Before the collapse of civilization, kiss Mebius at the beginning

The old man was so angry that he was so angry.

"Father!"

Hearing her father's words, MEI felt her heart twitch violently, and a particularly sour emotion permeated her mind.

Without time to cry, MEI quickly hugged her father, took a deep breath to adjust her mood, and said,

"Father...you...don't have to be so strong. Kevin and I are no longer children..."

"Not...children..."

Raiden Ryoma's eyes were a little dazed. After the blind anger was extinguished, there was an unprecedented emptiness and confusion.

At this time, the old housekeeper came to MEI with his injured body, and said with a complicated face:

"Miss, you may not know about this, but I think that as the daughter of the chairman, you have the right to know. The chairman... was diagnosed with 'Honkai Disease' a few days ago..."

"I'm not sick!!"

Hearing the words of the old housekeeper, Raiden Ryoma's originally confused eyes suddenly widened, and he said angrily,

"And! Things about Honkai are confidential! You old guy told my precious daughter this, do you want to kill her?!!"

As he said, the angry Raiden Ryoma subconsciously grabbed the things around him that could be thrown out, but his arms were suspended in the air.

At the critical moment, Kevin threw the cleaning work to his good brother Su at lightning speed, and he quickly stepped forward to stop Raiden Ryoma's actions. Because according to the father-in-law's actions, if Kevin did not stop him, then MEI, who was standing in front of the Thunder Dragon Horse, would most likely be injured.

Seeing the gentle Uncle Long who had become so irritable, Kevin always felt as if an invisible stone was pressing on his heart.

The stone was light, so light that it was not enough to be noticed by the world.

The stone was heavy, heavy enough to crush Kevin and MEI's originally peaceful life.

Kevin's expression was extremely complicated, and MEI's emotions were even more like a knife.

In this case, MEI could only force herself not to cry by taking deep breaths continuously. She found herself stupid, really stupid.

As Xu Ziling said, she really hadn't seen her father in person for a long, long time.

So much so that she almost forgot that her father was actually a very strong man. No matter what kind of difficulties and dangers he encountered in his career, he would never show them to his most precious daughter.

Online communication did save the father and daughter time, but it also gave the father time to pretend everything was calm and composed, after all, he didn't want his daughter to see his embarrassment.

Thinking of this, MEI's fingers trembled slightly. She finally understood why every time she took the initiative to call her father, the other party would pause for a while before answering the phone.

At this time, the old housekeeper looked at the chairman of his family who was almost omnipotent in the past, and sighed for a long time.

Then, regardless of the pain in his body, the old housekeeper continued to explain to MEI:

"Miss, you have joined the Fire Moth, and you already have someone who can listen to your crying and pain anytime and anywhere... Therefore, there is no need to keep many things from you.

In fact, as early as a month ago, the chairman had been infected with the "Honkai Disease"..."

Hearing this news, MEI's already painful heart trembled again. She quickly turned her head to look at the old housekeeper. Her clenched teeth and swirling tears told of her current mood.

The old housekeeper also knew what MEI wanted to ask. After a complicated look at the chairman who was confused again because of his restraint, he began his own explanation——

……

Raiden Ryoma.

This is the final decision-maker of ME Company in Far East Province of Shenzhou. Before he was fifty, he had already pushed his company into the ranks of the world's top 500 with his own strength. His entrepreneurial experience from scratch made him the dream of countless workers.

While being admired by countless people, he actually has another identity.

A husband who lost his wife.

A father who vowed to let his daughter never experience the pain of the world again.

And he did it.

MEI, the only daughter of Raiden Ryoma. Since she was born, Raiden Ryoma has devoted all his care and love to his daughter, and he protects her meticulously.

He gave her more resources than 99% of the families.

And MEI did not disappoint Lei Dian Long Ma. At such a young age, her academic achievements had attracted the attention of the world, and even the moth hidden in the dark had extended an olive branch to MEI.

As a father, Lei Dian Long Ma spent almost half his life to barely receive the same olive branch.

But it was because he could not get it when he was young that Lei Dian Long Ma, as a father, knew the danger of moths.

He used the network of relationships he had accumulated over the years to intercept the invitation letter sent to his daughter and put it away. He planned to wait until his daughter's 18th birthday to take it out, so that his daughter could make a decision by her own will and reach the ending she expected.

And MEI's birthday is April 13.

It has passed.

MEI also made her own choice.

She wants to continue to develop her academic heart.

Since this is her own choice, Lei Dian Long Ma, as a father, will not say anything. Lei Dian Long Ma used numerous connections to contact the highest senator in Europe, hoping to pave the way for his daughter's future.

And the other party did agree to Lei Dian Long Ma's request and gave his daughter a two-month secret inspection.

Then... Lei Dian Long Ma chose to continue running the company. His daughter had made her own choice, and he had paved the way for her future. He managed the company well so that his daughter would never worry about money... This is the most a father can do for his daughter...

Starting from the day of his daughter's birthday, the two-month secret inspection of Chasing Fire Moth passed in a flash.

During this period, Lei Dian Long Ma was not idle, although he knew that with his daughter's talent, it would not be a problem to pass the secret inspection of the European senator.

But as a father, he couldn't let his daughter go to Chasing Fire Moth alone to seek development, that would be too dangerous.

So, Lei Dian Long Ma began to create opportunities for the big boy who often took him to the noodle shop and respectfully called him "Uncle Long" to apply for a job in Chasing Fire.

Young people should always have a companion.

The boy's character has passed the test of his father. Since his daughter likes him, the only thing the father can do is to support him.

Although it makes Lei Dian Long Ma very unhappy to entrust his precious daughter to someone else, it is undeniable that Lei Dian Long Ma, as a father, has also fantasized that he can live a peaceful life with children and grandchildren one day.

The daughter is young and promising, and the son-in-law is sunny and responsible. He controls the financial resources, so that his children and grandchildren can be happy and pursue whatever they like. Such a family... is really good.

But the dream will eventually wake up and dissipate like clouds and mist, and all the fantasies of beauty will become a bubble.

The cause of the incident was a trivial, even unreasonable change.

That day, at the same time when the young man who pursued peace finally got his wish and returned to heaven. Lei Dian Long Ma, who was far away from home, also felt an unexplained irritability.

This strange feeling was very weak at first, so weak that Raiden Ryoma himself did not connect this feeling with the "collapse" which was still very scarce at the time.

Compared with his own unreasonable emotions, Raiden Ryoma at that time was more concerned about his daughter.

Raiden Ryoma, who could calmly deal with any accidents in the past, contacted his subordinates who were still arranged in Changkong City like crazy, but his focus was not on the headquarters that was knocked down by the tank-level collapse beast and the funds lost by ME Society, but on Qianyu Academy.

Because when the disaster broke out, Raiden Ryoma's daughter, MEI, went to school there...

Fortunately, MEI was not injured. After Raiden Ryoma used countless relationships and paid a lot of blood, MEI was rescued in time and went to Mu Continent safely.

However, after everything was settled, the chairman, who should have been thinking about how to recover the losses of ME Society headquarters, was horrified to find that he could not get rid of the emotion called "anxiety"!

Yes, it was literally anxiety-ridden. The chairman couldn't calm down and think, just like an old soldier who had been on the battlefield for a long time suddenly forgot how to shoot. This feeling was so weird.

The loyal butler for many years noticed his abnormality and introduced him to the doctor of the Fire Moth, but got the answer that no one wanted to face -

Honkai disease.

But shouldn't Honkai disease mean that the body is corrupted, the mind degenerates into a beast, and the body is transformed into a dead soldier or a Honkai beast? ?

Why is it manifested in him so lingering?

Anxiety?

Also, when the Honkai broke out, he was clearly in Australia to discuss business? He had no contact with Honkai the whole time, so why did he get the Honkai disease?

Why did he have no symptoms of secondary infection after being infected with Honkai for so long? Aren't all the people around him fine?

Why?

The healer did not answer. He just silently recorded the symptoms of Raiden Ryoma and marked a bright red "X" on the case.

Then, the healer gave his own advice.

Sell assets and enjoy your old age.

Yes... Because of Honkai disease, the chairman who used to be able to handle documents easily, now feels uneasy as long as he sits on the table in the office. The scene of the headquarters collapsing and the notice of other companies refusing assistance constantly appear in his mind. He can't make any reasonable decisions and judgments at all. The possibility of continuing to run the company is infinitely close to zero.

But this is not the point. What makes Raiden Ryoma unacceptable is that the European leader rejected the secret investigation of MEI. Although MEI can still join the Fire Moth, it must start from the bottom!

This is too different from the road paved by the father for his daughter! !

The reason is that his father is infected with the collapse disease!

This illogical and even unreasonable thing easily shattered the beauty that a father had laid out for half his life.

All the efforts of Raiden Ryoma were reduced to nothing under this unreasonable collapse.

Of course, let's put it another way.

It only takes an unreasonable accident and a nonsensical illness to overturn the beauty that a father has painstakingly planned.

So life... it is bitter like a song...

Under the superposition of many events, he became extreme, he became furious, he became forgetful, he became... unlike him.

Raiden Ryoma may have noticed this, but he can't do anything about it. Reality is not a novel, and he is not the protagonist. It is ridiculous to rely on willpower to overcome the erosion of the collapse.

Only when he communicates with MEI can he barely suppress his anxious rage, put on a "I'm fine" smile, and talk to his daughter.

Just like now.

...

"Heh..."

After the old butler told MEI everything, Raiden Ryoma also recovered from his previous irritability and anger. There was no sharpness and edge of the chairman in his eyes, only confusion and hesitation.

"MEI? And...Kevin? I...sigh..."

Looking at the mess in the room, and Kevin and MEI hugging him, Raiden Ryoma sighed and said,

"I...seem to have forgotten a lot of things. When did you...come back? You didn't even tell me. Ha...haha, Kevin, the noodle shop you recommended last time is actually pretty good. Let's go there again if we have a chance...

And MEI, I know you feel sorry for me, but aren't you going to take the college entrance exam soon? Don't worry, Dad is in good health, you can go and take it with peace of mind I can manage the exam and the company's affairs by myself..."

"Father! ..."

Hearing the still strong but completely illogical words of Lei Dian Long Ma, MEI couldn't help but shed tears. She wiped her face with her sleeves and said with a trembling voice,

"Father... I... I have been recommended... You... You don't have to worry about me anymore... I will protect you..."

"Recommended... Ah..."

Hearing this word, Lei Dian Long Ma was stunned. After a while, he looked at Kai in a daze. Kevin asked,

"Xiao Kai... what day is it today?"

Kevin didn't know what the "Honkai Disease" that the housekeeper just described was, but he knew that his father-in-law needed care at the moment, so he quickly stepped forward to support his arm and said:

"Uncle Long... today is June 17th in Shenzhou..."

"Ah... then it seems that the exam is over at this time... Hey, look at my memory..."

Raiden Ryoma smiled a little ashamedly and said to MEI,

"MEI, the exam is over, how come Why don't you tell dad? Hey, I totally forgot... Come on, no matter how you do in the exam, today is a day worth celebrating. Today, dad will pay for it, and we will go to a restaurant as a family... Xiaokai, come and help Mei. If Mei doesn't work later, you have to drink a few more glasses with me, haha." Hearing her father's words, Mei's heart twitched violently. Her father's confused mind made her really want to cry. She really wanted to kneel down and cry about the injustice of fate, but her reason told her that now was not the time to cry.

Time, she must hold back.

But reason told her that now was not the time to cry. Her father had just fallen ill, so it was reasonable that he could still be saved. If... if that person was willing to help, everything would still be hopeful!

Thinking of this, MEI quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, forced a serious expression and looked at her father, saying:

"Father, now is not the time to go out for dinner together... You... You must come with me now, I want... to take you to find someone."

"Is it okay with me?"

Just like in his memory, Thunder Horse would never refuse his daughter's request. Then he held his forehead with some tiredness, muttering to himself,

"MEI... my daughter... no matter what you do... I support you..."

"Okay."

Hearing this, MEI nodded heavily, then winked at Kevin and said,

"Father, come with me, I will take you to find someone."

"Who?"

Raiden Ryoma, who was confused, asked subconsciously.

"Mebius."

...
