My Romance Simulation with Them

Chapter Twenty-Nine. Is Nango Toki an angel?

"what..."

Seeing the slightly sad expression on Nango Toki's face, Goto Ichiri subconsciously reached out his hand: "Um... I'm sorry."

"Do not."

Nango Toki smiled and grasped Goto Ichiri's fair and delicate hand, looking at her earnestly: "I should be the one apologizing to you. It's all in the past, and you've heard this kind of news."

"Uh..."

Goto Ichiri's originally fair face quickly turned bright red in the next moment.

Her cherry-pink lips trembled. She wanted to pull her hand away from Nanxiang Shi's, but seeing his forced smile, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Nanxiang Sang... He must have a very good relationship with his friends.

[Ding~ You have gained 50 Heart Points from Ichiri Goto]

[Ding~ You have gained 50 Heart Points from Ichiri Goto]

[Ding~ You have gained 50 Heart Points from Ichiri Goto]

it is good!

With a sorrowful expression, Nango Toki listened to the beautiful sound in his ear and breathed a sigh of relief.

As the number one handsome boy in Tokyo, winning over a socially anxious girl like you is a piece of cake.

As for lying?

Nanxiang was not lying.

After all, don't things that happen in a simulation count?

But thinking that holding Goto Ichiri's hand for so long might seem like taking advantage of him, he slowly released his grip.

"Feel sorry."

Nanxiang said with satisfaction.

"Ah...it's okay."

Goto Ichiri withdrew her small hand, her face flushed red. She didn't dare to look up and could only stammer, "It would be great if I could help Nango-senpai."

"You've been a great help."

Nango smiled and then said, "Because Goto-san also plays guitar, just like her, that's why I took the initiative to talk to you yesterday. Now that I think about it, I was indeed a bit presumptuous. I'm sorry, Goto-san."

"Hey? Does Nanxiang's friend also play guitar?"

Goto Ichiri looked at Nango with surprise.

"Yes."

Nango sighed deeply: "But because she herself is unwilling to communicate with people, even though her guitar skills are very good, she rarely plays in front of other people."

"...is that so?"

The more Goto Ichiri listened, the more astonished he became.

If it weren't for the fact that Nanxiang Shi was another friend, she would have really thought that Nanxiang Shi was talking about herself.

"Ah."

Nanxiang nodded, as if lost in memories: "Because she didn't dare to perform in front of others, she secretly opened an account online. There, she had a group of like-minded friends. Looking back now, it was indeed a wonderful memory."

"..."

Goto Ichiri didn't know how to respond.

Because she never imagined that there could be others in the world who had the same experience as her.

Think about it carefully.

Didn't I also hesitate to perform in front of others at first, and only started my online activities as 'Guitar Hero' with my father's encouragement?

Thinking about it this way, when she looked at Nanxiang again, she felt a strange sense of closeness to her.

Senior Nango, to be able to become good friends with someone like that, he must be a very kind person, right?

Maybe even I...

Under Nango Toki's words, Goto Ichiri had clearly forgotten that in the beginning she was the one who had been unwilling to be alone with Nango Toki.

Looking at Nanxiang Shi's sadness and grief, she even felt a little sympathy for him.

"When she passed away, I kept thinking about whether I had fulfilled my responsibilities as a friend."

Strike while the iron is hot.

Nango knew that playing the victim had to be done right from the start, because it might not be as effective if the topic was brought up again later.

He gathered his emotions, just about to continue speaking—

"Yes, there definitely is!"

Well--?!

Nango looked at Goto Ichiri, who was speaking so loudly for the first time, with some surprise.

It should be noted that Goto Ichiri has always spoken in a soft voice, and if she speaks even slightly louder, she sounds like a frightened hamster.

Clearly, Goto Ichiri knew that he had been somewhat rude.

Her face flushed red, and she didn't dare look at Nanxiang. At the same time, she covered her mouth with her hand and whispered after a while:

"Definitely... That girl must be very happy to have a friend like Nango-senpai. Yes, that must be it."

When she tried her best to acknowledge Nanxiang, her voice was as clumsy as ever, but the certainty in her words was something Nanxiang couldn't ignore.

"......" Nanxiang time.

Looking at Goto Ichiri like this, Nango Toki fell silent.

Memories from the simulation flooded my mind at this moment.

He still remembered the girl he had tried so hard to make smile, and he comforted himself in the same way in the simulation.

Nanxiang shook his head.

As expected, whether in simulation or in reality, Goto Ichiri is still Goto Ichiri.

She would feel extremely disappointed because no one paid attention to her.

I also feel sad when my friends are sad.

Nanxiang sighed.

Perhaps I went a bit too far.

So he turned his head and said with a smile, "Sorry, that joke went too far."

"Why...?"

Goto Ichiri looked up in surprise.

"I don't have any friends like that. I was just joking."

Nango chuckled and reached out to pat Goto Ichiri's head, his voice tinged with affection: "Goto-kun is really easy to fool sometimes. You have to be careful, or you'll be easily deceived by bad men."

Feeling the touch of Nango Toki's hand coming from his head, Goto Ichiri surprisingly didn't feel shy.

Because she always felt that Nanxiang's words seemed to be completely genuine.

But she didn't know what to say at that moment, so she could only lower her head and give a soft "hmm".

The atmosphere seemed somewhat silent.

Fortunately, Nanxiang broke the awkward atmosphere in time.

"By the way, Goto-kun, your guitar."

Taking the guitar case out from the side, Nango Toki handed the guitar back to Goto Ichiri: "This guitar must be very important to you, Goto-kun, right? In that case, you should take good care of it and not just hand it over to a stranger like me like you did yesterday."

"Ah...yes."

Hearing Nango's encouraging voice, Goto Ichiri quickly responded, then cautiously asked, "Then what about my wedding expenses..."

"I have no interest in extorting money from others."

Nanxiang waved his hand.

Heavens, angels.

Goto Ichiri opened his mouth.

The extortion plot that I had imagined did not happen.

On the contrary, she had a long heart-to-heart talk with Nango Toki.

Is this man... an angel?

She couldn't help but think about it.

Nango looked at Goto Ichiri with a smile, then thought for a moment before speaking: "Of course, I would be very happy if you, Goto-kun, were willing to take the time to teach me to play the guitar."

"Ah... okay. If it's me, that's fine too."

When faced with Nango's request, Goto Ichiri realized for the first time that it wasn't so difficult to say yes to someone else's request.

Chapter 30. Are they pretty good too?

In fact, after receiving Goto Ichiri's agreement to teach guitar, Nango Toki did not choose to pursue it any further.

Today's progress is sufficient.

If we continue to push forward, it will inevitably be suspected that we are being too hasty.

As a Chinese citizen, Nanxiang Shi deeply understands the principle that haste makes waste and that you can't eat hot tofu if you're impatient.

While saying goodbye to the band members, Nango Toki obtained their LINE contact information.

But what Nango didn't expect was that the end of the band trio would happen.
