Chapter 959 Going for New Year Visiting

When Jin looked at a laughing Yun, he involuntarily thought of the clone comment that the System had just made. "Isn't Yun considered a clone in some way?" Jin questioned via his thoughts to the System.

"System needed someone to act as User's mentor to teach you the ways of the System at the start. Subject Yun was the ideal candidate since she was your mother. She does not really fit the definition of a clone. System would classify her as a resurrection that went wrong."

"This world had deemed it impossible to reconstruct anything with her Dantian Core. Before being passed on to User, System has been doing its utmost to recover as much from the Dantian Core as possible in the 19 over years it has been dormant. If successful, System would have gained a countermeasure against the Banned Emperor faction. Ultimately the experiment has been deemed a partial success since there were some defects."

"Subject Yun did not remember clearly about her past and had no recollection of having any direct relation with current User. Since the time Subject Yun had spent with the User was relatively short, this was to be expected with a corrupted core. System has fed her the information from its database to make up for it. Naturally, those can't really be called her own 'memories'."

"Surprisingly, User and past Sub System User Yuan have managed to trigger memories she did not seem to possess when resurrected. While she remains stoic in her attitude and emotions, the revelation of the System's history to User has awakened some specific string of memories in her. It has caused her to be mad at that point of time although she seems to have regretted betraying your trust leading to the kind of distance between the two of you."

"What do you mean?"

"The System developed the hypothesis that Subject Yun had been coping with her feelings and memories since she must have felt that they were not hers. There was a dissonance between the soul and the body. Suffice to say, the System had modified her to make up for the corruption of the Dantian Core, which made her compatible with various souls so she could turn into the ultimate bodyguard for User in case he was ever betrayed by anyone in the real world. A sort of last measure. She was designed such a way that no matter how you hated her, she would stand by you no matter what."

"System had hoped that she would imprint on the User and that some motherly instinct would emerge through prolonged contact. Unfortunately, that method seems to have backfired dramatically. System wished to take this opportunity to apologise once again, but in the System's defence, it was a viable plan that had beneficial remunerations for such a risk."

"Well, from what I can see, your idea worked only the other way around. She seems happier ever since she managed to reconcile with Grandma Yuan a little." Jin commented, but the moment Yun saw Jin, her grinning face turned astutely serious.

"Jin, Yang Ling has come to visit not too long ago, demanding that you meet her father for lunch. You can refuse, but she told us the Tiger Triad would likely come around to fetch your body to see to your arrival right in front of their Clan Head. So best get changing." Yun spoke in a clear, definitive manner.

"She has extended her invitation to us, though. My peggies should be able to deal with the kitchen on their own, so it's okay for me to go visiting people!" Lynn raised her hand as if to volunteer to go and ensure that Jin did not make any fuss. "If you don't mind that is. By the way, thanks for clearing the area. I was actually going to do that after we sent Yang Ling off."

"What about your own dad? I would rather visit him than meet up with Tiger Lord Yuan Ba. They gave me nothing but trouble recently." Jin grumbled as he checked the fridge in search of anything to drink for the three of them.

"Well...if you could come to visit him, that would be for the best" Lynn's ears turned red momentarily as she was delighted that Jin was the one to mention it. She had planned to invite him, but with his drunken condition, she was unsure if he would recover in time. "I would really appreciate if you could do that. My dad would surely love it too." Lynn said with a wide smile as she involuntarily bowed towards Jin.

"Awesome! I have been wanting to talk to your dad for some time and catch up with him a little. Then let's go and visit him first. Yang Ling should have reported that I'm still 'ill', so can't blame me for being late." Jin grinned as he pulled out a drink and asked if any of them wanted some.

"I will be heading back to work." Yun declared, yet Jin suddenly grabbed Yun's hand.

"Huh?" She did not know how to respond as that was a first for Jin to stop her from the work he himself had no time to attend to anymore. (Granted,
