In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

Because Feng Xiangzi seemed to have woken up, if he went to see her wearing this skull mask, she would mistake him for a wandering ghost seeking revenge.

But what a coincidence, last time she helped Yili and I to disperse the three female thugs, this time it was my turn to help him.

Chen Xinghua, carrying his guitar bag, walked along the corridor filled with the smell of disinfectant to the ward where Toyokawa Shoko was.

The blue-haired girl lay on the hospital bed, her delicate, doll-like face looked pale due to weakness, her pupils were unfocused as she stared blankly at the drops of medicine dripping into her body.

Where am I?

The last thing in Shoko Toyokawa's memory is the moment when she fell on the street.

Did a kind person call and send me to the hospital?

The strong feeling of suffocation made Shoko Toyokawa stop thinking about this matter immediately, because going to the hospital would cost money.

And she, Shoko Toyokawa, once the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family, is now a customer service representative who has been optimized by the company and her assets are almost zero.

Generally speaking, girls of Toyokawa Shoko's age have many people to rely on when they encounter difficulties.

Parents, friends, and...

But Toyokawa Shoko believes that the only person she can rely on is herself.

Friends? I won’t let them see my miserable state.

Parents? My mother is a cold-blooded person by nature, and my father, a jerk, even buys me alcohol.

Shoko Toyokawa gritted her teeth, the only person she could rely on was herself.

"Hey, Feng Xiangzi."

Shoko Toyokawa looked up and saw a familiar figure carrying a guitar bag.

"Tell me how much this treatment will cost, and I will pay you back as soon as possible."

Just like what happened in the convenience store before, Chen Xinghua calmly stuffed the bill in his hand deeper into his pocket.

At the convenience store, Chen Xinghua noticed that something was wrong with Feng Xiangzi and asked her if she had encountered any difficulties recently.

Looking at Feng Xiangzi's weak appearance lying on the bed, you can tell that she has encountered very, very big difficulties.

How did Feng Xiangzi respond to Chen Xinghua?

She said she was doing well... so well that she fainted in the street due to exhaustion?

If it gets any better, wouldn't it be better to be in the crematorium?

He is just a little kid with a very strong self-esteem who would rather suffer himself than ask others for help.

"You owe me a life, Feng Xiangzi." Chen Xinghua said coldly. It seemed that he had to help her in another way.

"I will repay you." Toyokawa Shoko vaguely sensed that something was wrong with Chen Xinghua.

Judging from his behavior of actively returning the favor when receiving help from others, his current tone shouldn't be so indifferent.

People who speak in such a cold tone will not be eager to repay those who have helped them.

"Malnutrition and overwork... Can this body last until the day you repay me?" There was a hint of anger in Chen Xinghua's voice.

"Is there any trouble in your family? Tell me."

28.Box!!!

So that's how it is. Toyokawa Shoko understood Chen Xinghua's intention almost instantly.

He wanted to use this method to find out from me what difficulties her family had and then help me.

But the only one I can rely on is myself.

"Don't bother with that." Toyokawa Shoko's tone hardened, "I'll take care of it..."

Chen Xinghua took a step forward and approached Toyokawa Shoko.

"No, I'm thinking like a businessman."

She could see what she was thinking, but it didn't matter.

This is a conspiracy.

"If you send it due to overwork and malnutrition before repaying my life-saving grace, wouldn't the money I saved you be wasted?"

“I never do business at a loss.”

Before Feng Xiangzi could utter a word of refusal, Chen Xinghua spoke up, "Or is it that our classmate Feng Xiangzi is an ungrateful person who only cares about himself and has no intention of repaying his savior?"

For a moment, Toyokawa Shoko was silent. She didn't want to accept Chen Xinghua's help.

But how to refuse?

The way Chen Xinghua spoke was entirely from the perspective of a selfish businessman who was looking for a return of favor, rather than from the perspective of an altruistic, kind-hearted person.

This resulted in Toyokawa Shoko being unable to refuse Chen Xinghua's request, even though the request was made out of the desire to help her.

Because this request is reasonable in terms of non-emotional interests.

Indeed, if Toyokawa Shoko had sent the money before repaying Chen Xinghua for saving his life, then Chen Xinghua would have lost money.

So if I refuse this request, I will not only be rejecting other people's kindness, but also directly rejecting Chen Xinghua's life-saving grace.

But this was something that Shoko Toyokawa could not tolerate, as she had such a strong sense of self-esteem that she was unwilling to accept help from others.

"Do you need tuition fees? The higher the education level, the greater the reward I can get from you." Chen Xinghua sat on the chair next to the white hospital bed.

"Answer me, Feng Xiangzi."

"Yuqiu's tuition is free." Toyokawa Shoko said painfully. What should she do to refuse Chen Xinghua's help?

Obviously, it cannot be solved.

"And he's an excellent student." Chen Xinghua sighed, those who can be exempted from tuition are all excellent students.

"I've been working on a few part-time jobs lately."

"Five." Shoko Toyokawa grabbed the bed sheet, feeling as if she was being tortured.

"The doctor said you are malnourished... Before you are sent to hospital for malnutrition, tell me what you have been eating recently."

"eat..."

.....

The next few questions from Chen Xinghua were like a knife cutting into Toyokawa Shoko's self-esteem.

But Chen Xinghua didn't care at all.

Self-esteem is certainly important, but life is more important. If you have lost your life, what is the use of leaving only self-esteem?

If he lets Shoko Toyokawa continue to act like this, in a few days he will see the news on TV about a high school girl dying in a sewer.

I finally figured it out. Chen Xinghua looked at Feng Xiangzi's IV drip with boredom.

Miss Feng Xiangzi's family has recently encountered a financial crisis, so she goes to school like crazy to get a scholarship, and works like crazy after school to make money, but the food she eats every day is still worse than junk food.

At least eating junk food will make you fat, but eating the food that Miss Feng Xiangzi eats can make you thin enough to fit into an urn.

From a certain perspective, what Miss Feng Xiangzi eats is much more effective than any diet pills.

"I'm working on music lately and I'm in need of a handyman."

"Ms. Feng Xiangzi, I think you're really nice. Can you help me carry a bag or something?"

It's really high and mighty. Toyokawa Xiangzi has already thought of Chen Xinghua's subsequent approach, which is nothing more than helping her under the name of a part-time job.

She could think of several ways using the electronic piano she had at home, such as deliberately keeping her late and then giving her several times the overtime pay.

For example, he might offer me extra meals under the pretext of employee benefits. If I refuse, he will say I am damaging his reputation, and if others see him, they will think he is a black-hearted boss.

Although Toyokawa Shoko had already seen through Chen Xinghua's thoughts, could she refuse?

If she doesn't put herself in a position to receive help from others, she will have to put herself in a position to repay the help from others.

The latter is even more irresistible than the former.

"Ms. Feng Xiangzi, I'm giving you your first task now. Eat on time, go to bed on time, buy yourself some new clothes, and maintain your image."

"Otherwise, considering that you're always going to the hospital for work, I'm afraid people will accuse you of exploiting child labor."

That’s why I hate tsunderes the most.

Chen Xinghua looked at Feng Xiangzi who was suppressing his pain. People who didn't know him would think that he was torturing Feng Xiangzi.

I'm even hesitant to accept help from others...I'm a bit disappointed.

"I'll give you the money... Of course, this isn't help, it's a necessary expense, a debt you'll have to pay back in the future."

I don't want your help. Toyokawa Shoko wanted to say this, but she couldn't.

Because if you say that, Chen Xinghua will definitely reply with something like this.

"Do you think I'm doing this to help you? You're a woman who's only thinking about yourself. I'm just trying to improve my image. Do you want me to ruin my image by having a woman who could collapse from malnutrition at any moment?"

"Wait here for a moment, I'll go out to get the money." Chen Xinghua in reality said this as he walked towards the door.

Chen Xinghua stumbled backwards as if he had hit a steel plate.

"Feel sorry."

At this time, Chen Xinghua had not had time to put on the skull mask that he had stuffed into his guitar bag.

"You are Chen Xinghua from Class 2, Grade 1 at Xiuhua High School, right?" Xiduo said, looking at Chen Xinghua's face.

"Fuck, hey." Chen Xinghua said. Let's not talk about why Xiduo appeared here, but how she shouted his name as soon as she saw his face.

After eliminating all the answers, only one answer remains - box!

"No, I'm Kita from the same school as you." Kita clenched her fists, and her body kept shaking forward as she complained.

Are they from the same school? Why haven't I seen her before? As soon as this thought came to Chen Xinghua's mind, he answered it himself.

Because he couldn't even remember how many classmates he had.

"I'm sorry, it's been so long that I didn't notice that you and I are in the same class... right?" Chen Xinghua asked doubtfully. Knowing his name, he thought we should be in the same class.

But Chen Xinghua didn't remember seeing Xiduo in class.

But Chen Xinghua found it hard to imagine that someone would remember the names of classmates from other classes and whom he didn't know.

29. Xiduo from another class...I don't know her.

When Xiduo said that he was in another class in the same school as Chen Xinghua.

Chen Xinghua happened to be wearing a skull mask, and his voice became hoarse.

"Xiduo from another class...I don't know him."

"You cruel adult... No, aren't you a first-year student like me?" Xiduo followed Chen Xinghua without hesitation.

"Why did you say such cruel words to Sasori?"

It was so cruel that it didn't seem like something he would say at his age.

"Because she has no talent." Chen Xinghua stared up at the sky. "If you have no talent and no money, how are you going to make music? Are you going to make music in the basement?"

"It's better to study hard and become a civil servant or something."

They will definitely be successful in the band...Xiduo felt that in this situation, he should say this to refute Chen Xinghua.

But her common sense told her that Chen Xinghua was right.

The main source of income for most people playing in bands comes from odd jobs and their parents.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Just as Chen Xinghua stepped out of the hospital door, a shriveled wallet appeared in his sight.

"What do you want to do with an empty wallet?"

"Don't you have no money to pay Feng Xiangzi's medical bills?" Kita looked up. Although this guy spoke cruelly and did cruel things, his heart was not bad.

If he was a bad person, why would he care about Feng Xiangzi in such a tsundere way?

I'm not doing this because I want to help you...it's just because I would lose money if I didn't care about you.

It is a typical tsundere attribute.

Kita heard everything.
