Problem Girls Strategy

Liang held the popsicle stubbornly, as if he wanted to exchange it with him. Jiang Zao wanted to say something distressedly, but suddenly a question popped up in his mind.

Liang can even chew leaves. Is there really any food that she doesn't like to eat?

Recalling her behavior at the cultural festival today, Jiang Zao looked at her strangely.

In the haunted house, Mingming Liang and Goto Ichiri were the type who were not very afraid of ghosts, but they actually hid behind him together with Hongxia and the others, and they were happy to hug him from four directions with them.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to?" Liang's voice was as cold and emotionless as usual. He pushed the popsicle in his hand forward a little more, almost poking Jiang Zao in the face.

"It's not that I don't want to..." Jiang Zao smiled bitterly and took the popsicle: "It's just too sudden, I didn't expect it."

Liang snatched the white popsicle from his hand, licked it with her pink tongue, and then put it into her mouth with satisfaction: "Then get used to it slowly."

"When you say habit, do you mean that I will become your ATM machine or a recycling station in the future?"

The milky popsicle melted in her mouth. The delicate taste made Liang unable to resist taking a big bite. The sweetness seemed to be magnified dozens of times, flowing from the tip of her tongue into her heart. She walked in front, her ears stained with a blush: "You are used to...indirect kissing, right?"

Jiang Zao put the black popsicle into his mouth. Just as he expected, this popsicle was not bad at all. It looked dark black and seemed to taste like coffee, but it actually tasted like chocolate and had a very good texture.

After buying replacement parts for the guitar at Liang's suggestion, Jiang Zao silently looked at Liang who was walking briskly in front of him. On the way back, the two did not communicate again and returned to STARRY as if nothing had happened.

When they reached the door of the recording studio, Liang returned to behind Jiang Zao, maintaining the same order as before leaving.

"We're back."

"Thank you for your hard work. Hurry up and help Pochi-chan fix the guitar."

Except for Jiang Zao, everyone present had experience in how to maintain and repair the instruments in their hands. He could only sit aside and watch the girls repair the guitars. He would only be asked to help when strength was needed.

"Phew~ It's fixed. Let's continue training!"

"Yeah." Goto Ichiri nodded repeatedly while holding his brand new guitar.

I feel like the guitar is saying thank you! I am definitely in a better relationship with it now!

Chapter 135: Suppressed Feelings

Hong Xia raised her drumsticks and struck them. The crisp sound made everyone look at her: "Before we start practicing, let's decide on the interlude for the performance."

Interludes are also part of the performance, used to liven up the atmosphere and keep the audience enthusiastic.

"How about introducing the members and songs, and then giving a sentence or two of your thoughts?" Kita Ikuyo chose the most conventional approach, which is to introduce the band members when introducing the next song after the song ends, then give a sentence or two of their thoughts, and then go on to the next song. This is also the approach they adopted when they first performed in STARRY.

"I, I think this is great." Goto Ichiri thought that there were only three songs in this performance, and if she was put last, she wouldn't even have a turn to express her thoughts, so she quickly agreed to Kita Ikuyo's suggestion.

"Ah~" Hong Xia laughed awkwardly, "It's good now, but I want to use interesting lyrics to liven up the atmosphere in advance, just like popular bands."

"It's not fun without the band's interlude," Liang directly poured cold water on the heated atmosphere in the recording studio: "The fans are just laughing along to avoid making the atmosphere awkward for their favorite band."

"Your idea is too extreme. How much psychological trauma did that performance leave on you?!"

"As long as the band is popular enough, even if the interlude is shit, it can still make the audience laugh, so don't worry."

"Are you trying to comfort me or laugh at me?"

Hongxia and Liang refused to give in to each other. Hongxia believed that even a band with not much popularity should put effort into writing the interlude, so that the performance would give the audience a better feeling. Liang believed that instead of putting energy into the unforeseen audience reaction, it would be better to put all energy into the performance. As long as the audience was moved, ordinary interlude could also liven up the atmosphere.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was becoming increasingly tense, Goto Ichiri nervously hugged her guitar with a terrified expression as if the band was facing a crisis of disbanding. Kita Ikuyo clapped her hands to stop them from arguing any further: "Okay! Stop arguing!"

"Jiang Zao too, why didn't he come forward to stop the two seniors?"

Jiang Zao put down the half-drunk bottle of happy water in his hand. Facing Kita Yuyo's complaints, he spread his hands innocently: "Occasional quarrels are also beneficial to the relationship between friends."

"What if you and Pochi-chan had a fight?"

"Ah." When Goto Ichiri heard this, he turned his head and looked at Jiang Zao pitifully.

"Of course it's my fault." Jiang Zao didn't even blink, and answered immediately: "Pochi-chan is so cute, how could she be wrong? Besides, we have a good relationship, it's impossible for us to quarrel."

"Um... Jiang, Jiang Zao..." Goto Ichiri covered her red cheeks, squeezed into her boyfriend's arms shyly, and kept muttering his name.

"Pochi-chan is really being taken advantage of by you..." Kita Ikuyo can more or less understand those girls who choose to share Jiang Zao. Faced with such almost unlimited pampering, even a stone would be moved.

Jiang Zao raised his head proudly while stroking Goto Ichiri's fur: "Hehe, I can say that no one in this world knows Pochi-chan better than me."

"Yes, yes... I know you two have a good relationship." Hongxia took out three pairs of sunglasses, put one on herself, and handed the remaining two to Liang and Kita Ikuyo. These were specially prepared by them to prevent their eyes from being blinded by the light of this couple.

"So, which way of writing the connecting words do you think is better?" Liang was still thinking about this matter.

"I think what you two said is very good," Jiang Zao made a small suggestion: "Why don't you consider combining your two ideas together?"

"The next interlude will be decided based on the response to the first song. If the audience responds well, then we'll use Hongxia's approach. If the response is average, then we'll use Liang's approach. These things can be changed flexibly."

"What you said makes sense, what do you think?"

"I'm OK."

"I agree."

"Well, Pochi-chan will definitely not deny Jiang Zao's words, so it will be passed unanimously." Hong Xia nodded approvingly: "As expected of us as the fifth person to hide after the band ends, very reliable, then let's practice it one last time!"

......

As the passionate music ended, the last practice session made them all feel an indescribable sense of relief. Perhaps this was the practice session in which all members reached their peak performance since the band was formed.

Kita's guitar skills...seem to have improved a lot...

Goto Ichiri was a little surprised, but he was more happy for Kita Ikuyo's improvement.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. I borrowed Hong Xia's kitchen to make an apple pie. You can eat it before going back." Jiang Zao walked into the recording studio with the smell of butter on his body and gave the girls a little surprise.

"Okay, Pochi-chan, let's go out quickly. You only ate a piece of the cake last time, so you have to eat more this time!" Hongxia pulled Goto Ichiri out of the recording studio to prevent her sister from eating most of the apple pie before they arrived.

Liang had already sneaked away without anyone noticing when Jiang Zao walked in, smelling fragrant.

Jiang Zao and Kita Ikuyo were the only ones left in the recording studio. He walked over to Kita Ikuyo and said, "Kita, let me see your hand."

Jiang Zao wouldn’t be able to tell, right?

"Eh?" Kita Ikuyo turned her head and nervously put her hands behind her back: "This... this is not good, right?"

"All of you are causing me a lot of trouble. It's not something that can be exposed to the public, so why are you hiding it?" Jiang Zao forcefully grabbed Kita Ikuyo's left hand.

There was an abnormal pinkish tint on her fair wrist, and her slender and delicate fingers were trembling slightly. It was obvious that Kita Ikuyo had been practicing guitar with great intensity during this period, causing her wrist to be overly strained.

"You're not planning on going home and practicing secretly after practice today, are you?"

"I...my foundation is worse than everyone else's. If I don't practice harder, I will only fall behind."

"Ah~" Jiang Zao sighed and gently massaged Kita Ikuyo's wrist: "You are trying too hard. If you hurt yourself in order to keep up with the pace, they will not agree, and neither will I. Do you understand?"

"Hmm..." The originally sore wrist felt much more comfortable under Jiang Zao's superb massage skills. Kita Yuyo really wanted to confide to Jiang Zao about the depression of not being understood by her parents at home, but reason told her that once she brought up this topic, she would most likely do something to let Goto Ichiri down, and she couldn't do that.

The "Massage (Lv4)" skill that Jiang Zao had trained under Kazama Ichihime eliminated most of the pain in Kita Ikuyo's wrist. Seeing that the unnatural light red color on it had dissipated, he let go of his hand and subconsciously patted Kita Ikuyo's head: "Don't make me worry too much."

"Okay." Kita Ikuyo touched the place where she was spanked and bit her lips tightly.

He and I just stay friends.

Chapter 136 Now is fantasy time!

Kazama Ichiki: "Nymph, could you please go to your brother's school?"

Nymph: “Okay.”

Kazama Ichihime: "Just record the end of the band's performance for me, and then you can ask your brother for a reward after the recording."

Nymph: “Yeah.”

.......

On the day of the cultural festival performance, Jiang Zao carried the large and small bags of equipment for the girls in the band to the backstage preparation room. He put down the last black suitcase and Hong Xia handed him a bottle of mineral water.

"Jiang Zao, you've worked hard. Drink some water and take a rest."

"Thank you." Jiang Zao unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip: "Will the manager and the others come?"

"Yeah," Hong Xia took out her phone and showed Jiang Zao the chat history: "Look, my sister said she would come with Sister Guangjing."

"That's good."

Goto Ichiri sat quietly in the chair. Today she was wearing the black uniform of the band, and her lower body was still the usual combination of school uniform skirt and pink sweatpants.

I have to be confident. As long as I can show my Guitar Hero strength, everything will be fine!

Who knows... maybe... thanks to this performance, the band's fame will soar!

"Hehehe..." Goto Ichiri laughed strangely.

"Very good, I have made preparations for your debut. From today on, the record company that belongs exclusively to the Ending Band will fully support you." Jiang Zao held a rose in his mouth, wore a suit, and was surrounded by twinkling stars, like the protagonist in a girls' comic.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the subways, streets, and road signs were all replaced with promotional advertisements for their band's end.

The success story of an active high school girl band that became an overnight sensation was reported in the news. Countless news media flocked to the band just to interview them about their growth process, and it even became a well-known legend in the industry.

With countless concerts and advertising collaborations, Goto Ichiri fulfilled her dream of dropping out of high school. In less than a few years, she had a net worth of over 100 million. During a concert, she and Jiang Zao had an unprecedented magnificent wedding surrounded by the blessings of her fans and teammates.

"Jiang Zao, I'm back." Goto Ichiri was wearing a mature OL outfit and took off her sneakers. She had just finished a day's work and returned home.

Jiang Zao came out to greet her wearing a pink apron. He was holding a soup spoon in his hand and seemed to be preparing dinner.

"Pochi-chan, why are you still calling me by my name?"

"Oh, sorry." Goto Ichiri smiled slyly, put on his slippers and walked quickly to Jiang Zao, burying his head in his arms: "Honey, I'm back."

"Welcome back, my wife." Jiang Zao hugged Goto Ichiri and lowered his head to sniff her hair: "Hmm, there is a faint smell of fried food. Did you secretly buy some fried chicken on the way back?"

"Ah."

"Pochi-chan, you are naughty. If you want to eat fried chicken nuggets, you can just tell me in advance. Why do you have to buy it outside? What if the ingredients are not good and you get sick? You are a big star now, you have to be responsible for your own health."

"Honey, I'm sorry..." Goto Ichiri rubbed his head against Jiang Zao's chest, pouted his lips and looked up at him with watery eyes: "I couldn't help smelling the aroma of fried chicken nuggets. Compared to this, I'm hungry."

Jiang Zao showed a helpless smile, gently pinched her nose twice, and said in a doting tone: "I really can't do anything about you. I specially made hamburger meat and cola chicken wings for you, as well as your favorite soup."

"Yeah! I love you so much, husband."

"Go wash your hands." Jiang Zao patted Goto Ichiri's perky buttocks: "Dinner will be served soon."

"Hmm!" Goto Ichiri stood on tiptoe, left a kiss on his face, and ran away giggling.

After dinner, Goto Ichiri lay happily on the sofa, touching her belly, with her legs wrapped in black pantyhose restlessly resting on Jiang Zao's legs, and she used her toes to mess around while he was massaging her.

"Stop it!" Jiang Zao patted her thigh gently: "Is your work going well recently?"

"Yeah! I'm going on a global tour soon. I'm really looking forward to it."

"World tour? Doesn't that mean I won't see you for a long time?"

"Why don't you just come with us?"

"Since you became famous, I rarely go out. I have to stay at home every day to take care of you lazy little cuties."

Goto Ichiri turned around and put his head on Jiang Zao's thigh. His fingertips moved up his waist and up to his cheek, then pinched his chin: "How am I lazy?"

Jiang Zao gently bit Goto Ichiri's pink fingertips, causing her to scream and let go of her mischievous hands, giving him a coquettish look.

"You have to wait for me to wake you up every morning. You don't even want to walk at home. You just want me to hold you..." Jiang Zao listed a bunch of lazy behaviors of Goto Ichiri at home.

"Hmph... You actually remember so many of my shortcomings. I'm not going to pay attention to you!" Goto Ichiri turned her head away angrily. She decided to ignore Jiang Zao for at least thirty seconds.

"Are you really angry?"

"Pochi-chan?"

"Why don't you even reply?"

It’s not...it’s not even thirty seconds yet. I’m counting silently in my mind. Only twelve seconds have passed. I have to hold on!

Seeing that she remained silent and staring at the TV, Jiang Zao stretched out a finger and poked her puffy cheek. The feeling of poking marshmallows made him somewhat addicted, and he kept poking Goto Ichiri's tender cheek.

Goto Ichiri was filled with resentment because Jiang Zao did not coax her at all and even played with her cheeks. She just turned her head and was about to complain: "Jiang!"

Jiang Zao changed from poking to pinching, grabbed her face and squeezed her cherry lips into a goldfish mouth, then "ah-wu" took it all in his mouth.
