It's a romantic comedy for everyone, so why am I the only one single?

Then wouldn't he not have to worry about making too much noise in the middle of the night?

"It can't be later than 12 o'clock!"

"Yes, Okasan!"

Hideaki Iura chuckled, picked up two apples from the table, and quickly ran upstairs to the second floor.

"Boom boom boom——"

"Kiko, are you doing your homework?"

"what?"

"It's nothing, I just got you an apple."

A few seconds later, the old wooden door was pulled open to the side.

Then, like a Shiba Inu trying to please its owner, Iura Hide said, "Eating more fruit is good for your health," while stuffing an apple into Kiko's hand.

However, Ji Zi wasn't buying it. She first looked him over suspiciously, then put on a stern face and snorted coldly, "Speak, what is it now?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I'm recording a song later, and the sound might be a bit loud. Why don't you take a break first?"

"Do you think this is a football game? Halftime break?" Kiko couldn't help but mutter under her breath.

In the past, she wouldn't have bothered to complain; she would have slammed the door shut and gone back to doing her homework.

However, after resolving their differences last night, her relationship with Iura Hide has noticeably improved, and they have become much closer.

Or perhaps, she had always admired Iura Shu, and now she has finally bravely stopped hiding it.

Now, faced with Iura Hide's playful smile, she no longer remained silent and cold as before, but began to try to respond.

"Please, please, I'm really in a hurry."

"Why?" Kiko asked curiously.

"Because I already promised my friend."

"Is it a girl?"

Yes, that's right.

Iura Hide scratched his head, looking rather embarrassed.

The next second, Ji Zi's expression changed, her face turned cold, and she slammed the wooden door of the room shut with a bang.

"???"

"what's the situation?"

Iura Hide stared blankly at the tightly closed wooden door in front of him. After a brief silence, a thought suddenly popped into his head.

"Could it be that Kiko is actually a brother complex person?"

It has to be said that the old wooden door was really not soundproof at all.

Just as Kiko was about to return to her desk to continue her homework, she froze upon hearing Iura Hide's mutterings. Her previously composed face instantly turned bright red, burning as if it were about to catch fire.

"I'm not a brother-complex person at all!!!"

Jizi turned around, forcefully pulled open the wooden door, clenched her fists, and shouted loudly.

She usually speaks very softly, but this time her voice was so loud that even the old man downstairs, who had just finished his chores and picked up the remote to switch to an 8 pm soap opera, could hear her clearly.

And most importantly, looking at her flushed face and exasperated appearance, her explanation, which could barely be considered a defense, was hardly convincing!

""

"Yes, yes, how could Jiko be a brother complex person if she hates me so much~"

Iura Shu blinked, suppressing the urge to laugh out loud, and tried hard to control his expression to make himself look more sincere.

However, he is not a movie star, and Ji Zi is just bad at studying, not bad at eyesight. How could he not see that he was trying not to laugh?

Like a thermometer thrown into boiling water, Kiko's face turned bright red in an instant.

Then, like a kitten whose milk and dried fish had been stolen, it pounced on him in a fit of rage, baring its teeth and claws.

"Go to hell! You idiot onii-chan!"

Back in his room, Iura Hide was dumbfounded when he saw the newly set-up arrangement keyboard in front of him.

"Oh no, she's getting emotional!"

He's so happy right now, how can he still sing with such feeling!

"What's wrong? Weren't you supposed to be recording a song?"

A cold voice came from the side, with Kiko's arms crossed.

In her own words, since she couldn't do her homework anyway, she might as well come and listen.

However, Iura Hide knew that she was just being tsundere and wanted to be the first listener of his new song.

Of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to say it out loud this time, otherwise the shy and proud Kiko would probably blush again.

"nothing."

Iura Hide shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off these chaotic thoughts.

He is not a professional singer, so he follows his own emotions to make his singing powerful enough and to achieve a professional level. He is well aware of this, given his extensive knowledge of music theory.

"It looks like I can only record 'Kimi ni Todoke' (From Me to You)."

Although it feels a bit inappropriate to play "Kimi ni Todoke" for Sugaya Noha, there's too little time now, and it's too late to choose another song.

He chose "I Want to Tell You" not only because the song itself was catchy, but also because the accompaniment production and singing were relatively simple.

In addition, my mood was just right.

"Let's get started!"

Iura Hide set up the sheet music, cracked his knuckles, and began creating the accompaniment.

However, just as he himself realized, although his keyboard skills were slightly better than those of other instruments, he was still somewhat behind those professional keyboardists, and even more so than those top keyboardists.

How skilled can a top-tier keyboardist be?

Because keyboards can simulate the timbres of a large number of instruments, top keyboardists can even transform into a symphony orchestra by themselves using double keyboards, performing complex symphonies live.

A professional-level keyboardist can also simulate a regular band all by himself.

In the example, one person does all the work for the entire band, so in the story, it's just him and Rila Ikuta.

Rila Itada is in charge of singing, while he is in charge of writing lyrics, composing music, arranging, and playing instruments.

Iura Shu's skill level certainly didn't reach that level, so even though the accompaniment for "Kimi ni Todoke" was already very simple, he still chose to record them separately and then combine them at the end to avoid confusion.

"Let's start with the drumbeats."

As his fingertips danced lightly across the keyboard, Iura Shu became completely absorbed in the task.

Meanwhile, looking at his focused profile, the displeasure and disgust that she had forced onto her face had long since melted away like ice and snow.

"Good personality, popular with others,"

"She's just passable in appearance."

"Sports are all-around great, especially kendo and soccer, they're both so amazing."

"She can also write songs, sing, and play so many musical instruments."

"Even her academic performance has always been good."

"You idiot, Onii-chan! Don't you know this puts a lot of pressure on me?!"

It's like cherry blossoms quietly blooming in a tranquil shrine under the moonlight; they look absolutely adorable.

Chapter 28 Ji Zi's Enraged Moment

"It's done!"

"what?"

Kiko, who was struggling with her own thoughts, was startled by Iura Hide's sudden words. Feeling guilty, she quickly straightened her face and tried her best to force a disgusted expression back.

However, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is it already done?"

"Yes, we just need to synthesize the previous ones."

Iura Hide turned around and smiled at her, then pressed play again.

Although there are no vocals, only accompaniment, and only a few simple instruments, the arrangement is very straightforward and not complicated at all. However, the fusion of several instruments makes the originally monotonous timbre richer, which is completely different from the performance of a single instrument!

The light melody danced in her ears, bringing a picture of a clear early summer sky to her eyes. She couldn't help but take a deep breath, and her mood became relaxed and joyful.

"How about it?"

"Well, it's just so-so~"

Although she said that, the look of disgust on Jizi's face had long since disappeared.

Putting aside how well she sang, just the fact that she created such a beautiful accompaniment in such a short time is already incredibly impressive in her opinion!

She might have felt immense pressure in the past, but now, besides admiring Iura Hide even more, all she feels is pride and satisfaction.

After all, this is her onii-chan!

"As expected, Kiko is a tsundere!"

Iura Hideki suppressed a laugh, finding it amusing nonetheless.

When he first came into this world, he was depressed because everyone else was in pairs, while he only had one sister.

But now it seems that having a pretty, cute, and slightly arrogant younger sister isn't so bad.

"Hey! What kind of look is that?!"

Their eyes met, and Kiko seemed to see something in his eyes. She couldn't help but glare at him shyly and snorted, "The accompaniment is done now, aren't you going to start recording? I still have to go back and do my homework! Besides, didn't you say you were in a hurry?"

"Okay, okay~ We'll start recording now~"
