As long as two passionate hearts keep drawing closer, one day they will be able to reach a point of mutual understanding, right?

That's enough.

This is how she gets along with Shiina Ritsuki!

"Yes, I understand, Tomori."

With a slight upturn of her lips, Shiina Tatsuki revealed a gentle smile and spoke softly.

Yes, so what if I can't become Aine, Su Shi, or Xiangzi...?

What you can't do, you just can't do; you can't become and don't want to become.

What does it matter to her what other people look like?

Just be yourself, and have a clear conscience.

because

She is Shiina Tatsuki.

"So it's a promise, Lixi!"

A blush rose to her ears, and Gao Songdeng extended her little finger.

"Pinky promise, hang yourself, for a hundred years..."

"Don't change it!"

With a smile, he uttered the last three words, and Shiina Tatsuki responded with his little finger.

"Lixi, no matter what happens in the future, you can never lie to me again!"

"Yes, I will, Tomori."

"I want to be in a band with Tomori for life!"

"I want to be in a band for life," is Shiina Tatsuki's vow.

Volume 2 continues!: Chapter 73 Sleeping with Lixi

"Tomori, but what about the band? Aine, Sose?"

With a worried expression, Shiina Tatsuki calmed down and said.

Although I was happy to open up to Tomori, there are still things to be resolved with the band.

What are your plans for tomorrow's live performance?

What are Li Xi's thoughts?

Although she had already made up her mind, Gao Songdeng decided to listen to Li Xi's thoughts first.

"Of course, the live performance is the most important thing. Just find someone to replace me..."

Without much hesitation, Shiina Tatsuki directly made the 'optimal solution'.

Tomorrow's live performance is of great significance to their band. As long as they can successfully launch the live performance and get off to a good start, then they can overcome any difficulties that follow.

The only cost was finding a backup drummer, which Shiina Tatsuki found acceptable.

Everything was for the sake of the band's survival.

"And what about Lixi?"

The question came from the gray-haired girl, her eyes bright and alert.

"I studied music composition while recovering from my illness..."

Hearing Takamatsu Akari's words, Shiina Tatsuki subconsciously revealed his own plans.

The band will not disband, and the live shows will continue; it's all for Tomori.

But Takamatsu only shook his head slightly, a small but powerful movement.

"No, a live performance without Li Xi is not the kind of live performance I want to organize."

"The band's drummer can only be Li Xi! No one else can do it!"

Although we could listen to Li Xi's opinion...

But this is the one thing we must insist on, Gao Songdeng thought to himself.

No matter what the band encounters along the way, the band members must remain the same.

"Since we've decided to be in a band for life, let's make a promise: no one can be missing!"

The guitarist can only be Ai-yin and Raku-na, the bassist can only be Su-se, and the drummer can only be Ri-xi.

This is their band.

"Tomori, I understand."

Sensing the determination in the girl's words, Shiina Tatsuki nodded solemnly.

"So, as expected, I still don't want Lixi to force herself."

"Because a lifetime is very long."

Having once again expressed his thoughts, Gao Songdeng looked up, his gaze piercing.

Because they want to be in a band for life, every moment and every instant has to be stretched out. Only by slowly building up the threads can they continue to walk steadily on their path.

In order not to break the promise made when forming the band.

“I understand Tomori’s concerns, but I will continue to do so until I achieve my goal.”

"Shiina Tatsuki is Shiina Tatsuki."

Shiina Tatsuki smiled and shook his head, his chest slightly straightening.

Although she heard Tomori's comforting words again, she was no longer as easily agitated as before.

She will no longer lie to Tomori, but correspondingly, she will no longer lie to herself.

Even though our views are still very different from Tomori's, as long as we speak out, we can keep moving forward even if we don't understand each other.

"By the way, what time is it now? Tomori, shouldn't you be going home?"

After the conversation ended, looking out at the increasingly dark night, Shiina Tatsuki gave a reminder.

Unbeknownst to him, Gao Songdeng had already spent far too much time with her.

"Ah, let me see."

Reminded by Shiina Tatsuki, Takamatsu Akari hurriedly turned on her phone's screen saver.

8:18

"It's still early, I'm sure I can catch the last train."

"That's good. If Tomori can't go home because she's taking care of me, I'll feel guilty."

"Then, why don't we just stay at Lixi's house?"

"what?"

Hearing Takamatsu Akari's somewhat dangerous remarks, Shiina Tatsuki instinctively gasped in surprise.

"Can't I sleep at Lixi's house?"

Gao Songdeng's cheeks flushed slightly, a hint of doubt appeared on her lips, and her fair little hands gently clenched in front of her chest.

"Of course! If Tomori is willing, I definitely am!"

Shiina Tatsuki hurriedly expressed that she had no intention of being unwilling, looking flustered.

"That's good."

"Can I stay then?"

"Lixi is sick and needs someone to take care of her..."

"I want to take care of Lixi for a little longer!"

Taking care of Riki was indeed Takamatsu's true wish.

Given the current situation, Lixi definitely can't manage alone!

"Oh well."

"Well then, Tomori, nice to meet you today."

Shiina Tatsuki turned her cool face around, a faint blush rising on her cheeks.

Sleeping with Tomori? I never even dared to imagine something like that before!

"I wonder what Tomori looks like when she sleeps?"

As the image of the two of them sharing a bed gradually appeared in her mind, Shiina Tatsuki's face turned even redder.

After finishing her discussion with Shiina Tatsuki, Takamatsu Akari slowly walked out of the second-floor bedroom and took out her phone.

"Okay, okay, Dad, I'll be careful."

The ten-minute phone call passed quickly. After explaining the situation to her father, Takamatsu Yuji, Takamatsu Akari made a promise.

Meanwhile, Shiina Maki, who had been leisurely sitting in the living room, turned to look at Takamatsu Akari—she had been watching her for a long time.

Understanding the unspoken message, Takamatsu Akari descended the steps and sat down opposite Shiina Maki, her expression reserved.

"Don't be so nervous, Takamatsu."

"But now it seems the problem should be solved, right?"

By carefully observing Takamatsu Akari's expression, Shiina Maki had already formed a general understanding.

"Yes, yes, we have to thank Maki-neechan for her help."

"If it weren't for Maki-neechan, I... I guess I would have run away by now, right?"

Looking gratefully at the beautiful girl in front of him who bore a striking resemblance to Riki, Takamatsu felt incredibly fortunate.

If fate has paths and routes, then in that very moment...

"At the crossroads of fate, it was Maki who changed the world line."

The wonderful metaphors unfolded in Takamatsu's mind in the form of a picture book, all of which was a choice of fate!

"Haha, there's no need to make it sound so serious, Takamatsu-kun. I just said a few words."

"All of this depends on Takamatsu's hard work."

Shiina Maki declined the compliment by waving her hand away.

Regardless, as the older sister, she does have to help her younger sister at times, and Takamatsu Akari is simply exercising that power on her behalf.

"Well then, Tomori, let me see you off. It's getting late..."

Although Shiina Maki really liked the cute little penguin girl in front of her, she was, after all, her junior, and it was time to go home so as not to worry her parents.

"I... I've already made a promise with Lixi to stay."

"-Tonight."

With his eyes darting around, Gao Songdeng spoke somewhat embarrassedly.

"Stay here, Lixi is really becoming more and more different..."

Hearing Takamatsu Akari's slightly shy words, Shiina Maki felt a little confused.

One can only say that Li Xi truly lives up to her reputation as her sister.

 

 He simply kept the female classmate who was visiting for the first time at his home!
