Chapter 429: Chapter 429: He Gives Wanwan a Princess Carry
Su Wan’s eyebrows quirked slightly.
She finally understood why Cecilia had preferred to go to jail rather than not beat up that scumbag.
He was really worthless.
Su Wan had been busy for most of the day, and she was truly tired. More importantly, she was hungry again.
After the dishes were served, Su Wan couldn’t wait to start eating, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Eat more, Xiaowan!
There’s no problem with Xiaowan eating.
In contrast, the little wolf-eared baby, holding a small glass tank, looked very serious and solemn.
It seemed he really needed to start earning money.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to afford a sister with such an appetite in the future!
The mermaid baby: ...
When they were almost done eating, the door of the private room suddenly opened.
Gu Jue, dressed in a crisp military uniform, walked in from the outside.
Su Wan had forbidden Gu Jue from coming to the restaurant opening and the Food God live broadcast.
Gu Jue was already too busy every day.
There were a ton of matters to handle at the military department.
Moreover, it seemed that the Insectoids were starting to stir recently.
But for Gu Jue, his little wife didn’t let him come support the opening.
She didn’t say, however, that he couldn’t come to pick her up.
Previously, the aloof War God Commander was known for being cold and distant.
Not just because he was accustomed to wearing a mask, but mainly because when he led his fleet to capture Star Thieves and kill Insect Beasts, he was incredibly decisive and efficient.
Even now, any Star Thief who saw Gu Jue couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear in their hearts.
Yet, such a man, after getting off work, drove his flyer to the Eleventh District to pick up his wife and bring her home.
Oh, and to pick up their son as well.
Lin Ranyue felt even better seeing Commander Gu treat Xiaowan so well.
She said, "You’re here, Commander Gu. Have you eaten? Do you want to eat something here?"
Lan Ruochen and Lan Ruojin, hearing that Gu Jue had arrived, also hurried over.
For a moment, the private room was a bit crowded and bustling with noise.
But Su Wan, after having her fill of food and drink, felt a little sleepy.
Little Gu Chen, worried his mother was too sleepy, quickly placed the small octopus tank next to him and moved his chair closer to her.
That way, if his mother fell asleep from exhaustion, she would lean on him.
She wouldn’t fall to the ground.
Seeing this, Gu Jue, despite not having eaten yet, still said, "No need, Wanwan is sleepy. We should go home first."
Then, Gu Jue strode over to Su Wan.
One arm wrapping around her back, another passing under her legs... and just like that, he lifted her up in a princess carry!
The little wolf-eared baby let out a sigh, then picked up the little fish tank he had put aside.
The pink little octopus inside blew a black bubble in silence.
It was just a stand-in for a pet.
After the family of three left, the noise in the room resumed.
Luo Jina clicked her tongue in admiration, "Commander Gu really treats Xiaowan well."
Alex was drinking water when he set down his glass, "I can lift you in a princess carry too!"
Luo Jina: ...
Is it about the princess carry?
Tsk! She hoped this lack of intelligence wouldn’t be passed on to her own baby!
Meanwhile, Sheng Le watched his two idols walk away slowly, his eyes full of envy.
He turned back to look at Sheng An, who was sitting there, looking down at his light-brain...
He could probably lift his sister, too, right?
On the other side, Lan Ruochen and the others diligently escorted Gu Jue’s family onto the flyer.
Su Wan nestled on the soft sofa and rubbed her eyes, saying, "Oh, have they come out already? I still need to say a few words to them."
After all, I am the boss.
Just opened for business, need to give the employees some encouragement and such.
Gu Jue’s lips curled slightly, and a touch of tenderness flickered in his handsome eyes.
He said, "No need to say anything. Your doing this live broadcast is the biggest encouragement for the branch."
It wasn’t exactly a lie, either.
With Su Wan’s status and the quality of the Su Family’s restaurant dishes, which had always been the tastiest in the entire Federal Empire.
They had both the hardware and the software.
The live broadcast today had a massive online audience, too!
If with all that, the Eleventh District branch still doesn’t make money.
Su Wan said, "Then it’ll mean Lan Ruojin didn’t work hard enough. By that time, I’ll fire him from his manager position!"
Speaking of Lan Ruojin, Su Wan remembered something that happened today.
She said, "Ajue, you wouldn’t believe it, Lan Ruojin went all out. Today, his ex-girlfriend alone filled up two entire tables!"
"Oh, and another thing—I discovered a secret. Xiaole seems to have some different feelings for Xiao’an."
"And there’s more..."
Gu Jue and Little Gu Chen, a big and a small from the Wolf Clan beastmen, retracted their claws and the fierceness from their eyes at this moment.
They quietly listened to Su Wan talking.
A warm and peaceful atmosphere wafted through the spacecraft.

After finishing her work, Sheng An also had to return to the First Star District.
After graduation, she used the money she had saved to buy a small apartment of over eighty square meters there.
One room was for resting, and the other was transformed into a workout room.
She took Luo Jina’s family spacecraft back, but Sheng Le followed along too.
Sheng Le said to Luo Jina with a smile, "Jina, mind if I hitch a ride on your family’s spacecraft?"
Luo Jina waved her hand generously, "That’s no big deal, hitch away."
Yet, Sheng An turned to look at him, "Isn’t school still out? Are you reporting to the First Branch?"
Sheng Le could only nod.
Sheng An didn’t think much of it and then lowered her eyes to look at her light computer.
There was a message from Zhuo Yun.
Zhuo Yun said he had finished his work and wanted to invite Sheng An to go back to Yuanyi Planet with him.
Now that she was sure that person was indeed her biological mother, Sheng An knew she definitely had to go.
Because that’s probably what would finally make her feel completely fulfilled regarding familial bonds.
However, before that, she needed to drop Lele off at school.
Once the spacecraft arrived in the First Star District, Sheng An said goodbye to the Luo Jina couple. As she turned around, she found Sheng Le following behind her.
Curious, she asked, "Aren’t you going to the First Branch?"
Sheng Le replied, "Today, it’s too late already, sis. Let me stay at your apartment for now."
Since Sheng Le had stayed in Sheng An’s apartment before, she didn’t give it much thought and just nodded. The two of them then walked slowly along the streets.
Space corridors crisscrossed overhead, with spacecraft flying by from time to time.
But the streets for pedestrians were utterly peaceful.
Sheng Le seemed hesitant to speak but dared not ask what was on his mind.
Then, he heard Sheng An say, "In a couple of days, I’m planning to make a trip to Yuanyi Planet, right after you start school."
Sheng Le stumbled.
He asked nervously, "How long will you be gone for? Whom are you going to see? Who will you go with?"
Sheng An frowned, "Lele, why are you so anxious? You know about this, right? My family is over there."
Even if so much time had passed.
And Sheng An had no plans to change her current life.
But she knew she had to go and see for herself.
After struggling for a while, Sheng Le finally said, "Sis, how about I accompany you?"
What if his sister went to Yuanyi Planet and never came back! QAQ!
