This sentence seems to be just a perfunctory one, but the only information in this sentence is to confirm that Aine is playing in a band. However, Qing is in the band, so this should not need to be confirmed. So why did Qing say this? Aine can easily associate it with the oath between her and Qing to forget everything, and the delicate situation between the two in the band.

As expected, Aine was stunned for a moment when she heard Qing's casual words. She mentioned the band just to give a reason to recommend the song. But then she immediately guessed Qing's thoughts and quickly followed up with Qing's words: "Yes, but it seems that it has just been formed. In fact, I still want to continue recruiting people."

Seeing that Aine was able to pick up the topic so quickly, Qing smiled happily. However, Qing was not in a hurry to push the topic forward. After selecting the song, he put the song machine back on the table and responded indifferently: "Is that so? That's great."

That's right, Qing wanted to hook up with Aiyin. Not to mention that it was Aiyin who invited her to join the band first. Although she agreed without hesitation at that time, Qing would not rush to apply to join the band if she had to do it again. Qing has not forgotten how Aiyin asked her to take the initiative to invite her to buy a guitar together. Now the situation has reversed.

It can only be said that those who are favored are fearless. Now Aiyin's mind is indeed full of the other person just like Qing did back then. She began to doubt whether she had misunderstood Qing's meaning just now. In fact, Qing was just talking casually just now, and there was no special deep meaning.

But regardless of whether Qing meant that or not, after realizing the awkward situation the two of them were in in the band, Aiyin had to find a way to solve this problem, so the topic of the band had to continue.

However, in order to confirm whether Qing thought the same as her, Aiyin asked tentatively: "Qingqing, you have such a good temperament, it seems that you are very suitable for playing in a band. I wonder if you are playing in a band?"

Aiyin's words were equivalent to telling Qing clearly that her setting was to pretend not to know that Qing was in the band, and it all depended on Qing's attitude.

Qing's attitude was very ambiguous. He held his chin with one hand as if thinking, and dragged out the end of his words: "Well, am I playing in a band? I'm not sure..."

Seeing Qing's hypocritical look, Aiyin immediately realized that Qing was deliberately keeping her hanging, and couldn't help but puff up her cheeks in dissatisfaction, and put her hands on Qing's body. She originally wanted to pinch Qing's soft flesh to avenge Qing's bad taste, but she gave up when she thought of the injuries on Qing's body.

After taking a deep breath and calming down, Aiyin smiled as usual and said, "If Qingqing doesn't have a band, would you like to consider joining our band? Even if you're a novice, it's fine. The purpose of our band is for everyone to have fun playing in a band together."

Aiyin directly stated the technical level requirements for the people she was looking for and the general direction of the band, and also closed Qing's space for pulling in advance to avoid being pulled by Qing again... Although Qing who was throwing a temper was also cute in a different way, the feeling of being controlled still made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Qing still kept his chin in his hand while thinking, and glanced at Aine with the corner of his eyes, and said indifferently: "Actually, I'm not really interested in bands or anything like that..."

Aiyin's heart tightened after hearing Qing's words, and she thought: Could it be that Qing joined the band before because of an unspeakable reason, and now he wants to quit the band by resetting our relationship?

Thinking of this, Aiyin couldn't help but get nervous. Qing also noticed this, so he put away his joking thoughts and said, "But it's true that I haven't been in a band much before, so I don't even have an instrument now."

Hearing that Qing finally took over her role, Aiyin was relieved, and then she came to her senses quickly. Qing suddenly mentioned that she didn't have a musical instrument. Combined with the fact that they had agreed to go to the music store together tomorrow, but Aiyin was a little torn because they wanted to forget everything, Aiyin seemed to suddenly understand why Qing suddenly appeared here today.

At this time, the lyrics playing in the box had reached the most exciting chorus. In order to let Aiyin hear her words clearly, Qing put her head close to Aiyin's ear again and said playfully: "So, Aiyin, if you can promise me that you will go to the music store with me tomorrow to choose instruments, I will agree to join your band."

A familiar feeling jumped out of the dead memory. Once, Qing also leaned close to Aine's ear and said "I love you" in order to avenge Aine's prank. Aine subconsciously rubbed her ears, which were still hot and burning.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. After all, after realizing that Qing came here today because she didn't want to give up the promise she made, and after singing "SecretBase~All You Gave Me~" Qing's comment: Even if you forget the promise, you still have to stick to it. How can this not make the girl blush?

This is the ending that a fairy tale should have, which is exciting and full of beautiful fantasies. And this fairy-tale scene is happening right in front of her, so Aine must also give this fairy tale a happy ending.

Aiyin also put her cherry lips close to Qing's ear and said softly but firmly: "I do."

After saying that, Aiyin retracted her head and stared at Qing Moran in silence. Under the dim and colorful lights of the KTV, both of their faces were slightly red as if they had drunk alcohol. However, this time, the two people who met for the first time did not avoid each other's sight because of shyness, but kept looking into each other's eyes, eagerly feeling the other's existence and recognition of themselves.

At the end of a song, the students in the box sang the exciting song to their heart's content, and the neon lights gradually calmed down their flashing colors. Before the next song started, everyone took a short break, some put down their microphones and picked up their drinks to drink, some chatted and joked, and some took the opportunity to go to the bathroom.

Qing and Aine had already stopped looking at each other, but in the gap when no one was paying attention, they had already clasped their hands together without knowing when.

Chapter 68: Holding hands, mini-games, and separation.

Yanagisawa Aoki has always been a person who values efficiency, so after achieving the purpose of coming here today, she had already begun to consider retreating, even though she was still holding Aine's hand at the time.

If staying here could help him and Aine to continue their relationship, Qing wouldn't mind staying here, but it was a pity that there were more than a dozen other classmates here, and they had to hold hands secretly between the two of them, let alone more intimate behavior.

But it doesn't seem so good to just run away after flirting like this, and Aine is still holding Qing's hand, so it might not be easy for Qing to leave, so he has to let Aine's hand go first.

However... Qing glanced at the two people's tightly clasped hands, feeling the warmth coming from the other's palms, just like eating tender hot tofu that melts in the mouth, and then the warmth and fragrance wrap around his whole body from the touch to the surface. Even without chewing carefully, it makes people linger for a long time, wanting to feel more.

You can feel the pressure from the other person's tightness through the fingers, and even have a feeling that you can feel the other person's heartbeat and pulse. As long as one of you makes the slightest movement, you will know the other person's movements through the changes in the pressure between the fingers.

The fingertips moved restlessly on the thin and smooth back of each other's hands. The two who had no experience in holding hands wanted to adjust to a suitable position, but they kept touching each other's knuckles, which made them move back and forth even more awkwardly.

Hmm... Let's wait a little longer before talking about leaving, just a little while...

The melody of the next song sounded, and everyone's attention was once again drawn to the MV on the big screen. However, a pair of friends who hit it off at first sight did not stare at each other again when no one else was paying attention. They looked at the big screen like everyone else, but seemed a little absent-minded.

Only halfway through the song, Qing woke up from indulging in the girl's soft and fragrant hands, not because her reason overcame her desire, but because her palms were sweating from the first time she held hands with a girl so immersingly. If she didn't let go, their palms would probably become sticky, which would ruin their experience of holding hands. What if Aine didn't want to hold hands with her again in the future?

Thinking of this, Qing pulled at her hand that was held, but was unable to pull it out of Ain's hand. Qing turned her head and glanced at Ain, who was still looking at the big screen, as if nothing had happened. However, Qing clearly felt the pressure between her fingers increase, and it was obvious that Ain was holding her hand even tighter.

Qing looked at Aiyin helplessly. Although a youthful and cute girl-style song was playing in the box at this time, a lyrical song appeared in Qing's mind: Why are your hands so warm / I beg you / Please don't let go from now on...

After singing this line, the important person who was full of pride turned around and ran away...

Why do we have to play "Haruhi Shadow"?

Although it seemed not good to have another woman's voice appear in his mind when holding hands with Aine, thanks to Deng, Su Shi and the friendly appearance of Teacher Daixiang, Qing woke up from his confused and helpless mood and the increasingly hot warmth coming from his palm.

Qing looked around and suddenly saw the half-cup of lemonade on the table in front of Aiyin. She suddenly had an idea and pulled Aiyin's hand and said to her: "Aiyin, I came in a hurry and haven't had a sip of water yet. Now I'm going to get a drink from the beverage machine. Do you want me to pour you a drink as well?"

There was no intention in Qing's words for Aine to let go, nor did he mention the ambiguous act of their interlocking fingers. Instead, he kindly offered to help Aine, and what he said was also an objective fact, which could greatly help Aine let down her guard. With Aine's empathy, there was no reason for her to hold on to Qing's hand.

Hearing this, Aiyin subconsciously glanced at Qing's dry lips, then shifted her gaze to the half cup of lemonade that Qing was looking at. After her throat moved for a moment, she unnoticedly let go of Qing's hand, picked up the cup of lemonade and held it up with both hands. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "I just happen to have some left in my cup. If you don't mind, would you like to drink it?"

Qing was shocked by Aine's bold words. You know, there are many classmates around now. If they find out that Aine and I are using the same cup, what will they think of our relationship? Qing looked around nervously at the classmates around him, and after finding that no one was paying attention to them, he said: "Forget it, I'll just go get another cup. If you don't need me to refill your drink, I'll go directly."

After saying that, Qing wanted to get up, but Aiyin pulled her sleeve and said, "Wait a minute."

Then Aine picked up the cup, tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and drank the lemonade in the cup in one gulp, pretending to be ready to die. The sour taste of the lemon instantly passed through Aine's tongue and directly reached her brain, causing her brain to tremble uncontrollably.

Aiyin tightly grasped the quilt, stuck out her tongue and made a "crunch" sound, then endured the discomfort caused by the sour taste of lemon, looked up at Qing and said: "I'll go with you."

Qing held Ain's shoulders with a somewhat amused look, snatched the water cup from Ain's hand, looked at Ain who was still struggling with the sour taste with gentle eyes, and said: "Just sit here and wait for me, I will be back."

After saying that, Qing took Ain's water cup and left the box. She didn't ask Ain what kind of drink she wanted. Just like some lost memory, Qing poured drinks for others without caring whether they liked it or not.

And Aine pressed her temples to suppress the cold sour taste. After coming to her senses, Aine felt that a large amount of saliva was produced in her originally sour mouth and tongue, and it actually had a sweet feeling that made people linger.

The noise of Qing leaving her seat finally attracted the attention of the classmates around her. Seeing Aine's expression of sadness that made her about to cry, they came over and asked curiously: "Aine, are you okay? What happened? You look miserable."

Aiyin recovered her breath, waved to her classmates who were concerned about her, and said with a wry smile: "Sure enough, you can't drink too much lemonade in one go."

"Ah, that's true."

Aiyin smacked her lips, feeling the sweet taste left in her mouth after the sour taste, and said, "But the lemonade is still delicious."

The classmate tilted his head, but still said in agreement: "Well, just drink it slowly."

Then the classmate looked towards the door, and after seeing that Qing had not returned, he leaned close to Ain and asked in a low voice: "Little Ain, tell me the truth, what is your relationship with Qing now?"

When Aiyin heard this classmate gossiping about her and Qing's relationship, she was choked by the excessive saliva and coughed violently a few times. After coughing, she pretended to be calm and asked back: "Why do you ask that?"

"Because it's obvious that Qing's attitude towards you is completely different from his attitude towards us. You two were whispering just now, right? And I guess Qing came here today just for you."

No matter what, Qing is a popular person in the class. Even if the classmates just didn't care about Qing's arrival and continued to sing happily, there must be someone who secretly noticed Qing's presence. It's just that when Qing was here, they didn't dare to tease and expose it. Now that only Aine is here, they dare to gossip with Aine.

"Um, Qingqing and I are just friends... and band mates."

Apparently, the previous question was easier to answer than the one the classmate just asked, so Aine directly answered the previous question.

"Hmm? Is that really all?"

The classmate looked at Aine suspiciously.

Aiyin felt a little guilty as she put the hand that she had just held with Qing in her pocket. There was still some wet sweat on her palm. Aiyin didn't know whether it was her own sweat or Qing's, because when they were holding hands just now, she felt that Qing's hand was so warm that it made her sweat.

Ain looked around and finally locked her sight on the red, green and yellow trio. At this time, they were also playing together. Ain motioned the classmates around her to look at them and said, "Look, aren't Xiaowu and the others also good friends and bandmates? They are even closer than Qing and I are."

"Well, having said that..."

The classmate hesitated to speak. She felt that there was a big difference between Ai and Qing and the red, green and yellow trio. When she saw Ai and Qing getting along, she sometimes felt an ambiguous feeling. But the feeling could not be used as a theoretical basis to torture Ai. It was like in Werewolf, you could clearly tell that the other person was a wolf by your sense of hearing, but you could not use this alone to call him a wolf.

At this moment, the door of the box was pushed open, and Qing came in with two glasses of lemonade. Seeing this, the classmate who had just asked Ain stopped asking questions tactfully and even moved his butt slightly to give Ain more space.

When Qing came over, Aiyin stopped looking at the others and turned her head to look at Qing. Her gray-blue eyes seemed to reflect a bright light like gems. Until Qing walked over and sat down beside her, Aiyin's gaze always followed Qing's position.

Qing also noticed Aine’s following gaze, and after exchanging glances with Aine, he couldn’t help but smile, but then he looked away because he had to be careful not to spill the drink in his hand.

However, this scene was noticed by the classmate who was quietly paying attention to Aiqing. Looking at Qing's gentle smile that was like a melting iceberg, and Aiyin's eyes that seemed to be pulling a thread when she looked at Qing, she didn't believe that the two of them didn't have an affair.

After Qing sat down, he brought two glasses of lemonade to Ain and said with a playful smile: "Ain, guess which one is yours?"

Since the water cups used in this store are all uniform glass cups, and both cups contain the same lemonade, at first glance it is indeed impossible to tell which cup Aine drank.

Aiyin pouted and said in a coquettish tone: "It's boring, playing this kind of trick. If I make the wrong choice, will you still let me make the mistake?"

However, Qing did not answer Aine's question, but just looked at her with a smile without saying anything. The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. Seeing Qing's attitude that seemed to be both tacit and ignoring, Aine felt a little embarrassed for some reason. She lowered her head to avoid Qing's sight and looked at the two glasses of lemonade in Qing's hands.

Aine's shadow was reflected on the lemon yellow wall of the glass, as well as the light from the ceiling... and the reflection of the classmates who were peeking at them. Aine became even more embarrassed after realizing that someone was peeking at them, and even her originally lazy sitting posture became a little straighter.

"Want me to give you a hint?"

Qing's voice sounded in front of Aiyin, reminding her that she must make a choice quickly.

"Well, that's not necessary."

Aine refused. It wasn't because she was embarrassed, but because she had already figured out which cup was hers. Although the two cups looked the same, Qing didn't fill them up very full, so the marks on the rim of the cup that Aine had used were still visible, and Aine could easily tell them apart.

But should I choose the correct answer? Aiyin wanted to know if Qing would tell her the correct answer or give her another glass of lemonade if she chose the wrong one. This was a question Aiyin would not normally think about, but Qing was particularly fond of playing pranks today, which made her think a lot.

However, Aine once again saw the reflection of her classmates peeking at them on the wall of the cup, and finally chose the right one.

After Aine made her choice, Qing didn't say anything. He just smiled and handed the glass of lemonade she chose to her. After Aine took the glass, she didn't say much. She just took a sip and put it on the table.

However, what they didn't know was that the classmates who were silently observing them had a big question mark in their hearts at this moment. Qing didn't seem to say whether Aine guessed it right, but she just said it? Or was it that whether the answer was correct or not was not important to them at all?

At this time, Qing also put down another glass of lemonade on the table, sat up straight, leaned towards Aiyin, and said softly: "I will be back soon."

When Aiyin heard Qing say something unexpected, she looked at him in surprise and asked, "Are you going back so soon? You've only been here for a short time, right?"

Although Ain knew that Qing didn't come here to play with other people in the class, she was still a little surprised that he left right after finishing his business. During the whole process, Qing had almost only come into contact with Ain. This was almost like telling the classmates in the class that he didn't want to act anymore and he came here just for Ain.

Qing nodded and said, "I still have to go to work later."

Hearing this, Aiyin no longer tried to dissuade Qing, but just asked: "Didn't you just order a song? Why don't you want to sing it?"

Qing said casually: "Thank you for singing for me."

"Ugh?"

Aine looked a little reluctant.

"Anyway, it's the song you recommended, and the band will practice it, so just consider it as familiarity with the song."

"Oh, that's okay."

After Qing's explanation, Aine did not refuse. It seemed that she was not that reluctant to sing for Qing.

"Is it okay for you to go home alone today?"

Aoki saw that Aine had already taken care of it, so he stopped approaching Aine and returned to a normal distance and asked casually.

"It's normal for me to go home alone, okay."

Aiyin glared at Qing unhappily. She naturally knew that Qing was making fun of him for sending her home before.

Qing did not continue teasing Aiyin, but waved his hand and said, "Well, I'm leaving now, see you tomorrow. By the way, I haven't had the other glass of lemonade yet, you can have that too."

"I know, see you tomorrow."

Aine also waved her hand in response.

Not long after Qing sat down, he stood up again and walked out the door, causing other students to ask curiously: "Qing, where are you going?"

Qing said casually: "Oh, I'm going to the toilet."

After saying that, Qing really went to the bathroom, but after coming out of the bathroom, she left the box directly.

And the classmate who witnessed the whole process suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu about the conversation between Qing and Aine, as if her father had a similar conversation with her mother when he had some temporary work to do.

Chapter 69: Personality, phone call, problem solving.

Sanada Kikuko is a girl who goes with the flow, but she doesn't like to go with the flow. She has never been interested in the topics that other girls like to talk about. But if she doesn't follow the girls' topics, she will feel like she is being excluded, so she has been forcing herself to follow the "air".

It was not until she entered high school that a girl with a very unique personality came into Kikuko's sight. That girl could clearly express to others that she was not interested in their topics. She always maintained her own pace and would not give in because of other people's requests or the atmosphere.

As expected, the girl who always did her own thing didn't make any friends, but Kikuko didn't understand. The girl was always alone, so why did she look so contented?

Even later, her reputation in the class was reversed, because her self-willed behavior did not affect others, but only made others not affect herself. Many people envied and even admired this girl who could stick to her own personality in a crowd of people who followed the crowd, because she did what they sometimes wanted to do but did not dare to do, and Kikuko was one of them.

This girl is Liu Zeqing.

Kikuko wanted to express herself freely and unfettered like Qing, but she could never get rid of the trend. The more she wanted, the more she was restrained. Then she could only turn her unwillingness into worship for Qing. Then, as always, she yearned for Qing, but did not dare to approach Qing. Then she could only come up with various unrealistic plans to try to get closer to Qing.

After Qing came to the KTV box today, Kikuko had been observing Qing, but Qing today surprised her.

It turns out that Qing can also change her pace for others, it turns out that Qing can also chat with others like a little girl, it turns out that Qing can also show that kind of bewildered but unable to extricate herself expression...

The image of Qing in Kikuko's heart who values self-expression, doesn't care about other people's eyes, acts decisively, elegantly and handsomely, seems to be severely shaken. Just now when Qing was with Aine, all the halo around her disappeared, and she was just like an ordinary girl of the same age.

But Qing shouldn't be like this. This kind of Qing is not "Lord Yanagisawa" at all...
