Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

"Please." Xiangzi nodded.

"Why did Xiangzi leave CRYCHIC in the first place? And in that way?"

"You're still asking about this now?" Xiangzi couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

As if seeing Xiangzi's doubts, Su Shi explained: "Although we, along with Xiaoxiang, explained things to each other in another park, even then, Xiangzi still had many things left unclear."

Su Shi was talking about what happened during the sun shower, which Xiangzi still remembered vividly.

Xiangzi thought about it, not whether to answer the question, but to organize his words.

"Something happened in our family. I'm sorry I can't go into details about the details, but anyway, my father and I have left the Toyokawa family..."

Xiangzi did not talk about her current living situation in detail, but roughly explained that because of the tight life situation, the band that was mainly for fun would only become a burden to her, so she suddenly asked them to quit on that rainy day.

After Xiangzi finished speaking, Su Shi nodded in understanding and murmured to himself in a voice that Xiangzi could not hear: "Sure enough... it's exactly the same as now..."

Chapter 353: My head is full...

"Anything else you want to ask?"

Xiangzi spoke to Su Shi somewhat stiffly. She was still puzzled as to why Su Shi would bring up the past at this time, but her intuition vaguely sensed that something was wrong - where she had made a mistake.

"Yes." Su Shi nodded with a smile, as if the gloomy and unhappy expression on her face just a moment ago was fake. "But doesn't Xiangzi want to ask me something? Why don't we take turns asking each other?"

This guy will really be a good potential artist... Xiangzi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Su Shi's superb face-changing skills.

But Xiangzi really has something he wants to know from Su Shi.

"How is Xiaoxiang now?" Although Xiangzi had heard Qingchuanxiang herself say that once she caught a cold and had a fever, her condition would be very serious, but it was still difficult to have a concrete imagination just by looking at it.

"Ah, now you start to care about Xiaoxiang again." Su Shi's words were full of gunpowder, and the "ah" at the beginning was stretched out in tone, sounding full of yin and yang, which made it hard for Xiangzi not to get angry.

However, Su Shi still answered Xiangzi's question truthfully:

"It's not good. Besides the symptoms of weakness, dizziness, and headaches caused by the severe high fever itself, Xiaoxiang's mental state is also problematic."

Su Shi thought of the morbid charm that Qingchuan Xiang displayed yesterday, "The fever seems to make Xiaoxiang feel that all the water in her body has evaporated, which makes her feel dehydrated even when she drinks enough water.

"But for now, she should be much better. At least today she popped in to our band's Line group and said something every now and then."

Su Shi briefly described Qingchuan Xiang's situation. His tone in the previous part had always been understated, but he emphasized the pronunciation of the words "our band".

It was a lame little trick...but it did serve to further irritate Xiangzi.

"Then it's my turn next." Before Xiangzi could frown, Su Shi went straight to the next topic, not giving Xiangzi a chance to get angry. "Second question, what are your thoughts on CRYCHIC... Never mind, CRYCHIC is over. Do you still miss the other members of the band, myself, Deng, Lixi and the others, even a little bit?"

It was this kind of question again. Xiangzi became more and more confused. It seemed that Su Shi was no longer as obsessed with the past as before, but he asked two such questions in a row.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"Xiangzi, answer this question first, and I will answer yours right away."

Did Xiangzi ever miss the other members of the band? To be honest, of course I did. During the first few days after leaving the band, what bothered Xiangzi for a long time was that he couldn't help but think of Deng and the others. Even though they had already left the band, he still clung to the good old days...

But now it’s over, and even if he still has memories in his heart, Xiangzi will answer like this: “No.”

However, Su Shi did not feel any dissatisfaction with Xiangzi's answer, which seemed too heartless. Instead, she laughed even more happily.

"If that's the case, then it looks like you won't remember Xiaoxiang anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you think it's a little too familiar, Xiangzi? What happened to these two." Su Shi suppressed his smile, "Before you left CRYCHIC, and now you and Xiaoxiang are exactly the same."

"These two things are totally different!" Xiangzi argued, "I left the band because..."

"I do not care."

"What……?"

However, Su Shi seemed to have no intention of listening to Xiangzi's explanation. The last smile on his face disappeared completely, and he looked expressionless.

"I said, I don't care. I really wanted to find out what happened to you at the beginning, to think about whether you had something to hide. Not only me, but also Xiao Deng, and even Li Xi had indirectly expressed her concern for you once or twice, but Li Xi's worry soon turned into anger, and now I don't care so much about why you left.

"I understand now. What I really wanted to know at that time was why you were so disregarding of our feelings and left without any explanation."

Su Shi's grip on the strap of her schoolbag tightened, as if she was suppressing her emotions, but she couldn't help getting excited.

"You did come to us in person and asked us to leave the group, but the way you didn't explain anything clearly was no different from just walking away without saying goodbye! We practiced songs together, held live shows, and were moved by our own song, Spring Shadow, but in the end, you ignored all of our worries and confusion and just turned around and left.

"You have to consider your own pride. I understand why you don't want to tell us about the changes in your family, but why are you unwilling to even tell us a lie to put our minds at ease?"

"I..." From the beginning, Xiangzi began to feel his throat dry, and even if he wanted to speak now, it was difficult for him to speak. Even this sentence was immediately interrupted by Su Shi.

"Or has the damage to your self-esteem caused by a white lie outweighed the importance of our relationship with you?"

When Su Shi said this, his originally excited emotions calmed down, but this calmness actually brought him more pressure.

The question was difficult to answer and Xiangzi was completely speechless.

But Su Shi had not finished what he wanted to say. What he had just said was just an old account from the previous dynasty.

"And Xiaoxiang... I don't care who's right or wrong in the conflict between you two. I only know one thing: after you said those words to Xiaoxiang, it was like history repeating itself. You fled there again, leaving Xiaoxiang alone.

"I don't believe you don't know how important 'flow' is to her, yet not only do you accuse her of being the biggest stagnant water, you even blame Xiaoxiang for your own stagnation? Can you call what you're doing progress?"

Su Shi's tone grew colder and more tired. Finally, he sighed softly and uttered his final rebuke:

"You really are, your mind is full of only yourself. It's been a long time since I last had a dream."

"..."

"I've said everything I wanted to say." Su Shi looked at Xiangzi, who was standing there like a stone. She didn't know what Xiangzi was thinking, but as she said, she didn't care anymore. "Finally, go and apologize to her. Whether she forgives you or not is your business."

Su Shi finally said Qingchuan Xiang's ward number and turned to leave.

Chapter 354 Discharge

"Oh, our little water man recovered pretty quickly this time."

In the nurses' station in the hospital, several nurses who had nothing to do for the time being were chatting at their seats. Even when the hospital was idle, they always had to worry about whether something might happen to a patient. No one dared to play with their phones, so they had to chat together, which was a rare entertainment in the high-intensity work.

This time, there was another person chatting with everyone, or rather, it was the "water" that everyone was chatting with...

"This time it's indeed much better than the previous times when I had a fever." Qingchuan Xiang was still wearing a hospital gown and a thicker coat to prevent catching a cold. At the same time, he stuffed a towel into the collar of his neck and spread it on Xiaoxiang's entire back to absorb sweat. This measure is commonly used when taking care of children, and Xiaoxiang still uses it frequently.

"He was able to get out of bed and walk in the afternoon of the second day of hospitalization. In the past, our little water man would still be lying in bed, rubbing against the bed and steaming at this time~" Another nurse also joked in a friendly manner.

This time, everyone chose not to sit in their seats for the chat. After all, when they are busy, they always have no time to move their feet. Don't expect everyone to have the energy to stand during breaks. When they usually chat, they all look like they are on duty, lying on their seats like zombies, chatting incoherently. They are obviously nurses, but they look more like they are suffering from terminal illnesses than the patients.

Well, this time I was able to entertain a child, a good-looking one with a lovely personality and who didn't cause any trouble. Even just hugging, rubbing his head, or pinching Qingchuan Xiang's little face could make me feel as happy and warm as if I had just drunk a cup of hot milk tea in the cold winter wind.

To be fair, Qingchuan Xiang was not a frequent visitor to the hospital, but Xiao Xiang's symptoms were indeed very novel and rare. In addition, Xiang herself was very impressive and beautiful, so the nurses basically remembered this water-like child. Even the head nurse who was as cold and hard as a stone would put on a stern face and pour Qingchuan Xiang a cup of her unique hot tea, and then pat her little head very naturally.

It seemed as if she was simply concerned about the young patient and didn't want to touch him herself - the nurses all discussed this secretly behind her back. Of course, if they dared to say it in front of the patient, they would have to be prepared to have their names written all over the roster.

"How long has the towel been in there?"

Just then, the head nurse walked into the room, holding a steaming towel. Her imposing figure and terrifying aura were usually effective in calming down any troublesome patients' families, and also intimidating the younger nurses from being lazy and slacking off. As she approached, the nurses who had surrounded Qingchuan Xiang subconsciously fell silent, watching the head nurse occupy the best position to stroke Xiao Xiang.

"It's been 20 minutes." Qingchuan Xiang was not very afraid of the head nurse. She sat obediently on the small swivel chair and answered.

"Change the towel."

The head nurse skillfully pulled out the towel that was sandwiched between Qingchuan Xiang's back and inner clothes from behind her as she lowered her head. The towel, which had been soaked in hot water but wrung dry by the head nurse with amazing strength, was now wet again. If it weren't for the fact that the towel was pulled out from Qingchuan Xiang's clothes, one would really think it had just been soaked in a basin of water.

The towel soaked with Qingchuan Xiang's sweat was placed on the back of a chair belonging to an unknown nurse. The head nurse quickly stuffed the new towel she had in her hand when she entered the room back in and straightened it out to ensure that there were no wrinkles or protrusions that would cause discomfort.

Then he touched Qingchuan Xiang's head. The big hand that could only cover Xiang's head directly tried very hard to touch it gently, but it still caused Xiang to shake her head uncontrollably.

"This is really incredible—"

A nurse standing by was staring at the towel with her eyes wide open. Who would have thought that this ordinary-looking wet towel was actually full of Qingchuan Xiang's sweat.

"Don't have any bad ideas." Another nurse who was on good terms with her immediately said with a smile.

"Staring at someone else's hand towel like that would be perverted even for me."

Even Qingchuan Xiang couldn't help but speak, but when she said this, she didn't have a trace of disgust on her face, but smiled as always, which made the nurse sigh that she might really be an angel... and at the same time, she felt a little bit sorry in her heart.

"Do you still feel any discomfort when you get out of bed and walk?" The head nurse didn't join in the little farce between the younger nurses, but she didn't stop them from using this method to relieve work pressure. She asked Qingchuan Xiang seriously about her condition, "So far, the amount of sweating in 20 minutes is still too much. Are you experiencing any other dizziness or pain?"

"I still get a headache if I'm hit by the cold wind. I just passed an open window, but the second time I put on my coat and hood, it was fine," Qingchuan Xiang said. "Even if I get a headache, it's no longer like a knife stabbing my head. The dizziness and vomiting are gone, too, but I still feel a little weak."

"Well, that's definitely much better." The head nurse nodded with satisfaction. Patients like Qingchuan Xiang who could clearly express their feelings were rare. Sometimes she really wished everyone in society could learn how to clearly express their physical symptoms, just like in professional training. "If you want, you can be discharged today. As long as you avoid catching a cold again, you'll be fine."

"Hey, Xiaoxiang is leaving now..."

A nurse said it subconsciously with some regret, and was immediately glared at by the head nurse.

"The hospital isn't a good place. No matter how soft the beds in the ward are, they're not as good as your own bed at home," the head nurse said earnestly. "Not only the patients, but even we nurses know this. Look at these awful people..."

The head nurse said this, pointing bluntly at the nurses around her.

“Every time I get off work, I run faster than anyone else.”

The nurses all laughed awkwardly, but when it was time to run, they would still run away without even saying hello to their colleagues who still needed to be on duty.

"Then I'll be discharged from the hospital today." Qingchuan Xiang also felt that he was about to be discharged from the hospital.

"Okay, call your sister and tell her, and I'll go help you prepare the discharge procedures."

"Thank you, sister." Qingchuan Xiang sweetly thanked the head nurse with extremely high professional qualities.

Just as the head nurse was about to leave, a nurse who was still on duty outside looked in and said, "Xiao Xiang, someone is here to visit you."

Are Sushi and the others here again? But I haven't heard them mention it in the Line group.

Qingchuan Xiang got up and walked out, and was surprised to see that the person who came to see him was the one who was the direct cause of his fever, Toyokawa Xiangzi.

Chapter 355 Dialogue

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

"No, it's okay. I came here on my own without telling anyone beforehand."

At the hospital entrance, Qingchuan Xiang, who had just quickly completed the discharge procedures with the help of the head nurse, had already changed into his own clothes. Except for his face being a little redder than before and the coat and hat he always wore tightly, he seemed to have regained his previous lively feeling.

Even when facing Xiangzi, who had caused such a scene the day before yesterday, Qingchuan Xiang continued to greet him with a smile, as if nothing had happened.

She did recover and returned to that "indifferent" state.

This should have been the appearance of Qingchuan Xiang that Xiangzi had seen the most times, but at this moment, Xiangzi did not dare to look directly into Xiaoxiang's blue eyes that seemed to be able to accommodate everything as if it were the sea. Even in his heart, he was screaming and shouting, wanting Xiangzi to run away from here.

Guilt and self-blame made her want to run away in fear, but at the same time, it was these emotions that nailed Xiangzi's legs firmly in place, not allowing her to "escape" again.

"Xiangzi, are you okay?"

Qingchuan Xiang noticed that Xiangzi was absent-minded. She was not walking in a straight line and was about to fall into the green belt on the side.

"fine……"

Qingchuan Xiang's concern made Xiangzi purse her lips. It was obvious that she should have asked Xiang this question, but now she even felt difficulty in speaking, as if her throat was rusted and stuck, and the unpleasant smell of rusty blood filled her throat.

Xiangzi has been in this state ever since Su Shi left.

"Maybe I should scold you a few times now? That way, you'll feel better, Xiangzi?" Qingchuan Xiang made his tone more cheerful, trying to reduce Xiangzi's psychological pressure.

"That would make me...feel more relaxed than I should."

"But using your own so-called pain to feel atonement doesn't actually provide any real compensation to the victim. I think it's the same thing as what you said, Xiangzi, about 'undeserved relief.'"

"..." This made Xiangzi even more at a loss for words, so he simply gave up and said, "Then you scold me, Xiang."

"That shouldn't be the case, Xiangzi. You should have understood your mistake and straightened your back to apologize sincerely. This is the self-respect you have always upheld, right?" Qingchuan Xiang shook his head, and once again judged Xiangzi's wrong response, while at the same time giving Xiangzi caring guidance.

But these words sounded so overly spicy to another person that she was a little dumbfounded.

"Have you already started scolding me...?"

"Hoo-hoo." Qingchuan Xiang chose to respond to this question with an ambiguous laugh, "Isn't it?"

Qingchuan Xiang's unpredictable behavior style, like flowing water, appeared again, but this time Xiangzi felt inexplicably relieved because of the helplessness he experienced again.

"Even if I want to apologize, Xiangzi, if you say it in your current state where you can't even speak clearly, I won't accept it." Qingchuan Xiang, who had put her hands in her pockets to keep warm, took her hands out and shook them. She was already sweating, and she had to wipe them with a tissue. "Xiangzi, didn't you say you would take me somewhere? Before that, how about you try to calm yourself down?

"Like, by chatting with me."

"That would only make me feel worse." Although he said this, the corners of Xiangzi's mouth twitched. He wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh at once, which seemed a bit strange.

The two were walking to a place at this time. Qingchuan Xiang didn't know where they were going, but she was not the type who liked to just walk. At this time, she had no drinks or anything to satisfy her craving, so she had to catch Xiangzi.

After hesitating for a while, Xiangzi finally spoke and found a topic:

"Xiao Xiang, can you curse?"

Although Xiangzi had just hoped that Xiaoxiang would scold her, she had never seen Qingchuanxiang really angry and cursing, and Xiangzi could not imagine what Qingchuanxiang would be like like that.
