Lonely Rock, Liang is my fiancée

Ito Rin didn't care about these things. He got up and started to move around the house. Normally, he drank milk after taking a bath in order to sleep, but this time he did it to replenish his strength.

After finding the milk, they poured two half cups and drank them all in one gulp while looking at each other.

The warm liquid finally stimulated Ito Rin's lonely heart.

"Ryo-chan, I heard that you don't wear underwear under a yukata." He sat back in his seat, staring at Yamada Ryo with his sharp eyes.

"nonsense."

"I know it's nonsense, but you still need me to find evidence."

Chapter 34 Goto Michiyo

The sound of Ito Rin typing on the keyboard never stopped. Hongxia volunteered to discuss the lyrics of the next song with Xiao Boqi. In her words, after being influenced by culture, things are very different now.

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, she enthusiastically approached Goto and told him her thoughts.

As for the effect.

You can tell from their styles that it’s total nonsense!

While they were working seriously, there was a noisy sound coming from downstairs. The strange shoes placed at the entrance made Dad, Mom and Erli realize that the guests had arrived.

"My friend from Ichiri is here already."

"I'm going to see my sister."

"It turns out there are actually boys in their band."

Xiao Erli ran upstairs, Jimmy Henry followed behind her and barked. When her father found that they were obviously boys' shoes, he said with relief.

"elder sister!"

When Goto Jiri opened the door and found that it was Sister Hongxia from last time and a strange boy, his eyes widened. He didn't expect that his sister's bragging was actually true.

He is really a handsome guy.

"Xiaoerli, come to Sister Hongxia."

Unlike the quiet Pochi-chan, her sister is the complete opposite.

After sitting next to Hong Xia, she greeted Ito Rin politely: "Nice to meet you. I am Ichiri's younger sister. Goto Jiri, please take care of my sister."

Little Pochi blushed, and Ito Rin and Hongxia both wanted to laugh out loud. It was the first time they heard the words "please take care of me" but the target was not them. She really understood Pochi-chan.

"Ito Rin, the keyboard player of the band. Goto-san is a very important person in our band."

"I'm certainly not worried about my sister's guitar skills, but I hope everyone can be more understanding of her personality."

"He really has a funny personality."

"Yeah, right? Mom and Dad are worried too."

As he watched his sister quickly become close to the new members, the painful experience of the last time the band members came to visit their home replayed in little Bochi's mind.

How come my friend and sister can do it so quickly?

Senior Ito, please have some principles.

"Erli, isn't it time to do your homework?" she said grimly.

"There's no such thing. Erli is still a child. The teacher told us to play as much as we want after the holiday."

"What about painting?" Little Boqi was not giving up and wanted to transfer her away to avoid focusing all the attention on her.

Ijichi Hongxia paused and took out the gift she was going to give from her bag.

"These are the things I used when I was learning to paint and some of my experience. I don't need them now. I don't know if it's appropriate to give them to Erli."

"Thank you, sis. I love it!"

Goto Jiri took the notes. Although he didn't quite understand the contents, the pictures on them made him feel that they looked very impressive.

If everyone has their own unique talents, Hong Xia, who loves rock music, is best at painting. If it weren't for her sister's influence, she might not have formed a band, but would have joined the school's painting club.

After getting the good stuff, Xiao Erli's attention was distracted. He stopped pestering the adults and took out his paintbrush to imitate the pictures in the notebook.

"You actually use something that condenses time as a gift." Ito Rin said in a low voice.

"I haven't practiced painting seriously since I grew up. This experience can only help Xiao Erli." Hong Xia was very calm and didn't think there was anything inappropriate.

"By the way, Ito, can you play the drums?"

"what?"

"It's similar to the level of guitar. Since you can train Kita, I also want to improve. I can't let the captain be the weakest person in the whole band."

Ito Rin was silent, and faced with her sincere expression, he did not agree for a moment.

His strongest instrument is guitar, followed by keyboard, and he has only learned some of the rest. It's no problem to teach him rhythm and other things, but it's troublesome to go deeper into it.

Especially something as big as a drum set.

The reason why Xiao Xiduo made such rapid progress is largely related to her foundation. Once a beginner reaches a bottleneck, the difficulty of learning will also increase.

"Give me some time, I'll help you think of a solution." Ito Rin finally agreed and planned to go back to find a solution.

"Thank you, Rin."

Except for Liang Jiang, it felt quite strange to be called by his name by others. However, he always called people "Hong Xia" every day and it was not convenient to say other words.

The room returned to its previous rhythm, and Erli would occasionally ask Hongxia to help her look at the pictures.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye the clock on the wall had climbed to the center, and the adults of the Goto family were calling them downstairs.

"Lunch is ready, let's eat."

Ito Rin, who was visiting for the first time, didn't seem to be at all shy. She greeted Pochi's parents politely and began to classify them according to her first impression.

Mrs. Goto looks like a very talkative woman. I don’t know if it’s because she takes good care of herself, but her skin and appearance look like a girl in her twenties. Pochi’s figure is probably inherited from this lady.

As for Mr. Goto, why is there a faceless man?

"I didn't expect that Ichiri's band actually has boys. And we heard her say, is Ito-kun planning to apply to the University of Tokyo?"

After serving Ichiri's favorite Tang-style chicken nuggets, Goto Michiyo talked about the topic of academic performance that all parents love to hear about. However, she had given up her expectations for her eldest daughter and instead transferred her academic expectations to Erri.

They have faced the reality and feel that being able to make a living from the music they love is a good thing and is very suitable for Yili's career.

"Well, after this semester, I will take the entrance exam for the University of Tokyo."

"That's amazing." Michiyo clapped in cooperation, and Ijichi Hongxia couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

She was in the office when this guy was filling out the application. It turned out that the other party went to the best university in the country, but she was called there by the teacher because of flaws in her English test.

"It's just a chance, it's not confirmed yet."

"Won't the band's affairs affect your studies? I feel like you guys need a lot of time to practice, and it's getting late when you get home."

"Mom." After the topic was shifted to her, little Pochi put down the chicken nuggets in his hand.

"Ah, aha, I'm not blaming you. Mom is also very happy if she can have friends to work hard with her."

Michiyo comforted her daughter skillfully, and even had time to wink at Ito Rin and the others.

Ito Rin feels that compared to Bochi-chan, if Mrs. Goto could play the guitar, she would be a perfect match to end the band.

This lady's personality and friendliness are really great.

After a not-so-simple but hearty lunch, the adults stayed behind to clean up the mess while the band members and Erlijiang returned upstairs.

After meeting her handsome brother, Xiao Erli was eager to become a non-staff member of her sister's band, but because she was worried that her already weak presence would completely disappear, Pochi-chan was determined to prevent this from happening.

"Little Pochi, we've found a new guitarist. Sorry you're fired. Erli, come out!"

Thinking of this sad ending, she must stop Erli's invasion.

"Your main job now is studying. And if you want to become a member of a band, you must first master a musical instrument. How is your guitar practice going?"

"I don't have that much time to practice guitar, and it feels no different from before." Xiao Erli counted on her fingers and expressed her level in simple words.

It’s just that others don’t know what the level was like before.

"That won't work. Sister is the weakest in the band. She needs to be at least as good as me."

Hongxia's face turned red after hearing what she said. She was not so shameless as to think that her level was better than Guitar Hero.

And there’s no need to be so strict with non-staff members, right?

For non-staff members like Fans No. 1 and No. 2, it is enough as long as they know how to appreciate music and like to end the band.

"Sister Hongxia is so amazing! I want to learn to play drums too."

"Cough cough..."

"Eri-chan, my brother is the best, okay? Come practice keyboard with me!"

"No, no, that kind of instrument doesn't look cool. The coolest instrument must be the drum set." Goto Jiri shook his head like a rattle, and his remarks were enough to make rock musicians furious.

What a brutal statement!

"It seems that I have to correct your wrong view. The keyboard is the coolest, the keyboard is the coolest, the keyboard is the coolest!" Pressing her temple, Ito Rin repeated in his mouth, causing her to laugh.

"Brother, show some more strength, the drum set is the coolest!"

"When you take pictures, you'll know that guitar and bass are the coolest." Seeing the little girl enjoying herself, he didn't have much energy left.

After all, there is really no need to compete with a drum set to see who is the coolest.

Both of them are in a miserable state. The drummer can still take photos with a drumstick, but the keyboard player can probably only make a gesture.

"Where's little Kita who plays the bass? Why isn't she here?!"

"If she hears you say that, Kita-chan will be angry. She's playing the guitar, and she's probably thinking about how to teach your brother Ito a lesson."

It was just a simple request, but Kita Ikuyo seemed to be exerting all her value. She even refused the invitation to come to Goto's house for a party with this reason.

"Is this another debt you have caused?" Hong Xia smiled and touched Erli's little face.

"...Why do you say that again? When have I ever owed anyone anything?"

Goto Ichiri, who had witnessed their intimate actions and Kita's remarks, nodded in agreement.

"It's not simple between you two."

"..."

Ijichi Kouka's expression immediately became alert, and she looked at Ito Rin with suspicion.

"Don't listen to what Xiao Xiduo says!" Ito Rin felt her whole body go numb when she was stared at. She realized that something was wrong and looked at Xiao Pochi with a serious tone of voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Goto Ichiri shrank his head and apologized decisively.

But the words have been spoken, how can I take them back?

"Don't scare little Pochi, it will make you look guilty." Hong Xia frowned and carefully recalled the details that she didn't notice on weekdays.

His communication with Xiao Xiduo was indeed unusually frequent, especially during the time when he was teaching guitar.

Compared to them, Yamada Ryo is at a disadvantage.

But the most important point is that Xiao Xiduo's target should be Liang, right? How could it be related to him?

"She made a joke when we were setting up the fortune-telling room. Goto-san was there at the time, so there might have been some misunderstanding."

Ito Rin, who indeed had never done anything inappropriate, spoke with sincerity in her explanation.

It would be fine if he really did something wrong, but since it was just Xiao Xiduo's one-sided attack, he would never take responsibility.

Feeling that the atmosphere in the room was becoming inexplicably tense, the waiter sitting between them had his eyes rolling around and was hugging Sister Hongxia and starting to act coquettishly.

"Sister Hongxia, teach me how to draw!"

Her tense dignity was broken, and she stroked Erli's head helplessly, "Hey, you definitely did this on purpose."

"hey-hey."

Pochi-chan watched as they stopped talking to each other and regretted that she had spoken without thinking. Why didn't she have this kind of impulse when making friends?

"Senior, I'm sorry..." Her eyes were darting around, her fingers were almost stuck together, and her tone of voice was aggrieved, making it hard to blame her.

"In the end, it's still Kita-chan's fault. And don't say that in front of Liang. We can still communicate. If Liang-chan hears it, she will definitely cause trouble."

Ito Rin didn't say who she was looking for trouble with, but just vaguely pointed the target at Kita.
