Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

Are all the kids nowadays so scary? Ruomai complained in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the time when he made the deal with Qingchuan Xiang.

Chapter 333 Reaching Consensus

After sighing in his heart about how precocious children are nowadays, Ruomai remained calm on the surface. He casually picked up the coffee he had brought with him and took a sip.

"Then why did you choose me?" Ruomai asked calmly. Even though Xiangzi saw through her ambitions and her desire to change the account, the decision of whether to agree or not was still hers. "Ms. Xiangzi, like Xiao Qingchuan, should have just been a high school student not too long ago. Even if she wanted to form a band, she shouldn't have asked an adult like me, right?"

"First of all, Miss Miao Meng should also know that people nowadays are talking about the era of big 'girl' bands. Rather than me needing to find people of my age to form a band, it is Miss Miao Meng who has more needs in this regard." Xiangzi also had a calm expression, and was not at all impatient because of Ruomai's unclear attitude.

"That's too much! Making fun of a girl's age is a direct personal attack!" Ruomai shamelessly called himself a girl.

"I'm sorry, I made a mistake." Xiangzi smiled and skipped over this part, and continued,

"Secondly, my goal isn't to form a play band. It's to debut as a professional band in the future."

Ruomai couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and her sunglasses couldn't hide her slightly furrowed brows.

As for a professional band, even if Ruomai herself wanted to take advantage of the popularity of the big band Girls' Generation, she didn't think much about it. If she wanted to ride on the popularity, Ruomai herself only needed to perform a "playing house" performance. If Ruomai really had to focus on developing the band and give up her own self-media account, she would definitely not be happy.

For most things, amateur and professional life are two completely different worlds. Apart from anything else, being in a band as a profession means committing your entire life to it. Financial gain is the most ruthless thing, and you won't talk about the romantic life of a band.

And now a high school student comes up to me and says he wants to form a professional band with me? Any normal adult would first think it's a naive child's statement.

But Ruomai was ready to listen to Xiangzi's words. Besides the fact that there was no harm in hearing his thoughts, another reason was that she felt that a calm and thoughtful guy like Xiangzi would not talk about such things without considering anything.

Furthermore, Ruomai saw Xiangzi's financial situation as difficult. Children from poor families often have to grow up early, and Ruomai knew this from experience.

What Xiangzi said just now was the answer to Ruomai's second question. The following is the reason why she came to find Ruomai:

"And I chose Miss Meow Meng because of her looks and numbers."

"Oh, I like what you said." After immediately understanding what Xiangzi meant, Ruomai exclaimed softly, and his heart became more certain of Xiangzi's judgment just made. This kid was indeed serious.

Because what she said was very practical.

If Xiangzi said something about dreams, passion, etc., then Ruomai wouldn't have to listen to the rest.

"Also," Xiangzi said, before he finished explaining his reasons, "Miss Miao Meng, you are ambidextrous, right? This makes your drumming style very unique and looks gorgeous and stunning, although your drumming skills still need to be honed."

She even watched my livestream, showing she was well prepared. Ruomai shifted the position of her legs, which were stacked one on top of the other, to a more comfortable sitting position.

Even as an adult, I felt that Xiangzi's attitude was very serious, but now was the official start of the negotiation of this transaction.

As mentioned earlier, even if Xiangzi guessed all of Ruomai's thoughts, as the proposer of the plan and the one who extended the invitation to Ruomai, the initiative was always on Ruomai's side.

"So, what about the feasibility of this plan?" Ruomai took off his sunglasses, and his purple eyes began to look seriously at Xiangzi. "High school classmate Xiangzi, is there any way to really form a band that can debut and attract everyone?"

"Please look at this."

Xiangzi took out his cell phone and when he unlocked the screen, a photo that had been prepared long ago appeared on the table in front of Ruomai.

Ruomai looked closely at the photo. It showed two girls in school uniforms, one holding a guitar and standing with another. The background seemed to be a practice room. The girl standing there was Xiangzi, who was standing in front of him at that moment, and the other person...

"Isn't this Wakaba Mutsu...? She's the daughter of actress Mori Minami, right?"

Although it was said in a questioning tone, Ruomai, who has always been paying attention to various hot topics, could not fail to recognize the daughter of this popular artist. Although not as good as Qingchuan, she is also the daughter of a well-known star.

Ruomai was puzzled by the fact that he actually saw Ruoye Mu at this time. In this case, could it be that...

"She's a member of the band." Xiangzi calmly said what Ruomai was thinking, even saying, "The lead singer of the band will be Chuhua from Sumimi."

"Wait, are you serious?"

Ruomai can no longer maintain the calm appearance he had at the beginning. If what Xiangzi said is true, then this band has already been successful in terms of public opinion alone.

"How can you..." Ruomai couldn't hide his curiosity and asked anxiously, but halfway through, he suddenly remembered his last name when Xiangzi introduced himself when he just arrived.

No way…? If this was really that Toyokawa, that Toyokawa family with ties to various industries, undoubtedly including various investments in the entertainment industry, then how could this Shoko look so… poor?

This time it was Xiangzi's turn to be a little conflicted and hesitant, but not long after, he let out a sigh, as if he had made up his mind.

"My name is Toyokawa Shoko. Can you believe me, Miss Meowen?"

Xiangzi made this decision after much deliberation. She had long ago decided that if she wanted to be able to get along with Xiaoxiang with peace of mind, the first thing she had to do was reduce her dependence on her. After much deliberation, she realized that as a high school student, there was little she could do without the Toyokawa name.

Although Xiangzi still insisted on reaching certain "conditions" with his family and not going back completely, he eventually returned to this road.

There is still some struggle in my heart, but the most important thing I have to do now is to move forward.

"Yutiansi..." Ruomai didn't need to worry anymore, "My name is Yutiansi Ruomai."

The meaning was clear: he had succeeded. Xiangzi breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip of the black tea that had just been delivered. It tasted particularly sweet.

After reaching a consensus, the atmosphere between the two suddenly became relaxed. They drank and chatted about random things. The relaxed Ruomai couldn't help but sigh:

"Oh, Miss Xiangzi, you are so capable yourself. There was no need for Xiao Qingchuan to say those things to me. It was totally unnecessary."

"What…?!"

Xiangzi realized something from Ruomai's words and frowned, "Ms. Yutenji, please explain what you just said to me in detail."

Chapter 334 Surrounded

In the agency where sumimi works, it was just break time for Chuhua and Mana. Mana went for a walk in some corner with her agent again, while Chuhua continued to rest in the practice room alone.

Ring bell…

Suddenly, Chuhua heard his cell phone ringing from his backpack in the corner of the room. He walked over, curious about who would call him at this time. It was impossible that Mana and her agent had caused trouble again in such a short time and were reported by other colleagues.

Then Chu Hua saw the caller’s name displayed on the phone screen was “Xiao Xiang”.

Without any hesitation, Chu Hua quickly took out his cell phone from his schoolbag, brushed the hair away from his ear with one hand, then put the phone to his ear and answered the call.

"Hey, Xiaoxiang, what's wrong?"

"Chuhua, I want to ask you something, tell me the truth."

Then Chuhua heard Xiangzi's somewhat hurried voice coming from the other side of the phone, in addition to some noisy voices and the whistling of wind as vehicles passed by.

Xiangzi is calling me from outside now. Did something happen to him? And Xiangzi really sounds anxious.

"Ask me, what's the matter?"

"Xiao Xiang, I mean Qingchuan Xiang, have they contacted you recently or in the past few months?"

"Yes, Xiaoxiang and Sumimi are now in a cooperative relationship. We will release a song together in the future, so Xiaoxiang came to the agency yesterday."

Yesterday? Xiangzi noticed this time. Qingchuan Xiang took a day off from school yesterday. Did he go to the office where Chuhua worked?

If Xiaoxiang went to Sumimi's office just for her own business, it would be fine. But now Xiangzi's heart is full of worries and bad premonitions.

"Did she go to the firm just to practice with you guys?"

"Huh?" Chu Hua was stunned for a moment. "Yeah, we all practiced together for an entire afternoon yesterday. Since the practice was good, we went straight to the studio to officially record. Our manager was very happy about it."

"So... did she say anything extra to your agent privately?" Xiangzi persisted, trying to think of all the things Qingchuan Xiang might have done behind his back.

"..." At this time, Chuhua had also realized what Xiangzi might be asking. Just yesterday, Qingchuan Xiang did not tell her agent directly, but she did tell Chuhua about a plan that would allow her and Xiangzi to perform on the same stage together in the name of "cooperation".

"Don't hide it from me, Chuhua, this is really important to me!" Chuhua's silence made Xiangzi realize something, and he raised his voice and emphasized.

"Xiao Xiang... told me a plan..."

After much hesitation, Chu Hua finally told it out. After all, if this plan was to be carried out, he would have to tell Xiangzi about it, so letting Xiangzi know about it shouldn't have too serious consequences... right?

After the presentation, Xiangzi listened to the plan proposed by Qingchuan Xiang on how to reasonably allow her and Xiangzi to perform as a band under the constraints of Chuhua's agency, and immediately judged that if Qingchuan Xiang was deeply involved in this plan, given her current "coincidental" deep cooperation with Sumimi and her good relationship with the agency, it would almost never fail.

"..."

"Xiao Xiang?"

"Thank you, Chuhua."

Xiangzi immediately hung up the phone with Chuhua. She was on her way to Qingchuan Bookstore. It was still early for work, but Xiangzi was hurrying onwards faster than ever, his hands busy as he made the next call.

"Hey?"

A dull and wooden voice came from the other end of the line. It was Xiangzi's childhood sweetheart, Wakaba Mutsu.

"Mu, it's me, Xiangzi."

"Well, what's wrong?" It had been a long time since Xiangzi had called, and at this hour, Mu was clearly puzzled. Xiangzi could imagine Mu's eyebrows raising ever so slightly, almost imperceptibly.

"Xiao Mu, tell me if Xiang has spoken to you recently."

"Yes." Xiao Mu said concisely, "The last time Su Shi and I went to Xiao Xiang's house."

"Did you mention anything about the band?"

"Is this Xiaoxiang's own band?"

"No…it's about my band."

"No."

No? Xiangzi didn't consider the possibility that Xiaomu would deceive him. The only possibility was that Qingchuan Xiang really hadn't told Xiaomu about this.

But that shouldn't be the case. Since Xiangdu was making preparations in this regard at Chuhua's place, and even earlier when Miss Yutiansi came to the bookstore, she must have thought that she would find Mulai to form a band together.

Telling Xiao Mu not to hang up the phone in a hurry, Xiangzi started thinking, not noticing that his brows were almost locked together at this moment, and his mentality became more and more anxious.

Xiang knew about her relationship with Xiaomu, which she had already shown during CRYCHIC. If Xiang hadn't found Xiaomu...

Because there is no need at all!

Xiangzi quickly figured it out. When she was talking to Yutenji just now, she directly showed the photo of herself and Xiaomu when showing what she had. This was because she was confident that as long as she asked Mu if he could join her band, Mu would definitely agree.

But the real problem for Xiaomu to be able to join the band is whether her parents will agree!

Not long ago, Qingchuan Xiang's mother, the lady who was so kind that even Mu's mother Mori Minami couldn't compare to her, brought little Mu to Qingchuan Bookstore, saying that she wanted to help Mu relax...

Just like Chuhua's side, as long as Qingchuan Xiang continues to use his identity as a guarantor, it is very likely that Mu's parents will agree.

"I understand. Thank you, Xiaomu."

After hanging up the phone, there was no other call to confirm, so Xiangzi put the phone back into his schoolbag and started to concentrate on his journey.

The chaotic thoughts in my mind can't stop.

The number of things that Qingchuan Xiang did behind his back far exceeded his imagination. Xiangzi even suspected that when he was thinking about the rumors about RiNG's bass mercenary yesterday, Xiang had already "helped" him find that person.

At this moment, Xiangzi recalled the words he had mentioned when he was talking to Qi Jin, Xiao Xiang's ex-girlfriend:

Qingchuan Xiang cannot distinguish emotions. No matter how she considers other people's emotions, the actions she takes in the end are ultimately based on what she thinks is the "correct" way, a way of action that is almost like wantonly manipulating the lives of others.

Chapter 335 Dead Water

In VA-11, Qingchuan Xiang happily took a seat behind the bar of his own shop, mixing various drinks for himself as he pleased without disturbing the work of other employees in the shop. This was also a compensation for having to carefully control even drinking water at school.

Xiangzi seems not to have arrived yet. What has she been doing?

While preparing the drink, Qingchuan Xiang's mind was not idle either. He was thinking freely, wondering what could have happened that made Xiangzi even skip the piano practice session that must have taken place every day without any accidents.

Soon, I will be able to answer Qingchuan Xiang in person.

The sound of the wind chimes on the door indicated that another guest had pushed the door open and walked into VA-11. When Qingchuan Xiang looked up, he saw that the person at the door was Xiangzi, whom he had just been thinking about.

Qingchuan Xiang was about to raise her hand to greet Xiangzi, but her intuition suddenly told her something was wrong. Just like fish in rivers and lakes, which, as if sensing a storm, would rise to the surface or even leap out of it before it hit, Qingchuan Xiang stared at Xiangzi's expressionless face, and strong warning signals kept popping up in her mind.

Qingchuan Xiang suppressed the uncomfortable feeling that felt like a constantly ringing alarm clock in his head, and tried to smile and greet Xiangzi, to see his reaction:

"Xiangzi, have you finished your work?"

"..."

However, Xiangzi did not answer, nor did he even raise his hand to wave to Qingchuan Xiang. In the uneasy silence, Xiangzi stared into Qingchuan Xiang's eyes all the way and walked to the front of the bar table and in front of Qingchuan Xiang.

"Um... Xiangzi?"

"Xiang, let's talk alone."

Something's wrong. It's disturbing. Qingchuan Xiang couldn't help but swallow. The sudden development made her a little nervous. She could only nod stiffly, then turned around and walked into the staff room behind VA-11 with Xiangzi.

When Qingchuan Xiang was halfway there, he still wanted to slow down his pace and buy some time to think about how to deal with the next thing. However, Xiangzi, who was still following behind him, walked up quickly, grabbed his hand, and dragged him into the staff room forcefully in front of the employees' surprised eyes, and locked the door with a click.

The room was only for two people, and the noise from the people in the store was blocked out. The quiet environment made people feel even more tense, and the air seemed so stagnant that it made people want to hold their breath.

Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi looked at each other, feeling a little guilty, thinking that their help to Xiangzi's father might have been discovered.

However, Xiangzi's reaction at this time was a bit strange. Although his tone and actions were a bit aggressive, his expression unexpectedly made Qingchuan Xiang feel that Xiangzi was not blinded by anger, but rather very calm.

"Xiang, I know everything you did."

"What are you referring to?"

Qingchuan Xiang's question left Xiangzi speechless for a moment. She really couldn't guarantee that what she had noticed now was the whole story. After all, she hadn't noticed any signs not long ago. If it weren't for Miss Yutenji's momentary emotion and letting it slip...

"Miss Miao Meng, Chu Hua, Xiao Mu... and even my father." Xiangzi told everything he knew. "There are so many things I have discovered already. Now, Xiang, maybe you can help me add some more."
