“How could that be, Mom? I would never do anything like bullying my classmates.” Nagasaki Motoyo’s voice became softer and gentler.

"Xiaodeng came to me to complain because she was unhappy. I was just about to comfort Xiaodeng's mother when she came back."

"Little Lamp, come into my room?"

Upon reaching Takamatsu Akari's side, Nagasaki Motoyo's expression instantly became complicated. Then, she took Takamatsu Akari's hand and led her into her bedroom.

Takamatsu allowed Nagasaki Motoyo to lead her, and it took her quite a while after entering Motoyo's private bedroom before her consciousness gradually returned to reality.

Just now, Su Shi took her hand?

"Su Shi, you..."

"I didn't mean anything by it, I was just trying to answer Mom's question, Xiaodeng, don't overthink it."

"Su Shi, why do you lie to your mother too?"

"This has nothing to do with Xiaodeng, does it?"

Nagasaki Motoyo closed the door, her right hand supporting her left elbow, her expression obscured by the darkness of the room.

"Little Lamp, do you want to go home?"

"No, I will absolutely not go back before bringing Su Shi back."

Gao Songdeng wiped his slightly swollen eyes, his expression regaining its firmness.

Even though she was heartbroken and in great pain, as long as she didn't return to the band in the afterlife, she would never leave now!

"I'm really fed up with you. Okay then."

"By the way, you must not come out without my permission. Consider this my request to you, Little Lamp."

Nagasaki Motoyo sighed, then opened the door and re-entered the living room. Her immediate priority was to calm her mother down.

I absolutely cannot let Mom know about the band. She's already lost the band; she can't afford to lose her family too!

After Nagasaki Motoyo left the bedroom, Takamatsu Akari felt herself fall into darkness, and her senses tightened slightly.

Although Su Shi's bedroom was large, it gave her a feeling of loneliness and desolation. Su Shi, like the room, was empty and lonely.

"this is……"

"A cello?"

Takamatsu tiptoed to the desk, turned on the light, and a huge black musical instrument immediately came into view.

"So, besides the bass? Su Shi also plays this instrument at home?"

"While playing the cello, Su Shi..."

What might they be thinking?

Takamatsu immediately imagined the scene of the girl playing music alone in her bedroom.

The cello played beautifully under Su Shi's guidance, but even such beautiful music couldn't reach anyone's heart, because in this vast house...

Su Shi had no audience at all.

"I won't let Su Shi be alone. Su Shi definitely needs a band."

Gao Songdeng didn't know why she had these feelings, but everything she saw at this moment undoubtedly strengthened her determination to win back Su Shi.

"Xiao Deng, let's go out for dinner together?"

About fifteen minutes later, Nagasaki Motoyo opened the bedroom door that had been closed for a long time, and then saw Takamatsu Akira sitting not far from the cello, looking dazed.

"This is the instrument I practice in the school's brass band. I practice a few pieces when I come home on weekdays," Nagasaki Motoyo explained as she walked up to Takamatsu Akari.

"Thank you, Su Shi, for being willing to tell me."

"this is nothing."

A faint blush rose on Nagasaki Motoyo's face, and she chose to deny Takamatsu Akari's straightforward praise.

The two walked out of the bedroom, and a variety of dishes were already laid out on the dining table not far from the living room.

Even just standing far away, Song Deng could smell the delicious aroma.

These dishes are sure to be delicious!

"Little Lamp, are you feeling any better now?"

"Yes, it's much better now, thanks to Su Shi."

Gao Songdeng smiled slightly, revealing two adorable dimples on her cheeks. She was no longer as sad as she had been just now.

"That's good. Our Su Shi is always so gentle and kind. She must have comforted Xiao Deng, right?"

"Oh, by the way, this is a stew that Su Shi made. You can try it too!"

Upon hearing Su Shi's mother's words, Takamatsu looked in the direction she was pointing and immediately focused all her attention on the food.

"Can I eat this, Su Shi?"

Takamatsu Akari turned around and looked at Nagasaki Motoyo, whose face was indifferent.

"Of course, Little Lamp."

Under Takamatsu's bright gaze, Nagasaki Motoyo blushed and nodded.

If the food suits Xiaodeng's taste, then she should be able to spend the night peacefully with her mother, right?

After all, one is obligated to pay for someone's food and one is obligated to accept their gifts. Xiaodeng should understand this simple truth!

"By the way, Kodama-san, isn't your uniform from Haneoka Girls' Academy?"

How did you meet Su Shi?

"mom!"

Hearing her mother start talking with a smile, Nagasaki Motoyo's expression clearly became anxious.

If they keep talking, who knows what Xiaodeng and her mother will talk about!

"Mom is just curious! After all, Haneoka and Tsuki no Mori are geographically separated by a huge distance, aren't they?"

"It was the band, it was the band that connected me with Su Shi."

Takamatsu answered the question frankly.

"band?"

"Yes, it's a band."

"In the band, Su Shi cherishes each of us very much and has brought a lot of help to the band, and I like Su Shi for that."

"Ahem, Little Lamp, what are you saying!"

Nagasaki Motoyo's cheeks burned. How could Kodou have said such things in front of her mother?

"I don't want Su Shi to be alone. I want to be with Su Shi no matter what."

Takamatsu Akari stood up from her chair at the dining table, her bright eyes fixed intently on Nagasaki Motoyo, completely forgetting the presence of another parent!

"So Su Shi has such a good friend as Xiao Deng. I'm relieved."

Ms. Nagasaki's gaze softened, and a heavy weight in her heart quietly disappeared.

Based on her years of experience navigating the ups and downs of the workplace, every word Gao Songdeng spoke was not a lie, but a sincere and heartfelt truth.

With a classmate named Xiaodeng by Su Shi's side, Su Shi would probably be even happier, right?

"Thank you so much, Xiaodeng, for praising Su Shi! Haha, would you like to stay tonight, Xiaodeng?"

"Our house is quite big, with plenty of rooms to stay in!"

"Yes, I want to stay, but I want to sleep with Su Shi."

"Huh?" Ms. Nagasaki exclaimed.

"Little lamp!" Nagasaki Motoyo was ashamed.

"Su Shi is lonely, and I don't want her to sleep alone!"

Gao Songdeng tilted his head and laid out all the reasons he had been thinking.

Volume 2 continues mygo!: Chapter 102: I was just tackled by Su Shi, is that okay?

Nighttime, the bedroom of a young girl in a spacious, riverside apartment overlooking the sea.

"So, why did it turn out this way?"

The once quiet bedroom is no longer dark; a warm little source of warmth lies quietly on Nagasaki Motoyo's bed.

Nagasaki Motoyo kept a close eye on what was happening behind her, her face flushed red.

The adorable little penguin Takasōdō... is right beside her now.

After Xiaodeng said those extremely misleading things, the nature of going to bed at night inexplicably changed. In order to maintain a good relationship with Xiaodeng in front of her mother...

The two of them have to sleep together tonight.

"Why is Su Shi's body so stiff?" Gao Songdeng looked at the flaxen hair less than twenty centimeters away from her and asked softly, "Is she feeling unwell?"

"She probably just got into bed and hasn't warmed up yet, right?"

Nagasaki Motoyo answered Takamatsu Akari with a soft voice and her beautiful eyes selectively closed.

But how could the bedroom, being a room in a luxury apartment, not have heating? Nagasaki Motoyo didn't intend to tell Takamatsu Akari this veiled information.

Now, the two of them can slowly fall asleep like this.

Unfortunately, her wishes always backfired. Behind her, a hot breath slowly approached Nagasaki Motoyo!

"Little lamp?"

With just a slight touch from Takamatsu Akari's fingers, Nagasaki Motoyo trembled slightly as if she had been electrocuted. Had Akari, who hadn't uttered a word, launched a sneak attack on her?!

Nagasaki Motoyo subconsciously shifted her body slightly to the right side of the bed, and Takamatsu Akari immediately noticed this tiny movement.

A hint of disappointment and confusion flashed in Takamatsu's eyes. It seemed that Su Shi was somewhat resistant to her approach.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I just wanted to bring warmth to Su Shi."

"Su Shi's body is very stiff. If I were here too, it would probably warm up faster, right?"

After carefully expressing his true feelings, Gao Songdeng withdrew his probing finger, and the distance between them increased from twenty centimeters to more than thirty centimeters.

Since Su Shi objected to her actions, she would not do it again.

“I didn’t say I was angry, Kodama, you don’t need to apologize.” A blush spread from the base of her ears to her cheeks as Nagasaki Motoyo explained in a soft voice.

To be honest, Nagasaki Motoyo was quite moved by Kodama's thoughtfulness in considering others...

Not disgusting.

She was still a little unaccustomed to such intimate behavior. Besides her mother, the only other person who could be so close to her was her father, but now her father was no longer by her side.

Nagasaki Motoyo pulled herself out of her reverie, her clear blue eyes appearing dim in the moonlight as she gazed at the distant view of the buildings outside the transparent window.

There seem to be two more stars in the night sky tonight?

In the stillness of the night, everything seemed to stand still. In this environment, only she and Xiaodeng were in the room.

"Xiao Deng, how would you feel if Xiangzi never contacted you again?"

"Well, let me add something: it's the kind of breaking off all ties."

Nagasaki Motoyo slowly opened her mouth and asked Takamatsu Akari a question that seemed quite 'out of place'.

The pent-up emotions in her heart always need to be released. It seems that she can only talk to the little lantern in front of her now about everything related to C-group.

Of course, this was just a chat, and she had absolutely no intention of rejoining Xiaodeng's band.

They are now Nagasaki Motoyo and Takamatsu Akari from Crychic, Nagasaki Motoyo convinced herself.

"Saki-chan? We've broken off all contact and will never contact each other again?"

As Takamatsu listened to the girl's relaxed tone, his expression gradually became serious.

Although her relationship with Xiangzi is now pretty much as Su Shi described...
