Can Lixi look at me alone?

"What do you think your relationship with Xiangzi is? What right do you have to speak on her behalf about me and Jieyue?"

As if anticipating that she would use her childhood friend as a shield, now that Jieyue is not around, Lixi naturally has no intention of restraining his attack.

"Childhood sweetheart? Do you even deserve to call yourself that?"

She sized up the popular teenage idol and spoke words that were completely merciless.

"Yue and Mutsuki don't know you, do they? They just haven't exposed you because they don't care. You don't really think you're Xiangzi's childhood sweetheart, do you?"

Chu Hua gently tugged at her hair.

"What difference does it make whether I am or not? How does it conflict with my caring for Xiao Xiang and helping him?"

There's no conflict. It doesn't matter if I'm not Xiaoxiang's childhood friend, because we're good friends, and I'm helping her. It's that simple.

"Since you've said that, then may I ask... why did Xiangzi suddenly leave the band?"

Chu Hua, who hadn't expected the topic to jump to that point, responded instinctively.

"Because Xiao Xiang feels that he's with you guys..."

Lixi interrupted her impatiently.

“We were all brought here by her, and now you’re telling me she wants to abandon us? Do you really think Xiangzi is such an irresponsible guy?”

of course not!

Chu Hua wanted to argue, but Li Xi didn't give her the chance.

“I hate this girl… but I have to admit, she’s amazing. She’s very responsible and values ​​crychic. So, she definitely wouldn’t have left the band for no reason. I can understand her not wanting to tell us what happened.”

Lixi grabbed her collar.

"So, what did you do during this time? Did you help her? Or were you unaware of any difficulties she encountered?"

She saw panic on Chu Hua's face.

"Yue has been trying to help her, but you keep saying she's just causing trouble for Xiangzi. Even if you're right, that Xiangzi doesn't need Yue... then what have you been doing all this time?"

Lixi released her hand, glanced at Chuhua with pity, and then stopped arguing with her.

What right does a cowardly coward who doesn't even dare to approach Xiangzi have to criticize Jieyue?

"This is different..."

Chu Hua said softly.

"I believed that Xiao Xiang could overcome all difficulties. So I didn't actively seek her out, but waited for her to come to me..."

Can she solve all the problems?

Lixi looked towards the ward door, then took two steps back in fright.

"I don't think she can solve all the problems."

With a crisp sound, the air conditioner remote control, which had just flown towards the door, hit the door and fell to the ground.

The two people outside quietly approached the door to listen to what was happening inside.

"Yue, please believe me. I didn't call Riki here, I just..."

"Why did you call Lixi here too? Do you think I'm a burden and want to abandon me at the hospital?!"

Yuzuki certainly wouldn't think that way, but she... thought it would be fun to say it that way.

Seeing the expression on Xiangzi's face makes her feel very satisfied.

Riki... just use Flame Fist on Hatsuka for the sake of Yuzuki!

Love you all, meow

Volume 1 Crychic! : Chapter 152 Xiangzi Denies Forgetting

"No, I won't do that..."

Xiangzi sighed and softened her voice, wanting to explain properly, but Jieyue was unwilling to give her the chance.

The right thing to do is to take advantage of his status as a mental patient to get some benefits out of Xiangzi.

"But, but you also said you wouldn't forget me, right?"

Xiangzi doesn't lie, or rather... she simply disdains to lie.

If you excel in every aspect, then there's no need to use lies to cover up your shortcomings.

Xiangzi was precisely such a versatile person who excelled in every aspect.

However, even a genius will leave some flaws when lying for the first time.

"I've never forgotten you. What happened before... was just what I thought..."

Xiangzi bit her lower lip, unsure how to explain herself to conceal the truth that she had forgotten about Jieyue.

Making a date is such a hassle.

"Let's just pretend that Xiaoxiang doesn't know why Lixi likes Xiaodeng... okay?"

The understanding Yuzuki offered an explanation for her.

"Yes, that's it..."

Xiangzi, whose voice was initially weak, raised it to sound more forceful, and Jieyue didn't want to continue arguing with her about this topic. Anyway…

This secret could be used to blackmail Xiao Xiang for a very long time, but let's save it for later.

However, we need to solve the next problem.

The angel and Yuzuki reached an agreement.

Just hearing that disgusting voice made them start to lose control of their emotions.

"So, Xiao Xiang? Can you tell me where you found a friend like Chu Hua...?"

If Chu Hua hadn't been right outside the door, they would have really called her by that dog.

But after all, we should give Chuhua basic respect... I guess so.

Chu Hua, who was initially worried that Xiao Xiang might be bullied by Jie Yue, didn't expect the topic to shift to herself. She was also curious about how Xiao Xiang perceived her... so she continued to listen quietly.

"Chuhua?"

Xiangzi reached out and put Jieyue's hands under the blanket to prevent her wounds from tearing due to excessive emotional excitement.

"Chu Hua and I only met when we were very young. At that time, Jie Yue wasn't around. That's why you wouldn't know her."

After being fed quite a bit by Yuzuki, Xiangzi's condition visibly improved. At least she could once again maintain the dignified demeanor of a young lady, explaining things slowly and methodically in front of Yuzuki.

The angel didn't want to investigate why she wasn't by her side, since her purpose in saying all this was simply to ask her to keep her dog in check.

"So? Is Chu Hua a new toy that Xiang found? Or does Xiang also think that Chu Hua is your childhood sweetheart?"

Trusting in the soundproofing of the ward, and knowing that Yuzuki's voice wasn't particularly loud to begin with, Xiangzi raised her voice slightly. This was a way to make herself appear less vulnerable.

"Whether it's Hatsuka, you, Mutsuki, or everyone in Crychic! None of them are my toys. Do you understand, Yuzuki?"

After looking around, the pink-haired girl realized that there was nothing left to throw at Xiao Xiang, so she had no choice but to continue talking to her.

"Okay. So you admit that Chu Hua is also your childhood sweetheart, right?"

Xiangzi nodded.

"That's right, Chu Hua and I are in that kind of relationship. What do you think, Yuzuki?"

The girl idol at the door trembled with excitement. Xiao Xiang had personally acknowledged their relationship, which meant that... no matter what, she would never be overshadowed by Yuzuki again.

I am also Xiaoxiang's childhood friend, so from now on we will be equals!

Li Xi finally understood why Jie Yue had called Chu Hua a pet dog. Somewhat speechless, she glanced away and continued listening to the conversation inside.

"So, Xiang must have kept in touch with Chuhua, right?"

Yuzuki's fingers under the covers kept clenching and unclenching, despite the tearing pain in her hands warning her otherwise dangerous situation.

"...Yes, Chu Hua and I also keep in touch frequently."

The blonde girl outside the door silently touched her phone in her pocket.

Does Xiao Xiang... contact me often?

But it's okay, I'm already very satisfied that Xiao Xiang is willing to contact me and confide in me.

How often is it usually?

Yuzuki turned her head to look at her.

"Every day? Like with Xiao Mu, I say good morning and good night to her every day, and tell her to rest well and be careful?"

Xiangzi figured that they probably couldn't see it from outside anyway, so he simply nodded.

"...Chuhua cares about you a lot, Xiaoxiang."

The gentle voice of the moon made Chu Hua's pupils shrink outside the door.

"She cares about Xiao Xiang a lot, so... Xiao Xiang, please reciprocate with enough care, okay?"

Is it useful to hurl insults here?

It won't work; Jieyue knows Xiangzi very well. She naturally knows when to use a soft approach and when to use a sledgehammer.

Right now, Xiao Xiang needs to be slowly and carefully poke out more holes... In the future, she can finally smash everything she has with a single blow.

"I'm also very concerned about Chuhua, but Jieyue doesn't need to worry about these things. All you need to do now is rest well..."

Xiao Xiang cares about me a lot…

Chu Hua quietly walked back to her seat and sat down. Li Xi glanced at her and then continued listening.

Does Xiao Xiang really care about me?

If it's about the end of the month, it'll be a bit troublesome... but...

Xiao Xiang would say good morning and good night to others, but not to himself...

It seems like all I hear are requests for help.

Xiao Xiang isn't that kind of person; she must just be very busy and tired.

Yuzuki is definitely trying to sow discord between us... but is it necessary for her to do this?

If you want to sow discord, you shouldn't be complaining to Xiaoxiang now, saying how I treated her badly, how I made her cry... right?

Thousand Flowers and Moon... what exactly are you trying to do?

Chu Hua sat in her seat and waited, but after a while Xiangzi left the ward.

“Jieyue is still resting. Chuhua and I came over for a bit… Lixi, if possible, please don’t go in and upset Jieyue.”

If you eat her food, you have to run errands for her.

She was trying her best to repay Yuzuki's help.

Xiangzi, holding Chuhua's hand as she regained her smile, led her to a somewhat private place before letting go.

"I'm sorry, Chu Hua. But you're the only one I can think of."

The popular teenage idol shook her head.

"It's okay, Xiao Xiang... I already said that I always have time for Xiao Xiang."

There's always time...

"Hmm... I need Chu Hua to help me take care of Jie Yue when I don't have time. Time is limited."

It will be a long time, probably only a few days…

Please take care of my baby during her period...

Chu Hua's smile was somewhat stiff.

To be honest, she didn't like being in the same room with this girl who had an abnormal way of thinking, but it was Xiao Xiang's request after all.

"Ok!"
