Since the other party didn't say they wouldn't leave until Mo Yi arrived, it means they won't wait any longer.

That should be it, perhaps, or maybe.

P. S.: We are all little monsters, and one day we will be killed by the righteous Ultraman.

Chapter 71: The cicadas are chirping, Mei is furious.

It's one o'clock at noon, the hottest time of day, especially now that the cicadas are chirping and it's the height of summer when people are sweltering.

Raiden Mei habitually arrived at the Xuehai Bridge in the Central Lake ten minutes early, found a bench under the shade of a large tree, and waited for Mo Yi's arrival.

The reason she arrived ten minutes early was not because she was looking forward to it or cared about it, but because of her good upbringing and habits. She believed that making people wait was very impolite, so when she made an appointment with someone, she would usually wait for them at the agreed time about ten minutes in advance.

Of course, in the past, when she arrived at the agreed-upon location in advance, others were usually already waiting for her there, so it was rare for her to wait for others.

When the other students saw the legendary Queen Mei sitting on her special stone chair, they knew that another boy had been rejected by Raiden Mei that day.

This is the battleground where Raiden Mei famously hands out "friend zone" cards; everyone knows it well.

Watching the excitement isn't just a hobby of the Shenzhou person; foreigners do too. It should be said that it's an instinct engraved in the genes of all humankind. Humans without the gene of curiosity would have died countless years ago because they were too timid to gather food.

Therefore, around Raiden Mei, in the grass, by the lake, on the bridge, and even on the teaching building where the Xuehai Bridge can be observed, all sorts of people had already set up their small stools and were ready to watch the show.

Let's see which campus heartthrob will be moved away from the bridge today!

As the time drew closer, the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

As everyone knows, the best shows usually start at 1 p. m., but they usually start 10 minutes earlier. If the show doesn't start until 1 p. m., then you can only eat peaches.

But now?

Everyone looked at the large clock on the teaching building in the distance. If they weren't mistaken, it should be 1:05 noon.

This is incredible!

Someone actually dared to be late for their appointment with the Queen Mei?!

This is big news!

Sitting on the stone bench, Raiden Mei could naturally see the clock on the school building. She was furious, after all, she was a well-educated young lady, not the loud and boisterous Kiana, but she was still a little unhappy.

She thought the other person was the kind who would arrive on time, but she never expected that the other person would be the kind of person she despised most for being late!

So, Raiden Mei had already prepared a draft in her mind to give Mo Yi a "good guy" card and then advise him to study hard and become a person who contributes to society. She tore it up and threw it in the trash. Taking advantage of Mo Yi's lateness, Raiden Mei quickly wrote a new draft in her mind with a stern tone, advising Mo Yi to be a good person.

After writing it down in his mind, he realized that Mo Yi hadn't arrived yet, so he revised it again, adding some rhetorical devices and allusions.

After the revised draft was finalized, Raiden Mei looked up at the clock on the teaching building and realized it was already 1:30 noon, but the other party still hadn't arrived.

If Raiden Mei leaves now, she won't be willing to give up. Wouldn't it be a waste for her masterpiece that she worked so hard to write?

After hesitating for a while, Raiden Mei waited until 2 PM, when it was time for class again, and she had no choice but to leave.

When has Raiden Mei ever been treated like this? (Image file name)

Pretending that she was just there to contemplate life, Raiden Mei maintained a calm smile, stood up, and went back to the classroom.

As for what she was really thinking, only she knows.

If she doesn't say anything, who would know that she was stood up, or that she came here to cool off and daydream?

Once the other insider is dealt with, no one will know the truth!

However, at this moment, Mo Yi sat in the classroom, dozed off for more than ten minutes, and even daydreamed about taking a red-haired girl with a somewhat blurry face to Disneyland.

After school that day, still angry, Raiden Mei didn't participate in club activities. Instead, she went straight to the school gate and began scanning her surroundings with sharp eyes.

I, Raiden Mei Chen Gong, will see who I have chosen today to be turned into Great Hero!

Meanwhile, Mo Yi, who was always Home Club, was blocked by Raiden Mei, who was trying her luck in the wilderness to see if she could catch someone.

Standing at a relatively high vantage point, Raiden Mei immediately spotted Mo Yi walking out of the school gate, looking relaxed and looking down at his phone.

Senba Academy is the most famous high school in Changkong City. The vast majority of students are quite active, spending their time after school either participating in club activities or studying in the library, with only a small number Home Club.

Raiden Mei noticed that the other person was always on their phone and late for appointments, so she boldly guessed that such a terrible person must be a poor student who had no interest in studying and was addicted to the internet and games.

That's why she waited at the school gate as soon as school was over, and she actually guessed right.

Raiden Mei, utilizes her rapid movement ability, which she gained from martial arts training since childhood.

In fact, Raiden Mei had already passed the verification of the Cultivator Association two years ago and become an officially recognized superhuman. Two years later, she was already C-rank Cultivator. In her opinion, she could stun a hundred guys like Mo Yi who were always looking down at their phones.

Although Mo Yi was looking at his phone, as a future King of Heroes, he would never do something as embarrassing as falling down while walking because he was looking at his phone.

He quickly noticed something blocking his way and braked immediately to avoid a collision.

"Who are you, classmate?"

Looking at Raiden Mei, who was blocking her way, silent but with a cold expression, Mo Yi naturally remembered her. After all, it happened today, and it would take two or three days to forget her.

Recognizing the other person is one thing, but admitting it is another; it seems like the other person is there to cause trouble.

Considering what happened today, there's only one reason why the other party would come looking for him: they really went to Xuehai Bridge and then didn't see Mo Yi.

"Is something wrong? I need to go home urgently."

Although Raiden Mei was angry, she tried her best to keep her tone calm, thinking that someone might recognize her here, and asked, "We agreed to meet at 1 p. m. at the Central Lake Xuehai Bridge?"

Mo Yi: "..."

That's what you said. Did I agree to it? Girl, this is practically forcing you to buy something!

That makes sense, but when Mo Yi saw what looked like a sword sheath on the other person's back, he felt that he shouldn't take it too seriously. After all, she was a girl, so it wouldn't hurt to be a little polite. He could just treat it as a rehearsal for practicing his high-level skills of coaxing his wife in the future. After all, no one would be stupid enough to reason with an angry wife, right?

"Oh, it's you, classmate. I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you earlier."

"So what if I didn't agree? I forgot? That kind of answer won't do," Mo Yi said calmly with an apologetic smile. "I had an urgent matter at noon that I had to go to, and I didn't have your contact information. I was thinking of going there to find you—"

"Now I can finally apologize to you."

Raiden Mei: "..."
