We Can Definitely Do It Today!

"No, no, no, this is a very serious deal." Su revealed a deep expression. "We each get what we need—you protect us, and we'll find you protection. It's an equal exchange, and you can't possibly have no feelings for your teacher at all, can you?"

Is there something wrong with your perception of your teacher?

And protection? You are His Majesty's students, who can find...?

Wait a minute, judging from their current behavior, they might really need protection.

When the facts were considered, Vita had just refuted the argument, was immediately convinced.

If that's the case, this deal seems... to have some issues?

No, no, no, it's not that there are certain opinions, it's that we should just agree to it.

After all, even if it doesn't succeed, there are still two scapegoats. As long as their actions don't cross the line, the ladies around Lord Liu Bai will find fault with these two.

And if it succeeds... wouldn't I be able to use my status as my master's wife to turn the tables and manipulate them?

Vita's smile brightened.

Vita considered herself broad-minded, but there were still some things she couldn't tolerate.

For example, the incident of being harassed by two huskies—well, the male version of myself might be a Border Collie.

It's time to let these two people experience what it means to be wicked.

—Who told me to be the woman who approached Lord Liu Bai with impure motives?

Well... but since he is Lord Liu Bai's student after all, I can't go too far.

In that case, let them go dig up the potatoes that look like three gophers!

"Indeed, I really can't find a reason to refuse this offer."

Vita extended her hand with a smile.

"So..."

"It's a pleasure to work with you."

Chapter 580 It will definitely happen today!

Afternoon.

"Sorry, I'll be leaving early today. I'll have to leave the rest of the calculations to you." Mei glanced at the time; it was 3 PM.

This timing is perfect.

"Okay." Einstein waved. "Have a safe trip."

"Tsk tsk." Edison clicked his tongue as he watched Mei's departing figure. "Is this considered putting personal matters before public ones?"

"Then, Princess, would you like to switch places with her?"

Planck chuckled; the reason Mei left early this time was obvious to them.

It's just a date, isn't it?

Edison thought for a moment and then fell silent.

Well, she wouldn't be much better off, and besides, there's not much work left to do at this point in time.

Moreover, calculations are something that, while you might say "please," are actually quite complex and often impossible to complete once you actually try.

There's nothing you can do about it; if you don't know something, you just don't know it. No matter how much you develop a knack for it, you can't suddenly learn it.

"By the way, little Liesel, have we set our dates?"

Upon hearing this, Planck, Edison, and Schrödinger all looked at Einstein, and even Tesla, who was pretending not to care, turned his head slightly.

"Yes, next week, after Rita," Einstein chuckled.

"Why is it Rita again?" Tesla, somewhat annoyed. "While I admit that the maid is a good woman, it's going to be too much of her every time."

"It's good enough that we have a chance, Dr. Tesla, don't push your luck—by the way Nancy, you..."

Einstein looked at Edison was putting his phone away, with a half-smile.

"It's just setting up a small test for Mei," Edison said, seemingly unconcerned.

"Hmm... Hopefully it's just a 'small' 'trial'."

Einstein's cryptic tone made Edison's eyelids twitch.

"It's three o'clock now... The teacher doesn't have any work that requires overtime recently, and she should be off work at five o'clock. I can send her a message now, and then... these two hours should be enough for me to get ready."

But then again, dressing up...

Mei has absolutely no skills in this area.

"Hmm... I've styled it according to the teacher's preferences. As for makeup, I'll just do some light makeup. Luckily, I've been getting plenty of sleep these past few days, so I can't see my dark circles anymore."

When it comes to makeup and dressing up, Mei is very clear about her limits—especially at such a crucial time like this.

She'd rather do nothing than make a mistake!

If she makes a mistake at this moment, she will be nailed to the pillar of shame!

"I remember the teacher seemed to like black stockings. I asked Gray Serpent for a combat suit with black stockings before. Let me look... I found it."

Mei looked at the unfolded combat suit—or rather, the lining of the combat suit—with a strange expression.

By the way, do you need to wear a bra when wearing this combat suit?

It seems like it's not used much?

Has Natasha always been wearing such shameless clothes?

But... you can't just wear this out on the street, can you? You'll definitely need to wear another layer underneath.

"Hmm? What is this?" Mei found a small ring under her clothes and tugged at it. "It's quite stretchy. Is this a headband? It doesn't seem like it... Oh right, I can change my hairstyle too."

She really knows how to do it. As a woman with long hair, no matter how bad she is at dressing up, she can't possibly not style her hair well.

"Hmm, perfect. As for the hairstyle, I'll tie it up in a single ponytail." Mei tied up her waist-length hair in front of the mirror.

Hmm... everything else is fine?

It feels like I've gone back to my student days.

Sure enough, I can dress younger too.

So... the only remaining problem is this outfit.

... Wear it! Of course I'll wear it! At worst, I'll wear it as my ultimate underwear!

Outside...

Mei thought for a moment, and after confirming that she didn't have a particularly stunning coat, she didn't hesitate and took out another set of office attire from her closet.

She'd rather do nothing than make a mistake!

Since she didn't have any other clothes, she might as well just wear her office uniform, which wasn't bad-looking anyway.

Objectively speaking, it's even a bit fashionable—after all, office attire isn't the same as work uniform.

Plum

The collar needs to be buttoned up so that the black stockings underneath aren't showing.

Although it may seem a bit strange, Vienna isn't some island with its own temperature control system like Schicksal. It should be winter now, so buttoning up the collar won't raise too many suspicions.

The outermost layer... well, it's still a white lab coat.

There's really no other choice.

After taking out all her clothes, Mei didn't rush to change. Instead, she took a thorough shower.

Mei spent an hour making sure that every part of her body smelled faintly sweet from the shower gel before she came out of the bathroom.

Mei came out wrapped in a bath towel, and the first thing she did was check her phone. After seeing Liu Bai's expected affirmative reply, Mei couldn't help but clench her fist and smile like a young girl.

"Don't rush, don't rush... Mei, let's reconcile the plans now. The concert is at 7 p. m. Excluding necessary time for moving and time for error, my teacher and I have about an hour and a half for our date."

Mei didn't rush to change her clothes; she went straight to the computer desk and opened the prepared files.

The date was planned on Friday to catch those people who assume the weekend is just Saturday and Sunday off off guard!

"According to the planned route, my teacher and I will be visiting flower shops, arcades, some small restaurants, and many tourist photo spots... In an hour and a half, we should be able to visit them all, right?"

Mei glanced at it; actually, the most important thing was the schedule after the concert.

The concert lasted about two hours, and she could allocate the remaining time as she pleased, but this also meant that the original purpose was no longer there.

The route ahead features facilities such as Western restaurants, aquariums, and grand hotels.

Whether she can get Liu Bai to the hotel's king-size bed next depends on her skills.

Of course, the room had been booked in advance. It was a presidential suite in the Schicksal Property, where both hygiene and service were guaranteed. Moreover, it was not Prometheus who forged his identity to complete the check-in process.

Unless Otto loses his mind and personally goes through the hotel records, he will never find out.

Except for the last part, which requires skill, there shouldn't be any problems elsewhere.

That's so true to me!

Well, this is her first time making a plan like this, so she can't say for sure whether there will be any problems.

However, it looks perfect, which at least adds to one's mindset.

With a sigh of relief, Mei tossed her towel aside and walked to the mirror to change her clothes.

Fortunately, I don't have much excess fat on my body...

Mei crossed her arms and looked at herself in the mirror, subconsciously comparing herself and Mei to Hokushin Mei.

It's just that her slim figure is somewhat disappointing.

However, if you face your strengths squarely, you will become more complete and mature.

Anyway, it's not like I have excess fat, so it's normal that I'm not as slim as I was when I was younger—after all, everyone is still growing.

Come on, Mei, you can do it today!

After secretly giving herself a pep talk, Mei slowly began to change her clothes, and then used the small ring from under her clothes to tie her hair into a single ponytail.

Call...

After getting myself all tidied up, I looked at myself in the mirror and had the illusion that I had returned to my student days.

He looked energetic and radiant.

Mei had almost forgotten how long it had been since she felt this good.

For tonight only, screw work! Screw the Honkai! Screw civilization!

There's still half an hour until five o'clock.

Mei picked up her small bag, humming a little tune, and left the room.

Teacher, I'm here!

Snap—

Is this really a good idea?

Hokushin Mei held up her hand knife, looking somewhat guilty at the more heavily dressed Mei opposite her.

"You did it, and you're asking me?" Mei's lips twitched. "Luckily, I made it in time... Hmm, but this guy seems to be really looking forward to today's date."

Mei felt a little guilty looking at Mei, Mei exquisite attire was so different from what she remembered.

"Aren't we the same?" Hokushin Mei retorted. "You really have no samurai spirit at all."

"It was clearly you, Beichen, who did it, wasn't it?" Mei retorted, then propped her head up and began to think.

Indeed, since they all look so alike, Mei has already started to empathize with them.

"In that case, we'll have to change our original plan."

Mei took out a pair of glasses, just like Mei's, from her pocket, put them on, patted her face, cleared her throat, and began to speak in Mei's manner and tone—the thick clothes she was wearing even smoothed out any issues with her figure.

And... that tone of voice and expression really do resemble Mei...

If Hokushin Mei hadn't known the whole story, she probably would have mistaken Mei for Mei—and more importantly, her intuition hadn't detected the problem.
