Mei, You're Lying! There's Clearly Nothing in Mo Yi's Belly!

Meanwhile, under Mo Yi's relentless spending on Xiao Huo, the smiles on Xiao Huo's face became more and more frequent. He was no longer afraid that Xiao Huo would grow up to be an unfilial daughter who betrayed her old father. The number of stories he had collected had reached 93, and he was not far from 100.

Of course, the condition for passing the Late Night Diner is to reach 100 progress points, while for Miss Pufferfish, even if the affection level reaches 100, it does not mean that the strategy is completed. The real condition for passing is that Kiana and Miss Pufferfish reconcile and accept their true selves.

This sounds a bit abstract and vague. Well, actually, Mo Yi doesn't quite understand what it means either, and he's just taking it one step at a time.

As the Yue Xia, Mo Yi spent more and more time playing. Later on, he basically stayed at Mo Yi's house and would go to play with the embarrassing academy headmaster in the evening.

In addition, Miss Mei's problem has been basically resolved.

Although he couldn't get the Conquest Gem from the other party, Mo Yi had already healed the parts of the other party's body that had been Honkai Energy. Therefore, last night, Mo Yi found a good opportunity to tell the other party about the Conquest Gem.

"Mo Yi, are you saying that someone has implanted something called the Herrscher Core into my body, and under its influence, I will become the Herrscher rumored to have destroyed human civilization?"

Raiden Mei had long suspected that something bad had happened to her, otherwise Mo Yi wouldn't have said anything until her condition stabilized.

Having already endured much suffering, Raiden Mei, with her resolute heart, was already prepared. Even when Mo Yi told her that she had a terminal illness, she wouldn't be surprised.

They would only feel it was a great pity that they could not see their father again.

But after hearing Mo Yi's news, she was still shocked, frightened, and at a loss.

If it's a terminal illness, she might only feel sorry for her own fate. But to become someone else, and then destroy everything and hurt others, is a far more terrifying outcome than death.

At this moment, Miss Mei looked bewildered, unsure of what to do, feeling only helplessness.

"Classmate Raiden, you don't really need to worry too much—"

Mo Yi had anticipated the other party's reaction, but he still needed to tell them. The longer he delayed, the more troublesome it would be when the problem finally surfaced.

"After my treatment, the Honkai Energy in your body has been brought under control. As long as your emotions don't become too problematic and you don't succumb to the temptation of Honkai, it's unlikely that Herrscherization."

"Borrowing the power of the Herrscher Core briefly at critical moments won't cause any problems, as long as you come to me afterwards for treatment to repair the areas eroded by Honkai Energy."

"Um--"

Raiden Mei naturally believed Mo Yi's words, but there was still a bomb inside her that could explode at any time, so it was impossible for her to accept it so easily.

Seeing that the other party was so down, Mo Yi decided to use his ultimate move, which was to ask Kiana to comfort Raiden Mei. Since Kiana had finally won over Raiden Mei within two weeks, Mo Yi saw that their relationship was getting better and better, and Kiana had become the person who was most attached to Raiden Mei.

Another reason is that Kiana also knows that she has Herrscher Core inside her, making them fellow sufferers. The friendship between fellow sufferers is something that someone as healthy as Mo Yi can't understand.

Although after spending time with Miss Mei, Mo Yi realized that he had been overthinking things. Miss Mei didn't have the Yandere traits he had imagined, nor did she have the strange idea of thinking about how to eliminate pests that approached Kiana when he wasn't looking.

After spending two weeks together, Mo Yi couldn't help but sigh that having Miss Mei in his family was wonderful. Apart from Kiana buying pufferfish, Raiden Mei was in charge of all three meals a day. Although the taste wasn't as good as Mo Yi's, the most important thing was that he didn't have to do anything himself.

He finally returned to the pleasant life he had before meeting Kiana and Yue Xia. No, it should be said that his life was even more pleasant and relaxed than before. Before, he had to take care of his own meals and cleaning, but now Miss Mei took care of those things for him.

With a sensible woman in the family, life is different. Mo Yi finally understood why men, after all their wild ways, still need to find a wife to settle down with.

However, Mo Yi also noticed that Miss Mei acting strangely when she was with him, especially when they were alone. Her tone of voice and her eyes were odd.

Does the other person like me?

Such thoughts have crossed my mind uncontrollably. After all, this Miss Mei fits Mo Yi's self-proclaimed ideal of a mature, black-haired, mature woman. As a man, it's natural that Mo Yi would have such fantasies.

However, Mo Yi, who has lived two generations, is different from those seventeen or eighteen-year-olds. He knows what the three great illusions of life are: phone vibrating, I can turn the tables, and she likes me.

Especially the idea that "she likes me" is practically the biggest of the three great illusions that every teenager experiences.

Does being treated slightly nicely by someone mean they like you?

If someone is this nice to everyone, wouldn't that mean they like everyone?!

Miss Mei is very nice to Kiana, does that mean Miss Mei likes Kiana?

This is utterly absurd... Well, there is actually a possibility, after all, this is Da Wei Ge's film set.

Moreover, Mo Yi and Raiden Mei have only known each other for two weeks, so it's impossible for them to have developed deep feelings for each other.

Young people always believe in love at first sight, while Mo Yi, who is psychologically an adult, is more willing to believe that time reveals true character and that love arises from subtle and long-term interactions.

And what he truly desires is a simple and enduring relationship. Love at first sight is like a cold—it comes and goes quickly, and it's not suitable for an old boy like Mo Yi, whose genes are etched with qualities like "building infrastructure and farming, living a simple life, finding true happiness in simplicity, and never wanting to lose what you have" (that's the person I deeply love and miss every night, how should I express this...).

Miss Mei is acting strangely probably because she grew up under the protection of Raiden Ryoma and hasn't had much contact with the opposite sex, so she's not used to it and that's why she acts this way.

Yes, Mo Yi is that clever; he can easily think of the most likely possibility!

"Cough--"

Mo Yi turned around, preparing to go to Kiana's room to find Raiden Mei, hoping that a senior Herrscher like her could comfort Raiden Mei Miss Mei feelings about having an extra stone inside her body.

"Actually, Kiana also has a Herrscher Core inside her. I'll go find her and talk to her, and share some of my experiences."

But after turning around and taking a few steps, I felt someone hug me from behind.

"Don't move, just like that—"

"Also, could you please not mention Kiana again tonight?"

PS: For Chapter 3, I'm running out of energy for this rant, so I've decided to write it in a more translated style: Lord Green Otto has always relied on possessing other people's bodies to achieve immortality. In this instance, he's possessing the true Kiana, whom he's brainwashed and controlled since childhood. However, after suffering severe injuries, the true Kiana's consciousness awakens. Seeing Mo Yi (Herrscher, having already conquered 14 heroes) lying there, whom her grandfather said was long dead, she breaks down and transforms into the Herrscher of the End, tearing apart the concept of Green Otto attached to her. Faced with the cruel present, the true Kiana decides to end this era and begin an eternal cycle until the two of them reunite. The main characters, led by Kiana K423, are certainly unwilling. They've already sacrificed so much to protect the world's beauty; how could they allow the true Kiana to shatter so many sacrifices? They don't accept the future the true Kiana speaks of. Even if another Mo Yi and they appear in the future, will they still be themselves? All they can do now is protect their last memories. Those who can't agree naturally resolve their issues through battle. However, the true Kiana's combat power far surpassed that of the others. After a fierce battle, Kiana, who obtained thirteen Herrscher Core, became the true Kiana's final opponent.

Chapter 101: Mei, you're lying! Mo Yi's belly is clearly empty!

Uh (⊙o⊙)...

Miss Mei, why did you suddenly hug me? I'm not Shirou Emiya, the Emiya Shirou of Partner of Justice, and you're not the elegant Tohsaka Rin. We're not fighting the Holy Grail War right now, and I don't need to use cheat codes to chop off Golden Pikapika's hand tomorrow night. This plot doesn't make sense!

Even if you don't want Kiana to know about this and worry her, you don't need to get so agitated!

Well, if it were two weeks ago, Mo Yi would definitely have firmly believed in the above idea.

After two weeks of getting to know each other, and with Miss Mei squeezing his back forcefully, Mo Yi marveled at Miss Mei's remarkable qualities as a mature and sophisticated woman, but the illusion he had suppressed deep inside—that she liked him—resurfaced.

"Classmate Raiden— "

Feeling anxious and uncertain, Mo Yi awkwardly called out to the other person and tentatively turned around.

Being hugged from behind always feels weird; men should take the initiative!

"Don't move, don't speak, and don't turn around—"

At this moment Miss Mei finally revealed her true nature as the Queen Mei, exuding a strong aggressive aura.

"Also, you're not allowed to add me as a classmate if you call me Mei like Kiana does!"
