Congratulations, Sushi, you have been optimized by me.

Shoko Toyokawa was 100% sure that the family matters she and Chihiro had mentioned were probably already known to Su Shi.

When she thought of this, she felt extremely regretful and ashamed of her past weakness.

"Sister, please don't be like this... It's my fault. I shouldn't..."

"Can you please stop talking... please."

"Ah."

Seeing that the classmates around her were no longer looking at her with such curiosity, Toyokawa Shoko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, she closed her eyes and kept repeating a sentence in her heart:

'I have no emotions, and I will never be weak again.'

It was as if through constant psychological suggestion, she could really make herself become the kind of personality she wanted.

"Quiet, quiet, the teacher is here and you're still making noise?"

The first class in the afternoon was history class. After the male teacher walked into the classroom, Toyokawa Shoko finally relaxed a lot, because at least the annoying Chihiro would no longer talk to her.

But she seemed to have overestimated someone's bottom line.

Because Chihiro was sitting behind her, Shoko Toyokawa felt a little uneasy, so she sat upright with her legs as far back as possible during class.

Then she felt something touching her calf, and her pupils shrank as she realized what this "thing" was that touched her calf.

"what!"

No! How dare she? Stretch her legs out in front of her during class, then take off her slippers and tap her calves with her stocking-covered toes?!

He's truly a bad dropout! He has no respect for the classroom!

"Toyokawa-san, please tell me...is there something wrong with what I just said?"

"I... no, no, sorry, teacher... I was distracted."

"Then please pay attention to your class, Fengchuan, so as not to disturb other students next time."

Because Toyokawa Shoko's academic performance was very good, her sudden strange cry did not cause her history teacher, who was always difficult with students, to get angry with her.

However... Toyokawa Shoko will remember this grudge.

With a bang, just as Xiangzi sat down, she found a note thrown on her desk from behind.

When I opened it, it was a message from Chihiro.

[Xiaoxiang, I need your help with something. Can you teach me how to play the piano for a fee?]

You really don't have any shame at all, right?

[You're just wishful thinking. You'd better seek help from someone else.]

After writing this sentence, Xiangzi didn't care whether the person behind him could catch the paper ball. He just threw it back and didn't care anymore.

Anyway, it is impossible and absolutely unnecessary for Toyokawa Shoko to seek any help from Chihiro anymore.

She would never have a deeper conversation with this person again. Did he like to tease her? She would just treat it as a stray cat on the side of the road and endure it.

She believed that as long as she gradually distanced herself from the other party and let the other party know that she was no longer the easy-to-fool Xiangzi, Chihiro Tsuzuki would slowly let her go.

And besides your strong guitar skills and good acting skills, what else are you good at, Chihiro Tsuzuki?

Mu is also very good at playing the guitar. Even though she has no knowledge of stage acting, coming from a family of actors, perhaps Mu has a strong talent for acting?

In short, you, Chihiro Tsuzuki...are no longer needed by me, Xiangzi.

Mu is your superior replacement.

Chapter 193 Xiangzi: I am very confident in the contract I drafted! (1/2)

No matter how difficult the time is, it will eventually come to an end.

When the bell rang, signaling the end of the last class in the afternoon, Shoko Toyokawa's mood improved a lot. After all, in some sense, the day began after school.

"Then Xiaoxiang, I'm going to go look for any fun clubs. Xiaoxiang, do you want to come with me?"

"…I'm busy, sorry."

"Then Xiaoxiang, just go and do your own thing." Chihiro Tsuzuki smiled slightly, and the look in her squinting eyes made Toyokawa Shoko very uncomfortable.

She always felt that if she wasn't paying attention to Chihiro Tsuzuki for a moment, she would make some evil plans against her without her knowledge.

But... this should just be an illusion.

Chihiro Tsuzuki, a girl who dropped out of school for unknown reasons and whose past stories she narrated are unknown to what extent they are true. The only thing that is certain about her is that she is the granddaughter of Tsuzuki Shifune.

She has no fundamental conflicts with her family, so she doesn't need to think about how to improve her life like herself.

Campus life, after-school clubs, and the band he formed with Li Xisushi and the others... these are the happiness that is within his reach for this person who once thought he could not obtain.

After packing her schoolbag, Shoko Toyokawa walked to the shoe cabinet and changed her shoes.

Her destination today is Star Wing Entertainment Co., Ltd. Although this company is not directly named after the Toyokawa Group, the majority of its shares are held by the Toyokawa Group.

Xiangzi is very clear that he currently has resources that ordinary people cannot get, but he also understands how difficult it is for him because of his grandfather in areas other than the resources themselves.

Their mujica project has a dedicated office, and although this project is under the Star Wing, it is independent of the entire company.

First of all, among the entire planning staff, there are agents, vocal and stage design teams, etc.

But it just exists and does some very basic work.

For example, in the band's music creation and stage design, these people will only execute according to their own ideas and will not take the initiative to create appropriate atmosphere for her.

Legal staff will help with the signing and review of contracts, but they will not tell you what kind of contract you should draft for the team members, nor will they tell you how to determine the specific profit sharing, rights and obligations, and several details.

The agent will help you with some business cooperation matters, but the agent will not control which notices you should accept and which you should not.

In short... everyone from top to bottom had a clear attitude, which was to support what her grandfather said when he last met her:

'If you want to prove that you can achieve anything you want on your own, without trusting anyone else to help you, then I'll give you that chance.

I can give you resources and absolute command, but you can make your own decisions and carry your childish ideas to the end.

“…It’s not a question of whether or not, it’s a question of what must be done.”

When she said this to herself, Shoko Toyokawa had already arrived at the company door.

She first put down her things and went to the locker room on the other side to change into her school uniform, then went to the Legal Department to submit a document, and only then did she finally arrive at the meeting room where everyone was already there.

"It's Xiangzi~" Yutenji Wakamu spoke first. She looked at Xiangzi, who was wearing the same clothes as the last time they met, and her eyelids twitched slightly. "Speaking of which... why do I feel cheated? How come we haven't met a single staff member in such a long time?"

"...We don't need them today."

"Toyokawa-san." Hachiman Kailing took a paper cup of water and asked calmly while drinking, "Is there something important that called us here today?"

"Well, today we're here to finalize the band's details and sign a contract with you all."

While writing songs last night, she also searched the Internet for information about the contract.

Unfortunately, she didn't find much information that convinced her... After all, the information on the Internet was too mixed and chaotic, and she alone couldn't confirm which profit-sharing methods were generally recognized as reasonable in the industry.

Xiangzi couldn't accept the fact that she encountered trouble right from the start, but she didn't intend to learn from those vampire companies and exploit their employees without any bottom line in the details of the profit distribution.

So the contract profit-sharing model she finally drafted was:

Performance and endorsement income: Party A 70%; Party B 30%

Product sales share: Party A 90%; Party B 10%

As for the code of conduct, Xiangzi didn't think too much about it. He just wrote down everything he could think of, such as "no dating", "no making inappropriate remarks in public", and "no tax evasion".

She filled in the rest of the details using the public artist contract, and with some liquidated damages, she felt it shouldn't be a big problem.

There was one thing that made her feel very uncomfortable. When Xiangzi handed the contract to the company's legal department, the other party's expression after reading it made her feel a little puzzled.

It's like...looking at a fool.

It must be because I gave too much money to the team members, so they thought I was a spendthrift young lady who spent money lavishly...

But Xiangzi didn't know that her share was indeed too favorable for a newcomer, but what really made the legal officer speechless was that this contract was too biased towards the artists.

As long as they don't fall in love or make wrong remarks, it seems that no matter what an artist does, they won't be held strictly accountable... But if someone throws a tantrum and wants to boycott the show, and finds all kinds of reasons not to quit the team but just doesn't appear... then we'll have to see how this young lady ends up.

Alas...it's just a game played by the daughters of wealthy families.

At least for the legal lady who saw the draft contract at that moment, the actions of Toyokawa Shoko and the big man behind her... were simply spending money to amuse a child.

"Dong Dong~"

"Please come in."

"Toyokawa-sama... no, Toyokawa-san." The legal lady realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly corrected herself. "The contract has been drafted. I'll send it to everyone to take a look."

"Well, while everyone's looking at the contract, let me write down my vision of the world on the whiteboard."

Shoko Toyokawa ignored the legal sister's strange expression. She picked up a marker and started writing and drawing on the whiteboard.

The first name I wrote down was the code name I had intended to use to accompany Chihiro silently and be her lyricist behind the scenes: "oblivionis"

Chihiro Tsuzuki, I will no longer be the weak person behind you. From this moment on... I am not afraid to forget. I will put all the dark history between you and me behind me.

And from then on, I started my new life.

Chapter 194 Although I can’t play the piano, I just want to play it (2/2)

"Why are you three so slow today...wait, why are you all here together?"

Inside the recording studio, Shiina Riki saw that it was Deng, Chihiro and Aine who pushed open the door and walked in. He was a little dissatisfied with the time they appeared.

But the next question is... the clothes on Chihiro seem to be Yuqiu's school uniform?

This school uniform seems to give off a very astringent vibe when worn by this cute-looking girl. I don’t know if it’s because of her plump breasts that don’t match her looks, or because of the black stockings on her legs.

All in all, Li Xi still doesn't quite understand what kind of person Chihiro is, but if she is the "Shuangshi" she used to be, Li Xi believes that he should be able to become good friends with this girl.

"I'm a student of Hanaoka now~"

"Wait...when?" Li Xi was stunned for a moment. She just thought Chihiro was playing some cosplay again.

She subconsciously looked in the direction of Su Shi. After all, Su Shi should be the person who knows Qianxun best. But this one look...

"Su Shi, what's that expression on your face?"

"No, it's nothing."

Nagasaki Suyo looked back and forth between Chihiro and Aine with a look of resentment, but when she heard what Riki said, she quickly put on a smiling face.

"So, Su Shi, you already knew about this?"

"Yes, that's right, but Chihiro wasn't sure she would pass the exam, so I didn't tell everyone in advance."

"You'll definitely pass! But I'll be helping Chihiro with her studies!"

"……hehe."

Lixi rubbed her temples. She always felt that as the band expanded from five people to six, the situation became more and more complicated, and... she still couldn't understand what was going on.

However, since today is the day when everyone is present, Li Xi feels it is necessary to discuss future plans with everyone.

Even though they are just a small band composed of high school students and do not have many constraints and pressures, for Lixi... she does not think that the new group mygo can continue to be viewed with the same attitude as before.

Whether it was the crychic period or the period before Chihiro and Su Shi's affairs were exposed, everyone at that time was actually very confused and lost.

But things are different now.

Lixi believed that except for Lenai who was unsure about her opinion, everyone else gathered here definitely wanted to see the band through to the end.

A lifetime... Maybe it's too early to say this, but Li Xi hopes to do it this time.

"First, I want to confirm two issues."

Li Xi cleared his throat and asked, "First question, was the song 'Bi Tian Ban Zou' written by you, Qianxun?"

"certainly……"

"Of course it's her!"

Before Qianxun could explain, Su Shi beside her quickly interrupted and said, "I can't write songs, but Qianxun is quite good at composition. She wrote a pretty good song not long ago..."

Chihiro Tsuzuki looked at Su Shi with some confusion, but when she saw her little maid looking at her with a look of help, she spread her hands and openly took all the credit for her girlfriend.

"That song should be 'Cut Line', right?"
