As she spoke, Qingchuan Xiang gently pulled off the clothes that were stuck to her body. Aiyin, who was pressing against Xiao Xiang against the wall, actually felt a moist and hot air coming out of it, blowing lightly on her face.

"Xiao Xiang, are you hot?"

"Oh, I have hot water in my thermos in my bag," Qingchuan Xiang explained. "Luckily it's not soup today, otherwise it would be really embarrassing to spill it on myself."

Aiyin stared at the bright red patch under Xiaoxiang's clothes. When she thought that it was the mark left by her biting, licking and sucking, she felt her mouth start to drool again.

Is Xiaoxiang some kind of sour candy?

Noticing Aine's gaze, Qingchuan Xiang stretched out a hand and pushed directly on Aine's collarbone, as if in retaliation for Aine's previous behavior, and pushed her away with a little force.

"The reward is over. If you continue, I won't let you continue."

The words were light and airy, seemingly forced, yet still taking into consideration Aine’s strength, making this action look a bit like a trick of giving in while resisting…

"Then I'll continue to practice well. Will there be rewards in the future?"

Having tasted the sweetness of it, Aine asked in anticipation.

"You wish." Qingchuan Xiang rolled his eyes, "It was you who wanted to form a band in the first place, Aiyin. I helped you get a good start. Not only do you not have to pay me, you can also get rewards from me, and the skills you practice can help you attract more attention.

"I'm not ashamed either."

Aine also knew this, but was this previous experience really just a one-time thing?

Aine couldn't help but feel a little regretful, and even wondered why she hadn't been a little bolder before.

Classic hindsight thinking, if we go back to the time when Aiyin and Xiaoxiang were intimate, do you think Aiyin could really make a bolder move?

"But if you still have any questions about guitar in the future, you can ask me. When you bring your guitar to school, you can practice there too. If you're confident, Aine, you can show off in front of your classmates."

“Yeah.” Aine nodded in agreement.

Although the highlight of the day was the reward after guitar practice, Aiyin also remembered very clearly the feeling of playing smoothly during the nearly one-hour practice before that, which was something she could never achieve on her own.

I have to say, having someone to guide you on site is much easier than learning by yourself by watching videos on a tablet.

The most important thing is to have someone to watch over Aiyin so that her attention is not distracted by other things. When I was studying on the tablet, there were often pop-up messages like "Miao Mengqin released a new video, go check it out~" and so on. Then I thought it would be okay to just watch one video...

Then a lot of time was wasted again.

"We still have to go to RiNG to practice tomorrow, so let's practice hard tonight."

Qingchuan Xiang shook his phone. Not long ago, Li Xi asked everyone in the Line group if they could continue to practice tomorrow. Xiang had no problem, and others also said yes.

The last remaining Aine, after today's practice, immediately started to perk up again, feeling that she was up to it again, and readily agreed to the practice appointment.

"Then Xiaoxiang, can you practice with me again? Even if there's no reward, I want to stay with Xiaoxiang for a while longer. It's better to say that this is already a reward."

Kiyokawa Xiang blinked, wondering what she was thinking when she heard Aine's straightforward words expressing her affection for him.

"If it were any other time, it wouldn't be a problem...but Aine, do you still remember that girl named Rakuna?"

"remember."

After all, he was the one who made Aine's already awkward situation this afternoon even worse, so how could he forget about it so quickly?

"Lena said she wanted to join the band, but I forgot to add her to the Line group. If we have practice tomorrow, I have to find her today and tell her."

“Is that so?” Aiyin nodded. There was really nothing she could do.

"When did Xiaoxiang get to know Lenai? They seem very familiar."

"Actually, today is the second time Lenai and I have met. We even had some unpleasantness the first time we met."

"Then what...?"

"Renai is a lot like a cat. Not only her actions and behavior, but her personality also makes people feel like a free-spirited cat. So, while ordinary people might worry about previous conflicts and think it would be awkward to start a friendly conversation the next time they meet, Renai doesn't care at all."

Qingchuan Xiang recalled the impression left by the short time he spent with Le Na.

"As for why Lenai and I seem so familiar... maybe it's because she hates me in some way?"

"What's going on?"

The more Aiyin listened, the more confused she became.

Chapter 225 Mizuki

After Qingchuan Xiang said goodbye to Aine and Aine's mother, although Xiaoxiang was planning to change her clothes, Aine said that the clothes would suit Xiaoxiang better than Aine herself, so she gave them to her.

In fact, Aine felt that she had "gained" too much today and was a little embarrassed, so she gave Qingchuan Xiang a set of clothes to balance herself.

"Please come and play often in the future."

Qingchuan Xiang nodded and bowed slightly to Aine and Aine's mother who were seeing her off, thanked them for their hospitality today, and then left.

"Okay, where should we go to find Lenai next..."

Qingchuan Xiang took out his cell phone and looked at the time. It was exactly 7:30, neither early nor late.

Although he took the responsibility of notifying Lenai in front of Lixi today, Qingchuan Xiang actually did not have Lenai's contact information.

Right now, RiNG is still open and can even be said to be at its most active. Regular live performances and most of the band practice sessions booked in the recording studio... basically all take place at this time.

The main reason this now-unknown band schedules their practice time so early after school is to avoid the evening time period that most people would choose.

If RiNG is still open, go ask Miss Rinrinko. It seems that she is familiar with Lena, or rather, Lena's family.

Thinking of this, Qingchuan Xiang also recalled that when Miss Rinrinko was trying to play with Lenai together with him today, she said something to the effect that Lenai's grandmother was very famous in the band circle and might have had some connection with her mother?

In fact, if you just want to get to know Ms. Shu, it’s nothing. My mother doesn’t think of herself as a big shot at all. Even if it’s just a newbie who just debuted, if she talks to Ms. Shu, she will definitely reply with a smile.

Moreover, my mother is a "self-employed person" and does not need to worry about restrictions such as agencies. As long as she likes someone - the most recent example is Sumimi, she will even take the initiative to offer cooperation without asking for anything in return.

Qingchuan Xiang sometimes thought that her mindless help to others might be inherited from her mother.

But since Rinrinko-san herself said that Lenna's grandmother is a very famous person, then it must be true, right?

Without thinking any more, Qingchuan Xiang directly called Sister Linlinzi...

"Ms. Ruoye, today's class is over. Your performance today was also very good~"

The enthusiastic and lively ballet teacher praised the student she was currently teaching one-on-one.

"Thank you."

Wakaba Mutsu bowed slightly, with a dignified demeanor and precise and graceful movements. Even in front of her graceful and charming teacher, her beauty was not inferior.

However, unlike her teacher's vitality, Mu's beauty carries a kind of fragility that makes people subconsciously want to pity and love her. Although she has beautiful facial features, she has no expression. Instead of looking lifeless, she looks like an exquisite doll that has been carefully crafted using all kinds of high-end craftsmanship.

That’s right, a puppet.

"Xiao Mu - get out of class is over now, so I'll just be casual."

Unlike the teachers of piano, etiquette or other courses that Wakaba Mu had, the ballet teacher was very young and seemed to be from a famous family. He had gained a great reputation at a young age, so he did not seem so old-fashioned. Although he was very strict during class, he became much more casual after class.

If Ye Mu knew that his father had not initially intended to let him take this teacher's class, thinking that she was too young, he would rather choose a more respected, older, and more experienced teacher that he had previously chosen. He felt that only by finding such a teacher could Mu be closer to the image of an aristocratic lady in his mind.

In the end, the teacher had no vacant classes, and Wakaba Mu's mother made the decision to allow Mu to take classes with the current young teacher.

Therefore, ballet class may be the course that Xiaomu is least reluctant to take.

"Although this may be a bit unreasonable...but Xiao Mu, you can smile more often. Smiling while dancing will make your dance more dazzling."

"Ah."

Although Xiao Mu seemed to have agreed, the ballet teacher knew that the child would still have this expressionless look the next time he came to class.

It’s not that it’s bad looking, but I’m just curious about how Xiaomu looks when he smiles.

Alas, maybe it’s because the pressure is too great. When I met Xiao Mu’s father once, his high-pressure attitude really made people frown.

"Xiao Mu, do you have any other plans next? If you're planning on going home directly, I can give you a ride. Your mother told me in advance today that she can't pick you up."

"No need to trouble the teacher..."

"It's okay, Teacher, I'm worried about you going home so late alone, Xiao Mu."

In the end, Xiao Mu was unable to refuse the ballet teacher's kindness. She herself was not good at refusing others, and always subconsciously obeyed the other party's arrangements.

After changing out of her dance dress and shoes, Xiao Mu had to say goodbye to Su Shi as soon as school was over to go to ballet class because Su Shi seemed to have a new band to practice with. She changed back into her school uniform and followed the teacher into her car.

After finishing practice, as soon as I sat down to rest, my ankles began to ache slightly...

But Xiao Mu, sitting in the passenger seat, didn't bend down to rub her ankle, which was not in line with etiquette. She just silently endured the discomfort, only occasionally glancing at her seemingly extremely thin ankle.

Even though it was just a short journey, the teacher didn't want the atmosphere to cool down and kept looking for topics to talk about. However, Xiao Mu could only respond in a low voice from time to time, looking very sullen.

But the teacher seemed to have anticipated this, and even when talking to himself, he kept sharing some interesting things with Xiaomu.

"Come to think of it, Xiao Mu is only in the first year of high school, still in the prime of his youth. Do you have someone you like?"

The topic of love always comes up naturally at various times, catering to people's natural curiosity and gossip.

The person I like...

The first thing Xiao Mu thought of was that he occasionally heard his classmates talking about similar topics in class when the teacher was not around.

Most of the students in Tsuki no Mori are young ladies. Their families have some rules when it comes to love, but that doesn't stop everyone from being interested in it. There are also students who already have a sweetheart, and they describe the excellent qualities of their favorite person to everyone with longing on their faces.

Xiaomu's family would naturally keep a close eye on her attitude towards love, but surprisingly, Xiaomu's father was the least concerned about this matter.

Maybe he felt that since Xiaomu was in an all-girls school, she couldn't fall in love even if she wanted to.

But Xiao Mu himself really doesn't have anyone he likes.

That's what she thinks.

No... If it was just "liking" rather than "being in love", several people would appear in Mu's mind: Xiangzi, Su Shi, and...

Qingchuan Xiang.

To be honest, Xiao Mu and Xiang had known each other for a very short time, and even during the time when they interacted the most, they didn't say a few words to each other.

But that time, after really meeting Qingchuan Xiang for the first time, Xiao Mu always felt that there was some kind of quality in Xiang that attracted him, but he couldn't tell what it was.

Is this love?

"Then, does the teacher have someone he likes?"

"Hey, Xiaomu is also interested in this topic?" The teacher never expected that Xiaomu would respond to this topic. After all, no matter what, Xiaomu is just a high school student.

"Teacher, the person I like is also a girl, two years younger than me."

The teacher himself seemed to want to share these things with others and was chatting quite enthusiastically.

Xiao Mu listened quietly as the teacher described the person she liked. He was a university student, but had left school early to open his own bookstore. He was also very outgoing and lively, and had a younger sister who was more quiet and lovely. Every time the teacher went to the bookstore alone, ostensibly to buy books but actually to see her crush, the younger sister would occasionally come to sell her homemade drinks...

Why does it sound familiar?

Just when Xiao Mu was hesitating whether to directly ask the teacher the last name of the person she liked, the teacher seemed to see something on the side of the road, said "Huh" softly, slowed down the car, and finally stopped next to a pedestrian on the side of the road and rolled down the window.

"Isn't this Xiaoxiang? Why are you walking here alone so late?"

"Sister Wuzi?"

Wu Zi is the name of Xiaomu's ballet teacher.

Not long before this, Kiyokawa Xiang had just called Miss Rinrinko and asked about the probability that Lenai would be playing guitar alone at the former site of the live house called Space, which was once opened by Lenai's grandmother Tsuzuki Shifune - now it is a parking lot.

Unexpectedly, I met an acquaintance on the way there.

"Xiao Xiang...?"

Oh, there's more than one acquaintance.

"Isn't this Xiaomu?" Only then did Qingchuan Xiang see that it was Xiaomu sitting in the passenger seat. He immediately understood why Xiaomu was with Wuzi. "Did you just finish ballet class?"

"Ah."

"I didn't expect you two knew each other? Well, after all, your parents are celebrities." Wu Zi looked at her students and Qingchuan Xiang happily, "Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Qingchuan Xiang didn't hesitate and directly told the address of his destination and then got on the car.

The car started again, but this time with one more person, there was no need for Teacher Wu Zi to find topics alone.

It was the person who started the topic that was a bit unexpected.

"Xiao Xiang, it turns out there are clothes like this..."

Because Qingchuan Xiang was sitting in the back seat and Xiaomu was sitting in the passenger seat, in order to maintain his composure, Xiaomu did not turn around to look at Qingchuan Xiang. He just sat there quietly and talked to himself.

Eh?

Wu Zi blinked. She had been trying hard to find topics to talk about before and had barely managed to get Xiao Mu to say a word. But now that Yu's sister got in the car, Xiao Mu actually took the initiative to speak?
