Chapter 355: Chapter 355 Trouble on Mermaid Planet
Someone’s wolf ears drooped slightly.
They looked pitiful.
"But, sister, wasn’t it you who said that, after you evolved into a complete Beastman, your physical ability was considerably, extraordinarily good?"
Su Wan almost bit her own tongue.
She had indeed said this.
More than once.
But was the context then the same as now?!
"Sister..."
The fluffy tail cautiously hooked around Su Wan’s ankle.
The wolf-eared man gazed at her with pleading eyes.
Su Wan quickly surrendered.
What could she do?
Who could resist that fluffy tail, those snowy white wings, and his childlike way of calling her sister?
A night of enchantment.
The next morning, Su Wan got up unusually early.
Then she cheerfully prepared breakfast for her husband and child.
It was Gu Jue who woke up late.
He was still leaning on the bed, looking freshly awakened when Gu Zilan called.
Gu Zilan was shocked to learn his uncle had just woken up!
"Uncle, did you stay up late working on official business last night? Haven’t I told you? You need to take better care of yourself. Even though you’re a Super Beastman, aunt is too, and you’re so much older than her. What if you can’t keep up later..."
Gu Jue’s eyes grew colder as he spoke indifferently, "Gu Zilan."
Gu Zilan: "Hey, uncle, I didn’t mean anything by it, don’t be mad. Getting angry isn’t good for your health as you get older."
Gu Jue: "I’ve decided to spend more time on the Mermaid Planet with Wanwan. There are matters at the military department that you can see to."
Gu Zilan: "..." QAQ
Was his uncle engaging in petty revenge? That was so petty!
He cleared his throat, "Going back to the matter, since you and aunt are going to the Mermaid Planet, you might discuss with them the merging of our two planets."
Mermaids on the Mermaid Planet possess strong reproductive abilities.
Many of their offspring are Beastmen.
But the people of the Mermaid Planet have weak combat capabilities, and it’s also quite difficult for them to become stronger in the short term.
Gu Jue: "What do you mean?"
Gu Zilan: "It’s like organizing a social event between the two planets. I’ve decided to develop a new region in the Federal Empire as the eleventh district, where the water systems will be particularly advanced."
"I will send someone to handle the specifics with you on the Mermaid Planet."
As the ruler of the Federal Empire, Gu Zilan had many things to consider.
Gu Jue trusted him in this regard.
If Zilan had made such a decision, it must hold certain significance.
Meanwhile, Su Wan quickly finished making breakfast.
There was smooth and sweet boat congee, golden fried dumplings and deep-fried dough sticks, little Xiaochen’s favorite egg cakes, some light side dishes, and rice noodle rolls.
During breakfast, Gu Jue brought up the matter with Su Wan.
Su Wan: "I also talked about it with Lan Ruochen and the others last time, about how to enhance the personal combat strength of the Mermaid Planet. However, this is a long-term issue. It probably won’t get finished in two or three years."
Gu Zilan really knows how to manage a planet.
His idea was indeed perfect for the Mermaid Planet.
If the Federal Empire really had a Mermaid District, where Mermaid Beastmen could live freely,
Then, there would certainly be a lot of water-related projects.
Hearing this, Su Wan was looking forward to it!
After eating, the family of three set off, and at the port, they met the person sent by Gu Zilan.
Luo Ji was a secretary officer. Although his surname was Luo, he wasn’t related to Queen Luo Manya.
Coming from humble beginnings, he had risen step by step to the position of the Emperor’s head secretary.
This proved his capability.
Moreover, Luo Ji was very tactful, not disturbing the Commander and his family.
After greeting and bowing, once aboard the spaceship, he kept busy at his own post.
The wolf-eared baby was very excited!
This was his first trip away from home since he was born!
It was the first time he sat in a spaceship, gazing at the vast universe through the glass window.
The little guy clapped his hands excitedly, "Mommy, it’s beautiful!"
Su Wan smiled, "Is it the stars that are beautiful, or is Mommy beautiful?"
The wolf-eared baby didn’t hesitate, "Mommy is beautiful, and then the stars are beautiful!"
The little guy, so young, already knew how to be a charmer.
Unable to resist, Su Wan hugged her son and planted a loud kiss on his forehead.
Gu Jue looked back.
Watching this scene.
His gaze was profound.
Su Wan’s mouth twitched.
Come on, Commander, there are so many people on the spaceship!
Kissing my son is normal, but if I were to hug and kiss you, wouldn’t the people around us laugh?
So, Su Wan declined Gu, the great Commander, with her eyes.
Gu Jue lowered his eyes, seemingly accepting the fact that his little wife would not kiss him.
They didn’t stay in the hall for too long, waiting until little Gu Chen got tired and sleepy.
Su Wan then carried the child, following Gu Jue back to the resting cabin.
The Commander’s resting cabin was naturally the largest and best equipped.
It had all sorts of facilities, even two domestic robots within the room.
It even had a two-bedroom and one living room setup.
Gu Jue, satisfied, carried his son who had fallen asleep into the adjacent small bedroom bed, leaving White Tiger to watch over him.
He then turned back, gesturing to his little wife by pointing at his own mouth corner.
Su Wan pretended not to understand: "What do you mean?"
Gu Jue: "Just now, you kissed your son."
Su Wan: "Oh, but I kissed his forehead."
She tiptoed, then gave Gu, the great Commander’s forehead, a very loud kiss!
After kissing, Su Wan deliberately sighed and said, "Why do I feel like I’m raising two sons?"
Gu Jue: "..."
The little wife was becoming more and more disobedient.
She needed to be disciplined.
As a result, the two of them ended up lying on the bed, and just as Gu Jue was about to unfurl his big wings, suddenly the door was fiercely knocked!
A few minutes later, the door of the resting cabin was opened.
Luo Ji said with a pale face: "Commander, something has happened on Mermaid Planet!"
Gu Jue: "What exactly happened?"
Luo Ji said: "I was just confirming the itinerary again with King Lan Ruochen, and he said that there has been a palace coup over there."
He hesitated for a while, then looked at Su Wan.
Su Wan was curious: "A coup in the Mermaid Imperial Palace? What does that have to do with me?"
Luo Ji shook his head with a complex expression and said: "King Lan Ruochen said that Queen Gaia, their founding queen, has come back."
Su Wan was immediately stunned.
How could this be possible?
For this purpose, Su Wan had specially returned to the Lin Family before and inquired about that elder.
Old Master Lin told her that Gaia had lived to two hundred and thirty years old and had died a natural death.
If Gaia were still alive now, wouldn’t she be several hundred years old?
Gu Jue asked: "Can we still get in touch with Lan Ruochen now?"
Luo Ji shook his head.
But Su Wan felt puzzled, "If it really is Queen Gaia who has returned, then Lan Ruochen shouldn’t use the word ’palace coup’ at all!"
Lan Ruochen and his people were supposed to hand over the throne to Su Wan because of the words left by the queen.
If it were the real queen who had come back.
Then shouldn’t they be overjoyed and directly offer up the throne?
Gu Jue said quietly: "Therefore, this person isn’t Queen Gaia at all!"
