Lonely Rock, Liang is my fiancée

Could it be that she made that stupid wish from the University of Tokyo just to be with Hong Xia?

Is she really that careful? Ito Rin remains skeptical for the time being.

Chapter 110: You are the one who is drifting away

"Senior Hongxia!"

The person who missed them the most at this time was not Ito Rin, as he saw them enough at school every day.

It couldn't be Xiao Xiduo either. She was still thinking of doing something bad while her senior was away.

So in the end, only the most pitiful Pochi-chan was the one who truly missed the two seniors.

After all, after Hongxia comes back, she will definitely not have to be in charge of the beverage counter alone anymore.

"Have you finished the test paper I prepared for you?"

Ito Rin looked at them suspiciously.

His girlfriend and good friend are all working hard to get into their ideal universities, so how can he, who has good grades, escape the fate of helping them?

Although I couldn't be with them all the time because I had to work, I still stayed up late to find some university entrance examination papers for them.

"No!" Yamada Ryo's voice was loud and his back was very straight.

"Because I had other things to do, and I missed you all, so I came back early." Hong Xia defended her and had already found a job.

After hearing Pochi's crying and learning from Kokitaka that the effect was good, Hongxia, who also wanted her to gradually become independent, her eyes lit up.

"Itou-san's approach is fine, right? Or rather, it's my behavior that needs reflection. Pochi-chan really needs to learn how to approach others independently."

Seeing that the senior was also about to slide in that direction, Pochi-chan felt that the world was dangerous, so she skillfully found a trash can and planned to sing a song of misery to ease her emotions.

"In Kanagawa..."

"Pochi-chan, stand up a little, I need to take out the trash."

"It's okay, just dump me out too."

"Okay, Rin-chan, come and give me a hand. I can't lift her by myself."

After stopping Yamada Ryo's usual antics, Ito Rin pulled out Goto, who was having trouble accepting reality.

"Sometimes it's like this. Maybe leaving you with some hope will make things better." Ito Rin comforted her.

Pochi-chan looked at him aggrievedly, feeling that her senior still understood her.

A big part of the reason why she was able to hold on at the beverage counter was because of Senior Hongxia. Even if she couldn't save her from the fire and water, it was still a thought.

But when the result really came out, she still fell into despair.

"There's no other way. I still have to get up and continue working. I'll change my clothes and go to work."

Patting her head, Ito Rin looked like the handsome workplace senior in TV dramas who was comforting a newly arrived female employee.

The days passed like this, the time for the competition was getting closer and closer, and the number of street performances and live performances did not decrease.

The difference is that the frequency of Yamada Ryo and Nijika's visits is still not fixed.

Ito Rin also roughly figured out the pattern.

As senior high school students, they entered the review state early, and Class 1 even started this work in their second year of high school.

If the knowledge point the teacher teaches one afternoon is very difficult, Hongxia will take the initiative to find Liang and take her to the library to review.

If it were easy, she would pack her bag and follow Ito Rin to Fanxing.

Is she smart or not?

Ito Rin couldn't tell for a moment.

After this week's live show was over, the band members gathered in front of the door of Fanxing after packing up and preparing to have a celebratory dinner before going home.

Although Pochi-chan's courage has greatly increased, whenever she participates in a live show, she will still enter a short period of inactivity after the show ends.

As the only male in the band, I had no reason to refuse this situation.

Basically, he is responsible for carrying Pochi-chan's "corpse" after each session.

"Senior, there are more guests coming today than before!"

Xiao Xiduo shared the photos she took, and it can be clearly seen that the Fanxing Room is almost full of their supporters.

"Street performances are working, and more and more customers are being attracted."

"In this way, I can feel a small sense of accomplishment." Hong Xia patted his chest and said with satisfaction.

As a girl who considers herself to be quite ordinary, Hong Xia has always been unsure about how big a role she can play in the band.

As for the drummer, he can barely fit in. Even though he can't add icing on the cake, he is at least a solid member of the band.

If she were just an ordinary drummer, she would not be able to support the important task of being the captain. Compared to her, Ito Rin is obviously more suitable for this position.

He cared enough about the band, but he didn't have the patience to be the captain who had to manage everything, so he let her, an ordinary person, take this position.

"It's all thanks to the captain!"

“Not only has the number of viewers increased, but the number of MV views has also increased significantly.”

"Without Hong Xia, the band wouldn't have developed to this point."

"Senior Hongxia... you're amazing!"

The flattery from her teammates made her shy and she had to cover her face, otherwise the redness would be noticed by everyone.

She was not as good as she said, she was just fulfilling her obligations.

If the number of views increases alone, will the number of fans also increase?

After the demo review, the competition will enter the online voting stage. Although the band’s fan base is not large, it can still play a role.

"Hongxia-san is laughing so strangely. Did she think of something good?" Ito Rin, who was walking beside her, had already shaken off Pochi-chan through continuous movements.

If she can't get rid of this habit in the future, she can let other people take responsibility for lifting her, which may help to strengthen her body.

"Is it weird?" She rubbed her cheeks and used external force to restore her smile.

"It's even weirder than Ito Rin's smile. It's scary just thinking about it."

"Liang-chan, why are you bringing this upon me again?" Ito Rin said dissatisfiedly.

Carrying his bass on his back, the lazy Yamada Ryo laughed without any conscience.

"Why, do you still have any opinions?"

"The most outrageous person in the band has appeared." Hongxia said with a smile while hugging Pochi-chan's waist.

"Impossible. A gentle and kind lady like me would only be like this in front of Rin-chan. Hongxia, you know me well." Yamada Ryo was not willing to be outdone.

"It's because I know you that I know Liang is the worst person. You used to joke with me a lot, which was already too much."

They were still arguing about who was the most despicable person in the band. Although Ito Rin thought it was unnecessary, they still had to engage in a war of words if the champion herself was not happy about it.

"Wait, I got an email, stop arguing." Ito Rin stopped them, mainly two classmates from the same class, "It seems that someone has sent us an invitation."

He added: "It was an invitation from a rock band, not some other mess."

"Exhibition hall? Or Sister Hiroi?" Xiao Kita, who could only think of these, asked him.

"Uh..." Hong Xia raised her hand, "I have a similar invitation, and the time conflicts."

"what?"

Everyone, including Ito Rin, came over curiously. The content of the email was very formal and looked real.

"Everyone in the band, nice to meet you. I have listened to your music. I am..."

"Oh, it's actually an invitation, and two invitations were sent out at the same time. It seems that the effects of live and street performances are reflected." Xiao Kita looked very happy.

"What's going on with Ito? Mine says hard rock, which seems to be different from our style." Hongxia raised her head.

"We were invited because they were short of people for the live show, and this store is not small."

"The two times are exactly the same, both next week, so there is no way I can go to both." Xiao Xiduo felt sorry.

Yamada Ryo looked at the email from Hongxia and frowned.

"It's better to confirm with the other party. If they really invite us, we can also confirm which one is more appropriate to turn down."

Hongxia looked at Yamada Ryo with a look that said "How could you be so cruel?", but she couldn't solve the problem that the band members didn't know how to clone themselves.

After communicating with the other party according to the contact information in the email, Ito Rin said regretfully: "It is indeed true, and the time cannot be adjusted."

"Pity."

The invitation from the Ikebukuro livehouse only left the location and time. Hongxia thought about it for a long time but still didn't call.

"If Ito-san thinks the opportunity in Shinjuku is better, then we can go there?"

She was looking at Pochi-chan as she spoke. It might be a big challenge for her to once again go out and perform away from her comfort zone.

"In terms of scale and atmosphere, we are more familiar with Shinjuku, and if we go out more, we can win more new fans." Ito Rin is more inclined to the invitation he has.

Compared to the Ikebukuro livehouse that he had never heard of, at least he knew the inviter in Shinjuku.

The other party is the reservation manager of the exhibition hall, and can be considered half a fan of Ito Rin. The reason he was able to get this opportunity was largely due to the friendship between the two.

Of course, there is no need for other people to know such trivial details.

"There should be other bands performing on that day, right? The synergistic effect of so many bands coming together cannot be underestimated." Hong Xia imagined a bright future.

Xiao Kita is also looking forward to tomorrow's performance, maybe he will have a chance to debut.

"In that case, let's hold the celebration party before disbanding. Everyone should go back and prepare for tomorrow!"

Feeling proud, Hong Xia cast her eyes towards JOJO Yuan, thinking that with their achievements and financial resources, they should be able to try their hand at this high-end barbecue restaurant.

Although the other party's daily average is as high as 8,000 yen!

It is comparable to most of their monthly income from working.

"Captain, we'd better be pragmatic." Ito Rin brought her back to the cruel reality.

"It feels like the captain is the one who cares the most about being invited."

"No way, I just think everyone has worked hard today. There's absolutely no reason to be proud!" Hong Xia defended herself weakly, and amid everyone's laughter, she walked into the restaurant she often went to.

Chapter 111: Quarrels between sisters are as common as stars

At Ichichi's house.

After finishing the band dinner, Hongxia returned home humming a song. Her sister had not come back yet, so she started preparing her sister's dinner.

There are two girls in the house, but thanks to her efforts, the house is still kept pretty clean.

At 9:30 in the evening, the store manager pushed open the door and walked in. The band's early departure had left her and the PA with a considerable workload, and they looked very tired by then.

"elder sister!"

As usual, the two sisters sat around the dining table eating dinner.

Hongxia looked at her sister's tired expression, and the words she wanted to say were stuck in her mouth. She decided to wait until she had finished her meal and was about to go to bed before telling her the good news.

"Are you going to a party again?" Yidizhi Xingge yawned, feeling that after turning thirty, his health was indeed not as good as before.

In the past, when I worked until this time, I would not only feel sleepy, but I might even have a few words with my sister. Now, all I want is to go to bed as soon as possible.

"Ah."

"I didn't agree with you forming a band before, but now it seems that you are doing a pretty good job." Xingge praised him seriously, then quickly finished the rice in the bowl and walked towards the bathroom while dragging his clothes.

"Remember to remind me when you vote online. I will also find someone I know to canvass for you. I need to take a shower and go to bed first."

"Thank you sister!"

Hongxia cleaned up the traces left on the table, humming the new song written by Xiao Boqi, and her mood became happier.

After she finished the housework, Xingge returned to her room. After thinking for a while, she decided to take a shower before going to find her sister.

Ten twenty.

The half-open door was pushed open. Xingge, who had closed her eyes, turned around and saw her sister in pajamas appear in front of her.
