Kiana, You're Clearly Making Things Difficult for Me, Raiden Mei!
Meanwhile, Mo Yi, sitting in the living room, surveyed the mansion, whose living room alone was comparable in size to his own house, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
I realized that I really did come from a poor family. Compared to Miss Mei, who came from a wealthy family, I was far inferior.
Although Raiden Ryoma was tricked into prison by Cocolia, it might not have been Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell for her. Mo Yi seemed to have seen a similar plot in a related storyline or another work, where Raiden Ryoma Siegfried talked about his daughter finding a partner.
This shows that Raiden Ryoma is capable of escaping. It's too easy for it to give in. It's possible that it's using this opportunity to go from the light to the dark.
From the story's background, we can see that Raiden Ryoma is a character. How could such a capable person not realize that someone wanted to harm him?
Who knows, the day after he was taken away, he might be moved to a safe place, just like Siegfried, secretly protecting his daughter.
As for the claim that Miss Mei will be poor after going bankrupt, that's definitely nonsense.
That rich man doesn't understand the principle of "not putting all your eggs in one basket." Raiden Ryoma will definitely divide his assets into several parts and store them in different ways. Even if something happens in the future, he will definitely leave behind enough property for his daughter Raiden Mei to live a comfortable life for the rest of her life.
If they didn't even understand this principle, Raiden Ryoma would never have been able to develop a small electronics ME Corp, into a multinational conglomerate.
Thinking about this, Mo Yi suddenly realized that Miss Mei was quite in line with his long-held fantasy of a wife—long, straight black hair, a wifely demeanor, a mature and sophisticated figure, virtuous and kind, and a rich and beautiful woman.
It's a pity, this is Kiana's official wife.
After sensing that Raiden Mei should be far away, Mo Yi also began to take action, doing things that Miss Mei couldn't know about, which was...
I'm placing a ward in Miss Mei's house!
Mo Yi switched to the Lord of Flow's ability, summoned several Shadow Clones, and then had them install the Scout Ward that Mo Yi had created at a certain density in Raiden Mei's house.
Of course, these Scout Ward aren't the kind from Honor of Kings where a stick is staring into one eye—that would be too creepy, and it would be hard for anyone not to notice them.
Therefore, Mo Yi transformed it into a button-shaped cube. He simply peeled off the sticker, found a hidden place, such as the bottom of a table, and stuck it on.
Mo Yi did this not to spy on Raiden Mei, but mainly to monitor whether any suspicious persons appeared at Raiden Mei's house. That's right, I'm talking about Danzo Coco, the Koko Tenzang Anti-Entropy.
In addition, if anything happens to Raiden Mei after she returns home, Mo Yi will be able to know immediately and quickly send reinforcements via the Scout Ward.
After receiving a response from his clone confirming the completion of the mission, Mo Yi felt a little more at ease. If Raiden Mei discovered his little actions, it would be difficult to explain.
You can't exactly say, "I installed surveillance cameras in your house to protect you, not to spy on your private life!"
Anyway, someone told Mo Yi this, and even if Mo Yi believed them, he would still think they were a pervert.
"What's this?"
Sitting on the sofa, Mo Yi quickly spotted something familiar in the corner. He picked it up and saw that it was his own book, "Honkai Dragon." No wonder it looked so familiar.
It's easy to explain why Miss Mei happens to be a fan of her own books, but why are there two identical books stacked here, and judging from their appearance, they're the kind that have been read many times?
Could it be that Miss Mei is a true fan of mine?
A true fan is someone who buys three books at once: one for themselves, one for their collection, and the other for spreading their faith!
Upon opening the book, Mo Yi immediately felt as if he had opened a Top Student's textbook. Besides the original text, there were also dense book reviews and various scenario analyses. Mo Yi glanced at one of them, such as the sentence, "After taking a few steps, the other party suddenly raised his head, glanced at the sky, and a strange look flashed in his eyes." If he hadn't looked back at the book, Mo Yi wouldn't have remembered writing such a sentence.
In Miss Mei's book review, Mo Yi found a detailed analysis of several hundred words, explaining that this was an important foreshadowing, a metaphor for the character's melancholy expression, revealing her despair and disgust for the world, and also hinting at the tone for the story's development.
After reading Miss Mei's analysis, Mo Yi suddenly felt that the author was amazing. Such a simple sentence contained so much information, including the plot, the characters' feelings, and even the author's philosophical thoughts on the world and humanity itself.
However, it just so happens that Mo Yi himself was the one who wrote the book, but he didn't think that much about it at the time!
At that time, I was rushing to finish a manuscript, so I didn't have the mind to think so much. I basically reconstructed the story in my mind using my own words, writing wherever my thoughts led me.
No!
Mo Yi was initially pleased to discover that Raiden Mei was a true fan of his, but now he couldn't feel happy anymore. He knew he absolutely couldn't let Miss Mei know that he was the author of "Honkai Dragon," the Vader of Love Lao Xu. Otherwise, she might take out the book and ask Mo Yi if his understanding was correct, or if he hadn't fully grasped the truth behind that 'strange gaze.'
How should Mo Yi explain this to the other party? Should he say, "I didn't think that much when I was writing it, Classmate Raiden?"
Or, here's a pen, you can write it.
After putting down the copy of "Honkai Dragon" that was full of book reviews, Mo Yi picked up another book of the same kind. He opened it and saw that this one had also been read many times, but it didn't have any book reviews.
Looking at these two books, which showed obvious signs of being read but were still well-preserved, Mo Yi couldn't help but sigh, "Miss Mei is indeed a true fan!"
If there were a few hundred more readers like this, how could Mo Yi possibly worry about not being able to support Kiana, not receiving rent from her, and having to endure her complaints?
At that moment, Mo Yi heard footsteps, which were clearly the sounds of Raiden Mei coming out.
Mo Yi quickly put the two books back in their place, and then he saw Miss Mei dragging two huge suitcases.
Sensing Mo Yi's somewhat surprised gaze, Raiden Mei lowered her head shyly and said, "I have too many clothes—"
"Mo Yi, could you help me pull one?"
Mo Yi: "..."
Miss Mei, this isn't just a one-day stay at my house, with just these two suitcases, it's clearly a move!
When Kiana moved in, she only brought one suitcase!
P. S.: I've already read Touhou Reimu and such, and I thought it was pretty good.
Chapter 82: Ji Anya, I think you're just making things difficult for me, Raiden Mei!
"Of course, no problem!"
When Raiden Mei asked for help, Mo Yi readily stepped forward and took her oversized suitcase.
"This is troublesome."
Raiden Mei said somewhat shyly, but in her heart she was thinking, "Why don't you call me 'Miss Mei' anymore?"
Is this an Easter egg that requires close contact to trigger? Like when she held the other person's hand and walked in, it had to be triggered?
"Fine--"
Then the two of them walked back to Mo Yi's rather shabby five-story house without incident.
After walking out, Mo Yi looked back at the huge mansion where Raiden Mei lived, a mansion so large that strangers could get lost. He felt that it was so big, but it was nothing special. At this moment, the biggest feeling Mo Yi had was desolation. There was no one there. What was the point of such a big house?
Besides, fortunately, his parents left Mo Yi a five-story house. If it were as big as Raiden Mei's house, no matter how hard he tried, he probably wouldn't have been able to fill it with joy and laughter.
With continued effort, Mo Yi will one day be able to fill every seat in his five-story building!
Thinking of this, Mo Yi smiled, pulled his suitcase and walked over, only to find that Raiden Mei was also looking back at the mansion.
