Chapter 2572 - 31: The Daughter-in-Law Was Frightened!
Before long, when she learned who was arriving, the journalist’s girlfriend followed Jia Rong to the outside of Jia Rong’s own villa with a tense expression...Under the brightly lit starry sky at night, they saw a man standing quietly beneath the starry sky, with an ethereal and divine demeanor.
"Dad... Daddy."
Jia Rong called out awkwardly.
"Hmm."
Jia Yan’s avatar, who was always here as a guardian presence among the Earth people, slowly turned his head.
What kind of gaze was this?
It wasn’t just Jia Rong’s journalist girlfriend seeing Jia Yan’s real person for the first time; even Jia Rong, who had seen Jia Yan many times, felt mesmerized by Jia Yan’s avatar’s gaze, almost falling into the world of his eyes, unable to extricate himself.
This was merely a natural gaze, and Jia Yan didn’t intend to do anything to them, nor did he deliberately withdraw his enchanting eyes.
Before long, Jia Rong, due to his decent strength, quickly regained his attention.
But his girlfriend, the journalist, felt a bit like gritting her teeth for a moment.
"Heh..."
Jia Yan couldn’t help but smile slightly, a smile full of mystery.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
Seeing Jia Yan behaving this way, Jia Rong felt a burst of anger surge. Although over the years he had said he was open to these things, facing Jia Yan, and Jia Yan treating his girlfriend like this immediately, of course, he was angry.
Jia Yan continued to smile, said nothing, but made his eyes no longer so enchanting.
The journalist girlfriend immediately retracted from the world she couldn’t escape from.
"Xiao Rong, your girlfriend is nice, and your mother just returned as well; spend more time with her."
Jia Yan smiled warmly at Jia Rong.
However, Jia Rong still expressed resentment.
Yet the journalist appeared hesitant momentarily.
Her behavior certainly indicated some problem.
But she probably didn’t know that during her gaze exchange with Jia Yan, everything about her had already been laid bare.
A strong one is truly not a simple existence. Even if Jia Yan couldn’t read minds, he could tell a creature was acting against their true nature.
At this moment, Jia Yan said nothing, because he could see this journalist had some inside stories, and she genuinely liked his son Jia Rong.
Since she liked him, and her eyes didn’t show malicious intent, it seemed the person behind the scenes also didn’t intend to harm, probably just wanted a chess piece or something.
Yet all of this still irritated Jia Yan.
After conversing with Jia Rong for a while, under Jia Rong’s improved attitude, Jia Yan accompanied him into Jia Rong’s villa for a sit.
When Jia Yan gave familial advice to Jia Rong in a parental tone, he departed.
Though Jia Rong looked thrilled, his girlfriend, the journalist, felt a sudden dizziness after Jia Yan left.
Because Jia Yan’s voice echoed in her ear.
"You’re great; a truly kind person who loves my son dearly. There’s just someone directing this from behind. If you’re willing to tell me who the mastermind is, I’ll only deal with the mastermind. If you don’t want to say, then in that star domain you’re in... what’s it called, Da Zhong Star Domain, right? I’ll take some time, and this star domain will be wiped out."
Buzz!
The journalist felt her mind was about to explode.
She was drenched in cold sweat.
Jia Yan’s strength was indeed formidable to the extreme. She knew just now that everything about her had long been seen through by this super strong individual.
But she always assumed this strong one was just against her, but now she saw, this strong one also saw her genuine affection for Jia Rong and intended to deal with her backing forces, and if she didn’t speak, he would destroy the star domain...
It seemed he regarded her as his daughter-in-law. But the behind-the-scenes manipulation had to be cleared out.
That night, under the pretense of wanting to go for a walk, the journalist entered a forest and called out, and Jia Yan’s ghostly avatar arrived at her side.
"Un... Uncle Lord, hello."
"Hmm, fear not, you’re indeed a good kid; it’s just someone coercing you, I saw it right away."
Jia Yan indeed saw it right away, not that it was that simple. He had already known from his son’s information, obtained this journalist’s data through some connections, detailed enough to make her scalp tingle if she saw it.
Thus Jia Yan knew her meetings with his son Jia Rong were indeed by chance; only after getting along well did some people jump out, either coercion or inducement, or there were other factors involved.
At least Jia Yan needed to understand whether this temporary daughter-in-law had agreed to anything.
If there was any malicious intent, Jia Yan wouldn’t care about many things.
"Uncle... Uncle Lord, they threatened my parents and family; otherwise, I wouldn’t have agreed with them. Plus, they just wanted some information, nothing to harm Jia’s family nor to target Earth or Orion Arm."
"I believe you. But Jia’s family is not so easily provoked. Actually, even if you didn’t say, I already investigated. It’s the major shareholder behind that media, right? Such a small person, truly laughable, daring to plot for Jia’s family intelligence. All right, don’t worry; I’m still very pleased with you. Just lead a good life with my son. If there’s any villain, speak to Uncle, and I’ll settle it for you."
Jia Yan nodded gently, then chatted warmly for a couple more sentences, showing he was quite satisfied with this daughter-in-law.
As for that person plotting, he didn’t even think about placing responsibility on her. Because suddenly a civilian-like presence approached the lofty Prince, the idea of using this civilian female’s forces was bound to occur.
This reflects the inadequacy of civilian strength. At such moments, don’t blame the civilian woman; just demonstrate regal power instead.
The next day, the journalist woke up to a distant message.
The major shareholder of the media backing her, a nearly top-tier figure in their star domain, saw their entire family wiped out overnight.
Even their stock market holdings transferred to the journalist’s family, making her the one with the highest authority and money.
"This..."
Not talking about the message traveling several hundred light-years quickly to her, just seeing Jia Yan’s terrifying influence wiping out a power entity rooted in their star domain overnight; this horrifying influence deeply impressed upon the journalist how fearsome the words Jia’s family were.
"What’s wrong?"
Oblivious Jia Rong hugged the beautiful journalist.
"It’s nothing. Let’s greet your grandparents and parents."
"No need for that, our family doesn’t have such customs, just a small family."
Small family? Hearing this, the journalist wanted to beat her boyfriend up.
If Jia’s family was considered a small family, no family existed in the surrounding star domains.
In fact, compared to her graceful manner yesterday, the journalist was more restrained today, often nervously misspeaking, causing others to constantly ease the situation.
Others didn’t know she was genuinely terrified.
A group of Jia’s family who didn’t comprehend their greatness, along with a boyfriend who looked down on his own family; this family was truly peculiar.
"Heh, this little one is quite adorable."
Watching the slightly shy yet assimilating girl into his family, Jia Yan’s avatar chuckled.
After resolving the family matter, next... was warfare.
