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

㈣ "Could it be that because I helped Maomao retain [SPACE] in the past, Maomao has such a strange feeling towards me?"

㈡Chen Qi lay in bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He kept thinking about his past actions. Which one of them could possibly make a radio girl like Kaname Lenai suddenly awaken this wonderful feeling like Deng.

⑨ After Chen Qi recalled for a long time, he was surprised to find that whether it was when he and Maomao were training under Grandma, or when he and Maomao persuaded Grandma not to close [SPACE], or many other things that happened later...

It seems that if you randomly pick one and put it on any other normal girl, the plot can greatly increase her favorability.

⑤ But all along, I have only regarded Kaname Rakuna as a girl with a cat-like temperament, and not as a normal girl... Is that why I have always ignored this aspect of the problem?

“No, no, no, after all, Maomao’s definition of ‘like’ should be different from what Aine and the others said, right? How can Maomao know what ‘like’ means? She is just like Deng, she can’t tell the difference between family, love and friendship, right?”

"What Le Nai means by 'like' may not necessarily be what I think, right? She may just be like Deng in the past, unable to distinguish her own feelings..."

Gao Songdeng: "Hmm? Brother? Are you calling me?"

However, just as Chen Qi tossed and turned, muttering to himself, it was the question from Gao Songdeng, who was snuggling in the same bed with him and looking sleepy, that made Chen Qi react.

"It's okay, Deng, I was just talking to myself."

Chen Qi looked at the girl who was squeezed into a small bed with him, and looked like she wanted to stick to him. Chen Qi, who was just thinking about the vague feelings that Le Na had for him, couldn't help but feel a little more subtle in his heart.

"Deng, are you really not going to consider going home to rest? Is it really okay for you to sleep in Aine's little house with me?"

"…I'm fine, brother."

However, Gao Songdeng, who was squeezed on a small bed with Chen Qi and pressed tightly against him, had a slightly rosy face due to the warmth from Chen Qi's body, but he was still unwilling to leave his brother's side.

"As long as I can be with my brother, it doesn't matter where I live."

"When my brother was injured, I was not able to help him much... Now, I want to be by his side anytime, anywhere. No matter what he needs, I can be the first person to know."

No, Deng, isn’t your understanding of your brother’s “needs” a bit incomplete?

Deng, you have to know now that your brother's rationality is not as firm as it used to be. A beautiful girl like you has always been by my side. If it weren't for the brother-sister relationship over the past ten years... guess why Aiyin didn't come to him secretly today?

Of course, Chen Qi also understood that the reason why Aiyin didn't come to see him secretly today was not only because she was tortured badly last night, but also because...

"...Qi, Deng, you two are so noisy."

At this time, Ruoye Mu, who was sleeping on the tatami on the floor, seemed to be awakened by the noise of Chen Qi and the light. The cucumber girl sat up from the tatami with difficulty, rubbing her eyes gently, and asked in a weak voice:

"What's wrong? Qi, if it's crowded, you can sleep with me."

"No... Mu, please get some rest. I just have something on my mind."

Looking at Mu who was sleeping only one step away from his bed, Chen Qi, with mixed feelings, fell into self-doubt for a moment... When did he become like this?

Thinking about it this way, he couldn't seem to blame Kaname and Deng for confusing their feelings. After all, now, even Chen Qi himself couldn't tell what kind of relationship he had with Deng and Mu, the two girls closest to him.

Deng said she was his sister, but whether in the past or now, the distance between him and her was not what a younger sister should have, but they did not deny the relationship between brother and sister, and they no longer resisted treating each other as partners.

If Deng and I hadn't crossed the last level of relationship until now, I'm afraid the title of "brother" would have become a hobby between the two of us...

As for Mu... I can only say that from the very beginning, he and Mu regarded each other as their close friends, which was a misunderstanding in itself. It's just that Mu has now completely awakened.

And the reason why Mr. Ruoye found me this morning was probably because he had already greeted me and knew what his daughter was thinking, so he asked me to move to the house under the name of the Ruoye family, right?

But it was also because of this that Chen Qi had some concerns from beginning to end... After all, he was not sure whether the decision to move to Ruoye's house was Mr. Ruoye's own idea or Mu's own idea.

The former is fine, but if it's the latter...

That only means that Mu is not as otherworldly as she appears to be. On the contrary, she may have had some thoughts about her body for a long time.

However, looking at Mu's still cold and pure face, Chen Qi could not imagine that Mu had the same charming expression as Chu Hua...

If that day really comes, will my sanity be able to withstand such an attack?

"Ding dong."

Just when Chen Qi wanted to drive these thoughts out of his mind and have a good sleep with an empty brain, a shrill doorbell rang suddenly, causing Chen Qi, Deng and Mu in the cabin to subconsciously turn their heads.

Uncle: "…It's so late, is Aine's father back?" Deng asked in a low voice.

０ "No, Uncle Chihaya must have the key. At this point in time... it should be someone we know, right?"

While answering the question about the light, Chen Qi stood up from the bed with a feeling that something was not right. For some reason, he had already vaguely guessed who would come to Aine's house at this time.

8 However, Chen Qi did not hope that his guess would come true, because if so, his troubles would probably be even bigger, and someone would really want to eat him alive.

mustached……

Two "Hey? Lenai-chan? Why are you here? And covered in grass and leaves?"

jiu "Ah! You, are you still injured?! What happened?!"

When Ling Chen Qi put on his clothes and walked out of the cabin, he discovered that Ai Yin, who was wearing pink pajamas, had arrived at the door before him and met the cat girl who came to visit him in the middle of the night.

㈤But Aiyin's exclamation in surprise made Chen Qi, who had just walked out of the hut, tremble in his heart. He immediately ran to the door and came to Aiyin's side.

In front of Chen Qi, the cat girl who was separated by the fence outside the door, with her clothes covered with dirt and various leaves, and even her hair was messy, greeted Chen Qi with a smile the moment she saw him:

"pray."

"Lena?! You—"

However, looking at Yao Lenai, whose body was in a mess and looked like she had fallen from a tree, Chen Qi was also surprised and immediately opened the door.

And at the moment when Chen Qi opened the door, Yao Lenai, who had been unable to contain herself any longer, nimbly moved around and, under the gaze of Aiyin, threw herself on Chen Qi.

"Lena." Chen Qi subconsciously caught Lenai's petite body, looked at Lenai's muddy body, and his eyes couldn't help but show a bit of heartache, and let Lenai act coquettishly in his arms.

This scene was also silently seen by Chihaya Aine who was standing by.

Although Aiyin is also quite jealous, she is not at all wary of the intimate behavior between Kaname, the radio cat, and her boyfriend. She only regards Kaname as a radio junior, or even a pet cat with superb guitar skills.

However, even if Aine didn't mind having Rakuna hug her boyfriend, she couldn't guarantee that her boyfriend felt the same way.

“Lena-chan, what on earth did you do?” Aiyin also suppressed the slight dissatisfaction in her heart, and looked at Lena in Chen Qi’s arms, asking with some concern:

"It's so late, where have you been wandering? And what's wrong with you? Did you sleep in the tree?"

Le Nai: "...Grandma locked me up at home."

Kaname Lenai buried herself in Chen Qi's arms, and after acting coquettishly for a while, she told Aiyin and Chen Qi the reason why she had fallen to this point.

"My grandmother didn't want me and Qi to meet, but I wanted to see Qi, so I escaped."

"Lena, how did you escape?" Faced with this expected result, Chen Qi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Finally, he forced himself to stay calm and asked Lenena tentatively with the last glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, Yao Le Nai did not notice the pleading look in Chen Qi's eyes. Instead, she blinked her innocent big eyes, pointed to the window on the second floor of Ai Yin's house, and said without thinking:

“Use a bed sheet and make it into a rope so you can hang it.”

"But I didn't hold on firmly, so I fell down in the middle, but my grandmother didn't notice."

Chen Qi, Ai Yin: "..."

Yes, grandma didn’t notice it, but when she saw this scene the next day, she could guess with her toes that you were here with me.

Grandma might then suspect that I was the one who instigated Lenai to do this... After all, Lenai looks such a well-behaved child on weekdays, and she has such deep feelings for her grandma and her "home" [SPACE]. Who would have thought that she would actually escape?

Especially combined with what Yao Le Nai said before, it is really hard not to doubt that there is no possibility that Chen Qi is interfering here.

Looking at Yao Lenai, who was leaning against him in his arms with such a warm smile, Chen Qi also knew that he could not wash away the guilt he had suffered at his grandmother's place, even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

But what can I do? Should I send the cat back? Then Lenai will probably become a homeless stray cat.

But, keeping Lenai by my side...is this appropriate?

"Lena, what are you going to do now?" Chen Qi asked Lenai tentatively and gave his own opinion:

"If you're willing, Lena, I'll try to convince Li Xi to let you live in her house, how about that?"

"--don't want."

However, Chen Qi's proposal was rejected by Le Nai flatly. Chen Qi only felt Le Nai holding his arms a little tighter, tightly against his body, and said in a calm tone as if it was a matter of course:

"【SPACE】, I can't go back anymore. My 'home' is only Qi left."

"If Qi is not with me, I will have no home to go to."

Chen Qi: “…”

Well, it has come to this, what else can I say?

Beat him if you want. Think about it, can grandma beat him to death? As long as he doesn't attack Le Nai and doesn't cross the last bottom line, grandma shouldn't do anything to him.

…But why does this sentence sound so familiar? I feel like I have thought the same thing before.

"Aine, could you please take Lenna to take a bath and change clothes?"

In the end, Chen Qi still chose to leave the homeless Yao Le Nai behind, and then pushed the dirty Le Nai to Ai Yin, saying in a rather melancholy tone:

"I have to send a message to my grandma. I can't let her worry too much. I'm worried."

"Also, if Lenai wants to move in, then the space in the cabin will be too tight. I may have to find a new place to live."

"...Brother Qi, do you still want to leave?"

However, Chen Qi's words also made Aiyin's heart slightly jump. She just held Le Na's hand, and her expression also had a little more sadness. She looked at Chen Qi with grievance and couldn't help but said:

"If it doesn't work...you can come to my room. Anyway, we are..."

“——That’s not possible, Aine. I can’t leave the impression of a gigolo to uncle and auntie forever, right?”

Chen Qi also found it funny and gently rubbed Ain's pink hair. He knew that Ain was in a very low mood. After all, it had only been two days since he and Ain got back together and their relationship warmed up, but now they were going to separate again.

Although living in the house under the name of the Ruoye family can be regarded as living off the Ruoye family... but Chen Qi has no other good solution now. If he wants to find a house that can accommodate him, Mu, Deng, and Yao Lenai, the monthly rent is really not small.

It is really not appropriate to keep troubling Mrs. Chihaya to take care of so many of their lives. Besides, as for grandma... Chen Qi also needs to make his attitude clear to grandma that he is capable of taking better care of Yūrana.

"It's okay. In fact, I already have a place to live. If you feel lonely, you can always come to us."

"In the future, when I can afford to buy our own house, Aiyin, I will take you over as soon as possible. How about that?"

"...Since Brother Qi said so, okay."

Although she was reluctant, Aiyin, who was feeling uneasy, still chose to accept Chen Qi's promise.

Although she was not very sure about what would happen if Deng Hemu lived with her brother Qi...but if Lenai-chan was there, nothing extreme would happen, right?

Uh... But what's going on with this strong feeling of uneasiness? I feel like Brother Qi will be eaten up if I'm not around. Why is that? ! 5

"Lena-chan, let's go take a shower first. Come upstairs later and I'll put band-aids on your abrasions." After a while, Aiyin had some ideas in her mind. Her originally tangled expression quickly changed back. She took Lena's hand and said to her in a friendly manner with a harmless smile:⑦

"By the way, does Renai-chan have any favorite colors? I can lend you a set of my underwear and clothes. Many of them are designed and cut by me, and they look very nice~"

"Okay." Yao Le Nai did not resist, but just let Ai Yin lead her to the bathroom, but her pair of eyes of different colors never left Chen Qi's figure from beginning to end.

In the future...will I live with Qi? ③

No, there are lights, and that dangerous "cucumber"... I feel like it should be interesting.

...

"Hey? Moving?"

"Yes, Lenai is homeless now, and we are the only ones who can provide Lenai with a place to stay." After returning to the cabin, Chen Qi also shared the news about Lenai with Deng and Mu. Soon, he cast his eyes on Mu, who was a little dazed, and said with a wry smile:

"Mu, I may have to trouble you to tell Mr. Ruoye about my decision... Would you find it difficult?"

"--Won't."

However, Mu came to her senses and shook her head firmly, with a smile on her face that she could hardly suppress. But soon, after Mu lowered his head slightly without leaving any trace, she completely restrained her smile.

"If you're willing, I'll tell Dad right away."

"Thank you, Mu." Chen Qi nodded gently, and after letting out a long breath, he stood up again and walked towards Aiyin's house.

"I'm going to go see if Lenna is done washing. Lenna still has some scratches on her body. I have to go help Aine."

Gao Songdeng: "Well...Brother, come back early."

Gao Song Deng and Mu also watched Chen Qi leave the hut. However, it was not until Chen Qi left that Deng's eyes turned to Ruo Ye Mu, who had taken out his mobile phone and texted his father. He could not help but ask:

"Xiao Mu...can I ask you something?"

"Well, if Uncle Ruoye is willing to lend his house to my brother, and he is willing to help my brother like this, doesn't he have any conditions?"

㈧〈∨㈤㈦㈥ˇ≈㈥㈢㈣㈣㈡招■∞秫≡$群：睦: “…”

However, Mu did not directly answer Gao Songdeng's words. She was just stunned for a moment, and her mind echoed the time when she could no longer bear Qi's injury and finally found her father again. After she expressed her feelings bluntly, her father said to her with relief.

"It seems that, Mu, you have finally faced up to your feelings and understood what you want."

"In that case, Mu, if you still find it hard to accept that boy's so-called harem, you should learn to take the initiative."

"If you need anything, just come to dad. I will do my best to help you achieve it."
