Zongman: Nagasaki Sushi's adopted brother

Bai Ye: Thank you very much, Hailing.

Chu Hua (biting tissue emoji): I didn't check the news for a while, someone else got there first...

Hachiman Kailing: Oh, is Chuhua jealous?

Chu Hua: ....

Masking: It’s great to be young.

After turning off the phone, Bai Ye entered the "Starry Sky".

A dim atmosphere enveloped the surroundings, casting a veil of mystery over everything. Faint light flickered in the corners, barely outlining the vague outlines of objects. A cold wind blew, carrying a sense of loneliness as it swirled through the empty room, emitting a subtle whimper and adding to the stillness and chill of the space.

Suddenly, a chaotic drumbeat erupted without warning, like a huge rock thrown into a silent lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves. The drumbeat had no rhythmic pattern, yet it carried a primitive, wild power.

Then, the slightly aggressive bass suddenly popped out its head like a giant python that had been lurking for a long time. Its low and powerful notes, like the scales of a python, were inserted into the air one by one, bringing an irresistible sense of oppression.

“The store hasn’t opened yet, we’re still in preparation.”

A mature woman with long golden hair came to Bai Ye and said.

"I'm the store manager—Ichichi Hoshika."

"Hello, my name is Bai Ye. Who are those two on the stage?"

Bai Ye pointed to the drummer and bassist playing on the stage.

Ijichi Hoshika: "It's just a temporary performance. If you want to hear a proper performance, you'd better wait until the store opens."

Bai Ye: "It's okay, I like it very much."

Ijichi Hoshika: "Hmm? You like this half-baked performance? Is this your first time at a livehouse?"

Bai Ye: "Can I go on stage?"

Ijichi Hoshika: "Of course I can, but... you can play an instrument? Eh?! Where did you get the keyboard from?!"

Bai Ye rushed onto the stage like a gust of wind, his eyes revealing an indescribable excitement and determination. He quickly took out the keyboard from his bag, his movements skillful and decisive, as if he had already rehearsed this in his mind a thousand times.

Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, he placed the keyboard in a corner of the band without hesitation, then quickly adjusted the equipment. The moment his fingers lightly touched the keyboard, a wonderful aura spread around him.

Although the band was playing at this point, their overall performance wasn't impressive, and could even be described as somewhat bland. Their playing lacked a sense of soulful cohesion, with each member seemingly acting on their own, unable to truly immerse themselves in the ocean of music.

However, Bai Ye's joining was like throwing a huge stone into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples.

His keyboard sounds were like a flash of lightning that pierced the night sky, instantly illuminating the entire stage. The lively notes danced in the air, interweaving with the band's original melody to form a wonderful harmony.

The magician on stage, Bai Ye, appeared. He didn't unleash his full power all at once, but instead adjusted it based on the strength of the players present. Well, actually, he adjusted it downwards.

Bai Ye's arrival instantly enlivened the band's performance. His keyboard work was like a ribbon, deftly connecting the various band members' performances together to create a powerful musical torrent. The originally bland melody became rich and vibrant under his keyboard, each note brimming with vitality, as if endowed with a new soul.

Ichichi Hoshige: "This level, professional level? No, it should be among the top ones? It must be a lie, right?"

As Bai Ye's keyboard playing became more and more passionate, the performance of the entire band gradually reached a high level of tacit understanding.

This performance became no longer ordinary because of Bai Ye's participation.

The song ends, the curtain falls.

Bassist—Yamada Ryo: “It feels great…”

Drummer—Ijichi Nijika: "Wow?! Is this the level I can play?"

"Let me introduce myself, keyboard player—Bai Ye."

"Bass, Yamada Ryo."

"I'm the drummer, Ijichi Nijika, Byakuya-chan, you're amazing!?"

Bai Ye: "Jiang? Sorry, I'm a boy, I should take Jun behind."

Ijichi Hongxia: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you looked so beautiful that I couldn't help but..."

Bai Ye: "...I don't really like your praise. Normally, shouldn't you praise a boy for being handsome?"

Yamada Ryo (likes): "You are my type!"

white night:....

Ijichi Nijika (elbows Yamada Ryo): "Hahahahaha, don't take Ryo's words seriously. But, Byakuya-kun, that's really amazing."

Yamada Ryo: "Indeed, it can be inserted temporarily and it can also improve the performance."

Bai Ye: "I'm very happy to see your performance. I joined in unconsciously."

Hachiman Kailing: "Oh, am I here at the wrong time?"

Bai Ye: "Hailing? When did you come?"

Hachiman Kailing: "Ever since you came to power...Bai Ye hasn't changed, he's always been so chaotic..."

Bai Ye: "Sorry, sorry, but thank you for picking me up."

Hachiman Kailing: "Who told me to live close to you? But I also often perform here. If you want in the future, I can bring you here to perform."

Hachiman Kailing led Bai Ye to greet the other three people in the store, and then prepared to leave.

Ijichi Hongxia (nervous): "Um...Byakuya-kun...do you have a band?"

Bai Ye: "There was one before, but it disbanded not long ago."

Ijichi Hongxia: "Disband? Then..."

Bai Ye (waving as he leaves): "See you next time if we're lucky!"

Ichichi Hongxia: "Well then, see you again if we're lucky."

The door closed and Hailing led Bai Ye away.

Ijichi Hoshika: "People of that caliber won't form a band with you. You'd better give up!"

Ijichi Nijika (angry): "Sister, your words are really annoying. I want to try it myself! Ryo, what do you think?"

Yamada Ryo: "Maybe he looks down on us."

Yamada Ryo hid his trembling hands and muttered to himself.

Hong Xia couldn't sense this at her level. Just now, while playing, it felt like she was being led by him, unconsciously being controlled. This feeling was truly terrifying, yet also incredibly exciting...

Ijichi Nijika: "By the way, Kita hasn't been to rehearsal yet. Is that okay? Our first live?"

Yamada Ryo: ....

Chapter 3 I am Toyokawa Shoko, I am Toyokawa Shoko, I am Toyokawa Shoko

"finally reached."

After several hours of struggle, Bai Ye finally arrived at his new home.

Large flat on the 45th floor.

"Duplex high-rise, overlooking the sea and the river~"

"You can't imagine the suffering of being rich~"

Sitting on the sofa while singing.

He crossed his legs, took out the soda he had just bought at the convenience store, and drank it in one gulp.

Cool~~

It’s a pity that Hailing went back, otherwise we could have drank three bottles together.

"However, I never thought that Cheap Old Deng could find such a good family. It really makes me proud."

Bai Ye opened his phone and clicked on the Line group chat called "A Loving Family".

Su Shi Ma: Bai Yebao, are we there yet?

Bai Ye: We’re here, Mom.

Bai Ye’s father: Sorry, my mom and I have to continue working overtime and may not be back this week.

Bai Ye: Just leave it to me, I will definitely screw it up.

Su Shi’s mother: Bai Yebao is really good at joking. Su Shi will be back soon. Bai Yebao, don’t be afraid of loneliness.

Bai Ye: Mom, love~ (Attached, there is only mom in the world good expression pack)

Bai Ye’s father: What about me?

Bai Ye: Kick the upstairs.jpg

Su Shi Ma: Bai Yebao, so naughty~

Exit the group chat.

Bai Ye: "The rest is to build a good relationship with the new cheap sister."

Bai Ye: "It's so hard to hold a big golden leg, I must hold it tightly."

"Beep", that's the sound of the electronic door of the new house.

A girl with long brown hair walked in, turned her back to Bai Ye, and started changing her shoes.

Bai Ye: "Welcome home, my dear sister."

Suyo (with his back to Lengmo): "My name is Nagasaki Suyo."

Su Shi: "Let me tell you first, I don't want to have a good relationship with you."

Su Shi: "Don't even think of having any other thoughts about me."

Su Shi: "Don't expect anything from me. I won't treat you like family. After all, we are just a reconstituted family."

[Home? What a joke! Suffering is my destiny.]

[I will never acknowledge someone who casually inserts himself into this situation.]

Su Shi changed her shoes and turned around.

The blue-haired "girl" entered Su Shi's sight, and at that moment, her heartbeat accelerated. It was the white moonlight she had always been thinking about.

Her appearance seemed to bring with it a kind of magic that caused ripples in Su Shi's heart.

"Xiao Xiang..." Su Shi widened her eyes. She didn't even dare to blink, for fear that her beautiful dream would be shattered in an instant.

Now, the "Xiangzi" she had been thinking about appeared before her.

No time to explain.

Dive, reach out, and grab.

"It's true, Xiaoxiang..." Su Shi tightly grasped Bai Ye's arm.

"Why did you suddenly come to my house, Xiaoxiang?"

"Sure enough, you're not going to quit the band, are you?"

"Xiaoxiang, are you coming back?"

"Deng hasn't been coming to practice lately either."

"When hardship comes, it brings hardship. The atmosphere among everyone is very low."

Bai Ye interrupted, "Um, what are you talking about?"
