"My mom messed up a huge order negotiation, and it was a terrible blow. Although she didn't lose her job... her income now is completely different from what it used to be."
"Ah, is that so?"
Aiyin listened silently, and naturally kept complaining about Moto's shamelessness in her heart.
“Although it is generally difficult for employees to lose their jobs due to lifetime employment, this does not include situations where employees voluntarily resign or commit serious mistakes.
But that incident… clearly had nothing to do with my mother. They kept saying they were magnanimous and giving her a chance to stay, but in reality, they just wanted my mother to stay in the company and become a scapegoat for others, and then kick her out once she was no longer useful."
"hiss……"
Of course, Aiyin didn't really believe it, and was emotionally affected by this injustice.
She just admired Su Shi's ability to make up stories, and if possible, she really wanted to record it... No, no, she couldn't learn from a bad guy like Ayano!
"I originally wanted to transfer schools, but... my mother didn't want to affect me, so she has to take all the pressure on herself.
But I couldn't just sit back and do nothing, so I had to spend all my spare time working to earn money. Although it didn't make much difference, it was better than doing nothing.
Because of you, I have to take another day off today... So, after knowing this, can you please stop pestering me?"
"Student Su Shi, I really didn't know you had such a sutra..."
Before Aiyin could finish, the sound of a key opening the door was heard at the door. This sound made Su Shi tremble all over, and he looked towards the entrance in panic.
This shouldn't be possible! How could Mom come home so early today? She usually arrives two hours later!
But unfortunately, her voice could not stop everything.
The door opened, and the first thing Nagasaki Rina did when she walked in was to happily and coquettishly say to her daughter, "Sushi~ Is it a surprise?
Today, your favorite aunt said she would let me come back early to give you a surprise.
But you unexpectedly came so early today, wow... the surprise is over. Eh? This... isn't this Ano-chan? ! "
"Ano-chan?!"
Su Shi looked at the pink-haired girl with a smirk on her face and a raised mouth, and she was about to collapse.
What the hell is going on!!!
Chapter 190: Xiang can go, Su can also go! (26 more)
"Why is Aine-chan here today? Aren't you with Ayano?"
Ayano? How did her mother know her... Oh yeah, she had actually mentioned Aine and Ayano's names when she was talking to her mother before.
No, that’s not right!
She just said her name but didn't provide a photo, and she didn't have any photos or videos.
Nagasaki Motoyo also believed that they had only spent such a short time together that there was no chance for any video footage to be left behind.
"Mom...how did you meet Aine?"
In front of his mother, Su Shi, who had just had a cold face and looked as if he didn't want strangers or acquaintances to approach him, suddenly softened a lot.
After all, she didn't want to have any conflict with the evil pink-haired guy in front of her dear mother. If she couldn't explain herself, she would be blamed by her mother. The thought of it made her feel dizzy.
"Eh? Well..." Nagasaki Rina was a little unsure of how to answer this question, but she quickly found an excuse. "Because I needed to discuss specific business matters with Ayano's mother at work, and Ayano and Aine were there at the time, so we got to know each other."
"That's it..."
Damn it, there is always a loophole... there is always a loophole!
Who would have thought that Nagasaki Sushi was so clever and scheming that she ended up like this.
"Well, you guys chat, I'll go cook for you." At this point, Rina turned and looked at Aine with a smile, "Ano-chan, you must stay for dinner tonight!"
"Yeah, thank you, auntie~"
"You're welcome, Su Shi will have to trouble you to take care of her in the future."
"......"
Who needs someone like that? Mom, please stop making decisions for your daughter without your permission!
Su Shi clenched her fists and wanted to say something, but due to the current situation, she couldn't say anything and could only suppress the anger in her heart.
Don't be angry, don't be angry, if you get sick from anger, no one can replace you...
Su Shi sat quietly on the sofa like a piece of wood, looking at the pink-haired girl opposite with a smile on her face. But when the kitchen door behind her was closed, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, as familiar as an old actor in Sichuan opera face-changing.
"You were pretending not to know just now, but I actually believed that you were the kind of person worthy of telling secrets to."
Su Shi frowned and spoke softly, but not in a whisper.
"But what Sushi-san said were just lies, not secrets."
"Heh, so you already knew everything, including what I said to Li Xi earlier?"
Hearing this, Aiyin paused for a moment, then continued with a smile: "Yes, at that time
I was really angry, but then I thought about it and realized that Sushi-san also has a human side.”
"Understanding human nature... Do you want to quarrel?"
No matter how you look at it, this is insulting!
But to be honest, if Aine could come to her house and ask her to go back after knowing the truth, she had indeed exceeded her expectations, and she was better than herself in this regard.
"Because you are not only hypocritical, but also full of lies, and you are quite malicious, aren't you?" Aiyin drank the black tea in the teacup in her hand, squinting her eyes and looking at Su Shi in front of her with complicated emotions.
"......"
After all, her lie had just been exposed, so Su Shi couldn't even utter a word of rebuttal in the face of Aine's series of accusations.
"I heard you were lost."
"what?"
"That's what Ayano-chan told me. She said someone told her that you just don't know what to do anymore."
"...What does she know?" Su Shi lowered her head, her hands tightly pinching the folds of her school uniform skirt, and said unconvincedly, "She thinks she knows me very well, do you know me too?"
"is it?"
Aiyin looked at Su Shi who was already in a dilemma, and she decided to express her final attitude here.
She put down her teacup, stood up, and said with a serious face, not giving in at all:
"Even if you said you didn't need me, I would still go on."
"Enough." Su Shi felt that both Aine and Ayano only thought that she was a sinner and only forgave her in the moment.
Of course she knows that some of her actions are immoral, but if she has to accept being the perfect ending in someone else's story because of these, then when will the perfect ending she wants come?
"Obviously, your motivation is just vanity."
"Yeah, but didn't we start this band together?"
Started together?
This isn't the only band we started together. Didn't the band that Xiangzi and I formed also end due to practical reasons?
Furthermore, she had never come here with the intention of actually forming a band with Aine and the others, so this was a mistake that was even more serious than reviving crychic itself.
But there was one thing Aine said today that was correct. She had indeed been somewhat evasive before and still refused to make up her mind.
Now Su Shi understands that he has the same mission as Xiaoxiang, and these wrong things should be ended by the people who started the mistakes.
Thinking of this, Su Shi no longer hesitated, and her heart was no longer confused.
The sound of the teacup hitting the saucer was like a clarion call to charge, and her posture as she stood up further demonstrated her determination at the moment.
Su Shi looked at the serious Aine, and her eyes also became determined, and there was even an epic feeling that there was no way to retreat and could only move forward.
"In that case, let me put an end to it."
"......"
Before Aine could say anything, Rina's voice came from the kitchen next to her, "Moshi, don't just sit there, come in and help~"
"Hmm~" Upon hearing his mother's voice, Su Shi, who had been extremely resolute just now, suddenly changed his expression. He looked like a good boy, and Ai Yin opposite him trembled with the corners of her mouth.
"Hey~~~Ms. Sushi, you're quite good at changing your expression~"
"...Why are you still here?"
"But Auntie said she wanted to stay for dinner." Aine blinked and said with a little pride.
"You guy..."
Big fire!
But these were just minor tribulations before victory, the obstacles she had created in her own heart before she could eradicate her sins.
You just need to endure it until this pink-haired guy has eaten his fill and leaves, then you can completely draw a line with him and end everything.
This is her fate, like a moth to a flame.
But when the meal was ready and all the dishes were brought to the table by the three of them and they started to eat, Su Shi looked at Aine, who had been having food picked up by her mother, and she couldn't help but clench her fists.
Eat, eat, I hope you’ll eat yourself to death!
Chapter 191: Li Xi: I’m sorry Ayano! (1/2)
"What? You're also performing tomorrow night?! Where…"
Li Xi looked at Hachiman Kailing in front of him and said with some surprise.
"Ah."
Hai Ling had a blank expression on her face, or perhaps it was because she was drinking juice from a carton at the moment, so it was really inconvenient for her to say anything other than "hmm".
She didn't explain anything in detail, because according to Fengchuan, their band must maintain some mystery in the early stages.
Whether it is a marketing strategy or it is to match Mujica's own world view, Hai Ling has no objection.
Besides, helping Ayano hide it from Riki is quite interesting.
"The location is not here, it may be a bit far."
"If it's tomorrow night... then I probably can't go." Li Xi's expression was very hesitant, but he quickly made up his mind, "Sorry, Hai Ling, I have something to do tomorrow."
"It doesn't matter. You should have reached the critical moment now, right?"
"Huh?" Li Xi was a little surprised. She didn't remember telling Hai Ling about these recent events.
Things.
Whether it was his decision to go watch Deng's LIVE, or the subsequent conversation with Deng, or the agreement to go to Yugaoka to catch Aine together, and later when Aine didn't listen to him and had to go find Suye to explain things.
These things happened so fast that she had no way to sort it all out.
Not to mention that Aiyin sent a special message today, saying that she had confirmed that nothing had happened in Su Shi's family.
No, how did Aine know for sure?
But if you say that this is a critical moment, then it can be said... After all, everyone has actually made a decision. After losing everything and getting together again, they should be more united than before, right?
Although Lixi was not sure whether there would be conflicts in the future, or perhaps she should not assume that a band would never have conflicts.
What is important is that everyone is firm enough and determined not to leave no matter what differences arise.
"Well...I guess so. So I won't be able to go to your show tomorrow."
At this moment, Li Xi didn't know that in a few weeks she would regret her current choice so much that she would bang her head against the wall.
Of course, neither the current Li Xi nor the current Hai Ling thinks that this choice is a big problem. After all, apart from other factors, Hai Ling believes that if Li Xi can resolve his emotional knot, that would be the best outcome.
"Oh right." Hai Ling was about to turn around and return to her seat when she suddenly remembered something. "The song 'Qunqing' we sang last time is on the trending search list. Didn't you see it?"
"Eh?"
Lixi was stunned for a moment. She was not really clear about this matter, because at that time her mind was only thinking about completing a task and repaying Polaris for his help to her.
She really didn't care too much about the subsequent results.
"People online said... the idea for the chorus was brilliant. I felt so empowered by it, like I was being pulled back together by my friends. It was so heartwarming."
"Really... That's good."
Hai Ling raised her eyebrows. She looked at Li Xi in front of her who didn't seem to react much, and felt a little confused.
Ayano told her to tell Riki about this when she had time, but why couldn't she understand the intention behind it? Could it be that... Ayano was simply trying to encourage her?
Hai Ling narrowed her eyes, turned around and left without saying anything else.
