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

Ignoring Aine's anxiety and dissatisfaction, Ayano rubbed the pink-haired head with her right hand for a while, then slowly walked in front of Su Shi, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Ah...Ayano, what are you saying?"

"Resolve the misunderstanding, not only between us and Li Xi, but also between Xiao Deng and you."

Having said that, Ayano straightened her posture, and reached her right hand around her ear to play with her long brown hair. Her whole demeanor suddenly changed, from the bad girl style just now to that of a noble lady from a famous family.

Su Shi in front of her felt a little uncomfortable. After all, Ayano's posture was too different from her previous image, and inexplicably made her feel a strange sense of closeness?

However, Su Shi did not know that the "Miss" Ayano in front of her was actually just clumsily imitating Toyokawa Shoko's usual rich daughter demeanor.

Of course, the most important thing is Ayano's enchanting face and the very kind and intoxicating smile that appears on her face.

It was precisely this point that made Nagasaki Motoyo realize that this girl named Mizushima Ayano seemed to be a little unusual.

Not to mention her at this moment, even Li Xi, who had just come to his senses and came to the negotiation table with the "support" of Xiao Deng, could not get angry at the charming Ayano under such circumstances.

"Mr. Lixi, I'm sorry for what happened before, but I think you should apologize to me as well."

"Why should I..."

"Ritsuki-chan, stop losing your temper." Su Shi recovered from the state of staring at Ayano. She deliberately avoided Ayano's gaze and smiled as she tried to mediate the conflict during the meeting.

"Actually, Xiao Deng is very grateful to you. She told me that even though we haven't seen each other for a long time, Li Xi is still Li Xi, and always has been."

"I……"

Deng was about to say that he didn't say those words, but he saw Ayano turn her head and wink at her secretly.

After seeing this scene, Deng, who was holding his hands like a squirrel, hesitated for a moment and finally chose to remain silent.

"Deng, Deng... is she really...?"

Seeing Ms. Lixi's embarrassing look at the moment, Aiyin really wanted to secretly take a photo of her with her phone.

“Actually, the relationship between Aine and I is just like the relationship between you and Deng.

You blocked Aine's way without asking clearly that day.

Giving her a cold look and retorting to me without understanding the specific situation are actually the same idea, aren't they?

It’s all just for the people who are important to me, to keep them from getting hurt.”

"A-Ayano?"

Well, seeing Ms. Aine's embarrassing look at the moment, Ayano really wanted to secretly take a photo of her with her phone.

"me……"

As the center of the topic, Li Xi's face was a little flushed at the moment. She didn't even dare to look at Xiao Deng's face beside her.

Of course, if she really turned her head, she would find that her classmate Xiao Deng was staring at Ayano's face with gratitude and curiosity, without even blinking.

"So, I apologize for what happened before, because Xiao Deng is a very cute child. You, who can protect her, definitely wouldn't be that unreasonable.

And if it were me, I would probably do the same thing as you, and of course, I did it later.

And Sushi-san told me before that you are not the kind of person that Aine and I misunderstood. It seems... Sushi-san did not lie to me.

There must be a reason why you two, who seem to have completely different personalities, can meet and come together."

"..."

Li Xi didn't know how to answer for a moment, but seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on her, she just gave it a try and said casually:

"That's enough! I apologized too. Are you satisfied?"

Ayano didn't say anything else, but just smiled faintly, and her pupils suddenly shrank when she looked at Su Shi beside her.

Not right.

Something is completely wrong!

Nagasaki Suyo felt that she was now completely confused about what kind of person Mizushima Ayano was. How come this person, who was so quiet the day before and had been staring blankly while she was leading the conversation, became so eloquent today?

And after a few words, almost everyone present was brought into the conversation by her words.

There's no need to mention Aine, that guy is Ayano's die-hard fan.

There was no need to talk about Li Xi. Although she was still a little stubborn, looking at her embarrassed look, it was obvious that she was planning to temporarily call a truce with Ayano.

What puzzled her the most was Xiao Deng.

Based on my understanding of these two people, they probably haven't known each other for a long time, and they don't even have many opportunities to communicate.

But how come in less than an hour, Xiao Deng seemed to have been completely "captured" by this guy?

Even more outrageous was the fact that Ayano had mentioned him earlier. While there wasn't any direct flattery in her words, the effect of those two scribbled words was many times greater than direct praise.

If she had not been prepared, she might have been led into trouble by this terrible woman.

This guy is obviously trying to deceive all of them!

What a scary person! It turns out that all the good-looking ones are not easy to deal with.

"Mr. Sushi?"

"Ah...what's wrong? Ayano~" Nagasaki Motoyo subconsciously showed her signature smile, then narrowed her eyes and looked at Mizushima Ayano who was about to seduce her.

"The misunderstanding between us and Lixi has been resolved. Now it's the turn of the misunderstanding between Xiaodeng and you."

"……All right."

I have to say that although Nagasaki Motoyo doesn't really want to be led by Ayano now, she does need to explain a thing or two about the disbandment of crychic.

As the saying goes, the person who tied the bell must untie it. Even if Ayano and Aine, two superfluous people, are not here today, if she wants to bring everyone back together, then the issues that have been put aside will have to be picked up again and finally put in front of everyone.

"After that day, Xiao Deng, you rarely came over, and it became difficult for us to get together again.

First it was Xiangzi, then Xiaodeng, then Lixi-chan left, and after Xiaomu left too, I knew…"

"Isn't this all Xiangzi's fault?"

Before Su Shi could figure out what to say next, Li Xi interrupted, "If she hadn't suddenly quit without explaining to us, Xiao Deng wouldn't be so sad."

These words immediately hurt Su Shi's heart. She subconsciously wanted to refute, but was afraid that her emotions would get out of control.

Just as she was about to say a few good words for Xiangzi gently, Ayano beside her suddenly spoke.

"Xiangzi, it's not like she's doing this for no reason. It's just that she probably doesn't want to tell you that reason."

"What?" Su Shi suddenly became emotional, staring at Ayano intently, and suddenly jumped up from the chair. "Ayano, do you know? You must know, right?"

"..."

Ayano did not answer her question, but looked at Su Shi with a half-smile.

broken.

Su Shi felt like she had been tricked. She... was bewitched by this woman!

Chapter 24 anno: Why does Ayano have it but not me? (2/2)

"Aren't we here to discuss Xiangzi's affairs today?"

Lixi frowned. She felt that Ming Deng was the victim, so why did Su Shi pretend to care about Xiangzi?

Although she understood that Su Shi still couldn't let go of that day and couldn't let go of all of them, and the fact was that Su Shi was the last person to leave.

Oh no, the last one can't be said to have left,

It should be said that... abandoned.

"It's all my problem."

Deng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke at this moment, but her tone sounded a little guilty, and her whole body seemed to be shrouded in a haze.

"Because I didn't sing the song well, that's why...that's why Xiaoxiang didn't come."

"Xiao Deng, why do you think so?"

Aiyin had seen the practice video, and the singing voice from Xiao Deng in that video really shocked her.

"That song is obviously very nice, and there's nothing to criticize about Xiao Deng's singing, right?"

"If you don't know, don't speak." He was about to retort subconsciously, but after glancing in Ayano's direction, Li Xi chose to speak politely. "Besides, there are still people who find fault..."

"what."

As if recalling that bad memory, Deng's whole body seemed to shrink.

Seeing this, Li Xi realized that he had said something wrong and quickly said, "But that's not Xiao Deng's fault. It's all that netizen's fault. If I met him in real life..."

"Lixi, there's no need to talk about the past..."

Su Shi felt a little helpless. Sometimes she felt that Li Xi obviously wanted to protect Deng, but her words and actions always had the opposite effect. The problem was that the other party had not realized this yet.

But this is probably because Xiao Deng's personality is really too delicate and sensitive...

There was a complicated look in Su Shi's eyes when she looked at Deng, but she also understood that she, Nagasaki Su Shi, might not be in much better condition.

Just now, because of Ayano's words, I suddenly lost my composure. This was really a fatal mistake.

It was precisely because of this that Su Shi felt that she had to carefully consider every sentence she would say next and every word in each sentence.

Especially when facing Ayano, she must always be vigilant to see if the other party is setting any traps for her.

Of course, she is not completely without chance.

Ayano doesn't know much about music and she even learned piano on the spot. If she makes good use of this, there is still a lot of room for improvement.

"Xiao Deng, thank you for telling us this."

Su Shi turned to look at Deng's guilty face, and said in a very gentle tone, "But I hope Xiao Deng, you won't continue to blame yourself. It's not anyone's fault that those things happened.

I also don't want Xiao Deng to be depressed like this. I think forming a band is a bad idea. Li Xi...doesn't he think so too?"

Seeing that he was suddenly pointed at, although he didn't like the feeling of being pushed around, Li Xi actually already had the answer to this question in his heart.

"I... yes."

"Li Xi, aren't you angry with me?" After hearing this, Deng looked at Li Xi. When their eyes met, he asked a question that he had kept hidden for too long.

"How could I be angry?"

She was obviously the person least likely to be angry with Xiao Deng. So, was this how the distance between her and Xiao Deng was widened?

At this moment, Lixi was extremely flustered. She didn't even care about the teasing look that Ain gave her with her head tilted to the side. She just wanted to explain to Deng and tell him what she really thought.

But when the words came to my lips, they changed their meaning.

"I've never been angry with Deng. I just care that Xiao Deng hasn't been coming to practice."

"Sure enough...it's still my problem."

"I……"

"That's not true. Lixi likes Xiao Deng the most~"

"what???"

Upon hearing these straightforward words, Ms. Lixi stood up and declared her innocence on the spot.

But no one around believed it, and Aine even moved a chair over and started eating melon with her good friend.

Seeing that he had regained control of the situation and the initiative was back in his hands, Su Shi felt that he had regained some of the value of his existence.

She will definitely not lose to an outsider!

Of course, it may also be because it involves the former affairs of the C Group and it is not convenient for Ayano to participate, so Ayano, who just suppressed her, has not spoken much at this moment.

Although the only sentence she said at the beginning still felt like a little claw, tickling her heart so much, the fingers of the audience were almost turned into flowers by Su Shi.

Is Ayano playing the empty city trick with her, or does she really know some inside story that she doesn't know?

But that night, Xiangzi did call Ayano his friend, and the two of them came to the music store to discuss the band's behavior, which really made people think about it.

Why……

Xiaoxiang would rather have a heart-to-heart talk with Ayano, who came later, than pay attention to himself who came earlier, and is unwilling to tell her the truth about his withdrawal from the group?

Su Shi now really wanted to find an opportunity to force the hateful Ayano into a corner and find out the truth, but she just couldn't do it.

Because as long as he showed too much of a desire to exploit Ayano and showed any abnormal purpose towards her, this woman would definitely see through it and take Aine away from the band.

It’s not a big deal if these two people leave, but the problem is that Xiao Deng cares about them a lot now.

If Ayano leaves, Aine will leave too. Once they leave, Xiao Deng will be hurt again, and Riki will definitely not choose to stay. She is completely unable to cope with such a series of chain reactions.
