Li Xi turned to look at Hai Ling: "But she didn't tell me about the conflict between that guy and Mu. Tell me what you know."

After a moment of silence, Hailing spoke: "Toyokawa said that Wakaba has two personalities. I guess the one who had a conflict with Chihaya that day must be the other personality."

Before Li Xi could speak, Hai Ling raised her head and looked towards the sky. She was fascinated by the azure blue painting. "I... really envy you."

"Huh? Why?" Li Xi turned his head, looking confused.

"This time, I've seen what kind of person Chihaya-san is. I envy you for having her as a friend and a teammate..." Hailing paused and continued, "I've never met someone with such strong execution... She's someone who cares deeply about her friends... and is willing to do anything for them."

"Hailing, I've never heard you talk so much at once. Aren't you going a little too far?" After saying this, Li Xi saw that Hailing hadn't said anything, so he lowered his head again, "Well, although that's true... so what?"

"nothing."

Li Xi looked at Hai Ling suspiciously, but didn't continue the topic: "Mu has two personalities?"

"Well, judging by her behavior before and after, I can confirm that what Toyokawa-san said is correct."

"So now... let's get her to understand?"

"She's the same as when I first met her, but...she's more cheerful and willing to express herself."

"Is that so?" Li Xi took a bite of rice. "That guy has been dealt with."

Hailing murmured softly, "The nearly burned-out cigarette has been given a new lease of life. This time... how long can it last?"

Li Xi looked at Hai Ling calmly. She hadn't expected that what Ai Yin did would be so highly regarded in Hai Ling's heart, although her own evaluation of her was not low either.

"Would you like to see her?"

After Li Xi finished speaking, Hai Ling, who had been looking up at the sky, suddenly turned her head, looking surprised: "Huh? Why do you say that?"

Li Xi spoke directly from his inner voice: "Because... I feel like you want to see her."

I feel like you want to see her...

Hai Ling sighed inwardly. Should she say it or not? As expected of Li Xi, even though she did think so... could she really have a conversation with Chihaya? I... those things in the past... could it really be possible... But I don't want to get hurt anymore... and I don't want to hurt others anymore.

"forget it."

"Yeah."

Li Xi was not surprised to hear Hai Ling's refusal. He just held the lunch box and ate lunch quietly.

Hailing no longer had her mind on Lixi. She looked up at the sky. Birds flew across the sky, leaving behind their shadows.

Suddenly, the conversation in the lounge the day before yesterday and Aine’s figure on the stage yesterday appeared before his eyes again...

Is Chihaya-san ill? Otherwise...why would Toyokawa-san and Wakaba-san have been arguing over Chihaya-san going on stage? And...she actually knelt down on the stage...

"Did you know that Chihaya-san was taken to the hospital after the performance?"

Although she knew it was not a good idea to say this, Hailing still couldn't help asking.

"I know." Li Xi nodded, "Are you really not going to see me?"

Hailing didn't expect Lixi to ask again. She paused for a moment: "I..."

"She should still be in the hospital. Let's wait until she has a good rest and comes back."

Li Xi's gentle words made Hai Ling stunned. The corners of her mouth rose slightly: "Chihaya-kun, it's incredible that you can become so gentle."

"Huh?" Hailing's words made Lixi's face flush. She hurriedly retorted, "Nonsense! How can I be gentle? This is just a normal attitude towards patients, right?"

Li Xi's humiliated expression was imprinted in Hai Ling's eyes, which actually eased her heavy heart a lot. Hai Ling sighed and said, "Well, let's eat quickly. It's almost cold."

"have you eaten?"

"No."

Hearing this, Li Xi took out a pair of disposable chopsticks from the lunch box: "Do you want to eat? I can't finish it?"

The pair of monotonous disposable chopsticks were grabbed and appeared in front of Hailing. She lowered her head, her eyes fixed on the chopsticks, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a moment, Hailing exhaled again and smiled slightly: "I'm starting."

……

On the other side, the hospital.

Aiyin sat quietly on the bed, Su Shi sat beside her, holding her chin with her hands and looking at her quietly, as if she was very satisfied with this.

"jingle."

The phone next to her suddenly rang, and Aine suddenly came back to her senses. She subconsciously turned her head and wanted to take the phone, but Su Shi grabbed her wrist and said, "Aine-chan, just sit down. I'll get it for you."

"Eh? That's too much trouble, Soyorin."

"It's okay, I like Aine-chan the most." Su Shi smiled as she said this.

That touch of tenderness fell into Aiyin's heart, making her tremble. She nodded and accepted Su Shi's kindness to her.

Su Shi took the phone and glanced at it: "Meow Mengqin?"

Chapter 160 The Reason for Forming Mujica

Hearing Su Shi's words, Aine was confused: "Huh? Meow Mengqin? Why would she send a message suddenly?"

"I don't know." Su Shi handed the phone to Ain, who took it and clicked on it to enter the chat interface.

[Meow Dream: Aiko, are you in the hospital?]

"Why did Meow Mengqin know that I was in the hospital?"

Su Shi sat down: "Maybe he saw you being pulled into the ambulance yesterday?"

"Maybe."

[Ain: How did Meow Mengqin know?]

[Meow Dream: I saw it yesterday when I was chatting with my family.]

[Aine: Family? Could it be that Meow Mengqin’s family came to the Fukuoka concert?]

[Meow Dream: Well, when will you be discharged from the hospital?]

[Aine: Probably about three days left.]

[Meow Dream: Oh, so which ward are you in?]

Aine was taken aback by the sudden message from Meow Meng. Which ward? What was Meow Meng thinking? Was she coming to see me?

[Aine: Eh? Isn't Meow-chan coming to see me?]

She said this half-jokingly, and before Aine could start to build up her emotions, Meowmeng's words followed.

[Meow Dream: Well, yes, so where is it?]

Upon hearing this, Aine's hand stopped and she turned to look at Suyo: "Um...soyorin, Meowmeng kissed her and said she wanted to come see me."

"You're here to thank you, right?" Sushi had already peeled the apple and handed it to Aine before continuing, "You're probably here to thank Aine-chan for saving AveMujica, right?"

“Is that so?” Aine was stunned, then suddenly realized.

What soyorin said seems to be true. Miao Mengqin's family went to see the Fukuoka concert. If it were me, if my family went to see a performance, I would definitely want the performance to be the best... Before, Mortis almost disbanded Mujica, so she...

Thinking of this, Aine said, "Then...I'll tell Meow Mengqin where I am?"

As Aiyin finished her words, Xiangzi pushed the door open and came in, answering, "Go ahead, we're all here."

"Sakki, you and Mumu are finally back." Aine smiled when she saw Xiangzi and Mumu coming back.

"Well, I bought a lot of food to nourish your body." Xiangzi placed the large and small plastic bags in his hands on the table, then walked over to Aine and said, "Just tell Yutenji."

"Well, that's fine."

After telling Miao Meng the address, Aiyin handed the phone to Su Shi, who helped her put the phone back on the table.

Mu stood at the end of the bed and looked at Aine: "Aine-chan, how are you feeling?"

"I feel much more relaxed."

"Really..." Mu's eyes were devoid of joy, her thoughts drifting back to a few hours ago...

The street was bustling with people. Xiangzi walked side by side in harmony with others. No one spoke, and he seemed so out of place with his surroundings.

As if he was somewhat fed up with this situation, Mu finally spoke up: "Xiangzi, what are you going to do?"

"Eh? Mu, what do you mean?"

Mu lowered his head and said, "What should we do about Aine-chan's ALS?"

"I...still have to rely on AveMujica first..."

"Shoko...are you going to use AveMujica to make money to treat Aine-chan's illness? But...wouldn't it be too slow? Can her illness...wait that long?"

After saying that, Mu stopped and raised her head.

Seeing the person next to her stop, Xiangzi also stopped, turned around and met Mu's eyes. She clearly saw doubt and sadness in Mu's eyes.

“Mu... Initially, I wanted to earn money from AveMujica to pay for Aine-chan’s medical treatment... So before I established Mujica, I returned to the Toyokawa family and found my grandfather...”

Mu just looked at Xiangzi quietly and listened to her speech.

"I returned home and told my grandfather that I needed some money to start a band that everyone would know and make money. My grandfather told me that running a band would make money too slowly, and that I would be able to make money as soon as I returned..."

Seeing Xiangzi pause, Mu asked, "Xiangzi?"

"Then, I told him that I needed a lot of money to cure ALS. He was silent for a while and said it was a bottomless pit. There is still no case of a cure in the world. He told me to give up."

Xiangzi took a deep breath, his body trembling a little. "But I refused. I said if you don't support me, give me some money and I can do it myself."

"After that, my grandfather fell silent. He said that if my band could really become successful, I would return and become the heir, and he would not interfere too much with financial matters."

After saying that, Xiangzi looked at Mu and took her hand: "Mu, that's why... I always want to keep Mujica running and prove it to my grandfather."

"I see..." Mu nodded, "I understand, Xiangzi... I have a goal now. Let's work together... to keep Mujica running... for Aine-chan."

"Well, thank you, Mu." Xiangzi felt more comfortable at this moment. It was really relaxing to express what was in his heart.

"Xiangzi, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Mu lowered his head. Now... I have one more reason to stay in Mujica... a most precious reason... It turns out that Xiangzi is not going to break down... it's because of this.

"Because... I didn't want to make Mu worry... I didn't want to cause Mu any trouble... I thought I could handle it on my own."

"Xiangzi... idiot." Mu hugged Xiangzi tightly. "Aren't we... childhood sweethearts?"

"Mu..." Xiangzi's eyes were a little moist. Yes, I am not alone... I still have friends...

After a moment, Mu let go of Xiangzi. She raised her head and asked the most realistic question: "Xiangzi...you said your grandfather said that ALS has never been cured...so, where should we go to treat Aine-chan?"

Xiangzi held Mujica's hand, his eyes full of anticipation: "When Mujica has better results, we will find the best doctors and use the best equipment. There will definitely be a way."

"But... your grandfather should know much more than us... He said there's no way... So... is there really a way?"

"That's impossible, Mu." Xiangzi forced a smile. "Maybe my grandfather is lying to me? Maybe he just wants me to spend less money, right?"

Seeing Xiangzi's self-deception, Mu shook his head and broke her fantasy: "Xiangzi...you know it clearly, right?"

"I……"

For a moment, Xiangzi was silent. Mu was right, she knew it very well in her heart, but... it hadn't started yet, so asking her to give up was naturally an impossible option.

Seeing this, Mu didn't continue talking, but squeezed Xiangzi's hand and said, "Xiangzi, let's work hard together, for Aine-chan."

"Mu..." Xiangzi's lips curled up into a smile again: "Well, how can I give up if I haven't tried my best yet! Let's go buy some food to nourish Xiao Ai. Let's leave it at that. Don't let Xiao Ai know, otherwise she will definitely not accept it."

"Ah."

Chapter 161 Meow Dream Visits the Sick

Mu's thoughts returned to the present. She shook her head, throwing out everything she had just discussed with Xiangzi. She walked towards Aine with a calm and gentle look.

Aine felt Mu's gaze and turned away in shame. She knew that Mu must still be upset about her hiding the fact that she had ALS.

"Aine-chan, do you want to go out and play during the summer vacation?" Mu's voice broke the silence.

Aine was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Mu to suddenly make such an invitation: "Huh? Yes, you can."

"Summer vacation?" Xiangzi suddenly realized, "Oh yes, summer vacation is coming soon, Mu, I want to go too."

"Yes." Mu nodded. "Xiangzi will go too."

The three of them chatted one after another, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

However, Su Shi, who was standing aside, looked a little lonely. She bit her lips and lowered her eyes, as if she was unable to fit in with this warm atmosphere.

Aine and Mutsu naturally noticed Sushi's abnormality, but before Aine could say anything, Mutsu gently took her hand and said, "Sushi... do you want to come? It's fun."

Su Shi raised her head and her eyes met Mu's golden eyes. The sunlight shone through the window onto them, making Su Shi a little dazed.
