"Not coming."

Liu Hao has a heart as strong as iron and will never be tempted.

"What kind of man are you if you go back on your word?"

"Who said on the mountain just now that no one in the band can be missing?"

"You're only good at talking, but you don't have any courage at all. You're so useless."

How can a man be called useless?

Liu Hao was furious. He shouted, "If you are useful, then come over and offer to serve me. There is no one here anyway, and there will be no one else here at this late hour."

Li Xi's voice came over: "Do the five of us still need to accommodate you?"

"If you don't want to come, then don't come. What excuses are there?"

"It's obviously you who didn't dare to come, and you're trying to turn the tables on me?"

In this way, the two sides pulled each other across the bamboo wall. In fact, everyone knew that they would not get through to each other. No matter whether there was someone there or not, and whether they were wearing clothes or not, going to the bathing pool of the opposite sex was a shameful thing. It was boring to just soak in the hot spring. How could it be as fun as laughing and joking with good friends like this?

The hot springs relieved my fatigue, but also caused the soreness in my hands and feet to flare up.

By the time everyone had finished their bath and put on the snow-white yukatas provided by the hot spring hotel and walked to the private room, every girl except Liu Hao moved slowly like a zombie. The more serious ones, like Su Shi, almost had to hold on to the wall, their legs trembling in the true sense.

As for Liu Hao, his legs were fine, but his hands were very sore.

"Are you okay?"

"Something's wrong." Gentle and mature Su Shi's eyes were watery at this moment. "My legs hurt so much, it feels like they're going to break."

"It's okay. Based on my experience, you'll be in more pain tomorrow."

"..."

Su Shi glanced at Liu Hao with an angry look. The snow-white yukata set off her beautiful and slender figure to the fullest, and her watery eyes were full of charm.

Su Shi was still a little reserved, so Lenai grabbed the hem of Liu Hao's yukata and said pitifully, "Liu Hao, I can't walk anymore, carry me."

"alright."

Liu Hao couldn't refuse the little girl's request, so he squatted down and carried Lenai's petite body on his back. As for the resentful Su Shi beside him, Liu Hao had no choice but to hand her his sore hand and let her support him as he walked inside.

Damn it, why can't I feel anything in my hands? Otherwise, I could feel the fullness of Su Shi's white jade-like breasts through two thin layers of cloth.

After entering the box, Liu Hao found that everyone was lying in a circle around the table in groups of three or four. It must be said that the young beauties were wearing the same yukata, which wrapped their slim bodies, revealing their white calves and tender skin after bathing. It was really pleasing to the eye.

"Don't lie down. The more sore your legs are, the more you need to exercise and stretch, otherwise they will be even more sore tomorrow."

Liu Hao put Lenai down, stepped on the corner of Riki's clothes, kicked Aine's arm, and motioned for them to stand up and stretch. "You can also soak in the hot spring for a while before going to bed. Hot compresses are also very useful for relieving muscle soreness."

"Leave me alone~ I don't want to move at all now..."

Aine's long pink hair spread out on the tatami, and it seemed as if the playfulness just now was her last ripple, which had now burned out.

Li Xi tried to stand up stubbornly, his legs trembling, and then Li Xi gave up. Everyone was lying down, and only you and Liu Hao stood up. Wouldn't that be unsociable?

"Are you so tired?"

Aine: “I’m so tired.”

"Will you come to the team building next time?"

"Of course!" Gao Songdeng said without hesitation, "Everyone should come together."

Aiyin also struggled to sit up: "Nonsense, of course we do, we are a band!"

Volume 122: Chapter Chapter Are we a band or a mountaineering team?

The light of incandescent lamps shines through the house, and the warm texture of the wood gives people a cozy feeling under the dim light.

The proprietress was wearing a pink kimono. She was at least forty years old and not very pretty, but she had a good and gentle temperament, which perfectly matched Liu Hao's imagination of a "hot spring lady general".

Sashimi platter, grilled saury, gunkan sushi, miso soup... The dishes served by the proprietress are all homely flavors of a small Japanese restaurant, and of course there is also the soba noodles that Kaname likes. This small shop does not have matcha parfait, but it still has ordinary cream ice cream.

Liu Hao was a little surprised: "It's such a big hot spring hotel, but I didn't see any other waiters?"

"That's normal." Su Shi picked up a piece of grilled eel for Liu Hao and replied, "Many hot spring inns in Japan are like this. They're run by a couple. The husband cooks in the kitchen, and the wife greets guests at the front desk. It's a clear division of labor."

"It's the same with penguins," Takamatsu Deng said seriously. "Mom hunts, Dad takes care of the kids. They work together and divide the work. They're a warm family."

Liu Hao nodded vigorously and said, "That makes sense. It's actually the same in our band. You girls are responsible for paying, and I, the boy, am responsible for eating. We have a clear division of labor and we are good friends who are united."

"Humph~"

Aine pouted and said, “Shameless.”

Liu Hao said with a smile: "I don't deny that I am shameless. Besides, you and I are the same."

"You still owe me two tickets to the aquarium."

"In this era, the one who owes money is the boss."

"Uncle, give me back the money!"

"Granddaughter, no."

No matter how cheerful Aiyin was, she was no match for Liu Hao, who had been honed through bickering with his adoptive fathers and adopted sons in the dormitory every day. However, they were just joking around and chatting, and the girl felt very happy as long as she could chat and banter with Liu Hao.

“I think this is actually quite good.”

Su Shi held up her rosy cheeks and murmured, "Husband and wife run a business together. When there are guests, they divide the work and cooperate. When there are no guests, they sit together by the hot spring and drink a glass of sake facing the moon. Even an ordinary life is wonderful."

Li Xi interrupted, "Yeah, I also think it's good to live in the countryside. I can live the way I want."

“You can see Mount Fuji every day!”

Gao Songdeng blinked and counted on his fingers, saying, "There are also camellias, camphor trees, and oleanders."

Liu Hao had the most say in this matter. After all, he was the only one from the countryside among this group of Tokyo gentlemen. He said, "You guys are the typical example of not knowing how expensive fuel and rice are when you don't manage the household. You talk easily and think you can live however you want. Look at today, it's Sunday. If we hadn't come here, there would be no customers at all."

"What's wrong with no customers?" Aine said unconvincedly, "Just like us, if there's no audience, won't we just stop playing?"

"What are you talking about?"

Liu Hao slammed the table and said, "You declared defeat before the battle and disrupted the army's morale. What crime should you take, Ain? Li Xi, drag Ain away and give her a hundred beatings with the military stick as a warning to others."

"No." Li Xi glanced at Liu Hao, "You don't think I still have the strength to hit her, do you?"

Liu Hao teased, "Aren't you someone who plays drums even in your seventies and eighties? How come you don't have the energy?"

Aiyin looked at Li Xi, a smug and innocent smile on her face: "That's because Li Xi couldn't bear to hit me. We're the kind of people who encourage each other to the very top of the mountain, right Li Xi?"

"Humph~"

Shiina Riki snorted lightly but did not refute. She was a person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Now that she had precious memories with everyone, she was looking forward to the time when they would work hard together on the stage in the future.

After all, it is not polite to comment on other people's lives, so everyone changed the subject. Of course, the main reason was that the proprietress knocked on the door again and came in to serve the dishes. She put down the plates gracefully, bowed and smiled after introducing the dishes, and left, gentle and generous.

"The boss lady has such a nice temperament."

Aine held her face in her hands and said with some longing, “When can I become a Yamato Nadeshiko like this?”

Liu Haorui commented on this: "Su Shi still has a chance, you? Maybe in the next life."

Su Shi pursed her lips and smiled slightly, while Ai Yin bared her fangs in dissatisfaction at Liu Hao: "Tsk, just talking. Compared to the traditional ones, I am still more fashionable."

Liu Hao said with a smile: "Really?"

"Of course."

"How are you?"

"you……"

Secretly stabbing someone in the lungs should have been a rather unpleasant thing to do, but when Aine saw Yanagi's hateful smile and those eyes as deep as the stars on her face, she didn't get angry at all. She even felt a little happy. If they weren't close friends, why would she make such a joke so casually?

Of course, I wasn't angry in my heart, but I still had to hum on the surface to pretend to be angry.

Liu Hao stopped teasing his loyal ally and changed the subject, "But compared to fashion, I still prefer traditional culture."

Li Xi ate a piece of sushi and asked casually, "For example?"

"I heard mixed bathing is a traditional Japanese culture. How about finding a hot spring that offers mixed bathing next time?"

Li Xi sneered: "You wish."

"Tsk, Li Xi, you know this guy, he's just a bit stubborn." Aiyin challenged Liu Hao, "Next time we go to a hot spring with mixed bathing, anyone who doesn't go in will be a dog. I swear."

"I don't swear."

"No guts."

"The provoking method is of no use to me."

"Humph~"

Gao Songdeng looked at the scene of everyone happily chatting with each other, and felt incomparably satisfied. She said, "After the concert, let's go climb Mount Fuji together!"

Su Shi: “…”

Aiyin: “…”

Lenai: “Baji, baji…” (Eating ice cream)

Li Xi: "Okay, let's climb Mount Fuji!"

Liu Hao: "Lixi, you can't go, you are sick."

"Huh?" Li Xi frowned slightly and looked at Liu Hao, "What's wrong with me?"

"Are you not sick?"

"Of course I'm not sick."

"Then take a few steps if you are not sick."

"..."

Li Xi's fair face flushed slightly. She now understood what Liu Hao meant. Her thighs were sore and swollen that it was difficult for her to walk a few steps. However, the girl said firmly, "We have to go to Mount Fuji. We succeeded today, and we will definitely be able to do it in the future."

Liu Haoxin thought that he had risked half his life just to drag the five of you up here today. If you really want to climb Mount Fuji, won’t you die?

"Okay, you're courageous. Let's set this goal, Mount Fuji."

Liu Hao still agreed with Li Xi. Of course, he would not deny such ambition.

Sushi and Aine exchanged a glance and each expressed their stance—

"If you really want to go to Mount Fuji, you can't take it so lightly."

"Mount Fuji, if I try hard, I should be able to climb it, right?"

Liu Hao said, "This isn't a matter of trying hard. If you don't want your legs to break halfway, then you should exercise well. Go for a run in the morning, and do some aerobic and anaerobic exercise in the evening..."

"No, are we a band or a mountaineering team?"

Aine's words caused everyone to think, but in the end, everyone came to the same conclusion -

Is it important?

Important, but not that important.

Volume 123: Chapter Chapter I treat you as a friend, but you actually want my body

Finally, we decided to climb Mount Fuji together during the summer vacation, so we would have plenty of time to prepare.

With Aine's reminder, everyone suddenly realized that they were a band, not a mountaineering team, so they set the goal of performing at the Budokan.

Although they were a band, compared to climbing Mount Fuji, no one cared about the goal of performing at the Budokan, of course, with the exception of Tatsuki Shiina.

Only Li Xi really sets her career goals for herself. She has always been strict with others and even stricter with herself.

As for Yao Lenai, who is a real professional, Maomao thinks that as long as he plays the guitar happily, that's enough.

Maybe I should add a little more now, to have fun eating and playing with everyone.

Yao Lenai now admires her own judgment. What an interesting man! And what an interesting woman!

Lush short trees were planted beside the bathing pool, their heavy branches just a little above the water surface. The lights beside the bathing pool were reflected on the water, swaying with the ripples in the water.

Before going to bed, Liu Hao took another hot spring bath to further relax his muscles. He had already spent the money, so wouldn't it be a huge loss if he didn't take a few more baths?

Of course, there is a more important reason. There is only one large Japanese room for tonight's training camp, which means that he, the only male, will have to sleep in the same room with the girls. It would be embarrassing if he went over there now and ran into someone changing clothes or playing. Liu Hao planned to wait until everyone was in bed before going in, and then spread the mattress in the corner, which would be safer.

Feeling the warm spring water wrapping around his body and thinking about everything that happened during the day, Liu Hao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

In the past, when he climbed a mountain, he always climbed alone with a backpack on his back. He didn't feel lonely when he looked at the scenery along the way, because the joy of climbing lies in the scenery along the way and the sense of accomplishment when reaching the top. It's just that having a group of people holding him back like today seems quite interesting.
