At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

After that fleeting glimpse, the girl couldn't bear to look any longer.

I lost all interest in practicing singing.

[They dare to act like this in front of me; I can't imagine what they'd do when I'm not around.]

[It's surprising that Yuan Xiao, who seems so easy to bully on the surface, is actually so capable behind the scenes. Cheche doesn't push you away at all.]

She realized the seriousness of the problem.

She tiptoed to the half-open bedroom door and intensively gathered information about the relationship between the two.

"Master, I'm hungry."

"eat."

Sure enough, as Yuan Xiao played the piano, all she had to do was say she was hungry, and Su Che would take the largest cucumber-flavored Les Cake from the open bag of potato chips and feed it to her without her having to wash her hands after taking the snacks.

The girl's eyes widened at the sight, and she felt like she was about to get a conjunctivitis attack.

【No way, we're not even this close when I practice singing at home!】

She forgot that during meals, she would often fork up a piece of luncheon meat and feed it to him, only the roles were reversed.

"How did I play this part? Have I improved?"

The sound of intimate interaction came from ahead once again.

"Very good, you have no problem going on stage. You just need to be calm and steady on stage."

"Then... how can I guarantee I won't be nervous? There are people in the audience, and it's a high-class concert hall. Maybe the audience members are all knowledgeable... that would make me even more scared!"

Yuan Xiao lacked confidence in her full combo.

"You're like this."

Su Che thought for a moment and offered a solution:

"When you're nervous, just look at me. I'll give you a look, and if you feel like you've forgotten something or can't play a part, signal to me in advance. Then you can rest on the next section, and I'll play your part. That way, you won't have any problems."

"!! Master, you're so kind!! Give me a kiss!"

"..."

The sky has fallen.

An Qing became increasingly withdrawn as she listened.

So the two of them have already gone this far, while he's just foolishly practicing singing alone at home, without making any progress.

She could practice the piano under his watchful eye, and when she encountered setbacks, she could seek his help, which he was always willing to provide.

When I practiced singing, no one guided me. I could only silently imitate Miss Flower Shop, but I still couldn't grasp the essence and couldn't develop my own style, so I was criticized.

Even I... I didn't get any reward.

An Qing pursed her lips, her sense of grievance growing stronger.

"That's right, he clearly promised me that we could take things further tonight, but he used the fact that we stayed at Yuan Xiao's house together to erase the reward. That won't do."

The "Bad Water Technique" was still too powerful. If An Qing hadn't learned "Qingyu" and "The Way of the Spirit" to counter it, she wouldn't have even realized that her reward had been swallowed by Su Che ten days later.

Just like a vending machine that doesn't dispense drinks, it directly swallows the coins.

"If that's the case..."

"Then let's use Yuan Xiao's place."

"Didn't she want to sleep when she got tired of practicing?"

"Given her intensity and ability to stay up all night, she'll definitely be the first to collapse."

"In a situation like this, whoever faints first is the loser. Hmph... that kid definitely has no experience."

An Qing smiled.

My ability to stay up all night is Max, at level 10.

After all, following Su Che to various places and being a night watchman until 3 a.m. was routine for him.

Going home when the sky is blue is just another ordinary day.

Tonight, I'll show Yuan Xiao what I'm made of.

What does it mean to be "I'm at your house, and you're so hungry you're crying and begging for your mom"?

"Tonight, Cheche will definitely be sleeping facing me. Just you wait."

For a time,

The confident young woman made the wrong judgment.

……

……

Chapter 116 No sleep tonight

Regarding positioning.

The members of "Seven Colors" each have different goals for themselves within the team.

Because their initial skill levels were different, no one would compare themselves to Yu tide; instead, they would usually find someone of similar skill level and secretly compete with them.

An Qing and Yuan Xiao started their training around the same time and were very similar in strength.

Gu Zhi was earlier, and while she was indifferent to worldly affairs, she was above the two women.

The small is quite subtle.

She is very strong, but she rarely shows her true strength to outsiders. Su Che once guessed that...

She may have set her sights on Yu tide.

"In a mature team, everyone forms a stable structure similar to a pentagon or a hexagram, referring to each other, making progress together, and then walking together to the end of their careers."

This is recorded in "The Great Magic of Bad Water: Band Edition"

Although I don't know why the dating guide includes a whole section on band relationships,

However, for Su Che, this was like adding wings to a tiger, benefiting him greatly each time.

Time flies by.

From eight to ten o'clock, the two women continued their "skills" competition without stopping, entering a virtuous cycle.

An Qing was determined to amaze the audience with her vocals, and at least not be inferior to Yuan Xiao, who was on a winning streak.

Under Su Che's tutelage, Yuan Xiao activated his "destiny mode," continuing even as his fingers bled, determined to rely on muscle memory to lay a solid foundation for the live performance.

Su Che was shocked by these words, feeling that the child was being a bit extreme.

But he won't stop him.

After all, without doing this, they couldn't compete with Miya.

Come to think of it, I practiced the piano like this when I was young.

[It seems not only me, but my mother is too.]

According to the mother, "that person"... had an even more extreme personality.

What kind of distorted and twisted training journey did "he" go through to reach his current position in the music field? This was something that Su Che was very curious and interested in.

If given the chance, I would like to follow the path he took to find some clues.

I asked Lao Yang before, and he only said that "he" was elusive and rarely seen...

He can contact you, but when you contact him, it often goes unanswered.

This one-way personality is like a ghost, which Su Che finds extremely impolite.

"He seems to have cut off unnecessary social interactions, maximizing the amount of free time he can control."

But where has the time gone?

Cultivation? Or making money?

I asked my mother,

The mother simply shook her head and uttered two words—

"Pay back the debt."

...

...

Su Che looked at An Qing after her hard work.

She glanced again at Yuan Xiao, who was still working tirelessly.

It's twelve o'clock.

"Okay, I'll play it 10 more times and then I'll rest! Ah Che, you guys go to sleep first! My internal recording has no sound!"

"..."

The child is so engrossed in practicing the piano that they've even forgotten about something as important as sleeping together.

Seeing the little bird's earnest expression and its eyes fixed solely on Fender, An Qing hesitated before asking:

"May I use your bathroom? I'd like to take a shower."

"Sure, we have new towels and stuff, feel free to use them."

While practicing the piano, Yuan Xiao seemed to have no intention of arguing with anyone. The two women, unusually, spoke their first normal words since parting ways.

Su Che felt gratified and couldn't help but give the child an approving look.

The child didn't notice the praise and continued to struggle with his hands, his little face scrunched up, seemingly extremely dissatisfied with his finger dexterity.

"If only I had started learning 10 years earlier, why didn't I play the piano before? I'm so angry."

“…Yuan Xiao, 10 years ago you were just a little kid.”

"But Master, didn't you start practicing the piano 10 years ago? You told me that you started when you were little!"
