She wears a coat and black stockings with just the right degree of transparency, which were the expensive clothes she wore as a young lady in the past. The stockings even show a little flesh color.
Pulling open a corner of the curtain, it symbolized that the light of the morning sun had already broken through the layers of white clouds, and the soft golden veil fluttered slightly in the direction of the pink and blue eyes, shining on the ground that had been washed by a night of drizzle.
The sunlight poured in, causing the girl to squint slightly. The land that had been beaten by chickens and had a smell of dirt unexpectedly gave off a hint of freshness that came from a new life.
I could still feel the slightly moist raindrops falling on my arms, and at this moment, that slight feeling of moisture had already penetrated deeply into my body.
The rain has stopped, but its effects have not yet dissipated. Spring is relatively humid, so even a single drizzle can leave a lasting impact.
Mei Raiden stood by the windowsill. Time gently rested on the edge of the bed. She could clearly hear the sound of the accumulated clear raindrops dripping on the bricks and tiles.
In the woods not far away, there are spring willows that have just poked their heads out. Damp raindrops are dripping from the jade-green leaves, and the cold air is corroding into the body bit by bit, although it cannot penetrate the body of a warrior - the products of the past training are not just handsomeness. The sequelae such as rheumatism still make people feel uncomfortable. The simple act of having to manually wash clothes after getting damp is enough to make the former young lady who has left her job suffer.
Because of its remote location, you can encounter some natural scenery that is not available in big cities. The clear spring flowing through the hillside and the sound of water drops after the rain are intertwined with each other, giving people a sense of quiet beauty.
This is something that cannot be found in bustling metropolises or rapidly developing commercial areas. There are only people, endless people, people who exude endless malice.
The tender willows in Hsinchu are full of vitality. After all, everything in the world is moving forward. The world that has not yet escaped from the cold is gradually enveloped by sunshine and spring.
A pleasant breeze came quietly, passing through the short grass and dispersing into the bushes. The faint rustling sound passed by my ears and merged into the streets with the atmosphere of deep mountains and old forests. The warm spring day awakened the vitality of the white and purple flowers on the lemon trees, making a noise.
"What needs to be prepared is already prepared."
"Notebook, mobile phone, wallet..."
"If I introduce this city to Jiang Cheng, will he think I'm on a date?"
Mei Raiden opened the portable dressing table and rubbed her forehead, which still felt a little dizzy from preparing until midnight last night. Her face was a little pale, her half-closed crimson eyes looked a little sleepy, and there was a circle of black eye shadow at the corners of her eyes, as proof of staying up late.
The handbag, which was once her birthday present, was one of the few things she could bring out of her old house. The girl carefully placed the items she had prepared last night into the compartments of the bag.
As a supplement to her memory, Mei Raiden wrote down in the notebook all the places she could recommend to Jiangcheng, recording the beautiful places in the city in her past impressions to avoid being pointed in the wrong direction.
The mobile phone is an important means of communication with Jiang Cheng. She should at least be thankful that her father did not take everything away from her after he went to prison.
As for the wallet...
Jiang Cheng came in through special recruitment channels.
Unlike normal students, funds should not be abundant.
It is said that Shenzhou will not allow students to hold much funds, and it is said that many people's daily food expenses are strictly limited to a certain amount.
Mei Raiden pinched the wallet in her hand that had the Raiden family crest on it. It was no longer bulging with stuff today, but now it was thin and a little pitiful.
Ever since Raiden Ryoma was sent to prison, all of the Raiden family's property has been liquidated. Even the girl herself can only keep some daily pocket money. If she wants to survive in this city, she can only rely on working.
Because her father was a notorious financial fraudster, it was almost impossible for the girl to get a good job. Her beauty made her even more attractive to others. Even if she was lucky enough to find some normal jobs, the salary she received was very meager, and she even had to cook her own food - considering her status as a young lady who had never cooked before.
Spending money outside is unacceptable. Even if you spend just a little bit, your life, which is already at rock bottom, will inevitably get worse.
Jiang Cheng is a boy.
It's normal to let boys pay the bill.
No one would raise any objection.
Jiang Cheng is a student of an aristocratic academy. No matter what, she is better than a down-and-out young lady like you.
Haven't you ever thought about how miserable your life will be after you lose your mind today and the price you pay for your arrogance and face-saving?
It seemed as if someone was questioning the girl's future in her heart, pointing out the inevitable ending, and pointing out an ending that no one in the world would hate.
Yes.
The girl is already acting as a guide, and even if we ignore her identity as a woman, this responsibility should be repaid by having others bear her own expenses.
Jiang Cheng is a very gentle person. He will not refuse this. Since he dares to talk to someone who everyone hates, and since he dares to intrude on others when they are most vulnerable, he should assume the responsibility of a lifeguard.
Since you are prepared to go into the water to save a drowning person, you should save him/her completely, or at least try your best, instead of finding a better seat where you can watch the struggle of the person going against the current from a clearer and more realistic perspective, or even shamelessly pushing the already weak drowning person into deeper waters.
Jiangcheng is not...
—Are you lying already?
……
No.
can not do this.
You can't defraud Jiangcheng in this way.
It's the only one, the last one.
Mei Raiden still stuffed her wallet into her handbag, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her eyes flickering slightly, but without any hesitation, she resolutely faced the life that would definitely become more difficult in the future.
Since it was me who made this request, today's expenses should be paid by me, and I must not cause trouble or distress to Jiang Cheng.
The money saved during this period should be... enough.
……
Reality: When the thunder breaks the sky: 160. Prelude to a one-day date
what……
Jiang Cheng gently pressed his forehead, massaging it in the same way as Wei Erwei, sorting out the messy and unpretentious calls that were stuffed into his brain. He let the quilt slide off his body, and the light from the morning sun seeped in from the corner of the curtain that was blown open by the wind, and was reflected in his dark eyes through his hair.
Becoming a Herrscher body gives one a certain degree of resistance to Honkai energy and can absorb Honkai energy to strengthen the body. Theoretically, half a month is enough to allow the physical fitness to reach a level that ordinary people cannot reach.
But the dark circles at the corners of my eyes are getting darker day by day, and they are too deep. I can't sleep well every night. It seems that after getting used to the company of others, I can't accept lying alone in a cold bed.
what is the problem?
Why do I feel like someone is always nagging me?
After more than half a month, the plot not only did not fade, but it felt a lot more, from one or two people talking about it to many people.
I still don't understand. It's not that the simulator is not actually simulating based on the data, but is directly simulating with the body.
--How can it be?
It would be pointless to waste a whole day on this kind of thing. Although it is not impossible to do so, and exploring the source of the problem is also useful in many cases, but I have other things to do today.
Jiang Cheng threw back the quilt, got out of bed, put on his socks, and went straight to the bathroom - in the Far East, it is considered very impolite to wear shoes indoors.
Wash your face and brush your teeth as usual, but now you have to pick up the facial cream provided by the school, stretch out a finger to pick up some to slightly cover the dark circles.
Once everything is done, the early morning preparations are considered complete. As for clothes... just stick with the school uniform.
Anyway, when it was made, it looked like a dress style.
It should be that it also has the effect of regular clothing.
I don’t know what time Mei will go out today?
I mentioned the meeting time before, but I always feel that she will come earlier than usual, just like she was always the first to arrive after class.
Jiang Cheng was thinking wildly to dilute his emotions. He had already changed into sneakers for ease of movement until he stepped out of the dormitory door.
The sunshine today is just right, not too cold, nor too hot. The air can still smell the natural freshness from yesterday's continuous drizzle hitting the green leaves. The light flowing between the gaps between the shades of the trees gathers into a mottled net, which looks like countless pillars falling from the sky to the ground.
The grip on the bottom of the sneakers is not very strong, but fortunately the light rain last night did not leave too many water marks on the floor, so it is not very smooth.
The road was not far, but a little narrow. The quaint bluestone road was surrounded by overgrown weeds and even a lot of hanging willow branches.
Perhaps wanting to replicate her experience at the academy, Mei Raiden chose a place very close to a hidden exit that was usually deserted.
Just like the boy’s first encounter with her was in a woodland that almost no one had ever set foot on, and he happened to meet the girl who was disliked by everyone - Raiden Mei. After that, every tour of the school would start from that woodland to ensure that he would not be disturbed by others when introducing the environment.
Being interrupted and stopped by others when you are with others, even if you are not bullied as before, the act of being belittled and hurt by others in front of friends is itself very damaging to your dignity and face.
Thinking about it this way, he really needed to teach those guys a lesson. They would all die in the future, so it didn't matter if they needed a beating now.
Although in fact these problems will be solved if Kiana comes over in two days.
There's no point thinking about all this nonsense now.
Let’s talk about it after today is over.
Jiang Cheng quickened his pace and easily crossed the originally steep path. He tore off the dead branches and opened the entrance that had some vines growing on it because no one had used it for a long time. He used his student ID to open the door.
With a creaking sound, as if a forbidden door was accidentally opened, the original silence of the forest disappeared without a trace, replaced by an overly noisy world filled with the noise of people coming and going and communicating.
The vendors of the small carts were lined up tightly in a row. They would stop at a road on the noisy street and stay there like hermit crabs.
The exquisite sedan drove through the accumulated ditch, and the tires suddenly appeared, splashing ten centimeters of water with the pressure of half the car.
At the end of the sight, touching the edge of the bustling street, in the noisy and prosperous, there is only one area isolated from the world. It is lightly decorated with lilac flowers wrapped in purple cloth. The soft purple-black hair naturally flutters in the wind. From the edge of the long skirt, you can clearly see the girl's delicate calves wrapped in black stockings.
——Raiden Mei.
It was not the same school uniform as before. She changed into a white long skirt which was completely different from herself. The white was decorated with a blue ribbon. The one-shoulder style revealed her swan-like neck and delicate collarbone.
Perhaps because she had changed into clothes that were more suitable for traveling, the edge of the fabric seemed particularly weightless, and the breeze blew open a corner of her skirt, as if she could glimpse some fascinating beauty from the shallow puddle underground.
The weather is still not very dry. The Far East is just like another island country isolated from the mainland. Apart from the earthquakes, there is a lot of water.
The humid air at the end of the road reflected a rainbow-like luster, as if it had some preference, evenly sprinkling the light on the girl.
In a sense, the light of the rainbow also happens to provide a little reflection for the puddles on the ground, and this preference also has a bit of bad taste.
After all, it was water with impurities, and even the lines of the Herrscher's body were not enough to see clearly. Jiang Cheng had no intention of becoming a pervert at all.
His gaze stayed on her for less than a moment before shifting to her slightly lowered head. Her eyes were somewhat deep, as if she was thinking about something.
Thinking of going there today?
never mind.
Jiang Cheng stepped forward without hesitation, until his waving hand was large enough for everyone to see clearly - at this point all he had to do was speak like a goblin.
"Finally I can say good morning to you."
"Mei."
"I'm not late today, am I?"
……
Will you come?
It will definitely happen, right?
Jiang Cheng has never told a lie.
Trembling slightly in her heart, she cautiously fiddled with her thoughts in her young mind, trying her best to sort out all the chaos and anxiety - the scene in reality was that her slender fingers gently stroked her hair, and the long purple hair hanging from her side face kept rubbing against the delicate collarbone that was deliberately left open at the bottom of her one-line dress.
It was the same thought as when I made an agreement with the boy more than half a month ago, and the next day I was alone under the tree, waiting for the boy to arrive. I was worrying about nothing and being self-pitying.
I always fall into the same thing without realizing it, and it has happened countless times. It seems that because of the experience that I have never moved forward since that day, I subconsciously engraved in my body that I will never move forward again.
I always stop and stay where I am when everyone else is moving forward. I know it's not good but I can hardly stand up.
The idea that you won't encounter anything if you don't have expectations has long been outdated, but this mentality is so stubborn and strong.
Until that clear voice was within reach, with a playful tone that seemed to deliberately liven up the atmosphere. Just by turning her head slightly, she could put the boy, who was blurred on the edge, at the very center of her vision. Long before the emotions that had been suppressed were churning, and before the trust and expectations that had been blocked by long-term betrayal at the bottom were about to take advantage of the situation, the response had already come before everything.
The tightly pursed lips opened and closed naturally, and the sound that came out of it was retained in the body more deeply than anything else...
"——You're not late, Jiang Cheng."
“Never.”
what……
Of course it will.
……
"Let's start with that street today."
“Although it’s relatively unpopular and not as lively as the bustling downtown area, it also has some things that would be eliminated in this place, which are memories of the past.”
"The campus has basically prepared advanced activities and entertainment equipment, but even these cannot be retained on campus."
Mei Raiden stretched out her hand and gestured towards the distance, capturing special landmark buildings with the sharp eyesight of a swordsman, comparing them with the map that she had recorded and memorized in advance while staying up all night, and planned out an unpopular route.
Compared to more remote places, it is less likely to run into classmates from the college, and it can also ensure that there will be no sudden disturbances from others during this journey.
There is no need to be restrained in one's steps because of the lady's upbringing. Every step forward, even the movement of the skirt, is intentionally controlled.
The delicate head, no longer needing to lower its head, peeked at the boy in silence. Its purple eyes were raised a little, seemingly looking forward, explaining the unique environment of this street, but its mind was completely not on normal tourism and explanation.
