Classic soul swap, but a musical

She took another drag of her cigarette. "I'll give you ten minutes. If you have anything on your mind, you can talk to me. But I can't guarantee that the advice I give you is appropriate. You're not breaking up amicably, are you?"

"No, I'm on good terms with everyone. You don't need to worry about me."

Ai Aragaki directly denied her guess. After thinking about it, she felt that she really had no one to discuss with. If she talked to the teacher, she might get some good advice.

He paused and said, "I was confessed yesterday, not Mu."

"The other girls? I have a rough guess. Who is it? Can you tell me?" Yoko held a cigarette between her slender fingers, puffing out smoke. Her pianist's temperament made her look very reliable.

"Forget it. The main reason is that two people confessed to me in succession, and I already have a boyfriend."

Aragaki Ai confided in her.

"Oh, men, all are like this." Yaozi's eyes were mixed with contempt, and I don't know who he was thinking of.

She continued, "You must like those two too, right? At least you have a good impression of them, but you don't want to give up Mu, so you've been struggling with this all night, right?"

"Can't I just refuse gently because I don't want to hurt those two girls? Are you distressed by this?"

Aragaki Ai retorted, the fatigue on her face becoming more and more serious, and her tone became heavy.

"So, is that so?"

Yaozi leaned against the wall, smiled, looked at the boy's childish face, and shook his head.

At times like this, I feel like I'm fifteen.

When she saw Aragaki Ai's silence, she knew that she had guessed right. He was indeed a playboy.

"To put it bluntly, you want it all, but you don't want to let Mu down, right?"

"Well, besides, I promised Ms. Mori that I would draw a clear line between myself and the others." Aragaki Ai nodded, "I've already wanted to refuse. When I go back later, I will have to refuse one of them, and the other one..."

"You don't refuse? Are you planning to cheat?" she asked

"I don't know how the other person will handle it, because I already answered yesterday, but the relationship hasn't changed at all." Xin Yuan Ai said, "Teacher, a gentleman judges actions, not hearts. I'm not cheating, nor am I having an affair."

"Well, probably?" Yaozi's tone was uncertain, but he had a rough idea in his mind.

"It's just something like this, such a simple thing, and you're still fussing over it. Is this the special worry of a fifteen-year-old?

It's very simple, just date each other separately and don't let the other person know, and everything will be fine."

"Teacher, it's a mistake to ask you to give me some advice."

Ai Aragaki leaned forward, moving her body along the way and stood up, taller than Yoko who was wearing high heels.

His statement caused dissatisfaction among the teachers.

After talking with the teacher, Aragaki Ai's mood did improve a little and she figured things out.

Sure enough, he likes them all.

But at the moment, Mu is the most important person to him, and he doesn't want to see Mu sad.

I also have to find a way to answer Chu Hua and not let her get hurt. It's really difficult.

While Aragaki Ai was thinking, Yoko finished her cigarette, threw the butt into the trash can beside her, and came back.

"Really? Have you asked Mu for advice? Shouldn't you tell her about these things? Mu is the same age as you, so she's not a child anymore."

"They won't agree. Even if Mu agrees, Ms. Mori won't agree."

Ai Aragaki looked at Yoko, who was holding her waist with one hand, and showed an expression of great disdain towards him.

"Why are you being fussy at a time like this? Aren't you only fifteen? Go ask Mu. As for Minami, is she marrying you, or is Mu marrying you? Why do you care about her?

Why don't you come with me to Vienna? You don't have to worry about these things. I can promise you that I will perform in Vienna's Golden Hall within five years."

“.......” Aragaki Ai pursed her lips.

A peaceful showdown?

She would be devastated.

As for going to Vienna, that was another matter; going there now would be pure escapism.

Ai Aragaki took two deep breaths again, thinking about the pros and cons of everything.

At this time, the performance gradually came to an end and the scores began to be counted. In the conference room, everyone was arguing for Aragaki Ai.

"That's impossible. How could I possibly give him first place? You want me to change the score? Impossible."

"How is it impossible? It must be changed!"

"Such a great performance, incorporating the feelings of young people into the performance, how can it not be number one?"

"What a mess you're playing! I absolutely don't approve of that kind of willful performance!"

"That's why you can't raise good students. And you're jealous of others who have good students. You'll stick to your old ways for the rest of your life."

"Without reform, how can we have fresh blood? I think this is worth encouraging."

"The points are already set and cannot be changed."

"It must be changed! Your son must have been involved in some shady dealings back then, and now you're not allowing others to change their scores reasonably."

"......"

Soon, several top Japanese pianists got into a fight in the conference room because of personal attacks on each other.

At the same time, the firm.

A new pot of flowers was recently planted in the office and placed on the windowsill. Mori Minami didn't care about it, as it was all arranged by the secretary.

She held the report in her hand and looked at Ave mujica's data. The results in all aspects were very good. It was really amazing to be able to achieve this level.

The team that Aragaki Ai pulled together did indeed increase positive traffic for Mu and made her more famous.

This project...seems to be profitable.

Mori Minami casually asked her secretary, "How are the ticket sales going? I remember that guy asked for a 3,000-person show. He's setting a very high target."

"In fact, the best areas are almost sold out. According to the survey, many people are fans of Miss, Triangle Chuhua and that internet celebrity, and are willing to pay for the tickets." The secretary answered truthfully.

"What do you think? This plan? Is it profitable?" Mori Minami seemed to be testing her deliberately.

"Yes, it's our most profitable project in recent years. We only have data from one performance right now, but we've already opened up pre-sales for the album, and a lot of people have placed deposits."

"Hmph, not bad." Mori Minami's evaluation of Aragaki Ai improved a little. "She actually makes money, and quite a lot of it."

"Yes." The secretary nodded.

Compared to those big companies, her firm is very small and centered around her, so there aren't many money-making projects. It's really great to have one more project.

She closed the report and closed her eyes.

It seems that Mori Minami has no idea what happened in the underground parking lot yet.

Volume 1: Chapter 211 Ranking

Outside the concert hall, the report card was finally posted, and countless contestants and parents surrounded the form.

There is just one thing that is very strange. Why are the judges in disheveled clothes? Some of them have bruises on their faces, as if they had been in a fight.

Minami Mori secured a top ten spot in advance, and looking at the names above was a little complicated.

"Sure enough, not number one."

"Yeah, I have expectations." Aragaki Ai nodded and yawned, "How many, teacher?"

"Second." Teacher Yaozi felt that this result was a bit too good. He thought that third or fourth was pretty good. He folded the ranking list into a long strip and put it in his pocket.

"I'll send the video over there."

"Well, teacher, can you take me back to the office?" Aragaki Ai glanced at the time. The rehearsal should not be over yet. It would still be in time to go back now.

"Have you thought about it?" she asked.

"Well, I can't let those two people down. They are also very important to me."

Ai Aragaki put her coat back on, her tone became calm, and she took the bread that Minami Mori had just bought, bit one end with her teeth, and tore open the packaging bag.

"Even though it will hurt Mu, I still feel I should be honest with her. At the moment the incident happened, the hurt Mu suffered was irreversible. The more I try to cover it up, the more serious the damage will be to her.

After I finish confessing, we can talk about what happens next. Everything depends on human effort. How can I know if it is possible if I don’t try it myself?

If Mu firmly disagrees, then I can only choose Mu. I decided from the beginning that I will not give up Mu."

"Now that you've made up your mind, let's go. I'll take you to the office." Yaozi walked outside with a smile on his face.

"I want to go home, take a shower and change my clothes first." Aragaki Ai looked at the clothes on her body.

"Tsk, that's a lot to ask for." She complained, "Are you not considering Minami at this point?"

"Ms. Mori won't sink me into Tokyo Bay, will she?" Aragaki Ai looked at her teacher, her tone finally joking. "Then we'll go to Vienna."

"Oh, now I know I'm scared."

Watching the boy gradually calm down, Yaozi felt that his guidance was quite useful.

I've been through this myself.

This is nothing, she was even more confused when she was young.

This kid looks mature, but he still has a childish side after all.

She slapped Aragaki Ai's back fiercely and said, "Okay, take your second place, your first failure, and face what comes next. Don't worry too much. If things get really bad, come with me to Vienna. Don't worry about the money. You can consider it a loan from me. When you become a world-class pianist, you can pay me back."

"Thank you, teacher."

The two men left side by side and walked towards the sports car outside.

An hour earlier, in the office's rehearsal room, the atmosphere was very strange.

Miao Meng even felt worse than yesterday. Not only Xiangzi, but Chuhua also became evasive. She didn't even dare to make a joke.

The room was like a powder keg, and it seemed that any word would make them explode.

All six songs have been rehearsed many times and will be performed on stage next week. If nothing unexpected happens, the key is to avoid mistakes.

As the rehearsal was about to end, Chuhua took the initiative to find Xiangzi and asked.

"can we talk?"

"Hmm..." The scene of last night flashed through Xiangzi's mind, and there was no need to escape anymore.

She and Chuhua made the same mistake, and the betrayal of her best friend was like a needle prick, hurting her heart.

The girl's gaze passed through Chuhua and fell on Mu, and the guilt in her expression grew deeper and deeper.

Harmony...

Just at this moment, the door was pushed open, attracting everyone's attention.

The young man who appeared at the door looked less disheveled after a simple tidy-up.

He took a look around and breathed a sigh of relief.

“They haven’t left yet.”

"Why are you so flustered? Didn't you go to the competition?" Hai Ling put the bass into the box and looked up. "What was the result?"

"Second, that's not important."

Aragaki Ai turned her gaze towards Mu, "Mu...I have something to discuss with you."

"Hmm?" Mu put the guitar on the shelf beside him and slowly walked towards Aragaki Ai.

Chu Hua wanted to say something, but just as she raised her hand, she pursed her lips again.

At this moment, Xiangzi no longer knew what she was feeling. As a good friend of Mu, she should not want Chuhua's confession to be responded to. She herself should not confide her feelings to Aragaki Ai, let alone force him to say those words.

But, she is also Chuhua's good friend, and she vaguely hopes that she can succeed. If she can get a response, then she can do it too.

This feeling was so subtle that even Xiangzi himself was unaware of it. He just felt uncomfortable.

After the boy and girl left, there were only four of them left in the room, and the atmosphere was still very solemn.

Hai Ling put away her bass, not wanting to be dragged into this, and spoke in a very calm tone.

"Nothing, I'll be leaving now. Goodbye, everyone."

"Hey, wait for me, Haizi." Miao Meng didn't want to leave yet. The show had just reached its exciting part. She looked at the two people in the room with reluctance on her face.

But it was a bit too scary for her to stay alone and face Chuhua and Xiangzi alone.
