Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 148 Even if it’s all just a dream, I still don’t want to wake up.

Although Jiang Ming's feat of killing six Judgment-level Honkai beasts in seconds by himself was indeed amazing.

Fortunately, most of the students in St. Freya Academy don't know much about it. Anyway, they can say that they will never encounter a Honkai beast as powerful as Chi You in their entire lives.

In addition, Jiang Ming asked Theresa and Ji Zi for help, saying that he did not want this matter to spread.

So, at Ji Zi's suggestion, who was not sure whether it was a joke or something, Jiang Ming had no choice but to hold a handshake meeting to remind them not to spread the news of Jiang Ming's fighting strength.

Fortunately, the students of St. Freya Academy are all considerate and good girls who always care about others. In addition, this is the first handshake event held by Jiang Ming. With this sweet taste and Jiang Ming's status and influence, they will naturally hide this matter until the grave.

Although the girls in the middle all expressed their admiration for Jiang Ming, they were reluctant to let go even after shaking hands with him.

However, Ji Zi and Theresa were watching from the side. No matter what, they did not dare to be too presumptuous. They just held Jiang Ming's hands and expressed their feelings before leaving.

And one night after that...

After dinner, everyone basically went to their own rooms. Bronya, Hiyamaru and Rin probably made an appointment to play games together. Kiana was threatened by Theresa to review, Sakura stayed in her own room, and Himeko seemed to be making papers for the mock exam.

So now the only people left in the living room and kitchen are Jiang Ming and Mei Yi...

Since Jiang Ming still couldn't convince Mei to let him do the dishes, he had no choice but to sit in the living room after Mei kept pushing him.

Looking at Mei who was busy in the kitchen, Jiang Ming couldn't help feeling resentful. It would have been fine at this time, but it seemed that ever since she had knocked him out, she seemed to have become more and more diligent, getting up earlier than before and going to bed later than before. So even with breakfast or lunch, he could only help her.

Do you want to prove something...?

But this is not a good thing, or if possible, he doesn't want or even wants to let Mei stay in the kitchen for a long time, because she will inevitably be contaminated by oil stains and smoke, which will have a bad effect on her skin for a long time.

But it seemed to be due to the Herrscher's physique, plus the girl usually took good care of her skin, so it was not affected at all, and it was still as soft and smooth as a baby's.

And cooking seems to be one of the few interests of girls.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at the tall and beautiful girl in the kitchen. He suddenly wanted to be tough. He walked slowly behind the girl without saying a word.

Night Color's hair reaches her hips, and her graceful willow-like waist is tied with a purple cat apron, which adds a touch of cuteness to her charming figure. Her slender and perfect thighs are wrapped in black stockings that make people want to rub them, and have not yet faded.

I don’t know if it was a special opportunity for Jiang Ming or something, but Mei just washed and wiped the last dish and put it back in its place, wanting to leave the kitchen.

At this moment, the boy hugged the girl from behind. The girl's faint fragrance immediately invaded his nose. The girl's waist was gently embraced. Even through two layers of thin clothes, his fingers could still clearly feel the touch of her soft waist.

At the moment of hugging, the girl's body seemed to be hit by a weak electric current, and she felt so soft that she even lost strength for a moment. The lover she had been thinking about was right behind her, and the girl could only lean weakly on his chest.

The two didn't say much, or rather, they didn't know what to say. After all, Jiang Ming was just in a momentary mood, and Mei hoped from the bottom of her heart that they could continue.

So, Jiang Ming subconsciously lowered his head and buried his head in the girl's snow-white neck that was as smooth as jade, gently put his lips and nose tip close to it and took a deep breath.

“Hmm…!”

"No... stop making trouble..."

The girl couldn't help but remind Jiang Ming in a hoarse voice.

Perhaps he considered that it was still too early and any other excessive actions might affect other people in the dormitory.

The girl's remaining sanity told her that now was not the time. She grasped the mischievous hand on her waist with her slender fingers like jade onions, trying hard to pry it apart. However, the confusion and yearning revealed in her light purple eyes... were completely the opposite of what she wanted.

"I... Mei hasn't finished cleaning yet... Please wait a moment..."

"It's a lie..."

Jiang Ming directly interrupted the girl's begging for mercy. He gently placed his left hand on the girl's Adam's apple to let her get closer to him, and he then stroked the girl's neck, carefully savoring her fragrance.

"You've already packed everything, Mei, why did you lie? Are you just trying to deceive me...? Why are you doing this? Mei, are you being naughty...? Do you hate me...?"

The boy's tone was filled with resentment, doubt and uneasiness, but there was no blame, boredom or resistance...

"Ugh...! No...No..."

The girl felt Jiang Ming's hot breath, her breathing and heartbeat gradually quickened, and an indescribable strange emotion arose in her heart.

If last time I wanted to sit on it, this time I wanted to lie underneath it.

“Uh-huh…!”

I don’t know what the boy did, but the girl’s face turned even redder. She seemed to be stimulated by something and couldn’t help but let out a cute moan. Her beautiful purple eyes gradually became moist.

"What a lovely voice, can you do it again?"

The boy asked with a smile, but the girl shook her head slowly.

"No...it won't work, the sound...will be...heard...hmm!"

Jiang Ming seemed to have heard something funny and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hmm? Since you can hear it, what did Mei-chan do to me last time?"

"Ming...remember...?...Ah~!"

"Of course not."

Without paying attention to Mei's cute voice, Jiang Ming kissed the girl's earlobe. The hot breath and gentle words began to invade Mei's brain, making her head a little dizzy.

"But as long as you reason well, there will be no problem. Ah... Let's not talk about this for now. It's just that Mei didn't seem to clean my body properly after she was done. It's uncomfortable to feel sticky after waking up."

"How do you want to repay this matter?"

“I…Ahhh!!”

Jiang Ming gently kneaded Meiyi's tender and soft belly and slender waist, and kept reminding her, but he looked like he didn't want Meiyi to answer.

Just when Meiyi was about to collapse in Jiang Ming's arms...

Jiang Ming suddenly spoke again.

"Mei... you seem to be very busy these days..."

“Eh…?”

"Not only does he always rush to do things with everyone else, he does it without any discussion."

"I get up earlier than usual and go to bed later than usual..."

"That...that is..."

Just when Mei was trying to refute with the remaining rationality in her mind, Jiang Ming simply asked her to turn around and hold herself tightly against him.

He leaned close to Mei's ear, feeling the softness of the girl's body and whispered softly.

"Don't say that waking up early is a habit, and going to bed late is a sign of serious review."

The unique scent of the boy continued to stimulate Mei, making her already confused head even more groggy, but the fresh scent of lemon kept her subtly awake.

"No matter what, I still know Mei very well. No matter what happened, Mei must be an obedient child. It is common sense to go to bed early and get up early. It's just..."

"Do you know how worried I am about you?"

"I'm so worried about Mei's health..."

"I'm really worried that Mei might not be able to handle it..."

"I'm so worried that Mei, such a stranger, will leave me one day..."

Jiang Ming's tone was filled with strong desire and coquettishness. He knew that Mei would only respond to soft words and not to hard ones. This was how Kiana had asked Mei for help time and time again, and he also hoped to convince Mei in this way.

But the opposite happened, and Mei suppressed her inner emotions and complained.

"But... doesn't Ming often get up early at 4 a.m. to train in the simulation training room? After two hours of training, he comes back to simply wash his body and make breakfast for everyone."

"There are also tasks from above, tasks from destiny."

"Isn't it tiring to be like this?"

"Ming's health and stuff... I'm worried about him too!"

"..."

It was as if he was trying his best to say it. Jiang Ming could clearly feel the girl's rapidly beating heart. He took a deep breath, then hugged the girl's waist with apology, and no longer made the same small movements as before.

Although he didn't know how Mei knew it, he decided to apologize first.

"Okay, I admit that I was wrong first. I made Mei worry about me. I'm really sorry, but this was not my intention... I just..."

"Mei knows."

Seeing Jiang Ming admit it, Meiyi finally smiled, but she put her index finger against Jiang Ming's lips, choosing not to let him continue. Jiang Ming, who didn't understand but was willing to understand her, chose to remain silent, but it also made him feel relieved.

"Ming and Mei, like everyone else, are also using it, and they both want to help and protect everyone in their own way."

"But such an extreme method, where you only allow yourself to use it but not allow others to use it, is too contradictory and too much."

"I always think I can bear everything, so I won't let anyone suffer even a little bit. I think I am very considerate, but I never notice the pain in everyone's heart."

"That's what Ming thinks, right?"

"..."

"Yeah... always..."

Mei didn't show any extreme reaction after hearing this answer. Instead, she nodded with satisfaction.

"That's right."

Mei gently placed her hand on Jiang Ming's head and stroked it softly, comforting him as if caring for him.

"I know Ming has things he wants to do, and Meiyi shouldn't restrict him too much."

"No matter what Ming wants to do, Meiyi will support him from behind. Meiyi has seen everything Ming has done so far."

"Even if everything I have done so far turns out to be just a dream, Mei will continue to do it with Ming until the end, even if I can't wake up."

"But Mei really hopes that Ming can think about himself and us, and what we really want."

"Okay...?"

"..."

That’s all I have to say. If you continue to throw a tantrum and act unreasonably, it would be too inhumane.

Jiang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, then he looked at the girl in front of him again, the girl he loved from the bottom of his heart, and laughed softly with some self-deprecation.

"Haha, okay, I give up—"

"Well, Mei is so gentle and considerate. It turns out that there is a reason why I fell in love with Mei."

"Falling in love or something... we'll talk about it later!"

"No, I've liked Mei for a long time, even earlier than Mei knew me."

"Eh? So early?!"

"So... when exactly is it?"

Mei's tone was a little excited. After all, in her memory, the first time she met and got to know Jiang Ming was at Qianyu Academy, when Jiang Ming had just come as an exchange student.

But now he says that he fell in love with me before we met. Every couple would find this something magical, right?

Looking at Mei's eyes that were eager for an answer, Jiang Ming released his hand on Mei's waist, turned around and slowly walked back, raising his head slightly and responded as if he was angry.

"Humph! I won't tell Mei! I'm going to keep it buried deep in my heart!"

Mei was stunned at first when she heard this, then she realized that Jiang Ming was joking with her. She couldn't help but pout and walked towards Jiang Ming angrily.

"Well--!!"

"Ming is too much......"

Just when Mei was symbolically hitting Jiang Ming with both hands at the same time, she suddenly stopped. In the end, she only had time to withdraw her hands and put them on Jiang Ming's shoulders.

Because just when Mei was about to hit Jiang Ming, Theresa and Jizi suddenly appeared in front of them, looking back and forth at the two of them with extremely confused and strange eyes.

"Um... the principal, Mr. Himeko, we were just..."

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay."

Ji Zi was the first to react, and she smiled and waved her hand as if she had known everything for a long time.

"We just didn't pay attention to the timing, don't blame us~"

"I...I already said it's not true..."

"Jiang Ming, what were you doing just now?"

Theresa, who didn't understand anything, saw that Ji Zi seemed to understand but she didn't, so she hurriedly asked.

"Deli......."

Just when Ji Zi was about to stop Theresa, Jiang Ming suddenly spoke.

"Nothing, I just saw that Mei was too tired and wanted to help, but Mei refused me, so I took advantage of Mei's inattention to help do a little thing."

Jiang Ming remained calm and spoke in a serious tone with some serious nonsense.

"That's it..."

Theresa nodded as if she understood.

“Ah…haha…”

Ji Zi shrugged with a stiff smile.

"By the way, Mr. Jizi, Principal Theresa, what is it that you suddenly want to talk to me about?"

Realizing that he would be exposed sooner or later if he continued like this, Jiang Ming looked at Theresa and reminded her.

"Oh! Speaking of this......"

After looking at Ji Zi, Theresa handed a piece of paper full of questions to Jiang Ming.

"?"

Although I still have doubts, I believe that if I focus on paper, the problem will probably be solved.

Jiang Ming looked at the paper Theresa handed over, but after just looking at the first line, he couldn't help but frown slightly, narrowed his eyes, and began to look at the paper carefully.

Although it was only a moment, everyone present still caught it. Himeko and Theresa of course knew the reason, and Mei, the only one who didn't know, looked closer.

But she also couldn't help but cry out and read out what was written above.

"St. Freya Academy Recruiting Teachers?!"
