Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night-Chapter 770 Did You Beat Him Up?

Gu Yan felt strange recently, as if she couldn’t help but sprout mushrooms.

She went to the medical office for a check-up but found nothing unusual, prompting the doctor to suggest, "If you’re not reassured, just go to the medical center for a full body examination."

"Alright, I will."

In her heart, Gu Yan felt a looming unease.

Although she didn’t have any sixth sense, she believed that her body wouldn’t have issues without reason.

Since it happened to be the weekend, she scheduled a full body check-up at the medical center for the following Monday.

Su Wan noticed that her daughter seemed uneasy.

"I’ll accompany you to the medical center on Monday, and let your Uncle Qingyu and the others give you a thorough examination," she said.

"Mom, it’s fine. I can go by myself when the time comes."

"That won’t do. I happen to have time anyway."

Although Su Wan had seen the school medical office’s examination results and had used the medical pod at home to check on Xiaoyan, indeed, all of this child’s health metrics were within normal ranges, indicating she was fine.

This situation was so baffling that Su Wan had decided to go to the hospital with her daughter to see what was going on.

After comforting her daughter, Gu Yan returned to her study to deal with her work.

When her work was done, Vermilion Bird’s voice timely announced, "Master, your husband is calling you."

"Connect."

"Yes."

Every time there was a battle, the couple would make it a point to contact each other regularly when separated.

It was precisely during the time Su Wan led people to Ancient Earth and the communication was interrupted that the couple did not contact each other for a long duration.

"Xiaoyan, you’re still working so late. Why not rest?"

"I was waiting for your call," Su Wan said with a faint smile. She rubbed her neck and then looked at the man in the projection. Perhaps because he had just come down from the battlefield and taken a shower, he looked less aggressive and even quite gentle.

Gu Jue was drying his hair with a white towel, frowning.

"Wanwan, something very strange happened today."

"Oh, what happened?"

"Bai Li asked me a weird question."

Su Wan blinked, intrigued. "What did he ask you?"

"He asked how we usually communicate as a couple," Gu Jue was truly irritated. If anyone else had asked such a question, they’d have been hit by now.

Isn’t that just absurd?

The personal communication between any couple is very private, not even shared with other family members, so why would he tell Bai Li, a stranger?

Okay, maybe Bai Li wasn’t exactly a stranger, since he could likely become Gu Jue and Su Wan’s son-in-law in the future.

But this question...

Su Wan hastily asked, "So, you didn’t end up fighting with him, did you?"

Despite the Insect God’s powerful and mysterious abilities, Gu Jue’s Combat Power was also formidable. If the two really fought, no matter who won, it would probably be a narrow and pyrrhic victory.

Gu Jue half-closed his eyes, "Every time I think about Xiaoyan not having broken up with him, I just hold back."

Even if neither would go all out against the other, if one of them got seriously hurt, what would happen to Xiaoyan afterward?

Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Did you ask him why he asked you that question?"

"No,"

Without even lifting a finger, it felt like he had almost exhausted all his primeval strength.

Su Wan couldn’t help but laugh and spend some time appeasing the ruffled Commander, thinking to herself that even after so many years, Ajue had never really changed in her eyes.

"I think he probably didn’t mean any harm. Ajue, have you ever considered that Bai Li is different from us? He has been reincarnated several times but remains quite indifferent to social relationships. Moreover, I’ve asked him, and during his previous reincarnations, he never had a lover."

Gu Jue hummed in acknowledgment.

Su Wan continued, "It means he might not really understand how to communicate with a partner."

"Not a partner! Xiaoyan and he are just dating!" Gu Jue emphasized.

Su Wan nodded, "Right, but even how to date someone might be something Bai Li is unclear about. He cares a lot about Xiaoyan, always adopting a protective stance, and now that they’re boyfriend and girlfriend, the way they communicate might need to change."

Fluffy dog ears on top of Gu Jue’s head twitched slightly.

He said, "Wanwan, are you suggesting that this guy might not know how to communicate with a lover, and so he came to me for advice?"

"That must be it."

"But why me? Isn’t he supposed to be my junior?"

In matters of war, Gu Jue didn’t treat Bai Li as a junior, but as an equal, communicating on the same level about significant issues.

But in personal matters, how dare Bai Li show him lack of respect?

If that was the case, he certainly wouldn’t let Xiaoyan continue dating that old insect god!

After a moment of thought, Su Wan’s lips curved into a smile, "Ajue, do you think it’s possible that he considers our marital relationship to be the best in the entire Universe, and that’s why he wanted to learn from you? After all, it’s something he’d consider from a man’s perspective, and he couldn’t possibly come to ask me, could he?"

Commander Gu’s tightly furrowed brows finally began to relax.

Gu Jue snorted, "He’s got good taste at least!"

"A parents’ love can influence their children. Our strong relationship will serve as a benchmark for our kids once they have their own families, so Commander Gu, you’ll have to love me even more in the future."

Gu Jue was torn between laughter and tears. How did the conversation jump to this all of a sudden?

But he wasn’t opposed to it, rather, he was quite fond of the idea!

"Wanwan, I miss you, but this war will drag on a little longer before it can be completely over. Those chief culprits must be caught."

"I understand, to prevent future troubles. But it means you all will have to continue enduring hardship."

"It is hard, hard because every day I have to miss my Wanwan. Without my big tail, can you even sleep well?"

"..."

If Bai Li could hear their conversation, he would learn firsthand how a man sweet-talks his beloved wife. Of course, his own girlfriend is too shy, and if he were to mimic such thorough affection, he might just scare her into disconnecting on the spot.

Ultimately, Su Wan did not mention her daughter’s abnormality to Gu Jue because it wasn’t fully confirmed yet.

However, after ending the call with her husband, something suddenly occurred to her, and she asked Vermilion Bird to obtain all the abnormal data of Plantmen from Bai Ze.

Because the two planets were on good terms, they had obtained much information related to Plantmen.

Beastmen have their Manic-Depressive Period, but what about Plantmen?

Some habits of Beastmen resemble those of animals, so by analogy, Plantmen resemble certain plants.

For instance, most Plantmen have a very easygoing nature, but that doesn’t rule out exceptions, such as some plants that are inherently poisonous.
