Chu Yinan was so frightened that she didn't dare to delay. She hurriedly used her palm to hold up the heavy, beautiful, and plump fruit, and after fixing the measuring tape in place, she had Yan Liu coordinate her breathing to measure the value of her lower chest.

Chu Yinan wasn't sure if this value was related to lung capacity developed through exercise habits or if it was innate, as Yan Liu's lower chest circumference changed quite a bit with breathing.

Measuring the upper chest circumference is much more difficult. Not only is it difficult for the measuring tape to land at the wrong spot, but you also need to change your standing posture to take the measurement. Chu Yinan was glad that he didn't stand next to a kindergarten child. Even though he was a little short, he could easily reach the appropriate height requirement by using a stool. Otherwise, he might have had to lie on Yan Liu's back to measure.

The upright standing posture is the easiest to measure, requiring little adjustment. Just find the "point" and tighten the measuring tape to get the data. However, the slanted standing posture and the right-angle bent standing posture are really difficult for Chu Yinan.

In this position, Chu Yinan had some difficulty controlling the measuring tape, and it was easy for him to measure off-center. He had to reach out and adjust the position of the tape from time to time to make sure it was on the measuring point. However, for someone without experience, confirming the point was also a difficult task.

Because not everyone is the same, some people can show the entire Northern Hemisphere above the equator without any problem, but others can't; it's purely a matter of genetics.

What can we do then? We have to carefully explore and figure things out.

"Strange, why are the data the same in all three positions? Logically speaking, shouldn't it change due to gravity?" Chu Yinan was puzzled. Was Aunt Liu made of stone?

Yan Liu sat back on the sofa, rubbing Chu Yinan's cheek in annoyance. Just hearing Chu Yinan's question, Yan Liu knew the reason, or rather, she knew from the beginning where the mistake lay:

"Try to recall the process again."

Soon, Chu Yinan realized the problem and understood that this might be an impossible task: "Because Aunt Liu's current underwear has fixed its shape... It seems that when taking measurements by hand, it is best not to leave any upper body equipment."

"Would you like to try it on again in the changing room with Aunt Liu?" Yan Liu's smile radiated maternal warmth, but Chu Yinan felt heavy-hearted.

"No, no!" Chu Yinan shook his head like a rattle.

Yan Liu didn't make things difficult for him anymore, and pulled Chu Yinan to stroll among the underwear racks:

"Guess which set sells best? Let's buy it for Yutang to wear."

Chapter 67 Do you know about the Emperor's New Clothes?

Choosing underwear is one thing, but choosing it for my sister is another.

If she really knew how to dress, then Chu Yinan felt he would pick the most outrageous outfit, like a black bodysuit with stockings, as sexy as you wanted.

However, the erotic aspect of this type of clothing disappeared about five or six years ago, and it became one of the most ordinary clothes. The reason for this was that a strange movement against revealing women's clothing was once on the rise. In order to respond to this movement, some female celebrities, who did not want to affect their market value, wore a layer of black silk gauze under their low-cut evening gowns and strapless tops that revealed their breasts to cover their skin.

The movement eventually fizzled out, but these kinds of erotic clothing inexplicably became "ordinary clothing" in the public eye, or even formal attire for "conservative women."

But it's clearly more erotic...

"Forget it, if I'm picky, Yu Tang will just find an excuse to make trouble for me and give me a hard time," Chu Yinan politely declined.

"Alright, I'll go back and take a nap first. Just ten minutes, or I'll turn into a dummy this afternoon."

Hearing about the afternoon nap, Chu Yinan couldn't help but yawn, as he did feel a bit sleepy: "By the way, Aunt Liu, if you see any more prompts or reminders in your AI personal service later, let me know."

Yan Liu was puzzled: "Has Fu Xi and Qilin not been repaired yet?"

"Uh... no, it's because of the social problem of declining birth rate. The strictness of many things will be raised, and some strange things will change very quickly. Plus, next month other AIs will be coming to Twin Islands to work."

Chu Yinan felt that his explanation was rather muddled, and Yan Liu was also confused, but she didn't pay much attention. She just understood that the AI ​​side was also having a tough time right now.

"Yeah, but a serious low birth rate would really be a problem. Even if the birth rate on the artificial island increases, it won't help if things stay the same outside the island. Those young people just entering society will probably have a hard time. Who knows, the AIs might suddenly change their personalities and force us to get married and have children," Yan Liu sighed and joked.

Chu Yinan chuckled twice, but he couldn't really laugh. He could only secretly pray that things would be resolved soon and that Aunt Liu wouldn't find out.

When she got back, Chu Yinan thought Yan Liu would use him as a pillow, but she was quite busy lately. Apparently, the trade fair was approaching, and all the major brands would be showcasing their new products. The company was discussing plans for the project, so she only cuddled Chu Yinan for a short nap before getting up to organize the documents and plans.

By 2 p.m., Yan Liu was no longer in the office. She had called the company's designers and other important members to a meeting in the conference room, leaving Chu Yinan to stay in the office with her sister and read.

"Yutang, I really admire you. How can you read a book so many times? And it's only a little over 10,000 words. You can finish reading it in half an hour, right?" Chu Yinan moved closer to her sister to be the source of the noise.

“If I were reading for entertainment, I wouldn’t read so many times. But now it’s work-related reading. If I don’t see results the first time, I have to read it a second time. Have you thought about how to boost your performance?”

Bei Yutang closed the book, rubbed her temples, and realized she was getting a little tired of reading. Books that focus on the environment and atmosphere are all good, even if you can't read them repeatedly in a short period of time.

Chu Yinan got up, stood behind Bei Yutang, and reached out to do eye exercises for her to relax her eyes. Chu Yinan wasn't sure if these eye exercises were effective, but they were definitely relaxing. When he was in elementary school, he would often fall asleep while doing eye exercises.

"I think I will be able to complete the task soon. There are already a lot of candidates who can meet my performance requirements."

The older sister sat cross-legged, shifting her attention from her book, enjoying the sensation of her younger brother's little hands rubbing against her eye sockets, and asked:

"With such confidence, those few sets of experimental underwear are not priced for ordinary families."

Bei Yutang worried that he might have some misconceptions about the pricing of underwear and didn't understand how expensive women's underwear was. Unlike men's shorts, which are cheaper, women's bras are incredibly expensive if they are even slightly better, and those "large cup" bras that require customization are even more expensive.

On top of the already high price, the products Yan Liu gave to Chu Yinan were two levels more expensive. Customers with normal incomes could definitely afford them, but the cost might be two to three months' salary.

"I know, I know." Chu Yinan nodded, even though his sister, who had her eyes closed, couldn't see his movements. "I'm actually quite curious about how this underwear can be so expensive. Is it a high-tech product with a built-in massage function, or does it have a built-in night light that shines out from the clothes at night to illuminate the way or something?"

"..."

Bei Yutang was taken aback by his bizarre idea: underwear with a built-in massage function? What are you trying to do?

She explained:

"What we're selling is the trust in design, limited editions, materials, and comfortable experience. Of course, we're also making money off those who aren't short of cash. What you think is not cost-effective might not even cost as much as a bottle of wine that someone else would normally drink for dinner. Wine is the kind of thing that has the most significant premium due to its status."

Chu Yinan thought about it and felt it made sense, after all, there must be people in the world who buy luxury cars as toys.

"I've figured it out, but it won't affect my plan. The rich woman has already been chosen, no problem."

"Who?" Bei Yutang asked curiously, but also became more cautious.

Five sets? Who else does this little guy know? Is he planning to call all the aunties who gave him red envelopes during Chinese New Year to promote his products? That's pretty reliable; those aunties seem to like him quite a bit.

Chu Yinan leaned against her sister's back, resting her weight on her, and whispered in her ear:

"Yu Tang, could you help me with this outfit? A bra and lingerie set, plus a pair of stockings—expensive brands that just match your writing fees. That premium is all about status!"

Bei Yutang was even more helpless. No wonder he was so eager to come and fawn over her. It turned out he was planning to sell one set domestically first. If she couldn't sell it later, she would probably have to go to Yan Liu and beg her to sell one set too.

"I'll let you sleep with me for a month, and you have to wear the pajamas I decide when I'm with you," the older sister said.

Chu Yinan was speechless.

Seriously, is this how you act as an older sister?

Your brother talks to you about things, and every other sentence involves sleeping together? Before it was only one or two nights, but now it's been a whole month. How come you don't even have the right to choose your own pajamas anymore?

Chu Yinan felt he had to stick to his principles and firmly say no to things he couldn't do. He asked, "What pajamas?"

The girl took her younger brother's hand away from her eyes and turned her head to look at him:

Have you ever heard the story of "The Emperor's New Clothes"?

"..."

Chapter 68 Sophistry

I just can't get along with Bei Yutang. If she doesn't want to buy, she doesn't have to make such an unreasonable request.

Fortunately, he still has many potential customers, but whether he can get them to buy is hard to say. He is wealthy, but not a tycoon.

Having money is not a reason to spend it recklessly.

"I wonder how things are going with Jiang Xuanya's situation." Chu Yinan pondered, thinking of Jin Genjun. That guy is now a prime suspect, as he's using the matching system to keep Jiang Xuanya under control while also maintaining close ties with Teacher Yizhi.

I don't know how they did it.

After taking a 20-minute nap in the air-conditioned office, Chu Yinan got up to go back to school to ask about the matter. Bei Yutang was still looking for inspiration, holding a book and pacing by the window.

“Yutang, I’m going back to school for a bit and to tell my teacher that I passed the internship. I’m worried she’ll think I’m desperate for jobs and send me offers everywhere.”

"Couldn't you just send a message about that?" But Bei Yutang didn't think much of it. "I'll go back to school then," she nodded.

"Hmm, do you want me to go back with you?"

"No need, it's just going back to school. I'll be back soon."

*

*

Back at school, the campus became quite quiet again. The only students with a lot of people in the school were probably the first-year students, while most of the second-year students had gone out for internships, and some of the third-year students had also started their internships. The older students who "stayed behind" were probably focused on pursuing certain academic studies.

However, considering the current historical context and the recent events in the cafeteria, there is a sense of desolation, like someone fleeing a disaster.

The students have all gone out, and the teachers are basically on vacation, taking turns to stay at the school to answer students' questions.

Chu Yinan checked the duty roster and found that Ms. Iori Risa was on duty today, so he could come and find her.

As Chu Yinan arrived at the office door and was about to go in, he saw that Teacher Yizhi was talking to a man again.

There aren't many teachers in the office. There are about thirty teachers per grade now, but due to students taking leave for internships, there are less than ten left.

The man was dressed in a suit and tie, and judging from his height, he should be the one who had the argument with Teacher Yizhi last time. He was probably Kim Geun-jun. Neither of them noticed Chu Yinan's appearance.

Chu Yinan pretended to be looking for another teacher, sneaking to the English teacher's seat and bending down to flip through the homework notebooks on the desk, as if he were looking for answers. (Of course, in reality, his height was the best way to conceal himself, and his arrival went completely unnoticed.)

"Risa, you should be calmed down by now. It was just an accident. I don't know the girl I was matched with at all. You've misunderstood!" the man in the suit said in a low voice.

The office is large and divided into several areas. The original intention of this layout was to prevent teachers from disturbing other teachers when answering students' questions. However, this design also gives them relatively private space because the other teachers are not in the same area.

"Are you kidding me? The matching system will basically only match you with people you know. I've only ever heard of people who are introverted and don't know many people being matched with strangers. What makes you think you fit the bill?"

Ms. Iori is usually a gentle person, and of course she maintains a certain distance in a polite way. Perhaps it's because she is often surrounded by male students trying to please her, but she rarely shows this stern expression. Her coldness makes people hesitate to approach her.

The man stood beside Iori Risa's desk. Chu Yinan couldn't see his expression, but he probably looked miserable and ingratiating. He lowered his voice:

"Okay, actually that person is the daughter of the company's vice president. My family and Vice President Jiang both wanted to match me up with that girl, but I only had symbolic contact with her and we didn't get along well. I really don't know why I was matched with her. Risa, you have to believe me!"

Okay, after hearing this, Chu Yinan was certain that this guy was Jin Genjun. There were too many coincidences—he was a vice president surnamed Jiang, and he was also a matchmaker for rich girls.

However, it's not accurate to say he's lying, because it was indeed Jiang Xuanya's father who was acting as matchmaker. According to Jiang Xuanya, Jin Genjun's contact with her was all for personal gain, that is, to climb the social ladder through marriage. From this perspective, it was really just "symbolic contact," since he wasn't truly in love, and it's a fact that he didn't have a good relationship with Jiang Xuanya.

Yes, he's an honest and "good" man!

Ms. Iori ignored him, simply crossing her arms and supporting her full breasts with her silence, indicating that she didn't believe him.

Kim Geun-joon made another move. His voice was full of deep sorrow, like a pitiful person trying to gain trust. He unlocked Iori Risa's phone with his fingerprint, tapped something, and then put on the fitness tracker she had placed next to her pencil case.

"This software is a lie detector recognized by AI. Look at the reviews; it's highly reliable."

He repeated what he had just said, and the results of the lie detector software were quickly displayed on the screen. Chu Yinan tried to peek at them, but they didn't show up. Fortunately, Jin Genjun mentioned the contents.

“Look, ‘Based on the algorithm and current theoretical results, the accuracy of this statement is 69.3%.’ I can’t prove that what I said is completely true, but the AI ​​thinks what I said is true.”

Chu Yinan needs to clarify this: the lie detector is still a pseudo-proposition, at most a toy, and cannot be completely trusted. Even if his heart rate is maintained at the level of "telling the truth" when he speaks, the problem is that many people have an inexplicable degree of trust in it.

Risa Iori's tone softened slightly, "Have you tried to break up with her? Have you asked the AI ​​why they matched?"

Kim Geun-joon seemed to have prepared his answer beforehand: "The AI ​​said that it's possible that we had a small conflict during the matching period, so we were judged to be unsuitable. In addition, the parents on the other hand strongly pushed for it, so it may have been locked onto the vice president's daughter. I haven't tried to make contact yet, because the AI's contact rules are strict now. We have to go on a date and meet in person first. I haven't asked her out yet, so there's no date or contact at all, and I can't make contact."
