God Invasion: It's awesome to save the world with five problematic girls!-Chapter 1258 - 364: Interlude Among Three Parties (3)
"Hey, didn't you say before that you were dating a guy?"
"Uh-huh~"
"Can I meet him?"
"..."
Tong Yingying's expression froze instantly. She couldn't help but look up at her mother in front of her, feeling a bit hesitant to speak.
"Oh come on, I'm only staying at Linmen for a week, and after that, the only chance I'll have to see him is at your wedding… Besides, didn't you say you've been dating him for years? It's about time you think about marriage…"
"..."
As soon as this topic came up, Tong Yingying immediately showed a guilty expression.
Yes...
Our Tong Yingying actually enjoys boasting a little in front of people she knows.
Like, when talking with Nara about her first time with Yan Huan:
"Oh, that guy was no good," "I had him completely under my control," "He left with wobbly legs," "Kept calling me sister"...
Similarly, when talking to her mother about her relationship with Yan Huan:
"We've been dating for years, it's very stable," "He chased me, and I reluctantly agreed," "He's okay, just averagely handsome," "His personality is just so-so"...
The more she recalled, the more sweat appeared on Tong Yingying's forehead.
"Ahem, let's see if he's busy. Oh, and you're here to see a doctor, not to go sightseeing..."
Yes!
Exactly!
The girls around that guy are all extremely dangerous. It's one thing for me to be involved, but my mom needs to be careful.
"Alright then, just ask him if he's free... Oh, by the way, I brought a little gift for him. You can pass it on for me later..."
"Got it, got it..."
Tong Yingying impatiently looked at the messages on her phone, pondering about texting Yan Huan to say she was back.
Meanwhile, her mother, out of boredom, pulled out a newspaper from the back pocket of the seat in front of her,
"Still today's newspaper... Hey, the celebrities from Linmen look really good. The guys are handsome, and the girls are pretty... Oh, and they're couples, quite a match."
Tong Yingying glanced at the newspaper her mother was holding and scoffed,
"Daishi Private Weekly... A total clickbait, always making up fake news, don't bother reading it."
"Fake news? It looks pretty real to me... Look... 'Controversial female singer's mysterious boyfriend appears, the two are sweet and affectionate, privately engaged!' This boyfriend named Bai Yi is really handsome..."
"Who?"
As soon as she heard the name her mother mentioned, Tong Yingying couldn't even hold her phone and quickly turned to look at her mother.
Her mother was also startled by her sudden movement and held up the newspaper for her to see.
"..."
Tong Yingying scanned the content above, then looked again at the radiant girl in the photo...
Suddenly she remembered, this was the girl she had seen in Ying Country, the girl with humor in her every move.
This girl...
She had inquired with Nara, who said it was... basically impossible for her to be with Yan Huan.
When she asked why, Nara simply said, "A girl who's a comedian cannot have romance."
But now, she's only been away for a few days...
How did the comedian rise to the top?!
"..."
Tong Yingying was puzzled, merely squinting her eyes and looking in the direction of the South District.
Evidently, she intended to find Yan Huan and get to the bottom of things.
...
...
[Congratulations, Ye Zi AI's coverage of Linmen Market has reached 60%, and the preliminary number of computed images has increased to five]
In Ye Shiyu's office at Ye International.
Ye Shiyu heard the virtual broadcast from Ye Zi AI, but this time, she just glanced at her phone indifferently, with no faith in her eyes.
Ever since last time, she had been full of doubt about Ye Zi AI's reports.
Although hypnosis can't be dispensed with, the information on this interface was no more than advertisements pushing through an app to her.
She was tempted to send Ye Zi AI a message saying "unsubscribe."
Even Bai Yi could win...
It's something only a divine AI could predict.
Besides, yesterday that Lemon got into trouble, causing negative news to spread all over...
Surely countless media are making things up, trying to dig out more valuable news.
If they find any information related to Xiao Huan, that would be bad.
Some mouths need to be shut for sure.
"..."
She was referring, of course, to Lemon and her assistant. That morning Ye Shiyu had already dealt with this using hypnosis, so there was nothing to worry about.
Thinking along those lines, Ye Shiyu, having nothing else to do, went online herself to search for news and videos related to last night's incident...
Nothing related to Xiao Huan at all...
In which case...
"Controversial female singer's mysterious boyfriend appears, the two are sweet and affectionate, privately engaged!"
As she scrolled, a headline suddenly popped up on her browser.
Above, a photo Ye Shiyu found vaguely familiar followed closely.
"..."
Ye Shiyu blinked, quickly clicked her mouse, returning to the previous page.
"Daishi Pri... vate Weekly..."
And the title and content posted by the media...
!!
The next second, Ye Shiyu's eyes shrank abruptly, and she quickly picked up her phone to open Ye Zi AI.
She hadn't used it for days, so the chat page still lingered on the night Xiao Huan lay beside her.
In the end, Ye Zi AI sent two photos.
The second one among them...
Was exactly the same as the one that was just sent!
One was captured by a reporter last night.
The other, was from three nights ago sent by Ye Zi AI!
"..."
Staring at the two almost identical photos, Ye Shiyu's heart nearly stopped.
She suddenly felt an enormous fear.
Not just because of this photo but because...
Of the other photo sent by Ye Zi AI.
In that photo, Xiao Huan lay naked in bed, cuddling on either side.
One person was Sakuragi Hitomi.
The other, with a blurred face and build, Ye Shiyu couldn't recognize.
But... 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
If the photo with Bai Yi is real...
Then this one?
Is it real?
Did it not happen, or has it already happened?
"Ding~"
"Ding~"
With a pale face and an expressionless face but narrowed eyes, Ye Shiyu looked at the phone picture, unconsciously soaked in cold sweat once again.
She kept recalling everything Xiao Huan did that night.
His reaction to her, helping cover for her with her mother...
Before, when he left home, when he accepted flowers from her, when he spoke those words at the bookstore...
Didn't all that indicate that Xiao Huan had feelings for her...
But if that's true, why do such photos exist?
"..."
Ye Shiyu, silent, stared at the interface inside Ye Zi AI, and ignored the ringing phone in her pocket.
Until the next second, Ye Zi AI proactively sent a message,
[All questions can be answered through predictions. Would you like to activate predictions and obtain images of the future?]
Looking at the sudden message, Ye Shiyu, drowning in immense doubt, suddenly seemed to see hope.
But...
After hesitating for a second, she still diverted her gaze.
Earlier, Ye Zi issued a task prompting her to hypnotize her mother...
What it says might be ill-intentioned, and even what it publishes might not be true.
It's possible that it's a mix of truths and falsehoods, meant to lead her into trusting it...
So, no matter what, she shouldn't let it make predictions now...
"..."
Until the next second, she snapped back realizing someone was calling.
It was her mother.
"...Mom?"
Ye Shiyu picked up the phone, speaking with a trembling voice.
"Wanna come home for dinner tonight? You've been eating at the cafeteria all these days, are you used to it?"
"I'm used to it..."
Ye Shiyu responded instinctively, but the next second, she suddenly thought of something.
Yes, she doesn't know if Ye Zi AI's predictions are accurate...
So...
Why not confirm it herself?
"...Mom, I don't think I'll come home for dinner tonight, alright?"
"Hmm? Why, do you have plans?"
"Mm..."
Gazing at the first photo, where Xiao Huan lay in bed with someone on each side, Ye Shiyu's eyes were as deep as a black hole.
Her eyes trembled slightly, yet she still whispered,
"Tonight...
"I have plans with Xiao Huan, I need to go to the South District."
