Chapter 79 Slandering Yun Juan
“Sister is truly destined to be with men… This Young Master Ji is already famous! He’s also engaged to the Regent! And now there’s the Imperial Advisor! This must be damaging to the reputation of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, right?” Yun Rong pushed Ji Shuyan aside, walked between Yun Juan and Bai Yichen, and said with a hint of questioning.
Yun Quan finally grinned. So this was where she had been waiting for her all this time!
"Sister, you must have misunderstood. I just met Young Master Ji myself. Besides, it was your guards who saved him from falling into the water. It has nothing to do with me!" Yun Juan said innocently, throwing the question back at him.
Yun Rong turned her gaze to Ji Shuyan beside her, her expression one of absolute certainty!
This season, Shu Yan is one of our own, so when he says something...
Hmph! Yun Juan thinks she can escape?
"It doesn't matter if you say it's okay, sister. We should also hear what Young Master Ji has to say. After all, even if you did it, you can't admit it, right?" Yun Rong looked at Yun Juan with a look of contempt.
Yun Juan saw the disdain on Yun Rong's face and found it extremely amusing!
She only has Ji Shuyan as a trump card; she thinks she can slander me just because of him? Humph! What a pipe dream!
Today the sun shines brightly, a gentle breeze blows, and the lake ripples, reflecting the sky and mountains—a truly breathtaking sight.
Such fine weather attracted many ladies from prominent families to enjoy a boat trip on the lake. People boarded small boats and cruised on the lake.
However, a few boats stood out from the rest, gathering in the center of the lake to form a small fleet that attracted considerable attention.
There were so many ships stopped in the middle that people mistakenly thought some kind of event was taking place, so they were all very curious.
Seeing this, the surrounding cruise ships also moved closer to the fleet, wanting to find out what was going on.
After all, such a lively scene is a rare sight, and everyone wanted to know what was making these people so excited.
As a result, more and more boats gathered around, creating a lively scene.
To everyone's surprise, upon closer inspection, they discovered that it was actually a ship belonging to the Prime Minister's residence, and even the Imperial Advisor was there!
"We pay our respects to the Grand Preceptor!" The ladies and young women bowed to the Grand Preceptor, for he was someone even the Emperor of Tianyuan Kingdom treated with deference!
"I'm just here for a stroll, no need for formalities! Just pretend I don't exist!" Bai Yichen said with a gossipy expression, quickly leaving the room.
Yun Juan had already rolled her eyes at him countless times in her mind. Now that he was absolving himself of any wrongdoing, why wasn't he doing so when he was talking to her earlier?
You could have just pretended not to know me. How hypocritical!
With the Imperial Advisor's words, everyone's curious gaze turned to Yun Quan and Yun Rong. Good heavens! What's going on here?
Could it be that this rumored eldest daughter of the Yun family is actually having an ambiguous relationship with a man and has been caught red-handed?
Thinking of this, everyone's gaze towards the two became somewhat subtle, as if they were all anticipating what interesting things would happen next.
"Since you say I have an affair with Young Master Ji, then you should ask him if I have an affair with him. That way, all the ladies can hear it, so they won't say I'm shameless later!" Yun Juan took out a handful of melon seeds from her spatial storage and started cracking them open!
The relaxed look on her face made Yun Rong's heart skip a beat; she was a little puzzled!
Even Bai Yichen looked at Yun Juan with great interest!
This woman is really interesting. It seems her sister isn't planning to let her off the hook, but she doesn't seem worried at all!
It's as if this didn't happen to her; if it were an ordinary woman, she would probably be terrified!
Even if it didn't happen, everyone understands the power of gossip. It seems she's not afraid at all, but she has a rebellious streak!
Even the ladies, upon hearing these words, could roughly grasp their meaning, and they were all looking forward to what would happen next!
It seems that Miss Yun isn't worried at all, and even has the mood to eat sunflower seeds!
Yun Rong was secretly delighted, thinking that Ji Shuyan would definitely stand on her side.
"Young Master Ji, tell me quickly, are you and my sister in love?" Yun Rong's gaze fell on Ji Shuyan!
Ji Shuyan is interested in me, and he will do whatever I say. After all these years, I've been the one in his heart!
Moreover, Ji Shuyan had promised him that he would go through fire and water for him, even at the cost of his life!
It's just admitting to having an affair with Yun Juan, it's not a big deal, she believes Ji Shuyan can do it!
Yun Rong was surprised that Ji Shuyan kept waving his hand without saying a word!
Yun Juan's lips curled up slightly, and she couldn't help but sneer inwardly, "Hmph! You want Ji Shuyan to speak? I'm afraid he won't be able to! A packet of mute medicine is enough to silence him! Yun Rong's plan is probably going to fail this time!"
"Young Master Ji, don't wave your hand! Speak quickly! I'll plead with my grandmother if you tell me!" Yun Rong was very anxious, wanting Ji Shuyan to say what he wanted to say!
Ji Shuyan was so anxious that he was covered in sweat and couldn't make a sound!
He wanted to tell Yun Rong that Yun Juan already knew the truth, had guessed their plan, and had seen through him!
But no matter how he waved his hand, he couldn't make a sound!
Yun Rong's heart began to pound with anxiety: "It's all over, it's all over! What's wrong with Ji Shuyan! Didn't we agree on something? How could this happen? Is there something he can't say? Didn't he promise to go through fire and water for me?"
However, when she looked at Ji Shuyan expectantly, she found that his expression was somewhat complicated, and he did not speak up to testify for her as she had hoped.
Yun Rong stared wide-eyed at Ji Shuyan in disbelief, her face revealing utter disappointment.
Her face turned pale instantly, and her body trembled slightly.
"How could this be... How could you... How could this happen?" Yun Rong's voice was filled with despair and anger.
Ji Shuyan lowered his head, avoiding Yun Rong's gaze.
Since I can't open my mouth to speak, I guess Rong-meimei won't forgive me now!
It's not that he doesn't want to speak, it's that he simply can't bring himself to do it. But how can he explain it?
Yun Juan looked at Yun Rong triumphantly, a victorious smile on her face.
She said provocatively, "Little sister, you've really misunderstood me this time! Young Master Ji has already waved his hand and said no! Why don't you apologize to me right now?"
Yun Rong bit her lip tightly, her eyes slightly red, tears welling up in her eyes; she seemed unable to accept this fact.
She had originally thought that she and Ji Shuyan had a special understanding and trust, but now it seemed that it was all just wishful thinking on her part.
Ji Shuyan truly disappointed and saddened her this time.
Yun Rong took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart.
She decided to find a suitable opportunity to ask Ji Shuyan why he did this.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she felt incredibly wronged and ashamed, and turned away from the lakeside in a hurry.
