They are in the music show, but I am a stranger to them

"Well, I used to have some interactions with Youxi and the others, and I watched their band come together little by little." Faced with the sudden voice beside him, Chen Qi, who was staring intently, answered subconsciously.

But soon, Chen Qi realized that the source of the cold voice was definitely not Xingge. He subconsciously turned around and faced the expressionless Yamada Ryo and his eyes that showed no emotion at all.

"cold?!"

Chen Qi was startled a little when Liang suddenly came from behind him, but he quickly forced himself to calm down and smiled at Liang:

"Liang, when did you come out from the backstage? Where are Hongxia and the others?"

"...Hongxia is very disappointed. Qi, I thought you would come to the backstage to comfort her first." Liang raised her head slightly and stared straight into Chen Qi's eyes, but at this moment her mind was not entirely on Hongxia, she had other things she cared about more.

"Also, Qi, why did I just meet the store manager backstage? And the clothes the store manager was wearing... looked like a performance costume?"

"And when the store manager saw me, he ran away in a panic. What are you planning to do?"

"…Do what I think can help Hong Xia."

Liang's questions also made Chen Qi realize that his plan had been discovered by Liang. But now, Chen Qi no longer wanted to hide his plan from Liang, so he admitted it directly and said:

"Liang, could you please ask Hongxia to come to the audience? I have a song I want to give her."

"—you can't go."

However, the guess in her heart was verified at this moment. Liang did not dwell on why Chen Qi could still escape her eyes. She just spoke solemnly to Chen Qi with a serious expression.

"Why?" Facing Liang's still resistant attitude, Chen Qi blinked a little unexpectedly and couldn't help asking: "Liang, don't you want Hong Xia to get out of this endless internal friction?"

However, Liang didn't buy it at all and said calmly, "I'm not speaking as a friend, Qi. I'm speaking as a doctor's daughter to a patient who I need to supervise."

"Qi, I don't care how you avoided my inspection this week, but I won't allow you to overdraw your body like this anymore. Your injuries haven't healed yet, you need to rest well instead of going on stage with injuries again and again."

"You are being so stubborn, it won't move Hongxia. It will only make Hongxia think that it's because of her lack of ability that she makes you clean up our messes again and again."

As if he felt that his words were not enough to make Chen Qi give up this idea, Liang also suppressed the trembling in his heart, forced himself to have a blank expression, and said to Chen Qi coldly:

"Remember what I said before? If you do this again, I will break up with you..."

But before Liang could utter the last word "hand over", Chen Qi's outstretched palm gently blocked Liang's lips, forcing her to swallow the unfinished words.

In the darkness, a glimmer of light seemed to flash across Chen Qi's eyes, which were as dark as the deep sea. He said in an extremely gentle voice:

"...Don't make things difficult for me, okay? Cool."

"Don't always pick on my weaknesses, okay? Liang. Even though I know you won't do that, I will still be scared and sad."

puff.

At that moment, Liang stared blankly at the face of Chen Qi in front of her, who had a bitter smile, was trying to suppress the pain, but was still trying to express his gentleness to her. When she heard his soft voice floating into her ears, Liang... felt a sharp pain in her heart.

After the stinging pain, there was a violent heartbeat, which was so fast that Liang's cheeks began to heat up uncontrollably.

This is...what does it feel like?

Mingming Qi was insisting on going against her own will, so why didn't she feel sad at all, but instead her heartbeat was speeding up?

From childhood to adulthood, Liang has always insisted on her own personality. To put it nicely, she is a rock girl who practices her own philosophy of life. To put it bluntly, she is a weirdo who does her own thing and can only make others accommodate her wishes.

No matter how big or small Liang wants to do, no one can persuade her to give up. From small things like having no money to buy an ice cream to big things like planning her future life, Liang never wants others to interfere, nor does she need others to say too much.

"If I lose my personality, what's the difference between me and being dead?" This is the principle that Liang has been practicing in the past 17 years of his life.

Therefore, Liang had set her bottom line early on in terms of her requirements for her significant other - he must be a gentle person who would accommodate her all the time, would not dissuade her from giving up, and would not hinder her from maintaining her individuality, and must be without temper.

Because only in this way, her life will not be bound by love and marriage, and she can still maintain her passion and realize her ideals after marriage.

4 Liang couldn't imagine what her future would be like if she lost her personality and became an ordinary housewife... This would be more painful than killing her.

8 And the Chen Qi in front of him, whether it is his central air-conditioning personality or his harem values... he should not be the type of person he likes.

⒉ Given the difference in values ​​between him and her, it should be difficult for them to even be friends.

④But...why now?

3. Why does my heart beat faster for this man in front of me, who never gives in to me and always goes against me?

3. No, it's not just a quickening of the heartbeat.

I am actually still...feeling sorry for the guy in front of me.

Wu Is this really the charm of "love"?

Is this the feeling of "love" that can change a woman in love beyond recognition in novels and TV dramas?

"Okay, Liang, please ask Hongxia and the others to come to the audience and listen to the song I gave her, okay?"

"……Um."

However, Chen Qi had no idea that the momentary vulnerability he had just shown had stirred up such a huge wave in Liang's heart. After receiving Liang's seemingly compromising answer, he turned around and headed backstage.

He now also had to go meet up with Le Nai, Xing Ge, Guang Jing and Ms. PA to prepare for the upcoming performance.

But at this moment, compared to Hong Xia's situation, Chen Qi was more worried about another girl...

In the dim backstage corridor, Chen Qi silently picked up his mobile phone and looked at the message named [Love Sound]. After he sent it, it only showed "read", but there was no reply to his message.

[Ain, are you still willing to listen to this song of mine? ]

...This message was sent two hours ago, but Chen Qi has not received a response until now.

So, an hour ago, Chen Qi, who could no longer sit still, sent messages to all the girls he knew, asking these girls to help him find Aiyin, or at least bring her to the performance.

But, an hour passed and there was still no response.

Aine...are we really going to abandon each other like this in the end?

Zhong)ｑUNＮ: ②○〓⑼４÷[蕶<∷⒋ Reference Wu⑹咝……

"Aine-chan!"

An hour ago, Takamatsu Tomori, who was from the same team as Nagasaki Motoyo and Shiina Tachikawa, and Toyokawa Shoko and others from another team, were searching for Chihaya Aine at Tokyo's Haneda International Airport.

Finally, Takamatsu Deng, Su Shi and Riki finally met Chihaya Aine in the waiting hall of the airport, who had been sitting there for who knows how long with a dazed look on her face.

“Tomorin…you guys…”

"Aine-chan! Are you really leaving?! Why are you doing this!?"

However, Takamatsu Deng did not give Aine any chance to explain. This usually harmless little animal rushed to Aine and took hold of one of Aine's hands, wanting to pull her up.

It's a pity that Takamatsu Deng's strength is not that great, and Aine's resistance is very strong. When Deng tried to drag Aine away from the airport, Aine's body did not move at all.

"Deng-chan, don't make such a tasteless attempt."

However, after seeing this scene, Nagasaki Suyo, who was standing by, understood Aine’s thoughts at the moment. She sighed, patted the sweaty and panting Deng’s shoulder, and said softly:

“If Aine-chan doesn’t want to, we can’t take her back by force, right?”

“Huh? Why not?” Shiina Riki seemed to have some objections to Su Shi’s point of view, and he immediately approached Aine with his hands rubbing, as if he wanted to take Aine away by force.

But luckily, Riki was just pretending. Even though she was much stronger than Aine, if Aine really put up a fierce resistance, it would still be difficult for her to suppress Aine.

What's more, this is an airport. If they rashly do something like kidnapping, it will be difficult for them to escape.

"So, what on earth were you thinking?!"

Shiina Riki was rubbing his hands together, and at the same time, he managed to control his temper and said to Chihaya Aine, who had been keeping her head down and remained silent:

"You promised Deng from the beginning to form a band for life, but now you want to escape?"

"Even if you don't care about the band, you should at least care about Chen Qi, right? Are you really planning to abandon him and run off to England? Are you throwing away the year-long relationship you had with him?!"

"——The only thing I don't want is for Li Xi to say that!"

However, if Shiina Riki hadn't said anything, it would have been fine. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he touched the most uncomfortable part of Chihaya Aine's heart. The next second, Aine, who had been keeping her head down and silent, suddenly stood up from her seat, staring at Riki with an unwilling look as if she was trying hard to hold back her tears and gritting her teeth.

For a moment, the tit-for-tat between the two girls, one black and one pink, attracted the attention of some other people around, and Nagasaki Suyo had no choice but to politely ask these onlookers to leave.

As for Takamatsu Deng, she was unable to do anything and could only stand there timidly, watching with worry the argument between Aine and Riki, whose contradictions could not be concealed at all.

“Lixi, it was Brother Qi who personally saved you. He dragged his injured body to find you for you. Lixi, your feelings have been reciprocated by Brother Qi!” Chihaya Aine clenched her fists tightly with an unwilling look on her face. She wanted to lower her voice, but with tears pouring out, she could no longer control herself.

"But what about me...what about my feelings? Brother Qi has never confessed his love to me..."

"I'm obviously the first person to like him, and Brother Qi obviously knows it himself, but why am I the last one to be ignored until now? Why can't I wait for Brother Qi's confession until now?"

"Even now...Brother Qi hasn't come to see me on his own..."

As she spoke, Aine could no longer suppress the grievance in her heart. She wiped her tears stubbornly while mumbling to Shiina Riki:

"I... am not needed at all, right? People who love Brother Qi don't need someone like me."

"Brother Qi is loved by so many people now. I am no longer important to you, right?"

During this week, Chihaya Aine thought a lot about Chen Qi's harem and what Su Shi had said to her. She would never forget Chen Qi's words.

Aiyin had to admit that what Nagasaki Motoyo said was right. Her heart was already filled with his image. She was thinking about him all the time. Even her final hesitation in leaving Japan was related to him.

Even if I escape to England, I will never forget Brother Qi. It will be hard for me to meet someone like Brother Qi who once gave me so much comfort and tenderness.

Even if she really met him, she would probably think of him as nothing more than a substitute for Brother Qi... She could no longer forget him.

The reason why Chihaya Aine came to the airport early and acted as if she was ready to leave Japan at any time was actually to wait for her brother Qi to take her back.

This was the test she left for Chen Qi, and it was also the final judgment that would determine whether she would leave Japan.

If Brother Qi really cared about her, he would definitely rush back to her side at the first opportunity, just like before, regardless of everything, hold her in his arms, patiently comfort her, persuade her, and take her back.

If Brother Qi hadn't come...

Then, even if Aine can't forget him, she will completely give up. ⑥

I...will not love someone who doesn't cherish her.

That’s why when Aine saw that it was Takamatsu Touma and the others who came to look for her, she was so silent and so shocked… The person she was looking forward to the most, didn’t come to take her back in person after all.

Chihaya Aine no longer has any reason to stay in Japan.

"We all need Aiyin-chan!"

However, just as Ain finished speaking, Takamatsu Deng, who was also deeply touched, suddenly burst out with his great potential at this moment. When Li Xi didn't know how to answer for a while, he shouted his true feelings to Ain at the top of his lungs.

No, it was not just her. What Deng shouted out at this moment were also the innermost thoughts of his brother.

“Brother, he also cherishes Aine-chan the most!”

“Brother likes Aine-chan, we all know that! I, the reason why I always interfered with Aine-chan and brother’s time alone was because I was afraid that Aine-chan would snatch brother away!”

“Aine-chan is not useless, and Aine-chan is not dispensable! Without Aine-chan, my brother will not be happy!”

In desperation, Takamatsu Deng even told Chihaya Aion about his past actions and his anxious and fearful mentality at that time. At this moment, he completely faced up to his past "sins".

And Shiina Riki also reacted at this time. Facing the silent and tearful Aine in front of him, he was slightly speechless, but still gritted his teeth and continued speaking along with Takamatsu Deng's words.

"——Deng is right. I was jealous of you at the beginning, so I targeted you everywhere."

Although he was very reluctant and not used to saying such things, in a hurry, Shiina Riki still hardened his heart and closed his eyes tightly, and said to Aine with gritted teeth:

"When I first learned that guy taught you how to play the guitar, and you even embezzled the song he wrote for you, I was so jealous that I almost went crazy."

"That guy has never been so gentle to me. He gave all his gentleness to you. What on earth are you dissatisfied with?!"

"I……"

However, what Deng and Li Xi said also made Aine stagnate for a long time. Listening to them expressing their jealousy and sense of crisis towards her, for some reason, the bitterness and annoyance in Aine's heart seemed to have dissipated a little...

At this time, Nagasaki Suyo, who had already driven away the onlookers and returned to the three people, also keenly sensed Aine's hesitation, and immediately stepped forward and said:

"——Aine-chan, Aki really cherishes you. He didn't come this time not because he didn't want to win you back, but because he wanted you to hear his feelings for you with your own ears."

"You should have read the message that Aqi sent you, right? Didn't we agree that we will make a decision after watching Aqi's performance?"

——If there’s no way to bring Aine-chan back, I’ll never have a chance to make Aki accept me again!

This time, Nagasaki Suyo, who had made up her mind, also used 120% of her emotional intelligence. Looking at the still hesitant Aine, she also suppressed the restlessness in her heart and said something against her will:

“Maybe the song that Akari sang this time was written to win back you, Aine-chan.”

"Aine-chan, you really don't want to listen to the song that Aki confesses to you?"

"I……"

As expected, Chihaya Aine, who was hit by Su Shi's words, showed a strong wavering expression on her face. She was very tempted, but she seemed to be unable to bring herself to do so. In this situation, she went back quietly...

At this time, accompanied by a ringing sound, the airport broadcast a soft female staff member's voice was heard. Search 〓→Search ″QｕＮ:⑨＿《④⑧◇②④③∈〉③∪◎０⑤
