How to describe it? If the original Ave Mujica style was a bit more inclined towards dark and deep heavy metal, then now it sounds a lot softer.

Maybe because the lead singer is Sanjiao Chuhua and because of Wakaba Mu's preference, Xiangzi did not abandon the rock elements when arranging the song. The whole song has a strong sense of rhythm and the heavy metal elements are still there, but the overall feeling of darkness is much less. If the previous song sounded like a magnificent march of the dark empire, then the current song gives Lu Li the feeling that an elegant and mysterious dark princess is singing on a high platform.

A lot softer, and...

"..."

After listening again, Lu Li discovered more differences.

Not right.

Did he hear it wrong?

Why can he still hear a little bit of a girl's shyness and anticipation for love in this song?

Am I hallucinating? Is Mashiro's stuff really that pure?

The problem is that he didn’t eat mushrooms today?

Not sure, let's listen again...

However, the more Lu Li listened, the more he realized that he was right. This feeling became more and more obvious as the song went on.

"Lu Li, what do you think? Does it sound good? Compared to the songs I played for you before, isn't this one more suitable as our band's debut song?"

Soon, the song ended. After it ended, Toyokawa Shoko looked at Lu Li with anticipation. She was waiting for Lu Li's answer.

"It sounds nice, I think it's very suitable."

Lu Li nodded.

If you put aside your preconceived notions, there's nothing wrong with the song that Xiangzi played for him. He could feel the difference because he had heard the original version by Ave Mujica. But for someone who hadn't heard the original version by Ave Mujica, this song is completely different from Ave Mujica's. The fact that the song became softer didn't make it look strange at all, but instead sounded better.

"But, Xiangzi, when are you going to compose this song? Composing music requires a computer, right?"

"I wrote this in an internet cafe during my free time!"

"cybercafe?"

Lu Li was stunned for a moment: "Then those songs you played for me at your house before, were all composed by you in the internet cafe during your spare time?"

Toyokawa Shoko nodded: "Yes, both."

Yes, the songs she composed were all conceived by her first, and then she wrote the scores. After finishing, she would go to the Internet cafe and use the music arrangement software to realize them.

Seeing Xiangzi nod, Lu Li felt sad.

Look, look, what has this damn world done to our Xiangbao?

Going to school, supporting a loser dad, working in customer service, and conceiving Ave Mujica's worldview, she even needs to go to the Internet cafe to compose music occasionally. Isn't this too hard?

By the way...Xiangbao, when you go to the Internet cafe, do you play the 5v5 competitive game with four characters? If you do, will you play the top solo stone man?

To be honest, my buddy is really good at playing Happy Wind Man. As long as you reach level 6 and come here, Xiangbao, you can enter my family tree!

"Xiangzi, wouldn't it be inconvenient to compose music using the computers in the internet cafe?"

Lu Li's expression became serious. It was just right. He was still wondering what excuse he could use to hand over the 1.3 million yen start-up capital to Xiangzi. Now he had an excuse.

"It's okay, everything else is fine. It's just that most internet cafes don't have music editing software, so it's a bit troublesome to download it every time I go..."

Lu Li asked, "Well, Xiangzi, would you like to consider getting your own computer?"

Your own computer?

Toyokawa Shoko blinked.

This is definitely not considered.

The computer is so expensive, she can't bear to part with it, and...

"The computer... is too expensive. Besides, if I buy it home, my dad will find out." Shoko Toyokawa shook her head.

In fact, she still needed a computer, but she couldn't buy it. Not to mention the computer, she even hid her electronic keyboard and the ornament that Lu Li had won with her at the aquarium.

Given her current situation, if that person finds out that she has anything valuable, she will probably be killed by him.

"Your father..."

When Lu Li heard Toyokawa Xiangzi mention her father, he frowned. Indeed, Xiangzi's gambler Lao Deng was a big problem.

After thinking for a while, Lu Li asked, "Xiangzi, how long until you become an adult?"

When she suddenly heard Lu Li asking her about adulthood, Toyokawa Shoko's eyes lit up.

adult?!

Why is Lu Li asking me this? !

Could it be that!

The girl blushed slightly: "Still, there are still two years, but Lu Li, there are some things that don't require waiting until adulthood. According to current laws, only sixteen is required..."

Before Toyokawa Shoko could finish, Lu Li interrupted her and said, "Sixteen is not enough. If you want to be removed from that person's household registration, if it is your personal idea, then you must be an adult, that is, after you turn eighteen. Otherwise, he must agree."

Toyokawa Shoko: “???”

Wasn't it about marriage?

"So it's about the household registration?"

"Yeah, the biggest problem you have with your father right now isn't your living conditions, but the fact that you share the same household registration with him, right?"

"Yes, yes...household registration...that's exactly what happened."

Realizing that she was thinking too much, Toyokawa Shoko's face turned even redder. It turned out to be a household registration issue. Why didn't you tell her earlier? She thought they were talking about marriage.

Lu Li said seriously, "That's it. You are not yet an adult. According to current laws, your guardian is still your father. So if you want to solve this problem, you must first find a way to transfer your household registration out. Then you can get rid of your father."

"So, what happens after we move out?" asked Shoko Toyokawa.

"After we move out, Xiangzi, since you're not yet an adult, you can stay with me for the time being. I will adopt you and temporarily transfer you to my household registration. Then, when you come of age, you can have your own household."

"!"

adoption?!

Hearing this, Shoko Toyokawa was shocked.

This was a method she had never imagined.

If she was really adopted by Lu Li as he said, then wouldn't she have to call him Lu Li...

father?!

No, that's not possible!

Even now, she can't accept this kind of play!

The level of the dog trainer in her phone was already the limit of what she could accept. She couldn't afford to upgrade it further, even if it was just a temporary relationship for the purpose of transferring her household registration...

Lowering her head, Toyokawa Shoko's face was as red as the scorching sun outside. She said breathlessly, "Lu, Lu Li... With our ages, isn't it a bit...?"

"Just move you here, and I'll adopt you as my brother."

"So it's my brother?!"

Lu Li was stunned for a moment: "What else? What were you talking about when you lowered your head just now?"

"No, it's nothing!"

Fortunately, they are brother and sister.

She thought she would have to call him dad in bed from now on...

Volume 4: Chapter : I Must Take It Back! (K)

"Xiangzi, what do you think of your father now?"

Lu Li asked softly.

"Father...I...I don't know, but I want to stay away from him." Facing Lu Li, Xiangzi spoke his true feelings.

She really didn't know what to say about her father. He used to be a good father, but ever since he became addicted to gambling, her father seemed like a different person.

"Xiangzi, what's going on with your father?"

"He's now... just drinking, and when he has money he goes gambling."

"Where did he get the money? Did you give it to him, Xiangzi?" Lu Li frowned.

"I gave it to him, but I only gave him a little basic living allowance so he could buy food. I didn't give him any other money..."

Shoko Toyokawa recalled the time when she did not give her father money. Her father had no money to eat and lay at home waiting to die. As a daughter, she saw this situation and had no way to deal with it, so she had no choice but to give her father some money.

"He's a grown man, he's not going to starve to death, Xiangzi. Your father must have used the living expenses you gave him to gamble."

Lu Li knew the thoughts of gamblers very well. Before he traveled through time, someone on the Internet had said that the biggest problem of gamblers was not the debt but the poisoned mind. The money that a normal person worked hard to earn in a month was just a matter of winning or losing for a gambler. After experiencing too much of this kind of quick money, gamblers had basically lost interest in normal work.

"Xiangzi, you shouldn't leave him alone. How could a grown man like him really be forced to death in today's society? Forget it, just take this."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Li took out the bank card and handed it to Toyokawa Shoko.

"Lu Li, what are you doing?!"

"My investment in the band is 1.3 million yen. It might not be a lot for a band, but Xiangzi, you can use it to buy some equipment you need, including a computer for arranging music. It should be enough."

"!"

Toyokawa Xiangzi remembered that Lu Li had said a few days ago that his novel had been signed, and this should be Lu Li's royalties.

"Lu Li, is this money your royalty?"

"Well, Xiangzi, take part of the royalties first. I should have some more later, and I'll give it to you then."

Hearing Lu Li's words, Toyokawa Xiangzi immediately picked up the bank card and put it back into Lu Li's hand: "Lu Li, I have a salary as a telephone customer service representative. You need this money more than I do. You need it for your own living, Lian's tuition, and..."

And your tuition.

Shoko Toyokawa didn't say the last sentence, but in fact, she and her future sister-in-law had discussed this issue on the phone.

In other words, Lian and several girls around Lu Li have actually discussed this issue.

Toyokawa Shoko, Nagasaki Suyo, Wakaba Mutsu.

Lian had asked these sisters to help persuade Lu Li. Lian really hoped that Lu Li could go to college, and just like what Lian thought, these girls also hoped that Lu Li could go to college.

"Yes, it's necessary. This is an investment. No matter how much money I invest now, when our band makes money, Xiangzi, you have to pay me back double."

"Take this money, Xiangzi, and quit your telephone customer service job. It doesn't pay much to begin with. You should spend more time on band-related matters, right?"

Knowing that Toyokawa Shoko would refuse, Lu Li said the lines he had already thought of.

"This money is not given for free. With this money, Xiangzi, you have to work harder to run the band. If you fail to run it and suffer losses, then Xiangzi, you will have to give me your people as compensation." Lu Li said jokingly.

As he spoke, Lu Li forcefully thrust his bank card into Toyokawa Xiangzi's hand, then added, "Don't refuse. I told you this is an investment. If you don't accept it, Xiangzi, then I'll have to think about whether this band is right for me."

"..."

At this point, Toyokawa Shoko was completely speechless. Lu Li had said all the good and bad things about her, so what else could she say?

Holding the bank card tightly, Shoko Toyokawa didn't say anything for a long time.

Finally, she raised her head, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, and said solemnly, "Lu Li, I will definitely run the band well. If the band fails, I will give myself as compensation to you."

No, it has nothing to do with whether the band is run well or not. Regardless of whether the band is run well or not, she has already decided to be with Lu Li in this life.

If the band is run well and she makes money, it goes without saying. Even if something happens like in the simulation and the band fails to develop, she doesn't mind living a poor life with Lu Li again.

Whether they are ordinary or rich, isn’t it enough for two people to live together?

To be honest, she really regretted not cherishing the simulation of the two of them growing old together. She clearly owned the whole world in that simulation, but she only saw external things.

She is so stupid, really. She must never live like that in her next life.

If she could make a wish, she would rather live like that for the next life, the next life, and the next life.

"No, no, no, Xiangzi, I was just saying that. But you are the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family. If you really let me buy you for 1.3 million yen, that would be terrible..." Lu Li waved his hands quickly.
