Chapter 283: Hori Kyoko wakes up early
"."

Boss Kobayashi couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he saw her reaction, and a row of black lines appeared on his forehead.

The bartender who was mixing drinks nearby couldn't help laughing out loud, and the cocktail shaker in his hand almost flew away.

"Don't worry! I don't like women!" Boss Kobayashi took a deep breath and said darkly.

"what?"

This time it was Tsukimi Eiko's turn to be stunned after hearing it.

Although they have known each other for a long time, she just realized that Boss Kobayashi doesn't like women.

"No wonder I've never seen the boss get close to any woman."

Yuejian Yingzi couldn't help but grumble, while Boss Kobayashi turned his head with a dark face and looked at the bartender who just laughed out loud, as if asking: "Didn't you say Yingzi has a boyfriend? Could it be that Yingzi has learned to lie?"

Seeing this, the bartender smiled elegantly again, then turned to look at Yuejian Yingzi and asked, "Did Yingzi meet a boy you like today?"

"Eh?"

Upon hearing this, Yuejian Yingzi was stunned again.

But what was different from before was that this time, when she came to her senses, her whole face turned red.

Even a fool could see that the bartender was obviously right.

At the same time, Boss Kobayashi also realized that it was not that Tsukimi Eiko had not met a boy she liked, but she just had not yet confirmed the relationship with him and started dating him.

"Does Yingzi really have a boy she likes? Who is that boy? Is he always wrong? Is he a customer who has been to the store? I tell you, all the boys who come to the nightclub are not good guys and are not suitable for Yingzi at all!"

The bartender at the side rolled his eyes silently.

He secretly complained in his heart: "Before, it was 'few good things', but now it has become 'no good things'."

At the same time, Yue Jianyingzi also blushed and waved her hands and said, "I'm not a customer of the store, yes, yes."

Tsukimi Eiko hesitated for a long time and couldn't say Iura Hide's name, which made Boss Kobayashi so anxious that he was almost scratching his head.

Even the bartender, who had been very calm, became curious at this moment. Who exactly did Tsukimi Eiko like and why was she too embarrassed to speak up?

"A low-paid wage earner? An average company employee? Or a gang member? He can't be a rich old man, right?"

The bartender casually gave out a few of his own guesses, and as a result, both Tsukimi Eiko and Boss Kobayashi instantly got furious.

"Impossible! How could Yingzi-chan possibly fall for those guys!"

"Master Xiu is not like that!"

The two of them blurted out at the same time, especially Tsukimi Eiko, who stared at the bartender, with whom she usually had a good relationship, with her big eyes, and couldn't help but clench her fists.

But then, Boss Kobayashi suddenly turned his head and looked at her like the bartender, with a look of surprise on his face.

"What did you just say? Lord Xiu? You are not talking about the Lord Xiu that you always mention recently, right?"

Tsukimi Eiko's temper comes quickly and goes away even faster.

Being stared at by two people like this, the original anger and dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant, and only shyness and embarrassment were left in my heart.

However, Boss Kobayashi and the bartender are good friends, and she is indeed not good at lying.

The most important thing is that she really wants to show off her experience today.

So after hesitating for a while, she finally nodded slightly with a red face.

then
"What? It turns out you're just chasing stars~" Boss Kobayashi couldn't help but laugh, his expression instantly relaxed.

On the other hand, the bartender felt a little regretful. He didn't know whether he was regretful that Tsukimi Eiko didn't meet the person she liked, or regretful that he had guessed wrong.

then
"What do these two guys mean!? Am I not worthy of meeting Master Xiu, and not worthy of liking Master Xiu!?"

Tsukimi Eiko looked at the two people's reactions, first she blinked innocently, and then her whole face suddenly turned red.

"I'm not a star chaser!"

Tsukimi Eiko clenched her fists and spoke angrily, like an irritated puffer fish.

Then, without waiting for the bartender and Boss Kobayashi to speak, she quickly told them all her experiences that afternoon.

Finally, he said with great pride and satisfaction: "Not only did I get the song that Master Xiu wrote specifically for me, but I also kissed Master Xiu! So."

So, rounding it off, she can be considered Mr. Xiu’s woman~!

Of course, she was just thinking about the second half of the sentence in her mind and didn't have the nerve to actually say it out loud.

But even so, Boss Kobayashi was already stunned.

Even the bartender opened his mouth unconsciously after hearing this, and the cocktail shaker in his hand slammed on the hard bar counter with a bang. You can imagine how surprised he was.

After a long while, Boss Kobayashi finally came to his senses and couldn't help asking, "So, you want to pursue that Jingpu Xiu?"

"Of course!"

Although Tsukimi Eiko was extremely shy, she bravely admitted her thoughts without hesitation.

"This"

Boss Kobayashi and the bartender looked at each other in surprise when they heard this.

Although Tsukimi Eiko is very beautiful, has a lovely personality, is simple and kind, and has had such a wonderful encounter with Iura Hide.

But after all, Tsukimi Eiko is just an unknown and ordinary bar singer!
With such an identity, is it really possible to pursue a super popular genius high school student like Iura Hide?
Although they don't like to worship Iura Hide as much as Tsukimi Eiko, because Tsukimi Eiko always mentions him and Iura Hide is really popular recently, they are still very familiar with Iura Hide.

Especially after listening to "Sold Out" and "Night Dance", Boss Kobayashi has always wanted to invite Iura Hide to perform in his bar.

It's a pity that all the private messages he sent through Spotify and YouTube fell on deaf ears. Even though he offered a price of 100 million for three songs, he still didn't get any response.

Later, I asked someone for the contact information of Ijichi Hoshika, and found out that Iura Hide had no plans to perform in other venues at the moment, so I had to give up the idea.

Think about it, if Iura Hide writes a song casually, the sales revenue of the digital single alone will be tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions. It is normal that he looks down on his performance fee of 100 million.

So, how many girls would like Jing Pu Xiu, a guy who has popularity, talent, handsomeness and money, and can be said to be the chosen one in the music industry?

No matter how you look at it, it seems unlikely that Tsukimi Eiko is here?
"But Yingzi-chan got a song written by him after all, so it's not completely impossible."

Thinking that Tsukimi Eiko would never give up easily and that he couldn't stop her even if he tried, Boss Kobayashi decided to support Tsukimi Eiko in "bravely pursuing her dream". He slapped the bar hard and said loudly, "Then Eiko-chan, don't come to work these two days!"

"what?"

Yue Jianyingzi was stunned for a moment and blinked her eyes.

She was thinking of quitting her waitressing job, concentrating on being a singer, and shortening and advancing her performance schedule.

But that was after the release of "Proclaiming Spring", when she became popular and her performance fee increased!
If her boss fired her now, she wouldn't even be able to afford the money to rent a recording studio, and would have to sell herself to Iura Hide in advance!
"Huh? This seems pretty good." Yuejian Yingzi's not-so-bright little brain immediately started to think of something wrong.

Until Boss Kobayashi continued: "You prepare well in the next two days. After the song is released, I will increase your performance fee to 10 yen per song!"

"Also, I'm helping you contact the boss of Fanxing and ask her to help arrange for you to perform at Fanxing as well."

"Given your popularity by then, and since this is Jingpu-san's song after all, I'm sure the other party won't refuse it."

"This way you can have more contact with Iura-san."

"It's a pity that Jingpu-san is still a high school student, only 17 years old, otherwise I would have given him a Black Gold VIP membership with free drinks for life."

Obviously, he had long forgotten what he had just said, "All men who hang out in nightclubs are bad people." At this moment, it was probably only the bartender who remembered it.

It was also at this time that Tsukimi Eiko realized that she had misunderstood Boss Kobayashi.

"thank you boss!"

Tsukimi Eiko first scratched her head embarrassedly, and then bowed 90 degrees to thank Boss Kobayashi for his support and care.

Especially when she was recommended to perform at Fanxing, she really couldn't refuse!
so.
"How about I just give you 20% off my performance fee in our store!"

"."

After a brief silence, both Boss Kobayashi and the bartender couldn't help laughing.

After serving drinks to table 7, Tsukimi Eiko took her full salary for the night, changed her clothes, and left the bar.

At 2:30 in the morning, most of the streets in Tokyo are no longer noisy as they were during the day.

Apart from the middle-aged office workers who were drunk and passed out on the roadside, turning over from time to time and uttering a few words of complaints and dissatisfaction with life, there were only a few stray cats wandering around the streets looking for food.

At this time of year in the past, the cold moonlight, the deep night sky, and the dim streets would always bring her chills as she walked home alone, and even a thick windbreaker could not stop her from feeling cold.

There is also the kind of loneliness and confusion that cannot be described in words, which will also erode her along with the cold darkness. Only by listening to Maria Diesel's songs can she feel a trace of warmth.

However, this time, listening to Jing Pu Xiu's singing coming from the headphones, recalling the scenes that happened today.

Especially when she 'accidentally' fell down and was hugged by Jingpu Xiu, and the moment when she 'impulsively' kissed Jingpu Xiu.

When she thought of this, it was as if a fire was burning in her heart.

Or to be more precise, it was as if a little sun that belonged only to her had settled in her heart, dispelling all the coldness and darkness for her and making her no longer lonely and confused.

"Ahhhh-"

"I must become Master Xiu's girlfriend~~~~~!"

On the originally quiet street, a girl's loud shouting suddenly rang out.

Then, without waiting for the two drunkards, three wild cats, and a group of crows to be disturbed, they looked over in the direction of the sound.

The girl was like a happy little deer, skipping away with a smile that couldn't be hidden on her face.

"Huh? Did another female fan rush onto the stage during Master Xiu's performance tonight?"

"This female fan this time. Wow! This female fan this time is also so beautiful!"

"Master Xiu was frightened and hid away?"

"Hey, could it be that I have contributed a lot to this?"

"But that girl is a bit embarrassed. Eh? Master Xiu took the initiative to help her out?"

"Oh my god! Master Xiu is so gentle and kind!"

"Huh? Is that girl the lead singer of some teenage idol band? That doesn't seem like a big deal, right?"

"She has already tweeted a response? Let me see."

"'I'm really sorry, it's my first time watching Mr. Xiu's live performance and I'm really excited. Mr. Xiu's live performance atmosphere is really great'. What the girl said is right! This is Mr. Xiu's live performance, if it were me, I would definitely be as excited as she is!"

"."

Tsukimi Eiko swore that she had originally planned to go to bed early and start adjusting her work and rest schedule after getting off work early tonight.

But when she got home, took a shower and lay down on the bed, she realized that she was really not sleepy at all!
So, she could only 'helplessly' pick up her phone and start watching videos, and then... until about five in the morning, when the sky was already getting light, she yawned and fell asleep.

At the same time, Kyoko Hori, who had gone to bed earlier than usual last night, woke up on her own without waiting for the set alarm to ring.

"Huh? It's only five o'clock? It seems a bit too early to get up."

Kyoko Hori picked up her cell phone, checked the time, and muttered something under her breath.

She didn't know if she had slept enough or if she was too excited to go to the park with Sota and Iura Hide to play football, but even if she lay down and took a nap, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

"Then get up and make breakfast! But what should I make for breakfast?"

Kyoko Hori slowly got out of bed and put on her clothes while thinking about this question.

"We agreed to leave at 8:30, so Xiu should be up around 7, right?"

"This time is enough to make the soup base for ramen, but unfortunately the noodles need to be cooked right now and I can't wait for Xiu to wake up."

"Then let's make a traditional Japanese breakfast!"

After a simple wash, Kyoko Hori came to the living room alone.

However, as it was still a little too early, she planned to clean the first floor first and then go to the kitchen to make breakfast.

"It must be very hard for Xiuhe, Xiaoai, and Motoko to clean such a big house?" This thought suddenly came to Hori Kyoko.

To be honest, although she was used to doing housework and did all the chores well, she herself did not like doing housework.

It's like she goes to school every day, and her academic performance is always second only to Sho Sengoku, but she herself doesn't like going to school.

Of course, not liking something doesn’t mean hating it, it just means being indifferent.

But this time, she suddenly enjoyed doing housework. She was so absorbed and relaxed that she even hummed "I Want to Tell You" unconsciously.

Although "Sold Out" has won the weekly championship for two weeks, and it is likely to win the weekly championship next week, achieving three consecutive championships.

Although she also likes "If You Can Shine" and "Youth Syndrome", for some reason, the song "I Really Want to Tell You" left the deepest impression in her heart.

As a result, when the alarm clock rang, reminding her that it was time to make breakfast, she turned around and found that Kiko had been standing at the stairs, grinning at her with her hands covering her mouth.

More importantly, Iura Hide is also there!
