Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

"Hello, are you Qingchuan Xiang's sister?"

"Huh?" Qing Chuanyu, who had been watching the few people coming and going in the store, didn't expect that there was something else going on. He looked at Chu Hua who had taken off his disguise and recognized this popular idol at a glance, "Are you Triangle Chu Hua?"

"Yes." Chu Hua said calmly. Hai Ling and Li Xi also stopped subconsciously.

"I was wondering why so many people came to the bookstore today who didn't come to read books. I remember Xiaoxiang should be cooperating with you now, right? Are you here to see her?"

"Besides wanting to find Xiaoxiang, I actually want to ask my sister if she has met someone."

She could actually call out "sister" so naturally. Li Xi, who had always had some problems with his sister, stood aside and looked at Chu Hua with eyes full of disbelief.

Qing Chuanyu felt a little strange being called sister. She scratched her head and said nothing more: "Tell me, who do you want to ask?"

Chu Hua described Xiangzi's physical characteristics one by one. Qing Chuanyu, who had no idea about the stories behind these girls, blurted out without any hesitation: "Are you looking for Xiao Xiangzi?"

"!"

Chu Hua did not expect that he would ask Qing Chuanyu directly. When he was about to ask more, Yu said:

"Just ask Xiaoxiang directly. She should be able to tell you in more detail. I'm not very clear about your situation either."

As he said this, he pointed to the door on the side.

"That door is closer, we can go that way."

Since the shop owner was so kind as to point out a shortcut, the three of them naturally wouldn't refuse.

When the three of them were together, Li Xi, who was the most impatient, was walking in front, followed by Hai Ling and Chu Hua at the end. Now, when they turned around and walked, the order was exactly reversed.

Chu Hua opened the door expectantly, and saw a low-key decor, a wine cabinet filled with all kinds of drinks, a bar converted from a water tank, and...

Holding on to Qingchuan Xiang, Xiangzi's legs seemed a little weak and he could barely stand up, trembling. He was wearing some cheap clothes and an apron that seemed to be his work uniform in the bookstore. The apron was stained with a lot of smoke and dust, and he looked disheveled.

"Why are we stuck here?"

The two people behind saw Chu Hua push open the door and froze as if petrified. They looked to the left and right, and then froze as well.

The five people looked at each other, never having thought that such a meeting would happen.

Chapter 191 I like her

As we all know, live streaming has always had a certain delay, which is often just a few seconds, and the host of the live streaming room can also decide how long the delay is.

Out of caution, Miao Meng set the delay a little longer, a full minute.

This minute's delay created a dramatic close encounter. When the live broadcast ended, Miao Meng and Su Shi left VA-11 and walked into the library, just as Li Xi and the other two were about to get up.

Several people exchanged positions among the bookshelves where it was difficult to see other places, without noticing each other's existence.

By the way, with the kind help of Qingchuan Yu, the three of them broke into the two stores from the back door beyond the expectations of Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi, and then directly ran into Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi's "tryst".

Qingchuan Xiang was fine, though a little surprised that after Su Shi, these three had now come running over, and that they had even broken in through the back door, catching them off guard. However, he didn't panic, instead immediately guessing that his sister must have let them in unintentionally.

Xiangzi's expression could not be so calm.

Under the lights of the shop, time seemed to stand still. This usually haughty young lady was now dressed in a simple work uniform, the collar of her shirt stained with barely noticeable dust. Her hair was disheveled and plastered to her forehead, and beads of sweat trickled down her cheeks. She looked a world away from her usual meticulously dressed and elegant self.

A trace of surprise flashed across Xiangzi's eyes, which was then replaced by deep embarrassment. Her cheeks flushed slightly with embarrassment, and her heart was beating wildly in her chest. Every beat seemed to remind her of this sudden "exposure". She couldn't say anything, and facing Chuhua, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she couldn't even say hello.

Even Li Xi didn't dare to speak at this time, and the awkward atmosphere filled the place.

"What a coincidence." Qingchuan Xiang finally spoke first, welcoming the three people into the store, and then quickly closed the back door. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Xiang also winked at Hailing, whom she thought was the most reliable among the people here, signaling her to take over and help out.

Hai Ling understood and cooperated: "Li Xi and I were asked by Miss Lin Linzi to come to you to learn from you."

As she spoke, Hailing pretended to look around, "It does look a bit more stylish than RiNG's coffee shop. It looks a lot more upscale."

When someone starts talking, you can try to quickly move on from the awkward situation.

But Chuhua came here for Xiangzi, but when she really saw him, she regretted it. She was too eager to see Xiangzi and acted impulsively. In this situation, it became difficult for her to greet Xiangzi properly. She didn't even dare to reveal her true purpose.

"I...have some work matters and wanted to come and talk to Xiaoxiang."

Work matters?

Everyone present, whether it was Li Xi Hailing who was in the same class as Chu Hua, or Xiangzi who had received text messages from Chu Hua who had just debuted, knew what Chu Hua's current occupation was. Did they have any work matters that they needed to contact Qingchuan Xiang?

Qingchuan Xiang had already realized from Chuhua's unnatural pauses and the frowning look on her face that her purpose in coming was definitely not for him, but most likely for Xiangzi. However, because of this bad encounter, she did not dare to say it directly and asked for help from him.

You have to know that when Chu Hua and Xiang first met, it was a perfect disguise that even Xiang couldn't see any flaws in. There was no reason why it would be exposed so quickly.

"Well, my mom collaborated with the group Chuhua was in, and she sold me to them."

Qingchuan Xiang joked, trying to further ease the atmosphere.

But at this time, Qingchuan Xiang saw that there was another person present who looked a little strange, Li Xi.

From the beginning, she had been looking at Xiangzi with a look of disbelief. Although Qingchuan Xiang couldn't tell the emotion in Lixi's eyes, she understood the inferiority he felt towards Xiangzi. Seeing someone who was once unattainable to her suddenly appear in front of her in such a miserable state, he would naturally be very surprised.

Moreover, Li Xi would most likely guess that Xiangzi had encountered some changes. If this led her to think about the reason why Xiangzi left the band, it would certainly be a good thing to clear up the misunderstanding. However, given Li Xi's personality, she might be very straightforward and say something like "If there was a problem, why didn't you tell them in the first place? Maybe everyone in the band could help Xiangzi"...

There is no way around a conflict between Lixi and Xiangzi.

So almost at the moment when Li Xi opened his mouth, Qingchuan Xiang immediately made a decision and said:

"Since Li Xi is here to help Miss Rin Rinko, let's get started now."

Then he looked at Xiangzi and Chuhua again, "Chuhua told me that you two knew each other before, right? You can go to the staff room in the back, where you can chat quietly. Is that okay, Xiangzi?"

"Okay." Xiangzi sighed and took the lead to walk into the staff room. Chuhua hurriedly followed, and did not forget to turn around and give Qingchuan Xiang a look of gratitude.

As soon as the two left, Li Xi immediately asked Qing Chuan Xiang in a surprisingly serious tone:

"What on earth happened to Xiangzi?"

"Some bigger troubles."

What kind of trouble could Xiangzi encounter that she couldn't solve? Li Xi, who had always had an inexplicable trust in Xiangzi, subconsciously wanted to ask this question, but she also trusted Qingchuan Xiang very much.

"Xiangzi is also a human being. There are always things that are beyond her ability."

After hearing this, Lixi withdrew his gaze from the direction where Xiangzi was walking, lowered his head, and didn't know what he was thinking.

------

"Long time no see, Chuhua."

In the staff room, Xiangzi spoke first, making up for his earlier rudeness of not greeting Chuhua.

"It's surprising that our next meeting would be so informal."

"It doesn't matter." Chu Hua once again showed that warm smile that made everyone who saw it feel more optimistic. "I'm very happy to see Xiangzi."

"Really..." Xiangzi couldn't help but smile. This childhood sweetheart, whom he had known since childhood but hadn't spent much time with, did make Xiangzi feel a little more relaxed.

"I'm also surprised that Chuhua would come to Xiaoxiang's place. When did you two meet? Xiang never told me about these things."

"Actually..." Chuhua told Xiangzi about her childhood acquaintance with Qingchuan Xiang. Xiangzi didn't expect that there would be such a coincidence.

"She is really an incredible person." Xiangzi was also quite amazed when he heard Chuhua's description of the image of Xiao Xiaoxiang who was extremely cold in the past.

Chu Hua opened her mouth, but finally couldn't help asking, "So, what's the relationship between Xiangzi and Xiaoxiang?"

After hearing this question, Xiangzi looked at his uniform and recalled every time Qingchuan Xiang had helped him, and every time he had accidentally revealed his beautiful gestures...

"Xiang is a very important person to me..." Xiangzi said calmly and without hesitation, "I like her."

Chapter 192 Is it time for me to come?

"Eh?"

Hearing Xiangzi's straightforward words without any ambiguity, it can be said that Chuhua's previous vague suspicions were completely confirmed, and his thoughts fell into a little confusion for a moment.

Xiangzi likes Xiaoxiang, but...what about Xiaoxiang? Does Xiaoxiang like Xiangzi too? Have they already confirmed their relationship?

When I thought about some of the bad guesses that popped up in my mind while watching the live broadcast, they suddenly seemed more likely.

Are you really not secretly having a tryst under the table while the live broadcast is going on?

Of course, this question couldn't be asked directly. Chu Hua, with a hint of bitterness and ambivalence, tried to keep his expression unchanged as he asked Xiangzi:

"Does Xiaoxiang know that Xiangzi likes her?"

"Well." Xiangzi also showed some shyness when he said this, and recalled some things, "I confessed to her myself."

Then he added: "Once when I was resting at her house."

Chuhua's eyes suddenly widened, his pupils filled with shock. Looking at Xiangzi, he felt as if the sounds of the world had suddenly faded away and become blurred.

Has it reached the point where you can go to each other's house to rest and sleep?

It was obvious that I was the first to encounter Xiangzi or Qingchuan Xiang, but now I feel like I have become the third person outside the situation...

"Then...bless you."

Chu Hua used up all his life's knowledge of his idol career just to show a smile that looked as sincere as possible with good wishes.

I have to say that this smile is indeed quite perfect, but it feels more like a sense of persecution than a blessing, which reminds people of countless ancestors, Mahiru, Kusagami Tobi, Saeki... all of them are vivid in my mind.

They are all elegant beings who can be called "ladies" (sigh).

"Actually, Xiaoxiang didn't agree."

Xiangzi, who was blessed by Chuhua, not only did not feel happy, but instead smiled bitterly.

Chu Hua was stunned for a moment, not expecting this result. Although he had some small thoughts in his mind, he also thought that if Xiao Xiang and Xiang Zi were together, they would be a real match.

In Chuhua's eyes, both Xiangzi and Qingchuan Xiang were perfect, desirable objects that could never be rejected. Therefore, he never considered that there was a possibility of rejection.

“But I wasn’t rejected.”

Xiangzi put away his bitter smile and said something lightly, the blush on his face still not fading.

Chu Hua was even more confused. Listening to these words, didn't this completely sound like a situation where the scumbag girl didn't respond and was being kept hanging around as a backup? And looking at Xiangzi's expression, it was as if she was a young lady in seclusion, naive and fooled by sweet talk.

Be it the bad girl Xiaoxiang or the naive Xiangzi, they are completely inconsistent with the image in Chuhua's mind!

Chu Hua seemed to have suddenly found an excuse, bah, and regained her motivation. She wanted to expose Xiao Xiang's "scam" and rescue Xiangzi from the evil water spirit that seemed to have the ability to charm others!

Then Xiaoxiang will be punished and warned, so that she can reform herself and join her and Xiangzi's band to cheer for the band together!

"Wait, Chuhua, what are you thinking about?"

Although Chuhua always had a smiling expression on his face, Xiangzi had a vague feeling that he was thinking about something wrong.

Thinking back on what he had said, Xiangzi, who could probably guess what Chuhua was thinking about, continued to explain with a mixture of laughter and tears:

"Xiang isn't the type to deliberately not reply to me. She has her own reasons."

The reason why I have no choice?

Chu Hua had a flash of inspiration and thought of the little Xiang whom he met at the beach. She was completely different from the current Qingchuan Xiang. She was more like a cold ice cube than a water elf.

Could it be that Qingchuan Xiang's current friendly, easy-going, playful and cute appearance is actually an act, and in fact, underneath that, she is still the same as before?

If this conjecture is true, then the reason why Xiaoxiang rejected Xiangzi is that she really has no feelings for Xiangzi?

But Chu Hua didn't feel that was the case. If Xiao Xiang really hadn't changed at all from the past to now, she wouldn't be so blushing and heart-pounding now.

But no matter what, this also means that I will have a chance in the future!

But now, Chuhua still has some other doubts that he wants to ask Xiangzi.

"Xiangzi, is there anything I can help you with now?"

Chuhua looked at Xiangzi's work uniform and the white skirt underneath it, which was obviously much cheaper than the clothes Xiangzi had worn in the past. After hesitating for a moment, she still asked.

Although the two of them had tacitly agreed not to mention this matter before, they both knew it in their hearts. Chuhua couldn't help but see that Xiangzi must have encountered some setbacks in his life now.

When Xiangzi heard this question, his face darkened for a moment, but he also knew that he could not hide it from Chuhua. If Chuhua didn't ask, he would keep thinking about it.

"Don't worry, I have no problems in life now."

The statement "no problem" is only half true. After getting the job in the bookstore, Xiangzi's life is no longer as difficult as at the beginning, and he can even save some money.

But there is one thing that has always given Xiangzi a headache, and that is his bastard father.

Xiangzi tolerated the alcoholism, but what really made her uncomfortable was that he still hadn't looked for a job, and the entire family's financial resources depended entirely on Xiangzi, a high school girl.

When he thought of this, Xiangzi frowned subconsciously.

"It's all thanks to Xiang. If it weren't for her, I would definitely be having a much harder time now."

Thinking back, before the day she quit the team, Xiangzi had been looking for a job for several days. If it weren't for Qingchuan Xiang's invitation, she might have gone into customer service.

"That's it..."
