A guide to survival in a heavy girl's world

"……Yes."

Although he said so, the expression on Chihaya Tetsuya's face did not relax at all, but instead became more serious.

"But I'm not sure if this new solution... is acceptable to you."

"Eh?"

Sanjiao Chuhua was stunned when he heard this.

"What's going on? Why would Mr. Tetsuya think so?"

"Well……"

Facing Sanjiao Chuhua's question, Chihaya Tetsu hesitated for a while before he spoke:

"Because my solution...was to scrap the original one-piece design and turn it into two pieces, changing the order of inside and outside. I made the patent leather the outer layer, and the tulle skirt with the glow-in-the-dark fabric the main body."

"oh oh……"

Sanjiao Chuhua nodded at first, not quite understanding, and then she asked again as if it was natural:

"So, what's the problem with this?"

"The problem is... Chuhua, you don't like gauze skirts, right?"

Chihaya Tetsuya shook his head and gave a reason that made Sankaku Hatsuka extremely surprised.

"Your style of clothing has a distinctly mature and conservative bent, completely different from the lightness and youthfulness of the gauze skirt. Furthermore, once the luminous fibers are added, whether in bright light or dark environments, the light will cause the dress to become transparent and... uh, more like... a bit sexier..."

Having said that, Chihaya Tetsuya's tone suddenly became a little restrained.

"Of course, it only slightly highlights the outline and can't be called exposure, but... for you who have always pursued conservative dressing, this kind of clothing is indeed a bit unpleasant, so..."

"I thought you were going to say something, but it turns out you were worried about this."

When Sankaku Hatsuka saw Chihaya Tetsuya's extremely conflicted expression, she couldn't help but feel both amused and touched.

Although he was designing a performance costume that only needed to be decorative and visually effective, he still specifically considered his favorite clothing style and even had various concerns about it.

Also, why is he so shy when he says the word "sexy"? Are you an elementary school boy? Isn't that too cute? Wouldn't it be easy to tease him?!

Thinking of this, Sanjiao Chuhua suddenly chuckled and sighed:

"Actually, I was thinking of saying this when I came here earlier. For the honest and forthright Tetsuya-san, a person's clothing style can reveal a great deal about their personality and desires. But... this only applies to people like you who are more forthright."

Sanjiao Chuhua said this while looking at the clothes he was wearing today.

The classic combination of sleeveless shirt, high-waisted skirt and low-top boots makes the outfit look more like that of a college student or even a member of society than a high school student.

"As for me, I've always dreamed of becoming a professional singer, so I've always yearned for a more mature look. As for why I prefer a conservative androgynous style...it's actually quite simple: it makes it easier for others to satisfy their fantasies of a 'Triangle'."

"fantasy……"

Chihaya Tetsuya was slightly stunned after hearing this.

"In other words, this image is just a performance of yours?"

"It's more than that."

Sanjiao Chuhua adopted a somewhat relaxed attitude.

"I'm actually not very good at communicating with people my age, so when I first adopted this style of clothing, it was just to distinguish myself as much as possible from others, so that people wouldn't easily talk to me. However... my choice seemed to unexpectedly cater to everyone's impression of me, so I just continued like this."

"Actually, I don't hate tulle skirts. In other words, I don't hate any clothes, whether they are light, cute or sexy. As long as I can have a reason to wear them and there are people who are willing to appreciate and identify with them, then I will definitely be happy to wear them."

Having said this, she raised her head and looked at Chihaya Tetsuya:

"So, in Mr. Tetsuya's opinion, is your second design...suitable for me?"

"Yeah, it's definitely suitable."

"Really? Then, what specific aspects are suitable for me?"

"..."

After hearing this question, Chihaya Tetsuya did not answer immediately. After a puzzled silence, Sankaku Hatsuka covered his mouth in surprise.

"Eh? Could it be that those were just polite words?"

"of course not!"

Chihaya Tetsuya first shook his head repeatedly to deny Sankaku Hatsuka's statement, and then he replied in an uncertain tone:

"It's just... didn't Chuhua say before that I'm not allowed to praise you? So..."

"..."

This kind of meticulousness and consideration for every detail... Alas, he is really a headache.

"Forget it, this sentence is also an answer to me."

Sanjiao Chuhua stood up and returned to the original topic.

"Just follow Mr. Tetsuya's plan... As long as you think the clothes are suitable for me, I will wear them without hesitation."

As she spoke, she looked into Chihaya Tetsuya's eyes:

"The 'one-day-only changing doll' can be extended depending on the situation."

Just like that, the design and promise that will accompany Sankaku Hatsuka throughout her entire idol career was completely "finalized".

Chapter 34: Performance commission from Toyokawa Shoko.

In the recording studio of [RiNG], when the members of [MyGO!!!!!] were about to start practicing as usual, a light knock on the door suddenly interrupted them.

But when they opened the door of the recording studio, a figure appeared that was beyond everyone's expectations——

"Xiangzi?!"

Nagasaki Suyo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Eh?! What's going on? Why are you here at this hour?!"

She first looked behind Toyokawa Shoko, and after discovering that she did not bring her electronic keyboard, the surprise on her face faded a little.

"Is there something you want to discuss with us?"

"exactly."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded.

"I have a request... I'd like to ask everyone at [MyGO!!!!"

……

"You said... you prepared two songs for Summer Zodiac's May Live..."

Even though Nagasaki Motoyo had already learned from Chihaya Tetsuya that Toyokawa Shoko would be involved in the arrangement, she was still shocked when she heard that Toyokawa Shoko had completed two songs in such a short time.

"This is a bit too fast..."

“I was actually surprised myself.”

Toyokawa Shoko said:

"During my time as Chihaya-san's apprentice, I had much less time to devote to music than before, so I was worried that I might forget how to compose... But now it seems that this experience has actually allowed me to accumulate more inspiration that can be put to good use."

Having said that, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Shiina Riki who had been staring at her since the beginning.

"Lixi probably feels the same way, right? After experiencing something particularly unforgettable, his composing ideas suddenly become unusually broad."

“…Yes, that’s true.”

Shiina Riki nodded.

"After the last live ended... I also wrote several songs at home by myself..."

"Eh...? Why don't you just bring it here?"

Chihaya Aine suddenly made a rather confused sound.

"Wouldn't it be nice to just strike while the iron is hot and release a few more new songs?"

"Well...about this..."

Shiina Riki's expression seemed a little hesitant.

"Although the song was indeed composed, I always feel that it's a little inferior to the first song..."

"Hey, don't be so serious. Even if it's just for us to try it out together, it's fine! Maybe we can help with some revisions!"

Chihaya Aine curled her lips and said:

"If you're aiming for a mainstream debut, just one original song isn't enough!"

"Really? I already said the quality can't compare to the first song..."

Although Shiina Riki's tone was still a little hesitant, considering the future, she finally nodded helplessly.

"However, what you said does make sense. If you want to debut in the mainstream, one song is definitely not enough. Next time I come to practice, I will pick a few to try out."

"Then Deng can try writing lyrics based on the music! Right, Deng?"

"kindness!"

Takamatsu Touma also seemed to be looking forward to it.

"I want to try it!"

"Okay, then it's settled! As for Lenai, as long as it's a fun song, I think she'll have no objection. As for Sushi... the bassist's opinion doesn't matter!"

"..."

After hearing this comment, Nagasaki Motoyo just smiled and looked at Chihaya Aine silently.

Chihaya Aine, who felt a little uneasy at being looked at, quickly shrank her neck:

"I'm just kidding. You won't refuse, right?"

"……Ugh."

A helpless expression appeared on Nagasaki Suyo's face.

"Xiangzi hasn't finished her commission yet. If you want to make trouble, can you wait until she leaves?"

"It's okay. I think the reason MyGO!!!! is different from other bands is because of this delicate balance between chemistry and disagreement."

Toyokawa Shoko just smiled and shook her head.

"And as the client, I don't lack even this much patience."

"..."

After hearing this response, the figure of Chihaya Tetsuya subconsciously appeared in Nagasaki Suyo's mind.

Although before this, Toyokawa Shoko's words and deeds have always been much more calm than her peers, but now she can go a step further and add a touch of gentleness to this calmness.

This further maturity, in addition to untangling the knot that had lasted a year, must also be due to the influence of Chihaya Tetsuya...

Thinking of this, Nagasaki Suye first felt a hint of unspeakable envy in her heart, but then, when she thought of the contract that left Chihaya Tetsuya speechless, a smile appeared on her face again.

"Well, let's get straight to business. What does Xiangzi want to entrust us with?"

"Just like Chuhua said at the celebration party, I have a song I want you to play at this May Live. And in order to complete this collaborative program..."

Having said this, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Gao Songdeng:

"lamp."

"Eh?"

"I'll send you a demo of the song later."

Toyokawa Shoko said:

"Then you will be responsible for completing the lyrics of this song."

"Eh eh eh?!"

Gao Songdeng exclaimed in surprise after hearing this.

"T-How can this be possible?! This is a song for Summer Zodiac, right?! My lyrics aren't worthy of such a big stage—"

“Qualified.”
