People are in Mygo, and I can write their personalities.

After thinking about it, she realized that her mother was right. She really needed to go and see Su Shi and the others. Since she had already disappointed Mu, she couldn't let others disappoint her as well.

Speaking of which, Chu Hua's matter is still unresolved; it's been left unresolved until now. It's about time we went to talk to her...

Thinking of this, Xiangzi put down his mother's "body," took out his phone, hesitated for a long time, and then dialed Chuhua's number.

"……Hey?"

"Chuhua, are you alright?"

"Hoo hoo... Me? I'm fine, Xiangzi..."

"Are you running? Um... Chuhua, I've been thinking about what you said last time. I'm sorry, but I really can't accept what you said. But I hope we can still be friends..."

"It's alright, Xiangzi."

Toyokawa Shoko frowned. She noticed that Chu Hua's way of addressing her had become somewhat distant from the very beginning.

"Xiangzi, I don't need you anymore, because I already have Sister Yue, hehe...hehehe..."

"..."

Xiangzi's face immediately darkened, and he promptly hung up the phone.

Traitors! They're all traitors!

Chapter 106 How could Nagasaki Motoyo be so wicked! (4000 words)

"Xiao Xiang? You're finally here!"

Hearing the sound of the recording studio door being pushed open behind her, Nagasaki Motoyo, who had just had a cold expression, immediately showed a look of surprise and ran to the person who came in.

Her sycophantic behavior made Chihaya Aine grit her teeth in disgust. She could only watch helplessly as this shameless duo exchanged a bunch of pleasantries that she barely understood in front of her.

"Um... I'm sorry, I've been dealing with family matters for quite some time."

"N-nothing's alright." Nagasaki Motoyo shook her head. "As long as you're alright, that's all that matters. There's already a problem with Mutsu, and I don't want you to have any other thoughts, Sho."

"..."

Xiangzi's expression changed slightly, and a hint of unease appeared in her eyes. After all, she had left her mother alone and had no idea what was happening over there.

Although her mother trusted Mutsu completely, saying that she wouldn't be harmed if she was with her, Xiangzi still felt some regret afterward.

Who knows what Mu might do now?

That person is mentally ill...

"Xiao Xiang, what's wrong?"

"Ah... I'm fine, I was just thinking about the band."

"..." This time it was Nagasaki Motoyo's turn to change her expression. "I'm sorry, Sho, I haven't told you these past two days, but I was actually looking for a replacement drummer, although... that person ultimately rejected me."

The thought of Su Shi makes me feel uneasy.

That day, she could clearly sense that Yutenji Wakana had almost accepted her invitation. After all, for such a snobbish person who craved exposure, the conditions she had proposed were really quite good.

But why did she learn from Ai Yin that the other party had refused to come to her band after only a few hours?

According to them, it seems they've found a more suitable band...

It was too suspicious, and the feeling of being inexplicably interrupted and beaten to it by someone else was all too familiar, immediately reminding her of the girl named Nanami Natsuki.

The problem is that her guess was based entirely on prejudice against the other party... without any evidence whatsoever, it was just based on unreliable intuition.

"..."

"I'm sorry, it was my own idea... but I feel that Lixi..."

"Don't say things like that anymore, Su Shi." Toyokawa Shoko lowered her head, looking very conflicted. "Since the invitation wasn't successful, let's just keep things as they are. I didn't really want you to find someone to replace Riki in the first place."

“Although you keep saying it’s not my problem, it’s Lixi’s own problem, I actually know very well… if it weren’t for me, Lixi wouldn’t be facing this problem at all. It’s all because of me that she…”

"Xiao Xiang, stop talking."

"..."

Xiangzi was stunned for a moment before realizing that Xiaodeng and Aiyin in the room were looking at her with curious eyes. Realizing what she should and shouldn't say, she quickly shut her mouth.

However, this posture only aroused Aine's suspicions, or rather... it made her original guess even more certain.

Now she has to find a way to contact Li hope, because perhaps only through Li hope can she find a way to help Xiao Yue.

Although Aine is not quite sure what kind of results she needs to achieve to be considered a help, does she need to get these people to accept Xiaoyue again and kick that stinky blue-haired guy out?

But is such a thing really possible? And would Xiaoyue really be willing to come back?

Aine felt like she was an outsider, excluded person who couldn't speak up and no one was willing to listen to her.

Even after she took the initiative to leave, apart from Deng running over to ask her what she was going to do, the other two people in the room didn't seem to want to chase after her at all.

"Xiaodeng, I...I want to go find that Lixi you guys mentioned."

"Li hope-chan?"

When facing Takamatsu Akari, Aine didn't intend to lie about every word. "Akari, you should go back and continue practicing. I'll also work hard here. I just hope to do something for everyone."

Although she wasn't sure exactly what she was supposed to do.

"Oh."

"Little Lamp really is... haha..."

Seeing that Xiaodeng nodded without asking any further questions, Aiyin felt a sense of relief, because she knew that Xiaodeng was the only person in the band who cared about her thoughts, even though she often found it troublesome to communicate with him.

After leaving Circle alone with her guitar bag, Aine headed towards RING, where she had met Nanami Natsuki that day. Perhaps she wasn't actually looking for Riki, but rather wanted to secretly check on her little apprentice.

When she arrived at the location, she immediately spotted Nanami Natsuki, who was not very tall and was standing behind the bar in a work uniform, talking to another girl.

If she's not mistaken, the other girl should be Shiina Tatsuki, right?

"that……"

"Eh? It's Aine-chan!"

"Hmm? Do you remember me?" Ai Yin originally intended to pretend to be a passing customer to order a cup of coffee, and then slowly get closer to her real-life apprentice.

However, she was somewhat surprised that the lovely Nanami Natsuki still remembered her so well after their last parting.

"What are you saying, Aine-chan... Of course I'd remember a pretty girl like Aine, or rather, I wouldn't remember someone as dazzling as you... Oh dear~"

Chihaya Aine was initially quite pleased with the compliments, but then the other person suddenly let out a gasp, as if someone had stepped on her foot, which made Aine somewhat puzzled.

"Hehe, I'm not as good as you say~"

However, Aine couldn't help but say what she had to say.

"Is that a guitar bag that Ai-chan is carrying? Has your band been formed yet? Is practice over for today?"

“This…” Ai Yin looked at Riki, who was suddenly staring at her with a complicated expression, swallowed, and explained, “Actually… I sneaked out.”

"Huh?"

"Xiaoyue, I'm sorry..."

Why is Aine-chan apologizing to me?

Nanami Natsuki stepped on the restless Riki's foot from below the stage, then asked Aine knowingly, "If it's because of what happened with Suze that day... I don't think there's any need to apologize to me. After all, Suze invited you, not me, and besides, I can't go back there anymore."

"why?"

"Anyone who knew that their former friend would suddenly say those sentimental things in front of everyone, not to get me back into the band, but to make me look foolish in front of everyone when I wasn't prepared, would think that such a friend is no longer trustworthy, right?"

"Huh?!" Aine's pupils contracted sharply. She looked at Riki beside her, as if seeking confirmation, "But... didn't everything go smoothly that day?"

"That's only because I told Xiaoyue about Su Shi's plan in advance." Li Xi, along with the naughty thing in the house, lied. "Su Shi knew that Xiaoyue, who was very sad about the past, had not touched any musical instruments during this period, let alone the piano. So he wanted to use such a ridiculous way to hurt Xiaoyue's already... well, already soft and fragile self-esteem."

Kill her... What on earth is she saying?

Shiina Riki felt that Nanami Natsuki's ability to spout nonsense without any guilt at any time was simply heaven-defying.

It's unclear when exactly, but Heaven, with its eyes wide open, actually came to take away this little devil because of this.

"That's going too far!!"

Chihaya Aine was filled with surprise; she couldn't believe that this was the truth behind the heartwarming performance she had witnessed that day.

So that's how it is... That's not surprising at all. After all, if that's the truth, anyone would feel deceived by a former friend. It's not just about finding a substitute to show off in front of you; this is based on the fact that just a few days ago, they actually tried to hurt Xiaoyue, such a simple and pitiful girl!

How could Nagasaki Motoyo be so wicked!

So angry that she puffed out her cheeks and couldn't speak for a long time, Aine was no longer thinking about her embarrassing situation. All she wanted to do was become an Ultraman and defeat all the nasty little monsters in the world.

For example, Su Shi, who bullies her every day, is someone she must defeat in her eyes.

"Xiaoyue...aren't you angry?"

"Of course I'm angry... but the band's breakup is definitely partly my fault, but I'm sorry I can't tell you the specific reasons."

"Ah...is that so?"

Ai Yin was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, it was true that her relationship with Xiao Yue didn't seem to be that good anymore.

Actually, she really wanted to have a one-on-one chat with Nanami Natsuki. She had a lot to say, but her slightly hesitant nature made her unsure whether she should do it.

Online is online, and offline is offline.

Online, she is Ann, the returned overseas student mentor whom Xiaoyue admires; offline, she is an ordinary JK girl who is far less capable than Xiaoyue in every aspect.

Even in Xiaoyue's eyes, her value seemed to be much higher than Nagasaki Motoyo's evaluation of her.

So... if it were me, I would definitely cherish such a person. Why would anyone want to abandon her, deceive her, or set a trap to harm her?

Thank goodness, thank goodness Nanami Natsuki still has Ritsuki by her side... Eh? Wait a minute.

Could it be that Oblivionis is Lixi? After all, Xiaoyue hasn't mentioned having two close friends, either online or offline, in all this time.

But even if that's true, so what? It just means there's one less person who truly understands Xiaoyue...

"Aine-chan, are you free right now?"

"Huh? I'm free... What's up?"

"Lixi, why don't you help me with my part of the work? I'd like to..."

"You're doing it again."

"Forehead."
