But that was coupled with her weak and listless tone.

Even though it was spoken in a commanding tone, to Xiangzi it sounded almost like a request.

So Xiangzi gave up resisting.

In the time that followed, the two of them got along quite well, which was a rare occurrence.

……

Until the faint dawn outside the window had turned into bright sunlight.

It was almost noon.

After enjoying a truly lazy sleep, Arakawa Kirika reluctantly let go of Shoko.

Arakawa Kirika's phone vibrated; it seemed she hadn't set an alarm at all today.

With weary eyes, she glanced at the screen for a moment, then lazily pushed Xiangzi away from her body.

"Someone has arrived, go and greet them."

Xiangzi first sat up in bed subconsciously, then got up and got out of bed.

She only realized what was happening when she pushed open the bedroom door.

Wait a minute...

She suddenly came to her senses.

Arakawa Kirika was saying, "Someone has arrived; go and greet them."

Instead of letting her go get the food.

So... who exactly came here? And why did they specifically send someone to pick them up?

A sense of foreboding arose in Xiangzi's heart.

She turned around, wanting to seek answers from Arakawa Kirika.

But Arakawa Kirika had already turned her gaze to the scenery outside the window and completely ignored her.

So Xiangzi could only silently turn around and go downstairs.

...It shouldn't be harmony...It shouldn't be harmony...

Xiangzi silently thought to herself that she didn't want to have a terrible encounter with her childhood sweetheart in such a place.

Xiangzi only breathed a slight sigh of relief after stepping out of the room.

Because she saw that the person standing outside the iron gate was not her childhood sweetheart... but... a pink figure carrying a guitar case.

Xiangzi recalled for a moment, and realized that her name was indeed Chihaya Aine.

She still remembered the person in front of her; he was Deng's classmate, and of course... also that scumbag's classmate.

Arakawa Kirika would actually allow this person to come see her...?

Xiangzi felt a strange feeling.

But she still wore a slight smile and slowly walked towards Aine.

Aine looked very confused at this moment.

She found the place by following the location sent by Arakawa Kirika. Looking at the very grand mansion, Aine naturally regarded it as Arakawa Kirika's home.

only……

Ai Yin tilted her head, her eyes fixed on the words on the document.

【Toyokawa】

This is a point of contention that would seem strange to anyone.

If this is Arakawa's house, why does the house number say "Toyokawa"?

Ai-yin was very curious.

But Aine also saw the figure walking towards her, so she could only put aside her doubts for the time being.

She looked at Xiangzi, and was about to speak when he spoke first.

"It's nice to see you again, Aine."

Xiangzi called out the other person's name directly.

Xiangzi had a certain fondness for this outgoing girl who had shown him kindness from the start, was very polite, and whose appearance matched his aesthetic standards.

Ai Yin quickly responded to Xiangzi's greeting, and then directly raised her question.

"Um... I'm looking for Arakawa-san... Is she here?"

Xiangzi nodded.

Suddenly, Aine felt an overwhelming urge to gossip.

Her eyes suddenly sharpened, directly telling Aine that the relationship between Toyokawa-san in front of her and Arakawa-san was definitely not ordinary.

Otherwise... why would Arakawa-san choose Toyokawa-san's house as the meeting place?

"Please come in, Aine."

Xiangzi opened the door for Aiyin.

Ai Yin didn't stand on ceremony and went straight inside.

Just as Xiangzi was about to bring Aiyin into the house.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of someone... someone she absolutely didn't want to see at a time like this.

"Mu..."

She watched the figure approaching from a distance.

His gaze gradually froze.

Mu's expression was as calm as ever.

But this does not mean that her inner world is as calm as her outward appearance.

She saw Xiangzi immediately, of course.

But when she saw Xiangzi standing in the manor, she already understood a lot.

it is more than words.

There was nothing surprising about it, Mu said to himself.

She still remembered what Arakawa Kirika said on the day she transferred from Tsukinomori to Haneoka.

At that time, Mutsu asked Arakawa Kirika if she went to Haneoka because of Shoko.

Wuhua gave her a very clear answer.

Didn't I already know that all along...?

Why... even now... do I still feel...uncomfortable?

Mu lowered her head, because she felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart.

But the next second, as Mu looked up, she suppressed all her dark emotions.

She walked calmly to Xiangzi's side.

"Saki, how have you been lately?"

"……Um."

Mu greeted Xiangzi calmly, and Xiangzi responded awkwardly.

There was an unspoken understanding between the two.

Seeing this, Aine once again showed a puzzled expression on her face.

She keenly sensed the unusual atmosphere.

but……

Aine also has the urge to complain.

Do I have some strange new attributes?

After Lena joined the band, his own presence began to plummet.

And now... I'm such a conspicuous living person, and I even have pink hair!

Surprisingly, he failed to attract the attention of the two people in front of him.

Hey……

Aine, who followed the two into the room, sighed silently.

But this strengthened her resolve to learn guitar well.

If she doesn't work harder, she'll really become invisible.

Volume 1: Chapter 93 Be Kind to Her

Arakawa Kirika's feet made slight noises as they stepped on the wooden steps.

The three people who had just entered the room all looked in the same direction, following the sound.

Arakawa Kirika didn't change her clothes; she was still wearing her pajamas.

She wore a light, sheer white nightgown, and through the gaps in the openwork decoration on the upper body, one could vaguely glimpse the exposed skin of Arakawa Kirika.

If it weren't for her rather thin chest, it would surely be a beautiful sight.

"Have you all arrived?"

Arakawa Kirika's gaze lingered on the three people downstairs for a moment before heading straight for the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

She gently pulled back the curtains, and bright light instantly filled the room.

"It seems... there were some unexpected customers."

Arakawa Kirika's eyesight has always been excellent, so she clearly saw that outside the fence not far away, in the place where flowers and plants grew, there was a color that did not belong there.

Toyokawa Shoko looked puzzled.
