"Father?" Xiangzi turned his head.

"I...can't move forward anymore."

"Mother will surely be sad to see you now!" Xiangzi said with a hint of pleading in his eyes, "Mother once said...your virtue is..."

"It's so annoying!" Xiangzi's father crushed the wine can in his hand and threw it out. The wine can hit the wall, bounced onto the piano, and landed at Xiangzi's feet.

Then, Xiangzi's father knelt in front of his daughter, pleading in his tone: "Enough... Stop caring about me. Seeing such an outstanding daughter like you, I... feel ashamed..."

Xiangzi looked at her father with horror. She had never seen her father like this before.

"Please...disappear!"

Please, go back to the Toyokawa family...

After hearing these few words, Xiangzi felt a sharp ringing in his ears. He had clearly worked so hard for so long... for himself, for his father, and for Xiao Ai, but in the end, his father answered him with this result...

hateful!

After dragging her piano and suitcase out of the rental house with great effort, Xiangzi left the place that hurt her over and over again without looking back.

The cold moonlight shone on her. Xiangzi was walking alone on a remote path in the strange mountains, seeming so out of tune with the world.

So where should I go now? Where else can I go... I'll go back to the office and sleep tonight.

In fact, Xiangzi had originally planned to spend the night in the park, but considering that he had to be in the best condition for the martial arts hall later, it would be counterproductive if he caught a cold in the park. After much thought, he finally reluctantly took a taxi.

Seeing the familiar company again, Xiangzi sighed, but then she shook her head and continued to smile.

It's okay, it's okay, forget about that man, Toyokawa Shoko, you are very close to success now. When I save enough money, I can take Xiao Ai to the United States for medical treatment. Yes, life will be prosperous.

Suppressing all the unhappiness in his heart, Xiangzi reached out and patted his face. Okay, Xiangzi Toyokawa, hurry up and compose the music. You will have to rest today after composing some of it.

"Sakki?"

A voice that was so familiar to him sounded in the silence and broke into Xiangzi's ears without permission.

Xiangzi's body froze, and he turned around woodenly: "Xiao...Xiao Ai? Why are you here?"

"I had dinner with Mumu, chatted for a while, and then sent her home. Now I'm going to take the train home by myself." Aine noticed the luggage behind Xiangzi, "Sakki, are you... planning to stay at the company?"

"I... yes." Xiangzi nodded a little guiltily, "I still have to continue composing tonight, so Xiaoai can go back first.

Really, I didn’t expect Xiao Ai hasn’t gone back yet… Xiao Ai saw my weak appearance again. In Xiao Ai’s heart… I must have become more unreliable.

Chapter 79 Going Home to Meet Parents

Aine met Shoko's gaze, and the latter looked away as if in fear.

Sakki has been crying. Did she come to the company because she had a quarrel with her father?

Aiyin sighed inwardly and reached out to take the suitcase for her: "Let's go to my house."

"Eh? No, Xiao Ai, I..." Xiangzi wanted to take back his suitcase, but Aine dodged sideways.

"Let's go, Sakki, let's go home." Aiyin gently lifted Xiangzi's messy hair and took her hand. "Didn't you say you wanted me to stay with you forever?"

These words struck Xiangzi's heart hard.

Xiao Ai... always comforts and encourages me in a timely manner...

Tears rushed to gather in Xiangzi's eyes.

"Eh? Why is Sakki crying again?" Aine put down the suitcase and wiped away the tears in Xiangzi's eyes.

Without any warning, Xiangzi loosened his grip on the keyboard case, and as it fell to the ground with a sound, Xiangzi hugged Aine.

As expected, choosing Aine was my best choice.

"Xiao Ai, that bastard dad! I tried so hard...but he..."

Xiangzi's tears flowed freely on Ain's body, wetting her shoulders, but Ain didn't care about it and just let Xiangzi vent his unbearable emotions.

"Yeah, Sakki has tried very hard, I see it all."

Listening to Aine's gentle comfort, Xiangzi's tears flowed out as if a valve had been opened.

After she finished crying, Aine took out a tissue and wiped the tears from Xiangzi's face: "Sakki is such a crybaby."

"I, I'm not..." Xiangzi sobbed and refuted Aine's words, but at this moment, these words obviously had no persuasive power.

Aine chuckled and picked up the keyboard and the suitcase standing beside her. "Let's go, Sakki. If we're any later, we won't be able to catch the train."

"Xiao Ai, I'll hold it. Are you feeling well..." At this point, Xiangzi suddenly shut up.

"Hmm? What's wrong, sakki?"

"Nothing... nothing." Xiangzi turned her head away, not daring to look into Aine's eyes. She didn't expect that she would accidentally bring up Aine's health.

"Sakki, you mean to say that I'm not in good health, right?"

Xiangzi didn't say anything.

"It's okay, I know my body." Aine shook her head and handed the keyboard case to Xiangzi. "Since Sakki said she would help me, then you can carry this and I'll just pull the suitcase."

"Speaking of which...would it be annoying for your uncle and aunt if I went to your house?"

Seeing Xiangzi's reserved look, Aiyin laughed out loud: "Where did your courage go when Sakki forced a kiss on me?"

"That's..." Xiangzi wanted to refute, but his voice became increasingly weaker. "There's no comparison at all."

Aiyin made an "OK" gesture to Xiangzi: "Don't worry, I've told my mom that we're a couple, and she wants to meet you too."

In a trance, Xiang-Yue Yi Yi: Yin (? 2) Shi. Shi Bar Zi seemed to see a beam of light shining on his body.

Aine has already told her family about my relationship with her... Her mother also wants to meet me, I'm so happy.

"So, sakki, let's go home."

The soft touch on his hand pulled Xiangzi out of his illusory dream. Xiangzi turned his head and was met with Aine's reassuring smile. Finally, the corners of Xiangzi's mouth rose slightly.

"Well, go home."

The two got on the tram. Outside the window, the complex scenery was quickly receding. After a while, the tram finally stopped.

Xiangzi followed Aine's footsteps and came to Aine's home.

"jingle."

"Mom and Dad, I'm back."

"coming."

The sound of footsteps gradually became clearer from the other side of the door. Then, the door opened and Aine's mother looked at the two girls in front of her tenderly: "Ah, you are Xiaoxiang, right? You are so beautiful."

"Eh? Auntie knows me?"

Aine's mother chuckled, "Aine-chan just told me you were coming. She'd already shown me your picture before."

"Is that so?" Xiangzi bowed and said solemnly, "I'm sorry, Auntie, to trouble you and Uncle so late. I'm very sorry."

Xiangzi's words and actions all revealed the elegance of a young lady, which made Aiyin's mother smile from ear to ear. She was very satisfied with Xiangzi: "No, no, Xiangzi is such a well-behaved child, he is not a trouble. It is our Aiyin who is the trouble."

“Mom.” Aine pouted, expressing her dissatisfaction, “Why am I in trouble? I’m also very good, okay.”

Xiangzi also spoke up to defend Aiyin: "Auntie, Xiaoai is really well behaved."

"Really? Then Aine-chan should be well behaved only in front of Xiaoxiang, but not at home." Aine's mother said, looking at Aine and raised her eyebrows.

Aine immediately understood from this small gesture, well, my mom is like this again, forget it, I won’t bother with her this time.

Then, Aine pointed to the suitcase in her hand and said, "Mom, let Sakki and I go in first."

"Oh, yes, yes, I was busy chatting with Xiaoxiang. Sorry, Xiaoxiang." Aiyin's mother hurriedly made way.

"It's okay, Auntie." Xiangzi walked up to Aine, "Aine-chan, let me bring this up."

Now, in front of my aunt, I have to behave well and give 200% of my energy! Do what a partner should do.

"Eh? Sakki, I can..."

Without waiting for Aiyin to finish, Xiangzi reached out and grabbed the handle of the suitcase, and lifted the suitcase over the threshold with force.

Aine looked at Xiangzi with some admiration: "Sakki is amazing, she can actually carry this suitcase with one hand."

Xiangzi smiled but said nothing.

"Xiao Xiang, Aine-chan said you need to sleep here because of some band matters. Is it okay for you to sleep with Aine-chan? Unfortunately, I don't have a guest room at my house."

"Eh?" Aine looked at her mother with a puzzled look on her face. "No, why don't we have a guest room? Didn't I just send a message on the train asking you to pack it up?!"

But Aine soon realized what her mother meant, and a blush spread across her cheeks.

"Oh, it's okay, Auntie. As long as I have a place to live, it's fine." Xiangzi shook his head, signaling Aiyin's mother not to worry.

"Then let Aine-chan help you clean up, okay? Auntie has something else to do, so I won't disturb you two for now." After saying that, Aine's mother tactfully went into the kitchen and started to get busy.

At the same time, Aine's father came over and took the keyboard case and suitcase from Xiangzi's hands: "I'll help you put it up, Xiaoxiang, and then you and Aine can clean it up together."

"Thank you uncle."

"it's okay no problem."

After Aine's father put away Xiangzi's luggage, he tactfully left the room. The room was very quiet, so quiet that Xiangzi and Aine could clearly hear each other's breathing.

Chapter 80 Xiao Ai, No (20 chapters to go)

This is Aine-chan's room...so cute.

Xiangzi looked around curiously. Unlike the noble Toyokawa family, the strange lighted room, and the dilapidated rental house, Aine's room gave Xiangzi a unique girlish feeling.

That feeling is like strolling in a cherry blossom forest. The breeze blows, rolling up countless cherry blossoms. When the wind stops, the flowers fall. In front of you stands your lover, gazing at you lovingly.

But when Xiangzi's eyes moved to the corner, boxes of medicine came into his sight. These medicines looked so glaring in this dreamlike girl's room.

"Sakki, it might be a bit crowded for the two of us to sleep together at night."

Ain's voice pulled Xiangzi back. She turned her head and looked in the direction Ain pointed. A pink bed appeared in front of her.

"It's ok."

Xiao Ai’s bed is so cute… No, I can’t look at it anymore, I have to tidy up and compose music.

Xiangzi pulled the suitcase over and said, "Xiao Ai, where should I put my clothes?"

"Oh, there's an empty cupboard here, just put Sakki's clothes in here."

"Well, thank you, Xiao Ai."

Xiangzi knelt in front of the suitcase and gently opened it. Inside were his clothes and a doll.

"Doll? Does Sakki like this?"

"This doll belongs to my mother, Xiaoai. I only told you that I lived with my father. I didn't tell you that my mother had passed away when I was in junior high school." Xiangzi's voice was a little heavy.

My mother also died of illness, so when I heard you say that you also had a terminal illness, I... opened my heart to you. At that time... it was not just because of the image you had in my mind.

In a trance, Xiangzi returned to the place where he and Aiyin confessed to each other, the activity room.

I have ALS.

After all, it's only been a short time since I got sick, so I still look like a normal person... But this is a terminal illness, so if I wait a little longer...

Every word Aine said at that time was like a knife cutting through her heart, helping Xiangzi recall the grief she felt when her mother left.

I can't let the same tragedy happen in front of me twice!

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry for making Sakki recall sad things." Aine knelt beside Xiangzi and comforted him softly.

Xiangzi shook his head: "It's okay, I've gotten over it, and now I'm constantly moving forward."

“Yes.” Aine nodded. “How about putting this doll on the table? You can always look at it while you compose music.”

"Okay, I'll listen to Xiao Ai." As he said that, Xiangzi gently kissed Aiyin on the face.

"Then, shall I help you put Lu Yii's silk silk back?"

"it is good."

With Shoko's permission, Aine took the doll from the suitcase and put it on her table.

Looking at Aine tiptoeing around, Xiangzi felt a sense of happiness in his heart.

Xiao Ai knew that this was something I cherished, so she treated it with extreme care.

When Aine put the doll away, she didn't hear any movement from Xiangzi. With doubts in her heart, Aine turned her head away.

Xiangzi was staring at him blankly, and his unconcealed gaze made him feel a little uneasy.
