Although, just tell me if it’s rock and roll enough!

Hai Mingli took a deep breath, then pushed open the door and said, "Long time no see, everyone!"

It was the time when the bar was open. Hai Mingli, who had not been out for a few days, was afraid that he would be torn apart and eaten alive by old customers, so he had to speak first before entering the door to shut them up.

But oddly enough...

On the stage, "The Impossible Girls' Hostel" was performing hard. Xiangzi put on his mask and played the keyboard at the end of the team. The other people were also wearing performance costumes, looking like a professional band.

Below the stage, a bunch of audience members cheered, and they didn't seem to notice Hai Mingli pushing the door. Occasionally, one or two audience members turned around and saw Boss Hai standing at the door, whom they hadn't seen for many days. They just nodded slightly and continued to cheer for the audience on the stage.

—Wow, this new band is stealing my limelight.

Hai Mingli was sitting in a booth behind the stage. Suzumiya Ryunasaki, who was singing hard on the stage, saw him. Her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded slightly at him, then sang even harder.

Hemingway: ...

Why does he feel like... he has become the boss of some shady X-rated place?

About half an hour later, the performance ended. After the guests left, Suzumiya Ryunasaki jumped off the stage and ran directly to the stool in front of Umi Akari and sat down.

The other team members, including Miss Xiangzi herself, were on the stage packing up their equipment. The girl looked at Hai Mingli and asked, "Are you here? When are you going to come back to perform?"

"Wait a couple of days. I'm having a social phobia attack." Hai Mingli shook his head.

"Okay~"

Suzumiya Ryunasaki took out a ticket, put it on the table, and pushed it with her hand. The ticket fell steadily into Hai Mingli's hand.

"Here are the tickets, take them."

"Doesn't that guy have any characteristics at all?" Hai Mingli put away the ticket.

The girl replied unhappily: "If I have any, won't I tell you?"

Indeed, Hai Mingli nodded, Suzumiya Ryunasaki has a very close relationship with him, it is impossible for her to hide such things.

Oh, right. The girl took out a few more tickets and said, "These are the VIP tickets for the backstage from Second-Hand Rose. If you like someone, you can give them away as a gift."

After thinking for a while, Hai Mingli took the bill and said, "Thank you."

"Then……"

The girl called out to everyone, "Let's retreat."

"What should we do with the things?" asked Xiaoliang from the band.

"Boss Hai is here, why don't we just let him clean up?"

“It’s too troublesome…”

"It's better to bother him than to bother myself!" said the girl.

They looked at each other, nodded, and followed Suzumiya Ryunasaki to retreat.

In such a big bar, at this moment, Toyokawa Shoko was the only one left.

The blue-haired girl had already changed out of her performance clothes, taken off the difficult-to-hold philosophical mask, and was busy dismantling equipment on the stage.

Just this afternoon, Suzumiya Ryuna called me, and the last thing she said was that Shoko was absent-minded and seemed to be thinking about leaving the team. This time, Hai Mingli came mainly to deal with this matter.

As usual, Hai Mingli went to the counter to mix a drink, poured himself a glass of boiled water, and then called to the blue-haired girl from a distance, "Miss Xiangzi, how about taking a rest first?"

A few minutes later, the blue-haired girl was still busy dismantling the equipment on the stage. Hai Mingli shouted again, "Ms. Xiangzi, you can take a break first. I will dismantle these things later."

I have something on my mind...

The girl seemed not to have heard anything and continued to pack up her equipment, but the abstract young man soon noticed that the girl's hands were shaking and she looked like she was overworked.

"..."

Hai Mingli jumped onto the stage, reached out and held the girl's hand.

"Huh?" the girl exclaimed.

Abstract Youth was helpless, "In the whole band, the keyboard player's hands are the most precious. You still don't take a break when your hands are shaking like this. Are you kidding me?"

"...Okay." Xiangzi replied.

The girl slowly left the stage, Hai Mingli stretched, and took over the girl's work.

Suzumiya Ryunasaki is an impatient person who is content with just singing the song. She has no idea how the equipment is connected. Looking at the radio lines on the ground, Hai Mingli reached out to feel around, which made him dizzy.

This is not a good habit... he thought to himself.

The girl watched Hai Mingli busying herself, and she knew that there were some things about her that she couldn't hide at all.

Silence, silence, silence, just like when Rencai sees a math problem.

"…want to leave this new band?"

Hai Mingli suddenly spoke, holding up the guitar in his hand and throwing it into the guitar case after the sound check. "I know this band is very new and has no reputation at all. It is very difficult to make money."

"So... you want to quit the band 'The Never'?"

The girl pursed her lips and said nothing, but the small details such as her clenched hands revealed her uneasiness. Of course, Hai Mingli was packing up her instruments on the stage and could not see the girl's little movements.

"I……"

After saying the word "I", the blue-haired girl stopped talking. She looked down at her toes, her chocolate-colored little leather shoes reflecting the light from the stage spotlight.

Not talking anymore?

Haiming Lixiang, did he touch the girl's sore spot?

"...I also know that you have a band of your own. If you don't quit that band, I won't allow you to quit. After all, you put a lot of effort into building it, and it would be too unreasonable for you to quit."

"You can't please both sides. If I were in your position, it would be difficult for me to choose either way."

Hai Mingli disassembled the drum set: "But no matter what, as long as you want to do something, I will support you unconditionally."

Once a father, always a father. Hai Mingli may be an abstract guy, but when there is a problem, he will really help.

"I……"

The girl shook her head, then slowly said, "I...I want to quit the band 'Girls Hostel'."

"Okay, I'll send a message right away."

Without any questions or hesitation, Hai Mingli stopped the work at hand and called Suzumiya Ryunasaki directly.

Hai Mingli didn't want to ask the girl why she quit the team. He firmly believed that such a flexible girl must have had her own plans.

The fragile doll from the past is dead, and now she is a human being.

The black-haired girl took a taxi back alone. Her phone rang and she answered it in the car:

"what happened?"

"Suzumiya Ryuna, it's just..."

Hai Mingli glanced at the girl who was bowing her head in the audience, and then without any hesitation, "Ms. Toyokawa Shoko said that she wants to quit your new band."

"Reason," the girl said coldly in the taxi, sounding like a domineering female president.

"This one……"

Hai Mingli looked at the blue-haired girl, then jumped off the stage, walked to the booth and handed the phone to the girl, "You talk to her yourself."

"Hello, how are you, Miss Xiangzi?"

The girl's tone was not as enthusiastic as usual, and she said directly: "Please tell us, what is your reason for quitting the band?"

"I……"

The girl pursed her lips, her translucent blue hair draped over her chest and shoulders. She took the phone and took an inaudible deep breath.

"I, I want to perform with Mr. Hai."

(ps: In fact, the Mid-Autumn Festival extra chapter has already been written)

(But it’s just… hard to put into words)

(I don’t dare to put it in, so I have to upload it to the group file...)

Volume 1 Wow! : Chapter 152 What Music Pokémon?

Haimingli:?

Wait, wait a minute, Xiangzi, weren't you thinking of quitting the team? Why are you joining me now?

Am I a poacher?

"Okay, I won't ask any more questions then~"

In the taxi, Suzumiya Ryunai changed her serious tone and said playfully, "Xiao Xiangzi-chan, is it settled then? You'll follow Hai Mingli~"

The girl was about to hang up the phone when Hai Mingli quickly yelled, "Hey, hey, is that your reaction? Someone on your team is going to run away!"

"Just run away. It's you who pulled her in anyway. You're the one I'm looking for when Miss Xiangzi quits the team!"

Hai Mingli was helpless, "Aren't you going to scold me?"

"If I scold you a few times, will Miss Xiangzi stay?"

After the girl finished speaking, she hung up the phone. She leaned against the car window with one hand and propped up her little face.

As expected... Miss Xiangzi, you are really planning to run away.

"This……"

After hanging up the phone, Hai Mingli sat down on the chair in frustration. This reversal was too fast, and he really couldn't react.

He was humming songs while opening the bar, and was thinking about teaching other new musicians, but Miss Xiangzi came over and said, "Mr. Hai, please let me join you."

Who can bear this?

"You want to perform with me, is this true?"

A female keyboard player and a male lead singer.

Are you doing Phoenix Legend here? !

After a long silence, the girl finally untied the knot in her heart. She stood up, covered her chest and shouted:

"Yes, Mr. Hai, I want to perform with you!"

The young girl Xiangzi was grateful to Hai Mingli from the bottom of her heart.

The girl didn't know that Hai Mingli had been her father for a while. Her earliest impression of Mr. Hai was when she came to Lezhicheng Bar alone to help her father pay off his debts.

Mr. Hai waved his hand and said, "No need to pay it back. As a student, you should study hard!"

He must be my father’s best friend, the girl thought.

In the life after their first meeting, Mr. Hai helped the girl countless times. He helped her with her work, the troubles with her father, and even helped her get into the band.

It can be said that if the abstract young man in front of her didn't mind, she could immediately change her words and call him brother.

But this guy... When it comes to feelings, the abstract young man is too slow to react. I guess if I take the initiative to bring it up, the other party will just say “Oh, okay, when will you come? Yes, I like you too.”

...Instead of changing the way they address each other and their relationship, the girl felt that the most important thing was to help Mr. Hai first and reduce his burden.

"I want to perform with you. You know, a solo guitar is very tiring. If I can replace some of the syllables with my keyboard, I believe it will be much easier for you!"

"At least...at least let me help you with the backing vocals and adjust the background music or something like that! It would be best if you could have a rest!"

As if she had been thinking for a long time, the girl said a lot of words in one breath, and finally revealed everything in her heart.

For the girl, this was the only thing her expertise could do to help Hai Mingli. Regardless of whether the young man agreed or not, the girl wanted to be stubborn.

"...?"

Hai Mingli scratched his head and said stupidly: "Is guitar solo difficult?"

"I think it's okay. Usually during a performance, it's over in the blink of an eye..."

He didn't understand the girl's deeper meaning, and didn't understand that the girl was trying to lighten his burden. From a purely musical perspective, he really thought that guitar solo was not difficult.

"Eh?"

Xiangzi looked up at the young man, his eyes revealing panic. Hey, what? Does this mean that he can't let me join?

I just wanted to help Mr. Hai, but... I was rejected by Mr. Hai?

When the girl opened her mouth to refute and tried to argue with Hai Mingli, Hai Mingli spoke:

"Actually, I think it's not impossible to have you."
