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

Gao Songdeng still remembers how happy she was when a figure suddenly appeared in her closed world. She wanted to give everything to the only person who understood her. The feeling is still so clear to this day.

"I have been unable to express my longing for you, and today I am walking alone on the cold streets."

"I can't even remember where this is..."

"In this endless night, I have only one wish."

The outburst of emotions came without warning, and it was almost impossible for people to react. Gao Songdeng's slightly trembling singing with a crying tone suddenly penetrated into the hearts of the unsuspecting people and hit the softest part of their hearts.

"Light up the starless sky with dazzling light."

"To a place where you can never go back, even the things that have been abandoned——"

"And regain new life, and will surely light up tomorrow."

Yes, the light that lights up my starless sky - brother, you are the one who lights up my world.

Perhaps because of her deep love, Gao Songdeng's eyes, which were sparkling like a sky full of stars, were unconsciously covered with a layer of moist mist, but she still suppressed her emotions and continued to try hard to convey her voice to Chen Qi.

"Meet you in the starry sky."

"How nice it would be if we could still meet with the same feeling as back then."

"Tears shed for a past that can never be returned to..."

"And regain new life, and will surely light up tomorrow."

...Is this the voice of the lamp singing to Chen Qi?

Even though Xiangzi couldn't fully understand Deng's mood in the audience, he could still feel that every word of the lyrics contained Deng's infinite longing and dependence on him.

Xiangzi could imagine how sad Deng, a child who was closed-minded and only allowed her brother to enter her world, must have been when she lost the only person who had ever stepped into her world during the six months that Chen Qi had been missing...

The heartache, the reluctance, the desire to do everything in one's power to get him back, the emotions contained in them are so touching.

Thinking of this, Xiangzi unconsciously turned his gaze to Chen Qi beside him...but he found that in the darkness, he couldn't even see the expression on Chen Qi's face.

She only noticed that Chen Qi's hands were clenched tightly.

Also, his body was trembling slightly the whole time.

He must have felt bad in his heart. Listening to his sister telling him how much she missed him in the past six months, as a brother who regarded his sister as his most precious treasure, how could he not be moved?

At this moment, Gao Songdeng's singing on the stage... no, her recollection did not stop. Instead, these memories turned into the emotions in her singing at this moment, and were conveyed sentence by sentence to the person she wanted to convey to.

"When I can't fall asleep, I'll be happy if you can hold my hand gently."

"If the dawn comes, please whisper in my ear, even if it's a lie."

"The wish has never been fulfilled, and tonight, it leaves with the wish."

"Disappear...never come back..."

As if she was recalling some painful memories, Gao Songdeng could no longer suppress her hesitation and crying. She even slowly closed her eyes, as if she didn't want to see the scene that broke her heart again.

But Chen Qi understood...what scene Deng had dreamed about.

When they separated half a year ago, didn’t Chen Qi know how much harm his departure would cause to the lights?

But Chen Qi had no choice. Deng felt pain and torture for the separation from his brother. When Chen Qi left home, wasn't he also aware that he would be separated forever from this home and family that had given him warmth?

But, I'm sorry... Deng. I really didn't mean to make you feel painful.

I really, really had to leave.

I really don't want you to bear the huge pressure of immorality.

You can be ignorant, but I really can't...

Unconsciously, he looked at his precious sister on the stage, suppressing his tears and pretending to be strong. Chen Qi also unconsciously grabbed his chest with his hands, relying on the slight pain to suppress his emotions.

He could feel his heart wavering, trembling violently...if this continued, he might really soften his heart.

For the first time, Chen Qi wanted to escape, escape from his most beloved sister, who had given him all the love.

As if she had sensed Chen Qi's hesitation, Gao Songdeng on the stage became more and more emotional. She could no longer suppress her tears, and told her brother everything she had, word by word!

“It’s a miracle to meet you in the starry sky.”

"It has disappeared in the vast sea of ​​people and can no longer be found."

"That night when I cried for the past that could never be returned..."

"Say goodbye, tomorrow will surely be bright."

At this moment, Gao Songdeng, who had closed his eyes for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the person he wanted to convey his thoughts.

But at this moment, Gao Songdeng, who had been trying hard to hold back her tears, finally couldn't hold back any more. As that crystal clear tear, filled with countless thoughts, fell, her thoughts for Chen Qi finally reached their peak!

For the first time, Takamatsu Deng's trembling voice was as anxious as if chasing the back of someone who was about to leave. He poured all the emotions brewing in his heart into the lyrics that seemed to make everyone's soul cry.

"I am just such a tiny constellation."

"You noticed my presence, thank you--"

At that moment, Takamatsu Deng, who sang out the words that she most wanted to say to her brother, could no longer stop her tears from streaming down her face. She expressed her reluctance to let him go and her best efforts to keep him.

Thank you...brother, thank you for coming into my world, and thank you for lighting up that light for my world.

I'm sorry, I really can't say "goodbye" to you as you wish.

So, please allow me to replace "goodbye" with "thank you".

I'm sorry, I can never forget you.

The only thing I can do is to tell you how important you are in my life.

At that moment, facing Takamatsu Deng's defenseless soul-smashing blow, countless people in the audience were infected by this emotion and burst into tears.

Even on the stage, Aiyin, Li Xi, and Su Shi all had tears in their eyes, and they were all touched by Takamatsu Deng's heart-piercing singing, which touched the softest part of their hearts.

Perhaps, they were unable to empathize with Gao Songdeng as well, but they all knew very well that feeling of being given warmth at their most vulnerable moment... that was a heartbeat that they would never forget in their entire lives.

But it was this unforgettable heartbeat that turned into a sharp blade towards the person they cared about. At the moment when Chen Qi was almost unable to resist, it pierced directly into Chen Qi's heart, leaving a deep mark...

"Pfft."

The sudden violent heartbeat almost made Chen Qi feel a sting. He had tears in his eyes a second ago, but the moment he tightly covered his chest, his face suddenly turned pale, and his pupils shrank slightly, as if he was unwilling to believe his reaction at that moment.

Was I just... moved?

When the lamp shed tears, when the lamp conveyed its feelings to you, did your heart waver again?

Obviously, I have let it go.

I should have known this was impossible.

"Chen Qi?!"

Suddenly, Xiangzi was stunned. She had never expected that Chen Qi beside her would suddenly run away. She instinctively wanted to reach out and grab him, but because she was a beat too slow, she failed to pull that person successfully.

And it was such a scene that was clearly captured by the seriousness of Mu, who was playing the accompaniment with trepidation on the stage.

The moment Chen Qi ran away, Mu's eyes couldn't help but shrink a little, and even the pick in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously.

It was as if her glass-like heart, which she had always carefully protected, also fell to the ground.

Chen Qi...ran away...

His heart... had just been broken... again.

This time, he was afraid that he would never come back.

why?

Why did you let him, who was originally so strong, get hurt again even though I had already been so careful?

At that moment, Mu didn't even have time to care about the reason. She even stopped moving her fingers. If it weren't for the last bit of rationality supporting her, Mu might have collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, unable to think.

Everything that I carefully maintained, the people that I tried my best to protect...but I failed to protect anything?

……

"Ha ha……"

Chen Qi left the studio in a hurry, almost running away, and came to the door of "RiNG" as soon as possible. Like a drowning man, he gasped for air from the outside world, but he could not suppress his still trembling heart.

How could this happen? Why was I so shaken this time?

I have clearly made up my mind to be a good brother to Deng, so why am I now wavering more intensely than Deng, the one who conveys my feelings?

Obviously, the emotion conveyed by the lamp may not be the taboo emotion that I thought! The lamp is expressing my longing, my memories and sadness. All of these are obviously the most normal emotions for a sister who depends on her brother.

Why did I waver like this? Why did I feel moved for a moment?

"No, this is impossible..." Chen Qi shook his head vigorously, forcing himself to be a little more sober, but at this moment, Chen Qi's mind was completely in a mess, and he couldn't think of anything else except escaping.

Escape? Leaving again? This time not only leaving the lights, but also leaving Tokyo?

Maybe... I should have made this decision from the beginning, left Tokyo, found a place where no one could find me, and never came back until my heart was no longer disturbed by such things.

That kind of emotion is absolutely not allowed - I can't do it, push the lamp into such a pit of fire!

"boom."

At this moment, the sound of a car engine suddenly interrupted Chen Qi's thoughts. Chen Qi, whose complexion had just recovered a little, cast his eyes straight at the luxury car in front of him and the figure who got out of the car, who was unfamiliar to him, but a little familiar.

This is a middle-aged man. Although he should look pleasing, he has a serious face. More importantly, his light green hair immediately reminds Chen Qi of the cucumber girl with the same features...

"You are Chen Qi? That's right."

Mr. Ruoye raised his head slightly and looked at the big boy who was taller than him. He noticed that he was originally panic-stricken for some reason, but quickly calmed down when he saw him. He nodded unconsciously.

But Mr. Ruoye quickly regained his rigid seriousness and said to Chen Qi word by word:

"I am Ruoye Mu's father. We have some things that we need to talk about."

"It's about my daughter, Ruoye Mu."

……

At the same time, the performance had finally come to an end. The group led by Deng fell into an unprecedented silence the moment they returned to the backstage.

Chihaya Aine and Tateki were both still immersed in the aftereffects of Takamatsu Teru's song and couldn't extricate themselves. They didn't know what time in their lives they were reminded of from this song, and the softest part of their hearts was breached, so naturally they couldn't extricate themselves for a long time.

As for Su Shi and Gao Songdeng, they just looked at each other in silence. There was still some uneasiness on their faces, not sure whether what they were doing this time was right or wrong.

After all, no matter what, under their gaze, Chen Qi did escape... This meant that Deng's song had indeed shaken Chen Qi's heart.

But after Chen Qi's heart was shaken this time, what would he think? They didn't know, and could only pray silently in their hearts.

"Hmm? Xiao Mu?"

However, Su Shi suddenly noticed that a petite figure did not seem to keep up with everyone, and turned her head unconsciously after a soft call.

However, Su Shi's gentle call also attracted the attention of others. But when the four girls' eyes were focused on the man standing behind them, who just lowered his head silently, covered his face with his long light green hair, and said nothing, everyone's footsteps subconsciously stopped.

For some reason, but at this moment, Ruo Ye Mu, who didn't say a word, gave them a very strange feeling... It was as if she was suppressing something, trying hard to remain restrained and not let her emotions explode.

But in the end, it was Su Shi's gentle call that unexpectedly became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the long-accumulated harmony.

Mu was seen clenching his fists tightly, not even noticing his nails digging into his flesh. After gritting his teeth, he could no longer suppress the impulse in his heart and suddenly raised his head!

The next second, a ferocious look appeared on Ruoye Mu's face for the first time, which completely stunned the four girls.

They only heard the girl in front of them, who had her first emotional outburst, gnashing her teeth like never before, squeezing out a question that was difficult to suppress her indignation:

"Why, are we playing "Sixth Star Night"?!"

At this moment, Ruo Ye Mu was completely enraged.

Chapter 70: Mu’s complete outburst, Mr. Ruoye’s request?

"Why, are we playing "Sixth Star Night"?!"

It was almost beyond everyone's expectations that Wakaba Mutsu, who in everyone's impression was even more quiet than Takamatsu Touma, rarely expressed his personal opinions, and was like a transparent person in the band, would suddenly burst out with such strong emotions.

In particular, this kind of anger that was almost overwhelming, like a volcanic eruption, made the four girls tremble involuntarily.

This also meant that when Zai Mu roared at them with unprecedented ferocity, none of the four girls dared to stand up, but just lowered their heads and remained silent.

However, the four people's silent expressions did not reduce Mu Xin's anger at all. Instead, it intensified and she was almost on the verge of losing control.

"What on earth are you thinking about? Takamatsu Deng! What on earth are you thinking about?!"

"Don't you understand? Your brother! Qi! How much effort has he made to make you grow up independently?!"
