Kiana: Mo Yi, You Sure Know a Lot
Mo Yi, who thought he had given a good reassurance, then went grocery shopping with Miss Mei without worry. For the past two months, he had been living and shopping on his own, and after not walking this road to the supermarket for a while, it felt a little unfamiliar.
"Mo Yi, classmate—"
With her mindset adjusted, Mei became slightly more proactive again. In fact, whenever Kiana and Yue Xia weren't around to get in the way, Mei would evolve from a gentle, caring wife into an aggressive Queen Mei.
The two walked on without speaking. Although Mei enjoyed the feeling of going out to buy groceries together like an old married couple, she still wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to be alone with Mo Yi and talk to him more.
"I remember the last time we went out together was when I asked you to come with me to my house to move some things—"
"Time really flies."
Hearing Miss Mei's sentiments, Mo Yi also remembered this matter. He had only thought about protecting Miss Mei before, and he couldn't watch her follow the original plot and become the Thunder Herrscher to destroy Changkong City.
Unexpectedly, what was thought to be a short-lived Miss Mei has become an indispensable member of our family.
Even though someone told Mo Yi that Koko Tenzang had given up his plans to cause trouble and that Miss Mei was no longer in danger, he still couldn't bear to let her leave and go back to that luxurious mansion.
Having lived alone for ten years, Mo Yi had grown accustomed to the presence of Kiana, Yue Xia, and Mei since Kiana's arrival, or rather, subconsciously regarded them as his new family.
People always yearn for what they lack, and Mo Yi is no exception, though he doesn't show it on the surface.
"Yes--"
After Miss Mei started the topic, Mo Yi also recalled various memories from the past few days. Suddenly, he remembered a funny scene and complained, "Kiana, does she think I don't know that she doesn't want to pay rent because she's the only one paying it?"
"Actually, she had already let it slip."
Yeah, I used to go to Kiana's room every night to treat (or rather, trick) Miss Pufferfish. Kiana, who was fast asleep, was talking in her sleep.
Miss Mei: "..."
Damn it (>皿<), it's Kiana again?!
The person with you right now is me, Raiden Mei!!
Mo Yi thought that telling Miss Mei would make her laugh, but to his surprise, she didn't react at all.
Mo Yi: I never expected that Miss Mei would have such a high threshold for laughter!
Miss Mei slowed her pace, looked at Mo Yi, and said with a serious expression, "Mo Yi, what do you think of Kiana?"
What Mei actually wanted to say was, do you like Kiana?
Kiana—
Mo Yi was surprised that Miss Mei would suddenly ask about his feelings for Kiana. Could it be that Miss Mei really likes Kiana and is now testing his opinion of Kiana?
No way, Miss Mei! How can you, a married woman, be a lesbian? There are plenty of good men in this world, like me.
Of course, Mo Yi was only complaining in his mind. At this moment, he was seriously thinking about how to answer appropriately.
After all, it Miss Mei who asked this question. Hmm, it's all Miss Mei's fault. That hug back then made Mo Yi have some small 'bold thoughts' in his heart, but for various reasons, he never revealed them.
Various reasons: 1. I don't know what Miss Mei is really thinking. After all, she's so nice to everyone. Mo Yi wouldn't think that just because she's nice to him, she's special.
2. Kiana seems to really like Mei, and there really is a yuri tendency in the Honkai Impact 3rd storyline. Kiana is, after all, his 'pet (brother),' and stealing his pet's wife is indeed not very kind. In Hong Kong movies, this would be a serious offense.
3. Miss Mei lives in her own home. If her confession is rejected and she's just being presumptuous, how is Mo Yi supposed to live under the same roof with her? If it were a female classmate at school, it would be fine; he could just avoid her. But living together is obviously not an option—how awkward would that be?
4. The girl Mo Yi had the highest affection for had always been Princess. Although he knew there was a significant gap between them, and she had subtly warned him beforehand, how could a man not have some bold dreams? What if they came true? Besides, he wasn't bad himself; he was a man with a cheat code, and according to the normal script, one day he would be able to meet all the conditions that satisfied her. Of course, Miss Mei was also very good in Mo Yi's eyes, definitely the best choice for girlfriend and wife. But now, once he made a choice, there was no turning back. It wasn't strange to have feelings for several girls at the same time, and even want them to be his girlfriends, but once he made a choice, he had to be devoted to them wholeheartedly—that was a matter of personal principles.
Getting back to the main point, when faced with Mei's question, Mo Yi truthfully gave his opinion. "Kiana is always causing trouble, doing all sorts of things that are both funny and frustrating, but it's fun being with her..."
After listing a bunch of pros and cons, Mo Yi concluded:
"Yes, she's a good girl."
Miss Mei: "..."
After hearing Mo Yi's evaluation, Miss Mei as if a stone was tied to her heart, sinking into Tokyo Bay and into a bottomless abyss, unable to breathe!
Although Mo Yi kept pointing out Kiana's flaws, there was a smile on her lips that she herself couldn't even recognize as she said these things.
It turns out that Kiana had such a wonderful image in the other person's mind.
Seeing Miss Mei's face turn pale, Mo Yi panicked. Was he about to be hit by a Magnetic Storm Shovel in the face?!
He quickly continued:
"Of course, Mei, you are too..."
"Yes, a very outstanding girl."
"Intellectual, understanding, you're the one who takes care of everyone at home..." (In short, a whole host of compliments that Mo Yi could imagine)
To avoid the other party misunderstanding that he had bad intentions towards Kiana, Mo Yi chose to praise everyone, so that the other party would not misunderstand.
"Being able to meet such an outstanding girl like Mei, looking back now, is probably the luckiest thing that has happened to me in the past few years."
Thanks to Miss Mei, I was able to escape the tragic fate of becoming a stay-at-home husband before I was even married.
Miss Mei was overjoyed to be free of her dark side, realizing how highly she was regarded by the other person.
However, Mo Yi seemed to be revealing some dangerous thoughts. In his words, it seemed that Kiana liked him very much, but that wouldn't do!
P. S.: In the stories I described, I liked both the cute yet clumsy and cunning Kiana and the innocent and straightforward Yue Xia, but as expected! I still like Miss Mei the most! Every time I describe a scene, Miss Mei's smile and frown pop into my head. (In the special Honkai Impact 3rd characters, the Princess is like a celestial being Immortal from Beyond the Heavens, lol.)
Episode 197, Princess Arc 12: That's right! The Princess's operation this time is called 'Operation Princess Kaguya Wants Me to Confess'. Just as she was about to deliver the final blow— 'Mo Yi, do you like me? If you confess to me, I might accept!'—her pet Reisen, whose thoughts she'd already discovered, opened the door and jumped in. Seeing the Princess's darkened face, she said, "..." Reisen, quite nervous, saw her Princess cornering Mo Yi on the tatami mat, his face almost touching hers. The words she wanted to say immediately died in her throat. In her mind, she screamed: Princess, this won't do! I'm going to tell Master! Of course, she only dared to think this in her heart. The Princess glared fiercely at Reisen, her voice low and menacing as she asked, "What happened? What's with the rush, Reisen?! It seems Eirin hasn't trained you enough—"
Chapter 314: Ji Anya: Mo Yi, you know so much!
Kiana, who finished work early again today, is riding her electric scooter home.
Kiana finished her work so early not only because she learned Miss Pufferfish's ability to travel through Imaginary Space, but also because after the Amusement Park Incident, there was a large-scale population migration in Changkong City, especially in the eastern suburbs where Mo Yi's family lived. With fewer people, there were naturally fewer people ordering takeout. Of course, the takeout job is available at all times, Kiana would give up some of her work in order to get home earlier.
As for giving up her delivery job, such an easy job, Kiana had never thought of it. She used to think that after her Cultivator level increased, she could take on some more challenging jobs, but now she didn't have that idea at all.
Kiana just wants to do an ordinary but simple job, so she can go home on time every day and eat and chat with everyone.
As Kiana rode her electric scooter, the voice of the Miss Pufferfish suddenly popped into her head: "Ji Anya— "
"What?"
