Restricted fantasy invasion

Chapter 5 5. She said she was here to add contact information

Aunt Chen served a dazzling array of delicious food on the table, and just smelling the ethereal fragrance made people subconsciously salivate.

He glanced at the food on the plate, and turned around to find that Ye Lan, who had come upstairs to change into a home cotton short shirt and had her long hair loose, was sitting on the main seat at the side, holding her chin and looking at him with a smile.
"Are you hungry, little greedy cat? Wait for Aunt Chen to bring the dishes and chopsticks over, and then we can start eating when Shiyu arrives."

The smiling eyes and the intimate address made Yan Huan feel shy for the first time in a long time. He avoided Ye Lan's gaze and prepared to get up to help Aunt Chen get the dishes and chopsticks.

"Then I'll go and help Aunt Chen bring it over."

"No need, Xiao Huan, just sit down, I've already brought it."

Before he finished speaking, Aunt Chen came out of the kitchen with dishes and chopsticks, and placed them on the seats next to Ye Lan, Yan Huan and him in turn.

Only three bowls and three pairs of chopsticks?
Just when Yan Huan thought that Aunt Chen would not eat with them, Aunt Chen turned around and went back to the kitchen, came back with a pair of pure black porcelain bowls and stainless steel chopsticks, and placed them opposite Yan Huan.

Yan Huan looked at it blankly, and then he found that the black porcelain bowl, which was different from the others, had a line of beautiful white characters engraved on it.

"Ye Shiyu"

The same name was written in small characters on the end of each of the stainless steel chopsticks.

Yan Huan looked at Ye Lan in confusion, but only got a helpless smile from her in response. Aunt Chen, who was sitting next to Yan Huan with a smile, explained for him.
"This is a set of porcelain that Shiyu specially asked someone to make in the Porcelain Capital in Longguo. She also made it for us and brought it back. But she is the only one who likes to use black. Her mother and I think black doesn't look good, so we use ordinary bowls."

“Are the stainless steel chopsticks also specially made?
"Oh, that's not it. It's just the chopsticks I bought. It's just that Shiyu has a habit of writing her name on her things. Oh, she has to write her name on every item. Every time she comes back from shopping, it takes a long time to do this."

Aunt Chen scooped rice and poured drinks for the others, saying,
"Besides, she would never throw away anything that belonged to her, unless it was completely useless. If she accidentally lost something, she would keep looking for it until she found it."

What kind of strange habit is this?

Yan Huan blinked and thought so.

Ye Lan's expression became more helpless, but she did not belittle her daughter's stubborn habit. Instead, she said optimistically,

"She's gotten much better since she entered high school. If it's not something extremely valuable, she would give it up if she couldn't find it. This shows that your sister Shiyu really values ​​everything she gets. I think this is a good quality."

"If I had a habit like my sister, I wouldn't have been criticized by my junior high school teacher for being forgetful."

Yan Huan echoed, and Ye Lan smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth.

There were barely perceptible footsteps coming from the stairs next to him. Ye Lan turned around and saw Ye Shiyu coming down. She waved and said with a smile,
"Shiyu, come and eat."

"Ah."

Ye Shiyu nodded, still with no expression on her face, neither enthusiastic nor indifferent. She just sat opposite Yan Huan and gently held the glass.

And the next second, just as she expected, Ye Lan smiled and raised the cup and said to Yan Huan,
"Then let's start having dinner. Come, welcome Xiao Huan to our home. Cheers."

"Thank you auntie."

"Be good, don't say thank you to auntie."

Ye Shiyu also raised her glass and gently clinked it with Ye Lan, Aunt Chen, and finally Yan Huan.

But she just took a small sip, then licked her lips with her tongue.

This was the signal for dinner to begin.

Ye Shiyu held the black bowl in her left hand, and her white and powdered fingertips slowly stroked the name engraved on the bowl, watching her mother frantically pick up food for Yan Huan and herself.

Ye Lan's family did not have the habit of not talking while eating, and the topics discussed at family dinners were usually simple. Aunt Chen would often interrupt and ask about trivial matters, such as the vegetables in the supermarket were not fresh.

It was only after Ye Lan reminded her that she realized that Linmen was on the sea, there was basically no arable land, and all the vegetables were shipped from abroad.

Ye Shiyu ate slowly and elegantly without saying a word.

As for Ye Lan, she was more concerned about Yan Huan, asking him more about school matters that she had not asked in the car, and intentionally or unintentionally led the topic to the direction that his peers were interested in.
"Do you rely on school buses to pick you up and drop you off at school?"

"Yes, Auntie. There are routes in every district, including the Jinghe District, but it seems to be quite far from here. Students living in the nearby communities probably don't need to take the campus bus."

"Yes, it would be faster to pick up Shiyu from school and save commuting time. But I'm very busy on weekdays and don't have much time, so I can only arrange a separate car to pick up Shiyu."

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Yan Huan vaguely felt that Ye Lan had been laying the groundwork for words that had not yet been spoken.

As Ye Lan was talking, he put down his chopsticks as if he suddenly remembered something, and suggested to Yan Huan with bright eyes,

"Yes, Xiao Huan, how about you come and stay at your aunt's house?"

"what?"

"You are classmates in the same school and are about the same age. This way you can go to school with Shiyu, and you don't have to rush to catch the bus every morning and evening. Aunt Chen can also take care of breakfast and dinner at home. How about preparing desserts for you to take to school, Xiaohuan?"

Yan Huan paused while eating, he blinked and looked at Ye Lan who was full of hope, and suddenly he understood why she told the principal that she was her "mother" when she was in school.

Ye Lan came to see Yan Huan not only to reminisce about the past and commemorate his deceased mother, she came here to adopt Yan Huan.

Does Ye Lan have any other impure purposes?
No, not at all.

If you insist on saying there is something, it's just as she said, that she hopes he can take better care of Ye Shiyu, her sister with a weird temper, that's all.

Besides, she is the person in charge of Ye International in Linmen, and Yan Huan is just a high school student. No matter if you are the student union president or an outstanding student, she doesn't need to have any other purpose.

There was one and only one reason why she did this, and that was simply because she regarded Yan Huan, the child of her deceased best friend, as a relative and wanted to take care of him.

And to be more realistic, from what we have seen so far, it can be seen that Ye Lan is worth a lot of money. Anyone with a toe to think about it should kneel down and acknowledge her as his mother and become "Gao Qiqiang's Linmen branch leader."

But, Gul'dan, at what cost?

The uneasy premonition in his heart made Yan Huan's heart beat faster unconsciously, and he looked at Ye Shiyu who was eating dinner leisurely in front of him with a little swelling in his throat.

His smile was hesitant, and he asked,
"Auntie, is this too sudden?"

"Is it not possible, Xiao Huan? Or do you find Auntie too difficult to get along with?"

Sensing the retreat in Yan Huan's words, Ye Lan's eyes gradually brightened up to show the same radiance he had when he first met Yan Huan today.

Her smiling mouth immediately pouted, and the corners of her mouth turned downward as if a weight was hanging on them.

Don't make that expression, Aunt Ye!
Yan Huan resisted the urge to look at Ye Lan, to avoid being affected by her expression, and chose to appeal to her emotions and reason.

".Auntie, you are so kind, how could I think that? I just think it is inappropriate. Look, Auntie, I am a boy after all, and..."

Before he finished explaining his reasons, Ye Lan said,
"Xiao Huan, you are not a stranger, and you don't have to worry at all. Aunt Chen lives on the first floor, my sister and I live on the third floor, and Xiao Huan, you can live on the second floor. Each room has an independent bathroom and is very soundproof. We will knock on the door before entering the room and will not disturb Xiao Huan's privacy."

Okay, okay, you’re good at playing with money, right?

But it is true. Turning around and taking a look at this super spacious garden villa, there is no sense of restraint at all. You can even play basketball in the living room, not to mention the terraces on the second, third and top floors.

There was no other way, he could only ask the question in depth. He looked up at Ye Shiyu, who was eating more slowly, and said,

"And we have to consider Sister Shiyu's thoughts on this matter. There may be some things that the aunts think are insignificant, but..."

Before he finished listening, Ye Lan couldn't wait to turn around and look at Ye Shiyu.

"Shiyu, what do you think?"

Ye Shiyu held the bowl with a small ball of rice on her chopsticks.

Hearing this, she slowly put the ball of rice into her mouth, without chewing, and turned to look at her mother.

Just happened to see her mother's pouting lips, felt her expectant gaze, she nodded and said softly,
"I have no opinion."

Her voice was very nice. Even though her voice was not loud, her words were clear.

"That's great! Although Shiyu doesn't talk much, she is actually a very gentle and kind child. Don't worry, Xiaohuan. My sister and I welcome you very much."

Gentle and kind?
Yan Huan glanced in surprise at Ye Shiyu who was picking up food again. She also raised her eyes and looked at Yan Huan, never avoiding his gaze from beginning to end.

The direct eye contact eased Yan Huan's inner uneasiness a little. He seemed to be thinking about something, but still did not agree immediately.

After thinking it over, Yan Huan had no choice but to use the ability he had just acquired today to adjust the expression on his face.
"I know my sister and aunt are both very good people, but aunt, can you give me some time to think about it?"

Ye Lan pursed her lips and saw the emotion on the boy's face, but of course, more of hesitation.

Yes, she had this problem just this afternoon, why is it happening again now?
She might just be a little too impatient.

Thinking of this, Ye Lan also lowered his voice and suggested softly,

"Xiao Huan, today is Friday and it's dark now. This place is far from the South District where you live. Why don't you stay here for the weekend? I'll take you and your sister to have some fun nearby the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

As long as he didn't make it a definite statement and didn't force Yan Huan to move in, his goal would have been achieved.

At least we should completely dispel the ominous premonition in our hearts first, right?

He looked at Ye Lan, of course he was still hesitant, but in the end, the hesitation on his face seemed to be overwhelmed by her gentleness. He smiled, nodded and said,

"Okay, Auntie."

Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Ye Shiyu, and asked the same question,
"What about poetry?"

"Well, I'm fine with that."

Same reaction as before, same answer.

"Great! It's decided then, Aunt Chen. I'll trouble you to clean up the room on the second floor later."

Ye Lan clapped his hands, and the meal was almost finished.

Aunt Chen, who had been listening the entire time without interrupting, finally stood up at this moment. While she was diligently clearing the dishes, she said to Yan Huan,

"Okay, I'll take Xiao Huan there later."

Ye Lan was already immersed in the joy of "pre-adopting" Yan Huan at this moment, and he did not forget to turn around and say to Ye Shiyu,

"Shiyu, don't forget to add your contact information. If you have any questions in an unfamiliar school, you can ask your brother. He grew up in Linmen and is the student union president. You are new here and you need help. Don't hesitate." Ye Shiyu stood up and wiped her lips with a tissue. She glanced at Yan Huan and said,

"Okay, I didn't bring my phone with me. I'll add him when I get it."

"Yes. I'll ask Aunt Chen to bring you some milk later."

"it is good."

A response came from the stairwell. It was Ye Shiyu who turned around and went upstairs, and soon disappeared.

Yan Huan was also ready to stand up, "Then I'll go see if I can help Aunt Chen, Auntie."

"No need, just stay here and sit with your aunt for a while. Okay, Xiao Huan?"

But Ye Lan in front of him shook her head. She held her chin and looked straight at Yan Huan, looking at his face.

She liked looking at Yan Huan, looking into his eyes, as if she wanted to see everything about him from there, or perhaps she wanted to find the shadow of an old friend on his face.

Feeling her watery gaze, Yan Huan had no choice but to sit down slowly again.
"okay."

Ye Lan just looked at him like this. After a moment of silence, she smiled warmly.
"Xiao Huan, you have worked so hard these years."

Ye Lan's voice was so tender that Yan Huan couldn't help but blink.

The gradually slowing heartbeat in his chest seemed to have lost its strength, unable to push the words out, leaving him with empty mouth.

When he was about to say something, Ye Lan had already stretched and stood up.
"Okay, Auntie is a little tired, so I'll go upstairs to rest first. Auntie Chen will take you to your room later, so go to rest early~"

".You too, Aunt Ye."

Looking at her departing back, Yan Huan responded a second later.

Ye Lan went back to the bedroom on the third floor to rest. Aunt Chen told her that she had been busy since very early today, and going to Yuanyue College to see Yan Huan was her last stop.

After waiting for Aunt Chen to clean the kitchen, Yan Huan followed her to clean up the room. But it was just making the bed and taking out the quilt, pillow and pillowcases, which was not too much trouble.

The room on the second floor was so spacious that it was hard to imagine that this bedroom was even bigger than the one-bedroom apartment he rented in the South District.

Not only does it have an independent bathroom, but there is also an area for sofas, tables and bookcases. At the end of this area is the bedroom with an independent balcony.
After closing the door behind him, Yan Huan looked at the cleaned-up room alone. He raised his eyebrows, put his schoolbag away, and took off his school uniform jacket.
"Isn't this too exaggerated?"

He squeezed the leather sofa in the room, then walked to the door of the bedroom and looked at the balcony outside which was exposed because the curtains were not drawn, and the night view outside the house could be seen from there.

And he, the reincarnated boy from the Celestial Empire, will soon be in this luxurious house asking for leave from his boss who will be working for him the next day or the day after tomorrow.

Well, he decided to put one less period when asking for leave to appear more assertive.

After looking at the darkness of the night for a long time, Yan Huan pulled down the curtains, turned on the bright bedside table lamp, and lay down on the soft bed.

"Meow~"

At this moment, a pleasant cat's meow was heard again in the bedroom.

Yan Huan, who was lying on the bed, stood up a little, turned his head to look at the edge of the bed, and found a fat black cat crawling out from under the bed.

If it weren't for the desk lamp, it would almost blend completely with the dark red wooden floor.

The black cat turned its head, revealing its pair of green eyes. It was Meow-chan.

"Nyan-chan, you're here."

"Meow!"

Yan Huan lay back on the bed, and Miao Jiang jumped up, first rubbing against his side, then standing directly on his stomach, transmitting a voice into his head,

"I thought you would be scared by the modifier incident and wouldn't dare to approach any women for a while. I didn't expect that before a day had passed, not only did you not run away, you actually took the initiative to approach me?"

". You can understand this kind of thing if you just use your brain to think about it, right?"

Looking at the black cat standing on her belly, Yan Huan couldn't help but stretch out her hand to pinch its warm cat ears and stroke its furry back.

"Not only did you not tell me who else had the modifier besides Bai Yi, you also didn't tell me what the effects of other modifiers were. This means you don't know either, right?"

".Yes, my understanding of these invading forces is limited to knowing their existence and commonalities, but the specifics..."

"Isn't it over then?"

Yan Huan spread his hands, his eyes calm.
"Our current goal is to solve the modifiers, and the first step to solving the modifiers is to find them and their hosts, and then understand their properties, so that we can think of ways to solve them."

Assuming that Ye Lan and Ye Shiyu may have modifiers on their bodies, even if they don't come to Ye Lan's house for dinner today, and further reject her adoption request, or even go even further and cut off contact directly, Ye Shiyu will still go to Yuanyue College.

What is coming will come, unless you stay away from all women, or do something more extreme, first drop out of school, cut off all contacts accumulated in the past ten years, then disfigure your face, and then find a place to hide.

Shouting "I don't want to be a human anymore" may be an effective solution, but...
".I want to solve the modifier, and the purpose of solving the modifier is to restore the world line to normal and let my life continue smoothly. I can't put the cart before the horse, and I can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. To put it another way, although Ye Shiyu's personality seems strange, she may not really be the host of the modifier."

As he spoke, Yan Huan's eyes gradually became empty. He placed his left arm on his forehead, thinking of something, and said softly,
"Besides, Aunt Ye is a very gentle person."

Miaojiang just looked at Yan Huan, feeling the constant caress of his right hand. She didn't speak in response. Instead, she straightened her body a little and suddenly began to gently press on Yan Huan's solid chest muscles with her two soft pink pads.

One in front, one behind, one in front, one behind.
"Gululu~"

Yan Huan was slightly startled, lowered his head to look at Miao Jiang who was making a gurgling sound in his throat, and asked,
"What are you doing?"

Miao-chan continued to do this while looking at him as if he were a fool, as if to say,
"I'm a cat, what else can I do besides kneading milk?"

Yan Huan took a breath and was about to reach out and grab the fat cat by the scruff of the neck when there was a knock on the door.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Yan Huan and Miao Jiang looked at each other, then sat up and asked,

"Which one?"

"."

no respond.

But Yan Huan seemed to have the answer. He gently put Miao Jiang down and whispered to it,
"Hide it so no one can see it."

"Meow~"

It nodded, crawled under the bed like a cricket pupa, and then seemed to disappear completely.

Yan Huan straightened his white shirt, put on his slippers and walked to the door.
"coming."

"Click."

Pushing the door open a little, a light was on in the corridor outside, but because Ye Lan had returned to the bedroom to rest, the main light in the living room was off, making the second floor quite dim.

And in that darkness, the tall black-haired girl was standing at the door.

It’s Ye Shiyu.

She was dressed in black from head to toe, except for her snow-white skin.

Her face is so beautiful, it seems like a masterpiece of genes.

Looking at the silent girl outside the door, Yan Huan was stunned at first, then he put on a smile and opened the door a little further.

The bright light in the room spread out and stopped just in front of her slippers, forming a clear dividing line between light and dark.

"Sister Shiyu, what's wrong?"

Yan Huan's voice made Ye Shiyu take action. She picked up the phone and whispered to Yan Huan,

"Mom asked us to add a contact method."

It turns out that I came here to add friends.

As expected, the other party might not necessarily be the owner of the modifier, she was probably just being a little bit silent.

Yan Huan breathed a sigh of relief and took out his cell phone from his pocket.

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Wait a minute, Sister Shiyu, should I sweep you or you sweep me?"

"Sweep me."

"it is good."

Ye Shiyu took out her cell phone, and under the light in the room, Yan Huan could clearly see that her name was still written on the back of her phone case.

Without thinking too much, Yan Huan opened Plane's scan interface, and she unlocked her phone and handed it to Yan Huan.

"."

The phone's camera was aimed at the screen, but what was displayed on the screen she handed over was not a QR code for adding friends, but a vortex that was flashing an evil purple and constantly rotating, like the interface of an APP.

The vortex continued to spin, gradually getting faster and faster.
Hey, this is it?

Yan Huan was stunned for a second, but soon he realized something and his pupils shrank suddenly.

No, this is...
In the next second, as the vortex spun, Ye Shiyu's eyes seemed to darken ten thousand times along with the darkness outside the corridor, dragging Yan Huan's consciousness like an abyss.
"Di!"

The APP in her hand sent a notification sound that symbolized some kind of signal. At the same time, Yan Huan also heard an illusory voice coming from the other party.
【APP has been launched】

[Effect: Individual Hypnosis]

[Duration: 15 minutes]

【Timer, start.】
