Chapter 498: Chapter 498 She’s So Sweet
"Within the Universe Alliance, there are some who do not wish to see the Empire Planet’s successful migration to Landis Star; you should also be more cautious in the future,"
"Yes, I know."
Zhuo Feng sighed, "Our few planets have good relations with the Empire Federation, but those people, when they discuss actions, always avoid us. They don’t trust us, and they don’t want to drive us away either."
Gu Jue spoke softly, "Yes, thank you. Every planet has its own stance; I still appreciate your warning."
"No need to mention it. By the way, how has Xiaoyun been recently? If he has done anything wrong, you should discipline him if necessary, and talk to him if needed."
"Alright."
After ending the call, Gu Jue, along with the Royal Star Fleet, had returned to the main star, and he made a trip to the Imperial Palace first.
Gu Zilan had already been aware of the matter, and a flash of anger crossed his scholarly and handsome face, "They should have directly blown up their planet! These people are brainless morons!"
Gu Jue: "In military matters, we cannot let our guard down; they definitely have other tricks up their sleeve. How far has the migration progressed now?"
Gu Zilan: "The different areas have been categorized, and the phased relocation has already begun."
Gu Jue suddenly remembered what Su Wan had mentioned, and he said, "Your auntie wants to be with her family."
"I understand, that’s easy to handle."
"Yes."
Following Gu Jue’s return, Gu Yuan could finally take some rest, but the migration was a major affair. With the other planets still watching, Gu Yuan began to oversee the related affairs of the migration.
After discussing official matters, Gu Zilan spoke with concern, "Uncle, Xiaoyan and the others weren’t frightened, were they?"
"A little, I will head back to the mansion now."
"Yes, you should hurry back."
When Gu Jue arrived home, he asked White Tiger, "Where is the lady?"
White Tiger: "The lady is in the study, it seems she’s studying and looking up information."
Gu Jue changed his course toward the study and upon opening the door, he saw his delicate wife sitting at the desk, flipping through documents, with the virtual screen beside her also lit up, scrolling through various data surveys.
Hearing the sound, Su Wan turned her head, saw Gu Jue and asked, "Is that matter resolved?"
"Yes, it’s someone from the Universe Alliance causing trouble, but they won’t dare to do anything for the short term."
Su Wan massaged her temples, "With the external threat resolved, internal strife begins. It really seems that, at times, it’s better to have a common enemy."
Gu Jue: "That’s why I initially spared Lucifer."
Because Lucifer was still at large and Doris’s fate unknown, they represented a threat that the Universe Alliance could not ignore. Therefore, those people were only tentatively challenging the Empire Planet, not daring to make any bold moves.
Su Wan: "Ajue, I’ve been researching plant evolution and found that from Ancient Earth to the present, some plants have mutated and adapted better to the new universal environment."
Gu Jue walked over and wrapped his arms around her, "Go on."
Su Wan: "The appearance of Beastmen is an evolution of humans adapting to the new universal environment, but Beastmen have flaws, such as the uncontrollable Manic-Depressive Period and the propensity for spiritual power to surge violently. Yet, for so many years, they have been peacefully coexisting. Until Doris serendipitously brought Insectoids to our universe, and at that time, we had Xiaoyan."
Gu Jue: "Do you mean, Xiaoyan’s evolution is actually targeted at the Insectoids?"
Su Wan nodded, "I’ve researched some materials. Plantmen, to some extent, actually complement the Insectoids. For example, some plants can even catch bugs, while some bugs can’t survive without plants."
"So, you’re saying that our family’s Xiaoyan won’t be the only Plantman because of the existence of Insectoids. In the future, there will be more and more Plantmen."
This was a newer direction for human evolution.
However, Su Wan was a bit annoyed afterward, "What I don’t quite understand is why Xiaoyu’s evolution towards plants seems related to mushrooms, but I haven’t heard of any bugs that are afraid of mushrooms. I keep thinking, if we hadn’t encountered Little Mushroom that time we went to Landis City, would Xiaoyan have been just a normal, healthy purebred human?"
Gu Jue caressed her long hair affectionately and shook his head, "No, all of this was destined to be."
The voices of the two speaking weren’t loud, but they carried into the adjacent children’s room where Xiaoyan, tired from playing, yawned and her quaint large eyes were brimming with tears.
Little Gu Chen hurriedly said, "Is Xiaoyan sleepy? Come, your brother will carry you to the baby crib."
"Ah ah!"
Although the little girl was extremely sleepy, she nodded vigorously, responding to her big brother. Little Gu Chen, seeing this, felt his heart melting.
Hehehehe, his sister was just so adorable no matter how he looked at her!
Xiaoyan obediently let her brother carry her. After being placed on the baby crib, she yawned again and gave Little Gu Chen a sweet smile.
Little Gu Chen whispered, "If you’re sleepy, sleep, and if you’re hungry, just call me."
Initially, to welcome his little sister’s arrival, Little Gu Chen had thoroughly transformed the children’s room. Because his younger siblings were still small, he even made sure to equip it with specialized nanny robots. If the children were hungry in the middle of the night, the robots would immediately come to care for them.
But whenever Xiaoyan got hungry at night, Little Gu Chen would wake up and take care of her along with the nanny robots. Of course, occasionally he would also take care of his younger brother.
They had not heard what their parents were saying, but Little Mushroom, held in Xiaoyan’s arms, had heard Su Wan and Gu Jue’s conversation clearly.
Silver light flickered faintly.
So this little girl is a Plantman, no wonder; he found her so sweet-smelling, much sweeter than those Beastmen.
In the study, Gu Jue suddenly felt something. He instinctively looked outside, and Su Wan asked curiously, "Ajue, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing. I just felt a fluctuation of spiritual power, but it’s probably Xiaochen and the others."
"Oh, you’ve also had a tough day. You should rest early. Are you continuing with the migration work tomorrow?"
"Yes."
After checking on the children and seeing they were all asleep, the couple returned to their room and embraced each other in sleep.
**
The migration was organized by sections, and it wasn’t long before the Su Family restaurant received a notification to move. Thanks to Su Wan, the Su Family restaurant relocated to Landis Star, and all the branches in different areas got the best locations. This made their competitors quite jealous and envious, but they couldn’t do anything about it.
After all, it wasn’t for nothing that the husband of their boss was Commander Gu.
Some felt it was unfair and expressed dissatisfaction in private, but there were also people online who started agitating, refusing to migrate to Landis Star!
[We’re living well on Empire Main Star, why should we leave?]
