In music anime, band girls won't be alone.

"I came here on behalf of my mother."

"She talked to you about some things this afternoon. I don't know the specifics, but from what she said, it seemed like the process didn't go very smoothly."

"Maybe my mother was worried that it wouldn't be clear over the phone, so she wanted me to ask Ze Jun if he would like to meet her and have a meal together or something."

Shirakawa Sawa realized what was going on and couldn't help but marvel at how small the world was. The person who had been looking for him all afternoon was actually Nagasaki Motoyo's mother.

At that moment, he realized that this piece of music had brought him an opportunity to gain benefits beyond just money.

There are completely different effects between cooperating directly with the other party's mother and cooperating with her through Nagasaki Motoyo.

Undoubtedly, the latter can achieve a closer cooperative relationship and effectively expand their network of contacts.

A hint of apology immediately appeared on his face.

"Excuse me, Su Shi, I didn't know that woman was your mother this afternoon..."

The apology here is truly sincere.

If he had known beforehand that the person contacting him was Nagasaki Motoyo's mother, his attitude would definitely have been gentler.

Nagasaki Motoyo quickly replied that it was alright.

Shirakawa Sawa then spoke.

"As a friend, I certainly won't put you in a difficult position..."

Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes lit up a little.

"What Ze Jun means is..."

Shirakawa Ze nodded.

"I can meet with your mother and talk, but I really don't know when I'll have time tomorrow."

"If possible, let's do it the day after tomorrow, either noon or evening is fine."

Nagasaki Motoyo nodded immediately.

"Okay, Ze-jun."

"Then I'll go back and talk to my mom."

Shirakawa glanced at the time; it was nearly 1 a.m., so he stood up.

"Let me take you home. It's so late, I'm still a little worried about you."

Nagasaki Motoyo nodded, a hint of joy appearing in her eyes.

After leaving the house, Shirakawa looked around and saw a taxi nearby. He immediately waved at it, glancing at the girl beside him with a hint of joy on his face.

"Su Shi, you're so lucky, you actually got a taxi."

Nagasaki Motoyo echoed this sentiment without any emotion.

"sodayo."

If she could, she would now pay twice as much to get rid of this taxi driver.

But no.

After getting in the car, Shirakawa Sawa took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat, while Nagasaki Motoyo sat in the back seat.

Aside from the taxi driver constantly feeling like he was being scrutinized by sharp, dagger-like eyes, there wasn't much to say about the journey.

A dozen minutes later, the taxi stopped downstairs at the Nagasaki Sue family's house.

After saying goodbye, the girl reluctantly got out of the car, and then Shirakawa asked the taxi driver to go back the way he came to take her home.

Back at his residence, Shirakawa Sawa saw the gift box that Nagasaki Motoyo had brought.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, something worth tens of thousands of yen isn't much to the other party.

After taking a shower, Shirakawa returned to his bedroom, ready to get a good night's sleep.

As he unfolded the crumpled blanket, a sock suddenly flew out.

Shirakawa glanced at them; they were white mid-calf cotton socks with lace trim, clearly women's style.

This style directly excludes itself from the competition with Takamatsu lamps.

Is that Nagasaki Motoyo?

He suddenly remembered that when he woke up, he vaguely felt that there was a girl next to him.

Why is it definitely a girl?

Because he touched something that the man didn't have, and touched it several times.

But as soon as he opened his eyes, the girl disappeared.

At the time, he thought it was a dream.

Now think about it...

It's very likely that Nagasaki Motoyo was lying next to him at that time.

That would also explain why it took her so long to wake me up...

Shirakawa Sawa felt himself starting to sweat.

He couldn't help but slap his own hand twice, filled with resentment.

"What the hell are you groping around for?"

"What is Nagasaki Motoyo supposed to think now?"

"She definitely..."

"Wait, why is she lying next to me...?"

Shirakawa felt that today was a bit too strange. He sighed and threw away his socks.

He couldn't possibly keep that sock.

It's even less likely that they would return it to its rightful owner.

After all, the other party has chosen to remain silent, and if I were to return the favor, it would only make things more awkward for both of us.

On the other side, after opening the door to her home, Nagasaki Motoyo saw her mother sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Hearing the door open, Nagasaki's mother turned her head, looked her up and down, and then smiled.

"Little Su Shi is back?"

Nagasaki Motoyo was slightly embarrassed, but she nodded with a forced smile, and then walked up to her mother.

"I originally wanted to ask Ze... Shirakawa-kun to come out and talk tomorrow..."

He said he might not be free tomorrow, but he could be free tonight.

"I thought it would be best to help my mother settle this matter as soon as possible, so I arranged to meet him tonight..."

"He agreed to meet with his mother to talk. The day after tomorrow, either noon or evening, is fine. I don't know if you're available."

A smile bloomed on Nagasaki's mother's face. She stood up and hugged Nagasaki Motoyo, her voice filled with relief.

“I am really touched that Xiao Su Shi cares so much about her mother.”

"Tell Shirakawa that I'm free the day after tomorrow at noon and in the evening. He can decide the time and place."

Nagasaki Motoyo nodded, indicating that she understood.

Nagasaki's mother patted her daughter on the shoulder.

"Then Xiaosu should go to sleep early. I'm going to bed too."

After saying that, she loosened her arms and turned to walk towards her room.

At this point, she was certain that her daughter had not had any deep interaction with Shirakawa.

She gathered some information during the hug.

First, Nagasaki Motoyo's hair wasn't freshly washed; it didn't smell of sweat.

Secondly, there was no dry saliva smell or masculine odor around Nagasaki Motoyo's mouth.

Third, since Nagasaki Motoyo did not have the smell of someone who had just brushed their teeth, washed their face, or taken a shower, it can be confirmed that the first two pieces of information are valid.

The reason she cares about this is not because she objects to her daughter having close relationships with men at this time.

Rather, it was because she was about to discuss a collaboration with Shirakawa Sawa, and his relationship with her daughter would affect the purpose of her meeting with him…

Volume 1: Chapter 106 Invitation to Watch the Live Broadcast (Fourth update today)

Shirakawa Sawa was unaware of the thoughts of the Nagasaki mother and daughter.

He slept soundly until the next morning, then leisurely washed up, opened the refrigerator, and saw that there was still some beef left over from the braised beef a few days ago. So he took it out to thaw, intending to cut off a little bit to make beef rice noodles.

Just as he was preparing the condiments, he heard the doorbell ring.

He glanced at the time; it was a little past eight in the morning. He thought to himself, "Even on holidays, Yutenji Wakame arrives so early."

Upon opening the door, Shirakawa immediately apologized to the person upstairs, because standing in the doorway was Kita Ikuyo, carrying a guitar bag.

"Jiang Jiang! Good morning, Ze Jun!"

As soon as the door opened, a bright smile immediately lit up the other person's face, and they greeted him with great enthusiasm.

Shirakawa Ze replied with a smile, then stepped aside.

"Has Kita had breakfast yet? I just started making it."

Kita Ikuyo nodded as she changed her shoes.

"Great! I never thought I'd get a free meal here!"

"Let me see what the Shirakawa family is having for dinner today!"
