At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

"I've completely figured it out."

"..."

Hearing his self-deprecating words, Yuan Xiao was unsure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

However, one cannot resist a reward that is so close at hand.

She offered a few words of comfort, then reluctantly accepted the huge prize, which felt like a free gift.

-

……

Early the next morning.

Su Che gathered everyone together and went to the rehearsal room for a meeting.

The kitten wasn't a member of "Seven Colors," so it didn't go.

But her face was flushed from being petted by her cat last night, so she was in a good mood today and was willing to go to her team to meet her teammates.

This is extremely rare.

An Qing also won the SSR grand prize.

He told her while he was washing up that they should go somewhere together on the weekend.

When asked where he was going, he replied, "To continue the previous promise."

After a moment's thought, An Qing came to the conclusion that it was a place where two people could sleep undisturbed.

Now, she was also looking forward to the weekend.

Su Che's change made the three little ones in the family feel pretty good.

A miraculous transformation has begun.

12 o'clock noon.

Yu tide and Lin Xiao arrived at the agreed location, the "Small Garden" rehearsal room, ahead of time.

Because I had been rehearsing at Yuan Xiao's house for a long time, I hadn't been to such a formal rehearsal room in a long time, so I forgot to make an appointment and just came over.

When I arrived, I found that there was a team rehearsing inside, and they were almost finished and about to leave.

The owner walked over with a smile and said, "Ms. Yu, don't worry. They usually come around morning and leave around this time. I estimate it will be over in another 20 minutes, and you can't extend your subscription."

"it is good."

Yu tide and Lin Xiao waited outside. They glanced inside and saw the lead singer with his back to the door. His back looked familiar.

"...Isn't that so-and-so?"

Although the other musicians were all cold and aloof, the delicate Bai Chu was recognized immediately.

"Wow, senior, what are they doing here?"

“Their team members are all very strong, so it’s not surprising that they come to a professional rehearsal room to practice.”

Yu tide said calmly.

Originally, her relationship with Xiaoxiao had already reached a freezing point during the last hot spring event, and it was beyond repair.

Fortunately, Su Che had been missing for a long time, so it was impossible for everyone not to get together to figure out how to find him. As a result, the two were able to talk to each other again.

As for the resentment in her heart, it's not very important. After all, even without this incident, Xiao Xiao wasn't an honest child.

Both were clear-headed, each simply playing their part.

"I always thought 'Silver Travel' had its own rehearsal room, I didn't expect them to come to the Little Garden... and it seems like this isn't their first time."

Lin Xiao looked through the glass door and saw the musicians standing in the best positions, adjusting the equipment smoothly. She could deduce that they had probably been here before.

From the center of the view, Bai Chu slightly turned her head and flicked her hair, revealing her profile to the two women outside the door.

Her delicate face was now filled with a serious expression; she opened her small mouth, seemingly communicating with her teammates.

Guitarist Hiyori stood opposite her, nodding repeatedly with a respectful expression, without a trace of arrogance.

"Their team's core player is Chuchu, while our team's core player is our junior. But our junior... sigh."

Yu tide seemed to realize something and sighed softly.

Lin Xiao noticed his low spirits and said with a smile, "Isn't it good? At least it proves that what everyone wants is the best."

"I hope so."

Yu tide sighed helplessly, but took it as a way of comforting herself: "Having something is better than having nothing."

-

Fifteen minutes later, Su Che arrived with An Qing and Yuan Xiao.

Also arriving was Gu Zhi, who was yawning and looked like she hadn't woken up yet.

"Yo."

Seeing that Su Che was safe and sound, Gu Zhi greeted him, "Brother Che, it's been a long time! If Yuan Xiao hadn't told me you were alive, I would have thought you had been devoured by a demon."

Her flat tone was filled with resentment. Su Che smiled awkwardly, then put down his violin case and looked at Yu tide and Lin Xiao, who were completely silent in the lounge.

"I'm sorry to have worried everyone."

He started by saying, "I have indeed neglected communication with the team these days, which has caused the relationship between everyone to become a little strained, but it's okay, the team uniform issue has been resolved. After my unremitting efforts, I should be able to get everyone's custom-made uniforms by next week."

The effect is to use the fruits of their labor to cover up the fact that their bodies have been eaten, thus numbing the cats' attention.

Conditions for use: The cat is relatively stupid and not sensitive.

Clearly, Yu tide does not meet these prerequisites.

She said "Oh?" and then asked in return:

"Is this all the time and effort my junior has put in for me?"

"..."

Su Che's heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong.

"Your junior thinks it's worth it to ignore us for ten days, let someone have fun alone for ten days, and make her work for you, right?"

In just a few words, Yu tide deduced that the reason her junior had disappeared was because he "had gotten involved with a designer."

This was evident from his increasingly guilty expression.

he,

It's no longer pure.

Su Che knew that the questioning segment was inevitable, but he didn't expect it to happen in the rehearsal room.

Fortunately, the two little ones in the family had already received enough benefits, and now they actually stood up for them—

"Cheche has realized his mistake, and he has always been thinking about the team. Many things are unavoidable, so please don't be so aggressive, senior."

"Am I being aggressive?"

"Yes, don't you think so? He was clearly so tired and haggard, and there was absolutely no need for him to explain anything to everyone, but he was still afraid that we wouldn't feel at ease, so he reported his whereabouts in detail. What more do you want from him? Do you want to eat him?"

"..."

Yu tide fell silent.

At this moment, Yuan Xiao on the other side chimed in, "Hehe, I think A-Che did pretty well on this trip. We didn't lose out; he even brought us a lot of 'gifts' when he came back, so... I don't think we lost out this time."

Seeing that the two little ones were clearly brainwashed, Yu tide finally understood. She exchanged a glance with Lin Xiao and reached a consensus.

"When cats stop wanting from their owners, it's because they've been fed too much, to the point of vomiting."

In other words, only these stray cats outside the house weren't fed by him.

This is why the scales of rewards are so unevenly distributed, which is infuriating.

"So, Xiaoxiao, you also benefited, right?"

Gu Zhi suddenly interrupted and asked.

"I...I don't have any~"

"I think you're quite capable."

"Hehehehehe..."

The little bird couldn't keep a secret; just thinking about how he had chattered away that morning made her face flush red again.

Now, without anyone needing to say anything, Su Che's methods immediately went from being hidden to being revealed under Yuan Xiao's exposure, becoming an open secret that could no longer be concealed.

"I also want."

"I also."

"Brother Che, it's me."

Yu tide, Xiao Xiao, and Gu Zhi put down their equipment and approached.

In the waiting room, the five women surrounded Su Che in a 180-degree semi-circle formation against the wall.

Just then, the door to the rehearsal room was pushed open.

"...?!"

Bai Chu, the first one to come out, was startled to see so many beautiful women suddenly appearing outside the door.

Upon closer inspection, they discovered that the group of "Seven Colors" were all familiar faces.

She was just about to say hello,

She took two steps forward and then discovered that in the center of the group of women, a handsome man who had once embraced her was in a state of utter misery, seemingly imprisoned.

Her face stiffened slightly, and her mind raced—

So, this is how their team's dynamics have developed?

[Is it okay to not practice or rehearse in the rehearsal room first, but just play with the instrument until you're satisfied before moving on to the next step?]

No wonder I always felt that the "Seven Colors" team had a much stronger sense of team cohesion than ours... I finally understand why today...
