The Ocean's Little Tyrant: A Mermaid Baby Conquers the 80s
Chapter 508: Starting School
Chapter 508: Chapter 474: Starting School
Yun Jiao toured the entire company with them and even visited the places where Brother Nine usually spent his time.
The company even had a practice room and an instrument room prepared just for Yun Xiaojiu. It had basically every instrument he knew how to play.
‘Well, he is a shareholder here, after all. Of course he has special privileges.’
An assistant delivered their lunch.
Su Huan handed Yun Xiaojiu a script.
“Little Nine, take a look at this script. It was tailored to your requirements. One of the main characters is an opera performer. You can discuss which opera scenes you want to perform with the director.”
Yun Xiaojiu took it, and Yun Jiao leaned over to take a look as well.
The script was a patriotic story about defending the nation. There were three male leads, and the opera performer was one of them.
The character embodied the three popular tropes: beautiful, strong, and tragic. He was well-written and ultimately died a brutal death for his country.
A role like this was perfect for evoking sympathy and a sense of loss from the audience. Plus, Yun Xiaojiu wouldn’t need a double for the opera parts, which was exactly what he was looking for.
After reading it, Yun Xiaojiu looked satisfied. “When does filming start?”
“In a month. The production team is mostly set. The role of Mu Ling was saved for you.”
Yun Xiaojiu nodded. “Okay.”
Yun Jiao asked, “Brother, can I visit you on set when you’re filming?”
Yun Xiaojiu replied, “Of course. You’re more than welcome.”
Su Huan had work to do, so Yun Xiaojiu spent the day showing Yun Jiao around the company. They watched a movie in the private screening room, complete with popcorn and other snacks, played instruments, and practiced dancing.
At one point, Yun Xiaojiu even played the piano while Yun Jiao danced.
Yun Xiaojiu’s manager happened to come by and was instantly stunned by the beautiful scene.
She then enthusiastically grabbed Yun Jiao’s hand and asked if she wanted to try making it in the entertainment industry.
Yun Jiao replied, “Oh, no thanks. I’m quite busy right now.”
Studying traditional Chinese medicine was genuinely demanding, and she wasn’t just studying that; she was also minoring in marine biology research.
The manager looked disappointed but wasn’t ready to give up.
The sight of the siblings just now—one playing the piano, the other dancing—was simply too beautiful.
So, she asked if Yun Jiao had any interest in filming a music video.
Yun Jiao thought for a moment. “If my brother wants to, and I have the time, I suppose I could do it.”
‘It’s not like I’m trying to break into the industry. There’s no harm in just having some fun.’
The manager nodded repeatedly. “Great, great, great… You absolutely have to come when Chen An films his MV.”
She stared at Yun Jiao, her face full of admiration.
“How can someone be so beautiful? How can you be so beautiful…”
Yun Jiao: “…”
Yun Xiaojiu cleared his throat. “Sister Nan, I’m going to take my sister out for a bit. Remember to pick me up when the film crew is ready to start shooting.”
The manager nodded, watching the two siblings leave with a reluctant expression.
“This family is just unfair to the rest of us. I thought Yun Chen’an’s face was already godly, but I never expected someone even more so.”
“No, I have to start planning an MV right now. It would be an absolute tragedy not to film such a magnificent face.”

“Sister Nan is completely obsessed with good looks.”
Yun Xiaojiu complained to his sister after they had walked out of the company building.
“But she’s very capable. Just because I’m handsome, she’s always saying my ‘talent’ can’t be wasted and works really hard for me. The only thing is, she’s way too uptight. Whenever I’m working, she has people following me for protection, even undercover bodyguards. I’m not in that much danger.”
Just as Yun Jiao was about to laugh, a woman suddenly rushed out from the bushes next to the company building.
“Yun Chen’an!!!”
Her excited shriek was painfully loud.
With her arms wide open, she lunged toward Yun Xiaojiu for a hug.
It happened so fast and so suddenly that no one around them had time to react. It was too late to stop her.
Yun Jiao lifted her leg and kicked.
Before the person could even get close to Yun Xiaojiu, she went flying.
Yun Jiao deadpanned, “Not in danger?”
Yun Xiaojiu rubbed his nose. “She wouldn’t have been able to grab me. You know my reflexes, don’t you?”
This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.
In any era, there are always some unhinged people with crazy, obsessive behavior.
Clearly, Yun Xiaojiu had fans like this.
However, every time, they were either blocked by his bodyguards’ quick thinking or he dodged them himself.
So, learning martial arts did have its benefits. Whether it was crazed fans, anti-fans trying to stir up trouble, or people sent by rivals, he could always get away.
“Have her taken to the police station to be taught a lesson. Let’s go.”
After dealing with the fan, Yun Xiaojiu led his sister away.
In the days leading up to the start of the semester, Yun Jiao spent her time visiting one brother after another.
She even contacted her ‘missing person’ of a third brother.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to meet up with him.
On the first day of school, several of her brothers came to see her off.
Their car didn’t attract much attention at the school gate.
This was Qingbei University, and there were plenty of students from wealthy families.
So, private cars were nothing unusual.
But while the car wasn’t unusual, the people were.
“HOLY CRAP, SO HANDSOME!”
“HOLY CRAP, SO GORGEOUS!”
The Yun family instantly became the center of attention.
Especially when they saw Yun Jiao going to register, many upperclassmen offered to help carry her things to her dorm.
As soon as they left, the people at the school gate erupted in discussion.
Even though Yun Jiao’s hair color was strange, you couldn’t deny that she was stunningly beautiful.
And those brothers! God, if they had several handsome, distinguished brothers like that, they’d die happy.
The dorm room was a quad, and the living conditions at Qingbei were excellent.
Aside from the mandatory first year of living on campus, students could choose to live off-campus starting from their second year.
Yun Jiao was on the younger side among the newly admitted students.
They had arrived fairly early. When they got to the dorm, only one roommate was there.
She was making her bed when she heard the door open. She turned her head, but the greeting she was about to say froze on her lips.
It wasn’t just the number of people; it was the tall, handsome men, each one more striking than the last, standing at the door. She was too flustered to speak.
Xu Mei secretly glanced at Yun Jiao.
Coincidentally, Yun Jiao looked at her at the same time. “Hello.”
Xu Mei quickly replied, “H-hello! I, I’m Xu Mei.”
“I’m Yun Jiao.”
While they were talking, Yun Xiaowu and the others had already brought the luggage inside.
Yun Xiao Ba said, “I’ll go get some water to wipe down the bed and desk.”
Yun Xiaowu asked, “Jiaojiao, do you want to take these clothes out?”
Yun Jiao replied, “Brother, leave it. I’ll do it myself.”
Yun Xiaojiu said, “I’m going to add some money to your meal card.”
Watching her brothers bustling about, Yun Jiao also hurried to take the clothes out of her suitcase and hang them in the closet.
Although Xu Mei was busy with her own things, she couldn’t help but steal glances in their direction from time to time.
‘How could anyone resist looking at such a good-looking family?’
‘Sob… Why don’t I have such handsome, wonderful brothers?’
She did have a brother, but her family favored sons over daughters. Her brother was a good-for-nothing who looked down on her, and she had almost been prevented from attending university this time.
Making the comparison, Xu Mei felt even more disdain for her own brother.
With so many people helping, Yun Jiao’s side was quickly finished with unpacking.
After saying goodbye to Xu Mei, she left the school with her brothers to explore the surrounding area.
