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

Yuan Xiao dared not disobey; after all, speaking ill of Jiang Nai would do her no harm.

In times like these, the two sisters always stand together against outsiders.

"Let's go inside and take a look at the piano."

Su Che led the two women deeper into the area.

Upon entering the living room, the first thing you see is that stunningly beautiful white AZ brand phone standing prominently on the main seat of the sofa.

She swayed her body like a new mistress of the house.

"hiss……"

"How beautiful this instrument is."

Su Che praised him repeatedly and quickly walked over.

As he drew closer to the artifact, its perfect color and amazing texture were revealed layer by layer before his eyes.

"Zhi, can I hug you?"

"of course can."

Gu Zhixin thought to herself, "You can carry people without any problem, let alone carry a zither?"

But on the surface, she maintained a calm and indifferent expression, showing no sign of distress.

Su Che was able to experience the touch of the divine artifact up close.

"Smooth skin, perfect figure, very white, very heavy, truly a fine instrument."

He raised his hand, turned the speaker knob, and murmured, "Let's listen to her voice for now."

He took out a wet wipe to clean his hands, sat up straight, and began to help Gu Zhi with the sound test with great ceremony.

The booming low frequencies burst forth from the speaker, full and rich, with excellent detail.

With the pickups turned up to the maximum, the sound quality is as amazing as the piano's appearance, perfectly matching its price.

"Very good, very good. With this, the next performance will be even better."

Su Che nodded repeatedly.

Previously in the theater, Gu Zhi used her own GU, which was also very nice-looking, but it paled in comparison to the big AZ, and had a bit of a poor imitation feel to it.

Nowadays, a good instrument is paired with a good woman. With Gu Zhi's figure and image, she will be an eye-catching presence no matter which stage she steps onto.

"Come on my back, let me take a look."

He made reasonable demands.

"Look at me?"

"Ah."

"Well."

Gu Zhi readily agreed, walked over, and took the large AZ that he had finished adjusting.

The moment Su Che slung the zither over his shoulder, his vision blurred.

It's a bit dazzling.

Today, Gu Zhi is wearing a relatively casual, open-chested nightgown.

Since she had no plans to go out and it was already the height of summer, she gradually changed her indoor attire to cool down her overheated body.

The nightgown was off-white with two straps at the top, revealing her shoulders and neck, a striking white.

The waist and abdomen are cinched, with a slender waist and full hips, and the length only reaches the top of the thighs.

The most outrageous thing is that the top button has already burst open due to the tension.

The purple lace ribbon on the side of her lowest leg was also automatically untied by her eye-catching manga-style legs.

With the addition of the large AZ decorations, Gu Zhi's allure has reached its peak.

Su Che had no doubt that if Yuan Xiao hadn't interfered and prevented her from using her skills, she would have come prepared today.

"Brother Che, your eyes are practically popping out!"

"!"

"How is it? Is it alright?"

"Absolutely..."

"If you haven't seen enough, I'll take you inside to see more after Yuan Xiao leaves."

Gu Zhi smiled faintly, exuding a myriad of charms and a surging tide of emotion.

Yuan Xiao, standing to one side, glared angrily at the pretty woman and shouted:

"I'm not leaving! I'll leave whenever A-Che leaves! Humph, if he doesn't leave, I'm not leaving first! Don't even think about getting rid of me!"

The child is getting smarter and smarter, and even if she stays here, Aunt Gu won't kick her out.

After all, she was the family's cash cow. Even if the child's father went bankrupt, he was still a big fish in a small pond and could easily support the family.

"You two should be quiet and not fight."

This was the first time Su Che had ever seen the two women bickering in front of him.

During the rehearsal, because Senior Yu and her group were there, both sides were very restrained and did not engage in any domestic verbal abuse.

Nowadays, when it comes to personal gain, one can't help but fight for it, so the superficial sisterhood naturally has no more worries.

“We’re already very close, A-Che. You have no idea how much my sister bullies me when you’re not around.”

The child pouted and walked pitifully to him, then plopped down on his lap.

"........."

Su Che was at a loss, half-holding the stray cat, unsure whether to push it away or play with it; he was stuck on this dilemma.

Gu Zhi never tolerated illness; she put down her bass and gripped it tightly with both hands like pincers.

He strode over and tried to take the child off him.

If this isn't stopped, the two sisters will soon be fighting, neither willing to give in.

Left with no other choice, Su Che could only step between the two of them, clearing his throat and saying:

"In this way, everything has a first-come, first-served order, and rules and regulations."

"You all shouldn't argue. I've already come all this way, so I can't just leave now."

"Yuan Xiao, wait for me to help her set up the instrument, then I'll play with you for a while, okay?"

Su Che nodded her little head seriously, coaxing her like a parent to a child.

"Play! Okay! How do we play!"

Yuan Xiao immediately stopped making a fuss; for her, having candy was better than anything else.

"Play however you want, we'll discuss that later."

"Good good!"

She was delighted and sat down to one side.

“Zhi, what you said… Come on, let’s go inside and talk.”

Seeing her meaningful expression, he knew that if he didn't help her resolve the lingering issues, things might not end well today.

Gu Zhi nodded in satisfaction after hearing this.

"It seems that Brother Che's forgetfulness is not as bad as I thought. I misunderstood you, didn't I?"

"Hahaha..."

He chuckled awkwardly a few times, then turned back to Yuan Xiao and instructed, "Wait for me obediently."

"Good~"

This concludes the discussion on how the conflict between the two sisters has been completely resolved.

They completely ignored the possibility that the two sisters were deliberately arguing and trying to get a share of the spoils.

-

A snapping sound came from behind.

Gu Zhi locked the door.

In the familiar dark room, the thick curtains, as always, blocked out the light.

The time has come to pay back the promises we made.

"Lie down, Brother Che."

Gu Zhi smiled and took his arm, then, in the pitch-black darkness, skillfully pushed him toward the bed.

"Um……"

The exchange of body temperature is when people feel most at ease.

Gu Zhi was fascinated by this kind of physiological communication.

More than anything else, only physical intimacy can convey the thoughts in one's heart.

"Xiaoxiao said you're under a lot of pressure. What's wrong? Is it pressure from the band?"

Nestled in the fragrant bed, she whispered in his ear.

"There are multiple reasons."

Su Che cleared his mind and began to think quietly.

"Sometimes what I fear most is losing my goal. Once a person loses their goal, they lose the motivation to move forward."

At that point, you'll become a walking corpse, unable to be yourself anymore.

"But if the goal is too demanding, and you can't see the summit when you look up, it can actually breed anxiety and pressure, and lead to another extreme."

Many times, people around me have told me that I set my expectations too high.

But I still want to say, if you start by thinking you can't do anything, and don't even have the courage to think about it, how can you possibly live a good life?
