Chapter 490: Chapter 490: Watching the Kids, Su Wan’s Heart is Melting
Relocation is not an easy matter, and at first, it had to be done quite covertly, as well as transporting people from the fifteen sectors of the planet in waves.
It would be a massive project.
At the same time, they had to be on guard against those who were eager to move, seeking to seize power within the Empire Planet.
Meanwhile, some would disagree with the relocation.
But once the decision was made, they began to divide the work and plan the deployment, and for those who didn’t want to relocate, well, that was that, but in the future, the Royal Star Fleet would not be responsible for the security of this place.
After this incident with Gu Jue, those with ulterior motives who emerged were told that sometimes more people is not always better; it’s necessary to streamline and then establish a unified set of rules for everyone to follow.

Su Wan felt very tired.
But she was not unfamiliar with this feeling of drained superpower; rather, she was quite calm and let her spiritual power rest well.
Being back home, Su Wan relaxed even more, so she did not pass out for too long. When she woke up, she even felt a bit hungry?
The sunlight outside was good, indicating daytime, and Gu Jue wasn’t by her side, probably busy with military affairs.
Su Wan knew there must be a lot to deal with at the military department, and it would probably keep Gu Jue busy for a few days.
Concerned about her children, she wondered if Gu Jue had brought them home. As soon as she left the bedroom, she heard the sound of children talking, coming from the children’s room.
Just then, Lin Ranyue came back from the kitchen and, seeing her daughter standing at the door, her face lit up with surprise!
"Xiaowan, you’re finally awake! Quick, go back and lie down on the bed!"
Su Wan smiled weakly, "Yeah, I’m awake, it’s okay, I’m just a bit hungry."
"Perfect timing, I’ve baked some meat pies, no wait, you can’t eat something so greasy right after waking up. Just a moment, I’ll go cook some porridge for you!"
"Mom, let the domestic robot do it. Are the kids at home?"
"Yes, yes, Commander Gu has brought all the children back."
Su Wan was devoid of much strength, but she could still walk. Lin Ranyue was too worried about her to let her move unassisted.
Su Wan couldn’t help but cry and laugh.
Little Gu Chen saw his mother first and immediately ran over with a pitter-patter of feet, while the little Mermaid in the pool stopped swimming and climbed ashore quickly.
The little girl in the cradle happily waved her small mushroom.
Seeing this scene, Su Wan felt as if her heart was melting!
Lin Ranyue remembered Gu Jue’s instructions that once Su Wan woke up, she should send him a communication and also call Ouyang Qing over to give Su Wan another check-up. She immediately did so.
Gu Jue arrived even faster than the nearby Ouyang Qing. Once he got off the flyer, he started running toward home, with White Tiger flying beside him, chattering, "Master, there’s no need to rush like this, you’re acting like a young lad who’s just got married and separated from his wife, hey hey hey, you were together just last night, even though she was still unconscious."
After White Tiger finished speaking, it realized it had lost its master.
The two mechanical arms spread out helplessly. Well, the master is truly madly in love with his wife.
On this side, Gu Jue found Su Wan in the children’s room, where she was sitting on a soft sofa, holding her daughter Xiaoyan, with Little Gu Yu snuggled beside her, and Little Gu Chen had brought over a small stool to sit next to them.
He proudly said, "Mom, while you weren’t home, I told my brother and sisters the stories you used to tell me! They really liked them!"
Su Wan: "..." It wasn’t those modified versions of the stories, was it?
Sisters & Brother: Not that fond of them either.
But the two children were too young, they couldn’t speak yet, let alone refute their brother’s words.
Xiaoyan extended his little hand and placed the little mushroom in his palm into mommy’s, then snuggled into her arms, soft and sweet, especially adorable.
The Commander Gu, standing at the door, felt a bit envious when he saw this.
After all, up to now, his daughter was still a little afraid of him.
Su Wan lifted her head and saw the Commander Gu standing at the door, weathered from travel. Her lips curled into a slight smile, "Ajue, you’re back?"
"Daddy!" Little Gu Chen called out.
Little Gu Yu also symbolically wagged her fishtail.
And Xiaoyan... clutching his little mushroom, burrowed into mommy’s embrace.
Gu Jue: "..."
It was quite a stab to the old man’s heart.
Yet on the other side, Su Wan explained, "Ajue, Xiaoyan is a bit timid, but she’s very clever. If you talk to her more often, she will gradually warm up to you."
Little Gu Chen also nodded vigorously on the side.
Gu Jue responded with a ’hmm’, but with many people around, his icy face didn’t show any additional expression. Just then, Ouyang Qing and the others arrived, and he let them check on Su Wan’s health first.
Actually, there was no need for a checkup, but Gu Jue was too worried about Su Wan, so she obediently let Ouyang Qing examine her.
Ouyang Qing couldn’t help but express, "You finally came back safe and sound."
Su Wan: "Sorry for making everyone worry. But since my superpower is a spatial superpower and it’s such a high level, it seems it was fate for me to find Ajue."
Ouyang Qing had long been immune to their lovey-dovey talk, and said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Understood, I get it. But next time, you still need to take care of your own health."
"Yeah, I got it."
If it weren’t for their concern over the birth of the Insect God, Su Wan and the others had actually planned to return later. They hadn’t been completely ready, but who would have thought that the Insect God would be born so quickly?
If the other party didn’t possess spatial superpower, then for a long time, there would no longer be large numbers of the Insect Clan in this universe, right?
But what Su Wan didn’t know was that following their departure, all the insects of the Insect Nest on the Nameless Star where they had been earlier were stirring unrest.
The swarm lamented.
"We’ve waited for hundreds of years, ah. Where did our great Insect God go, just born and gone already?"
**
The results of Su Wan’s checkup came out swiftly; there were no issues. In fact, after a few more days of rest, she could return to work at the military department.
However, the military department was undergoing reforms and was overwhelmed with work, so Gu Jue didn’t allow Su Wan to return. She had been away from the children for too long anyhow, so she decided to stay and spend more time with the little ones.
In the evening, after the three children had fallen asleep in their little beds, Su Wan returned to the bedroom to see that Gu Jue had also just finished his affairs and had come back from the study.
Su Wan: "A lot has happened during the time we were gone, hasn’t it?"
"Yeah."
Gu Jue recounted the events that had befallen Ouyang Qing, Gu Qingyu and his wife, encountered by Lin Ranyue and others, at the Su Family restaurant, in the military department, involving commanders of the divisions of the Royal Starship Fleet, and so on.
Of course, he also mentioned the events that Su Yun and Lan Rui encountered.
Hearing now that Su Ni had returned to help at the Su Family restaurant with Grandpa Su, Su Wan reflected, "This silly second brother of mine is finally making some progress. But my sudden departure must have caused Grandpa much concern."
