Chapter 135: What are you doing!
"It's all thanks to you today, Kevin." Kiana still smelled of alcohol. Although she was not drunk, she definitely reached the standard for drunk driving.
Fortunately, they met Kevin on the way back; otherwise, with her aunt's driving skills, they might not be able to get back until midnight.
However, her driving skills were obviously rejected by everyone, and Theresa had a puffy face all the way.
"Nothing, these are just small matters. My girlfriend Mei just happened to come back from her lab project."
"She arrived at the station at midnight today, and she wanted to try some desserts from your store, so I came over to get some desserts and then pick her up."
Kevin scratched his head sheepishly. Although he was shy, the smile that appeared on his face completely exposed his inner joy.
The couple who had rarely been together could finally have a good reunion.
"Dr. Mei..." Kiana slowly recalled the information about Dr. Mei in her mind.
In the Honkai world, there is a top human doctor who looks very similar to Mei. She leads several plans from destroy the previous civilization.
But in this world... she is just an ordinary researcher, just like Dr. Mobius of the Thirteen Flame Chaser Heroes.
It's just that she often travels on business, so she and her boyfriend Kevin are often apart. Otherwise, with the relationship between Dr. Mei and Kevin, they should have gotten married a long time ago.
Kevin parked the car slowly and said half-jokingly, "I'm a free driver today, boss lady; if I want to buy something, you have to give me a friendly price."
"No problem. I will pack all the unsold desserts in the store into a big gift bag for you, Kevin... Dr. Mei will definitely be very happy when she sees it," Kiana said very generously.
In fact, many times, there are many desserts in the store that are not sold on the same day and are not suitable to be kept until the next day.
Kiana would occasionally distribute these desserts to her friends.
Everyone living in the Golden Courtyard also received a lot of money, and Kiana heard Elysia say more than once that she seemed to have gained a lot of weight.
However, Kiana has reservations about this. In this world, Elysia can sleep ten hours a day, and her mouth is constantly moving for at least 4 to 6 hours out of the remaining four hours.
Have you been maintaining this deadly routine, only to end up complaining about whether your waistline has gotten fatter?
Kiana said that Elysia is the real strong one...
Himeko woke up so happily when the car was parked, but looking at her hazy eyes, it was obvious that she was not completely sober yet.
"You keep mumbling to me! Give me the wine; I can still drink!"
Among all the people present, Kiana could only carry Teacher Himeko, who couldn't even walk.
To be honest, it was only after Kiana joined St. Freya's Academy as a teacher that she saw Himeko like this after class.
You know, in Kiana's previous impression, Himeko always maintained a dignified look on weekdays.
Theresa, on the other hand, has always been consistent... It seems that no matter where she is or when she is, she is still the kind of person who is trustworthy even when facing difficulties.
But normally, she acts as if she always needs to be coaxed by others.
But unfortunately... in this world that has no Honkai energy, there is no difficulty worth relying on Theresa.
"Okay, Aunt, stop being angry. I'll ask the captain to make you your favorite bitter melon milk jelly later..."
"Really?" Theresa's expression suddenly changed from gloomy to bright; her eyes were shining, and she was even drooling.
Seeing this scene, Kiana couldn't help but sigh, as if she had become a mother and was more adept at dealing with Theresa...
The group chatted and laughed as they slowly returned to the dessert shop.
"Eh?" Kiana looked at the lights still on in the dessert shop on the first floor with some confusion. "It's already this late; hasn't the captain finished cleaning up yet? Why are the lights on the first floor still on?"
"And Little Ai yi has hidden herself again now?" She carefully sensed and did not notice that her daughter Kiana's brows were frowned.
Ever since Little Ai was born, she has been like a very special Herrscher. As the Herrscher of the Finality, Kiana can feel her daughter even at a certain distance in this world.
Unless Little Ai used her special ability that she had shown since she was a baby to hide herself...
"But Ai-chan hasn't made any mistakes or acted naughty at school recently. There's no reason for her to hide herself like this."
A bad premonition arose in her heart as she got closer and closer to the door.
The bad feeling in her heart is getting worse and worse...
She walked slowly to the door, frowned, and pushed it open, accompanied by the sound of the wind chime at the door, whose paint had peeled off due to the passage of time, turning the bolt.
What Kiana saw was...
A woman actually hugged her captain tightly in her arms and pressed him against the wall!
Looking at this scene in front of her, Kiana's brain went blank for a moment.
Himeko, who was originally supporting her, instinctively let go.
"Hey? What's wrong? Was it an earthquake?" On the contrary, Himeko, who was lightly thrown down, seemed to sober up a little.
Kevin, who came in later, was also a little dumbfounded.
The back of the woman who was hugging the store manager intimately looked so much like his girlfriend, Dr. Mei.
But after rubbing his eyes vigorously, Kevin still carefully discovered some subtle differences...
"Is that... Miss Mei whom I met before?" Although Kevin in this world had only seen Mei a few times, he was aware of her appearance.
Kevin was still very impressed by Mei...
"But." Kevin silently took a few steps back in the other direction.
Looking at Kiana, who seemed to have temporarily crashed beside him, why did he feel like he had witnessed every incident at home?
With a complicated expression, he looked at the couple at the other end of the bar who were still hugging each other tightly, not noticing the changes in the outside world.
"I didn't expect that the store manager would be such a person... Does this count as catching him red-handed?" Kevin seemed very embarrassed now.
