Classic soul swap, but a musical

Hiroi Kikuri turned on her cell phone and used the dim light to grope deep into the room. She waved to her and walked into the room while talking.

Not long after, she found the boss. She must have been holding the boss's legs and dragged out of the room, like a rag, leaving a drag mark on the ground.

The boss turned on the lights, sat at the bar, and poured himself a glass of ice water.

Although there was only one lamp emitting light, it was not dim after all. Xiangzi stood near the stairs, staring at the boss opposite.

It was a blonde woman who looked unapproachable. She was holding a glass of ice water and looked annoyed at the woman at her feet.

"Ah, I've heard her out loud. This guy has been talking nonsense, and I'm a little confused. Anyway, this guy must have caused you trouble. Wait a minute, let her and I deal with it."

She turned her attention to Hiroi Kikuri who was dragged in and continued.

"Let me summarize. You introduced her to me because you got drunk and caused her to lose her job, right?"

"Yes, I'm very sorry, so please..." Hiroi Kikuri lay on the ground.

"Oh." The woman covered her head, calmed down, drank the ice water, looked at Xiangzi, showed a little doubt, hesitated for a moment, and asked.

"Have I seen you somewhere?"

"It's the video we watched together, the one with Wakaba Mutsu's band video." Hiroi Kikuri reminded, smiling again.

She suddenly realized and relaxed her palms slightly, "Oh, it's the girl who plays the keyboard very well, so it's you."

“…” Xiangzi didn’t respond and turned his head away.

The woman supported her chin with her hand. Noticing her abnormality, she didn't pay much attention to the band. It was normal for a band to have quarrels.

She placed her hands on her chest and said calmly, "My name is Ichichi Xingge, what about you?"

"Oh, yes, I haven't asked your name yet." Hiroi Kikuri smiled foolishly and held the bottle of wine.

"Xiangzi, Toyokawa Xiangzi." This was completely different from the previous introductions. Xiangzi used to directly say his last name, but now he put the emphasis on his given name.

"Okay, my work hours here are mainly at night. Are you okay?"

After learning about her piano skills, Xingge's eyes showed a touch of appreciation. He asked her some work questions and left her contact information.

Her eyes rolled upwards, and after thinking, she pulled out a schedule and looked at the time on it.

"Are you okay tonight?"

"fine."

"Come tonight."

"Okay." Xiangzi agreed.

Looking at Hiroi Kikuri crying and thanking Xingge, and the latter scolding her with a look of annoyance, Xiangzi unexpectedly felt that this seemed to be a good place.

Xingge pushed away the wine glass on the ground, turned around, looked at Xiangzi and said.

"You don't need to feel too burdened. I'm already recruiting people. It's not because of this guy's pleading. It has nothing to do with her. Do you understand?"

"Yeah." Xiangzi nodded, and his guess deepened a little. The store manager is a good person.

"Okay, if you're free, you can stay here. The live show is at night, and your working hours also start at night."

She then asked, "With such great skills, would you like to be a support musician and earn some money?"

"Sorry, I probably can't do it." Xiangzi's expression was hesitant. It seemed that he really wanted to do this job, but was forced to refuse and had no way to accept it.

She can work, but she really can't be a support musician. The contract she signed with the agency clearly states that she can no longer do this kind of work. Even Hai Ling no longer works as a support musician.

"It's okay, I still have things to take care of. You can sit down for a while and I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Xingge dragged Hiroi Kikuri into the inner room, leaving Xiangzi alone.

I finally feel like I can breathe.

She recalled Hiroi Kikuri's words in her mind. Although they were just unintentional drunken nonsense, they did cause her to think.

Should love be selfish?

Confirm his feelings?

is it necessary?

But was that farewell song for her?

If it was really given to her...

She wanted to confirm.

Unconsciously, she bit her lower lip lightly, and a look of pain appeared between her eyebrows.

These questions were like arias, surrounding Xiaoxiang's heart, and like steel needles piercing his heart, penetrating his entire heart.

In particular, I thought of the photo of Chuhua and him, and then thought of the word "selfish".

She was a little breathless, and pain radiated from her chest inside out. She couldn't think anymore.

Just then, the phone vibrated.

She looked at the text that popped up on the screen, and it turned out to be a message from Takamatsu Deng.

"It's Soyo's birthday, will you come?"

"......"

Xiangzi gritted his teeth and stared to hide his pain. After thinking for a long time, he still didn't open the message or reply.

She put her phone back into her bag and took two deep breaths to calm herself down.

She didn't know how to reply, and she didn't really want to, so she ignored the light.

The only good thing is that I found a new job.

On the other side of the phone, Gao Songdeng looked at the phone screen. There was not even a read message. His eyebrows drooped, his lips pursed, and his expression looked lost.

She raised her head, looked at the girl with flaxen hair, and spoke to her softly.

"no reply."

"Is that so? It's okay, Deng, you don't have to mind it. At least you can still contact Mu, right?"

Su Shi gave a standard gentle smile, gently hugged her shoulders, and comforted Gao Songdeng.

"Maybe something happened. Don't take it to heart. When Lixi comes, we'll go to my house and wait for Mu to come."

"Yeah." Her eyes were still filled with gloom, and she felt that Xiangzi was ignoring her.

Su Shi was silent for a moment. It seemed that he not only ignored her, but also ignored everyone except Mu.

It seems that we still need to find a breakthrough point in Mu.

She looked at the other end of the street and saw a girl with long black hair carrying a schoolbag. She didn't expect Su Shi to come so soon.

"what?"

Li Xi came here without even changing into his school uniform, and was unexpectedly the last one to arrive.

"This way." Su Shi waved with a smile.

"I saw it a long time ago. Which way are you going?"

Li Xi put one hand on her waist and looked at Gao Songdeng. She was usually very quiet, but she was even quieter today.

She walked with Su Shi, with Deng walking between them, and they arrived at Su Shi's home together.

Looking at the high-end apartment in front of him, Li Xi seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with a place like Yuezhisenxiu. Takamatsu Deng slightly parted his lips.

Su Shi smiled and opened the door. "Wait, I'll come down to pick up Xiao Mu. Let's go up first."

The two followed her upstairs and looked at the scenery outside the window as the sun set slowly.

Time passed to five o'clock in the evening at the office.

In the office, Aragaki Ai finished the work at hand, sent the time of the next rehearsal to mujica's group, escaped from the office, and called Mu.

"Hey."

"Ah."

"Where are you?"

"Just finished class, about to go over."

Xiao Mu's voice was soft and sticky, and a little distorted when coming through the telephone microphone.

She continued, "The teacher said she'll look for you now and ask you to free up your time."

"okay, I get it."

Aragaki Ai smiled and said, "When you're done, call me. If you have anything, you can also send me a message. I'll get back to you when I see it."

"it is good."

"Well, have fun with Su Shi and the others tonight."

"Well....."

Xiao Mutou didn't want to hang up the phone, but it would delay his love, so he tilted his head and didn't say much.

The two people said goodbye to each other and hung up the phone.

She took a car to the address Su Shi sent her. When she arrived near the apartment, she asked the driver to leave in advance, walked to the apartment door alone, and sent a message to Su Shi.

A few minutes later, a girl with a gentle smile on her face ran towards her from the door.

She hugged Xiao Mu, put her hands on her back, and spoke with relief in her tone.

"Thank you for coming, Xiaomu."

"Yeah." She nodded.

The two men walked into the apartment, took the elevator, and after opening the door, they could see two girls sitting on the sofa through the room.

"Mu!" Gao Songdeng's mouth corners slightly raised, and there was a hint of brightness in her eyes, showing her happiness.

"Come in." Li Xi still looked unhappy and spoke in a harsh tone.

However, seeing everyone like this, Mu felt more at peace.

"You're really here." Gao Songdeng stood up and welcomed her. That smile made Li Xi a little unhappy, and he looked out the window.

"Ah, wait, there's another dish." Su Shi hurried into the kitchen.

Xiao Mu looked around, took off his shoes, walked into the room and sat down opposite the lamp.

There were already quite a few dishes on the table. Mu looked towards the kitchen again, his lips parted, revealing that dazed look again.

"It was Su Shi who did it." Li Xi seemed to have the ability to predict the future and guessed what she wanted to ask.

"Amazing."

Mu stared at the food on the table, wondering if he should learn how to make it so he could cook for Ai.

Will love praise me then?

She thought about it and decided to give Ai a lunch box made by herself and then feed it to him.

The sound of a door opening came from outside, attracting the attention of everyone present. The door opened, and a mature woman in a professional suit appeared outside.

She looked at the girls in the room, smiled, put the cakes and bags in her hands aside, and greeted them.

"You are Su Shi's friends, right? I'm her mother. It's really rare. This is the first time she has brought friends back. Wait for me for a moment."

Several people greeted her, and then Su Shi came out of the kitchen. This time her smile was not so gentle, but it seemed very real.

"Mother."

"I brought you cake and gifts." She smiled and handed over the bag.

"Thank you." Su Shi took it and put it aside. "I'll be done soon. Just wait a moment."

Su Shi returned to the kitchen to prepare the last dish, and the smile on her face became more genuine.
