Gravity Girl Shining

“Both sides are important, okay!”

Shiina Riki's complaints followed immediately, and she took out her cell phone and poked the screen.

"Now! Immediately! Create a study group! It would be stupid if Ave Mujica couldn't function because you guys failed a class and needed tutoring!"

Faced with Shiina Riki's complaints, Ave Mujica's two aces just embarrassedly pressed the button to join the group chat.

I hope the three of them will have good luck in their future exams.

Chapter 150: Teachings from my boyfriend.

"So, are your three grades really that bad?"

In Shiina Riki's room, after listening to her great achievements at school this afternoon, Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but raise her hand to ask a question.

Faced with this sharp question, Mr. Shiina Riki suddenly couldn't hold it in anymore and said with his eyes wide open.

"Why do you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air..."

"What do you mean innocent? From the context of your story, I naturally think there's something wrong with your grades. After all, none of you three seem to be able to take classes seriously."

Uehara Hibiki's answer was heartbreaking. Shiina Riki asked herself, she had indeed done similar things, sleeping in class while working hard on composing... She even asked for leave from school. Soon, Shiina Riki's face turned red and she began to argue hard.

"Asking for leave doesn't count as skipping class... Asking for leave!... Although I slept during class, I borrowed Hailing's notes at the time, so I didn't miss any of the knowledge."

Then came a series of difficult-to-understand words, like "I have my own way of studying" and "cram at the last minute", which made Uehara Hibiki burst into laughter, and the bedroom was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

"No, Lixi, don't forget our agreement. If you fail the exam, kissing is prohibited."

"Who wants to kiss you..."

Shiina Riki turned his head away, and finally realized that his words had the ambiguous meaning of admitting defeat, so he added another sentence.

"Even without this agreement, I wouldn't have failed."

Upon hearing this, Uehara Hibiki immediately put down the notebook with the lyrics written in it, walked up to Shiina Riki, put his right hand on her chin, lifted it slightly, and their lips were almost touching.

"Lixi, do you really not want a kiss?"

The tsundere girl's refusal was blocked before she could even utter it.

When her mouth was free again, she couldn't utter those arrogant words anymore.

after all……

Kissing is so comfortable! I want to kiss every day!

So, unable to refute, Shiina Riki could only lie in Uehara Hibiki's arms, letting out an embarrassed "humph", which was considered another admission of defeat.

"Okay, Lixi, all kidding aside, how are the results for the three of you?"

Faced with Uehara Hibiki's slightly serious question, Shiina Riki finally told the truth.

"Honestly, it's not great, but it's not bad either. I've always been in the upper middle of the class, but I've been busy composing music for the past two months, and I've been a bit sleepy in class, so my grades have slipped recently. Hailing is about the same as I was before, and as for Chuhua... she's a little behind."

There's no doubt that whether it's Shiina Ritsuki, Yawata Kairin, or Sankaku Hatsuka, all three are, in some sense, geniuses beyond the average person. With complete class notes, even if they don't attend the entire lecture, they can still learn a good deal by studying on their own. However, these three people have one thing in common: they don't take learning seriously.

Mikado Hatsuka had already started her idol career. Shiina Tatsuki and Yawata Kairin had also long since decided to become professional musicians. For ordinary high school students, studying is about getting into a good university and securing a respectable job.

However, these three had already established their future careers, so they viewed school courses as unnecessary; as long as they could get by, they were fine. Their frequent distractions and requests for leave in class were also due to this, stemming from a lack of emphasis on learning, not a sense of inability to learn.

Faced with this attitude, Uehara Hibiki's response was simple: his brain would explode!

"pain!"

Shiina Riki immediately covered her forehead with her hands and glared at Uehara Hibiki angrily. But then a flicker of relief flashed across her eyes, and her shoulders relaxed.

"Okay, I know I was wrong."

Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but nod his head. To put it bluntly, it was a matter of attitude.

"So, do you need my help? I'm pretty good at teaching."

Uehara Hibiki's voice was low and ambiguous, with a hint of teasing. His eyes were staring straight at Shiina Riki, as if he was expecting her reaction.

Sure enough, Shiina Riki's cheeks turned red instantly, and he glared at Uehara Hibiki in embarrassment.

"No need! We can handle it ourselves! Just passing the exam won't be a problem for us."

Uehara Hibiki chuckled, with a hint of pampering in his tone.

"Okay, then I won't force you. However, a mere passing grade isn't enough. I'll let you off for this final exam. I'll gradually raise your exam standards in the future. After all, if you want to be a professional musician, a music college is a good choice instead of just applying to a regular university. Besides, even if you only have one degree, learning more knowledge won't hurt your life."

Listening to Uehara Hibiki's gentle exhortation, Shiina Riki felt a warm current in her heart. She knew that Uehara Hibiki was concerned about her, and she had to admit that what Uehara Hibiki said made sense.

"Okay, I got it. I will work harder next time."

"Well, I believe you. Li Xi always keeps his word when it comes to his efforts, but don't work too hard. Just like composing music, you need to balance work and rest."

Although she knew Uehara Hibiki had good intentions, she still felt uncomfortable being pampered like a baby. Biting her lip, she quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, Hibiki, how are the other band members doing academically? Especially Hanaoka, they've always been a preparatory school that focuses on grades, and they're much stricter than Hanasakigawa in that regard."

Although he was asking everyone, Uehara Hibiki was well aware that Shiina Riki was still worried about Deng's academic performance. After all, besides Takamatsu Deng, Riki's other friends in Haneda were the talented boy Uehara Hibiki, the talented girl Toyokawa Shoko, and Chihaya Aine, who had recently been showing off her quiz scores every day in the band discussion group.

The only one we need to worry about is Takamatsu Deng.

Looking at Uehara Hibiki's meaningful gaze, Shiina Riki also blushed. After all, she knew that her map of Yan State was a bit short and could not hide her true thoughts at all.

So, Uehara Hibiki smiled and touched her head as a comfort.

"Don't worry. Although Deng is a little weak in some subjects, she has three masters at school, me, Aine, and Xiangzi, teaching her. Her grades will definitely be fine."

"That's good."

"No, Riki, are you letting your guard down so quickly? You didn't even ask about Sushi and Lenai?"

In the face of Uehara Hibiki's complaints, Shiina Riki didn't care.

"I know Su Shi, it's okay. She's always been a model student with excellent academic performance and good conduct in school."

As veterans of Crychic, Shiina Tatsuki and Nagasaki Motoyo were quite familiar with each other. Although the two didn't speak much during Crychic's brief one-month promotion period, Nagasaki Motoyo had been in frequent contact with Shiina Tatsuki during the year after Crychic temporarily disbanded.

Although looking back now, Su Shi had some bad intentions at that time, but because of the interaction that year, the tacit understanding and understanding between the two of them rose to more than one level.

"That guy has always loved taking care of others, even in school. Besides studying himself, he also loves teaching others, just like another teacher."

However, Uehara Hibiki herself offered a more gloomy perspective on Nagasaki Suyo's grades. Born into a humble "nouveau riche," she wasn't considered a true insider in the eyes of established young ladies. To gain a foothold in a prestigious school like Tsuki no Mori, she employed a mask of disguise and even academic performance as a means of embellishing her identity. While utilitarian, this was the defining campus drama of Tsuki no Mori.

Uehara Hibiki chuckled, then quickly changed the subject before she could react.

"Okay, let's skip Sushi's question. How is Lenai doing in school? You go to the same school as her, so you should know her better."

Faced with this problem that was bound to come sooner or later, Shiina Riki just sighed with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Lena, she's like a cat, appearing and disappearing like a ghost. I can't find her anywhere in school. Even though she joined the craft club, her club activities are just like when she first started in the band: she's always late or sometimes doesn't show up at all. Even when she's in the craft club, she just sleeps in the club room or gets fed snacks by others. If you ask her where she's been, everyone just shakes their head. She's a total cat!"

Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It does sound very 'Lenay', very much like that."

There was a hint of complaint in Shiina Riki's voice, but more of it was helplessness towards Kaname Rakuna's elusiveness.

"I've asked other people, but no one knows where she is either. But from what I've heard from others, I know what Lenai said before was right. Although she doesn't attend classes much, her test scores have always been good. It's really enviable."

"envious?"

Uehara Hibiki took over the conversation with a smile, a hint of appreciation in his tone.

"Lena is indeed a genius, but her learning method may be different from ours, so there is no need to envy her."

Then, Uehara Hibiki suddenly thought of something, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.

"By the way, Su Shi mentioned before that Mu's grades in the class have always been very stable and trustworthy. So it seems that MyGo and AveMujica's learning problems are concentrated on the trio of you, Hailing, and Chuhua."

There was a hint of teasing in his voice and a sly glint in his eyes, as if he was deliberately trying to tease her.

Shiina Riki was stunned for a moment, then bit his lip, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"Higashi, don't say that. Even though our grades aren't top-notch, we're working hard, so we'll be fine!"

And if you count the others...

"Where's the drummer? Where's Ave Mujica's drummer? Hibiki, you never mentioned her."

Faced with Shiina Riki's questioning, Uehara Hibiki spread his hands helplessly.

"Well, it's not that I'm keeping it a secret for her, it's just that her school is on a different track from ours."

Miao Meng didn't need to worry about the final exams. After all, although she was also in the first year of high school, she was attending the Metropolitan Art Academy High School. Unlike ordinary high schools, it was a special school for art exams.

Despite Uehara Hibiki's best attempts at hinting, Shiina Riki still hadn't figured out the drummer's true identity. Perhaps it was because Japanese private schools have so many strange curriculums, and that wasn't enough to pinpoint the identity. Furthermore, Shiina Riki was now becoming preoccupied with his own ranking, leaving him no time to ponder the identity of the mysterious drummer.

"So... there are really only three of us left?"

Shiina Riki replied grumpily, her cheeks flushing slightly with embarrassment. She looked up, only to meet Hibiki Uehara's smiling gaze, and suddenly felt embarrassed, feeling like she'd been seen through. While not concerned about the results, Shiina Riki's competitive spirit was ignited when she realized she might be the last of the two bands.

"Tsk, I feel really bad. I have to show my real ability in this test."

The sunlight shifted slightly, and the temperature in the room seemed to rise. Seeing Shiina Riki's sudden energy, Uehara Hibiki suddenly leaned forward, his hands on either side of her, and began a new round of teasing. His voice lowered a few degrees, a hint of obvious teasing.

"Do you need me to personally give Li Xi 'tutoring'?"

"Why are you suddenly so close!"

The competitive spirit that had just risen in Shiina Riki was immediately replaced by shyness. His breathing became unconsciously rapid, and his heart beat wildly in his chest, so loud that it seemed as if the whole room could hear it.

But when she subconsciously retreated, Uehara Hibiki moved a little closer, and his warm breath brushed her earlobe.

"Because, Li Xi is really cute when she's shy. I can teach you a lot, besides the normal subjects, there's also health and physical education."

"Woo!"

Shiina Riki immediately understood Uehara Hibiki's evil intentions. Of his four girlfriends, only Shiina Riki hadn't yet... experienced a real battlefield. And now, the harem king was no longer willing to hide his lustful heart.

Faced with Uehara Hibiki's hint, Shiina Riki's shyness instantly broke through all the protection of her brain and reached its maximum, causing her to lose her mind instantly. She grabbed the pillow on the bed next to her and started smashing it.

"You bully me! You bad guy!"

"I'm not bullying you, I'm just asking for your opinion."

Uehara Hibiki dodged while laughing, admiring Riki's cute face as she blushed and her heartbeat beat fast. However, considering that if she continued to tease him, she might really be kicked out, Uehara Hibiki knew when to stop and raised her hands in a gesture of surrender.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. Let's get down to business, get down to business!"

"Business? There's no business today!"

Shiina Riki immediately saw through Uehara Hibiki's stalling tactics. Whether it was the new songs she was planning to perform this week or the tracks for next month's exclusive live performance, everything was already prepared. Today, at Riki's house, they were still planning the summer music festival.

Although she knew that it was a critical juncture, since it was still early, Shiina Riki would temporarily exercise her power as a girlfriend.

"Bah, you're such a jerk. You can't tell the situation apart. I didn't even think about agreeing to you."

This was the tsundere answer of the tsundere girl, and after Uehara Hibiki's inner thoughts, he immediately understood and gave the girl a sweet kiss in return.

As long as he can distinguish the occasion... Shiina Riki is still willing to accept Uehara Hibiki's "teaching".

Chapter 151 The power of belief.

With the end of the topic about studying, the short break quickly ended. For Uehara Hibiki and Shiina Tatsuki, composing is still the top priority.

Outside the closed window, raindrops pounded against the glass, signaling a different kind of weather. Inside, just like before, Shiina Riki sat at his computer, while Uehara Hibiki sat cross-legged on the bed. Riki's meticulously tidied room was now littered with sheet music and notebooks.

"It's finally been decided. The third line of 'A Meeting of Sounds' has been finalized. We'll use the fifth version and won't need to change it anymore."

"That's fine. If you keep changing the music before a live performance, Aine will protest."

"Hmph, that guy, I hope she can practice well this time."

Shiina Ritsuki said this, but when she recalled how Aine had always been so focused during those practices, a smile crept onto her face. As a bandmate, Shiina Ritsuki had long recognized Chihaya Aine, but it was just for the sake of her tsundere persona (crossed out)… because Aine always irritated her, that was why she was always in a bad mood.

Seeing Riki's tsundere behavior, Uehara Hibiki didn't expose her at this time, but quietly wrote down her words and prepared to tell Aine later. Presumably, for Aine, this was a great material for teasing Shiina Riki.

"But, Lixi, when you look at the lyrics of 'A Meeting of Sounds', don't you have any thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, Shiina Riki immediately looked at the serious Uehara Hibiki with an extremely speechless and contemptuous expression.

"You're not done yet, are you? You haven't stopped since last week!"

"I can't help it. This is the love song Deng wrote for me."
