I have bound two systems.

Needless to say, after Ichichi Hongxia moved here with her sister, she basically placed it in the small apartment where they originally lived.

As time went by, the two sisters brought here all kinds of useful things from home.

All electrical appliances in the apartment were unplugged, windows and vents were sealed, and the sofa, bed, television, etc. were covered with dust sheets.

The reason is simple: this house where we all live together is much more comfortable than the original apartment.

This comfort is reflected in all aspects. First of all, you no longer have to be suddenly woken up in the dead of night by the loud noise of someone walking back and forth or pulling a chair on the ceiling.

People who live in apartment buildings should have had similar experiences to a greater or lesser extent.

Another thing is that the area here is much larger, not to mention that it also comes with a small garden.

Although there weren't actually any flowers in the garden, it was just covered in lawns.

But even so, having such a private place where you won't be disturbed by others, in the gradually warming seasons from spring to summer, it is a great enjoyment to take an hour or two of rest time in a cabin, lazily put out an armchair, and just lie on it, rocking lazily and doing nothing.

In fact, Ijichi Hoshige had done this several times during the period when the four members of the band were studying and had less work.

In the process, she also came up with something that she had never thought of before.

Or, should I also try hard to buy a house like this in the future?

Not to mention, with her current savings and current monthly salary, it is not difficult to realize this idea. It mainly depends on how strong her personal idea and desire are.

Yidizhi Xingge went upstairs and knocked on her sister's door first. After hearing "Come in", she pushed the door open, leaned half of her body in, looked inside but did not go in.

In a room dominated by warm light yellow, Ijichi Hongxia was sitting at the desk in cute home clothes and headphones. The computer screen displayed the homepage of a forum about the end of the band. Judging from the way she withdrew her hands from the keyboard, she seemed to have just been interacting with fans' messages.

"elder sister?"

"Ah, I'm going to go out later and may be back late. Don't wait for me. You will have to prepare the celebratory dinner tonight by yourself."

The band’s recently released new single has once again topped the charts, and everyone has decided to have a small celebration tonight.

"I understand. Go ahead. I'll ask Liang to help. If that doesn't work, we can just order some takeout."

"Isn't that guy up yet?"

"Well, after all, we played games so late last night."

"This time, make sure she doesn't put stainless steel cutlery in the microwave to heat it directly."

"Don't worry."

"What is she doing now?"

"I left home after breakfast this morning. I think I went to look for Suzumiya-kun. He said he would be back before dinner."

"Oh, like this……"

Yidizhi Xingge muttered softly, said nothing more, raised her hand and waved, then closed the door and walked out of the house.

Forty minutes later, she arrived at an English-style tea restaurant. As soon as she entered the restaurant, she saw her good friend Shizuka Hiratsuka waving at her from afar.

"You're late."

As soon as Ichichi Xingge sat down, he heard his friend's complaints.

"You know how busy I am taking care of all of them. Today is finally Sunday and I can stay in bed. Of course I want to sleep a little longer."

"It's already past two o'clock."

"Ah, that's annoying. I admit that I was a little late when I went out, okay?"

Seeing that he couldn't fool people, Yidizhi Xingge simply stopped pretending.

After all, they have been friends for many years, and their relationship will not be affected by such trivial matters.

This is indeed the case.

But this gave Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was smiling playfully, room to make use of the situation.

"I see. This is the state that an unsatisfied woman usually presents."

She deliberately emphasized the word "unsatisfied".

What she wanted to express was self-evident.

As expected by Hiratsuka Shizuka, Ijichi Hoshika's originally lazy expression quickly became uneasy.

"I've told you several times. I was annoyed by your questions at the bar, so I said those words in anger."

"Hmm~"

"Listen to what others are saying, don't look so annoying."

"I don't care. I've said it. Anyway, I don't think what you said at that time was just angry words, but a rare expression of your true feelings."

"...People who lack popularity with men are really bored. They have no one to spend time with, so they keep looking for me to kill time."

Ichichi Hoshige's words became increasingly sharp.

Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't care at all.

"Whatever you say, I'll remember your words forever... Hey, wait a minute, Xingge, what are you doing? Don't come over here... This is a public place... Ugh!!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka was leaning back in her seat with her legs crossed and making jokes calmly one moment, but the next moment she was frightened by the grim look on Ijichi Hoshika's face as she stood up. Although her subconscious instinct to survive made her surrender instantly, she still couldn't escape the fate of being choked and choked.

Of course, it's not to the extent of causing the opponent to suffocate due to lack of oxygen in a fighting arena. This form of interaction between the two of them is mostly playful.

"Seriously, how's it going?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka was adjusting her collar. Xingge coming close to her didn't make her feel uncomfortable, but the buttons on her collar were loose and a little wrinkled.

"Well... that's it..."

Xingge supported her chin and looked out the window.

Looking at her slightly drooped eyes and obviously listless tone, one could tell that the answer she was giving was quite perfunctory.

"Please show some respect to your friends. You should know that I turned down a social event for young male and female teachers jointly organized by several schools today, and specially invited you out to help you solve your problems."

"Really? I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't have anything to worry about. Also, the social activities between young male and female teachers..."

Xingge looked over suspiciously and gave a pointed comment:

"Ah Jing, you are not young anymore, you are almost 30."

"……puff!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka covered her chest.

Invisibly, she seemed to hear her heart being stabbed hard by something sharp.

Words can kill people, the ancients were not deceiving me.

"Aren't you the same!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka responded viciously, gritting her teeth.

"It's okay. I have a younger sister. If things don't work out, I can let her or her children take care of me. As for you, Jing... I will try to find more time to visit you in the nursing home in the future."

"……puff!"

Did the conversation actually start with the premise that they would both die alone?

"I didn't come out here today to tell you this!"

"Oh."

Xingge was still holding her chin up as before, but when she looked out the window, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

"Didn't I tell you before that the reason you have such feelings for your younger president is that you are too busy with work and don't have much time to interact with other men. So over time, the excess female hormones in your body have nowhere to be released. So, adhering to the principle of similarity, you easily cast your eyes on the one who is closest to you. In this case, even if you don't have any thoughts, in a lonely and desolate mentality, you will still easily regard that feeling as a good impression of love..."

Xingge had heard her say the above once after she finished the bar that day and came to Hiratsuka's house.

But even if her friend repeated it again, Xingge still felt that there was some truth in what she said.

Just hearing Ajing, a lifelong single, analyze his emotional problems like this, Xingge always felt extremely weird inside.

This is like a student saying to another student, you did this question wrong, and then volunteered to correct it, blah blah barbara...

But the problem is that these two students, whether they are the ones who actively teach or the ones who are taught, are absolutely the worst students.

How should I put it? It just doesn't make sense and is quite absurd.

But even so, this could not stop Shizuka Hiratsuka from being determined to correct her friend's abnormal affection.

After all, she has been a close friend for many years. How could he just watch her fall into depravity and do nothing?

Even if Xingge hadn't asked her to do so, she would have felt obliged to do so with great enthusiasm.

Of course, maybe she really has nothing to do and is too idle...

"…So what you need to do now is to expand your circle of friends, so that your life is not just about work, and your sight is no longer just about the president. In this way, your immature, desires… um…"

Seeing Xingge's fierce glare, Hiratsuka Shizuka realized that she was speechless and quickly changed her words.

"No, it's not a correct mindset or idea. It will fade away over time and eventually disappear."

"Oh...it sounds like that's indeed the case."

"It's not how it sounds, it's just how it is. How much do you think I worry about you? After I learned about your situation that day, I created a lot of small accounts on forums related to relationships to consult other people about related issues. I also spent a lot of money."

"Spend money?"

"Of course, in the age of paid knowledge, what do you think?"

"Then thank you very much..."

"No, as long as you can get over this incorrect relationship, everything I have done will not be in vain."

After Shizuka Hiratsuka said so much, she saw that Xingge's originally resistant attitude had finally loosened up. She felt a little moved and picked up the coffee and took a big sip.

"But you can't just expand your circle of friends just because you want to."

"Everything depends on human effort. If you are willing, I can arrange it for you right away. In fact, I know quite a few men with good financial resources and decent personalities."

"With a man like this, why don't you take the initiative to approach him?"

The moment Xingge asked this question, she saw Hiratsuka Shizuka's excited expression turn into resentment.

"I wanted to, and I did, but I don't know why. After I showed them the same interests as them, such as comics, horse racing, card collecting, and sports cars, they became very excited. I don't know why, but we gradually became like-minded people. In short, they no longer regarded me as a woman."

"..."

Looking at Hiratsuka Shizuka's tearful expression, Xingge fell silent.

She opened her mouth for a long time, not knowing what to say. In the end, she could only reach out and pat the back of her friend's hand to comfort her.

"I can only say that they are most likely extremely nearsighted. To be honest, Jing, you are so cute and your breasts are so big. If I were a man, I would never let you go."

"That's it!"

"Yes, in short, I'll hook up with you first. Even if I find out later that you like to smoke, have a bad drinking habit, and like to toss around when you sleep, I'll just dump you afterwards. How can I not even try?"

"Snapped!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka patted Xingge's hand and looked at her unhappily.

Xingge touched the back of his hand and tried to make up for his joke with a smile.

"But it's good like this now. I can devote my whole heart to the true love I will meet in the future. It's so romantic to have only one person in my life."

"Oh, in today's society, I no longer have any hope for this... I am hopeless anyway, but at least you still have hope, so at least you have to find true love and forget your immature thoughts about the young president, not only for yourself, but also for me."

"How does this have anything to do with you again?"

"I was hoping that after you get married and have a baby, the baby would recognize me as his godmother. That way, I wouldn't be considered childless. Even if I die alone, there would still be someone to see me off. I don't want to go to a nursing home!"

"That was a joke..."

“But it’s possible that it will come true.”

"Ah Jing, your thoughts have become more and more pessimistic recently..."

"Don't dislike me."

"It depends on my mood..."

"Hey!……"

The two of them then stayed in the store, eating snacks and chatting for a while.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Ijichi Hoshika, who was convinced by Hiratsuka Shizuka, also felt that it was indeed the case.

It is indeed not a glorious thing to have any thoughts about my sister's friend, the adorable Goto Ichiri, and her boyfriend who is so much younger than me.
