Aunt Xiangzi, how did you manage to live?

Chu Hua and Kazama, who were already on their way out, didn't notice the three of them joking around. They left the hall and stopped on the sidewalk outside the door.

"Ahem, Chu Hua, what you mean by 'catching up'... could it be..."

Kazama glanced around at the bustling crowd and wisely lowered his voice, changing his address for the blonde girl from "Hatsune" to "Hatsuka".

"Hmm. At least for you, Xiaojun, it's a chance to catch up, right?"

As Chu Hua reached the main entrance, she released the arm that had been holding the boy's. She gracefully stepped aside, put on a baseball cap and mask, and looked at Xiao Shi with undisguised apology in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, I was a little confrontational with Xiaomu just now. After all, based on what Xiaojun told me, she should be... Xiaojun's future mother, right?"

"Ah, that's right. But that's at least twenty years from now. The current Mutsu doesn't carry that memory, nor does she have the experience of raising me. She's just an ordinary girl."

Humans are truly a strange creature. At first, Xiao hoped that Muhe and the others could treat her as before, but if they were only feeling pressured because they knew about this experience and were forcing themselves to treat him as family, Xiao would rather they were just a group of ordinary girls living by the rules.

"...I know, I know everything."

Chu Hua simply smiled and looked at him, without delving any further.

"Hey—the promise I made with Xiaojun still stands, right? If you want me to keep this a secret, you have to grant my wish."

She turned her back and walked away with light steps, changing the subject in the most natural tone.

The side of Xiaojun that neither Xiaomu nor Sushi knew has now been completely revealed to her.

How could Miku Miku not press her advantage?

"My current wish is to be able to hear all about your past."

The girl's smile remained unchanged; even though it was hidden by a mask, a hint of a smile could still be seen from the slightly upturned corners of her eyes.

So, let's go home. Together.

Chapter Five: Secrets of the Triangle Family

Click.

The apartment door opened easily with a crisp sound, and the blonde girl took off her shoes with practiced ease, casually draping her coat over the coat rack next to the entrance.

"Please come in, Xiaojun."

She glanced down at the boy behind her, as if inviting a small animal visiting her territory for the first time.

"excuse me……"

Xiao didn't hesitate too much; even if he had to bite the bullet, he had to accept Hatsune's invitation to become a guest of honor at the Triangle Family.

Speaking of which... he has never visited Hatsune Miku's house during her teenage years.

This was originally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore what kind of life Hatsune Miku lived before I was born.

Despite the awkwardness and unease of being alone with a man and a woman in a room, she still wanted to learn more about Hatsune Miku's life when she was young.

He hesitated for a moment at the door, but finally decided to grit his teeth, take a step forward, and gently close the door.

Light gray and natural wood tones are the main color scheme of this loft apartment, with no unnecessary decorations on the walls. The room is not large, but it feels bright and airy thanks to the high ceilings and many windows.

It's clear that the girl has kept this space very organized and full of life. The few well-cared-for green plants in the corner also reflect the homeowner's personality and aesthetic sense, which is particularly approachable.

"Welcome to my little secret base."

Hatsune led him to sit on the sofa in the center of the living room, and then went straight to the refrigerator in the open kitchen to select drinks for entertaining guests.

"Black tea, canned coffee... Ah, it's best not to consume tea polyphenols and caffeine at this time, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight..."

Talking to herself, she could only bring the plain water to the table, her delicate and lovely face full of apology.

"I'm sorry, Xiaojun, because I really don't have any experience in entertaining guests... and I don't have any drinks at home that I usually serve to others."

However, her unspoken meaning was also quite clear.

Kazama Akatsuki—or rather, the boy she should now call Wakaba Akatsuki—was the first guest she brought home to entertain after moving to Tokyo.

If he could notice this detail that Hatsune Miku specifically emphasized, he would probably be somewhat moved.

"Yes, I know that."

To everyone's surprise, this guy simply nodded dismissively and took the water glass that Hatsune Miku had placed on the table with the most natural gesture.

"It's okay, I'll just drink water. Anyway, when I used to visit Aunt Hatsune's house, they basically only had drinking water."

…I feel like this guy doesn't care at all about the special treatment I received.

Hatsune Miku suppressed the frustration of giving a flirtatious look to a blind man, and kept the smile on her face bright.

"Do you remember what I told you before, Xiaojun?"

Her voice remained gentle, but it suddenly emitted a sharp chill that sent a shiver down Xiao's spine.

"Please stop calling me auntie."

Although Hatsune had a strong opinion about this, even the way she put pressure on Akatsuki was a tactic he was all too familiar with: a smile that concealed a dagger.

"I... I was just stating the facts from my memory! Anyway, it was Hatsune who invited me home to catch up, wasn't it? I just told the truth."

When people lack confidence, they deliberately raise their voices, or suddenly find something to do to make themselves look busy—Xiao did just that, shouting her response while quickly picking up her water glass to take a sip.

Oh no, his submissive attitude towards his aunt has become a bloodline-suppressing debuff etched into his DNA. Even though the aunt in front of him is just a youthful version of Hatsune Miku, he still finds it a bit difficult to deal with her.

Hatsune seemed to have noticed Akatsuki's slight panic, and thinking she had regained control of the conversation, she relaxed and sat down next to the boy.

"Yes, that's right. I just wanted Xiaojun to know... that you're the first person I brought home."

Of course, she wasn't entirely at ease when she said those words. After all, people tend to keep quiet or even remain silent about such straightforward expressions of a young girl's feelings.

Hatsune took only a tentative small step, while nervously glancing at the boy sitting next to her to see how he would react.

Having already explained his importance and specialness to this extent, Xiao should have realized her thoughts by now.

"...It's probably because Hatsune Miku took an instant liking to me, and then we got along so well later on."

After taking a sip of water, the boy continued speaking, picking up where she left off. His words made Hatsune's heart skip a beat, as her heart was already fluttering.

As expected, Xiao was not some slow-witted or dull-witted fool; he was able to understand the unspoken meaning behind his words.

What should she do next? Actually, she's already a big step ahead of Xiao Mu and Su Shi. It doesn't matter if she doesn't press her advantage and do something even more outrageous, since haste makes waste.

But... right now she has something in her hands that could make Xiaojun do anything for her.

Being well-behaved and considerate is Hatsune Miku's consistent persona, but if... even just once, it shouldn't be a problem to abuse it, right?

However, Hatsune's little plan still went awry, much to everyone's delight.

As she mentally pounded her chest and began planning her next move, Xiao Leng unexpectedly offered an additional explanation for what she had just said.

"That's normal, right? Just like how I wanted to continue the relationship between aunt and nephew when I first saw Hatsune Miku, it must be because Hatsune Miku also retains a sense of familiarity with me that she is more enthusiastic towards me than other strangers."

His explanation was like a bucket of cold water, completely extinguishing the flames that were stirring in Hatsune's heart.

“………Eh?”

We finally managed to lighten the mood, but why is this guy bringing up the issue of kinship like aunt and nephew again?

"Isn't that right? I thought Hatsune Miku was giving me special treatment because of that."

The boy blinked very seriously; he was definitely not making things up.

Of course, this will only give Hatsune Miku an even bigger headache.

"...So that's why you've been trying to rediscover that feeling of aunt and nephew getting along like before?"

"You could say that. If I, from the future, could help you live better lives, that would be wonderful—after all, Mutsuho is the aunt who raised me!"

Xiao grinned, her sincerity and cheerfulness flowing freely into that pure smile.

This, in turn, made Hatsune's expression freeze even more.

What should I do if the person I'm trying to woo only treats me like a younger version of an older woman? I need help urgently.

Chapter Six: Xiaojun, Stay Tonight

If life were a large-scale visual novel game, then when each person encounters a new character, both sides should have a basic level of mutual affection.

After Xiao Hui traveled to this time and space, he did everything he could to help the group of band girls, naturally because their status as "aunties" added a lot of goodwill to him.

The reverse is also true.

Misaki Miku and I hit it off immediately, and Mutsu, Suze, and Riki gradually accepted my existence after I kept pestering them—probably because they were like family in another timeline.

So Xiao naturally concluded that Hatsune Miku brought her home for the same reason.

"So, Xiaojun, what you said before about wanting to become family..."

"Of course, it means exactly what it says."

Xiao remained composed and unfazed, while Hatsune's expression looked rather grim.

"Because we are family in another time and space, I want to become family with everyone again even though our ages don't match up—but I'm sure you'll think I'm weird if I say that, right?"

His explanation was very reasonable and well-founded, but this only made Hatsune feel frustrated.

What? Back then, she kept those words in her heart as a kind of salvation.

She had initially thought that Xiao Neng's solemn and serious words to her meant that he wanted to express a deeper and more profound emotion—

In the end, they just became family.

"So that's it..."

She lowered her head somewhat dejectedly. Xiao was a little flustered by Hatsune's performance, but he quickly made his thoughts clear.

"I will no longer call you Auntie Hatsune! I've slowly come to understand that since we live in two different timelines, I can't expect you to be responsible for your relatives in the other timeline."

Simply put, it means that Ye Xiao is trying to separate her memories from the band girls in this time and space, treating the aunties in her memories and the girls in the present as completely different individuals.

"...So if Hatsune is worried that my initial approach to you and becoming friends with you was just because I was reminiscing about the past, you don't need to think that way at all."

Surrounded by the scent of Hatsune Miku, he poured out his heart to the room's owner without reservation.

"It's true that I want to be your friend, and it's also true that I'm influenced by your personality and emotions. It's not just because of the relationship between aunt and nephew."
