I just want to take photos of them.

Iori Ayako whispered to Xia Xin beside her.

"Then Ayako, do you want Xu Mo to be the boss and push down an ignorant female employee like you?"

Xia Xin knew that Iori Ayako liked the bloody love TV series in Japan. It was no joke that the female-oriented plots in Japan were a hundred years behind those in China. The female-oriented authors here had already played out the plots, but they were very popular in Japan. Xia Xin just couldn't get the excitement of such plots.

"Ah~ No, I was just surprised to see a different side of you. Isn't your senior usually very gentle to us?"

"It seems like what you said, Ayako, does make some sense."

After hearing what Iori Ayako said, Xia Xin suddenly felt that she was a bit of a lovesick girl.

"Sure enough, I shouldn't watch those bloody TV shows with you Ayako. Now I'm letting my imagination run wild."

Xia Xin was really confused. She didn't know whether it was right for her to have a crush on Xu Mo. She knew that he was flirting with her, but...

Xu Mo came to the office area and introduced Iori Ayako and Xia Xin to the employees who were slacking off. Xu Mo directly pointed out that this band is currently the company's main group and hoped that the work tasks related to this band would be taken seriously in the future.

After the introduction, Iori Ayako and Xia Xin thought the tour was over. They had been looking around for a long time but couldn't find the music practice room, so they thought Xu Mo hadn't had time to set it up yet.

"Okay, Ayako and Natsuko, the two of you follow me. I'll show you the practice room."

Under the guidance of Xu Mo, the two were surprised to find that there was an internal elevator here that required facial recognition to use.

After taking the elevator to the upper floor, passing through the door with a password and pupil recognition, and then walking through a small corridor, what comes into view is the lounge. There are different rooms around it. The room doorplates are marked with different nameplates, including dance studios, instrument practice rooms, and the like.

The most surprising thing is that there is a bathroom and a room for accommodation. This can be considered a luxury suite on a large floor. Is this really a practice room?

Chapter 136: Carol's Inspiration for the Novel

Xu Mo clapped his hands towards the three surprised people, attracting their attention.

"Ayako, and Xia Xin, come here first so I can record your fingerprints and iris information. Oh, Carol, you should record it as well. If you want to come over to play later, you can come anytime."

This was the first time that Lingzi and Xia Xin had seen such a novel thing. Entering personal information was not complicated, and the three of them finished entering it in a short while.

"Senior, is this our band's practice room?"

Xia Xin pointed to the room with a sign saying "Musical Instrument Practice Room" on the door and said.

"Well, that room is prepared for you. Although it hasn't been fully decorated yet, why don't you go in and take a look now?"

"Xin-chan and I both want to see it."

"Then come in."

Xu Mo pushed open the door, and a pungent smell of decoration materials hit him. The windows in the house were fully opened, and the smell was much lighter than at the beginning.

“This drum set seems to be a high-end brand from Tama.”

As a drummer, Xia Xin naturally first paid attention to the drum set placed in the house. The drum set she usually used for practice was just a popular brand and not too high-end.

Iori Ayako was patted on the shoulder by Xu Mo, and then Xu Mo took down a guitar from the guitar storage rack next to him. This was the guitar that Xu Mo bought when the two first met, and it was also the guitar that Iori Ayako had been thinking about for a long time.

"As we agreed, this guitar is now yours."

After Xu Mo finished speaking, he handed the guitar in his hand to Iori Ayako. Iori Ayako was so excited that she was incoherent and couldn't even speak coherently. In the end, Iori Ayako could only kiss Xu Mo's cheek to express her gratitude. But for some reason, after Iori Ayako kissed him, she looked towards Xia Xin. Xia Xin was concentrating on playing the drums and didn't see what was happening here.

"As expected, high-end brands are different. It's great to be able to use this drum set~"

"Sister Xia Xin, is this drum really that good?"

As an outsider in the field of music, Carol didn't know what a good set of equipment meant to the user. So, when Carol saw Xia Xin like this, she couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Of course, from the sound quality, the feel of the keystrokes, and the comfort when using it..."

Xia Xin rattled off several examples to illustrate the advantages of this drum set, but unfortunately Carol just nodded as if she understood.

"Okay, now that we've finished reading, let's get down to business. Let's go to the studio and record the song 'Love That Never Ends'."

Xu Mo's plan is to first have Iori Ayako and Xia Xin record a pure instrumental version of the song, and then post it online. The company will operate it and create some fame. After finding a suitable lead singer, they will release the full version. After the popularity is slightly formed, they will find a professional outsourcing company to make an anime MV, and the content will naturally be about a love triangle. With this set of publicity, the band should be well-known on the Internet.

"Don't be too stressed. This is just a recording session. If you fail, you can start over. When we start touring in the future, that's when you should worry."

"Ayako, did you hear that?"

Xu Mo's words were only directed at Iori Ayako. Xia Xin and Xu Mo wouldn't be too worried, but Iori Ayako...

"I, I'll try my best to correct my problems before the show."

Ayako Iori was very uneasy because she had no confidence that her phobia could be cured.

"Don't worry. I'm telling you this so you don't have to be too stressed. I'll find a way to solve your problem. Now just focus on recording."

Xu Mo didn't expect that his casual words of comfort would be interpreted by Iori Ayako as pressure on her. For a moment, Xu Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

After entering the recording studio, Xu Mo and Carol sat at the main console in front of the transparent glass, while Iori Ayako and Xia Xin pushed open the door and walked into the recording studio.

Through the glass, Iori Ayako and Xia Xin saw Xu Mo making an OK gesture, and at the same time, a questioning voice came from the radio. Iori Ayako and Xia Xin also made an OK gesture, indicating that they were ready.

Seeing that they were both ready, Xu Mo pressed the switch. . .

——The dividing line of recording songs——

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xu Mo smiled at Iori Ayako and Xia Xin who were pushing the door open. Because of the long playing time, the two of them had sweat all over their foreheads and their faces were red. Seeing Xu Mo smiling at them, their cheeks became even redder.

"Sister Ayako and Sister Xia Xin, you have worked hard~"

Carol took out the cold drinks and towels that she had prepared and handed them to the two of them.

After wiping the sweat from their foreheads, Ayako Iori and Xia Xin took a big sip of cold drink and felt like they were alive again.

"You guys take a rest here for a while. I'll send the recorded songs to the operation department."

After saying that, Xu Mo took the USB drive and turned to leave the recording studio.

"Sister Ayako, have you practiced this song for a long time?"

"Indeed, Xin-chan and I practice every day when we have free time, just to be able to play better."

"That band performance was really complicated. Obviously, there was nothing wrong with your playing, but Brother Xu Mo still asked us to do it again."

"That's Carol, you don't understand. Band performances require more than just individual skills. They also require teamwork. The level of cooperation between Xin-chan and I is not great yet, but it's much better than when we first started."

Xia Xin also agreed with Iori Ayako's words. The cooperation between them really needs to be improved.

"Wow, is that so? But I thought you and Natsuko-sama had a very good relationship. Do you still need to practice even so?"

"Well, it's like this. Xin-chan and I met because of music. In fact, it was Xin-chan who helped me unilaterally and didn't let me be alone. During a performance, if we want to cooperate well, we need to understand each other's small habits and movement details when playing. This is a process that accumulates over time and cannot be achieved in a short period of time."

Iori Ayako and Natsuko smiled at each other, because as friends, the two really got along well.

After listening to Iori Ayako's description, Carol nodded thoughtfully. Then she suddenly said:

“I think I got some inspiration!”

"Oh? Carol, have you come up with any inspiration for a campus theme?"

Xu Mo just came back and heard what Carol said, so he asked curiously. Iori Ayako and Xia Xin were completely confused.

"It's decided. Carol is going to write a novel about a girls' campus band! The prototype is this band of Brother Xu Mo~"

Chapter 137: Inappropriate Conversation

"This is a great topic. You actually came up with Carol yourself."

When talking about campus bands, the first thing that came to Xu Mo's mind was the original world, a TV series from the island country. Beautiful girls, bands, friendship, and passion are indeed good selling points for general novels. If Carol used her own beautiful girl band as the original, then Carol would be the ancestor of the beautiful girl + music genre in this world.

"Novel? Carol, you wrote a novel. What kind of novel is it?"

As a Japanese, Iori Ayako was naturally influenced by the local two-dimensional culture. Not only does she like watching youth love TV dramas, but she is also keen on some youth love light novels. According to her understanding, online novels in China are also non-traditional literature, so she subconsciously regards it as a genre of light novels.

"It's a passionate adventure novel. I don't think you would like to read it, Ayako-sama, because it doesn't contain the love story that you would like to read."

Carol shook her head, causing her styled braids to sway from side to side, and waved her hands.

As expected, when Iori Ayako heard that there was no romance element, she seemed to lose interest. However, Xia Xin continued to ask out of politeness:

"So Carol, are you going to write a novel based on us now?"

"Yes."

"So what is the main positioning?"

"As for tags, Carol thinks they should be about friendship between girls and striving for dreams."

Carol had only just come up with the general background of the story and had not yet determined the main plot outline.

"But, Carol, if your previous novels were passionate novels, the audience would probably be mostly men. If you write a story about friendship between women like this, will your previous audience not buy it?"

Even though Xia Xin didn't know much about the profession of novelist, she thought of a key question.

"It's okay. The protagonists of my previous novels were all girls, and I asked the editor, and the backend data there is similar for boys and girls."

"Also, in my previous novels, I often described the friendship between the heroine and other female companions. But for some reason, some male readers always post comments like "Orange is great", even though it's clearly just friendship between girls. Moreover, female readers often refute them. The last two groups of people always quarreled fiercely. Could it be that those male readers have never made friends with girls? It's really strange."

Carol was really confused about this.

"If that's the case, then there's really no problem for you to write about this topic, Carol."

As soon as Xia Xin finished speaking, she saw Iori Ayako had slipped next to Xu Mo without her knowing when, and the two of them had started chatting and laughing.

For a moment, Xia Xin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't understand why the introverted Iori Ayako was so proactive in front of Xu Mo. Could love really change a person? Although it was indeed Iori Ayako who liked Xu Mo first, she always felt that she didn't want to fall behind Iori Ayako, because she did have a little affection for Xu Mo.

Thinking of this, Xia Xin took the initiative to walk over and interrupted their conversation.

Carol, who was standing by, suddenly thought, since we are going to use Iori Ayako and Xia Xin as prototypes, why not add Xu Mo in as well? Write about the love-hate relationship between this male character and several female characters in the band.

In a corner that Xu Mo didn't know, Carol had completely evolved into the Northern Myanmar author, luring readers who just wanted to read about beautiful girls, but found out later that it was a harem.

"Senior, I, I want to go to the bathroom~"

Iori Ayako suddenly felt the urge to urinate, so she asked Xu Mo.

"The bathroom is right there in the corner, just go in."

Xu Mo pointed to the door in the far corner. Iori Ayako nodded and walked towards that direction.

"By the way, Sister Xia Xin, you just said you would teach me how to play the drums."

Before the performance, when Xia Xin was trying out the high-end drums for practice, Carol was attracted. At that time, the two agreed that after recording the music, Xia Xin would teach Carol how to play the drums.

"Carol, don't worry, I will definitely teach you, come with me."

The two of them greeted Xu Mo and walked into the instrument practice room.

Seeing that the three people had left temporarily, Xu Mo sat on the sofa bored and browsed the forum.

"Dingling bell~"

Suddenly, the phone rang on the coffee table, and Xu Mo found that it was Xia Xin's phone that was left here and she didn't bring it with her. Xu Mo took a look at the caller ID and found that it was Iori Ayako.

"Didn't Ayako go to the bathroom? Why did she call suddenly? Did something happen?"

Xu Mo's heart tightened, and he immediately rushed to the bathroom. When the door was pushed open, Xu Mo saw Iori Ayako, whose skirt and pure white cotton had been pulled down to her ankles.

"Senior!?"

Iori Ayako held the phone to her ear in her right hand, as if she was making a call. When she saw Xu Mo suddenly barge in, she was at a loss for a moment.

"So Ayako, you're okay? Ahaha..."

Xu Mo looked at the intact Iori Ryoko and touched his head awkwardly. Since the toilet was facing the door, Iori Ryoko's legs were spread open without any cover, allowing Xu Mo to see the beautiful scenery in the hospital toilet again.

The barren snowfield was occasionally dripping with golden raindrops, and the cracks in the snow revealed a light pink color.

"I...I...you..."

Iori Ayako was so anxious that she was incoherent. Finally, she had to close her legs and cover her front with her hands. Seeing this, Xu Mo had no choice but to shift his gaze from below to Iori Ayako's beautiful face.

"I saw your sudden call on Xia Xin's phone, and I thought you were in danger, so I rushed over."

"So, Senior, you care about me so much..."

Iori Ryoko thought to herself.

"There's no toilet paper here. I called to ask Xin-chan to bring me some paper. Didn't Xin-chan answer the call?"

"Xia Xin and Carol went to the instrument practice room. Her phone fell on the coffee table, so she didn't answer it."
