Aspiring to be a girl in a band

Xiangzi was the first to break the silence.

She immediately lowered her head.

"I'm...I'm sorry."

Xiangzi said, his face flushed.

She genuinely didn't understand why she had acted that way, but in that moment...

She simply couldn't stand watching Arakawa Kirika being all lovey-dovey with other people right in front of her.

That's why I thought I had to interrupt that scene.

Xiangzi looked panicked; even his pupils were trembling.

She was a little afraid that Arakawa Kirika would get angry, and at the same time, she was a little confused.

The way he threw that cushion... was ultimately to protect Chu Hua.

Or... she's jealous.

And what about Arakawa Kirika?

I was actually a little confused at that moment.

Because... this was the first time Xiangzi had done something that challenged her authority.

Logically speaking... I should be angry.

But... looking at Xiangzi's slightly reddened eyes, she really couldn't bring herself to be angry.

This novel feeling caused Arakawa Kirika to fall silent for a moment, until Shoko apologized, which brought her back to her senses.

Should I pretend to be angry? No... what's the point?

But... I have to say something.

Arakawa Kirika thought anxiously.

(The most beautiful chess umbrella neighbor) Shan's death finally she spoke.

"It seems... Xiangzi can't wait any longer, so... let's end the entertainment here."

Arakawa Kirika made up a random excuse and decided to pretend nothing had happened. She then casually tossed the pillow that had hit her chest aside.

Anyway... it didn't hurt at all, so I'll forgive her.

"Entertainment programs..."

Xiangzi blinked in the distance. (From Qun Wu Yi VIII, "Dad, Neighbor, Abandoned, Stay at the Hospital")

It seems she never expected that Arakawa Kirika would not only not be angry, but would also... provide her with an excuse.

……

"I happen to have a song here, and I'd like to hear Miss Chuhua sing it."

Arakawa Kirika casually remarked, then pulled out a sheet of music from the side and handed it to Hatsuka.

……

When Arakawa Kirika said "There is a song," Shoko already realized something was wrong.

really.

After seeing the three large characters "Spring Shadow", Chu Hua immediately looked at Xiangzi with a panicked expression.

How could she not know Xiangzi's feelings for this song?

...I never expected that this Miss Wuhua would actually ask me to sing "Spring Shadows" in front of Xiangzi...

But this is the only thing... she can't do.

"Could you... change the song? This one isn't working..."

Chu Hua hurriedly looked at Arakawa Kirika and pleaded in a very humble tone.

"No... I want to hear this today."

This time, Arakawa Kirika's tone was very firm, and she continued to look at Shoko with that provocative gaze.

Xiangzi's face was now gloomy, and he looked at Arakawa Kirika with a sad expression.

She really didn't expect... Arakawa Kirika would pull something like this.

All I did was talk back to her once.

He still holds a grudge now, and... he even used her most cherished possession to bully her.

He's a real piece of scum.

But... do you think I'll admit defeat just because of this?

I did say... "The weak me is already dead."

I will not... run away like I did that day.

then.

Just as Hatsuka was about to continue pleading with Arakawa Kirika to change her mind, she discovered...

Xiangzi had somehow walked up to him.

Xiangzi grabbed Chuhua's shoulder and said.

"No need to beg her."

Xiangzi met Arakawa Kirika's eyes head-on.

This surprised Arakawa Kirika somewhat, but it only made her more interested.

The person in front of her... was indeed her treasure, always bringing her new surprises.

"Xiangzi?"

Chu Hua raised her head upon hearing this, but she didn't quite understand what Xiangzi meant.

Xiangzi first gave Chuhua a reassuring look, then continued to look at Arakawa Kirika.

"She... just wants to hear 'Spring Shadow'... Chu Hua, you sing, I'll... accompany you."

Clearly, Xiangzi's true feelings were far from as calm as they appeared, hence the slight tremor in his voice.

Chu Hua naturally noticed this, so she looked at Xiangzi with great concern.

But Xiangzi just shook his head and sat down at the piano.

"I'll count to three, then Chu Hua, you can start. Consider it practice for the new band."

Xiangzi gave Chuhua a final smile, then took a deep breath and got into performance mode.

……

Arakawa Kirika did not intervene.

He simply sat back down on the sofa quietly.

Xiangzi surprised her once again today.

She really... really liked this unyielding girl.

...The song ended.

Before Arakawa Kirika could speak, Shoko took the initiative to walk up to her.

The girl named Toyokawa Shoko placed her hands on Arakawa Kirika's knees and looked directly into her eyes.

"How is it? Are you satisfied now?"

"Hmph...boring."

Arakawa Kirika turned her head away.

But Xiangzi had no intention of letting her off so easily.

She wasn't going to let such a malicious scumbag get away with it.

So Xiangzi continued.

"I remember some bad guy saying he hated lying the most, could it be... that was a lie?"

Arakawa Kirika naturally knew that the "bad guy" Shoko was referring to was herself.

Just a mere Xiangzi.

How dare a maid defy her master and bare her teeth in defiance?

They really need to be disciplined.

But... despite what she thought in her heart, Arakawa Kirika only said...

"That's certainly not fake... I never lie."

Little did she know that this was exactly what Xiangzi was waiting for.

"Alright... then please, Ms. Arakawa Kirika, who can't lie, give us your feedback on our performance. Remember... you can't lie."

The reason he dared to say that was because Xiangzi had absolute confidence in his playing and Chuhua's singing.

She was confident that even this heartless scumbag would be moved by her music.

As expected... she finally saw it, and Arakawa Kirika showed a struggling expression.

This is the first time.

Arakawa Kirika hesitated for a long time before reluctantly speaking.

"One hundred points...are you satisfied?"

"Hmm... I'm extremely satisfied."

Having received Arakawa Kirika's praise, Shoko returned to Hatsuka's side with a victorious smile.

...Huh?

At this point, Chu Hua was a little confused.
