CHAPTER XXIV
On the day off, in the beautiful small garden of the Green House Restaurant, Meiyi and Xingchen, Liuxi, Qiluo, Hanako and others raised their glasses and drank freely, after drinking, everyone was in a fog, and they didn't know why and where Meiyi got the money to invite everyone to dinner.
Mei Yi smiled and said, "I'm very sorry to call everyone out during the upcoming mid-term exams, I have news to announce: I will be teaching at the True Spirit Academy next month as a lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and a teaching assistant in the Department of Literature...... Ha, like you, I'm wondering, what does literature have to do with me? Whatever, who wouldn't want a double wage? β
"I had a very pleasant two months at Hualing Academy, thank you for your company and help." Mei Yi said, "The True Spirit Academy seems to know that I am so poor that I can't afford to take a car to the True Spirit City, and gave me an advance of a month's salary, which is quite a lot, so please don't scruple and order what you like to eat." β
Everyone stopped talking, and when Mei Yi saw this, she said, "There is no feast in the world." I've thought about it, and it's a very ideal choice for me. Going from a small border town like Hoshino to teaching at a university in the national capital was fantastic enough for me. β
After speaking, Mei Yi picked up the drink in her hand and smiled rightΒ·Β· He said, "Kira, thank you for helping me improve my life from time to time. β
Kira forced a smile: "It's nothing, don't care." β
Mei Yi said to Liuxi, whose eyes were red, "Liuxi, thank you for saving my dog's life several times." I'm really ashamed to let you waste two miracles on me alone. β
Tears fell down the tide, and he choked up and said, "It's not a waste of ......"
"Hanabi," said Mei Yi, "it has been a pleasure to discuss mathematical problems with you several times, and many of your questions are very enlightening to me, and I have already thought about the next research topic, and I plan to use mathematical methods to systematically study and explain the economy of the kingdom, and I believe that when the time comes, you will be able to solve the problems you raised, such as 'money is not worth money'." β
Hanabi said cheerfully, "Okay, I'll wait and see." β
Mei Yi and Xingchen looked at each other affectionately for a long time before saying, "Ha, Xingchen, my cowhide was blown up, and I didn't let you hug your thighs, but dragged you back." β
When Xingchen heard this, tears rolled down his eyes, and he couldn't say anything.

Serena had been lying in her room since she had come back last night, staring blankly at the ceiling, not saying anything.
She hadn't seen Mei Yi since that day when she told her that she was going to teach at the True Spirit Academy. Yesterday, Mei Yi took the initiative to invite her to eat at the Green House Restaurant, but she just said lightly that she had something to do tomorrow and couldn't go.
At noon, the Duchess did not see Serena in the dining room, so she went to Serena's room. When she saw Serena's sloppy appearance lying on the bed with her hair messy, she said, "Miss, quickly clean up yourself, the most famous True Spirit Theater in the kingdom will come to perform at the Flower Spirit Theater, and accompany me to see it." β
When Serena heard the word Zhenling, she was very resistant in her heart, and she was a hundred unwilling, but she didn't have the courage to say no to the Duchess, so she had to obediently get up and brush her teeth, wash her face and eat breakfast, dress up beautifully, and take a car with her wife to the Hualing Theater.
In the carriage, Serena asked, "Madam, why didn't the second princess come together?" β
The Duchess said, "She...... She's tutoring math in her study. I can keep up with other classes, but I can't do math. Thanks to the fact that you copied a math handout from the library and gave it to her, she is much better off studying now. This author is really low-level, and the title of the book is not good, but it is called "What is so difficult about bullshit mathematics". β
Before Serena could speak, the Duchess said, "By the way, not long ago, Avril sorted out the story that Mei Yi told you and sent it to the True Spirit Bookstore, so that if it can be published, Mei Yi will not have to nibble on cold bread." Hey, isn't that Meiyi? Why is the girl next to him so familiar? β
Serena's heart tightened, she hurriedly opened the curtain to see, sure enough, it was fireworks and Meiyi. I saw Mei Yi thank Hua Huo again and again: "Hua Huo, thanks to your rescue, who knew that the Green House Restaurant was so expensive, and one meal was not even enough for a hundred silver coins." β
"Last time, I took us to the second place in the Liuxi Celebration Monthly Exam, and I thought it was a cheap restaurant that students could afford...... It's such a shame. When I take up my post at the True Spirit Academy, I will definitely return the money to you as soon as possible. β
Serena thought to herself: Great fool! Green House Restaurant is the top restaurant in the fairy in the flowers, which is a cheap restaurant? Wait a minute! It seems that the day of Liuxi's celebration was the same day as me and Eastin going out to dinner, could it be that I was eating with Eastin and was bumped into by them......
Serena's heart suddenly cooled, and a deep sense of shame welled up in her heart.
Hanabi smiled and said, "Who let you die to save face?" Liuxi's mother desperately wanted to give you a free order, but you desperately refused. Don't worry, didn't you agree to accompany me to see this play? β
After Mei Yi thanked her, she insisted: "Fireworks, the cost of buying a ticket is just what you paid for me, and I will return it to you later." β
Hanabi said disappointedly: "Then you can't buy a good position, it's a pity, this is the hottest drama in the kingdom in recent years." I promised you, and if I continue to fight with you, the drama will start soon. She smiled and pulled Meiyi to buy a ticket and go in without saying anything.
The Duchess, seeing Serena in a trance, knew what she was thinking, so she said to the conductor, "Two tickets, and we'll sit directly behind the two just now." β
In the dark theater, the Duchess and Serena sat directly behind Mei Yi and the fireworks. The Duchess knew that it was very wrong for her to do so, but she did not want to see Serena's uneasy appearance.
The announcer said: "Next, please watch the latest drama arranged by the True Spirit Theater - "First Night: Cinderella", the script is adapted from the "Flower Spirit Fairy Tale Anthology", author: Mei Yi, arrangement: Alyssa, screenwriter: Lomy. β
Mei Yi said in surprise: "Huh? There is someone with the same name as me, and I thought my name was very special. Is there really such a person as Elisa? Thinking of this, he muttered, "Yes, there are princesses and princes in this world, and maybe Cinderella and Alyssa also exist." Anyway, I crossed over to Ha
A fairytale world in D-mode? β
The Duchess knew what was going on as soon as she heard the news, and wondered why Avril must have let me see it. She whispered to Serena, "Now I believe you, he is a great fool, and he has many words that are inexplicable. β
Serena nodded blankly. She felt like she had been stripped naked in public, and all her pride and self-esteem were gone.
Hanabi said in surprise, "You don't know who Alyssa is?" Do you know who Kira, Ryuxi, Xingchen, Serena and I are? β
"Alyssa is the heroine of the fairy tale 'The Wild Swan,' my favorite female character when I was a child," Mei Yi said. Are you asking me about Kira, Liuxi, Xingchen, Serena, and your identity? Serena is a knight, and the Xingchen family is engaged in the arms trade, and I don't know about others. All I know is that you are all my friends. β
Hanabi smiled happily: "Enough." The drama begins, let's concentrate on it. β
Mei Yi looked at it, and her brows furrowed, because this drama was almost exactly the same as the content of "Cinderella" he told Serena!
When he heard the actor sing hard, "Father, please bring me jewelry and jade", "Father, please bring me a gorgeous dress", "Father, please bring me the first branch that crossed your shoulder during that long journey", the whole person was not good.
Could it be that the Meiyi that the announcer said was me?
