get Gu Yan to marry you?"
Jiang Huai didn’t speak.
A group of people discussed for half a day. So even suggested finding a way to get rid of that Insectoid nad Bai Li. Others said they could wait for Gu Yan to travel to their planet and try to perform well to win her favor.
So were more direct, "Having her travel here is the best opportunity to impress her, but now they are saying they’re waiting until the war ends. But what if, after the war ends, that Insectoid cos to Landis Star with Gu Yan?"
"Let him co, are we afraid of an Insectoid?"
In the end, they couldn’t co to a conclusion. After the eting was dismissed, Jiang Huai stayed behind. After everyone else left, only he and his father remained in the conference room.
Jiang Shang asked, "Do you have sothing to say?"
Jiang Huai: "Father, I had several contacts with the Gu Family on Landis Star and found that they are very open-minded about Gu Yan’s marriage. As long as she likes him, they will not object. That’s why they agreed to let Gu Yan date that Insectoid."
"Keep talking."
"So the key lies in Gu Yan’s will, and she has already taken a liking to that Insectoid. There are only two ways for us to take her hand in marriage."
"What are they?"
"First, as an uncle earlier suggested, get rid of that Insectoid without anyone noticing. Gu Yan will be heartbroken, and then I will find the opportunity to get close to her, to comfort her. The other way... would be to make Gu Yan fall in love with , so that she can’t live without , while that Insectoid is not around, and only her mother is at ho in the Gu Family," Jiang Huai said.
Jiang Shang slowly raised his head, "You an, using so special thods?"
Jiang Huai nodded.
Jiang Shang was weighing the options, considering whether or not this approach might backfire.
He didn’t rush to a conclusion, but instead lifted his head and said, "Xiaohuai, do you like Gu Yan? Tell your father, think only of your personal feelings without considering the position of the Plantman Star."
"Of course, I like her. It’s very hard not to. Among all the Plantman girls I’ve t, she’s the most unique. She’s beautiful, powerful, yet still tender and lovely. And I can feel that she’s willing to interact with . Maybe it’s because I appeared too late that that Insectoid had the chance."
Jiang Huai was quite fond of Gu Yan. Initially having never t her in person, he had only seen her in those video recordings and was moved by her.
In that video clip, Gu Yan was still young, only twelve or thirteen, a pretty little girl with soft features, who, startled by a sudden fright, sprouted a small white mushroom on her head, which then fell to the ground.
Previously, Jiang Huai thought she was just a sweet and delicate princess, but later he realized that to protect her friend, the soft and adorable princess could also beco brave.
So, at that mont, he grew even fonder of her.
It was only because Gu Yan already had a boyfriend that he always maintained a distance, cleverly concealing his feelings.
Even in front of that Insectoid, it was so.
After listening to him, Jiang Shang patted his shoulder and finally said, "Then good, for public and private reasons, it benefits us. So, let’s make an effort to win Gu Yan over!"
"But Father, what if this goes wrong and we offend the Gu Family? They all dote on Gu Yan very much, and if she is humiliated, they definitely will not let off those who bullied her," Jiang Huai said.
"What we’re doing is for Gu Yan’s good too. She’s a Plantman, naturally, it’s better for her to be with us Plantman. Actually... if Gu Yan is willing to marry you, I would even be willing to give her the position of Plantman leader," Jiang Shang said.
"Father?!"
