Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

"Of course! I'll write it down for you to see."

Aiyin was very excited and borrowed a small notebook and pen from under the light to write out the name of the band. She wrote the six exclamation marks especially heavily.

"Do these six exclamation points represent the six of us in the band?"

As soon as Su Shi saw the number of exclamation marks, she guessed the intention. She was unexpectedly quite satisfied with the name of the band, but she didn't expect that the inspiration came from Xiao Xiang.

Su Shi couldn't help but feel happy. Does this mean that Xiao Xiang really has a sense of belonging to the band?

"Hehe, the idea of six exclamation marks was mine."

After some discussion, everyone seemed to have no objection to the band's name, so they officially decided on it, and finally decided on the name for the band that had been a month in coming up.

But Aine didn't intend to just skip over the topic so easily, and she struck while the iron was hot and said:

"Now that we've decided on a band name, let's also think about the uniforms and band logo!"

"I admit that a band name is indeed necessary, but are uniforms and the like really necessary?"

Li Xi did not express any objection, but he felt that this was unnecessary. After all, when CRYCHIC performed live, everyone even went on stage in school uniforms.

“Afterglow has its own uniform~”

"...It's not impossible."

It is no secret that Li Xi is a fan of the band Afterglow. When he was working at RiNG, Li Xi often got into a short period of confusion because the members of Afterglow occasionally came to buy drinks.

Seeing that Li Xi was easily convinced, Su Shi said with a bit of amusement: "Well, now is not a good time to discuss this. The live show is only a few days away. It takes a lot of effort to discuss the clothing style and then produce it. The most important thing right now is to practice well first."

"Well, we're already very proficient. Didn't we basically avoid any mistakes during practice the past two days? Even though Xiaoxiang can't come to training due to illness, she's the one we don't need to worry about the most, right?"

Although she said this, Aiyin's body was honest and she took out her guitar from the bag and prepared to practice tuning it. It was obvious that she had been completely taught by Li Xi and Su Shi to practice hard.

While taking it, he kept muttering that there is no team spirit without a uniform, and that bands with good aesthetics have exclusive clothes and so on.

The sad love sound is also a common feature of the band practice.

But, team uniforms?

Su Shi had a secret thought in her mind. She had always wanted Xiao Xiang to identify more with the band. Although Xiao Xiang seemed to be integrating well with the group, Su Shi knew that if Xiao Xiang ever really thought about quitting the band, she would definitely do so.

If Xiaoxiang quits the band, Watasi...

In fact, if it was just about quitting the band, Su Shi would not be so obsessed. As long as she could continue to see Qingchuan Xiang, then it was not particularly important whether they were in the same band or not. Su Shi was sure that even if Xiao Xiang quit the band now, she would still be willing to come and chat with everyone and watch the band's performances. She would not cut ties with the band like some unfaithful woman did after leaving the band.

But what if Xiaoxiang quits the band and wants to join Xiangzi's band?

Su Shi's face darkened unconsciously when she thought of this possibility. To be fair, Su Shi didn't have such a big problem with Xiangzi now, but if she wanted to steal Xiaoxiang's girlfriend, Su Shi would never let her go easily!

When Xiaoxiang really wanted to join Xiangzi Band, he found an excuse to trick Xiaoxiang into coming to his house, and then...

Well, of course that is the last resort. Before that, Su Shi still has to try some gentler ways to prevent Xiao Xiang from easily thinking about leaving the team. Discussing the design of band members' costumes together is a good way. The team uniform can become a symbol of the band's friendship that is embodied in reality.

Maybe it won't have much effect, but as long as it has some impact on my vegetarian diet, I'm willing to do it.

In this case.

Before the band started practicing, Su Shi called everyone over, drawing everyone's attention, and then suggested with a smile:

"I have a little suggestion. How about everyone come over to my house after band practice today?"

"Eh? The Su family?"

"Yeah." Su Shi nodded. "My house is big, so it's no problem for everyone to come over. We can discuss things like team uniforms together in the evening. If you want, you can stay overnight at my house if you're tired of playing. Of course, I still have to inform my family first."

Chapter 364: The World is Different

"Does everyone need to go home and get a change of clothes or something?"

After today's practice, everyone seemed very positive about the idea of staying overnight at Su Shi's house for team building. After each of them called their families to explain the situation, they all got permission.

Although I had to go to school the next day, I came to RiNG directly after school and took my schoolbag and other things with me. Besides, the weather was not hot now, so if I didn’t plan to take a shower, there was no need to go home to get clothes. I could just go directly to Su Shi’s house.

But someone definitely wants to take a shower.

Everyone looked at Qingchuan Xiang. She was still on the phone with her elder sister to explain the situation.

"...You're not...alone, are you?"

Qingchuan Xiang didn't turn on the speakerphone, but the sound coming out of the phone was still enough for everyone to hear a few words.

"Everyone in our band will be there. There are six of us in total."

“…That’s alright…”

For some reason, everyone in the band listened to the tone of Qingchuan Xiang's sister on the other end of the phone, and seemed to suddenly feel relieved when they heard that Xiaoxiang was not going to someone else's house alone.

Qingchuan Xiang was a bit surprised. Her elder sister had been a bit stricter with her today, or rather, recently. She'd been to the Su family before. Back then, when she'd called Qingchuan Yu to let him know, even though she couldn't see her elder sister on the other end, Xiang could imagine her waving her hand and letting him have fun. The only emotional turmoil she'd felt was that she hadn't had her younger sister to cook dinner, so she'd had to order takeout.

Maybe it was because after what happened with Xiangzi, he really felt that his younger sister was too easy to deal with, so he started to worry that going to someone else's house alone would put him in danger.

Although Qingchuan Xiang knew what her sister was thinking, she felt a little puzzled. Why did her sister feel relieved when she said that she was not the only one going?

Isn’t it true that the more people there are, the more chaotic it will be?

I don't understand.

"Then I'll hang up first."

After receiving the notification, Qingchuan Xiang hung up the phone and found that everyone was looking at him.

"what happened?"

"Nothing, Xiaoxiang, do you want to take a shower tonight? Do you need to go home to get clothes or something?" Su Shi asked, "Although you usually bring spare clothes, the weather has turned cold recently, and I wonder if you haven't brought any yet."

"I want to take a shower, but it's too troublesome to go home and get clothes."

Qingchuan Xiang really didn't bring spare clothes today. Although his home was not far from RiNG, it was still a bit troublesome to go back to get clothes. "Well, can I wear Su Shi's clothes after I take a shower tonight? I will change back into my own clothes when I go to school the next day."

"Of course!"

The first word that Su Shi spoke sounded like it was not clamped and had a slight break in the lower tone. What happened?

"If Su Shi really cares about it, it's better to say it out loud." Qingchuan Xiang couldn't help but say it seriously. After all, he had just learned the lesson of not speaking clearly not long ago.

"No, of course I don't mind."

Su Shi waved her hands repeatedly, indicating that she was very happy to provide Xiao Xiang with clean clothes.

The last time Xiao Xiang came to my house, she took a shower and changed into Xiang's spare clothes. If she wore her own clothes this time, there was no doubt that when Xiao Xiang left the next day, she would definitely not take the clothes she had slept in with her...

"If you need to take a shower at night but don't want to go home to get clothes, you can wear my clothes. I have plenty of clothes at home."

In order to avoid his intentions being too obvious, Su Shi added another sentence.

Now that this problem has been solved, there is basically nothing for everyone to go home to get, so they prepared to go directly from RiNG to Su Shi's house.

………………

"so big--"

In front of the apartment where the Su Shi family lived, everyone except Su Shi and Qingchuan Xiang looked at the apartment with some surprise. The apartment looked luxurious and high-end just by looking at the door from the outside.

“Like a hotel…”

Xiao Deng nervously tugged at the corner of his clothes, as if he wanted to straighten his clothes a little.

"Okay, everyone, don't be so nervous. This is just a residential area, nothing high-end here." Su Shi was a little amused and reminded, "Don't shout too much when you go in, otherwise you will be kicked out by the property management."

"As expected of a student of Tsuki no Mori..."

Sadly, those of us who are still young have already witnessed the disparity in the world at this time.

Qingchuan Xiang thought about everyone in mygo and realized that the gap between the rich and the poor was indeed quite large. Not to mention the financial resources of the Su Shi family, Su Shi's mother could definitely be called a strong woman. She became a company executive on her own and moved directly from her previous shabby apartment to where she is now. It is not an exaggeration to describe her rise.

As for Qingchuan Xiang's own family, although her mother Qingchuan Shu can be seen more in the gossip news of the entertainment industry, this phenomenon is more because the entertainment industry is very keen on playing with public opinion. In fact, Ms. Shu has enough awards and achievements in literature, drama, painting and other fields. Xiaoxiang's all-round talent is to a certain extent influenced by her mother's genes.

Apart from anything else, Ms. Shu has earned a considerable fortune just from the royalties from writing books.

Qingchuan Xiang's father, Qingchuan Dian, who is rarely mentioned, is somewhat similar to Su Shi's mother. He also works in a large company, but his position is even higher.

In terms of wealth alone, the Kiyokawa family is already more powerful than the Nagasaki family.

It seems that the Qingchuan family prefers to squeeze together in a smaller space rather than a big mansion or villa. They don’t have too many material needs in their daily life, so they have always been low-key.

Rakuna and Aine's families must be pretty well off, right? The former's grandmother is already quite wealthy for being able to open a livehouse; musicians need some money. As for the latter, Qingchuan Xiang saw her house last time. It's a small, detached villa, and they can easily support Aine studying abroad. If she doesn't want to stay abroad anymore, she can come back at any time without any regrets.

Xiaodeng and Lixi's family is an ordinary family. They can't be said to be poor. It's just that the financial situation of other people in the band is much better.

With Su Shi's reminder, everyone followed Su Shi closely and obediently, like an eagle catching chickens, to avoid being dragged out by the property management as a group of "strangers".

This crowded group of people immediately attracted the attention of the front desk staff of the apartment. She recognized Su Shi and didn't intend to interfere. It was not a wrong thing for residents to bring their friends home to play. But suddenly her eyes lit up when she saw Qingchuan Xiang in the group, and she waved to call her over.

Amidst everyone's astonishment, Qingchuan Xiang started chatting and laughing directly with the staff. The sister chatted with Xiao Xiang so cordially that it seemed as if Xiao Xiang was the one living here.

Everyone once again realized Xiaoxiang's special affection for her elders.

Perhaps only someone with this kind of charm can persuade others to order more drinks when opening a "bar".

Chapter 365 Drinks

When everyone entered the Su Shi family's home, they all felt a little restrained for a moment. The super spacious space made it feel more like being in a part of a shopping mall than being a guest at a friend's house.

If it weren't for the fact that this space seemed a little too large for only one or two people, there would still be many traces of life in it. Otherwise, it would be too cold.

"Come on in, with you here, my house will finally be a little more lively."

Su Shi found the slippers for the guests and asked everyone to come in quickly.

Although the idea of inviting everyone to his home was originally for Xiaoxiang, after actually bringing everyone here, even though nothing had been done yet, Su Shi already began to feel a sense of fulfillment in his heart.

So much so that the tone became subconsciously a little gentler, not as restrained as before, but more pleasant to listen to, plain yet warm and comfortable.

"Wow, Su Shiqin really has the temperament of a hostess."

Aiyin looked at Sushi, who usually took care of Lena and Xiaodeng like a mother, and occasionally also took Kiyokawa Xiang into consideration. After arriving home, she seemed even more gentle. There was a kind of maternal radiance that didn't match Sushi's age range shining on her...

Sometimes this maternal glow can turn into something even more bizarre: a 16-year-old underage JK widow? That sounds even worse.

It seems like Su Shi’s mother is always busy with work, so Su Shi always lives alone at home. Is this the result of her training?

"'Su Shiqin' is such a strange name. After all, I am the one who is supposed to entertain the guests, right?" Su Shi was slightly annoyed.

Qingchuan Xiang, who had been to Su Shi's house once, took the first step. He rubbed his feet together twice and took off his shoes neatly. After putting his sneakers on the empty space on the shoe cabinet, he put on the slippers prepared by Su Shi - the pair thrown in front of Xiao Xiang seemed to be the one she wore the last time she came - and walked into the house very familiarly.

"Excuse me."

With Qingchuan Xiang's leading demonstration, everyone gradually relaxed and changed into slippers one by one before entering the house.

"As for your schoolbags, just find an empty spot to put them." Su Shi led everyone to the sofa in the living room, turned on the TV, which was rarely used and was only used to create a lively family atmosphere, and turned around as if to do something. "Feel free to take out the snacks and drinks. I'm going to tidy up the guest room. I need to clear out some bedding."

"Let's come and help too..." Seeing Su Shi was about to leave, Xiao Deng quickly stood up.

"It's okay, Xiao Deng, you guys take a rest first, or you can discuss the team uniform issue first." Su Shi said with a smile and went to get busy.

Everyone felt a little strange. Today, Su Shi really showed some different feelings than before. During the previous practice, Su Shi couldn't be said to be unkind, and she often played the role of mediating the atmosphere. But when Su Shi entertained everyone at home, even her voice was not hoarse!

"Xiang, you've been to Su Shi's house before, right?" Li Xi became curious and looked at Qingchuan Xiang, "Was she like this when you came last time?"

"Ok?"

Although Qingchuan Xiang responded, Li Xi waited for a long time but did not hear her reply. Yi Yixiang did not even turn around to look at her, but was curiously looking at a new facility in the corner of the living room that was not there when she came last time. Not only Qingchuan Xiang, but anyone else could see it:

Su Shi’s house actually has a bar that looks like a pub, and behind the bar there is an exquisite wine cabinet and various fancy tool placement tables.

Furthermore, this bar counter isn't just for show; it comes with every tool needed for mixing drinks. There's even more than one set, but rather a complete set of tools of varying sizes neatly arranged on shelves. Even just looking at it as a decoration creates a professional vibe. Equipment like an ice maker is also included.

More importantly, although the wine cabinet at the back was not full and only occupied a small part of the space, there was no doubt that the contents inside were all real wine, and Qingchuan Xiang could tell at a glance.

With unique bottle seals, even the bottles themselves are not ordinary mass-produced beer bottles. These beers are even branded and expensive goods.

Just one glance and Qingchuan Xiang couldn't take his eyes off her. The "hmm" he could say just now was probably just a subconscious reaction after hearing his name being called, and his soul must have been hooked away long ago.

The bar counter and exquisite tools are secondary. After all, the VA-11 bar counter is designed to imitate the style of a bar. Qingchuan Xiang himself collects various cocktail tools, which are definitely more than the number of sets in Su Shijia's house, and there are also commemorative models limited to the world.

But there is a ban on real alcohol in Qingchuan's family. Even if the adults are very keen on teasing the children to dip chopsticks in beer and take a sip, they will watch it closely and not allow Qingchuan Xiang to touch it at all.

By the way, it was thanks to Qingchuan Xiang that Qingchuan Yu was able to truly refrain from drinking. Even when her former classmates and friends occasionally came out for dinner, she would refuse to drink at the table. Otherwise, unless she stayed out all night and came home the next day, if Qingchuan Xiang smelled alcohol on Yu, she would definitely stare at her with a very pitiful look.

It was impossible for Yu to secretly bring back alcohol for his younger sister to drink, and he really couldn't stand Qingchuanxiang's pitiful look, so he simply didn't touch any alcohol himself.

But now I actually saw these little things in Su Shi’s house... It should be okay to drink a little bit secretly, just a little bit, right?

"Hello? Hello!"

Li Xi called Qingchuan Xiang several times in a row but got no response, which attracted the attention of others.

Li Xi walked to Qingchuan Xiang's side and waved his hands back and forth in front of Xiang's eyes, interrupting Qingchuan Xiang's concentration on staring at the wine bottles.
