Chapter 461: Chapter 461: I Might Possibly Know Where Ajue Is
Su Wan, in her sleep, was extremely restless and she murmured Gu Jue’s name repeatedly!
And Lin Ranyue, who had rushed over, stayed by her daughter’s bedside the whole time, her eyes reddening when she heard this.
She had just been informed that Commander Gu had met with an accident!
In an effort to completely eliminate the Insect Queen Doris, Gu Jue decisively and the gravely injured Doris vanished into thin air at the same time!
But now, including the couple Gu Zilan, no one dared to tell Su Wan the truth.
Of course, they didn’t dare disturb Su Wan either; she was simply too exhausted. They decided to let her rest well.
The wolf-eared baby lay obediently by the bed, his little chubby hand gripping his mother’s.
Little Gu Chen whispered, "Mommy, don’t worry, Daddy is so powerful, he must be alright! Even though he’s always so fierce with me and fights with me for you, he is still a good daddy, a super powerful daddy!"
He will definitely come back!
Our family will definitely be reunited!
Su Wan slept deeply for two full days and nights, and when she woke up again, she found herself back at home.
Over the years, Su Wan had gradually turned the Commander’s residence into a place that felt like a true home, and now it was eerily quiet.
Even the household robots operated silently, trying their best not to make any noise while they worked.
Su Wan put on a coat and walked outside, passing by the children’s room, she heard voices inside.
Lin Ranyue had been too worried about her daughter these past few days, so she stayed here. It was her idea to bring Xiaowan back home.
There was nothing wrong with Su Wan’s body, she was just too tired, and her superpower was depleted. Resting at home would make her more comfortable.
For these past two days, Little Gu Chen had not gone to the Imperial Palace to study. He spoke softly to Lin Ranyue.
"Grandma, when will daddy come back?"
"I don’t know..."
"Then what do we do when Mommy wakes up and asks where Daddy has gone?" Little Gu Chen frowned, his wolf ears drooping, and he said softly, "Mommy has been calling for Daddy in her sleep, you know."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ranyue felt a surge of discomfort, she extended her hand to embrace the wolf-eared baby in her arms, "Your dad is the War God of our Empire Planet, he definitely won’t have any problems."
"Yes, that’s what I thought too! By the way, Grandma, when can we bring my sister back home?"
Due to the exceptional circumstances, the Mermaid Egg was still left at the medical center, but Ouyang Qing had someone specifically look after it, to ensure that absolutely no mishaps could occur.
With Commander Gu missing and Xiaowan fallen ill, they knew they had to protect the children of Commander Gu and his spouse well.
Lin Ranyue: "Tonight, I’ll contact Ouyang Qing and ask her about the specific situation with the Mermaid Egg."
"Yes yes, I miss my sister."
Standing at the doorway, Su Wan heard their conversation, and her heart softened.
Despite her fears for Gu Jue, who was currently missing, she had to be stronger than anyone else.
Little Gu Chen had a quick reaction, smelling his mother’s presence, he turned his head and saw Su Wan just as she walked in.
"Mommy!" He trotted over, but stopped short in front of her, then reached out his chubby little hands to hug Su Wan’s legs. "You finally woke up!"
With tenderness, Su Wan ruffled her son’s soft hair, realizing that with such events occurring at home, Little Gu Chen, who was more intelligent and sensible than ordinary children, ended up bearing even more burden.
Gently, Su Wan said, "Yes, I’m awake, sorry to make you worry. Mom, have you been at my place these past two days? What about your own home? Xiaoluo is still little."
Lin Ranyue: "It’s fine, Xiaolei took the kids to school. But what about you? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Ouyang Qing said that if you wake up, and there’s any discomfort, to contact her immediately."
Su Wan shook her head, "I feel very good now, there’s no discomfort anywhere, I’m just a bit worried about the status of the mermaid egg."
She still remembered that the heartbeat of the mermaid egg had been abnormal.
Lin Ranyue: "Then you should hurry and communicate with Ouyang Qian, ask about the child’s condition, alright?"
Su Wan nodded.
Ouyang Qing was actually in the middle of a seminar, but when she saw that it was Su Wan calling, she immediately stood up and went out to answer.
"Xiaowan, you’re awake. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"Oh, I’m fine. Are you available now? I want to inquire about the child’s condition."
Ouyang Qing stepped towards the exit and returned to her office, pulling up a stack of documents. She said, "Xiaowan, there are two children inside the mermaid egg, one of the embryos is developing normally, just like a mermaid fry. The other one... Xiaowan, have you heard of Plantmen?"
At first, to adapt to the universe’s environment, humans evolved into Beastmen, and later, Insectoids appeared.
The environment was changing, evolution was proceeding, and it was all a matter of survival of the fittest.
Plantmen, huh...
Su Wan: "I haven’t heard of it, does it mean the embryo already has traces of plant life?"
Ouyang Qing: "Mushrooms."
"..."
As expected, it was because of that time when Su Wan was on a mission in Landis City and encountered Little Mushroom, but...
Ouyang Qing continued, "Xiaowan, don’t worry, both children are developing well. After observing for another couple of days, you can bring them back home."
"Alright, good."
After Su Wan put down her light computer, she asked, "Vermilion Bird, has there been any signal from White Tiger yet?"
Vermilion Bird: "No."
Su Wan: "Help me connect to Gu Zilan’s communicator."
Vermilion Bird: "Yes!"
When Gu Zilan received the call from Su Wan, he almost felt like the light computer was burning his hand, and he nearly threw it away; he did not want to tell Su Wan the truth, fearing it would affect her health.
But rationality told Gu Zilan that Su Wan was different from other people, she might be persistent in wanting to know the truth.
Gu Zilan was in a dilemma for a moment and asked the Empress Luo Manya beside him, "Manya, do you think we should tell Su Wan about the little uncle’s situation?"
Queen Luo Manya: "You should tell her, you can’t hide it."
Gu Zilan thought for a moment, sighed, and at last allowed Aiwei to connect the call.
Su Wan didn’t beat around the bush, "Did something happen to Ajue? I can sense it, just tell me everything you know."
"Although my rank is not high enough, Ajue is my husband, and I have the right to know everything."
In just a few words, she sealed all of Gu Zilan’s excuses, and he could only relay to Su Wan what had happened at the time.
He vanished along with the severely injured Doris?
Su Wan recalled the signals Little Mushroom sent to her and frowned, "It seems that Doris used her space abilities to transfer Ajue to another space."
"What? Where could Doris have taken the little uncle?"
