Teacher Daxiang, please teach me how to play Kasuga Shadow!

"Wait a minute!"

Aine suddenly thought of something and excitedly broke the somewhat solemn atmosphere, "Have you all forgotten something more important?

Band name and costumes!"

"No, are you crazy... Is this the time to talk about this?"

Su Shi and Riki rarely reached a consensus. "Ayano is not here. Are you sure it's a good time to choose a band name?"

"Eh~ You mean you think Ayano will come back?"

Seeing Li Xi suddenly lengthen her tone, Su Shi was choked by what she said, and retorted speechlessly, "I just thought you would think so, Li Xi.

Besides, there's no time left, do you still have the energy to think about this?"

"No, why are you all like this? Are you going to wear casual clothes on stage for the rest of your life?"

"It's bad. You're about to cry. I won't comfort you." Su Shi turned his head away again and said mercilessly.

"..."

Li Xi slapped her forehead. She felt that she must have done a lot of bad things in her previous life, which is why she had to meet such a group of problem children as her teammates.

Otherwise, the band should just disband and everyone should go back to their own homes and mothers.

...Just kidding. Li Xi felt that the more this happened, the more she wanted to pull Ayano back.

She really couldn't imagine what Su Shi, who had become a little despicable, would do without Ayano to suppress him.

"Um, do you need to cancel the appointment?"

Rinrinko, who was watching the girls "talking and laughing" with a smile on her face, gave a gentle reminder.

"..."

As soon as these words came out, they were thrown into a new circle of silence.

Fortunately, the silence was soon broken by the lights.

"We're going to play!"

"Eh?"

"We have to go on stage together... At least we have to let Ayano know that we are not separated."

Deng felt that if there was anything that had to be done, it was to maintain this "midsummer". She had to let Ayano know that she had never given up.

"Okay, that's great."

"You make it sound so easy. The composer isn't a senior." Li Xi looked at senior Rin Rin Zi who was watching the fun and making trouble, and complained unhappily.

One sentence.

"I believe Lixi can do it~"

"It won't be you who will be embarrassed then, tsk... That's why I hate adults."

"Only adults can say that~"

"...How about a cover?" Li Xi hesitated for a moment, then came up with a compromise. "Have you...ever heard of Red Ginger's songs?"

"Red ginger?"

Su Shi was stunned for a moment, then remembered this familiar name.

"I have some connections with their lead singer. If I mention it, I should be able to get permission."

"I have no problem with that, as long as it's not Ayano's song."

Su Shi thought about it and decided not to continue making things difficult, so he took the initiative to compromise.

"So what do you guys have in mind?" Li Xi looked at the others present with some anticipation. "I'll also be working on new songs, but they might not be ready for this live performance."

"..."

After a brief pause, Lenai, who spoke first, naturally needed no further words. As long as there was a song to play, she would not have any objections.

Aine’s reaction was also somewhat surprising, or rather… Aine seemed very excited at the moment?

"Even though it's not everyone's song, but... as long as we're all singing together, that's enough."

Deng hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in affirmation.

Su Shi, who just watched without saying anything, felt mixed emotions in her heart. She didn't know whether this was right or wrong.

I just hope Lixi can give up slowly, although... she herself doesn't dare to say that she has given up.

Ayano, you really are someone that no one can let go of...

Chapter 213 Xiaoxiang: With Aiyin's HP, she's at my kill line (still 8)

Aiyin, who had agreed with everyone to practice Red Ginger's "Bi-Li-Li Emotion" together tomorrow, returned home happily.

There's no way, she is too familiar with this song, it's the song she wrote the lyrics for!

In addition, she often played this song as an exercise, so her familiarity with it was definitely not comparable to a new song. When she thought about being able to show off in front of these good friends tomorrow, Aine felt that she was extremely happy.

But when she returned home, she was still a little worried about Xiaoxiang who had already prepared meals for her.

Although this prank will be over before going to bed tonight, Aiyin is still worried about Xiaoxiang's current mental state.

The two of them sat at the dining table without talking about anything, but Aine couldn’t remain silent any longer, so she spoke first.

"Xiao Xiang, regarding that Ayano..."

"Ayano? What Ayano?"

"……Eh?"

Seeing Aine's bewildered look, Xiangzi couldn't help laughing in his heart, "Oh...you were talking about that incident this morning. Sorry...I didn't sleep well last night and said something nonsense. Don't mind it."

"But……"

Seeing that Aine was starting to get anxious, Xiangzi felt that he could now easily control the pink-haired girl in front of him.

Oh, Ayano is not here, and a mere pink-haired guy wants to play tricks on her?

"Aine, we're friends, right?"

"Ah...of course."

"Then you won't lie to me, right?" Xiangzi showed a sincere expression, as if a confused person had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"I……"

"Actually, I know you wouldn't lie to me, Aine. After all, you've never been that kind of person. But I did realize that I had a very long dream last night. Maybe this Ayano is the person in my dream?

It’s actually quite funny, I dreamed of a lot of absurd things in this dream, and now when I think about it I still find it quite funny.”

"..."

Aiyin looked at Xiangzi in front of her, and she felt as if things were really getting serious.

No way, is Xiaoxiang completely crazy?

But Aine was really curious about what that dream Xiangzi was talking about, and...this guy actually dreamed about Ayano?!

For some unknown reason, she suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart.

"What is that dream you're talking about?"

"Well, in my dream, Ayano and I grew up together. We were childhood sweethearts, I guess. We often did all kinds of things together and were inseparable..."

"what?!"

"What's wrong?" Xiangzi looked at Aiyin who suddenly became a little excited and asked with some "confusion".

"No, nothing, just keep talking..."

"I stayed with her when she was sad, and comforted her when she cried. In Ayano's words, I was the only good friend in her life, and no one else understood her at all.

She also said that there was always someone who always teased her. Even though his own musical skills weren't very good, he always mocked her for not understanding music and Aiyin... Don't you think this kind of person is too much?"

“…” Aiyin’s teeth were almost broken, but after calming down, she still asked tentatively, “Xiaoxiang, don’t tell me you already know?”

"Well, I know everything."

Xiangzi sighed deeply, and continued to lie under Aiyin's seemingly "lucky" gaze: "In fact, there is no

What is Ayano? If I have to say...Ayano is actually me.

She is a part of my soul, a collection of my negative emotions, and she is my fear for the future during this period of time.

But now I feel like I don't need her anymore. After all, people should move forward and not avoid the dark side of their hearts.

Just like that stupid guitarist who bullied Ayano, she symbolizes the difficulties I must overcome in life. In fact, it seems difficult to deal with, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that...

There’s nothing scary about her.”

In fact, when Xiangzi said these words, he was still quite nervous.

Although she said it in a joking tone, she found that after she realized some of her true thoughts, the sour feeling in her heart could not help but be expressed through joking.

"..." Aine's expression was very strange at the moment. She wanted to tell the truth, but Xiangzi's previous words made her unsure whether she should tell the truth or not.

"Speaking of which, Aine, can you play the piano?"

Hearing Xiangzi suddenly ask this question, Aiyin was also stunned, and then subconsciously answered directly: "No..."

"Where's the landlord?"

"She wouldn't know either, would she?" Aine replied dazedly before she could react to what Xiangzi was about to say.

"Oh...it seems like I bought both of these pianos at home, but I don't think I need so many pianos now, so I might as well sell them later.

After all, it’s not easy to move out and live alone now.”

"what?!"

Aiyin stood up, slammed the table, and loudly retorted, "No, you can't sell it!"

"why?"

"That piano is not yours!"

"Then whose is it you say it is?" Xiangzi pretended to be confused, wanting to see his love rival admit the truth himself.

But the calmer she was, the more Aiyin felt that if she admitted it now, she would definitely be stepped on by the hateful Xiaoxiang, so she could only sit back in her seat awkwardly.

Then he said dryly, "The landlord put that piano there, and no one usually plays it..."

"Really? Then why are there songs I wrote on it?"

"You wrote the song?"

Aiyin was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked to the piano with some confusion, and found that there was indeed a piece of paper music on it.

The title of the song is "Bi-Li-Li Emotion", and the composer is naturally Mizushima Ayano.

"Mizushima Ayano should be my stage name, so this song should also be written by me, right?"

“…Ahhhh, I can’t pretend anymore!!!”

"Why are you pretending?" Xiangzi, who was drinking soup from a bowl behind Aine, chuckled and asked happily, "Aine, are you feeling unwell? I feel like you're acting weird today."

"...Okay, Xiaoxiang, you win, I admit defeat."

"Ok?"

"This was all my idea. Ayano was just an accomplice."

"Don't say anything nice for her. I know you're just doing these boring things at her behest."

"Eh?" Aiyin was stunned for a moment as she saw Xiaoxiang suddenly become very considerate. "Xiaoxiang?"

"Because you're just a pink-haired idiot, and the evil inside your belly isn't concentrated enough."

"..."

Chapter 214 Xiaoxiang: What Aiyin couldn't do, I did (1/2)

After nightfall, the lights of thousands of houses went out one after another, like the stars in the sky falling one by one. Only the two amber stars on Xiangzi's face, who was lying on his side, were still flashing with a faint light.

Her eyes seemed particularly bright in the darkness, with an imperceptible tension.

Xiangzi rested his head on his arms and listened attentively to the noise outside, feeling somewhat disturbed.

She tried to convince herself that this was just an ordinary night, and no matter how outrageous Ayano was, it was impossible for her to not appear in front of her all day.
