My outrageous life in Honkai Impact 3

"Mei, where are you? Tell me now!"

Hearing Luo Chen's almost shouting words, Raiden Mei stopped crying and said to Luo Chen in a sob, "I, I'm on the street next to my house, there's a trash can next to me."

"Okay, wait for me, I'll be right there."

Hearing Raiden Mei's reply, Luo Chen slammed the door shut, rushed into the rain without even opening an umbrella, activated his Collapse Ring Energy, and ran towards Raiden Mei's location.

Hearing Luo Chen's hurried footsteps on the phone, Raiden Mei felt her despair lessen somewhat. She said to Luo Chen in a tearful voice, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"I'll apologize later. Wait a few minutes, I'll be there soon."

"Ah."

Luo Chen, who was speeding along the road, wished he could slap himself twice.

"Today is the day that Ryoma got tricked into jail by that old woman Cocolia, how could I forget!"

Thinking this, Luo Chen quickened his pace, completely ignoring the surprised looks from those around him.

"found it!"

After a few minutes of frantic running, Luo Chen found Raiden Mei squatting next to the trash can, looking aggrieved. Without thinking, he ran to her, pulled her up, and hugged her.

"what!"

Feeling someone pull her up, Raiden Mei let out a startled cry, then felt herself being held in that person's arms, and instinctively tried to break free.

"Don't move, I'm coming."

Upon hearing Luo Chen's gentle voice, Raiden Mei's restless body suddenly trembled, and then she collapsed into Luo Chen's arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and bursting into tears.

"Alright, alright, here I am."

Luo Chen put his left arm around Raiden Mei's waist and gently patted her back with his right hand, softly comforting her.

After Raiden Mei's crying subsided, Luo Chen finally spoke up: "It's getting late, and it's not good to stay here in the rain. Let's go home."

"Ah."

"Luo Chen, where did you run off to? Why were you in such a hurry?"

Just as Luo Chen opened the door, a question came from the living room.

"It's nothing, I just went out to pick someone up."

Luo Chen replied, then gestured for Raiden Mei to come inside.

Seeing the latter standing hesitantly at the door, Luo Chen sighed, then grabbed Raiden Mei's wrist and pulled her inside.

"You're the one who asked me to go, but now you won't come in. Besides, I've already come looking for you, so why don't you take me in?"

As he spoke, Luo Chen took the bag from Raiden Mei's hand, his brows furrowing slightly as he looked at her soaking wet appearance.

"You'll catch a cold like this. Go change your clothes first."

Then she turned to the white ball of fluff who was looking at her curiously: "Kiana, lend me a set of clothes so Mei can change."

"You actually brought someone back!" Kiana stared at Luo Chen in shock, then at Raiden Mei, and began to go crazy: "This girl is so pretty! Where did you bring her from?"

Luo Chen stared at Kiana, veins bulging on his forehead, and gave her a sharp rap on the head. He looked at the paramecium with a serious expression and said, "What do you mean you were kidnapped by me? And if I told you to get the clothes, just go get them! Stop talking nonsense!"

Kiana touched her head, about to explode, but the other person's serious expression instantly extinguished her anger, and she had no choice but to obey and go upstairs to get her clothes.

After dealing with Kiana, Luo Chen turned to Raiden Mei and said gently, "After Kiana brings the clothes, take a shower and change your clothes. We'll talk about other things later."

"Ah."

Although Raiden Mei really wanted to ask about Kiana, she felt that she should listen to Luo Chen for now, and she could ask about Kiana later.

After handing the clothes to Raiden Mei, Kiana glanced in the direction of the bathroom, then turned back to Luo Chen and asked curiously, "Where did you kidnap this from?"

"What do you mean by abducting? I took them in."

Luo Chenmei looked at the white fluffy ball with annoyance, casually tossed her soaking wet trench coat onto a chair beside her, and continued, "As for Mei, ask her less questions, or you'll touch a sore spot."

"Oh."

Seeing that she couldn't participate in the gossip, Kiana responded to Luo Chen listlessly, then started giggling again: "That girl is so pretty!"

"It's decided!" Kiana suddenly stood up, her eyes blazing with determination. "I'm going to pursue her! I'm going to make her marry me!"

"Don't go crazy, Kiana. You're just scaring her like this." Luo Chen looked at Kiana's behavior and was speechless. "Your Kaslana family's sexual orientation is still the same."

"What do you mean by 'unchanging'?" Kiana looked at Luo Chen and asked him in confusion.

"I still like girls, especially pretty girls." Luo Chen looked at Kiana, both amused and exasperated. "What would your dad think if he saw you like this?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

Kiana crossed her arms over her chest, turned her head away, and looked like she was ignoring you.

Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Raiden Mei, wearing a set of Homura pajamas, walked out with a shy expression, making Kiana's eyes light up.

"sit down."

Luo Chen pointed to the sofa opposite him, gesturing for Raiden Mei to sit down. Raiden Mei followed his gesture and sat down next to the boy.

Looking at the girl beside him and smelling Raiden Mei's unique fragrance, Luo Chen's body stiffened slightly. He turned to look at Raiden Mei, wanting to tell her to sit further away. But under her pitiful gaze, he ultimately gave up.

"Um, I'm sorry. And... thank you."

Raiden Mei sat next to Luo Chen, clutching the hem of her pajamas with both hands, her head down, not daring to look at Luo Chen.

"It's okay, it's just one more mouth to feed. Kiana eats the equivalent of several people by herself."

Luo Chen smiled at Raiden Mei, then looked at Kiana, his face full of speechlessness.

"Hey! How can you talk about a pretty girl like that?!"

Hearing Luo Chen mocking her, Kiana, who had been grinning foolishly at Raiden Mei, couldn't sit still any longer and glared angrily at Luo Chen.

"Don't you have a big appetite? You ate three days' worth of my food reserves in one meal."

"I..." Kiana couldn't refute it, and crossed her arms, ignoring Luo Chen.

"Okay, don't worry. We're friends, aren't we?"

Seeing that Raiden Mei remained silent, Luo Chen continued, "I just inquired about your father's matter."

Seeing Raiden Mei's body tremble slightly, Luo Chen sighed and looked at her, "Although I don't know him, my intuition tells me your father isn't that kind of person. So..."

As he spoke, Luo Chen placed his right hand on Raiden Mei's head and gently stroked it.

"Don't worry, you can stay at my house now, so don't feel guilty."

“Yeah, yeah.” Kiana was unhappy with the interaction between the two. She ran to sit down next to Raiden Mei, and took her hand amidst the other’s exclamation, saying, “Luo Chen won’t mind. After all, he’s a good person.”

"You talk like you know me perfectly. And please don't just give people the 'friend card' so easily."

Luo Chen rolled his eyes at Kiana and explained to Raiden Mei, "I haven't introduced her to you yet. This is Kiana Kaslana, my tenant."

"Hello, my name is Kiana Kaslana."

Kiana looked at Raiden Mei and gave her a sunny smile.

"Hello, my name is Raiden Mei."

Raiden Mei raised her head, forcing a smile, and looked at Kiana.

"So you're Raiden-senpai! You're really beautiful."

Hearing Kiana's words, Raiden Mei felt a little confused and turned to look at Luo Chen.

"Kiana only transferred to Chiyu Academy a few days ago, and I met her by accident. She just arrived in Changkong and didn't have a place to stay, and I had a spare room, so we stayed together."

Seeing Raiden Mei looking at him, Luo Chen explained to her. After Kiana nodded, Raiden Mei said, "I see."

"Senior Mei, don't worry, I will always believe in you."

"Thank you." Raiden Mei thanked Kiana, then seemed to remember something and turned to Luo Chen: "Um, Luo Chen, did you just call me Mei?"

"Eh? Um, just now..." Recalling the situation just now, Luo Chen felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head: "I was a little hasty just now, sorry, it won't happen again."

"If you like, you can continue to call me that."

After saying this, Raiden Mei blushed and tucked her head slightly into her pajamas, looking shyly at Luo Chen with her eyes.

"Well, alright then." Looking at Raiden Mei's expression, Luo Chen knew that even if he refused, the girl would still say that in the future; it wasn't something he wanted to call her that.

"So, Mei?"

"Ah."

Hearing the boy gently call her name, Mei softly answered, then continued, "Um, about the rent, I'll go out and find a job."

Do you think you can find a job smoothly in your current situation?

Luo Chen's words were a heavy blow to Mei. Yes, who would want the daughter of a con artist?

"Don't worry, even if you can't work, you can pay it back with other means."

Seeing that Mei was in low spirits, Luo Chen comforted her, but his words had a different meaning to the girl.

"He won't, but it seems like it's not impossible for me to...

As Mei thought this, scenes from Far Eastern films kept flashing through her mind, and her already red face turned even redder.

"What are you thinking about? Don't fill your mind with strange things."
