I have pure love with them

"I'll contact you again when I get home."

Arriving at the subway station, looking at Nagasaki Soyo in front of him, Izumi confessed to her softly.

Nagasaki Shoyo nodded subconsciously, but when she noticed the meaning of Izumi's words, it seemed that he would contact her after she returned home. When she looked up, she saw Izumi's back entering the station.

'Are you worried about me?'

Nagasaki Soyo was in a depressed mood, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"If... I also had a brother like him..."

……

After returning home, Izumi had just entered his room when Aine came to his door, hugged him from behind, and sniffed him all over.

"It doesn't smell like a woman."

"How about seeing if there's any woman's hair?"

Looking at Aine leaning on his back, Quan didn't know what happened to her. Suddenly, it seemed that she became concerned about his affairs.

'But there's nothing wrong with that.'

After hearing what Izumi said, Aine actually leaned over to Izumi's shoulder and looked at her carefully. After not noticing the girl's long hair, she felt relieved. However, she still kept her hands on Izumi's shoulders and stared at her profile.

"Have you been to Tokinoya's?"

"Hmm? There's nothing wrong with thinking so, but you feel lonely after staying out for a while?"

The person who rented the apartment was Tokinoya Satomi on paper, so there was indeed nothing wrong with being at Tokinoya’s house. He looked slightly sideways at his shoulder, looking at Aine who was lying on his shoulder, and asked with a smile.

"I just--"

The phone that Izumi had placed on the table suddenly made a buzzing sound, and the screen lit up. A message appeared on the screen, immediately attracting Aine's attention.

"…Whose news…eh?"

In a trance, Aine seemed to see Nagasaki Soyo’s Line avatar, and the accompanying content was——[I’m already home]

The huge amount of information contained in such a short message made Aine freeze in place.

"..."

Noticing Aine's strangeness, Izumi looked at the phone on his desk, picked it up without changing his expression, unlocked the screen, and opened the conversation interface with Nagasaki Souyo in front of Aine.

[I'm home too, good night]

"..."

[Good night]

Compared to the fact that Aine had to wait for several minutes to get a reply from Nagasaki Souyo, Izumi got the answer in just a moment, which made Aine's expression change for a while, and then she couldn't help but look at Izumi who she was leaning against.

"Are you guys...dating?"

Aine didn’t know what kind of mood she was in when she asked this question, but after asking this question, her mood became complicated.

When she thought about her current bandmates hiding the fact that they were dating her brother, she felt heartbroken... She couldn't help biting her lip due to the feeling of being left out and feeling uneasy and lonely.

"Didn't I tell you, my friend?"

"Friends of a close lover?"

"No, didn't I talk to you about this last time? She's just interested in Ms. Toyokawa's affairs. She doesn't have any feelings for me. Instead of worrying about her dating me, you should worry about whether she will be discouraged and quit the band after being completely rejected by Ms. Toyokawa."

The girl laid on his shoulder, and although it was a little heavy, she could still smell the bath fragrance emanating from Aine's body.

"Quit... the band? That shouldn't be the case... Deng and Li Xi are still in the band..."

Seeing that Izumi's expression was calm and that he certainly didn't look like he was having an affair with Nagasaki Soyo, Aine felt a little relieved. She was more concerned about what Izumi said, "Nagasaki Soyo would quit the band if he was rejected by Toyokawa Shoko."

But when Aine recalled her activities in the band, it seemed that Nagasaki Shoyo was not very enthusiastic about Shiina Tatsuki and Takamatsu Tomori.

"..."

While she remained silent, Aine also felt a little heavy in her heart.

What Quan said doesn't seem impossible.

There are some things that Aiyin cannot think of, but she just doesn't want to think about them. In fact, she has a vague idea about what happened to Nagasaki Souyo in her heart, but she just subconsciously avoids the truth.

Seeing that Aine didn't want to talk about it, Izumi didn't force her.

"Are you going to sleep at my place today?"

"...No, I went back to my room."

After learning some information about Nagasaki Souyo's 'true face' from Izumi, Aine felt complicated. She didn't feel like staying with Izumi any longer, so she slowly stood up and walked towards the door.

But when she reached the door, she stopped and looked back at Quan who was sitting in the house.

"You really don't have a relationship?"

"…So do you want to see me confess to her right now?"

Aiyin pouted and slowly left Quan's room and closed the door for him after leaving. Quan, who was left alone in the room, looked at his closed door and slowly sighed.

"I didn't stay."

If he stayed in his room, with Aine by his side at night, he would feel less lonely. Now that he was alone again, even though Aine was just next door, the feeling he gave would still be different.

Reaching out and gently rubbing his forehead, he opened the video website, put on his headphones, and watched Goto Ichiri's video, preparing to distract himself by playing the guitar.

However, when watching Goto Ichiri in the video, some strange images emerged in Izumi's mind. After watching for a while, Izumi opened the video website and watched some horror movies to calm himself down.

……

"The test result is that I lost to Akatsuki Kotori... Why did I have such a strange dream?"

In the early morning, as the sunlight poured into the house through the window, Quan suddenly opened his eyes, covered his forehead with his hand, and sat up from the bed with a confused look on his face.

Looking at the familiar room environment around him, he rubbed his temples, then took a deep breath to adjust his emotions.

“No, compared to the fact that I dreamed about losing to Ayatsuji Koto, just dreaming about her is already very strange. Why did her figure appear in my dream? In theory, shouldn’t it be Nagasaki Soyo, or Aine who appeared?”

In a dream last night, Izumi suddenly dreamed that the result of the exam that he and Ayatsuji Ci had agreed on was out, but the result was unexpected. Ayatsuji Ci slightly beat Izumi with a score of only 2 points, and won the agreed victory. As for the loser Izumi, Ayatsuji Ci made the following request -

Before the specific content appeared in the dream, Quan woke up from the dream because he realized that something was wrong.

"Is the dream a warning? I've been too concerned about the affairs of Soushi and Toyokawa Shoko recently, so... there's no reason for that."

Will you lose?

The probability of him losing to Akatsuki Ci is not as high as the possibility of Akatsuki Ci admitting defeat voluntarily.

Shaking his head, Quan stopped dwelling on the dream scene, and slowly got up from the bed, preparing to get up...

"Xiao Deng, I want to ask you something."

In the morning, Aiyin arrived at the school classroom. After greeting other classmates with a smile, she came to her seat and looked at Takamatsu Deng who was fiddling with stones alone in front of her. Aiyin was impressed by Takamatsu Deng's peculiar hobby. After thinking for a while, she reached out and gently poked Takamatsu Deng's shoulder.

Glancing over her shoulder, Takamatsu Deng felt a little nervous when she heard Aine calling her name. She glanced at the stone on her desk, hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at Aine who was sitting behind her.

"What...what happened?"

"Xiao Deng, you've known Shuang Shi earlier than I have, right? So, I'm very curious about what kind of person Shuang Shi is in your eyes, Xiao Deng. Well, I'm just a little curious. It's okay if you don't want to answer."

Aine didn't want to put too much pressure on Takamatsu Deng, so after asking Takamatsu Deng, she told him that he didn't have to answer the question.

After hearing what Aine said, Takamatsu Deng's eyes wandered for a moment.

Rather than whether to answer this question, what troubles Gao Songdeng is how to answer it.

"I don't know much about Shuangshi's affairs, but she has always taken good care of everyone in the band. Whenever there are disagreements, she is the one who smooths things over. So, she is an important partner and a gentle person."

Covering his left hand gently with his right hand, Takamatsu Deng looked at Aine nervously.

"Why...are you asking this suddenly?"

"It's just that after joining the band, I feel like I know too little about everyone, so I want to know more about everyone. Aren't we partners in a band?"

Hearing Aine's answer, Takamatsu Deng was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded happily.

"Ok!"

Looking at the happy Takamatsu Deng, Aine smiled but felt helpless in her heart.

"Xiao Deng... well, she is indeed a little naive, but there is nothing wrong with being a little naive, so let it be... Does she also think Shuangshi is a gentle person? Quitting the band... shouldn't happen, right?"

In fact, Aine wanted to ask Takamatsu Tomo some things about Toyokawa Shoko, but she was worried about causing stress to Takamatsu Tomo, so after some thought, she gave up asking about Toyokawa Shoko.

"If Shuangshi meets Fengchuan and is rejected, he may quit the band. Then just prevent them from meeting each other! If Shuangshi shows up at school again, I will deal with him on behalf of Fengchuan..."

Although it is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure, Aiyin can't think of any better solution at the moment.

"The band... I feel like there are so many things going on... Come to think of it, the band she's in isn't the same as mine, right?"

I haven't talked to Goto Ichiri much recently. Aine suddenly became curious about Goto Ichiri's band. She wanted to know how her life was like in the band. Maybe she could provide her with some advice...

"Didn't you contact Kita-san?"

"Ah... um."

In the library, Goto Ichiri, who was distracted, felt the fragrance emanating from Izumi beside him. After hearing what Izumi said, he recalled his words and hesitated to answer.

"I don't know Kita-san. If I suddenly go to look for her, won't I be considered a weirdo?"

In terms of socializing, Goto Ichiri, who had returned to normal when facing Izumi, still did not make much progress when facing other people. Letting her face Kita Ikuyo alone would be no less than letting Ayatsuji Koto defeat him.

229. Your speech is like a spoiled child

It is indeed unrealistic to let Goto Ichiri invite Kita Ikuyo alone, but if it was Izumi who invited Kita Ikuyo, things might become more complicated.

"At that time, Quan Jun sang very well, so why did he reject Hong Xia's invitation?"

As for how to invite Kita Ikuyo, Goto Ichiri saw that Izumi had no idea for the time being, so she put it aside for the time being and asked Izumi why she rejected Ijichi Kouka's invitation at that time. In her opinion, once Izumi accepted the invitation, she, who could play the guitar and sing, would definitely become an excellent lead singer.

"Compared to singing myself, I still prefer to listen to others singing. Besides, I also prefer to be freer."

Once you join a band, you have to participate in band activities every day and devote all your time and energy to one thing. For most people, this is a choice to realize the value of their youth, but Quan doesn't think he can maintain such enthusiasm.

——Unless it’s fun.

But it was clear that being in the 'ending band' wasn't going to be much fun.
