The package has assigned me way too many objects.

Chapter 150 Is this how you pamper someone?

“Brother, this is Nathel Highgri, the second daughter of the Nathel family,” Marissa whispered behind Chu Yinan, then added about the family’s background: “They are one of the top families on the island, and they have good relations with the Bachmann and Lefie families.”

Oh?

Chu Yinan extracted the key information: one of the top families on Rongguang Island, that was indeed the source of her arrogance, but she was on good terms with both the school doctor's mother's family and the Le Fei family, so what gave her the right to be so arrogant?

Chu Yinan had appeared in front of this senior student using his real name before, and even Dalena had stepped in to help him prove his identity. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have reacted this way upon hearing about his Leffe family background.

There aren't many reasons that come to mind. Perhaps it's due to some personal reason that this senior, Hagrid, is unfriendly towards the Leffe family, or perhaps it's a private matter concerning her family's attitude towards the Leffe family...

The senior student with the elegant curly hair looked at Chu Yinan and said:

"When I last saw this classmate, I didn't recognize that you were the young man sitting next to Mrs. Morgan at the banquet. Why are you here instead of serving Mrs. Morgan properly? And what do you mean by this now?"

"Is your junior, Marissa, hiding behind you playing a trick on me? Last time she claimed to have a sore throat, and I showed her plenty of care. Doesn't she have any intention of repaying that kindness? As a nun in a convent, don't she have even the slightest gratitude towards her donor?"

Almost every family makes donations to the monastery; these expenses are considered a matter of prestige, but since the donations are from the family, they certainly weren't made by Hagrid herself.

Marissa knew that Chu Yinan was now representing the Lefie family at the school, and she didn't want to get caught in the middle and cause him trouble, nor did she want Mrs. Morgan to have to explain things to her afterwards.

"Brother, it's okay if I go help out for two days..."

Chu Yinan still shielded her behind him, shook his head at her, and looked at the senior student again:

"I'll answer for her: no. You seem to think too highly of yourself. Do you feel it's a great honor to be 'appreciated' by you, and that others owe you something?"

All eyes turned to them. Many students who had originally wanted to ask the vocal club for a copy of the singing recording had now turned to watching the spectacle with a more curious attitude.

Heigli looked down on Chu Yinan because her family said that this young man might be Morgan's kept man, and that it was normal for him to satisfy his needs in his prime. However, she didn't know what had gotten into her to bring it out into the open.

So while others regarded Chu Yinan as a member of the Lefie family who rarely showed his face, Haigri only saw him as a sycophant who had attached himself to Glory and, relying on the Lefie family's reputation, unleashed his ill-mannered stench in front of her!

"Judging from your name, isn't there a story of 'Bole recognizing a horse' in your hometown? Hasn't Mrs. Morgan noticed how shallow your manners are? You don't even understand the gratitude for being appreciated, especially by the Nasser family!"

Chu Yinan didn't expect her to spout such strange things. A discerning eye like Bo Le recognizes a fine horse and doesn't want to embarrass a good horse. You're just using Marissa as an example. Does she need you to prove how beautiful her voice is?

"You're overthinking it. Does a snow lotus on a snow-capped mountain need to be grateful for being appreciated by weeds? You're trying to use the monastery as an excuse, thinking that Marissa is living off the rice your family donated, but don't forget that the Lefie family also donated. If you want Marissa to bring more glory to your organization's achievements, then you should come and invite her honestly, with a friendly expression and gratitude. You have no manners at all!"

Chu Yinan took a few steps closer to her. Due to the height difference, he lowered his head slightly to look down at her and said in a cold voice:

"You still want Marisa to be grateful for your appreciation? Do you even deserve it? In terms of appearance, you're just average. In terms of grades, you have to rely on others. If you don't take your family background into account, you're nothing. Even if you include your family background, you're just a fart that your parents accidentally let out. Who gave you the confidence to think you're better than Marisa?"

I've always treated Marissa like a precious jewel, so how dare you act so arrogantly towards her?

Marissa hid behind Chu Yinan, too embarrassed to listen to him. She gently nudged him, signaling him not to say anything so embarrassing, especially with so many people around.

The onlookers were sweating profusely; this was tantamount to a direct insult to the Nasser family. They dared not continue watching, lest they be accused of inciting a public humiliation of Miss Hagrid and become the target of their ire.

The crowd that had been gathered there just moments before vanished in an instant, disappearing faster than eels.

Chu Yinan remained calm and composed, meeting Haigri's angry gaze, and glanced behind her with a look of childlike curiosity:

"Huh? You don't have any followers? I thought there would be a scene where a follower comes to beat me up. I have a lot of fighting power but nowhere to use it. I thought I would have a chance to test the face of a noble lady and see if it would feel better to fight. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving. If you're not satisfied, go find Heinrich."

In situations like this, mentioning the woman's father's name is the most reassuring thing to do.

Chu Yinan wanted to visit other clubs and departments with Marissa and have some fun. They couldn't just go back to the classroom to study, could they? They might as well go and see if there were any young and beautiful female teachers there.

Unfortunately, because of the dispute with Haigri, those gangs were afraid of causing trouble. They were afraid that if they entertained Chu Yinan and Marissa, they would be mistaken for siding with the Nasser family and openly looking down on their family's children.

Every time Chu Yinan approached the entrance of a club, the people there reacted as if they had seen a tiger or wolf, saying they were preparing to close or hold an internal meeting and would not allow visitors.

With no other option, Chu Yinan and Marissa found a quiet spot in the park to sit down.

Yes, there is a large park on campus, which may function as a botanical garden, but it is really beautiful.

"Brother, you were too harsh with your words. I'm too embarrassed to see Mrs. Morgan and Miss Heinrich now!" Marissa scolded softly, feeling that it was her fault that Chu Yinan had dragged the Lefie family into the conflict.

Chu Yinan really didn't take it seriously:

"If I were to bow down to someone while bearing the Lefève family name, I reckon Heinrich and my aunt would be ashamed of me and drag me to fill a beaker! Besides, Marissa is no less of a person in terms of status than her. You are from Turing Tower, which is much more noble than that woman!"

"Even so, you don't have to say such shameless things in front of so many people, like 'precious treasure' and 'cherish'..." the girl said coquettishly, her blushing face particularly charming, but there was also undisguised joy in her eyes, "Aren't you ashamed to lie? The weekend before the exam, you choked me so much that my throat felt uncomfortable!"

Chu Yinan was unable to refute it.

Chapter 151 Daddy will get you a wife or maid to play with.

Being publicly humiliated by a gigolo made Hagrid's blood pressure soar. Normally, everyone treated her with deference, but now a nun from a convent and a gigolo kept by the Lefie family had made her lose face like this. She couldn't stand it, but there was really nothing she could do about it.

She had no desire to stay in the club building any longer. As she was walking back towards the teaching building, Hagrid ran into Lana, the son of the Bonaparte family, who was also Veronica's child.

Last year he was a senior at Highbury College, but today he's sheepishly back as a classmate.

Haigri didn't think much of him. His family background was one factor, but his own abilities were another. Haigri herself excelled academically and didn't care about the family's reputation, but Rana was a talented person whose achievements required the family to clean up his messes.

Veronica's headache was not without reason; he was the kind of top student that even the best teachers couldn't teach, and he couldn't even memorize the answers to the final exam questions.

“Junior Heigli, why do you look so upset? What’s making you so angry?” Lana asked.

He actually knew the reason. With such convenient information exchange, the situation in the club building was spread privately almost immediately.

However, the school's online chat group was quiet. With so many people, no one wanted to be the unlucky one to publicly discuss the Nasser family's embarrassing affairs.

“Now that you’re in the same grade as me, stop calling me ‘junior.’ As for what it is, are you trying to provoke me?” Haigley’s face darkened again.

Rana's personality was somewhat of a rogue and scoundrel. He was unfazed by being scolded and didn't take it to heart. He immediately put on a smiling face, showing no manners of a noble young master. He was more like a lackey than a sycophant.

“No, I heard that the gigolo from the Lefie family angered Miss Hagrid, so I came here specifically to help you, but it seems I’m a step too late.” Rana said regretfully and self-reproachfully.

Although his performance was somewhat vulgar, Haigri didn't take her anger out on him. At this moment, Lana ran out and cursed the pretty boy a few times, which temporarily improved Haigri's impression of him.

"I didn't attend the island banquet, but I heard some things about him from the servants. Who is he?"

“I don’t know either. We can’t find out. You know the household registration records on the artificial island are managed by AI. Even if you pay someone to check, it won’t work. But I’ve heard that the pretty boy is also close to the one from the Minagawa family. Maybe he’s not just a pretty boy.” Rana made his connection and sighed, “That Lefie family’s vicious woman is really ruthless. Did she sense something was wrong beforehand and use herself to arrange a marriage with the Minagawa family in advance to change their relationship?”

Reputation and status are subtle things; they are an invisible form of intimidation, and this intimidation requires a solid foundation and sophisticated methods to back it up. The Minagawa family has a somewhat detached feel to Eiko Island. Everyone knows that this branch was the backbone of Eiko Island when it was first established, but they stopped interfering later, so their status in the eyes of other families is naturally not clearly perceived.

Rana said, puzzled:

"It is said that Glory Island used to be the same as those disputed areas that later became independent. After it was leveled, someone left a mark on Glory Island by using my wife's surname, and designated an area as a resort. The Minagawa family no longer participates in the affairs of the island. What use is it for the Lefebvre family to look for the Minagawa family?"

Upon hearing this, Haigley's gaze returned to one of contempt, tinged with a hint of pity and sarcasm.

What's the use? How can anyone say something like that? As long as it's uncertain whether the Minagawa family's presence is still as strong as before, then it should be considered useful!

The Bonaparte family, on the other hand, was truly pitiful. They were like they had been struck by bad luck, and by the time of Rana, the family had collectively fallen apart.

Hagrid had heard her elders talk about the Bonaparte family. Once this period of reshuffling was over, they could then divide up the Bonaparte prize. Right now, it was just a pretense of friendship.

She warned:

"Don't make any moves. Just do your own thing and stay away from me. Don't try to get close to me unless necessary. At least on the surface, my family and the Leffe family are still on good terms!"

Chu Yinan simply took Marissa back to the manor without attending class.

After asking the maid, Chu Yinan learned that Heinrich and Aunt Morgan had returned, so he took Marissa over to say hello.

"Aunt, Heinrich, what are you looking at? Marissa and I are back ahead of schedule." Chu Yinan shrank on the way back to avoid confusing the maids in the manor.

The house was warm and cozy. Morgan, dressed in a sexy black dress, with elegant lace gloves on her pale arms and a knitted shawl with a fur collar draped over her shoulders, beckoned to her two children.

How was your time at school?

"It's alright, nothing much to do," Chu Yinan said. "But the director did have Marissa sing another song, and it was really good."

"No, it's nothing. In fact, it caused a little trouble," Marissa said apologetically.

Morgan didn't press for details, but comforted her, "It's alright, it's nothing. Marissa must be tired after playing with Xiao Chunan all afternoon. Go and keep Darlene company, she misses you too."

The implication was that Marissa should leave for a while, and Marissa understood, so she left first.

Chu Yinan, recalling what had happened today, first asked:

"How are the Lefebvre and Nasser families?"

"It's an alliance, a friendship from the previous generation. Our two families have many connections in business cooperation abroad," Morgan said succinctly.

"But I feel that the Nasser family is in a rather ambiguous state right now. I'm not trying to complain in a roundabout way, but I feel that the Nasser family is a bit disloyal to this alliance. Their second daughter didn't seem very respectful when I mentioned the Lefèvre family's name. This attitude may have come from their elders."

"And has something important happened at St. Hua Palace Academy recently? I see a lot of familiar faces."

Morgan turned her gaze to Heinrich, and from the look in Heinrich's eyes, she sensed that Heinrich hadn't revealed it beforehand, and couldn't help but sigh:

"Little Chunan is such a perceptive child. He made so many discoveries after just one trip. You're pretty much right about what happened."

Heinrich added, "Glory Island's former enemy was the Isaacs' circle. The Isaacs used to be a genius race in business, but now they've declined, and Glory Island is thinking about a reshuffling. There are still a few old guys in the Lefebvre family who are plotting with outsiders to bring down your aunt, but they still lack some imagination about Turing Tower's capabilities."

Holy crap! Is it that serious?

"So what were you doing just now...?" Chu Yinan swallowed, worried for her aunt, "were you struggling with how to break the deadlock?"

His aunt hugged him, shrugged, and gestured for Heinrich to speak. Heinrich then said:

"It is indeed a problem, but not a problem of how to break the deadlock. This time, the other side has formed a large alliance, and even some of the traitors that the Isaacs planted in the artificial island's joint council have been brought in."

"And then?" Chu Yinan noticed a hint of anticipation on Heinrich's face; she seemed to be waiting for something.

"It's Veronica, the one you met before, remember?"

"You used her data to make a mold, and you even asked Sister Qilin to make a doll maid for me to play with, remember?"

"She's probably worried that the next generation won't be able to manage the family business, so she wants to expand the business as much as possible in the present. She ignored warnings and went to make trouble with Nasser's people. I even warned her once by showing her the doll maid."

Next time, let her come and pay off the debt in person. Find another maid for Xiao Chunan and see if Veronica herself is as capable as a puppet maid.

However, there's one thing you need to know, Xiao Chunan, about one of your brothers/sisters.

------

PS: I heard from a group member last time that the two female villains, Director Deepwater and Veronica, had to secretly visit the Leffe family's mansion to do something unspeakable in order to pay off their debts, behind their husbands' backs and enduring humiliation.

This is terrifying! How come all the people in this group are like this?!

Chapter 152 Marissa is still a child!

Chu Yinan's expression immediately turned serious. How could this involve my brothers and sisters?

His thinking was very clear, and he immediately judged that Heinrich was probably referring to the sisters he had not yet met. Could it be that some noble family had taken one of the sisters away to cause trouble?
