The package has assigned me way too many objects.

Minagawa Izumi placed him on the sofa, then knelt on one knee, bent over and looked down at him. Because his body temperature was high after taking a bath, Chu Yinan could feel a warm, fragrant breeze coming from between the peaks that were lowered by gravity.

"You're so tiny, I'm afraid I'll crush you."

"Don't worry, I'm very strong and resilient!"

Chu Yinan patted his thigh. Minakawa Izumi couldn't dissuade him, so he went along with the little guy's wishes and sat on his small body. However, because he was worried that his weight would hurt him, he didn't dare to lower his center of gravity completely at once.

Is it heavy?

"It's not heavy!"

Chu Yinan was forced into a corner of life by an overwhelming sense of oppression, and the smooth and round fleshy peach made his heart race.

Chu Yinan pretended to be calm and, mimicking the woman's earlier technique, helped her tousle her hair and used a hairdryer to dry the dampness between her strands.

Usually, she was seen with her hair up and adorned with hairpins, but suddenly, seeing her let down her long, dark hair, Chu Yinan picked up a strand and inhaled its scent.

To put it simply, it's the fragrant scent of shampoo; to put it more broadly, it's the aura of a female demon, the pheromones emanating from her body that make Chu Yinan's heart race and his blood surge.

The female monster sat down on something and sighed softly, "She said she wouldn't turn into a bigger size, what a cunning little devil."

The woman seemed to have no intention of drying his hair. She sat up slightly, her bathrobe clinging to her skin, outlining the vague, full, and beautiful peach-shaped contours of her body.

Seeing the little guy pouting as he held the hairdryer, the mature and dignified woman feigned slight displeasure, her face stern:

"You're getting upset now. Do you still want to continue blow-drying my hair?"

"I did think about it." Chu Yinan nodded, trying to suppress the intrusive thing in front of him with his hands, but failed and had to give up.

"How long have you been calling me 'female monster' all this time? Say something nice, sweet, and natural, and I'll consider it."

Chu Yinan is not good at praising people. In the past, when he got angry while playing games, he would say a few sweet words with a lot of "mother" connotations. The most polite thing he said was to praise those players who used cheat software by saying "Your mother is so beautiful and great". What nice and natural words of praise can he think of now?

"Can I call you Monster Sister?" Chu Yinan asked tentatively, the hairdryer in her hand still buzzing.

Minagawa Izumi didn't seem to care much about these compliments about older sisters, probably because she had seen too many of her ancestors who were ageless monsters.

"Too stiff."

"Auntie Monster?" Chu Yinan tried calling her that, but it felt too formal. She misspoke and accidentally uttered "Mom." Meeting Minagawa Izumi's gaze, Chu Yinan awkwardly stammered to finish her sentence: "Mom, Mom, you are so beautiful."

"..." Minagawa Izumi flicked his forehead, then suddenly changed the subject, "Did you put on your pants without drying yourself off just now? You made my yukata all wet. Take them off quickly or you'll catch a cold."

The damp underwear lay on the floor, and the two people on the sofa continued drying their hair in the same positions they had been in before.

The woman's legs were smooth and plump, with a perfect fit that rivaled that of a young girl.

Chapter 38 They're kicking people out!

Heinrich is now desperate. She is not a noisy person. Although she is the talkative type, she prefers to have long periods of quiet to soothe her mind and body. She occasionally talks for ten minutes or so as a way to calm herself down.

But after the little brat in the family ran away from home for a few days, Heinrich's peaceful life was gone forever. The most comfortable day was that night when he went out of the island to clean up the small fish.

"Heinrich, didn't you say Xiao Chunan would come back? It's been so many days, where has he gone!" Yan Liu had been nagging her countless times.

The blonde woman absentmindedly picked at her ears, not to remove earwax, but because she felt a buzzing sound in her ear canals.

Even the usually composed Heinrich was somewhat affected by Yan Liu's sorrow, and she patiently comforted her:

“I took you to Turing Tower last time, he wasn’t inside, was he? He can go to many places: his classmates’ homes, the main house on Glory Island, the home of the female prosecutor who took him under her wing, and the Minagawa family’s house where he sneaked off last time. Don’t worry.”

Yan Liu knew she had been talking about Heinrich too much lately, but she still couldn't help wanting to know how the little guy was doing. Even if she didn't want to meet him for the time being, sending a message to let him know or making a phone call occasionally would be fine, right?

"If something is really wrong, even if there's something he can't figure out, why doesn't he talk to his family face-to-face first? What good will it do now besides making his family worry?"

The woman bit her red lips, somewhat angry—angry at her son's willfulness, and also angry at herself. He had always been sensible, obedient, and well-behaved, but now he had suddenly become willful. The problem must be her own fault.

Yan Liu was angry at his willfulness, but also angry that he wouldn't give her a chance to talk face to face. Not only did he not talk to her in person, but he also just suddenly said "I don't want to go back" on the phone and then hung up, then put the phone on Do Not Disturb and wouldn't answer any messages or calls.

Heinrich sat in his beloved engineering chair, spinning around and around, trying to fight fire with fire, using dizziness to counteract his helplessness and headache.

She even regretted not catching Xiao Chunan back then, otherwise her ears wouldn't have been constantly strained.

Yu Tang is really something. She's already in contact with her little brother, so why doesn't she come over and try to persuade him? Even if she can't persuade him, it would be great if she could at least help her, as his father, share the burden.

"Relax~ Children always go through a rebellious phase. Xiao Chu Nan has been well-behaved for so many years, it's normal for him to enter a rebellious phase. Once he understands things, they will pass. Once the knot in his heart is gone, he will naturally come back."

The best course of action is for him to not be home right now.

"How could it be the best!" Yan Liu sullenly, her chest heaving with anger, her bulging breasts heaving violently.

“Everyone has things they care about, and children are no exception. Now you know why he left. He was angry and very emotional. He had already been feeling down for a week after seeing his older sister leave, and now he suddenly found the photos you hid. Do you think he can calmly explain and discuss things with you?”

"And you might think this is a small matter, after all, those photos were important memories, and hiding them is understandable. But if Xiao Chunan sees your indifferent attitude, wouldn't the conflict and estrangement be even more serious than they are now?"

Heinrich continued to explain calmly, and Yan Liu was so moved by her tone that she calmed down considerably. She always maintained this level of rationality, and aside from when she failed to land a fisherman, she was generally this composed.

"So, I think it was quite appropriate for Xiao Chunan to run away from home this time. The first thing to do after emotions and conflicts is not to mediate or explain, but to calm down the emotions. Putting everything else aside, going out for a walk to clear your mind is also a good thing."

"When will he be back? It's been several days already. Is he eating well outside? He's such a picky eater." Yan Liu frowned, clasping her hands together.

"Why not? It's not like he can't eat it even if he doesn't like it. He always eats until he's full of nutrition before stopping. It's the same when he's out. Maybe he'll come back if he misses the food at home... Besides, I think he must have secretly contacted Yutang. You should ask Yutang about it."

Upon hearing this news, Yan Liu felt it was very likely, and even if she wasn't sure, it was necessary to ask Yu Tang about the situation.

"Okay, then I'll go find Yutang."

After watching his wife leave the study, Heinrich rubbed his temples and quickly contacted Fuxi:

“Fu Xi, find some time to bring Xiao Chunan back. Tell him that you won’t give him so much time to wander around anymore. I can’t take it anymore.”

Fu Xi: ......

Isn't this just making things difficult for me? If Xiao Chunan had gone to someone else's house, it would have been fine; they could have just kidnapped her and taken her away without any problem. But now she's going to the Minagawa Izumi family's house, so they can't just go in and disturb her.

------------

Early in the morning, Chu Yinan was forced to wake up. He rubbed his eyes and crawled out of the warm bed.

"She-monster, why are you pinching my nose? I can't breathe." Chu Yinan was still half asleep, and his address reverted to his usual form.

Chu Yinan thought the female monster was quite strange. She looked dignified and mature, and would occasionally play pranks on him, but she wouldn't go too far. She was just teasing him. No wonder she was a woman with a nice butt. She was so tactful in everything she did!

"It's time to eat breakfast, or it will get cold."

This time, Minagawa Izumi gently flicked his head. Chu Yinan was originally very sleepy, but his male instincts and sense of crisis made him shudder. He wanted to protest, but remembering what happened last night, he obediently got out of bed to wash up, brush his teeth, and eat breakfast.

Breakfast was simple: steamed eggs with a small bowl of vegetarian noodles, but it was nutritious enough. The clear noodle soup looked bland, but it was actually quite delicious, just not the sour kind that Chu Yinan liked.

Minagawa Izumi sat next to him, watching him slurp his noodles, occasionally wiping his mouth with a napkin:

"Shouldn't this naughty kid go home? He's probably had enough time to clear his head, right?"

Chu Yinan swallowed the noodles in his mouth, frowned, and said:

"Why are you kicking me out as soon as I wake up!"

"Don't tell me you don't want to go back and will just stay with me forever?" the woman retorted.

Chu Yinan hesitated for a moment, wondering if this was some kind of trap. If he said he wouldn't be with the female monster, would he be unable to come in the future? But the woman seemed to hear his thoughts and immediately dispelled his concerns.

"You can come to see me again in the future, you don't need to come in person. Just tell Qilin and the others and have them bring you here. Now that you've cleared your head, it's best to go back as soon as possible. The timing of a face-to-face conversation is also very important. Don't assume that everyone will tolerate another person's temper indefinitely."

"Then I'll go back in a bit?"

"Whatever you want~ Just do what you think is best. Remember to call Marissa and the others next time you come."

Chapter 39 Direct Conversation

As soon as Chu Yinan stepped out the door, he began to wonder if the female demon had been waiting to get rid of him all along, since Fu Xi had already parked the car waiting for him at the door.

"You look like you don't want to go back, but didn't you already call a car?" the woman said.

Chu Yinan was puzzled, but didn't dwell on the details; he was going back anyway.

"I'll head back now, I'll come find you again next time."

"Okay, go back obediently~"

Minagawa Izumi took the little guy's hand, helped him into the car, and watched the car until it reached the end of the road before turning back into the house.

Chu Yinan sat in the car, watching the finish line distance numbers on the monitor decrease steadily, feeling quite calm.

I remember the last time I ran away from home, I only stayed for one night. When I got home, I was very uneasy. But this time, I don't feel like I did anything wrong, and I don't feel much guilt.

But if we're talking about anger, or the rage and dejection I felt when I first ran away from home, those feelings are gone. They've probably dissipated over the past few days, and now is the perfect time to talk things out calmly.

Fu Xi's projection appeared in the back seat, next to Chu Yinan. Her legs were crossed, and the high heels on her toes swayed gently, making Chu Yinan's gaze involuntarily move to her feet.

Logically, the AI ​​characters' designs are all perfectly modeled, but looking at these jade feet, the female monster's feet are still more beautiful, and I don't know why.

"I was still worried about how to pick you up and take you back, but I didn't expect you to have already made plans."

"I didn't really make any plans on my own; I was kicked out by the female monster. I hadn't even finished breakfast before she started urging me to go back."

Chu Yinan took off his shoes and lay down directly on the sofa cushion. If Fu Xi had used a puppet body to come over, Chu Yinan could have rested his head on her lap. Unfortunately, it was a projection, and Chu Yinan simply passed through the projection.

Fu Xi ignored his out-of-place behavior and asked:

"So what are your plans for the talks after you go back? What if they go well, and what if they fall apart?"

This is a case of being prepared for a rainy day. If the outcome is not satisfactory, Yan Liu will definitely continue to nag Heinrich, and Heinrich will naturally put pressure on them. They need to be prepared to deal with it.

Chu Yinan had thought about this before, and had even prepared for the worst.

"If we've reached an agreement... then it should be like before, right? But this time I didn't make a big scene or tear things apart, which is already considered making a big deal out of it. I don't know if things can still be the same as before. If we haven't reached an agreement, I'll just go back to the tower, or stick to the female monster's side and freeload off her, and maybe drag Marissa over to eat with me too!"

Back then, Chu Yinan was a man of principle who wouldn't even take an internship for free. Now, life has worn down his edges and softened his spine, and he's starting to plan his life as a kept man.

Down on his luck!

"Don't be so pessimistic. Let's see how things go. Anyway, we're here to support your little bit of whims. Keeping a little rascal in the tower won't be a problem."

Chu Yinan sat up and said seriously, "Since it's about comforting you, it's okay to put it nicely, right? What nonsense! I'm a freelancer!"

"But I think it would be better to put aside any grudges and make up, that way it would be much easier for you to get along with Delia and Darlena, wouldn't it?"

"That's just a secondary factor! The key issue is still how I define my role!"
