Rumors of a Romance with Robin [Second Update]

Compared to when Ji Yuan met Tingyun somewhat reserved.

"Hmm, it's Tingyun, right? Come here, I heard about their preferences from my fox clan colleagues on Yaoging Star-skiff when I came here, so I've prepared a lot of gifts for you. See if you like them."

What a beautiful young girl! She's several times better than my own daughter in every way.

It's truly a case of having the slightest chance of winning.

"Uh-huh."

Seeing Suyi's approval of her, Tingyun felt much relieved.

It's common knowledge that the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult to manage. Seeing that Suyi didn't reject her, Tingyun felt that her future with Ji Yuan would be much smoother.

So Tingyun moved closer to Suyi, and the two 'mother-in-law and daughter-in-law' walked in very intimately.

Ji Yuan was left with nothing to do.

When I had a spare moment, I glanced upstairs and saw Sushang on the balcony looking like she'd been severely disciplined by her mother. I couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing her unscrupulous brother's behavior, Sushang clenched her fists in anger and gestured wildly.

Chapter 239 The Scandal with the Robin [Second Update]

There weren't only Sushang Suyi Ji Yuan, and Tingyun in Ji Yuan's house. Ruan Mei was also conducting scientific experiments, but she didn't come out of her room.

Huohuo, transformed into a little cook, is preparing dishes in the kitchen. Firefly is helping her from the side.

Seeing Ji Yuan and the others approaching, Huohuo happily said, "Teacher, you're back! Perfect timing, I've already prepared lunch."

"Ji Yuan, I made one of the dishes. Try it later."

"Okay, sure."

Hearing Firefly and Huohuo say this, Ji Yuan naturally smiled and nodded in agreement. Standing beside him, Tingyun felt slightly uncomfortable hearing the two of them talk like this.

But then I thought about it again and realized I was overthinking it. Putting aside the Firefly, Huohuo is still a child; how could I be having such wild thoughts?

She went over and helped Huohuo and Firefly carry the food.

When the dishes were brought to the table, the two women were already seated, exuding an extremely strong sense of confrontation. Seeing this antagonistic aura, Suyi couldn't help but take a step back. Upon closer inspection, she recognized Ruan Mei as someone she had met before, and while she hadn't seen Jingliu before, she instantly recognized the white-haired, blindfolded female swordswoman.

She turned to look at her son, wanting to ask what was going on.

Ji Yuan spread his hands, looking helpless.

There's no one who can mediate the conflict between these two teachers.

"Teachers, lunch is ready."

He quickly took the dishes and went up to Jingliu and Nguyen Mai.

"Good."

"Ruan Mei said gently. Jingliu also nodded silently, seemingly restraining his imposing manner under Ji Yuan's persuasion."

Seeing this, Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come on, let's eat."

He put the dishes down, preparing to go get more. But just as he was about to leave, his two teachers quietly stopped him from either side.

Looking at their synchronized movements, Ji Yuan couldn't help but glance at his two teachers.

No, these perfectly synchronized movements... did you two plan this in advance? Just look at this level of understanding, I wouldn't believe anyone who says you two don't get along.

Ji Yuan was pulled to sit down between the two people.

Ruan Mei said to Ji Yuan, "Come on, you've relaxed enough these past few days. Let's take advantage of this mealtime to thoroughly review the previous battle."

Teacher, while that's true, please don't tease me by sticking your foot under my trouser leg like you do, Mr. Jingliu. And Mr. Jingliu, please don't put your hand under my clothes either.

Ji Yuan, by sheer coincidence, dared not show anything unusual.

Tingyun was watching, Suyi's mother was watching, and Sushang was also watching.

The wife, mother, and sister were all victims!

Oh no, it seems the Firefly have already spotted it.

Jingliu and Ruan Mei were both stronger than Suyi, so their stealthy movements wouldn't be noticed by her. However, Firefly was now Emanator, and with her strength, she could naturally discover more details.

Ji Yuan could clearly see the shock in Firefly's eyes. However, as a Stellaron Hunter, she didn't show it on the surface despite her shock.

Worried that the other three might also discover it, he quickly reviewed the previous battle with Jingliu Ruan Mei.

Suyi was also curious about the battle back then, so she sat down to listen as well.

Hearing that Ji Yuan fought fiercely against the leader, used the foundation stone to fight against the swift enemy, and finally killed Luo Hou with a single sword strike under the blessing of the Trailblazer of the Hunt, she was proud of her son, but she also looked at Ji Yuan with worry.

She advised Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, you should still be careful in the future. You don't have any descendants yet, and I still want to see my grandson."

"Don't worry, I'll be careful."

Ji Yuan nodded quickly.

Upon hearing Suyi's words, Tingyun blushed shyly. Firefly, listening nearby, couldn't help but look on with longing.

As for Nguyen Mai, her expression remained unchanged.

She's not the type to be swayed by Suyi.

She wouldn't care about her adoptive mother, let alone her biological mother, Nguyen Mai.

Sushang sat down next to Ruan Mei and noticed the dark red pendant around Ruan Mei's neck. She asked curiously, "Oh? Ms. Ruan Mei, that pendant you're wearing is so beautiful. How did you get it?"

Upon hearing Sushang's question, Ruan Mei smiled broadly and said to Sushang, "This was obtained by your brother for me, his teacher."

Jingliu was equally unconvinced, and she also took out a dark red pendant. As if to compare it with Ruan Mei, she said, "Coincidentally, Ji Yuan also prepared one for me."

Ruan Mei's smile was somewhat stiff, Ji Yuan could clearly feel the force in his calf increasing.

Not only did the two of them react, but Firefly also couldn't help but cover her chest, not daring to show it.

Sushang couldn't help but whine to Ji Yuan, "Brother, why don't you send me one?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan broke out in a cold sweat.

Sister, other things are fine, but how am I supposed to give you this?

Go away, go away, go play somewhere else.

"That was obtained by chance, and it's not easy to find it again."

Ji Yuan casually made up an excuse and said.

Something's not right, something's really not right.

Both Sushang and Suyi could see through Ji Yuan's lie, but they lacked the information to figure out why.

"This color is somewhat similar to blood, but Jingliu and Ruan Mei are such people, how could they care about blood?"

Suyi thought to herself.

She couldn't think of anything else, but as long as it wouldn't harm her child, that was fine. Suyi continued to savor the food on the table.

Hmm, this table of food is quite abundant, and the taste is indeed excellent. Ji Yuan's student named Huohuo is really skilled at cooking. Oh, right, there's also a dish made by Miss Firefly. That's food personally prepared Emanator a powerful envoy; I must have a good taste of it.

But something about Firefly seems a bit strange. She's Emanator, she could kill me in no time. Why is she acting so subtly ingratiating towards me?

It's like Tingyun.

Suyi now has the feeling that she actually has two unmarried daughters-in-law.

Thinking this, she couldn't help but chuckle.

How could this be? Firefly is Emanator. In terms of status, she's comparable to a general. How could she do this knowing her son has a girlfriend?

But some ideas, once started, are hard to stop.

Most women would kill their husbands if they had multiple wives. But what about their sons having multiple daughters-in-law...?

Although we don't support it in principle, if you really like it, I, as your mother, can't very well object...

Suyi's mind was filled with all sorts of wild thoughts.

Just as Ji Yuan was suffering such torment, there was another knock at the door.

"Hmm? Who's here? I'll go see."

Ji Yuan gestured for Jingliu's hand and Ruan Mei's foot to leave his body, and then stood up to open the door.

As Ji Yuan walked towards the door, he felt a sense of relief.

Finally, I can escape this chilling situation. From now on, whoever it is, I will thank you properly.

Open the door.

His smile vanished.

It's Sparkle.

She was dressed as a newsboy, with a stack of newspapers on her back.

What are you doing here?

"Of course I'm here to sell newspapers." Sparkle said, handing a newspaper to Ji Yuan: "One Stellar Jade for you."

Ji Yuan ignored her gesture of asking for money and instead looked at the newspaper, wanting to see what it said.

Breaking News: Famous singer Robin checking into a hotel with a mysterious man.

The man who went to the hotel with Miss Robin is a mystery!

[Miss Robin never had any romantic scandals, was secretly...]

Besides the news in the newspaper, there were also several photos of Ji Yuan and the Robin.

The people who took these photos had such good angles that they completely photoshopped Tingyun and Qingque, who were standing next to them, out of the picture. It really looked like the two of them went to the hotel together.

"You didn't take this photo, did you?"

Ji Yuan looked at Sparkle with an interrogative expression.

Sparkle immediately spread her hands and said, "I don't want to get beaten up. If I really do that, I'll get nothing but your anger."

The main problem is that this kind of fun isn't enough for her.

It would only be interesting if she could disguise Robin to go on a date with Ji Yuan, book a room, and then fool the real Robin.

Unfortunately, her disguise was completely useless against Ji Yuan.

She could only dream about it.

Ji Yuan carefully examined the angles of the photos and realized they appeared to be screenshots from surveillance footage. If an ordinary person were spying, it would be unlikely to escape Ji Yuan's notice. But with cameras everywhere on the street, Ji Yuan didn't care even if he knew. And yet, he was secretly filmed like this.

Tingyun and the others also came over and saw the contents of the newspaper that Ji Yuan was holding.

"What's going on?! Dude, you're not really...!"

Sushang asked in shock.

Then, Ji Yuan hit her hard on the head.

Ji Yuan said expressionlessly, "Don't talk nonsense to me. When I was with Miss Robin, Tingyun and Qingque were also there."

"Yes, I was there too."

Tingyun nodded in agreement.

Then, she thoughtfully said to Ji Yuan, "I feel we still need to take action to resolve this matter. Here, let me see which tabloids are behind this, and we must make them pay the price."

Putting aside Ji Yuan's identity, she is also a representative of the Luofu Merchant Guild, which owns numerous businesses throughout the universe.

As Ji Yuan watched, the system's voice echoed in his mind.

[You and Robin, the most famous and emotionally resonant singer in the universe, have been rumored to be having an affair, singing songs of Harmony throughout the cosmos and attracting the attention of the Aeon of Harmony. For this, the system rewards you with +10 to Emotional Influence; your actions, singing, and other influences on others will become even greater.]

Huh? What are they asking me to do? Debut as an idol, or become the leader of a cult?

Ji Yuan thought to himself subconsciously.

However, he also knew that this ability was not limited to that.

Previously, Ji Yuan thought Robin was just an ordinary singer, so she didn't pay much attention to her. But now it seems that she is the singer that Xipe is watching.
