Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 86: Shock



Li Yan just left and Li Mo came to school. He instantly felt something was off. The prevalent stares gave it away.

Huang Yao glared at Li Mo, “It’s all your fault. If not for you, I would’ve gotten many more pamphlets!”

“What?”

Huang Yao twisted her head away.

Li Mo didn’t feel like asking either and went to his seat.

Huang Yao walked before Li Mo, “I’m going to see Meimei after classes.”

“I’m busy.”

“How can you be like this? If not for you, Meimei and I wouldn’t have quarreled today. Wanting you to come with me and see her isn’t too much to ask.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“Never mind, we’re part of different worlds anyway. But remember this, it is your very conduct that disappoints me so much.”

“Huang Yao, get it straight already. Not once have I had a good opinion of you. If not for your father, I wouldn’t even speak to you.

“But you were right about one thing. We are part of different worlds. We are certain not to meet ever again in the future.”

“Relax, I will surely not meet you.”

Huang Yao returned to her seat.

After school, Li Mo returned home by bus. Huang Yao took the same bus too and was startled to see Li Mo there.

At the Phoenix District, they both got off.

“Didn’t you say you won’t join me? I just can’t fathom you men’s twisted logic.”

Li Mo heard her and turned, “Young miss Huang, you’re mistaken. I didn’t come to see Meimei with you. I am going home.”

“Home? You rented a place here?”

“I mentioned this last time that my house is here.”

“Fine, fine. I believe you.” Although she said that, her face clearly conveyed the opposite.

“Suit yourself. By the way, regarding what you said to me today, I need to mention something. Your disappointment in me is only because I have no money. Am I right?”

“That’s not the only reason. Like today for example. I asked you to see Meimei together, but you can’t agree to even this simple thing, saying you are busy. If you’re so busy, why are you here then? Saying one thing and doing another. Your type is the most annoying.” Huang Yao bickered.

“Suit yourself.”

Li Mo walked away.

“Where are you going?”

“Home.”

“S-stop right there!”

Li Mo turned a deaf ear.

“If you stop, I-I will give you a chance to pursue me.”

Li Mo not only didn’t stop but sped up,  angering Huang Yao into boring her eyes into him.

Huang Yao arrived at Ye Mei’s home and rang the bell.

Ye Mei saw it was Huang Yao and said, “Come in.”

“I won’t be entering. I just came to say something to you.”

Ye Mei gnashed her teeth, “Huang Yao, I was wrong today. I want to apologize.”

“There’s no need.”

“I have very few friends and I consider you one of them.” Ye Mei’s eyes were red.

“I… don’t.” Huang Yao continued, “I came today to tell you that we are no longer friends.” 

“Why? I apologized.”

“It’s not because of that, but who you are. I just can’t stand you.

“You always call me to help you do this, do that. In short, no matter how hard it is I’m always there to lend a hand. But did you ever help me? Not once. To you, I am an inferior person for you to order around. Is that what you call a friend? You never took me for one from the start. That is why I believe it is best if I am honest.

“Goodbye.” Huang Yao left.

“Go then! All of you! I don’t need anyone!” Ye Mei slammed the door.

But then she opened it again a moment later, running out in tears.

“Huang Yao, I was wrong. Don’t go. Stay and talk to me.”

Ye Mei ran down the stairs and looked everywhere for Huang Yao.

Ye Mei was now bawling.

She was merely a 16-year-old girl, after all.

In the middle of crying, An Yuxin walked past with food in hand. She was shocked when she saw Ye Mei, “Ye Mei? Who was hard on you?”

“Class monitor An? Why are you here?”

Ye Mei was also startled by An Yuxin’s appearance.

“I am going to Li Mo’s and happened to pass by. What’s wrong, why are you crying?”

“I… I…” Ye Mei sobbed again.

But then she stopped out of the blue, “You’re saying you’re going to Li Mo’s? Li Mo lives here?”

“Yeah, over there.” An Yuxin pointed.

Ye Mei yelled in shock.

Li Mo told her last time that he lived here but Ye Mei didn’t believe him.

Ye Mei may not believe Li Mo but she did An Yuxin.

“Come in.”

An Yuxin took out a key and opened the door to Li Mo’s house, inviting the dumbstruck Ye Mei beside her inside. 

“This is Li Mo’s house?” Ye Mei found it hard to believe.

“It is!”

An Yuxin took Ye Mei to the living room and called out for a few times but no one answered.

“Li Mo is often away.”

An Yuxin told Ye Mei to make herself at home while she began to clean the floor with a mop.

She never considered this work demeaning so she didn’t try to hide it from Ye Mei.

Ye Mei was impatient, “Why are you cleaning for him? You’re not his maid.”

An Yuxin smiled, “I am his servant. He hired me to do laundry, cook, and clean.”

“He’s too much. How can he order around a fellow classmate?”

“Aren’t you the same?”

Ye Mei chocked on her words. Ye Mei never liked to hang out with An Yuxin because she wasn’t like Huang Yao, buttering her up.

“Y-you can’t be a couple, right?”

“Of course not.” An Yuxin blushed.

“We are master and servant. He lent me some money and said that I don’t need to repay him. I am already owing him so much so I decided to help him.

“He didn’t force me. He is very kind.”

Ye Mei snorted, “Putting on such a scowl every day, how is he so nice to all who owe him? He’s not nice at all.”

As they talked, three heads stuck out through a door upstairs.

The largest was the panda, the average one, Su Qingyi, and the smallest the dalmatian plushie.

Su Qingyi whispered, “Brother Mo said the one mopping the floor is called An Yuxin. A good friend of his. But I don’t know the other. Brother Mo never mentioned her.”

“Wu~” The panda nodded.

The dalmatian plushie opened its snout but no word came out.

“But no matter who it is, we must never show ourselves.”

“Wu~” The panda nodded.

The dalmatian plushie bolted. What she liked best was to go against Li Mo at any chance she got.

Bang!

The panda’s claw nailed it to the floor then tossed it back inside…

Li Mo wasn’t home since he Transferred to an unranked planet.
