After dropping out of school, I chose to join a girls' band.

She turned her head slightly and saw Shiina Riki carefully climbing out of the covers by the bed, moving gently as if afraid of waking the others.

"It's so late... Could it really be that he got up in the middle of the night to stay up all night writing sheet music?" Peach couldn't help but wonder.

Her movements were practiced, clearly indicating that this wasn't the first time she had done this.

Lixi gently picked up the tablet from the table, then tiptoed to the door of the room, her movements so careful that she made almost no sound.

Momoko Kurosawa sighed silently to herself. "What a workaholic, working so late at night..." she thought helplessly, secretly admiring Ritsuki's diligence.

She adjusted her sleeping position, intending to stop thinking about these trivial matters, after all, she also needed to rest.

"Never mind that, I need to go to sleep early," Peach said to herself in her heart, closing her eyes again and trying to drift off to sleep.

However, to her surprise, not long after, she heard faint noises coming from the room again.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

Peach frowned slightly, and another question arose in her mind.

"Who is it again?" She couldn't help but open her eyes again, cautiously looking around.

She saw another figure quietly getting out of bed in the room.

The slender figure appeared somewhat blurry in the darkness, but Peach recognized it at a glance.

It's Xiaoyue.

"Moon? What is she up to now?" A hint of doubt flashed through Peach's mind. She quietly turned slightly to the side and continued to observe Moon's movements.

Yue's movements were also very light, as if she were afraid of waking others.

After lingering in the room for a while, seemingly unable to find what she was looking for, she finally turned and walked towards the door, gently pulled the doorknob, and quietly walked out.

"She went out too..." Peach watched Yue's figure disappear outside the door.

"Never mind... I'll stop thinking about it and go to sleep."

Momoko Kurosawa closed her eyes again, trying to drift off to sleep, but the faint unease in her heart just wouldn't go away.

"Could she... be going to find Lixi?" This thought suddenly popped into her mind, causing her to open her eyes.

Peach knew that Lixi got up in the middle of the night mostly to continue working, after all, she was always the kind of person who would give everything for the progress of the band.

As for Yue, she looked around for a while, so she probably wasn't going to the toilet. As for the claim that she went out for a walk at night, that's even less believable.

Based on her understanding of Yue, Yue was definitely not the kind of person who would get up for a walk in the middle of the night, especially since it was already late at night, cold and dark outside, and the sea breeze would make one feel a bone-chilling cold.

She pondered silently, various guesses beginning to surface in her mind.

The image of the two meeting on the balcony late at night suddenly flashed into her mind—Yue and Lixi sitting side by side, moonlight shining on them, a gentle breeze caressing their hair, the atmosphere tranquil and romantic.

"No, no, no... Xiaoyue and Lixi shouldn't be the kind of people who would be so romantic." Taozi shook her head violently, trying to shake off all the messy thoughts in her head.

However, Peach couldn't help but recall Yue's actions from earlier.

"Could they really be having a secret rendezvous late at night...?"

The thought had barely crossed her mind when she was startled. She shook her head, trying to banish the absurd idea from her mind, but the possibility sprouted rapidly in her heart like a seed.

"Impossible..." She tried to suppress the thought with reason, but Yue's cautious demeanor just now, her carefulness and seemingly nervous expression made her suspicious.

"No, no, no... This is too melodramatic!" Peach couldn't help but say to herself, but the more she thought about it, the clearer the possibility became.

She bit her lip tightly, a struggle raging within her. "Maybe they really were just talking about work..."

She tried to convince herself of this, but then she remembered that Yue had always been a health-conscious person, especially when it came to sleep and rest. She always maintained a regular schedule and would never easily stay up late to work.

"No... Yue still cares a lot about her physical health. She won't do things like working late into the night unless it's absolutely necessary." This thought swirled in her mind, making her unease even stronger.

"Maybe... I should go take a look?" The thought flashed through her mind and almost made her get up immediately, but reason once again suppressed her impulse.

Putting aside what I would say if I went out and saw the two of them together, the fact that I was out looking for them late at night instead of sleeping is already suspicious enough.

"What can two career-oriented women talk about? It's just the same old stuff: bands, competitions, future plans, and so on."

Peach tried to calm herself down with reason, telling herself that this was just a normal discussion and there was no need to make a fuss.

Just as Miss Peach was struggling with her decision, the sound of the door being opened rang out again. Feeling quite tormented, she immediately turned around and peeked out.

Climax Stage: Chapter 57 The Sleepy One and the Noisy Morning

Yue looked helplessly at the still-sleeping Momoko Kurosawa and sighed softly.

She bent down, stretched out her finger, and gently nudged Peach's shoulder. "Hey, get up now."

Peach frowned slightly in her sleep, as if she heard the moon's voice, but she just turned over and buried her head in the blanket, seemingly not planning to get up.

Yue looked at this scene helplessly, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, Shengxiang students should get up at around 6 a.m. every day for morning exercises, and long-term training has long since ingrained a fixed biological clock in them.

There's no reason for me to be still in bed at almost ten o'clock.

Looking at Momoko Kurosawa, who was still lying in bed, Yue gently nudged her again, "Momoko Kurosawa, get up."

She raised her voice slightly, hoping to wake Peach from her dream.

Peach's body finally reacted slightly, and she moved a little. Then, half of her face emerged from under the covers, her eyes still tightly closed, as if she was unwilling to leave the warm bed.

She mumbled something indistinctly, but her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.

Yue sighed softly, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes. She knew that Taozi was the kind of person who, once asleep, was very difficult to wake up.

In order to bring her to her senses completely, Yue decided to add some more "bargaining chips".

"If you don't get up now, you won't get breakfast today," she said half-jokingly, with a hint of relaxed threat in her tone.

Peach frowned slightly, seemingly reacting, but still not fully awake.

Her fingers twitched outside the blanket, then withdrew slightly as if in protest.

Yue couldn't help but smile as she watched this scene.

"It's called breakfast, but it's actually more like lunch by now, isn't it?" Yue muttered to herself, her gaze falling once again on Taozi's half-asleep face.

Peach seemed to have heard Yue's murmur, and her lips twitched slightly, finally showing some signs of waking up.

Peach slightly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with a hint of confusion and drowsiness, as if she hadn't fully emerged from her sleep.

Her hair was a little messy, with a few strands loosely sticking to her forehead, making her look particularly languid.

She mumbled softly, "Hmm...so sleepy..." Her voice was heavy with sleepiness, as if she might fall asleep again at any moment.

Her eyelids felt incredibly heavy; although she managed to keep them open for a moment, they quickly closed again, showing no intention of getting out of bed.

Peach gently turned over and wrapped herself in the blanket, as if trying to isolate herself from the outside world.

Peach slightly opened one eye, her gaze filled with deep weariness, appearing exceptionally languid in her half-open, half-closed state. A hint of helplessness and coquettishness lingered in her eyes, as if to say, "Don't wake me so early."

Seeing Taozi's sleepy appearance, Yue couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you go to bed early yesterday? Why are you still so sleepy?"

Half-asleep, Peach heard Yue's question and couldn't help but silently think to herself, "Who do you think is to blame...?"

Yesterday, she saw Yue and Lixi walking back hand in hand, which caused tons of trauma to her "fragile" heart.

She barely managed to close her eyes as dawn approached, resulting in only a few hours of sleep. Now, being woken up by the moon, she naturally felt extremely tired.

She slowly stretched out a hand, shook it slightly, and her soft voice came from under the covers, as if she hadn't fully woken up yet, "Give me five more..."

Yue raised an eyebrow and asked, "Five minutes? If it's five minutes, I can wait for you."

Peach paused for a moment, as if still struggling with drowsiness, her voice muffled, as if she might fall asleep again at any moment, "No... it's five hours..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Peach gently turned over again, her entire body once again completely buried in the blankets, and she drifted off to sleep.

Yue was speechless for a moment, her lips twitched slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes.

She shook her head slightly, her voice filled with a helpless resolve, "Five hours! How is that possible? Get up now, Momoko Kurosawa!"

Faced with Yue's words, Peach simply pulled the blanket up to cover her ears and said nothing more.

Seeing that Peach was completely unwilling to get out of bed, she decided not to soften her heart any longer.

Yue decisively reached out, and the blanket was suddenly pulled off, revealing Taozi's figure curled up under the blanket.

She was wearing a soft pink pajama set with a cute peach pattern printed on it. The pajama set was made of a very comfortable material that gently clung to her skin.

The pink background complements the delicate peach patterns, adding a touch of playfulness and cuteness to her overall appearance.

As Peach breathed softly, the neckline of her pajamas loosened slightly, revealing her fair collarbone. That collarbone moved with the rise and fall of her breath, appearing exceptionally graceful.

Yue's gaze lingered on the exposed skin for a moment, and her heart began to beat faster.

Peach's pajamas rode up slightly as she turned over, revealing her slender calves.

Her legs, having just been exposed to the cold air from the warm bed, had a faint blush on their skin, making them appear exceptionally delicate.

This scene made Yue feel flustered. Her eyes widened and her cheeks instantly flushed.

Her gaze lingered on Peach for a moment, then she realized she might have been impolite and immediately turned her head away, trying to hide her embarrassment.

Peach shifted slightly, feeling the warmth of the blanket suddenly disappear, and opened her eyes slightly.

Her eyes still held a hint of drowsiness, but seeing Yue's embarrassed expression, a mischievous smile curled at the corners of her lips. She stretched lazily, her voice tinged with teasing, "What's wrong, Yue? Do you like my pajamas?"

Upon hearing this, Yue became even more embarrassed, her blush deepening. She quickly looked away, standing there helplessly, completely unsure how to respond.

Yue coughed lightly to cover her nervousness: "Quick...quickly get your clothes ready! I...I'll go downstairs first."

After saying that, Yue seemed to be startled and quickly turned around and ran out of the room, her movements as swift as if she were fleeing the "crime scene".

Her figure disappeared through the doorway, leaving Peach alone on the bed, who couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Didn't you say... you weren't gay?" Momo couldn't help but chuckle at Yue's flustered appearance, and her drowsiness dissipated considerably.

She slowly sat up, straightened her slightly disheveled pajamas, a smile still on her lips, and seemed exceptionally relaxed.

Climax Stage: Chapter Fifty-Eight - Goodbye?

Peach rubbed her eyes, yawned, and lazily walked down the stairs.

Her steps were a little unsteady, clearly she hadn't fully recovered from the drowsiness she had just experienced.

When she finally reached the table, everyone had already finished their breakfast, leaving only a few crumbs on the table.
