The package has assigned me way too many objects.

Chu Yinan was just making a casual comment, but he didn't expect to get a serious answer. He looked through the information Valentina had sent him: "Overseas purchase records, transplant surgery application form... Wait, why are they using public funds to buy contraceptives?"

[Chu Yinan: Can I open the electronic lock next to me?]

Valentina: You can't.

A message popped up on his phone: Bei Yutang had arrived. Chu Yinan had to put his little schemes on hold and ran downstairs to greet his sister.

Upon meeting, Bei Yutang immediately said, "Have you finished reading? If you have, I'll take you home right now."

Chu Yinan remained silent. There were still several episodes to go: "Not yet! How can you be thinking of leaving so soon after you've just arrived! We've all paused our schedules to wait for you!"

Bei Yutang sighed: "What's the point of waiting for this? It's much better to watch it at double speed."

However, since it was her first time visiting someone else's home, Bei Yutang still observed proper etiquette and did not continue to put on a sour face as she usually did when she didn't get along with Jiang Xuanya.

Upon entering, she greeted the beautiful woman and Jiang Xuanya who came out to greet her, introduced herself, and naturally chatted with Li Xuanen about women's topics such as makeup.

Jiang Xuanya looked at Bei Yutang in disbelief. Could it be that they've changed the person?

"I usually see you rarely talking to people, but it turns out you can socialize normally, except when you're arguing..."

"What are you saying? At school, I just spend all my time on my own things." Bei Yutang maintained her smile.

My own business? Going to sleep! Jiang Xuanya thought to herself.

Li Xuan'en nodded in agreement with Bei Yutang's words, and gently put her arm around her daughter's shoulder, saying, "Xuanya, Yutang has clear goals of her own, you should learn more from her."

Jiang Xuanya looked at Jiang Xuanya strangely and decided not to expose her past, lest they start arguing at the door.

--------

The second-floor screening room was packed with people.

With more people around, the focus of attention on the film naturally shifted from "watching" to "discussing," especially for Chu Yinan, who became excited as soon as the scene of the villainous older sister appeared.

"Aunt HyunEun is so pretty!"

Lee Hyun-eun gently stroked his head, trying to calm him down: "There's no need to get so excited. You're making me feel embarrassed. You're making me want to crawl into a hole."

"Why? Didn't you act very well and put in a lot of effort?"

Chu Yinan's current mindset is probably that of a devoted fan, enjoying the joy of watching her favorite works with her childhood goddess.

Lee Hyun-eun didn't know how to explain it to him, but seeing the little guy's happy expression, she felt both surprised and gratified.

The child she found appealing turned out to be a fan of hers from many years ago!

Bei Yutang doesn't object to her brother's contact with Li Xuanen. What thoughts could a married woman like her possibly have about her brother? However, to prevent Chu Yinan's excitement from being exploited by Jiang Xuanya, Bei Yutang has to step in and pour cold water on it.

"Chu Nan, if you don't understand, just think about how my mom usually plays videos of you as a baby at home."

Just hearing it, without even having time to imagine it, gave Chu Yinan goosebumps as a conditioned reflex.

"...I understand."

"There are those kinds of videos?! Can we see them? My mom really wants to see them," Jiang Xuanya said.

"...?" Lee Hyun-eun looked puzzled. "You child, if you wanted to see it yourself, why did you bring me into this?"

Halfway through the movie, Chu Yinan had already gotten close to Li Xuanen and sat in her lap. This kind of graceful and voluptuous touch was something he had only ever experienced with Yan Liu.

He quietly probed deeper:

"Aunt Hyun-eun, what's it like being an actress? Is it a profession you like?"

The beautiful woman, her black hair tied back, was lost in memories. She said:

"I guess so, at least it used to be. It's really fulfilling to bring a character to life through your own efforts. Even if it's a negative character that's not likable in the story, if you can successfully make the audience hate the character, that's a success for the actor."

“I really like the female villain played by Hyun Eun. When I first watched it when I was a child, I thought the character was great.”

"I feel like other kids watch Ultraman, but you watch Ultraman to see which older sister is pretty?" Lee Hyun-eun laughed as she exposed Chu Yinan's little thoughts.

"No way!" Chu Yinan retorted stubbornly, then tentatively asked, "Then why didn't they act anymore? I thought I'd see Aunt Hyun Eun in another series."

Chapter 58 Fate, Ineffable

"I'm too old now, so it's naturally not suitable for me to take photos anymore."

Lee Hyun-eun's answer was simple and natural, with no significant change in her expression.

However, this kind of answer is usually equivalent to "skipping the question." Chu Yinan understood this meaning and did not continue to ask.

Should we ask Jiang Xuanya how she came to her senses and gave up her dream?

It's really infuriating, and besides, in this situation, even if there really is something going on, I doubt they'd say it out loud.

It seems that today is not the right time to pry. If there really is something, we can only get inside information from the AI ​​sisters.

Chu Yinan brought up the "clothes" that Jiang Xuanya had mentioned yesterday and asked expectantly, "Yesterday, Sister Xuanya said that Aunt Xuan'en kept her old performance outfits?"

"Fake!"

Lee Hyun-eun denied it shyly, recalling that her daughter had told her to wear a welcoming outfit to greet little guests before going to bed last night. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red. It was almost as embarrassing as making someone her age wear a JK uniform.

"Xuan Ya lied to you, hit her."

The gentle wife grabbed a section of Chu Yinan's forearm and gently slapped it against Jiang Xuanya's arm. Jiang Xuanya instinctively dodged, but Chu Yinan's hand irresistibly climbed to the "peak".

Fortunately, neither Jiang Xuanya nor Li Xuan'en paid any attention. Instead, Jiang Xuanya noticed that Chu Yinan kept glancing at her.

Jiang Xuanya thought Chu Yinan was questioning the performance costume. As the older sister, she couldn't lose the trust of her younger brother, so she secretly pointed to the wardrobe next door and mouthed "wardrobe".

This indicates that the performance costumes kept as souvenirs are stored in the wardrobe.

Chu Yinan didn't realize what was going on and thought Jiang Xuanya wanted him to hide in the closet and pretend to be a lover, and that he wouldn't be going back with Bei Yutang tonight.

But that's not realistic. Yu Tang will definitely take him back, and it's not good for him to stay overnight at someone else's house.

Chu Yinan frowned, shook his head seriously, and conveyed with his eyes: No, no, I'll do it next time.

Jiang Xuanya was stunned. What did this little guy mean by shaking his head? And why was his face so serious?

Could it be that she didn't see Aunt Hyun Eun change her clothes, her expectations were disappointed, and now she's angry?

"Mom, I already agreed to Chu Yinan's request for you yesterday, so why don't you..." Jiang Xuanya suggested.

"Go away, go away. You promised yourself, so wear it yourself." Li Xuan'en didn't give her daughter any face and said with a slight reproach, "Besides, the role I played back then was a villain. Are you planning to let Chu Yinan have some immersion in the role and defeat me, the villain?"

Chu Yinan's eyes lit up. "I'll take down the female villain that even Ultraman couldn't defeat!"

Bei Yutang couldn't let Jiang Xuanya launch her mother's offensive, actually using her mother's advantage as an actress to seduce her own little brother. This was unacceptable.

"Chu Nan is past that childish age, and the clothes have to be matched with that kind of dark smoky makeup for a villainous image. Makeup is very troublesome. Do you want to ruin the childhood role in Chu Nan's heart? What if it alienates Aunt Hyun-eun and his relationship?"

Li Xuanen glanced gratefully at Bei Yutang. She never expected that someone else's daughter would come to help her. Sure enough, the daughters she raised were all there to cause trouble for their mothers.

"Exactly, this is nonsense... But Yu Tang, what's with calling Chu Yinan? Why do you call him Chu Nan?"

"It's just an abbreviation. A three-character title sounds like an accusation, while a two-character title implies a nickname. So when Chu Yinan is at home, his family usually calls him Chu Nan or Little Chu Nan."

You're the only one who calls me Chu Nan! If you had set a precedent by calling me "Yi Nan," would my nickname be so strange now?

Chu Yinan's fist hardened!

Lee Hyun-eun suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. That makes sense. If you call someone by their name with three characters, it sounds like you're in a bad mood and about to swear. Can I call you Xiao Chu Nan from now on?"

"It's okay." Chu Yinan thought to himself, how could I possibly say no?

The gathering at Jiang Xuanya's house came to an end quickly. I didn't watch much of the four episodes that aired today; we mostly just chatted.

"It's lunchtime. Would you like to stay at my place for a simple meal and a rest before heading back?" Jiang Xuanya extended a warm invitation, pulling the adorable little boy from Bei Yutang's arms, and then reluctantly added, "Yutang, why don't you come too?"

"Hmm, it's your first time here, wouldn't it be nice if you stayed for a meal?" Lee Hyun-eun thought it was a good idea, and besides, she wanted the little boy to stay a little longer. "We ate together last time when Xiao Chunan came, my cooking skills are pretty good, right?"

Chu Yinan didn't dare to answer, she just smiled.

If we say we should stay, we'll offend my sister; if we say we shouldn't, we'll be letting down the Jiang family's mother and daughter's hospitality.

Bei Yutang was of course not going to stay. If she were to stay for a meal, the mother and daughter might want Chu Yinan to stay and take a nap with them before leaving.

If you sleep too long during your afternoon nap, it might be dinnertime by then.

"No, my family is waiting for us to come back for dinner. The food is all ready, and if we don't come back now, there will be leftovers. Let's arrange to come to Auntie's house for dinner another day!"

"That's fine."

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

Now that Heinrich has returned home, and with two maids at home to cook, they naturally won't be going out for lunch; they'll head straight home.

Chu Yinan returned home and used his go-to excuse—"I'm going to ejaculate."

As soon as I entered the house, I crawled into the bathroom and squatted on the toilet.

However, this is just an excuse for seeking private space.

"Photobook, download!"

The high-definition photobook download source I got from Valentina instantly reached full speed.

Hyun Eun's early collection of writings was a promotional item accompanying the movie "The Subtle Tale of Oranges," piggybacking on the gimmick of a limited physical edition.

Only about 100 copies were issued back then, and the electronic version was never released. There were no netizens who even scanned and shared the images. The only places you could find a few scattered discussions and blurry photo shares in some forgotten corner of online forums.

Chu Yinan had reason to suspect that the poster had taken the photos with a landline phone, given the image quality of those pictures.

However, the scarcity of such a photo album generated considerable buzz back then, with some even questioning its very existence.

That period coincided with the peak of the idol economy, and the artificial island was no exception.

Various entertainment agencies have come up with all sorts of tricks to boost the popularity of their artists. HyunEun's photobook was one such marketing tactic back then.

"As a result, the AI ​​sister casually pulled out a high-definition electronic version and gave it to me. There is reason to suspect that the people who did the basic development for AI back then did it just to make it easier to find resources!"

Chu Yinan carefully browsed through the photo album. It was suitable for all ages, with no sensitive areas or suggestive content. The most revealing thing was the bikini.

But one of them was one that Chu Yinan had seen in the Turing Tower Data Library when he was a child. He never expected it to have come from here.

“I remember this peach (referring to the fruit in the photo), it was so tender and beautiful. I was wondering why it looked so familiar when I helped Aunt Hyun-eun clean her room at Xuan-ya’s house last time.”

What a coincidence! So perfectly round and smooth!
