Volume 225: Chapter Chapter Concert

Liu Hao felt as if he was trapped in The Truman Show.

But it's also a little different. At the beginning, it was probably like The Truman Show, where she made use of the information obtained through chat messages. After all, Liu Hao was a stranger at that time, but the other people she cared about were real.

But things were different afterwards, because sincerity could indeed be exchanged for sincerity, but not complete sincerity.

I don't feel that much resentment, but there's a thorn in my heart, and I suddenly doubt the meaning of all this.

Just as Liu Hao said, he wouldn't completely deny a person because of one thing, just like he wouldn't demand himself to be a saint, because he knew he had many shortcomings, so he wouldn't demand others to be perfect either. Ruoye Mu was still lovely, Nagasaki Suyo was still a good girl worthy of love, and Sanjiao Chuhua was still the cool but somewhat humble idol in front of Xiangzi, a confidant with similar experiences to him...

But Liu Hao was a little confused for a while. He knew that he shouldn't get stuck in a dead end, but it's okay for an ordinary person to be confused for a while and feel sad about the passing of time, right?

Sunday evening at 6pm, RiNG.

Almost all the concertgoers had already entered the venue. Everyone was excitedly chatting about their favorite bands and members, especially the two famous girl bands PoPiPa and Afterglow, which almost everyone talked about. As for the band whose name on the program was "Takamatsu Tou", of course no one was interested.

"Ah... We still haven't decided on a band name, and we don't even have a uniform. This hassle-free approach gives me a bad feeling... I really want to wear cute clothes on stage too..."

In the lounge backstage, Chihaya Aine sat on the sofa and kept swinging her legs. Talking was just one of her ways to relieve tension. Another way was just like Takamatsu Deng now, drinking water constantly.

No matter how many times I practiced, and there was no problem with last night's rehearsal, but when it really came to this moment, the thought of standing under the flash lights and facing the huge audience below the stage still made me nervous as hell, and my hands on my knees were shaking.

"Don't say discouraging things, as if we are not prepared and will fail."

Shiina Riki crossed his arms and paced back and forth in the lounge. "The band name and costumes aren't important. We've been preparing for a long time, and Deng's song is the best. There won't be any problems."

Aine curled her lips. "You're still walking around. You've been walking for almost half an hour. I'm getting more and more nervous."

"Huh? You've been talking longer than I have, haven't you?"

"What happened to my words?"

Seeing her two teammates tense up due to nervousness, Nagasaki Motoyo quickly tried to smooth things over: "It's good that Aine spoke. Otherwise, if there was no sound at all, I think everyone would be even more nervous."

“That’s right.” Aine responded.

Su Shi smiled and said, "But you can't say anything discouraging, otherwise everyone will still be nervous."

"I'm afraid it will be a dull occasion..."

Aiyin took a sip of water. In fact, she was more afraid of making mistakes. The confidence of a rookie was of course gone when it came time to go on stage.

At this moment, the lounge was quiet for a moment, and in this moment, cheers from the venue were heard, even from backstage, which shows how enthusiastic the audience's emotions were.

In fact, Su Shi was also quite nervous, but she was able to control herself a little, so she was able to encourage everyone not to be nervous. As she said, with her constantly making small talk, at least the tense atmosphere could be eased.

I guess only Kaname is not nervous at all. The more people there are, the more excited she is. She is so confident in her skills.

"It's time to get ready~"

Two beautiful girls pushed the door open and informed the band members in the lounge to get ready.

Seeing that it was Aoba Moka and Uehara Himari from the band Afterglow who came in, Shiina Riki, who had been walking around just now, suddenly stopped where she was, covered her skirt with her hands, and bowed nervously to the two band members: "Thank you for the notice, I appreciate your guidance!"

Uehara Himari blinked her eyes and said, "Please give me your guidance."

Aoba Moka, who was holding her friend's shoulder, looked at Li Xi and raised an eyebrow, praising him: "Very energetic, not bad."

Li Xi was so nervous that he couldn't speak. He only breathed a sigh of relief after the two band seniors left.

The others had never seen Li Xi like this before, and they all looked at her with ridicule.

Lenai: "Do you like them?"

Li Xi turned his head and said: "It's so noisy!"⑧

Su Shi smiled widely: "I remember Li Xi's favorite band is Afterglow."

"It's so noisy!"

In order to change the subject, Li Xi pretended to take out his cell phone, and then he couldn't help but say what he had been hiding in his heart, "Why hasn't Liu Hao come yet? Does he take the concert seriously?"

"That's right." Aiyin bit her lip and responded, "He's the only one who doesn't need to be nervous here. It's really too much."

Some words, once spoken, can't be stopped. Shiina Riki folded her arms across her chest, her right fingernails digging into the flesh of her forearm. She frowned and said, "Next time he wants to leave, I'll definitely hold him back. He's the most irresponsible person when it comes to the band he formed, as if the band isn't important to him."

Su Shi shook her head and spoke up for Liu Hao, saying, "Liu Hao will definitely be on time when he says he'll come. He also values ​​everyone and the band."

"Well……"

"Humph."

After Su Shiyi spoke, Li Xi and Ai Yin looked at each other. They didn't know what to say, but they felt a little complicated in their hearts, as if something was missing and they couldn't feel at ease at all.

Takamatsu Deng, who had been silent for a long time, clenched her hands even more tightly. She seemed to be doing better than Aine, but in fact, she was not as nervous as Yanagi. She could hardly speak. The concert had a special meaning for Takamatsu Deng. After all, CRYCHIC disbanded after the first concert.

There are some things that Gao Songdeng doesn't quite understand. Why does the atmosphere in the band seem a little strange recently? What is the relationship between Su Shi and Xiangzi and Liu Hao... However, Gao Songdeng understands one thing, that is, Liu Hao no longer belongs entirely to their band. This makes her feel insecure. She wants to do something but doesn't know how to do it.

Deng had a bad feeling, so he became even more nervous.

That's right, Liu Hao is the only one in the band who is not in the lounge, or even in this world. However, this is not because Liu Hao is too confused. On the contrary, he attaches great importance to this concert and hopes that it will be a success and become a beautiful memory in everyone's hearts. He will not affect others because of his confusion.

Liu Hao was just taking Ma Yuan's exam. He would never let other things affect his studies. What happened yesterday made him understand the reality beyond the Gravity Unicom package.

"Teacher, I want to hand in my paper."

"So soon? Don't you need to check again?"

"Well, goodbye teacher."

Liu Hao finished the test paper in forty minutes, handed it in early, picked up his schoolbag and walked out of the classroom.

What the hell is there to check? He still has a concert to go to.

Volume 226: Chapter Chapter On and Off Stage

"Liu Hao still hasn't come?"

"Deng, do you want to rehearse again?"

"Well?"

"Okay, I think it's better to do it once first...ah, no, I need to go to the bathroom."

"Aine, you drank too much water. Do you want to go too? You drank a lot of water too."

……

The tense atmosphere in the lounge was completely uncontrollable. Su Shi's concern did not help at all. Ai Yin, who usually helped to ease the atmosphere in the band, lost Liu Hao's singing and coordination. It was as if Shuke had lost Beta or Haier had lost his brother. She herself was extremely nervous and of course had no way to ease the atmosphere.

As for Lenai, of course the cat can't be counted on because she is just a cat.

Without Liu Hao, the band's appearance is still there, but it seems to have lost its soul.

"Get ready to go on stage~"

RiNG's store manager, Ms. Rinrinko, opened the door and informed everyone in the band that it was time to get ready for the performance.

"Huh? So soon?"

Li Xi raised her eyebrows in surprise. She immediately turned to Su Shi and asked, "How is it? Liu Hao still hasn't arrived?"

Su Shi looked at her phone and said, "He said he has left the examination room and will be here soon. Let's get ready first."

"I really don't know what to say to him."

[It's like this again. Apart from Su Shi, no one else can contact A Liu.]

Aine pouted. The person who was once so close to her, the person who made her heart flutter, was simply one half of the best duo. Suddenly, it was as if they were from two different worlds. She felt really unwilling to accept it.

"You still have members who haven't arrived yet?" Miss Rinrinko blinked. "Is this really okay?"

Su Shi replied in a sweet voice, "No problem."

In short, the arrow is on the string and has to be shot, no matter how nervous you are, no matter how huge the difficulties are, unless you run away now, you will definitely have to go into battle.

In a large LiveHouse like RiNG, a concert will have multiple venues, and there will also be multiple bands performing at the same time. Audiences who have bought tickets can decide which small venue to go to and which band to listen to based on the program provided in advance by the organizer.

This will lead to a situation where if the band is not well-known, or is scheduled to perform at the same time as a popular band, there may be very few audience members in the audience. Although in theory a small audience will reduce the tension of the band members, the sense of frustration sometimes has a greater impact.

The Takamatsu Deng Band was originally a temporary replacement and didn't even have a formal band name, let alone a reputation. Naturally, there were only a few dozen scattered audience members in the audience, and several of them were Aine and Deng's classmates.

Taking a deep breath, Chihaya Aine hugged her guitar, her heart almost beating out of her chest.

She followed Li Xi in front of her from the backstage to the stage, and saw that there were indeed not many audiences below the stage. Her nervousness did not subside at all, but instead she felt more disappointed.

But after hearing Li Xi raise his hand and shout "Liu Hao, this way!", Ai Yin's mood suddenly relaxed a little - really, how can the pressure-resistant duo be without Liu as the bottom member!

In fact, it was not just Liu Hao, but also Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsuki were in the audience. Of course, they would not miss the first concert of Liu Hao and her former friend. Liu Hao also came over from an inconspicuous corner through Wakaba Mutsuki, and they just entered the venue together, so they just caught up.

"I've passed."

"Well refueling!"

After nodding to Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mu, Liu Hao walked onto the stage from the sparse crowd holding a light green guitar.

The waving palm was slightly bent, and then slowly lowered. Toyokawa Shoko watched Liu Hao's back gradually walk out of the dark stage beside her and onto the stage under the spotlight, where there was his band, Nagasaki Suyo, bright lights and a shining future.

The girl bit her thin lips, because she had a lot of knots in her heart. It was obviously a simple scene, but she understood it with a different meaning. She knew that she was being too picky, but what did it matter? She still continued to be picky.

Toyokawa Shoko completely let go of her hands. The girl looked at Nagasaki Suyo on the stage, and suddenly the corners of her mouth curled up, raising a smile like a winner.

[Su Shi, I win. I love Liu Hao more than you do. I love him so much that I can even consider letting him go... Can you do that?]

But this smile only lasted for a moment, and the girl's beautiful face lost all expression. Who would like such a victory?

"Xiao Xiang."

"kindness?"

Ruoye Mu pursed his lips and said, "It feels like you're about to break down..."

"Really? Xiao Mu, you can joke now too. Is it all thanks to Liu Hao?"

Shoko Toyokawa put on a mask called a smile. If a person's heart is always tossed between strength and weakness, it would be like a stone that expands and contracts with heat and cold. It will not become strong, but will just be riddled with holes.

"Well--"

Ruoye Mu blinked at Xiangzi. She could sense that something was wrong with him, but she couldn't understand why. "You've already kissed Liu Hao, so why are you still unhappy? Is it because of Su Shi?" "But wouldn't it be nice if we could all be together? I don't mind that Liu isn't just my idol anymore... Okay, I still mind a little, but if it were Xiangzi and Su Shi, I wouldn't mind so much."

"You're so slow! You're almost late. Do you know that?"

Chihaya Aine glared at Liu Hao, but the smile on her lips revealed her true thoughts. Faced with such great pressure, it turned out that they still needed the pressure-resistant duo to work together to withstand it.

"Isn't this not late? It's just right."

Liu Hao, as usual, put on a serious face and spoke in a tone of pretended solemnity, "This is what the protagonist is like. He always appears at the very end, so it's obvious that I am the protagonist."

"Huh, you're still the protagonist? Go to the corner and play your accompaniment~"

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to make a mistake, and then I'll come to the rescue."

"That's a nice thought, but I'm telling you, there's no chance of that happening!"

"So confident?"

“That’s how confident I am!”

Aiyin pouted her lips and glared at the smiling Liu Hao, half of her fangs showing. For a moment, she even forgot that she was still on the stage. Looking at Liu Hao's handsome face that was carefully groomed, it was as if she had returned to the good times when she bickered with him. At that time, she was not worried about the concert at all, she just thought that forming a band was so much fun.

Li Xi was just about to say something to Liu Hao, but he saw Su Shi walk up, stand on tiptoe and gently help Liu Hao turn up his collar, then pull his collar to help him tidy up his appearance. The girl with long straight black hair clenched the drumstick, and the words she wanted to say were stuck on her tongue, but she couldn't say them.

After all, they were going on stage to perform. Besides the other girls getting dressed up a bit, Liu Hao also cleaned up a bit to avoid being a drag on the others. Feeling lost is one thing, but getting things done is another. Just like the Marxist theory exam, even though she only took half the time, Liu Hao was still confident she'd score above 95.

"More handsome than usual... Liu Jun, you obviously know how to dress well."

Su Shi said softly that although she would rather Liu Hao not dress up, so that she would always be her Liu Hao and would not attract any more men, she still felt a little resentful after seeing Liu Hao's handsome appearance in the TV commercials. It would of course be better if this handsomeness belonged to her alone.

"Everyone looks so beautiful today, I can't let them down."

Liu Hao gave thumbs up to the band members. Takamatsu Deng and Kaname Rana were still as cute as lotus flowers emerging from clear water. Aine and Riki were obviously dressed up, especially Riki, who wore a pair of triangular earrings and light lipstick on her lips. Her raised eyes and teardrop mole complemented each other, making her look mature and beautiful.

Nagasaki Suyo only wore light makeup, but the girl was naturally cheerful and charming, and the simple dress made her look very attractive.

Liu Hao looked at the smiling girl in front of him, and there seemed to be no turbulent waves in his heart. In fact, the thoughts of love and guilt still prevailed. He used to think that Su Shi had done nothing wrong, but still lost the important existence in her heart. But now, did Su Shi make a big mistake?

"How long are you going to see each other? Get ready for the show!"

Li Xi's impatient voice interrupted the two people who were looking at each other with their own thoughts. There was only less than three minutes of preparation time before the performance. This was the band's first live performance. The ambitious Li Xi certainly would not let the team members waste time. That's right, that's it, and it has nothing to do with jealousy or anything.

Liu Hao patted Gao Songdeng’s shoulder and gave her an encouraging thumbs-up. After the girl pursed her lips and nodded seriously, Liu Hao walked to the last row with his guitar and plugged it into a set of speakers that had been added temporarily.

However, during this period of time, some changes had already taken place in the audience, and the reason was the words "Liu Hao, this way" that Li Xichao had just shouted out loudly.

"Liu Hao? This name seems familiar."

"Indeed... I remember now. Is that Yanagi Hao who acted opposite Mana and composed the music for Love Training?"
