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

"I see..."

Su Che nodded slightly.

Knowing that Monday is a school day and that she would be going to school with Miya, she had to go home on Sunday night.

"However, her team has been incredibly busy lately. It looks like they're planning something big."

"Perhaps."

An Qing didn't turn around, but continued painting.

Bai Chu silently observed the relationship between her and Su Che, and suddenly had the illusion that they had grown distant from each other.

This seems a little different from the last time I saw it.

An Qing was once Su Che's most beloved house cat, able to get everything with just a meow, making people envious.

Now, although they still live in the master bedroom, they always feel... that the relationship between the two of them is more like that of an old married couple who have been together for many years.

There wasn't even a hint of camaraderie between teammates...

Is that correct?

"Well... then I won't stand on ceremony. May I use your bathroom to wash up first?"

Bai Chu didn't think too much about it, put down her bag, and walked over.

"of course can."

Su Che pointed to the wardrobe, indicating that there were spare pajamas inside.

"it is good."

The girl nodded and, following the directions, opened a wooden door to the wardrobe...

then,

Seeing the so-called "pajamas" inside,

It is a beautiful spare maid outfit (cool and refreshing style) uniform.

Spaghetti strap style, lace trim, black and white color scheme, complete with ribbon.

"..."

She stood motionless with her back to Su Che.

"What's wrong? Bai Chu, don't you like these pajamas? Ah... if it's really not possible, I can ask the maid to borrow some for you."

Su Che looked at her back and said somewhat nervously.

"Not really."

She shook her head meaningfully, then suddenly bared her fangs:

"I was thinking, since your house is so big now, with so many rooms, could I... give up my own place next month and move in with you?"

"...?"

Bai Chu: "What I mean is, in this way, you and An Qing might be one step closer to winning the Mosse Grand Prix, right? What do you think?"

……

……

Chapter 258 Don't make your sister Ari laugh.

About the house.

Su Che never imagined that UU's house, with an interior area of ​​several hundred square meters, would one day experience a shortage of rooms...

Clearly, Bai Chu's meaning was very straightforward—

If you let her stay, she'll willingly become your inside man.

Such a deal was incredibly tempting for Su Che, who was obsessed with winning the championship, and even An Qing found this concession acceptable.

If Cheche can make it to the end, then our team won't disband, I won't let him down, and I'll always stay by his side.

This deal is a good deal no matter how you look at it.

As for the maid and the overnight stay, the house cat had long since let it go.

I can't stop Cheche from attracting unwanted attention from outsiders; after all, he's even more problematic and twisted than I am. How could I possibly guard against those intrusive feelings?

【so……】

Let's set it up.

This is what the house cat thinks.

She has changed her mindset and is no longer fixated on immediate gains and losses.

To be honest, An Qing had no way of dealing with Su Che's views on love.

Because Su Che himself doesn't have any views on love.

From a cat's perspective, Su Che has always been used to being alone, and in most cases, the cats around him have taken advantage of his tendency to take responsibility for various things, including himself.

It seems that something is more important to him than these complex emotions.

Just because he owns a cat doesn't mean that cats are everything to him. Just because he likes cats doesn't mean that cats can do whatever they want because of his liking for them.

It seems that Su Che stopped believing in true emotions at some point in time.

An Qing deduced that this point in time occurred before her arrival.

-

"Thank you for your hard work. I'm very happy."

Three o'clock in the morning.

Bai Chu curled up in her favorite scent, falling asleep with a sense of immense security, like a pet.

Su Che stared blankly at the ceiling, the dim light of the night making him lost in thought.

Bai Chu was on her left and An Qing was on her right. Their exhausted bodies couldn't keep their restless nerves at rest, and the emptiness after such a major event was like a bottomless pit, sucking in all their energy.

Perhaps to outsiders, a decadent life seems unattainable, but the numb Su Che feels that he is beyond redemption and can never return to the state he was in before meeting An Qing, when he was able to take control of his own life.

"We'll call it a day after this job."

Thinking to himself, "I'll stop after I've taught my father a lesson."

He sadly muttered to himself.

"We also need to find out about Mom's company."

"She's hiding too many things from me."

"I don't like being kept in the dark."

"They never told me anything when I was little."

"They controlled me from a young age."

"I don't like this feeling."

"The feeling of not being yourself."

……

-

Time flies by.

Sunday, Flower Room Live.

In the basement, the members of the "Hana-shou" band gathered together, a rare occurrence.

Outside the venue, the staff set up the equipment, and the manager, Ms. Hayasaka, arrived on time with the documents, intending to record all the new material and submit it on this important day.

Good morning, children.

At 4:30 a.m., she waved and greeted the drowsy musicians.

"That's quite early."

Yi Xiang yawned as he sat on a drum stool, adjusting the sampling equipment.

"Nanako is here, but where is she?"

UU: "I went outside to buy KFC because Miya said she was hungry."

"Okay, sure."

Ms. Hayasaka nodded slightly and turned her gaze to Ari, who had just finished her makeup and hair and was standing beautifully in front of the microphone stand.

“Ari, you didn’t seem to be very active in rehearsals recently. I checked your attendance record and you missed two sessions.”

"Ah."

"As the lead singer, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"."

Ari lowered her head, her long hair still covering her face, looking like a goddess under the spotlight.

But unlike before, her cool aura was inexplicably tinged with a hint of languor and wickedness.

Like...

After some development, it gradually changed, losing its former purity and awe-inspiring sanctity.

Hayasaka was a top talent scout for "Lingyun Media" in her early years, and her keen sense of talent was unmatched.

She could tell that Ari seemed to have changed.

The exact changes cannot be determined based on appearance alone. Therefore, she needs further confirmation.

"No."

At that moment, Ari responded in a calm and emotionless voice.

Although she wasn't impatient, it was clear that her focus wasn't on the team.
