I won't be a loser.

Mebius: "#@%*&!!! (Excited)"

And the people in their own world were all celebrating!

They looked at the world next door that was on the brink of destruction, and then looked at their own human civilization that was still thriving.

And the Gene Ascension Plan, the Mind Awakening Plan, and the Cradle Plan that emerged to ensure the continuation of humanity...

"Thanks to Lu Ye's existence, our world can still be so beautiful!"

Chiba New Story: 473. Ten years later, my child asked me, "Who is the wise man?"

"The future really makes me feel bleak. I thought entering university would mark the beginning of a new phase in my life, but it's become even more difficult."

Before Takasu Ryuji entered university, Takasu Yasuko had always strictly forbidden him from working, simply to make him focus on his studies and live a more fulfilling life. However, Takasu Yasuko probably didn't realize that in this day and age, a university degree is no longer a rare thing, and the salary and benefits of working in society may even be worse than...

"Come to think of it, wasn't there that... uh, suicide case a while ago? A man working for a large company committed suicide at home due to the oppression of corporate culture."

"...Is this true? I feel like I saw it on the news."

Facing what the wise man was talking about, Takasu Ryuji couldn't help but blink and was silent for a while. He felt that it seemed a little familiar, as if he had seen related news recently.

"So, do you want to work in my firm?"

"That's the purpose... um... I'll think about it, seriously."

"The firm is currently very short of staff. Someone as serious as you is a rare talent in the firm. And you have a fierce look in your eyes. If we encounter any problems, you can help solve them!"

"..."

Ryuji Takasu, who picked up the juice, didn't know how to answer. He sighed, reached out and gently touched the hair on his forehead, and started thinking.

"Then, I'll visit your office after a while. If the job is suitable, I'll..."

"That would certainly suit. Come on, have another drink."

Seeing that Takasu Ryuji was wavering, the wise man sitting opposite him couldn't help but smile and raised his wine glass. The two of them clinked their glasses and drank one glass after another. When Takasu Ryuji came to his senses, the wise man opposite him was lying on the table with a red face and seemed to be asleep, which made Takasu Ryuji feel embarrassed.

"A wise man?"

"Wake up, sage?"

When he called out Kento's name and found that he had no reaction at all, Takasu Ryuji had reason to believe that he was being bullied in the workplace even though he hadn't even started working there yet.

How to do?

[1. Sent her back to his previous apartment, as if her sister was in his apartment, and left her in the care of his sister.]

【2. Bring the child back to your home and take care of him/her temporarily.】

An option that looked like a text-based love adventure game appeared in front of Takasu Ryuji, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

At present, this place is closer to where he lives, and it only takes a little time to get there. It saves time and energy, and there is no need to walk such a long distance. For a normal person like him, it would be very tiring to help Xianren go to the apartment where he used to live.

It was already dark outside. If two people were walking on the street, even if something happened, it would still be a cause for concern.

"Hello, is this Mr. Takasu? I am the sage's wife, Feng Xiaochun, and I am here to welcome him home."

Just when Takasu Ryuji was feeling troubled, a soft voice sounded in his ears. He turned around and looked behind him, and saw a petite figure, even smaller than his girlfriend... huh?

Almost in an instant, Takasu Ryuji confirmed that his girlfriend was shorter than the girl in front of him who claimed to be the wife of a wise man!

Won!

With an inexplicable competitive spirit, Takasu Ryuji quickly came to his senses, as if he realized something. He looked at the petite girl in front of him with soft, slightly curly white hair, wondering if he had heard something wrong.

"Wait, um...you said you were Xianren's...wife?"

"Exactly."

Slowly walking to the side of Xianren who was lying on the table, Feng Xiaochun took out Xianren's mobile phone, and easily opened the phone without any password, entered the contact page, and then looked at Takasu Ryuji, clicked on the note "wife", and dialed the number.

"It's just an affair for the third year, so please forgive me."

"Even if you kneel down and apologize, I won't forgive you."

The bell rang, and instantly attracted the attention of all the men in the izakaya. They all looked towards the place where the bell sounded. Even Takasu Ryuji was staring at the wise man lying on the table with a subtle expression.

"Does this prove it?"

"Ah... yes, I understand, but... the wise man is drunk now, is that okay?"

"It's okay, the car is right outside. Can you help me get it to the car?"

"Uh, sure."

Originally, Takasu Ryuji was a little concerned about the matter of having a car, but when he thought about the Kento in front of him, who was already the president, it was a very normal thing. He walked to Kento's side, helped the drunk Kento up, and came to the outside of the izakaya, where he saw the black car parked on the side of the road.

Takasu Ryuji, who has always lived in poverty, has never known much about cars, but he roughly knows some famous and expensive brands.

"This... is very expensive."

The subconscious murmur made Feng Xiaochun look at Gaoxu Longer, but he did not explain. He gently opened the car door. Gaoxu Longer helped Xianren and sent him to the car. Feng Xiaochun then expressed his gratitude to Gaoxu Longer.

"This is a discount card for the beauty salon. Consider it my thanks."

"It's just a small thing, no need to thank me. Xianren and I are friends, please don't take it to heart."

He waved his hand to refuse, but Feng Xiaochun said that since Gaoxu Ryuuer didn't need it, he could give it to a female friend. Besides, these were her extra coupons, so Gaoxu Ryuuer accepted Feng Xiaochun's thanks after repeated refusals. He watched the other party sit next to Xianren and the car slowly disappeared from his sight, which made Gaoxu Ryuuer feel lost.

He looked down at the coupon in his hand, was silent for a moment, smiled helplessly, put it in his pocket, and walked towards his home.

Before leaving the izakaya, Feng Xiaochun had already paid the bill when he came over, so Takasu Ryuer didn't need to worry about the cost.

"I feel... a little... lonely."

Looking up at the bright moon overhead, Takasu Ryuji rubbed his forehead and walked towards his home in the cool breeze...

In the car, Feng Xiaochun sat beside Xianren, quietly looking at his sleeping face, stretched out his hand, and gently poked Xianren's cheek.

"Can't you just pretend I'm asleep?"

Like a drunken sage, he opened his eyes and looked at Feng Xiaochun beside him.

"I only did this when you, the wise man, fell asleep."

"Really? But you gave me the feeling that you were deliberately telling me that you knew I wasn't drunk... Never mind, it doesn't really matter whether I'm drunk or not. I was just having a drink with a friend, so why did you come over?"

"I was just a little worried about you, Xianren. If you hadn't come over just now, where would you have gone to rest?"

"Who knows."

The two of them sat quietly in the car until they returned to the apartment. Accompanied by Feng Xiaochun, they entered the elevator, opened the door, sat down in the lighted living room, and rubbed their foreheads with their hands.

Although he was not drunk, the wise man's current condition was not much better.

"I have to get up early tomorrow to go to Chiba for class... Ah, there is such a thing. Maybe next year I can relax a little."

"Can't you discuss this with the school and make it easier for them?"

Feng Xiaochun poured tea, took out some sobering medicine, and placed them on the coffee table in front of Xianren, while Xianren stared at the tea on the table in front of him with a tired look.

"No need, we'll be there soon anyway, just hold on for a while."

"Ah."

Feng Xiaochun would never stop a decision made by a wise man.

At night, with Feng Xiaochun's help, they washed up in the bathroom and then returned to their room in their pajamas to rest...

"Um, Miyamizu-kun, are you free tonight?"

Suddenly, he received a call from Yoshida Saki. The busy Xianren vaguely recalled what he had promised the girl. It seemed that now was the time to fulfill it, but he had been busy before and completely forgot about it.

It was the girl who took the initiative to call him, which made Xianren recall this incident that happened long ago in his busy schedule.

"Tonight... well, nothing important, I have time."

"As a thank you to Miyamizu-kun, I have something I'd like to discuss with you privately. Is this okay tonight...at home?"

"Ok?"

"……May I?"

Although he didn't know why he was in the home of that group of people, after thinking carefully about Yoshida Saki's invitation, he nodded and agreed.

"Okay, see you tonight then."

"Ok!"

Then he hung up the phone. Xianren, who was sitting in the office, looked down at various reports and then checked with the finance department. His expression seemed a little subtle. He picked up the phone on the table and called the finance department, asking them to come to his office.

As a president, you can be perfunctory about anything, but you must be very careful and meticulous when it comes to financial statements.

“There is nothing wrong with producing flyers, but there is a problem with the expenditure on flyers.”

After flipping through the report on the table and checking the contents, the wise man sitting in the office couldn't help rubbing his forehead, and his mood became a little bad.

I guess it's nothing serious. It's nothing worse than having a corrupt official in your own company, right?

Even though we know that something like this will happen one day, we still can't help but feel disgusted when it actually happens. The conditions offered are already very generous. Even when there is not much work, people are often asked to leave work early. When there is something to do, they are given enough overtime pay. Under such circumstances, he is still subjected to such a "stealing" behavior, which is really unacceptable.

After the finance department arrived, they first used intimidation and oppression by means of "dismissal" and "appeal", and then got some truth from the other party, asking him to verify with the people below to confirm what the situation was. Finally, they imposed the most severe punishment on those who made mistakes in principle.

Only in this way can he ensure his prestige as the president and make his words effective.

When it was time to get off work, Kento left the office and drove his own car back to Gokoku-ji Temple. He saw Yoshida Saki at home, and Futaba Rio, who was sitting in the living room with a pair of slender legs in black stockings, her left foot resting on her right leg, staring at him.

"Mari-san and Machida-san, haven't you come back yet?"

"Well, you two will be working overtime tonight."

Yoshida Saki slowly lowered her head and answered. Xianren glanced at Yoshida Saki, and his eyes fell on Futaba Rio, and he found that the other person's eyes were also fixed on him.

"what happened?"

"No, nothing. I'll go get dinner ready."

Futaba Rio stood up and walked towards the kitchen. Looking at Futaba Rio who seemed to be in a bad mood, he didn't know what was wrong with her. He turned his gaze to Yoshida Saki, wanting to get some answers from her, but Yoshida Saki pursed her lips.

"What happened?"

"I... I talked with Miss Futaba about some things, and Miss Futaba... was unhappy."

"..."

At this time, Xianren didn't know what expression would be better on his face. Theoretically, this matter should have something to do with him, otherwise Futaba's reaction would not be so intense, but Xianren couldn't be sure whether it was related to him.

"Does it have anything to do with me?"

"Ah."

"Ah~ This really makes me... I don't know how to react. So, did Futaba say anything?"

"Nothing."

Yoshida Saki glanced at Xianren cautiously, then looked towards the kitchen. Futaba Rio pretended not to hear anything, quietly took out the ingredients from the refrigerator, and then started to prepare them.

"So, does this matter have anything to do with the agreement between you and me?"

"Ah."

After calming Yoshida Saki down with his hand, the wise man standing in the living room walked towards Futaba Rio.

Do, do, do...

Rio Futaba was cutting potatoes, each stroke very slowly and forcefully. When she saw Xianren coming over, she raised her eyes, but quickly lowered them again, concentrating on the ingredients in her hands.

"Let me help you."

Futaba Rio did not refuse. Xianren stood beside her and quietly processed the ingredients.

I'm preparing a new book recently, but I have too many ideas, and the beginning is the hardest.

Thank you all for your monthly tickets and blades! Thank you all for your recommendation tickets!

Chiba New Story: 474. Come back, my proud faith

It seemed that Mari Kazeoka and Sonoko Machida would not be home until very late. Before they came back, only Kento, Rio Futaba, and Saki Yoshida were sitting in the living room.

After picking up the dishes on the table, the three of them just stared at the piece in front of them, and no one said anything. In such a delicate situation, Xianren, who was eating mouthful after mouthful, raised his head after a while and looked at the other two girls.

"I'll go get some tea."
