As he said that, Lu Li walked to the kitchen and picked up a kitchen knife in front of Toyokawa Shoko's biological father.
"You, what do you want to do? You can't kill me! This is a society ruled by law, you can't kill people!"
Seeing Lu Li's actions, the drunk man was frightened. He was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. What he feared most was the gangster in front of him.
"You still think this is a society ruled by law? You idiot..."
Lu Li snorted coldly. He crumpled the kitchen knife in his hand into a ball of scrap metal in front of Toyokawa Xiangzi's father: "Xiangzi is mine from now on. If you dare to harass Xiangzi again, you will be punished."
With a thud, the iron ball hit Toyokawa Shoko's father on the head, and this blow also knocked out the last bit of courage of this man.
"you……"
The drunk man looked at Lu Li in horror, crushing a kitchen knife into scrap metal with one hand. This was beyond his comprehension.
"What do you mean by 'I'? I told you I'm Nidie. If you call me that wrong again I'll kill you."
"!"
"What are you looking at? You're back just in time. Give me Xiangzi's household registration card, then get out of here and come back in half a day. Understand?!"
"I know, I know."
Violence certainly cannot solve all problems, but it is quite effective against a scum like Toyokawa Shoko's biological father. Under Lu Li's intimidation, Toyokawa Shoko's father almost crawled out of the hut.
"Okay, solved."
After Toyokawa Shoko's father escaped, Lu Li turned back to look at Toyokawa Shoko. At the same time, he raised the household registration certificate in his hand and said, "It's simple."
"Lu Li, I thought you were going to tell him that you are a famous writer and scare him."
"That's not right. People say what they say. You have to scare someone like your father, otherwise he will still miss you in the future."
Toyokawa Shoko nodded. She understood what Lu Li said. "Hey, Lu Li, you said you were at the Bridge of Tears?"
"Yeah, I was a street urchin there for a while."
Lu Li has never hidden his dark history of selling prostitutes. After all, in the future, in order to start a harem, he might directly take over the Eastern Palace of the Dark Realm, so a small dark history is nothing.
"Bridge of Tears..."
Hearing Lu Li say this, Toyokawa Xiangzi's first reaction was not that Lu Li was a gangster before, but that Lu Li must have had a very hard life before. She knew the place called Tears Bridge, which was the poorest place in Tokyo.
Walking up to her lover and gently grabbing his hand, Toyokawa Shoko felt the calluses on Lu Li's hands. These were traces left when Lu Li used to sell crepes, and some of them were left when he lived in the Bridge of Tears.
Lu Li's life was not going well, but even so, he still thought about himself. In the simulation, he gave himself everything, and in reality, when he got the royalties, he gave them to her first.
The girl's voice was soft but firm as her fingers gently rubbed against the hard calluses.
"Lu Li, from now on, we will definitely live happily...definitely!"
"Xiangzi, what are you talking about?"
"No, nothing, Lu Li, I have something I want to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
"It's about the band. The band's training is almost done, and I'm planning to hold a performance..."
……
At the same time, in a single apartment, Yutenji Wakamu, who had gotten up early, sat at the dining table. She ate rice balls while browsing something on her phone.
While eating the rice ball that he had made himself, Yutenji Wakamu frowned.
It tastes so bad.
It's not even one ten-thousandth as good as Lu Li's.
but……
Even if it tastes bad, she can't waste it.
And if she doesn't eat it properly, how can she know what's wrong with the taste and make better rice balls?
Rice balls are something that families eat.
She wanted to become a family with Lu Li, so she not only wanted to eat the rice balls made by Lu Li, she also wanted to make delicious rice balls for Lu Li!
However, when he opened the chat app on his mobile phone, Yutenji Wakamu was stunned.
"Hey, today is the weekend, and Xiangzi didn't even invite us to training?!"
Why?
259
Chapter 259 I have already moved into his house.
Today is the weekend, the weather is sunny and the temperature is not too low, which is suitable for going out.
Yutenji Wakamugi was in a good mood.
Because when she woke up in the morning, she didn't see the chat group notifications that she would usually see as soon as she woke up.
No notice means that there will probably be no training today, which also means that she can take a break, which is rare.
After all, the drum beats that Toyokawa Shoko arranged for her were really difficult to play, and she almost felt like she was fighting with the jazz drums several times during practice.
Rest, good!
If you take a break, you can go and harass Lu Li.
The weather is so nice today, it’s a good idea to invite Lu Li to a tea restaurant to have some tea and chat.
However, Yutenji Wakamaki's good mood did not last long, because she only stayed at home for one morning, and in the afternoon she received a gathering notice sent by Toyokawa Shoko in the group.
Well, a half-day break is still a break.
Although the plan to have tea and talk with Lu Li fell through, at least I got to rest for half a day, which was not bad.
However, after arriving at the place, Yutenji Ruomai's mood improved again, because Lu Li, who usually seldom participated in training, actually came today!
Great!
But... why did Lu Li and Xiangziqin come here together?
Moreover, the way the two people look at each other is completely different from the way they look at other people. What happened between them?
His eyes fell on Toyokawa Shoko and Lu Li. The two did not interact much after entering the training room, but Yutenji Wakami always felt that something was wrong.
Her head seems a little pointy, and even a little green?
What happened?
"Everyone, this is the general situation. Our first regular performance will be held in a theater next Friday. Please be prepared. If you have any questions, please raise them now and I will help you solve them promptly."
Standing in the middle of everyone, Toyokawa Shoko calmly announced the performance matters that she and Lu Li had discussed.
They discussed the formal performance while they were packing up at home. It was she who brought it up because she felt the time was right and all the band members were now together.
The lead singer and lead guitarist is Sanjiao Hatsuka, the auxiliary guitarist is Wakaba Mutsu, the drummer is Yutenji Wakamu, the bassist is Yawata Kailing, plus she is the keyboardist, and finally there is her lover Lu Li. Her ideal galactic battleship has been perfectly built and has undergone a period of training.
Therefore, it is time for this galactic battleship to set sail in the true sense.
Sweeping her gaze over everyone in the band, Toyokawa Shoko calmly announced, "This time, the repertoire will be the same one we've been practicing. We'll also be adding a new song to that repertoire. It was written by Hai Ling and Lu Li, and it's called 'Guest.' Starting today, Lu Li will be transitioning from being the band's DJ to being their arranger and technical director. His previous JD position will be eliminated. Does anyone have any opinions?"
After listening to their band leader Toyokawa Shoko announce about the official performance and Lu Li, Yutenji Wakamai was the first to raise his hand: "Dear Shoko, I have a question!"
Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Yutenji Wakamaki and said, "Ms. Yutenji, please speak."
"Dear Xiangzi, I have no objection to a formal performance, but why did Lu Li cancel the DJ position and become the arranger and technical director? Does this mean that Lu Li doesn't plan to go on stage?"
As Yutenji Wakamushi finished speaking, Wakaba Mutsu and Hachiman Kailing's eyes fell on Toyokawa Shoko at the same time. They were both curious about the answer to this question.
After all, Lu Li had always been the DJ before, which was something that Toyokawa Shoko had always insisted on as the captain. But now, Toyokawa Shoko suddenly changed her mind and asked Lu Li to leave the DJ position, which really surprised both of them.
No, it was not only unexpected, it was even a little uncomfortable.
Ruo Yemu looked directly at Lu Li. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes had already conveyed what she wanted to say to Lu Li. What she wanted to ask was, "Don't you want to perform with me?"
As for Hachiman Hailing, although her eyes were not as direct as Ruo Yemu's, she also looked at Lu Li. The things she had experienced with Lu Li before had made her completely accept Lu Li's existence. Now, when she was suddenly told that Lu Li would not be on stage, she couldn't accept it.
"Lu Li, you answer this question yourself."
Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Lu Li and she knew that Lu Li's sudden change of position would cause confusion among everyone.
She doesn’t want to either!
If you ask who in the band most wants to perform on stage with Lu Li, it should be her. She is the one who is most unhappy about Lu Li stopping being a DJ and becoming an arranger and technical director.
However, this was Lu Li's request. She was now a good and obedient wife. As long as Lu Li didn't say that she didn't want her anymore, she would listen to anything else.
Looking at everyone's gazes, Lu Li coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, it was my own request to leave the DJ position and become an arranger and technical director."
Yutenji Wakamai asked in confusion: "Why?!"
Lu Li said calmly, "There are many reasons. The most important reason is that I don't think our band needs a DJ. With our current setup, my presence on stage would be a bit redundant, and a DJ isn't absolutely essential. So I think it's best for me to step back and stay behind the scenes. Hai Ling and I just recently discussed the songwriting and arranging, so I'm taking this opportunity to switch my role."
"no!"
As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, Youtian Temple Ruomai retorted dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by redundant? You are not redundant!"
Yutenji Wakamugi was really unhappy.
Why? !
Performing with Lu Li was her goal. She had hoped to make up for the hurt she suffered after listening to "Queen" last time by performing with Lu Li, but now Lu Li was going to move behind the scenes?!
She was the first to disagree!
"This is my personal opinion, Sister Miao Meng. A DJ is indeed dispensable. And since you are all girls, it just so happens that a girl band or something is perfect."
"If a DJ is dispensable, then why not play some other instruments? Aren't you the guitarist in that band over there? Or why not play guitar here too? Three guitarists wouldn't be a problem!"
Lu Li smiled and shook his head: "Of course not. What band would have three guitarists? Sister Miao Meng, this is my own wish. Besides, I'm just moving behind the scenes, not leaving the band. I will continue to be with you all as an arranger and technical director."
Yutenji Wakamu yelled, "But...but I just want to sing on stage with you!"
While Yutian Temple Ruomai was yelling, Ruoye Mu, who had been silent the whole time, also spoke up: "Lu Li, let's perform together, three guitarists, that's fine."
Not only three guitarists, she can even give up her guitarist position to Lu Li, and then learn other instruments. All of these are possible.
She wanted to perform with Lu Li, and she would do anything for it!
"Mu, behind-the-scenes work is also part of the band's job. You see, I don't usually participate in training here. I'm currently juggling two bands. Maybe I won't hold you back on stage right now, but that's not certain in the future. So it's better for me to retreat behind the scenes as soon as possible."
"Land from……"
Ruoye Mu lowered her head, feeling a little lost.
She hadn't even waited for a reply to Lu Li's confession, but what she got was the news that Lu Li said he wanted to step back.
"Mu, don't have that expression. I told you, I'm just not going on stage, but I'm not going to leave you."
"Um……"
Knowing that Lu Li had made up his mind, Ye Mu had to accept it even if he was unhappy.
After comforting Ruoyemu, Lu Li looked at Youtiansi Ruomai: "Sister Miaomeng, this is probably the situation. I hope you can understand me."
"Good."
Knowing that the matter was set and could not be changed, Yutenji Ruomai had no choice but to accept it. Fortunately, Lu Li only moved behind the scenes instead of leaving the band, otherwise she would really explode.
"Hai Ling, Chu Hua, do you two have any opinions about the performance and Lu Li's matter?"
Seeing that Lu Li had comforted Yutenji Wakamai and Wakaba Mutsu, Toyokawa Shoko looked at the remaining two members of the band.
Hachiman Kailing looked at Toyokawa Shoko and said, "I was the one who brought up the matter. I didn't expect that the arrangement I discussed with Lu Li that day would make him give up going on stage. To be honest, I feel a little guilty. Lu Li is an outstanding member that I recognize, and I wanted to perform on stage with him."
"Hai Ling, thank you."
Lu Li smiled at Hachiman Hailing.
Hachiman Hailing's eyes fell on Lu Li's face: "If you really want to thank me, it would be best if you change your mind."
"That's not going to work, but I can compensate you by giving you a few more Sukiyaki meals, okay?"
Hearing Lu Li say this, Hachiman Hailing's eyes lit up: "Want to eat at my house?"
"Actually, I wanted to invite you and me to my house, but since it's compensation, you have the final say."
Hachiman Kailing nodded: "Okay, it's settled then."
Seeing that Lu Li had also convinced Yawata Hailing, Toyokawa Shoko finally looked at the last member of the band, her childhood sweetheart, Sanjiao Chuhua.
