Anime, but you can win a prize by confessing your love

Ye Mu clasped his hands together and asked sincerely.

"What does Ye Jun think?"

"I had already planned it, but it feels a bit cheap to give it as a gift..."

He lowered his head and thought for a while, then told a few girls what had happened.

Let’s go back to the first day that Ye Mu and Xiao Boqi met. In that street park, he gave the latter a guitar pick as a meeting gift, but later Xiao Boqi returned it to him because he needed it when performing.

"That's what happened. I said I would give her another pick as compensation."

As the girls listened, a look of longing appeared on their faces.

The guitar pick runs through the entire process of their love, from acquaintance to understanding.

"how romantic!"

“Isn’t this good?”

Hongxia and Kita were a little envious.

"But the problem is still the same. It seems a bit cheap to be a gift. Even though Pochi doesn't say anything about her worries, it doesn't mean she won't have wild thoughts."

"Don't worry," Hong Xia patted Ye Mu's shoulder like an experienced person, "Even if you just give Pochi-chan a blank piece of paper, she will be very happy."

"You might even be invited to the birthday party in advance to help entertain friends or something like that."

That's not the case. Considering that little Bochi has a very small social circle, there would probably be only a few of them at the birthday party.

"What do you think of Ryo?"

Ye Mu looked at Liang who was thinking in silence.

"I was thinking, when we first met, you didn't give me a bass or money or anything like that, so you can give me one again on my next birthday."

Chapter 230: Hiroi Kikuri in a Sober State

Well, rather than being afraid that little Boqi would have wild thoughts, it would be more accurate to say that Ye Mu himself felt that just giving a guitar pick was a bit too simple.

And what Xiao Boqi really thinks is probably similar to what Hong Xia said.

Guitar picks are just guitar picks. Ye Mu also bought a small gift box, folded some paper cranes as a lining, and packed the guitar picks inside.

Little Boqi's amazing ability to understand social interactions is still functioning normally.

Not long after Ye Mu finished making the gifts, everyone who had finished their work and were preparing to go home received a high-end invitation from her.

I opened it with confusion but expectation, and sure enough, she had done something else.

"Dear... Your Excellency, we will hold a birthday ceremony for Goto Ichiri on the evening of February 2st... in Kanazawa District, Yokohama..."

The red silk cover and large gold-plated characters make people feel like trembling all over even when they hold it in their hands - the trembling of trying not to smile.

As expected, this kind of invitation method was also what Xiao Boqi saw on TV. He thought it was very formal, but he had no experience, so he learned to make a few.

After the band ended, a few people could still hold back, but on the other side, Hiroi Kikuri's exaggerated laughter could be heard.

"Hahahahaha...Pochi-chan you're so cute...Wow, I'm so touched. The last time I received an invitation to a birthday party was ten years ago."

As she laughed, she started to cry. Drunk people have hard time controlling their emotions, and it made people worry whether she would behave like this at her birthday party.

The result was naturally that he was beaten up by the store manager's iron fist.

"If you're going to visit Pochi's house, you have to be on time. Also, you're not allowed to drink alcohol the day before!"

The store manager and PA-chan also received an invitation, but they were embarrassed to approach the Goto couple, so they declined and asked Hongxia to attend on their behalf.

"That's right, Pochi-chan, you have to be careful. Hiroi-san has a habit of smashing things when she's drunk. If I smell alcohol on her, I'll kick her out for you!"

As for this guy who comes to Ijichi's house from time to time to use the bathroom, Hongxia can be said to be quite experienced in dealing with Hiroi Kikuri.

"Eh? Xiao Hongxia, how could you be like this? I held you in my arms when you were a child!"

Thus, Hiroi Kikuri was once again struck by Nijixia's iron fist.

…………

When Ye Mu saw Hiroi Kikuri again, it was already Xiao Boqi's birthday.

"Sister Hiroi said she couldn't find Goto's house. Who can pick her up?"

Hongxia was helping the Goto couple who were cooking, and Kita was chatting with Pochi, so neither of them was free, and as for Xiliang, he might even get lost.

So the task of picking up Hiroi Kikuri fell on Ye Mu.

After finding the location that Hiroi Kikuri had relayed to Hong Xia, Ye Mu found Hiroi Kikuri carrying a bag in front of a convenience store.

"Ah, little brother, you're here!"

Hiroi Kikuri stood there coquettishly, looking around uneasily. When she saw Ye Mu coming, she felt embarrassed but relieved at the same time.

Wait, is this still the alcoholic sister who gives the audience the middle finger and squints her eyes all the time except when singing?

She opened her rose-colored eyes, which were the same color as her hair. Her single ponytail was carefully combed and lay flat on the side of her shoulder. Her whole temperament seemed restrained and gentle.

Ye Mu took a deep breath and stood two meters away from her.

"Who are you? Where is my Hiroi sister?"

Of course Hiroi Kikuri knew that Ye Mu was teasing her. If she was drunk, she would definitely walk up to Ye Mu and put her arm around his shoulders.

But now he said nothing, just lowered his head and walked slowly to Ye Mu.

Exactly the same as in the original.

Hiroi Kikuri was the same as Pochi before she learned to drink, and she started drinking to improve her socially anxious personality. Even now, when she is sober, she seems much more restrained.

Seeing that she was unwilling to pay attention to him, Ye Mu had no choice but to raise his feet, and she followed him. She was also similar to Xiao Bochi, who liked to walk behind others one step at a time.

"What gift did Sister Hiroi bring for Little Pochi?"

Ye Mu asked casually as he walked.

She lifted the bag in her hands.

“The same overdrive pedal that my band’s guitarist likes to use.”

Ye Mu had seen this pedal in a musical instrument store before. The price after tax was about 4500 yen. It seemed that she could save money even when she was not drunk. She finally looked like the lead singer of a famous band.

"not bad."

"Ah."

After Hiroi Kikuri gave a brief answer, she stopped talking and just followed him to Goto's house.

Goto Jiri, who was there to welcome the ambassadors, moved a small stool and sat at the door. When he saw the two people coming, he quickly stood up and ran forward to give Hiroi Kikuri a welcoming hug.

"Welcome~ I don't know you, but you are also my sister's friend, right? She must have caused you a lot of trouble, please forgive me."

What a good, sensible child!

Because of the height difference, the pink-haired little loli could only reach Hiroi Kikuri's lower waist with her outstretched arms, so now her whole body seemed to be hanging on Hiroi Kikuri's thighs.

The alcoholic sister instantly showed an expression of being healed, and gently touched Goto Jiri's head with her trembling hands.

In the living room, Kita and Ryo were sitting on either side of Pochi, and the three of them were discussing going out for a trip during the spring break.

The three of them walked into the living room, and Little Pochi stood up and took the gift from Hiroi Kikuri.

“The overdrive pedal is useful when playing more powerful songs.”

Speaking of rock, Hiroi Kikuri finally showed some of her usual self, and even her volume was much louder.

"Thank you, I like it very much...but isn't it a little too expensive?"

Hiroi Kikuri didn't wrap the gift in a box. She took the gift and took a look at it, feeling surprised but also a little scared.

After all, considering that the alcoholic sister is usually poor and sleeps on the streets, it doesn't look like she has the money to buy such things.

Could it be that he took the opportunity to rob while he was sober?

In her mind, she had already imagined the scene of Hiroi Kikuri, taking advantage of the moonlight, raising the bottle of wine high in her hand, smashing the window, and then walking away with the effects pedal.

Pochi's worried expression was written on her face. After realizing what she was thinking, Hiroi Kikuri blushed:

"Really? Has my status in everyone's eyes become so low?"

The other three nodded with assurance.

This is the shy expression of Sister Hiroi, who is always carefree. It's rare!

Fortunately, she glanced at little Pochi and found a way to change the subject in time.

"But speaking of which, Pochi-chan, why don't you change into something nicer? After all, today is your 17th birthday."

Everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to Xiao Boqi.

The pink-haired girl was, as always, wearing a tacky pink tracksuit, no different from usual.

"Eh? I don't think I need to change clothes or anything like that...right?"

Chapter 231 Memories

At the corner of the stairs on the second floor of the Goto family's home, a young girl was being pushed by a young boy, hesitantly taking small steps forward.

The girl has a pair of lovely big blue eyes. The dress she wears not only outlines her beautiful waist but is not too tight, showing her youth and vitality.

"Senior, is there really nothing wrong with my outfit?"

Standing on the top step of the second floor stairs, the noisy sounds of the crowd below reached the girl's ears.

The girl asked weakly, grabbing the hem of her skirt tightly with her hands and pulling it down desperately.

Ye Mu was a little helpless. She looked through a bunch of skirts. Little Bochi picked the one with the longest hem that reached her calves, but even so she decided to keep cool and couldn't move her legs.

"Don't worry, it's really cute and everyone can't wait to see it."

Despite such comfort, the latter was still quite reluctant. He hid behind Ye Mu and let Ye Mu walk in front before he reluctantly went downstairs and came to the dining table.

The dishes on the table have been placed in a variety of places, but it is obvious that in order to cater to the tastes of young people, the Goto couple have tried their best to focus on fried foods and drinks.

Coincidentally, the two people who walked to the table met Hongxia who had just put the fried chicken on the table. The latter grinned wickedly, quickly went around behind them, and grabbed Xiao Bochi's shoulder.

"I caught Pochi-chan...Pochi-chan is so cute! Why don't you usually wear this to school?"

Without saying anything, Hongxia pushed little Pochi to the living room and started shouting loudly, attracting the attention of Ryo and Hiroi Kikuri who were discussing bass, as well as Kita who was listening.

It’s really cute!

They were stunned at first, then dragged little Pochi to the middle of the group, and while chattering, they began to help little Pochi tidy up his appearance.

Kita actually brought a curling iron and a comb with her, and Hongxia didn't go to the kitchen anymore, but helped Pochi put on makeup.

"Everyone, it doesn't have to be like this."

"Ichiri-chan is the birthday girl today, so of course she has to be cute!"

Little Bochi's weak voice of resistance was instantly drowned out by the girls' booing.

…………

When it was time for dinner, the Goto couple, who had just finished working in the kitchen, couldn't believe that the girl sitting across the table was actually their former dark and socially anxious daughter.

The soft pink long hair was divided into two strands and tied into two ponytails behind the back. The thick bangs were slightly curled up by the curling iron, completely revealing the long eyelashes above the little Bochi's blue eyes.

The makeup on her face is not heavy. To use Hongxia's praise just now, "Pochi-chan's face actually doesn't need any makeup at all." She only put a thin layer of lipstick on her lips, making little Pochi look more pure.

The weak little Pochi lowered his head, his long eyelashes fluttering constantly, and his pitiful appearance made Goto Jiri stunned.

"I didn't expect that my sister is still so charming after dressing up."

After a moment of silence, tears suddenly flowed from Goto Naoki's expressionless face.

"It's been 17 years. This is the birthday party I have had the most friends with in 17 years! I must record this moment!"

He took out his cell phone, stood at the outermost edge and pointed the camera at everyone.

No one minded, but felt more sympathetic towards Xiao Boqi.

There was no discussion, but everyone stood up and surrounded the protagonist, Xiao Boqi, in the center.

Ye Mu stood up, bent down and hugged little Pochi from behind. After hesitating for a moment, Liang decided to move the stool, and he and Kita held up little Pochi's cheeks on the left and right.

Hongxia showed a gentle smile and stood with Hiroi Kikuri, who was a little afraid to look at the camera. Next to them were Goto Michiyo and Goto Jiri.
