Yamada Ryo frowned slightly, walked into the living room, and saw a familiar figure outside the door through the communication window.
Yi Di knows Hong Xia!
She was carrying a cake box, seemingly there to share dessert with her.
Normally, Yamada Ryo would be happy to see her friend Nijika, but at this moment, she just felt that the timing was terrible.
Should we open the door?
As Yamada Ryo hesitated.
The door to the master bedroom was gently pushed open. Seiji Fujiwara stepped out and looked curiously at the communication window.
Hongxia?
Seiji Fujiwara immediately recognized the girl's identity.
"Your friend?" he asked, feigning ignorance.
"Hmm..." Yamada Ryo nodded, feeling annoyed that his plans had been disrupted.
Seiji Fujiwara gazed at the vibrant, adorable face on the screen, his eyes subtly shifting.
Ichichi Hongxia.
The soul of the "Unity Band" is as warm and resilient as a little sun, bravely moving forward for their dreams.
She was also one of the characters that Seiji Fujiwara greatly admired when he watched "Lonely Rock" in his previous life.
Simply put, she is also his wife.
Yamada Ryo has already been won over, does Nijika have a chance?
Seiji Fujiwara's expression turned thoughtful.
His sudden change in expression was keenly noticed by Yamada Ryo, who was standing beside him.
Seiji, are you interested in Nijika?
Yamada Ryo looked thoughtful as she raised her hand and pressed the call button.
"Liang! You're finally here!" Hongxia's voice was full of urgency on the other end of the screen. "Are you alright? I brought you a gift, it's the signature strawberry cake from the new cake shop near STARRY!"
Yamada Ryo calmly replied, "I'm fine. Thank you, Nijika. But it's late, so you should go home early. I have a friend here... I'll be going to school tomorrow."
"No!" Hongxia's tone was unusually firm. "I have to see you with my own eyes today to feel at ease! Liang, you've been acting so strange lately! You just said you have friends? How can someone as weird as you make friends? Open the door and let me in!"
Yamada Ryo felt somewhat helpless.
She knew Hongxia's personality; once she became stubborn, nothing could sway her.
He could only pause the communication, turn to look at Seiji Fujiwara, and give him a questioning look.
“Let her in.” Seiji Fujiwara’s tone was relaxed and casual, as if he were talking about a trivial matter. “Perfect, let me meet your friend.”
Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.
But he didn't say anything, just silently turned around and pressed the call button again.
"...Then please come in, Hongxia."
……
……
"excuse me."
Nijika Ichi carried a cake box and entered the Yamada house.
He was about to speak as usual.
"Cool! You..."
Her words stopped abruptly the moment she saw the man in the living room.
In the living room, a handsome and tall young man was sitting on the sofa.
He was dressed in a well-tailored casual outfit, exuding a calm and composed demeanor, and his face was very familiar to Hongxia.
This was none other than the mysterious boss of "Genesis," who had recently been making headlines across major news outlets and was hailed as a "once-in-a-century" literary new king.
Seiji Fujiwara!
"Eh?!"
Hongxia's brain instantly went blank.
She stared in shock, looking at Seiji Fujiwara and then at Ryo beside her, feeling as if her worldview had been shaken like never before.
what happened?
Why is Seiji Fujiwara in Liang's house?!
Not long ago, she had a lively discussion with her sister, Ryo, and Ms. PA at STARRY about this suddenly emerging young genius!
At the time, they were still wondering whether such a handsome, talented, and wealthy perfect man was a real person or just an illusion created by the media.
And now, the man in this discussion is actually in his friend's house!
And judging from their appearance, they seem to know each other quite well? "Um... this is..." Hongxia's voice became somewhat stuttering due to excessive shock.
Yamada Ryo stepped between the two and introduced them in a calm tone: "Nijika, this is Fujiwara Seiji. Seiji, this is my friend, Ijichi Nijika."
"Hello, Ms. Ijichi." Seiji Fujiwara stood up and nodded with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Fujiwara!" Nijika bowed hurriedly, so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
But her heart was in turmoil because of Yamada Ryo's blurt-out "Seiji".
When Ryo was introducing himself, he actually called Fujiwara Seiji by his full name!
Their relationship... has it really gotten this close?!
In Japanese culture, young men and women addressing each other by their first names carries a connotation of ambiguity.

"Don't stand, come sit down." Yamada Ryo seemed to notice her unease and pulled her to sit on the sofa.
"Ah, right! Cake!" Hongxia exclaimed as if waking from a dream, quickly placing the cake box on the coffee table. "I... I'll go to the kitchen to get plates and forks!"
With that, she rushed into the kitchen as if fleeing.
However, the moment she turned on the kitchen light, Hongxia froze again.
On the kitchen counter, there were still some fresh vegetable scraps left, and in the sink, there were two used glasses and a set of Western tableware soaking.
Most importantly, there were several boxes of high-end imported ingredients lying in the trash can.
Hongxia's doubts deepened.
I would never cook something that's cold!
She knew this better than anyone else.
Liang has virtually no life skills; besides eating grass and playing bass, she can't do anything else.
So, who did this?
Is it Seiji Fujiwara?
Moreover... there seems to be a... very strange smell in the air?
The flavor was very faint, mixed in with the aroma of the food, almost imperceptible.
It's somewhat like the base notes of a high-end perfume, with a hint of... indescribable, hormonally charged musk scent.
She didn't think much of it, assuming it was just the incense from the luxury apartment.
Hongxia shook her head, took out a plate and fork, and returned to the living room.
She handed the cut cake to Ryo and Seiji Fujiwara respectively.
"Mr. Fujiwara, please have some!"
"Thank you."
The three of them sat together, and for a moment the atmosphere became subtly awkward.
To break the ice, Nijika looked at Seiji Fujiwara and spoke up, "Mr. Fujiwara, I've read your 'After School' and 'The Devotion of Suspect X'! They're so well-written! I... I'm a fan!"
She expressed her admiration haltingly, and then asked the question that had been on her mind.
"Um... if I may be so bold as to ask, Mr. Fujiwara... how did you and Ryo meet?"
Upon hearing this question, Yamada Ryo's body tensed up instantly.
Her brain was racing, and she was preparing to come up with a lame excuse like "bumping into each other at the bookstore."
However, before he could even speak, Seiji Fujiwara spoke first, saying casually:
"We met by chance."
"accidental?"
“That’s right. I personally have some interest in music, and by chance, I learned that Ryo is a very talented bassist. After that, we gradually became friends while discussing music,” Seiji Fujiwara explained sincerely.
This reason is perfectly reasonable and flawless.
But both Hongxia and Yamada Ryo were stunned.
"Huh?! Mr. Fujiwara, you're also interested in music?" Nijika asked curiously.
"Yes, I heard from Ryo that you're preparing to form a band?" Fujiwara Seiji smiled and changed the subject to something the girl was interested in. "Actually, I've considered forming a band before, and I even learned to play drums and bass, but unfortunately I couldn't find suitable teammates."
That's not a lie.
Seiji Fujiwara did dream of forming a band, but that was in his past life.
He also learned to play drums and bass, but the system taught him those skills, which were then incorporated into advanced arrangement and composition.
He has mastered the performance techniques of almost all musical instruments.
"really?"
Hongxia's eyes lit up immediately, and like a child showing off a treasure, she began to introduce her band dream.
Seiji Fujiwara maintained a smile throughout, patiently listening to her story and nodding in agreement from time to time.
When Nijigasaki talks about the band's specific structure and the roles of drums, guitar, and bass in the arrangement, Seiji Fujiwara always offers some professional insights.
The girl was secretly surprised.
It's as if Seiji Fujiwara isn't a writer, but a seasoned music producer.
This deeply shocked Yamada Ryo, who was listening in.
She had known Seiji Fujiwara very well these past few days and had never discovered that he had this kind of talent.
How did you suddenly transform into a professional musician?
……
……
"Although I'm just starting out, I'm also learning to compose." Hongxia chuckled. "After all, a band should have its own original compositions, right?"
Fujiwara Seiji nodded upon hearing this.
“Speaking of which,” he said, as if he had just remembered something, “I recently collaborated with Ryo on a piece of music, which is why I took up her time these past few days.”
"Eh?!"
Yamada Ryo was completely bewildered.
When did she collaborate with the lead actor on a piece of music?
Does raising your neck and shouting loudly when you lose your soul count?
She was internally ranting and raving, but dared not show the slightest sign of it on her face.
"So Ryo has been busy composing music lately..." Hongxia glanced at Ryo, whose expression remained unchanged, and her doubts were answered, so she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Then, with a curious look, he asked Fujiwara Seiji, "Excuse me... what kind of piece is it?"
