MyGO? The string value monster craves the band girl!

"After all, I waited until Xiaochu returned to the lounge before bothering the president..."

Mana lowered her head, but her sweet face and voice made Xianjuan feel a broken feeling, similar to that of a 16-year-old divorced JK.

"So, is there something that MANA-chan doesn't want Chuhua to know?"

"Hmm..." Mana looked at Genmaki Yui with some doubt and confusion.

"Just now I didn't promise Chuhua to keep her itinerary a secret from you. Now I promise you not to tell anyone else about what's happening now."

Mana sighed softly, stood up and solemnly asked:

"I'd like to trouble you, President... I'd also like to apply for a room provided by the agency, but could you please arrange a place for me that won't easily disturb Xiaochu and the others?"

Genmaki Yui looked at Mana, who seemed very hurt, nodded, and pretended to open the room selection page on the computer.

"MANA-chan, do you want to avoid Chuhua and the others, or do you not want them to touch you?"

"Maybe a little bit of both... uh... I don't know, but now I miss Xiaochu so much, but I'm also afraid to see Xiaochu happy with other people."

Xianjuan Wei chuckled: "MANA-chan's mentality is really a bit twisted... But it's understandable. If Chuhua knew, she would probably blame herself for it."

"You just promised me a secret!"

"Don't worry... Um, by the way, does MANA-chan mind living alone without any other roommates?"

"Huh? Is this possible? I saw in the document that one apartment will be occupied before the next one is rotated..." Mana widened her eyes full of innocence.

"I'm the president, so of course I can do whatever I want... After all, this incident was caused trouble for MANA-chan by Xiangzi and Chuhua unintentionally, right?"

Xianjuan Wei nodded at the computer screen, seeming very satisfied with her choice. "The 32nd floor duplex in Roppongi is a little far from the office, but the office will soon provide everyone with a taxi subsidy for commuting. Is that acceptable?"

"Of course! Thank you very much! I'm not picky. As long as I can save some money, even if the environment is a little worse than my current residence, it doesn't matter... But, President, are you sure Xiaochu and the others won't choose to live nearby?"

"Absolutely confirmed. Master Qiuqi, please contact Jiusijiu's father." Xianjuan Wei nodded seriously again.

Located in Roppongi, this 32-story duplex is a 300-meter walk from Nagasaki Sushijia.

When he first saw the high-end real estate in Tokyo, he had noticed this place and had originally planned to use it as a starting point for his jungle adventure.

It's just that the donut lady will get a discount for now.

Even though Xiaomu and Xiangzi don't know where Nagasaki Suye's spawn point is for the time being, Genjumaki Wei is sure that this location and room type are not what they would prefer.

What's more, Xiaomu had already chosen a small villa for Xiangzi yesterday that looked like a scaled-down version of the old Fengchuan house - as long as Xiaomu made a suggestion, Xiangzi would not refuse.

Chapter 51 I want to see Aine smile (4.6K 2-in-1)

The Sumimi group was conducting their daily rehearsal in the recording studio. Producer Xiaoxiang was racking his brains for the next song, while Ruoye Mu was sitting next to Xiangzi doing his homework. It seemed that everyone seemed to have gotten what they wanted for the time being, and the harmony was perfect.

Among the four, Xiangzi is probably the one with the most serious and rigorous attitude.

As a popular group, Sumimi has a very good business foundation. As long as the songs they release next are still above a certain level, it can be expected that they will have decent sales.

It can be said that Xianjuan Wei has already put food on the table by letting her serve as the music director of Sumimi. Although the fixed salary level for this position is already quite good, aspiring musicians will place their hopes on the share of song sales.

Xiangzi's self-esteem also does not allow her to damage Sumimi's reputation and commercial value with a series of shoddy assembly-line songs.

Anyone who takes over an important position will more or less have certain expectations for a good start.

After a good night's sleep, Xiangzi's mentality is relatively stable now. For her first work that needs to be tested by the market, she does not expect to directly surpass "Here, The World", the debut song that made Sumimi popular; but at least she has to stabilize the expectations of fans and make fans believe that Sumimi can continue to produce high-quality songs in the future.

Xiaoxiang, who had entered a serious working state, was quite different from when he played in a band in Crychic just for fun. Chuhua, immersed in the joy of reuniting with Xiaoxiang and willing to do anything, didn't feel it clearly, but Mana could clearly feel it...

Although Ms. Shoko Toyokawa did not wear gold-rimmed glasses like her predecessor Ms. Shimizu, the low pressure and pressure she brought to the people around her when she entered a serious state was no less severe.

Even when Xiaoxiang gradually recovers from his Baixiang form, he will also partially activate a fixed active skill called "Pressure Different Group = 撩岜衤三令邻戚玖緗紦人".

No matter how gentle Xiangzi's tone or how clear his eyes were when communicating, it did not change his basic nature of being strict with himself and others.

Ruoye Mu would occasionally turn her head to peek at Xiangzi's condition in between doing her homework, and every time she saw Xiangzi staring at the laptop seriously and devoting himself to his work.

The stern and serious expression on Xiangzi's face made Ruoye Mu clearly realize that the current Xiangzi and her crychic period still belong to two different species.

The four people with different mentalities waited until the end of get off work. Xiangzi and Chuhua said goodbye to Mana enthusiastically, "See you tomorrow night." Wakaba Mutsu, who had only said "hmm" a few times all day, bowed to her and said goodbye.

The three roommates were going to check out their alternative accommodations. Originally, Ruo Yemu wanted to pay for a taxi so as not to put too much pressure on Xiangzi by taking the office car, but in the end he couldn't resist Xian Juanwei's insistence as she had already parked the office car downstairs.

Xianjuan Wei decided to give them more private space when it came to house-hunting and not get involved - the last time he accompanied Ruoye Mu to inspect the house types for a whole night had left him with some not-so-nice mental memories.

And... Xianjuan Wei also has something she really wants to do now.

On his mobile phone, an account with an avatar of pink flowers that made people subconsciously think the name was "Hua Kai Fu Gui" sent him a message.

"Today is our band's first official rehearsal. Thank you very much, Xianjuan-san. It is because of your help that our story begins."

In the picture, a guitar strap can be seen on Aine's shoulder while she makes a scissors hand gesture, and Deng, with a somewhat nervous expression, is staring at the camera from behind Aine.

Lixi, holding the drumsticks, looked unhappy and was sighing.

Hailing held the bass straight and looked like she was very experienced in taking band ID photos. Her posture was quite standard and old-fashioned.

On the other side, in RiNG's practice room.

Li Xi, who reluctantly cooperated with Aine to take a selfie, tapped his drumsticks.

"Ain, if your guitar skills remain this low, our band will definitely get the most negative reviews at live shows."

As soon as the band started playing according to the score, Aine's true level was exposed. She smiled a little guilty.

"I just haven't had time to practice guitar in a while... I picked it up again after transferring to Haneda and seeing Kotobuki. Now I can play a C chord very smoothly..."

"Please, please, Li Xi, give me a little more patience~"

"I was the student council president and the guitarist for the student union in junior high. I'll be able to learn again pretty quickly."

"Ha..." Li Xi sighed, put the drumsticks aside, and held his head in his hands.

Hailing, who had been standing aside, squinted her eyes and watched the expression of giving up on Lixi's face, which was rarely seen in school.

Li Xi held his head and said, "Aine-san didn't tell me that you only knew the C chord that day..."

Aiyin held her guitar and her expression became a little more serious as she explained:

"Guitar starts and ends with chords! Learning chords is like learning calligraphy strokes. The quality of your guitar playing will be excellent. And I've been practicing these days..."

Li Xi no longer tried to argue with this pink-haired girl who insisted that she had a promising future. After lowering her head and thinking for a moment, she first looked up at Hai Ling who was diagonally in front of her, then her eyes fell on Deng, and finally looked at Aine helplessly.

"It seems our band is facing one of the toughest situations right now."

“Huh?” Aine subconsciously raised her hand and pointed at herself.

Although no one has mentioned her by name yet, she still wants to ask, "Are you talking about me?"

Li Xi stood up from the stool, put his hands on his hips and commented:

"If we don't count the lead singer and have to rank the abilities of each band member, based on live performances, I think the ideal ranking would be for the guitarist to be the strongest and the bassist to be the weakest."

"After all, the guitar's sound quality is the most obvious during live performances. Even if there are minor issues with the bass, the audience won't be able to hear them. But the same cannot be said for the guitar. Even the slightest mistake will be very jarring to the audience's ears."

"As long as the strongest guitarist performs consistently, the performance quality is at least guaranteed."

"Unfortunately, we're now facing the exact opposite situation. Hailing is very strong as a bassist, but Aine, you desperately need practice."

"If we were to hold a live show, and Aion, as the guitarist, couldn't control the rhythm of the song, it would be difficult for the three of us left to save the group."

The smile on Aine's lips collapsed. She was not used to the experience of being tortured for the first time in the band.

When she formed a band in the student union in junior high school, her guitar skills weren't much better than they are now, but everyone in the band rallied around her...

"I know, I know... Please be patient, this is only our first rehearsal..."

Hearing a hint of grievance in Aine's voice, Li Xi hesitated for a moment, but swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

The scenes of when crychic was first established and the lights were under constant pressure from her vaguely appeared in front of her eyes.

At the same time, Lixi couldn't help but compare his past and present guitar and bass teammates.

Back in crychic, the guitarist was Xiaomu, who, according to Qi Ersanling, Si Jiuqi (Four-) Xiangzi, had been playing guitar since childhood, and the bassist was Sushi, who had only been practicing bass for a month at Xiangzi's invitation.

Now the power comparison of the guitar and bass groups has been reversed... It's really terrible...

I was so happy when I first saw that I could form a band with Deng. I never expected that Deng would have no requirements for the level of his teammates...

"Well, I have to work tonight, and Hailing has to go support another band... The next rehearsal is Wednesday night. We are a band now, and one person's problems will also bother others. Please be more serious, Aine."

After saying that, Li Xi put on his coat and prepared to go to the coffee shop upstairs to change for Jiu Ling Wu San Bar and Qi Yin's class.

“Yeah… I understand.” Aine packed up her guitar somewhat gloomily.

Being in a band is not just about eating, drinking and having fun, or standing on the stage and playing some music to the cheers of the audience. Aiyin felt the pressure of being in a band during her first rehearsal.

Just as Aiyin was leaving RiNG with her guitar on her back, her phone suddenly vibrated with a message reminder.

I clicked on the message notification and found it was a message from Xianjuan.

"Congratulations, Aine-san. Does the band have any live performances planned? If time permits, I'll go and support you."

“Huh…” Aine closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief before replying:

"Right now, we're still rehearsing and getting used to each other. Once we have a confirmed live schedule, we'll let Xianjuan know as soon as possible."

Aine, who was comforted in time, placed the phone gently in front of her chest. The stress that had been slowly dissipating on its own since leaving the rehearsal room seemed to disappear without a trace at once.

Does this mean the band has its first fan now?

From being the last fan of Xiaodeng and Lixi’s original band, crychic, to being the first fan of his new band…

From one bottom edge to the other...

No, the lack of fame for a new band is only temporary!

But at this moment, the phone that Aine had placed on her chest, where there was no fat to cushion the vibration, vibrated again.

Aiyin raised her phone, but the message from the other party made her face pale slightly, and she almost let go of the phone and dropped it.

"If it's a live show, it's a public environment where the audience has no control. That means anyone, including friends and family, could come to watch Aine-san's live show. Is that okay with you, Aine-san?"

Anyone...

In other words, including the junior high school classmates who used to say, "I envy Aine for being able to study abroad"?

Aine, who was still immersed in the excitement of rehearsing with the band and the frustration of being pressured by her teammates, suddenly felt cold sweat running down her temples.

"What do you mean, Genmaki-san? I don't understand."

Aine, whose stress response was triggered, puffed up her face, and even the message she sent was tinged with a hint of confrontation.

"Aine-san was rehearsing at RiNG just now, right?"

"Ok?"

Half a minute later, Aiyin received the cafe link sent by Xianjuan Wei.

"If we talk in RiNG, we'll probably get bumped into by people we know, right? I've booked a private room at this restaurant. Aine-san, just mention Chihaya-san's name when you get there."

Aiyin: ? ?

No, no, when did I ever promise to go for coffee?

And shouldn't someone explain why they sent such a meaningless message just now?

Does this guy know what it means to respect women and behave like a gentleman? What on earth did he learn in London?

"Will Aiyin-san come?" Xianjuan Wei asked again from the other end of the network signal.

Annoyed, she suppressed the thought of replying "No," and quickly typed on her phone screen as if to vent her anger:

"It's rush hour now, it'll probably take two hours to get there!"

"It's okay. I have to get going too. I'll go wait for Aine-san first."

In a private room of a restaurant that was more like a Western restaurant than a cafe, Xianjuan Wei once again sat in the seat where he had once waited for Bailu Qiansheng.

"Click..."

Aine, with a serious and unhappy look on her face, pushed open the door of the private room.

Perhaps it was because of preconceived notions, but when she saw Aine like this, Genmaki Yui's first reaction was, "Aine actually made this kind of expression, it's so rare, I have to remember it well."

"Although it said it would take two hours, it actually only took Aine more than half an hour to get here. Please take a seat." Genjumaki Wei smiled and invited Aine to sit down.

Aine put her guitar aside, tidied the hair by her ear, sat down on a chair, and said straight to the point:

"Mr. Xianjuan, can you explain it to me? What exactly does it mean to send me a message like that?"
