P.S.: The second update will be later. I just finished my exams today, and I'll add another update when I get home (probably the day after tomorrow).
Chapter 100 The walls have ears
With so many people around, Bei Yutang wouldn't directly lecture this brat. She only went to the restroom for a short while, just to tidy her clothes and wash her hands. The total time, including walking back and forth, was no more than 5 minutes.
In just a short while, this little rascal got up to shake hands with the unfamiliar older sister and started to get acquainted with her.
Chu Yinan immediately felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. Facing his sister's death stare, a bead of cold sweat inadvertently trickled down his forehead. He then gave an awkward but polite smile, ran back into Yu Tang's arms, and hugged her black-stockinged legs.
"I was just saying hello to Sister Xuanya's friend."
If you were to compare your little brother to a puppy, Bei Yutang could vividly describe Chu Yinan's expression just now as one of pure joy, wagging his tail.
The girl knelt down, hugged Chu Yinan, and whispered gently in his ear:
"But you seemed really happy, like you'd been looking forward to something for a long time and were now over there. And you just happened to run over there a few minutes after I left."
Chu Yinan muttered to himself, he hadn't really lost his composure just now... He might have felt a little joy, but that joy was for the progress of the blind date!
Only when the progress is completed can the task be finished, and only after it is finished can it be lifted. Only after it is lifted can we have a peaceful life!
After all, Chu had been under Yu Tang's spell for many years, so he knew exactly what to do to please his sister at this time.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make; words are all pale and ineffective. Only coquetry is the way to go.
He took the initiative, hugging Yu Tang's neck and pressing his cheek against hers, without saying a word.
After all, it's the result of years of experience, and the effects are quite obvious.
Bei Yutang gently stroked her little brother's head and said tenderly, "Let's play some games tonight. Also, you need to convince your Aunt Liu yourself. If I don't see you in my room tonight, you'd better watch out."
After saying that, Yu Tang didn't pursue the matter any further. She took his hand again and waited for the group to depart.
Look! Although I don't know what will happen tonight, at least we're safe for now.
The problem arose from following the group; those support staff had to go to the restroom at this particular time of year.
Chu Yinan had been given a lot of milk by Aunt Liu during breakfast, and was just scared by Yu Tang, so he felt the urge to urinate.
"Yutang, I'm going to the restroom too... the men's room, you don't need to come with me."
With permission, Chu Yinan rushed into the bathroom, grabbed a stall, and started spraying. Normally, men would just spray the toilet seat with a water gun, but Chu Yinan, worried about exposing his impressive member, always chose a corner stall.
Just as Chu Yinan finished clearing out the inventory, he pulled up his pants and prepared to go out when he heard the logistics guys smoking and sporadically spraying water with their water guns, while they started complaining about the boss, Aunt Dong, who was leading the team.
"That old woman is such a gossip and braggart. No wonder she's a hard-working guy who struggled on the island in her early years. She called me over on the weekend to work overtime carrying equipment. I'm just a photo editor. I hinted that I was too tired and needed to rest, and she started making sarcastic remarks about me being lazy."
They heard I had studied programming languages and urged me to study harder and develop a photo editing program comparable to Turing Tower's AI. When I said I couldn't do it, they scolded me for being spineless and then boasted about their past achievements.
"This is illegal on the artificial island. Aren't you going to do something about it?"
"What a load of crap. She takes photos for members of the United National Assembly, the kind who does it full-time. She builds close relationships with them all with her smooth talk. I only started causing trouble because I didn't want to continue working here. Besides, I'm in urgent need of money right now. My girlfriend of eight years keeps dragging me out to play, and I'm short on cash."
Dude, you've been dating for eight years, aren't you planning to get married yet? No, wait, that's abrupt. It's not that he doesn't plan to; someone willing to spend so much money on their girlfriend would be eager to get married already.
Chu Yinan felt embarrassed to leave after listening to them gossip about the boss. The worst thing about talking behind someone's back is having outsiders overhear.
Won't Yu Tang suspect something after we go out? Probably not, the restroom is full of men.
After listening to the logistics staff scold Aunt Dong, they started talking about the filming event.
"That old Dong is a real oddball. She'll take on any kind of despicable job. Why do you think she told us to deliberately ignore that girl surnamed Mo? She even said it would be best to make things difficult for her in subtle ways."
"Who knows, she probably got paid. But you don't know, do you? That girl named Mo Yushu, the one in the rather conservative light pink jacket, her stage name is Lu, sells those revealing photos. I just don't know if she sells anything else. I thought she was just a filter-adjusted person, but she's actually quite nice in person, except her legs aren't as long as they are in the photos."
"Wow, that's amazing! No wonder there are so many beautiful girls in this group today. It's so rare to see girls with such great figures and top-notch looks. I can see five or six of them right now. Are they all the kind who sell themselves in private?"
"That's what Old Dong said. He said that a woman like Mo Yushu must be having affairs in private, which is why someone would pay money to get her. Otherwise, why would they target her if she's innocent?"
"The girl who was chatting with Mo Yushu was really nice, a sunny and outgoing long-legged girl. The girl with the little bean sprout was also great. I've never seen so many beautiful girls together before."
"I'll prefer those two white-collar ladies with girls; they're very classy, quiet, and intellectual, you know?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yinan frowned, silently wanting to take off his clothes and transform to go out and punish them, but he forced himself to calm down.
He had initially felt some sympathy for the plight of these working people, but now he just wanted to shove the heads of those people outside into the toilet bowl.
He thought to himself, "No, I'll deal with them later. If I beat them up now, the logistics team won't have enough manpower, and that old lady might not be able to move."
Mo Yushu's situation is quite easy to figure out; it's just her former employer. Otherwise, given her laid-back social style, it would be difficult for her to attract such a hostile response.
Last time, they were hit by the AI sisters' mechanical little fists, so they don't dare to come over now. Instead, they contacted others to mess with Mo Yushu.
We'll have to deal with that gossipy old lady soon enough. We'll also ask her who her "acquaintances" in the Joint Parliament are, since she's so arrogant.
As a farewell gift to Mo Yushu after her "breakup," let's help her vent her anger one last time.
"Stop smoking! You want to light a second one? That old bastard's going to start nagging me until I have a nervous breakdown!"
"Alright, let's go."
After confirming that the two people outside had gone far away, Chu Yinan called Marissa.
"Hey, Marissa, are you free right now?"
[Marisa: Yes, there is. Did you and Sister Yutang forget to bring anything?]
"No, could you call me later? You don't need to say anything, just give me a call. I need to use your phone to get away for a while."

P.S.: It's a bit late, lol
Chapter 101 Behind-the-Scenes Transformation!
Seeing Chu Yinan come out, Bei Yutang went over and squeezed his hand: "Did you wash your hands?"
She couldn't figure out why the little guy had stayed in the bathroom for so long, but sensing the frustration and displeasure on his face, Bei Yutang, as his older sister, didn't immediately press him for details. Instead, she asked him about washing his hands to confirm his situation.
To avoid arousing her sister's suspicion, Chu Yinan first explained, "Just now, when I was in the cubicle, I heard those two logistics staff talking badly about someone and complaining about their boss."
Oh, it's really not a good time to show your face when you hear people talking badly about you, especially if you're on the same team.
Bei Yutang glanced at the middle-aged woman leading the group and, based on Chu Yinan's words, confirmed that the group of support staff were probably people from a photography shop or something similar who had infiltrated this hobby club to boost their sales.
"Just pretend you didn't hear it. But you should still remind Jiang Xuanya to come to these kinds of club activities less often. People who are also in the business of making a living have all infiltrated, which changes the nature of the club."
Although it's annoying that Jiang Xuanya keeps trying to seduce her brother, it's okay to remind her of this. However, if it's Bei Yutang who brings it up, that stupid woman might think she's trying to get close to her.
Watching the people taking pictures in the courtyard park, Bei Yutang noticed Chu Yinan glancing at the logistics staff every now and then. She pulled him aside, gave him some water, and asked him:
"What else did those people say? Why do you see them so dissatisfied?"
“Those people are saying bad things about you!” Chu Yinan said in a low voice.
"Speaking ill of us?"
Bei Yutang was puzzled. She hadn't done anything wrong, so why was she talking badly about us? Could it be that she hadn't paid the logistics staff?
She immediately lost interest in taking photos. It was already difficult enough to make expressions for strangers, let alone pose for photos with this group of mercenary people. They hadn't even asked them to help with the lighting or taking the photos yet, and they were already thinking about money.
No...it might not be that reason. It could also be some negative assumptions about women.
Bei Yutang frowned. Women are generally averse to this kind of thing, but she didn't want to pass on her bad mood to her little brother, so she patiently and reluctantly reasoned:
"Don't take it to heart. Most guys have those kinds of thoughts. They're just joking around in private. But it's really disrespectful. Don't follow their example, Xiao Chu Nan. It's a rare opportunity to have fun, so relax."
She cupped her brother's face in her hands, pressed her thumbs to the corners of his mouth, and gently pulled out a smile on both sides.
"Little Chu Nan, you probably have similar thoughts sometimes, don't you? Confess honestly!"
The girl bent slightly, her neckline open, revealing glimpses of her alluring figure—deliberately intended for the little guy to see, so she could tease him a bit. Chu Yinan knew it was teasing, but his eyes just wouldn't listen and kept moving closer, which resulted in Yu Tang playfully flicking his nose and making him laugh.
Chu Yinan knew that Yu Tang might just think those logistics guys were making light of her body, but they could easily accuse someone of selling their body!
Well, saying the truth would only disgust her sister, so Chu Yinan went along with her wishes and told her:
"I know this is an unavoidable thought, but I can think this way about Yu Tang, but others can't. And I definitely can't stand hearing them talking nonsense about Yu Tang!"
Chu Yinan's double standards regarding his own sister are inevitable, and no amount of persuasion will change that.
Bei Yutang was amused by her younger brother's sullen yet candid expression. Instead of scolding him for his "shameless self-exposure," she cheerfully remarked:
"Yo yo yo~ I'm taking out my phone to record this. Xiao Chunan, say it again. I'll play it on repeat at home for a week after I get back later."
Chu Yinan quickly shut up and stopped talking.
The photography crew over there had almost finished taking pictures, but they hadn't yet reached the location chosen by Jiang Xuanya and Mo Yushu. They had just taken some photos of the surrounding scenery with their phones.
The people taking photos here are other couples or groups of friends who don't know each other. Among them, two girls are talking on their phones from time to time.
It's unclear whether he was live-streaming his trip to Glory Island with friends or doing an outdoor live stream.
Chu Yinan's focus naturally shifted to the logistics team. He noticed that during this time, the older woman pretended to warmly invite Mo Yushu and the others to take photos.
They probably wanted to invite them over but were turned away, and then wait for them to accept the invitation to take photos, leaving them hanging.
However, Mo Yushu and Jiang Xuanya are both very good at makeup. They understand that if they apply makeup too early for a shoot, their faces will become oily in no time. And since this is not the location they chose, they naturally declined.
"The next stop is the place that Sister Xuanya and the others have decided on. At that time, these logistics guys should start causing trouble. Marissa should be calling by now, right?"
By the way, the next stop is near the Lefèvre family's manor. We'll take photos nearby first, and then plan to go inside the manor to take photos.
A short while later, the group began to head towards Lefie Manor. Halfway there, Chu Yinan's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and then showed the screen to Yu Tang.
"Yutang, Marisa called me. I'm going to go over there to take the call and see what Marisa wants to talk to me about."
"Shall I go with you? Marissa seems to have gone back to Glory Island today, right? Should we ask her to come along? We can treat it as a walk."
If his sister came with him, how could he, Chu, transform? Of course, he refused.
"No need. It seems we're heading to Lefie Manor. I know the way. Yutang, you can stay with Delia and the others for now."
"Alright then, don't go too far."
------------
Shortly after Chu Yinan left, signs of conflict soon emerged within the group.
The streets near Le Fayette are meticulously designed, with trees trimmed and streets cleaned by professionals, making them excellent spots for photography.
Mo Yushu's arrangement here is to take photos in casual clothes and not change clothes for the time being, because Jiang Xuanya told her that someone has made arrangements for the noble manor so that they can go in to take photos, so Mo Yushu plans to focus on that.
However, she had her eye on the street scene before, and of course she wanted to take a picture of it in casual clothes as a souvenir.
