Should I hide it or reveal it? What should I do?

Cocolia's expression changed in a complicated way. She looked at Lin Lanjian deeply, then at the silver-haired girl in front of her, and spoke hesitantly:

"Bronya...he, he is..."

But after opening her mouth, she found that she didn't have the courage to say anything. Finally, she sighed silently, looked at the man, and decided to let him decide for himself.

Seeing this, Lin Lanjian put down the teacup with a slight smile, looked at the elegant and pretty silver-haired girl, and sized her up with admiration in his eyes.

Bronya noticed the way her mother's eyes moved back and forth between her and the handsome man, and her move of finally stopping at the other man as if asking him to speak. Then, seeing Lin Lanjian's scrutiny, she immediately had a guess.

Bronya shyly avoided the man's sight, her pretty face unconsciously blushed, she bit her teeth lightly, hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at Cocolia in front of her and asked softly:

"Mother, he... couldn't he be the husband you found for me?"

Chapter 132 Bronya Can't Believe the Truth

Ok?

Cocolia was stunned. She never expected Bronya to say this. How did she come up with this guess?

But in the girl's mindset and perspective, this man was handsome and young, not like Cocolia's old friend of the same age. Bronya had never heard that she had such a friend or close person, plus her mother's expression just now, and the scene of Lin Lanjian sitting in the main seat naturally and casually.

And the look he gave me seemed to be sizing up and examining his future woman.

Although all the great guardians of all generations were alone and had no family, it was not a rule. Instead, they were all busy with their duties and as people of the highest status, it was difficult for anyone to catch their eye.

Bronya thought that her mother loved her very much and couldn't bear to see her succeed to the throne alone, so she went to the trouble of finding a future son-in-law from nowhere.

Thinking of this, the girl felt touched and shy. She couldn't help but glance at Lin Lanjian secretly. She secretly praised her mother for her good taste, then immediately looked away with a slightly blushing face.

Seeing her look like she was determined to fall in love with her lover, Cocolia sighed in her heart, but did not open her mouth to correct her or refute her. She just looked at the man who was still sitting there with a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Seeing that her mother seemed to have tacitly confirmed her guess, Bronya pursed her lips, feeling suddenly at a loss, but also surprised that she did not feel disgusted or resisted. Then she looked curiously at the strange handsome man.

"My name is Lin Lanjian, I am a visitor from outer space. Um... as you guessed, Bronya, I am also the husband your mother found for you."

Lin Lanjian ignored the gaze of the beautiful mature woman, but followed the words of the silver-haired girl, smiled at her, responded and briefly introduced himself.

"Lin Lanjian..."

Both women murmured the name quietly and then committed it to memory.

However, when Cocolia saw that he really had feelings for his adopted daughter, her eyes became more resentful and a little distressed.

"I...I need to think about this matter. After all, we don't know each other very well and have never gotten along...You seem to be older than me, so I should call you Brother Lin?"

Bronya, who was strictly trained as the successor to the Great Guardian since she was a child, would seriously carry out the words and orders of her beloved and respected mother, even though she sometimes questioned and refuted them.

In addition, this man's appearance and temperament made her feel attracted, so Bronya had actually agreed to this marriage in her heart, but out of a girl's modesty and her own thoughts, she still spoke tactfully and called him tentatively in the hope of narrowing the distance first.

"Well, whatever you want, Bronya."

Lin Lanjian smiled gently at the girl.

Seeing his bright, warm and charming smile, Bronya couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, her cheeks turned red. Thinking of what the man had just said, her beautiful eyes understood and she whispered softly:

"Brother Lin, are you an alien? No wonder, you don't dress like a local from Beloberg, and if there were someone as good-looking as you in the city, everyone would have known about it long ago."

As she finished speaking, she frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable, and asked hesitantly, "So, Brother Lin, are you kidding my mother and me? You should leave here, right?"

"I will leave, but I will come back to visit Belloberg often, and I am not kidding."

Lin Lanjian nodded and shook his head, stood up, and shrugged lazily, "If you find it unacceptable, Bronya, then just treat it as a joke. Your mother and I don't have any formal agreement on paper."

Bronya felt relieved when she heard that, but became anxious again when she heard the following words. She was about to say something when she was interrupted by a sudden voice.

"Master Guardian, the Silver Mane Iron Guard officer Jeppard Landau has brought three outsiders to see you."

A serious and respectful voice came from outside the open door, and then four figures walked in.

"Well, Jeppard, the messenger has told me the situation. He did a good job. You may leave first."

After Cocolia helped Lin Lanjian calm down, she received messages from outsiders during the short time she was resting. She knew that the people coming were all Lin Lanjian's friends. She was not surprised at this time. She nodded slightly and waved to let him leave.

Jeppard, who was wearing armor, said yes respectfully and retreated quickly.

"Lan Jian, so you're already here. I was thinking of looking for you in the city!"

"Honey~ I miss you. It's cold outside. Hug me~"

"My dear, it seems that you have already sorted out your affairs, and you even got here before us."

When the three Ji Zi girls saw the familiar man on the stage, they all smiled with joy. San Yue Qi looked at him walking towards them and couldn't help but jogged over to hold his hand.

Xing threw herself into her lover's arms, asking for a hug.

"Mother, you..."

Bronya looked at the scene in front of her. From their words and actions, she could tell that the three women who came in, each with their own unique qualities, all had a very close relationship with Lin Lanjian. If nothing unexpected happened, they should all be his women.

She looked at her mother with a bitter look, as if to say, "Is this how you choose a husband for your daughter?"

"Isn't it common for an excellent man to have three wives and four concubines? Bronya, how many of the nobles you have met are not like this? What's more, a person like you, my Lord?"

Cocolia did not say anything to comfort her, but just told the truth and didn't say anything else.

Bronya was stunned for a moment, knowing that this was the truth. With Lin Lanjian's charm, countless women were bound to be attracted to him. And from the way he addressed her as mother, she also realized that this man was not just a handsome outsider.

She was feeling complicated. For a moment, she couldn't accept that her future husband, whom she had just fallen in love with, had another woman. She stood there quietly, thinking without saying anything.

"Jizi, you and Cocolia should go and tell her the purpose of our trip. Although I have already discussed it with her, it is better to be formal."

Lin Lanjian rubbed Xing and Sanyueqi's heads, then let them go, looked at the tall and beautiful red-haired sister and spoke softly.

Ji Zi smiled and nodded. Although she also wanted to do some intimate actions with Lin Lanjian, this was a formal occasion and there were important matters to discuss. Moreover, her mature and stable personality did not allow her to act like the two women.

So Ji Zi stepped forward and started talking to the beautiful and charming guardian.

Cocolia glanced at Bronya and sighed inwardly. She wanted her daughter to inherit the position of Grand Guardian immediately, so she did not hide anything and told her everything about the star core, including everything she had done after being bewitched.

At first, Bronya was just curious and surprised about the star core, something she had never known before. Later, she heard that it was the source of the world's disaster and that her mother was working with it to abandon the entire Beloberg.

The image of the great guardian and mother that she respected and esteemed in her mind had somewhat collapsed. She could not believe that her previous doubts were actually correct. Things like blocking the lower area and attacking the Rift at all costs were all betrayals against Cunhu and Beloberg.

"Mother, Mother! This can't be true, right?! You were just joking. How could you abandon us, right?"

Bronya's face was a little pale. She looked at Cocolia, trembling slightly, and asked in a low voice still in disbelief.

Chapter 133: Bad woman, we haven't even met Lan Jian yet...

Cocolia felt a little distressed when she saw her like this, but she still gritted her teeth, nodded and spoke slowly:

"The great guardians of all generations have been hiding the truth about the star core and fabricating lies to deceive the public. It was not until I took office that the erosion of the rift accelerated and became deeper. The despair was so overwhelming that I couldn't breathe, so I..."

"I'm sorry, Bronya. Although I was indeed bewitched by the star core, those things were done and they are indisputable facts... Fortunately, you saved me and I didn't really make an irreparable mistake."

After Kokolia told the whole story, her expression was still complicated and bitter, but she felt relieved in her heart. She looked at the girl and continued, "I am too ashamed to face the people of Beloberg. The position of the Great Guardian should not be held by someone like me."

"Once the star core problem is solved, I will disappear from the public eye. Bronya, you will take over as the Great Guardian then."

"Mother, I, I don't believe all this is true!"

Bronya felt a little uncomfortable. She lowered her head and was silent for a moment before she raised her head and spoke.

She shook her head, but still couldn't accept and understand at the first moment how the revered mother and the great guardian loved by her people could be bewitched and betray Cunhu and Beloberg.

Cocolia didn't know what to say to comfort her daughter. She wanted to reach out and hug her, but she dodged him by trembling and taking a few steps back.

"Bronya, in that case, how about I take you to the lower level area tomorrow? Go and witness and discover the truth of everything from beginning to end, and you will understand your mother."

Lin Lanjian looked at the silver-haired girl who was a little at a loss after hearing the truth, sighed slightly, and spoke softly.

What kind of pressure and despair must the mother have faced to choose the wrong path of gambling...

Hearing this, Bronya looked at the man who was comforting her gently, her heart trembled slightly, and she pursed her lips and began to think from his perspective with some complexity.

"Bronya, you should go with the adults. After a thorough understanding, it's time to lift the blockade of the upper and lower areas. They shouldn't continue to be trapped in the dark underground because of my fault..."

Hope flashed in Cocolia's eyes, and she began to speak. All her regrets were a thing of the past. Her only hope now was that her daughter could truly become a great guardian loved by all the people of Beloberg.

"Okay, I... will follow you, Brother Lin, to the lower level area tomorrow!"

The silver-haired girl bit her lips tightly, intending to abandon her unnecessary naivety and explore everything with her own eyes, so she calmed her excited heart a little and nodded heavily.

"I, I will go to the front line first to give the order to withdraw. It is time for them to stop their fearless fighting."

Bronya's mind was still in a state of confusion. She hurriedly avoided her mother's vague gaze, which had placed high hopes on her as a child. She whispered in a trembling voice and left the place in a hurried manner with somewhat disorderly steps.

"Is this girl named Bronya okay? Is she...not upset?"

Upon seeing this, San Yue Qi glanced at Cocolia, then turned to Lin Lanjian and asked in a low voice with some concern.

"No, Bronya is a strong and courageous child. She is excellent and will be much better than me, the Great Guardian who failed in my duty..."

Before the man could say anything, Cocolia smiled expectantly and answered the pink-haired girl's question with confidence.

"In that case, let's go explore the isolated lower area with my dear tomorrow. Establishing communication and understanding and recording the journey are also part of the development process."

Jizi looked at Sanyueqi and Xing and spoke with a smile.

"It's exciting to explore, but shouldn't we find a place to live first?"

Xing nodded without objection, but then pinched his chin and made a suggestion.

"It seems so, but Yalilo-VI seems to have been cut off from the outside world and the company for a long time. Credit points can't be used as currency! Are we going to camp in the suburbs where there are rift monsters wandering around?"

San Yueqi suddenly thought of this and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Ji Zi shook her head slightly. The steady and careful girl had already noticed the beautiful and mature guardian in front of her. From time to time, she looked at Lin Lanjian with a strong respect and love in her eyes that was difficult to completely conceal.

As the lord of a city, arranging accommodation for them is just a small matter.

Sure enough, the next moment, Cocolia said with a smile:

"Please don't worry. I have arranged the most comfortable hotel in the city for you and the other three. When you leave later, you can ask Jeppard in the square. He will show you the direction."

"Huh~ That's good."

San Yue Qi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in a low voice, "I didn't expect this majestic guardian to be so polite. Although she has made many mistakes and will soon resign... but most of them are problems with the star core. She is still a very good person~"

But the next moment, she overturned her opinion.

"However, this is the residence of the great guardians of all generations. It has complete facilities and is more comfortable and livable."

Cocolia changed the subject, her face flushed, and she looked at her handsome benefactor and spoke softly, "Sir, you... can also stay and live with me. You are welcome here while I am still in office."

She looked at the three beautiful women, each with their own unique qualities, and knew that they were not only the man's partners, but also his women. She felt a little uneasy and urgent.

Cocolia wanted to truly give her body to Lin Lanjian first so that she could feel at ease.

When Sanyueqi and Xing heard this and saw the cold and beautiful mature woman revealing her charming and tender affection towards her lover, they realized that her heart had been won by Lin Lanjian and that she would also be one of their sisters.

"No! Lan Jian must live with us."

Before Lin Lanjian could reply, San Yue Qi suddenly shook his head and rejected Cocolia's words on his behalf.

She was so anxious that her voice became louder. She stepped forward and tightly held the man's arm, pouting slightly, "We are inseparable good friends and... lovers. How can we be separated?"

Humph, Cocolia, you are really a bad woman! Lan Jian and I have never slept together and... truly loved each other. You are old but still don't know how to be humble. You want to take the lead. It's too much~

The pink-haired girl hummed in her heart. She hadn't been able to spend much time with Lin Lanjian in the space station, and now that they were participating in the development together, she would certainly not miss this opportunity.

Seeing Xiao Sanyue speak up bravely, Ji Zi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She expressed her feelings to Lin Lanjian and naturally wanted to spend more time with him.

Chapter 134: Waiting for You Obediently

"Okay, of course I'll go with you guys, Sanyue, okay?"

Lin Lanjian shook his head helplessly, reached out and rubbed the girl's head, and the latter immediately smiled.

He naturally understood what San Yueqi was thinking. What could a naive and lively girl hide? Her clingy feelings were all written on her face.

However, looking at Cocolia who was depressed because of his words, Lin Lanjian sighed with sympathy. Her fate was taking a turn for the worse and she was feeling sensitive and uneasy.

"You guys go ahead and wait for me outside. I'll talk to Cocolia and I'll be out soon."

He looked at Ji Zi and the other two girls and said something, then walked towards the great guardian who was in a somewhat low mood.

Sanyueqi puffed her lips, but knowing that Cocolia needed the comfort of a man, and that the other party would be her sister, she didn't say much and followed Ji Zi and Xing out obediently.

"This is not the expression you should have when you were the majestic and cold guardian when I first saw you. Why do you look like a lost and sad little woman?"
