But isn't this a bit too much? One person almost ate up two bands...

Just as Hailing was distracted, Xiangzi felt a few vibrations in her pocket. She took out her cell phone and saw a message from Su Shifa. After reading Su Shifa's message, Xiangzi's eyes lit up a little: "Everyone, Xiaoai's examination is done, and the situation is surprisingly good."

"Really?" Chu Hua took out his phone, looked at the message in the group chat, and laughed from the bottom of his heart, "That's great."

"Yeah." Mu put the phone back in his pocket and gently strummed the guitar a few times.

"Indeed." Miao Meng nodded. "This way everyone can rest assured. Lingluolu and Lin'eryue/Yi's appearance on the show the day after tomorrow will be even more worry-free..."

At this point, Miao Meng suddenly paused. She turned her head and looked at Hai Ling, who had been silent the whole time: "Haizi?"

"Hmm?" Hailing came back to her senses when she heard Miao Meng calling her name. "What's wrong?"

Miao Meng straightened up: "Did you hear what Xiangzi said just now?"

"What?" Hailing tilted her head.

"Aiko's examination results were surprisingly good."

As she spoke, Miao Meng handed her phone to Hai Ling. After seeing the message from Su Shi, Hai Ling nodded slightly: "Really? That's good."

After resting for a while, they started rehearsing again. However, Hailing made several mistakes again. Seeing this, Xiangzi did not force them to continue rehearsing.

After the group disbanded early, Hailing packed up her things and was the first to leave the rehearsal room.

Looking at Hailing's back, Miao Meng shook his head gently: "Really, what on earth is Haizi doing today?"

"Forget it, Ruomai, Hailing must have some unspeakable difficulties, right? I feel that when the time is right, she will tell us." Chuhua gently comforted Miao Meng.

Hearing this, Miao Meng sighed and nodded: "I think so."

I really don't know what Haizi is thinking...

No longer thinking about Hailing, Miao Meng turned to look at Xiangzi and the other two: "Are you going to go find Aizi later?"

"There's nothing important to do right now," Xiangzi shook his head. "Besides, Deng and the others are there with me. I'll go home today and think of a new song."

"Is that so?" Miao Meng nodded.

"I'll go to Sumi's place later. I've only been there for a short time recently." Chuhua blushed a little embarrassedly, "If I can't go, Mana won't be able to carry out her activities."

"Where's Mutsuko?"

"Today... I went home to practice guitar." Mu lowered his head. "It's been a while... I haven't practiced."

"Everyone's busy." Miao Meng turned her head to look at the drum set. She walked over and put away her drumsticks. "But it's true. After all, Aizi doesn't have anything to do now, so it's time for him to do his own thing."

"I just don't know what Haizi is going to do..."

Hailing walked out of the company quickly and stood at the door. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Really? I'm in such bad shape today." Hailing clutched her bass case tightly. She made at least five mistakes during today's practice.

Five times - I have never missed so many times since I learned to play the bass. This is completely unworthy of my identity as a bass mercenary.

"It seems... today is not a good day to play bass." After making an excuse for herself, Hailing took out her cell phone. The time was only two o'clock in the afternoon.

"There's nothing to do now anyway. In that case... let's go see how that guy is doing chasing Aine." Hailing thought so and walked towards the hospital.

Chapter 358 The Question Finally Asked

These two guys... Tsk, if I hadn't been thinking about them all the time, how could I have made a mistake?

Sitting on the tram, Hailing sighed softly. She sat quietly on the seat, looking peacefully at the scenery outside the window.

Although Hailing knew that this was her problem, she didn't want to admit it.

Soon, Hailing arrived at NCNP and walked to the door of the familiar ward. She knocked gently on the door.

"Knock knock knock."

A crisp knock on the door was heard inside, and Li Xi responded with a sentence: "I am coming."

The door of the ward was slowly opened. When Li Xi saw who was coming, she paused for a moment, as if she didn't expect it to be Hai Ling. "Hailing, why are you here?"

Shouldn't Hailing be rehearsing hard for her upcoming TV show? Why did she suddenly come to the hospital?

"I'm here for an inspection." Hailing said calmly, "Let me in."

"Oh." Li Xi nodded and moved aside to make way.

When Hailing entered the ward, she was stunned. The ward was very quiet. Only Aiyin and Lixi were there. Seeing this, Hailing turned around and looked at Lixi: "Why are you the only one taking care of Aiyin?"

"Not long ago, Dr. Yamada came to the ward and called Auntie away. He said he wanted to discuss the next surgery." After a pause, Li Xi continued, "Su Shi and Deng went downstairs to pay the bill."

Having said that, Li Xi shifted her gaze to Aine. Originally, one person was enough to pay the bill, but Su Shi took the lamp away before leaving. She herself realized that Su Shi did this specifically to create an opportunity for herself to be alone with Aine.

"Does Auntie need help with the subsequent surgery?" Hailing was puzzled. "Shouldn't Dr. Yamada handle the surgery alone?"

"My aunt asked the same thing, but Dr. Yamada said that family members have the right to know and need to be informed of the risks of subsequent operations." Lixi bit her lower lip lightly. Although Dr. Yamada did not say whether it was just about the third gene editing operation, Lixi felt that there should be more than one.

"Is that so?" Hailing nodded.

After the two of them finished talking, Aine's voice interrupted: "By the way, why did Umirin come here suddenly? Aren't we rehearsing anymore?"

"The rehearsal is over." Hailing's voice trembled slightly.

"So soon?" Aiyin was a little surprised. According to the previous schedule, Hailing and the others would still have at least two hours to finish their rehearsal for the day.

"Yeah." Hailing nodded slightly. She was not lying. Although it was her mistake that caused them to end the rehearsal early, the rehearsal was still completed.

"That's amazing," Aiyin exclaimed. She looked at Hailing with a hint of surprise. To be able to finish rehearsal so early, did that mean everyone's level had improved? Otherwise, how could it be possible to end so early?

As for the mistakes, Aine didn't think about it. In her impression, even in a difficult competition like "Symbol I:", they didn't make any mistakes, let alone the daily rehearsals?

Hearing Aine's praise, Hailing's eyes twitched, and she actually felt a sense of shame in her heart.

Suppressing her inner embarrassment, Hailing glanced at Riki who had already sat down next to Aine: "How are you guys... now?"

"Huh?" Li Xi was stunned. He never expected that Hailing would suddenly turn the topic to him.

She subconsciously stood up and opened her mouth to explain the situation, but suddenly stopped. She really didn't know how much progress she and Aine had made. She only knew that she could always be with Aine.

Aine naturally observed Rikki's every move. She smiled and came to Rikki's rescue: "Well, although Rikki is clumsy, he is also very reassuring. Moreover, he even went out of his way to buy breakfast for us this morning. That's very impressive."

After Aiyin said these words in front of Hailing, Lixi turned her face away in embarrassment. Her face was flushed and she didn't dare to look Hailing in the eyes.

Seeing Li Xi like this, Hai Ling just smiled slightly. She naturally would not expose Li Xi.

Hailing nodded slightly and jokingly said, "I see, it seems that Lixi has made considerable progress."

“Indeed.” Aine nodded with a smile.

Just when Li Xi was about to say something, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was her sister calling: "Sorry, I'm going to answer the call."

Watching Li Xi walk out of the ward, Hai Ling withdrew her gaze and looked at Ai Yin: "Ai Yin, with Li Xi's current emotional intelligence, how long do you think it will take for her to confess her feelings to you?"

Hailing asked a very direct question. Now that it was just her and Aine, there was no need to hide anything.

“How long will it take…” Aine lowered her head in thought. Emotional matters like these were usually based on feelings, not a specific deadline. If Aine were asked to specify a date, she wouldn’t be able to. “It depends on how I feel.”

"Feelings?" Hailing walked over, took a chair, and sat down at the end of Aine's bed. "So... how do you feel about her now? Are you still feeling the same as before?"

“How is that possible…” Aine pouted, her face flushed. “After all, Rikki said before that she wanted to pursue me… How can I possibly treat her as a friend?”

"If she confesses her love now, will you agree?"

“I… probably will.” Aine lowered her head, “But… we’ll only be a couple in name only… As for our daily interactions, I feel like they’ll still be pretty much the same as they are now.”

"Really?" Hailing nodded. "That means you're slowly changing your mind about her, right? You said before that you'd appreciate Lixi's efforts, but now you're changing yourself too."

Hearing Hailing say this, Aiyin's face turned even redder. She turned her face away embarrassedly: "Umirin, you...you shouldn't say that. It would be bad if Rikki heard it."

Aiyin did not deny it. She knew that Hailing's emotional intelligence was completely different from Lixi's, and it was almost impossible to deceive Hailing.

"By the way, Aine, I have one more thing I want to ask you."

"What? Just say it, umirin."

After getting Aine's permission, Hailing stood up and met Aine's gray eyes: "What do you think of them?"

Aine was stunned and didn't react for a moment: "They? Who?"

Hailing glanced at the closed door: "Who else could it be?"

Seeing this, Aine also reacted, her eyes full of confusion: "What do you mean? I don't quite understand what you mean."

"That is, what do you think about them all confessing their feelings to you?"

Finally, Hailing asked her doubts - the question that was bothering her. If it weren't for this, her bass would not have gone wrong.

Chapter 359 What other bands can’t see

How do you feel about other people's confessions of love to you?

Aiyin lowered her head, the question Hailing asked her echoing in her mind. After a moment, she raised her head and met Hailing's eyes again.

Seeing this, Hailing crossed her arms over her chest and looked at Aiyin quietly, waiting for her answer.

"Actually, I didn't expect everyone to confess their feelings to me," Aiyin told Hailing honestly. "Originally, when I came back from England, I just wanted to finish high school and live a life where I could get a little bit of attention..."

After a pause, Aine smiled softly, "In the end, it became involved with everyone. It was quite unexpected."

"This kind of life was not part of my original plan."

Hearing this, Hailing nodded. She did not detect any hint of lies in Ain's words. Of course, she also believed that Ain would not lie to her. As for why she believed this, she didn't know. She just felt this way subconsciously.

"Is that so?" Hailing slowly walked to Aine's bedside and sat on the other bed. "That guy Riki said he liked your personality. Seriously, he was arguing with you at the beginning, but in the end..."

At this point, Hailing paused and shook her head slightly: "Not entirely. She would often mention you when she chatted with me in Hanasaki River. Maybe she was interested in you at that time."

"That's something Rikki would do." Aine chuckled. "Also, why did Umirin suddenly ask me about this?"

"Because I want to know." Hailing's tone was calm. "I've seen a lot of things like this when I was a backing bassist in other bands, but I've never seen someone have so many girlfriends at once... The key is that your girlfriends all get along very well, which is completely different from other bands."

Hailing closed her eyes, and all she could think of was what she had seen and heard in other bands. But after a moment, she opened her eyes again and saw Aiyin with an embarrassed face.

Seeing Hailing open her eyes, Aiyin answered awkwardly: "Um... Actually, I don't know why Sakki and the others get along so well. I clearly told them that I have more than one girlfriend..."

"Maybe it's because they were already familiar with each other...so they're willing to trust each other?"

"But... when Soyorin confessed to me, I told her I had a girlfriend... and she said she didn't care." Aine fell into deep thought, "Even though she didn't know that person was Sakki at the time."

"That means Su Shi likes you very much." Hai Ling looked at Ai Yin, and her straightforward look made Ai Yin a little scared.

After a moment, Aine felt a little embarrassed by being stared at. She asked softly, "Umirin, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Although I know you're a nice person, Aine, I didn't expect them to like you to that extent back then."

At this moment, Hailing admitted that the interest she had in Aiyin had finally broken through the shell and started to sprout.

She really wanted to know why the other girls were so devoted to Aine.

Aine sighed: "Who knew something this complicated would happen to me..."

"Since it has happened, just accept it." Hailing smiled softly.

The next moment, Lixi pushed open the door, and Su Shi and Deng followed her in.

"Hai Ling?" Su Shi was stunned.

"Yeah." Hailing nodded in response, "Sushi, Deng, hello."

"Hello... Hailing." Deng looked at Hailing timidly. She didn't communicate much with Hailing.

Sushi asked the same question that was on her mind as Aine: "Doesn't Mujica have a rehearsal?"

However, Hailing still used the excuse that "rehearsal was over" to get away with it.

It was already evening when Hailing and Lixi left the hospital.

Walking on the street, the neon lights fell on them. Hailing put her hands in her pockets and said calmly, "Want to eat outside?"

"Outside?" Li Xi glanced suspiciously at the surrounding restaurants and nodded slightly, "Alright, I'll tell my family."

"Okay." Hailing nodded and turned to walk towards a ramen restaurant.

After sending the message to his family, Li Xi also jogged after them.

When they arrived at the ramen restaurant, they ordered two bowls of miso ramen and sat down at the innermost seat.

Li Xi held his chin with one hand: "Why did you suddenly remember to eat outside?"

"Yeah, it just occurred to me." Hailing said perfunctorily. Then, she met Li Xi's eyes and asked, "How do you feel about getting along with Aine now?"

"You..." Li Xi consciously recognized the face, "Didn't you ask everything at the hospital?"

"That was Aine's answer. What's your answer?"
