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

For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene became a little weird. The reason why Chen Qi asked this was naturally because of the disbandment of Crychic.

Although everything seemed to be repeated as if it was a predetermined fate, the disbandment of Crychic still brought some comfort to Chen Qi, and that was Mu's change.

Although Mu Yihan said the famous line "I have never felt happy about forming a band", what made Chen Qi happy was that he could hear that the emotion in Mu's words was completely different from the original. She did not really feel that way. She just said this in anger to excuse herself at that time.

Therefore, Chen Qi now wants to know what Mu will think of this alternative MYGO band that only replaced Xiangzi with Aiyin and did not join Maomao?

However, after a long silence, Mu's belated reply quietly reached Chen Qi's ears:

"…I have no objection."

"Huh?" Chen Qi asked a little confused.

"This band was specially formed by Deng in order to convey her voice to Qi." Mu replied in a low voice while applying iodine to Chen Qi's wound:

"That's why I agreed to join the band. I hope Qi can hear the sound of the lights and feel more relaxed."

"Besides that, having fun in a band is not important to me."

"I only stayed in this band for Qi."

Whether it's this band or Crychic, I only stayed because of you.

However, on Chen Qi's body, the doll girl who said this couldn't help but reveal a faint smile. It's a pity that the young man under her didn't notice her rare smile.

However, Chen Qi still heard the deep concern in Mu's words. After a brief silence, Chen Qi asked with a bitter tone:

"Is it worth it? Mu, Deng wants to form a band for life."

"Are you going to stay in the band for the rest of your life just to let the lights' sound reach me? You don't need to force yourself to do something like this."

"...But apart from Deng, I can't find any reason to join any other band." Mu was a little stubborn on this question and responded with a smile:

"At least for me, the reason for the lights is more acceptable to me. As long as the lights' singing is used for prayers one day, I will have a reason to stay in this band."

Unless, on the day of the future band’s performance, I feel that the singing of the lamp did not reach you... or it did not lighten the burden in your heart, but instead aggravated your scars.

Then at that time, I will leave this band forever like Qi Ni and join Xiangzi's band.

Although Xiang has hurt you, and although there are irreversible conflicts between Xiang and me...but at least, Xiang is thinking about Qi, and Xiang formed this band to atone for his sins, and this reason is enough.

Then, Qi, I will always be your and Xiang's guardian, guarding your happiness...

……

"Click."

"Xiao Mu, you finally came out."

The door of the cabin had just opened. Outside the cabin, Su Shi, Aine and Takamatsu Deng, who had been wandering here for a long time, surrounded Mu as soon as they saw him walk out of the room. An expression of relief flashed across the faces of the three of them.

It's no wonder they were nervous, after all, what Mu and Chen Qi were going to do was too intimate. The three of them put themselves in their shoes and imagined the scene. They didn't dare to guarantee whether they could still maintain their composure in such an awkward and ambiguous atmosphere.

Leaving aside Su Shi for now, Aine and Deng both thought that they didn't have strong self-control, and they might have run away from the hut with red faces halfway through.

But Mu was different. Nearly half an hour had passed since she and Chen Qi entered the door. The longer the three of them waited, the more they felt that every passing minute and second was tormenting.

Would applying the medicine take so much time? These two people were not doing anything strange in the room, were they?

This thought echoed particularly clearly in Aine's mind.

Especially when Aiyin realized that she had no idea about Chen Qi's former teammates, and had no idea what they thought of her brother Qi, she had a strong feeling of being surrounded on all sides.

Although Su Shi's suppression of Aine is very strong, for some reason, Aine always feels that the low-key Wakaba Mutsu might be the biggest threat to her.

After all, why didn't Brother Qi choose her or Deng, but chose Xiao Mu to help him do something that only close people can do!

Before Mu returned to them, Aine deliberately asked Takamatsu Deng, who had a dazed look on his face and seemed to be lost in some kind of thought, about Mu:

"Tomorin, do you know what the relationship between Xiaomu and Qi was like in the past? Were they close in their previous band?"

"...No, Xiaomu didn't talk much when she was in Crychic. She was Xiangzi's childhood sweetheart, and she wasn't very familiar with me and my brother at first."

When asked this question by Aine, Takamatsu Deng tried hard to recall the harmless Mutsu in his memory, and answered with some hesitation:

"But later, Brother Qi wrote a song specifically for Xiao Mu according to her wishes..."

"I have never been able to resonate with that song, but since that day, Xiaomu and I seem to have a much better relationship than before, and she has been in more contact with her brother."

Wrote a song specifically for Mu?!

When she received this message, Aiyin was completely certain of her guess! Ruoye Mu was definitely someone she had to be wary of!

If you are not careful, Xiaomu may become a more threatening existence than Xiangzi without knowing it. This kind of girl who never shows her emotions on the surface is too easy to arouse a person's desire to protect her. Maybe Brother Qi paid attention to Xiaomu because of this!

Damn it, why did I go to study in the UK in the first place!

If I had met Brother Qi earlier, I might have known everything about Crychic, and my relationship wouldn't have fallen so far behind now.

Just as Aiyin was brainstorming and increasingly resenting her unwise behavior of running to England, Ruoye Mu finally reappeared in front of everyone. Under everyone's concerned gazes, he remained calm and said softly:

"…It's over. Qi is resting."

"Also, I have to go back now. The curfew is about to expire. The medicine on Qi's body hasn't dried yet. You guys, don't disturb him, lest you make Qi feel embarrassed."

"Hey? Is Xiaomu going home now?"

Su Shi was a little surprised that Mu left so decisively. She thought that Mu would stay here even if it meant violating the curfew - at least, if Su Shi were given the choice, she would definitely do so.

But Mu did not give any explanation for this. He just shook his head slightly, left Aine's house on his own, and walked towards the distant street alone.

Mu crossed the street alone, but soon she saw a familiar black car slowly stop in front of her.

However, this time Mu did not wait for the bodyguard or the driver to open the door for her. On the contrary, the back seat window slowly lowered, revealing a familiar face that made Mu's eyes shrink slightly.

"dad……"

"Mu." A middle-aged man with a particularly impressive appearance, whose smile was contagious but whose expression was particularly serious, smiled faintly at his daughter.

As Mu silently entered the back seat and the car slowly started, Mr. Ruoye pretended to be nonchalant and said something that made Mu's heart skip a beat:

"Did you visit your friends today?"

Mu: “…Yeah.”

"What kind of friend? Mu? Opposite sex or same sex?" Mr. Ruoye did not seem to intend to end the topic there and continued to ask, but there was no smile on his face at all.

"…Just a friend from the same band, the home of a new band member." Mu's eyes slightly avoided, but he still calmly answered his father's question, saying:

"Her name is Chihaya Aine, and I visited her with Suyo."

"That's right."

At this point, the conversation between the father and daughter had come to an end. Mu was secretly glad that her father did not ask any more unnecessary questions. She was really worried that her lies would be seen through by her father.

If her father found out that she had been in contact with Qi for such a long time, she couldn't imagine whether her father would misunderstand something and do something bad to Qi...

However, Mu, who thought she had managed to remain calm, did not know that her every move was now being seen by her father, who, as a comedian, had experienced all kinds of big scenes and was extremely good at sensitively sensing the atmosphere and every micro-expression of each person.

To Mu's father, the slightest change on Mu's seemingly calm face was like the answer written on his face.

Silly daughter, you don’t really think that because dad is away all year round, I don’t know anything, do you?

The formation and disbandment of Crychic, and the young man I have been in contact with for the past six months, I used to turn a blind eye. After all, it is not easy for my daughter, who is usually very strictly disciplined, to have a few friends.

However, after six months of persistence, she even stopped attending scheduled classes and started lying... These were things that her daughter had never dared to do before.

Was it all because of that boy? What had that boy taught his precious daughter in the past six months?

And, does he have any other purpose in contacting Mu like this? Does the opposite sex who is worthy of his daughter's persistent help have any intentions towards her?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was necessary to investigate. He silently picked up his phone and sent a message to a number of numbers:

[Please help me check this person named "Chen Qi", from his life experience, interpersonal relationships, etc., focusing on his abilities and family situation. ]

He couldn't allow anyone to have such evil intentions towards his daughter. He wanted to see what kind of ability this guy had who could make his daughter so obsessed.

Chapter 52: A "Date" with Su Shi? The Darkness in Gao Songdeng's Eyes

At night, on the upper floors of a high-end apartment building, Nagasaki Suyo, who had returned to her home, lay on her soft bed and couldn't sleep all night. This was quite a strange thing for this "early sleeper" who never stayed up late.

Facing the empty room he was in, Su Shi silently cast his gaze towards the ceiling, but his mind couldn't help but think of Chen Qi... and Gao Songdeng.

Now, Aqi and Xiaodeng should be sleeping together in Aine's little house, right?

After all, they are brother and sister, and Aqi said that he and Xiaodeng have been sleeping in the same room for more than ten years. They have become accustomed to each other's presence. For Xiaodeng, the backbone of the band, sleeping with her long-lost brother should be the best way to comfort her, right?

In this case... it's also a good thing. The more Deng is attached to his brother Aqi, the more likely Aqi is to return to the band and be with them for his sister, right?

However, Aqi returned to the band just for the lights...

Why do I always feel so uneasy? Can Aqi, who chose to stay only for one person, and the band that was maintained only for one person, really continue as he wished?

The scene of Chen Qi and Gao Song Deng snuggling together kept echoing in her mind. She was thinking about the scene where Chen Qi returned because of the lamp. For some reason, Nagasaki Sushi's heart became more and more irritated and uneasy. While tossing and turning, she had to pick up her mobile phone.

But Su Shi picked up the phone but did not open any video software to kill time. She unconsciously clicked on Line and looked at the blank record with the note "Aqi". She felt a little happy in her heart, but she couldn't help but hesitate.

This contact information was obtained by Su Shi from Chen Qi before leaving Aiyin's house today. Because Chen Qi changed his original mobile phone card, the previous contact information was naturally no longer useful.

This time, it was a new beginning. Su Shi looked at the blank chat history, and was also considering what to do with the first message he sent to Chen Qi.

She wanted to send a message like "Aqi, haven't you slept either?", but she deleted it quickly.

This sentence seems a bit ambiguous, as if I couldn't sleep because I missed him... I'd better not scare Aqi.

So, are you there? No, it always feels too ordinary.

After thinking it over again and again, Su Shi, who hadn't made up his mind for half an hour, couldn't help but start to get anxious. Thinking that if he didn't send it out, Aqi might really fall asleep, Su Shi chose to express his inner thoughts in the most straightforward way.

[Aqi, I can't sleep today, would you like to go out with me to relax? ]

However, as soon as he sent it out, Su Shi regretted it.

Inviting Ah Qi to go out with me in the dead of night? Wasn't it too self-willed to ask for this? What if Ah Qi was already asleep?

Especially since there is a Deng next to Aqi, what should I do if Deng is not asleep either and she sees the message I sent and thinks that I am going to take her brother away?

I clearly no longer had such thoughts since I realized that Xiaoxiang liked Aqi.

No, withdraw, withdraw quickly——

However, just when Su Shi reacted quickly and was about to withdraw the message, she found that the message had become "read" at some point.

Along with the message "the other party is typing", Su Shi soon received a brief response from Chen Qi on the other end.

Chen Qi: [Okay. Su Shi, where do you want to go?]

Su Shi: [Just, just downstairs from my house, my address is here...]

It was really sent out. Only after his home address was exposed did Su Shi suddenly come to his senses, immediately got up from his bed, and walked quickly towards the dressing table.

Coming to the dressing table and looking at herself in the mirror, Su Shi immediately picked up the comb and combed her hair. At the same time, her eyes were looking at the many cosmetics and lipsticks that her mother had bought for her, and she hesitated for a moment.

Otherwise, why not put on some light makeup yourself?

However, Su Shi quickly dispelled this idea. It was not because she did not know how to put on makeup, but because she remembered what Chen Qi had said to her before - he said that he liked the more natural version of herself.

If I pretend to be someone I am not good enough in front of Aqi, he will become uncomfortable with me and then he will laugh at me for sounding like an elementary school girl.

not to mention……

"I am pretty like this, right?"

Su Shi looked at herself in the mirror. Although she was not wearing any makeup and her hair was not combed completely smoothly, she did not feel that she looked sloppy. Instead, she created a kind of easy-going and approachable temperament.

Even though she was wearing home pajamas, she looked very decent. Although the pajamas were loose, the rise and fall of her proud chest were still faintly outlined.

"Will I, like this, make Aqi feel more comfortable?"

Even though she was just mumbling to herself, the self-admiring girl already had the answer in her heart, and she couldn't help but reveal a smile that came from the heart.

That feeling of...happiness and security returning to me is really good.

……

At night, Su Shi changed into more decent clothes and waited for Chen Qi downstairs of the apartment early in the morning. It was only after a long time that she saw a familiar figure coming, and her eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.

"Aqi."

"Su Shi." Chen Qi, who was still wearing the classic black jacket and white shirt, came in front of Su Shi, waved at the girl who was unexpectedly simple today, and trotted over.

Soon, although they had reunited, they were still in close contact with each other for the first time in a long time, and they all smiled. However, Su Shi was not immediately overwhelmed by the longing and joy in his heart, and he still cautiously tested:

"Well, asking you to come out today was really sudden."

"Xiao Deng, do you have any objections? Aqi, you don't have to force yourself."
