Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

"Of course, no problem." The manager agreed happily. "Hatsuka, Mana, take Kiyokawa Xiang to the lounge. I remember there are a few extra idol costumes there besides towels if Kiyokawa Xiang wants to change clothes."

"Okay." Chu Hua nodded, but did not immediately step forward to get close to Qingchuan Xiang. He had been waiting for so long and there was no need to rush.

I should slowly get closer to Qingchuan Xiang, and then ask him about Xiangzi, Chuhua thought to himself.

"Mana, could you bring some snacks to the lounge?" Chuhua turned to Mana and suggested. Chuhua knew Mana loved donuts, so asking her to bring some donuts to share with Qingchuan Xiang would probably bring Mana and Qingchuan Xiang closer, which would definitely be good for Mana.

Although she is always thinking about Xiangzi, Chuhua also likes this optimistic girl who is in the same group with her. It's just that she is too optimistic and doesn't like to think about things. I guess Mana still regards Qingchuan Xiang as a simple peer and doesn't realize why the agent wants the two of them to take Qingchuan Xiang to the lounge together.

"Eh? Can I really go get some donuts?" As expected, Mana cheered a little when she heard that she could get snacks, and even jumped a little, looking at her agent expectantly.

The agent smiled helplessly: "Go ahead, go ahead. Since we have customers today, I'll let you take a few more. You must work harder to train hard."

"Okay!" Mana got the promise from her agent and immediately ran out of the reception room. When she passed by Qingchuan Xiang, she expressed her gratitude with gratitude, "Thank you, I'll get you two of the biggest ones later!"

"Okay..." Before Qingchuan Xiang finished speaking, Mana had already run out happily. Blinking, Qingchuan Xiang quite liked this kind of cheerful type, because most of them were easy to understand and didn't have any twists and turns.

"Ms. Qingchuan, please follow me."

Qingchuan Xiang followed Chuhua obediently, looking at the back of the idol in front of him. Mana had slipped away too quickly before and didn't have time to catch up, so he began to draw a personality portrait of Chuhua in his mind.

Although we may only meet today, if there is a need to add a new individual to the archive wall, it is okay to prepare in advance.

Blonde hair, purple eyes, a well-maintained figure, a delicate face, and a very pleasant voice. It can be said that as an idol, her appearance is more than just acceptable.

Although he looks cool and handsome, he's actually quite cheerful. Unlike Mana's cheerfulness, the Hatsuka in front of him seems to be the type who cares about other people's feelings.

Before coming here, I searched for videos and news about Sumimi and felt that she was very serious about her idol career. In the performance video, Chuhua's smooth and gorgeous guitar performance left a deep impression on Qingchuan Xiang.

He's caring, responsible, and outgoing, but also gentle. Initially, I'd say he's a pretty approachable person. Qingchuan Xiang made this unsure assessment, then shook his head.

Really, did Xiangzi and the others give me some PTSD? People like them are exceptions. It would be terrible if everyone in this society was so serious.

Qingchuan Xiang patted his chest with lingering fear, and Chuhua, who was walking in front, heard the sound of fabric flapping and thought that Qingchuan Xiang was pulling at the clothes because he felt uncomfortable with the clothes soaked with sweat.

"The lounge is just ahead, we'll be there soon." Chu Hua quickened his pace slightly.

"Hmm? Okay." Qingchuan Xiang quickly realized that Chuhua must have misunderstood, but since there was no problem, he did not explain. Instead, he gained a deeper understanding of Chuhua's attentiveness and thoughtfulness.

"Miss Qingchuan, please sit here for a while. I'll get you a towel."

As an idol's profession often requires singing and dancing, the amount of exercise is quite high, so towels and other items are naturally always prepared in the lounge.

Hanging on the towel rack were his and Mana's towels. Chuhua naturally took down his own, then wet it with hot water in the sink in the lounge. Using a cold towel to wipe sweat would only make it easier to catch a cold.

Wring the towel, but don't wring it out completely. Let the towel retain a little moisture. This will reduce the pain caused by the roughness of the towel when wiping.

These little tricks were summarized by Chuhua when he was helping Mana wipe the sweat off her face while she was busy eating donuts, and now they were accidentally used on another person.

"Come, Miss Qingchuan." "Just call me Xiang."

"Okay, Xiaoxiang." Chuhua agreed happily, wanting to get along well with her. But as expected, Qingchuanxiang and Ms. Shu were both humble.

Chu Hua held the towel, which was still emitting a little warm steam, in his hands and handed it to Qingchuan Xiang. Only then did Chu Hua really observe Qingchuan Xiang.

Although he had seen photos of Qingchuan Xiang when she was in a band on SNS before, and had been shocked by Ms. Qingchuan Shu's beauty more than once, Chuhua was still a little amazed when he saw Qingchuan Xiang this time.

When you get closer, you don't smell the unique smell of sweat after sweating profusely, it's as if Qingchuan Xiang was actually doused with clean water.

When Qingchuan Xiang, who was sitting on the chair, took the towel, he inevitably raised his head, revealing his vulnerable neck to Chu Hua without any defense. The clear sweat like water ran along the smooth curve of his jaw, like a necklace tied around his neck, bringing a certain kind of seductive quality.

But Qingchuan Xiang's clear eyes did not realize how attractive he was at the moment. After all, being wet all over was a normal thing for him.

"Thank you, Chuhua." Qingchuan Xiang took the towel, squeezed the wet and steaming towel in his hand, breathed in comfort, and began to wipe slowly.

What was strange was that as Qingchuan Xiang slowly wiped the sweat off his body, the demonic charm that he had unconsciously exuded at all times gradually weakened.

By the end, Qingchuan Xiang had wiped off the sweat on his face, neck, and collarbone, and he had returned to his normal, eye-catching state.

It was just like a fairy from a storybook that transformed into a human form when it came into contact with water, Chu Hua thought.

Chapter 22: The popular door-opening kill

Qingchuan Xiang slowly wiped the sweat from his face. The feeling of the towel filled with hot steam rubbing against his face was very comfortable, and he could even smell a faint fragrance.

It should be the smell of Chuhua. When Qingchuanxiang followed her before, he could faintly smell a light fragrance. She must be wearing some kind of perfume.

By the way, Mana smells like a very sweet donut.

After wiping the sweat off his face, Qingchuan Xiang was about to lift up his clothes to wipe the sweat off his body, but just when he had lifted up half of the hem of his shirt, his hand suddenly stopped and he looked up at Chuhua.

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient for you to wipe your body? If you want, I can help you wipe it." Chu Hua asked proactively when he saw Qingchuan Xiang stopped, with that eager smile still on his face. He half squatted down and kept his eye level with the sitting Qingchuan Xiang.

"I'm just worried that I'm sweating so much, and it might not be a good idea to just wipe it with your towel." Qingchuan Xiang is very aware of how much water he sweats. Although there are indeed some weird perverts in society who like to smell other people's sweat, a cool idol like Chuhua doesn't seem like that kind of person.

But Chu Hua took the towel from Qingchuan Xiang's hand and helped her wipe her arm, which she had not yet wiped. "Xiao Xiang's sweat doesn't smell like sweat at all. Instead, it's like clean water. So it's totally okay."

As if to prove what he said, Chu Hua wiped it very carefully. Qingchuan Xiang's arm, which was as white as snow, slender and soft, as delicate as a feather, was exposed outside the short sleeves. After Chu Hua's gentle touch, he felt a trace of comfort.

Even the palms, backs of the hands, and the spaces between the fingers were meticulously taken care of. When wiping the fingers, Chu Hua intentionally or unintentionally stroked Qingchuan Xiang's fingertips with his own hand.

"Although it has softened a little now, I can still feel the calluses on Xiaoxiang's fingers." Chuhua hid his little thoughts in natural movements. When he felt the calluses on Qingchuanxiang's fingertips that were obviously caused by pressing the strings, he calmly began to guide the topic in the direction he wanted.

"Could it be that Xiaoxiang has practiced instruments like guitar before?"

Qingchuan Xiang didn't think there was anything wrong with this question, so he let Chuhua wipe his fingers. "Well, I was in a band before, and played rhythm guitar for a while."

Unexpectedly, Qingchuan Xiang directly told Chuhua about the band. Chuhua suppressed his excitement and said, "Band, it feels really good. Is Xiaoxiang having fun in that band now?"

"I guess I'm happy." Qingchuan Xiang thought back to the time when CRYCHIC was still around. They went to KTV together, looked at the lights and wrote the lyrics for that song that was said to be able to shout out the heart. He also tried to understand the lyrics and tried to compose music for it with Xiangzi...

And even though I still couldn't find the lyrics of that song called "Spring Shadow" that would allow me to understand the emotions of being human, when I finally stood on the stage, feeling the music pounding against my eardrums, the lead singer's desperate shouts, and everyone's excited expressions...

Even I, who was caught in the whirlpool of emotions that was guided by music and released by everyone, was touched by it.

“But the band has disbanded now.”

"Has it disbanded?" Chu Hua was a little surprised. After all, when he saw the photo of the band members on SNS, everyone, including Xiangzi, looked so happy. Could it be that they have disbanded now?

"Yeah. It's a shame, after all, it was a friendly relationship, but it's over now."

"Xiao Xiang doesn't sound very sad. Does that mean she's still in touch with everyone in the band?" Chu Hua asked tentatively. Chu Hua was also a little worried that because of the band's disbandment, Qingchuan Xiang actually had no contact with Xiangzi anymore. In that case, the relationship she was hoping for would be in vain.

"Hmm..." Qingchuan Xiang rarely showed a somewhat tangled and headache expression. After the disbandment, he did contact other members of the band, but this time the disbandment of the band was like a fuse, which ignited all the other members of the band at once. No one could communicate well during this period of time, which was also the reason why he felt a little tired these days.

After seeing Qingchuan Xiang's conflicted expression, Chuhua opened his mouth hesitantly, but in the end did not ask any further.

Although I really want to know Xiangzi's current situation as soon as possible, Xiaoxiang seems to be worried about the disbanding of the band, so I'd better ask about Xiangzi next time.

While the two were talking, Qingchuan Xiang had already wiped his hands clean, but it was obvious that there was still a lot of sweat on some not-so-convenient places.

"I'll do the rest myself, Sister Chuhua." Qingchuan Xiang reached out to take the towel back, but pulled it but couldn't budge.

"Wait, why are you suddenly calling me sister?" Chu Hua was a little flustered, and she subconsciously used a little strength to pinch the towel. A slightly unnoticeable blush appeared on her face, but she still managed to maintain her facial expression unchanged.

"Well... because I feel that Sister Chuhua is taller than me, and she is very considerate, giving people a very mature feeling." Qingchuan Xiang tilted her head. This was indeed what she thought. She did not expect Chuhua to react so strongly to this title.

"Isn't that okay to call it that?"

"If Xiaoxiang wants to call me that, of course I'm happy to do so." Chu Hua, who has been working in the entertainment industry for some time, first learned good emotional management and quickly calmed himself down.

The reason why Chuhua cares so much about the title "sister" is actually because when she was a child and was on the island in her hometown, Xiangzi called her that.

After growing up, no one else called Chuhua that anymore. Mana would call her by her name in a very intimate way. And Xiangzi seemed to feel uncomfortable calling Chuhua "sister" after growing up. Even in text messages, he would just call himself Chuhua. For a moment, Chuhua recalled the past time.

"Wait a moment, I'll go wash the towel again."

Chu Hua took the towel that was gradually soaked with Qingchuan Xiang's sweat and could no longer absorb water, and walked back to the sink. He wrung it hard and actually managed to squeeze out a stream of water.

Is this really sweat? Chu Hua couldn't believe it. It was colorless and odorless. Could it be that Qingchuan Xiang was really a girl made of water?

After washing the towel with hot water again, Chu Hua turned around and saw that Qingchuan Xiang had taken off her shirt, leaving only a pure white bra on her upper body that wrapped around her slightly undulating curves. Apart from that, her belly without any fat, her neat waistline, and her delicate collarbone were all displayed in front of Chu Hua without reservation.

"Xiao Xiang, why did you take off your clothes suddenly?" Chu Hua immediately turned his head away and did not look in the direction of Qingchuan Xiang.

"Because it's convenient to wipe the sweat?" Qingchuan Xiang looked at Chuhua's reaction and realized that he seemed a little conservative about taking off his clothes. "Hasn't Chuhua changed clothes in the locker room during physical education class at school?"

He picked up the wet shirt again and prepared to put it back on to cover himself.

"It's okay, I was just making a fuss out of nothing." Chu Hua slowly turned around and stopped Qingchuan Xiang from putting on his wet clothes again.

After all, Qingchuan Xiang is different from me who likes girls. I think since we are all girls, it doesn't matter. Maybe Qingchuan Xiang doesn't even know that there is such a thing as homosexuality.

Chu Hua kept looking straight into Qingchuan Xiang's eyes, not looking anywhere else - at this time Qingchuan Xiang's body was still wet, just like her face before, it had a strange charm when it came into contact with water.

"Thank you, Sister Chuhua." Qingchuan Xiang was about to take the towel when the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open, and immediately afterwards a very lively voice came out: "Chuhua, Xiaoxiang! I brought donuts, let's eat together..."

As soon as Mana opened the door, she saw Kiyokawa Shoka, who was only wearing a bra, and reached out to Kiyokawa Shoka. Coincidentally, the towel was covering her eyes and she didn't see it.

"Sorry for interrupting!"

Chapter 23 Young Mother (?)

Ah, is this the misunderstanding plot that is so popular in light novels?

Qingchuan Xiang put himself in the perspective of Mana standing at the door, and imagined the layout of the lounge in his mind. He immediately knew that Mana probably didn't see the towel in Chuhua's hand from that position, and reached out to the girl who took off her shirt.

When I saw my long-time, reliable, and mature partner, in the lounge we usually shared, actually reaching out to a strange girl whom I had just met for less than a few minutes...

It should really be this surprising, right?

Qingchuan Xiang looked at Mana who was frantically waving donuts in the air, and noticed that she seemed to be retreating and could escape at any time.

While this would have been interesting, this incident was likely my fault. It seemed I had confused the lounge with the school's locker room; changing clothes here wasn't exactly normal.

It is best to avoid causing trouble to others because of your own problems. This is a principle that Qingchuan Xiang has been practicing since he realized that he is different from others.

Qingchuan Xiang was about to call Mana and explain the reason to her, but Chuhua on the side spoke first.

"Mana, calm down. Your agent has told you more than once that you need to be more steady."

While speaking, Chuhua raised the hand holding the towel and waved it in the air to show it to Mana. The gentle smile on his face also served to comfort Mana.

"So that's how it is. Haha, I knew Chuhua wasn't that kind of person." Mana smiled awkwardly, her face still a little hot from the shock, and walked in with a box of donuts in her hand.

"Really? What kind of image do you have of me?"

The seemingly complaining words were said by Chu Hua in a joking tone, which dispelled the last bit of awkwardness in the air and made it cheerful again.

Qingchuan Xiang watched the whole process silently. Chuhua was not panicked by this sudden little accident. Instead, he was quite calm and immediately understood the current situation. He quickly coaxed Mana, who was at a loss like a lost rabbit, and adjusted the atmosphere back to the normal state.

Is this the emotional management ability of a rising star who is attracting much attention in the entertainment industry? So amazing.

Mana skipped and put the donut box on the table beside her, but she was actually a little shy and curious, trying to secretly observe the girl of the same age who was also hailed as a talented woman out of the corner of her eye.

Little did he know that the action he thought was very secretive was seen by the other two people at the same time from the beginning.

Chuhua quickly spread out the towel in his hand and covered Qingchuan Xiang with it like a scarf, covering most of his upper body. Then he bent his fingers and tapped Mana's forehead with his hard knuckles lightly.

"Ahh——" A cute cry came from Mana's mouth.

"Mana, this is very rude. Xiaoxiang is a guest." Chuhua's tone became serious as he lectured Mana who was covering her forehead with her hands.

In Chuhua's own opinion, although it was Qingchuan Xiang who took off her shirt, this kind of peeking behavior is wrong and will greatly damage her image. It is a disqualifying behavior for an idol!

"I'm sorry, Xiaoxiang..." Mana, who was being lectured, apologized in a stammering voice, pointing her index fingers at each other nervously.

"It's okay, it's my own problem." Qingchuan Xiang waved his hand, and this action caused the towel to fall off, but this time Qingchuan Xiang took the initiative to grab the towel and cover his upper body well.

"I didn't pay attention to your feelings. I thought we were all girls and took off our clothes without permission. Now that I think about it, there must be other people coming into the lounge frequently. I was inconsiderate."

Kiyokawa Xiang took the blame on himself without hesitation. After all, it was indeed his fault that caused everything, and there was no need for Mana to apologize for it.

Then Qingchuan Xiang looked up at Mana, who was embarrassed after being apologized and said, "By the way, Mana, did you want to see my body just now?"

"Huh?! Eh?"

"I don't really mind being watched, it's not like I'm really naked. When I was in junior high, we were often curious about each other's bodies in the locker room, especially the girls in the class who were more developed." Qingchuan Xiang didn't seem to care. In her experience, this level of frankness between girls was actually quite common. She even laughed when she talked about "well-developed" and made a joke about her own body.

"But unfortunately, my figure isn't very attractive. Even if Mana wanted to see it, there's nothing good to see."

After hearing this, even Chu Hua felt inexplicably convinced. What was originally a very beautiful event, after Qingchuan Xiang's rational explanation, immediately felt that it was not a big deal.

The bra that Qingchuan Xiang was wearing was a bit like a sports bra. It was simple in style and solid in color. It could be regarded as a small vest without any rosy colors.

"So, do you want to see it?" Qingchuan Xiang tilted his head, waiting for the other two's answer.

No, no, no, this statement is really too weird!

Chu Hua suddenly came back to his senses and shook his head wildly in his heart. What's wrong with this kid? He is too defenseless.

Chu Hua subconsciously used the tone she usually used to teach Mana, "Xiao Xiang, listen carefully. Even though we're all girls, you can't say things like that casually. It's true that changing clothes together is normal in some situations, but most of the time, such frankness is unnecessary. What's more, your proactive remarks just now will cause misunderstandings."

After Chuhua finished speaking, Mana and Qingchuan Xiang tacitly did not respond. They stared at Chuhua in silence, deliberately frowning their eyebrows to pretend to be serious while he was preaching.

"Chuhua, so you are this type of mother." This was Qingchuan Xiang's cry of sudden enlightenment.
