Chapter 516: Chapter 516 She Wants to Meet Little Mushroom
The two of them had always been low-key in their relationship; Chen Nuan didn’t mind, after all, she was certain there were no other women in Lin Yu’s life.
She had thought that she could be with Lin Yu, that they would get married, have children, and live a very happy life.
But now, Lin Yu has told her, break up!
Chen Nuan’s eyes were red as she looked at Lin Yu, who, seeing her like this, felt a bit of heartache.
He had never been able to forget Su Wan, yet he could only bury these feelings deep in his heart. He shouldn’t have gotten close to Chen Nuan in the first place.
Lin Yu said with difficulty, "I’m sorry, Xiao Nuan, I’ve always treated you as the shadow of someone else, a person I will never be able to obtain."
The Chen Nuan in the projection was stunned; her eyes were red, and she said softly, "You mean to say that you were with me because I was a replacement for that person, right?"
"Yes."
Su Wan was too perfect, too outstanding. Later on, no matter who Lin Yu met, no one could ever compare to Su Wan.
He was unable to fall in love with anyone else.
The words from Sheng An yesterday had also served as a wake-up call, because continuing like this, he would be unfair to Xiaowan and extremely unfair to Chen Nuan.
"But, I don’t care! I don’t mind being someone’s replacement! Ah Yu, I just want to be with you, I’m willing to be that person’s replacement for a lifetime!"
Looking at the woman crying pitifully in the frame, yet with eyes so determined, Lin Yu had a moment where he actually hesitated and struggled to let go.
With a pained expression, he frowned and said, "No, it’s not right, this is unfair to you, I don’t love you, I can’t do this. Xiao Nuan, I’m sorry, let’s leave it at that."
Lin Yu cut off the communication.

Su Wan has been very busy lately.
She’s been preparing for her Probationary Commander exam, and besides that, she’s been busy setting up a vegetable cultivation base, though she hasn’t yet decided where to place it.
If it were all artificially made, not only would the cost be quite high, but maintaining an environment similar to that of Ancient Earth would also be difficult.
As for forming a team to search for edible plants on other planets, that had to be put on hold for now.
Su Wan also needed to spare some time each day to spend with the children.
Not sure if it was her imagination, Su Wan always felt that Xiaoyan was not too happy, but each time she showed concern, the little girl would cheer up.
This situation was particularly reminiscent of... harboring worries?
Upon thinking of this possibility, Su Wan shook her head in resignation. How could it be possible, Xiaoyan was still so young.
But in fact, Su Wan had not guessed wrong; the beautiful little princess indeed had a concern, she has been missing her Little Mushroom.
"Little Mushroom, why haven’t you come to find me yet?" Little Gu Yan, dressed in a pink princess gown, sat somewhat sullenly on the soft sofa.
She stretched out her little hand, conjuring a white mushroom in her palm, then with a quiver of her hand, the mushroom vanished.
Xiaoyan missed the untransformable Little Mushroom; she missed that young boy.
Lately, mom and dad had been very busy, big brother was learning how to be a Crown Prince, little brother was... obsessed with swimming and playing with tails, it seemed like everyone in the family had things to do, leaving her alone.
No, she had things to do as well.
She missed her Little Mushroom!
Just at that moment, in the garden of the Commander’s mansion, all the plants shook together; they trembled slightly, and a wave of transparent light gathered from every corner of the garden into the children’s room.
Right in front of Little Gu Yan.
Little Gu Yan suddenly opened her eyes, clenched her little fists, and said very seriously, "I’m going to find Little Mushroom!"
All the white light converged, then slowly dispersed, but in the children’s room, Little Gu Yan was no longer there.
At this moment, aboard an Insectoid starship, the Insect God had confirmed that Doris’s superpower had almost completely recovered. She should be able to initiate her first space-time journey and bring over some members of the Insect Clan.
Now finally possessing limbs, Doris had truly become a genuine robot on the surface. She was actually quite excited about transferring a large number of the Insect Clan to this universe.
This would definitely add a lot of trouble for Gu Jue and his company!
While Doris was eagerly preparing to launch the operation, the Insect God suddenly opened its eyes, "Stop!"
Doris: "..."
She was so frustrated but having witnessed the power of the Insect God, she didn’t dare to act recklessly again. What if the Insect God decided to pin her underfoot next time!
Nobody dared to move, while the Insect God turned and ran in a certain direction.
It ran urgently for several seconds before realizing something. The next moment, the Insect God had instant teleported to the room where it had separated from Xiaoyan.
Back then, after preparing the meal with anticipation, the Insect God had returned to find the room empty, and realized its own chest felt just as empty.
But now, seeing the little girl sitting bewildered in the familiar spot, its heart was instantly filled.
"Little Mushroom?"
"Hmm." The Insect God quickly took two steps forward and hugged her tightly. This was an emotion that it had never experienced before.
It was called longing.
Xiaoyan stretched out her small hands and hugged it back, then suddenly frowned, "How do I feel like you’ve grown taller again? Little Mushroom, aren’t you the same age as me?"
The Insect God looked at her tenderly, "No, Xiaoyan, I’m a little older than you, but not by much."
"Oh, I understand now. You’re the same age as my big brother, right?"
The Insect God hummed vaguely, having forgotten how old it was itself, but it knew for sure that it could not reveal to Xiaoyan the sheer difference in their ages.
The Insect God said, "That day, I had made food and came back to find you, but you were gone."
"My mom and dad came, and they had to hurry back at that time, so we left. Little Mushroom, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to abandon you," the little girl said, looking up at the Insect God with eager eyes.
The Insect God felt its heart melting.
How strange. It had a very strong heart, yet it experienced a feeling as though it was about to melt?
The Insect God nodded, "Hmm, I believe you."
"Then you shouldn’t be mad at my parents, okay? They had no other choice either."
"Hmm, I’m not mad." The Insect God gently touched the little girl’s soft hair and said, "Xiaoyan, how did you come here?"
The little girl tilted her head and said, "Dad, Mom, and Brother were all busy, and I was in the room missing you, then I really wanted to see you, and there were lots of white lights. The next moment, I arrived here."
It was spatial superpower.
Xiaoyan was born with the ability to summon mushrooms, and that mushroom was a symbol of spatial superpower.
Thus, in certain respects, Xiaoyan’s spatial superpower was even more powerful than that of her mother, Su Wan.
The Insect God was very reluctant to part with Xiaoyan but knew that at this time, it was best for Xiaoyan to be returned to her parents.
The Insect God said, "I am temporarily busy with some matters over here. Once I’m done, I’ll come to find you. For now, you should go back to your family, okay?"
"But what if I miss you?"
"Next time, I’ll come and see you."
"Hmm!"
The Insect God patiently taught Xiaoyan to find the feeling she had when she used her superpower. Sure enough, a few minutes later, the little girl on the couch had disappeared without a trace.
