Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

Such a... such a friendly person! Xiaoxiang, love——

After being directly told "I want to see you", Aine immediately became cheerful. It seemed that after being unlucky in London for so long, her luck had finally turned around!

Being able to make friends with a mysterious and kind classmate like Qingchuan Xiang on the first day, my wish to start over has had a dream start.

“Of course.” Aiyin struck while the iron was hot and took out her phone, “Let’s add each other as Line friends now!”

You asked for this, little Aiyin. Qingchuan Xiang watched Aiyin take out her phone and blinked. He was very curious about what kind of expression Aiyin would have when she found out that she already had Xiang's friend, and that it was the "Mrs. Xiang" who knew that she was originally going to study in London.

But just as Qingchuan Xiang took out his phone, a voice suddenly sounded in front of him:

"Xiang, where have you been? Everyone in the classroom is almost here."

Kiyokawa Xiang and Aine looked at the same time and saw a blue-haired girl standing at the door of Class B's classroom.

"Are you waiting for me, Xiangzi?" Qingchuan Xiang asked.

"The teacher just noticed that a few people hadn't arrived yet, so he asked if anyone knew any students who could contact those who hadn't arrived yet."

Xiangzi saw that Qingchuan Xiang hadn't even put on his vest properly, and it was tangled around his arm. He had no choice but to step forward to remind Qingchuan Xiang of his etiquette. "Put on your school uniform properly. You look so disheveled, aren't you afraid of being criticized?"

"Okay, okay—" Under Xiangzi's urging gaze, Qingchuan Xiang shook the vest that had been folded and put it on himself.

It's really messed up. Xiangzi sighed, walked over to help Qingchuanxiang straighten his clothes, and patted them a few times to make the creases less obvious. It looked a little neater now.

"You're always careful about your clothes at work, but why are you so sloppy at school?"

Aiyin watched as Kiyokawa Xiang and Xiangzi who suddenly appeared started chatting, and their tone and actions clearly showed that they were very close, which made her feel a little awkward for a moment.

However, Kiyokawa Xiang would not do such a thing as ignoring the people present. He immediately turned sideways and introduced Aine to Xiangzi:

"This is Chihaya Aine, a friend I just met."

"Really?" Shoko gave Aine a polite smile, bowed slightly, and said, "Hello, Chihaya-san. My name is Toyokawa Shoko. I'm happy to teach you."

“Thank you for your guidance.” Aine also quickly returned the greeting.

So elegant... After meeting three girls in a row who didn't look like the classic image of high school girls, Aine was a little skeptical. Could it be that in the two months she had been in London, all Japanese high school girls had become so distinctive?

Chapter 05 Deliberate Ignorance

"Chihaya, are you also in Class B? If not, you should hurry to your classroom now." Xiangzi kindly reminded.

"Oh, shit." Aiyin looked embarrassed. She had already delayed for too long. Her original plan of getting to the classroom early to prepare in advance had been ruined.

"I'm leaving first! Xiaoxiang!" Aiyin was very anxious, but running was not allowed in the corridor, so she could only hurriedly walk away, saying as she walked, "I'll come find you when I'm free—"

After watching Aiyin walk away and disappear around the corner, Xiangzi said with some surprise: "Although she looks a little impatient, she actually pays attention to details."

Even in such a hurry, he still remembered to abide by the rules. Although the posture of walking fast, wanting to run but not daring to run, was too awkward and not elegant, it also gave Xiangzi a good impression.

At this time, the two of them turned around and walked into the classroom. After saying sorry to the teacher for being a little late, the teacher also waved his hand kindly. After all, there was still some time before they were really late. As a teacher, he just needed to confirm the students' location and safety.

After asking the two people's names, the teacher pointed to the seats assigned to Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi. The two of them happened to sit at the front and back tables, in the back row by the window, with Qingchuan Xiang in front and Xiangzi in the back.

"Ah, it's Xiaoxiang! You're assigned to this class too?!"

"Good morning, Kiyokawa-san."

Just as Aiyin had thought before, Hanqiu was a comprehensive school, and Qingchuan Xiang was directly promoted to high school from Hanqiu Junior High School. Naturally, many classmates knew Qingchuan Xiang, and it seemed that they had a very good relationship. When Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi were walking towards their seats, almost every student who noticed Qingchuan Xiang would happily greet her.

Qingchuan Xiang also smiled and waved and nodded in response.

However, Xiangzi was a complete stranger to them. However, her beautiful appearance and lady-like temperament also attracted many people to look at her a few more times. However, there was a more eye-catching Qingchuan Xiang now, so no one talked to Xiangzi.

Xiangzi was actually happy that not many people knew her. Now Xiangzi still felt lucky that he didn't run into Lixi who studied in Yuqiu during junior high school.

It was not until the two of them sat down that the constant greetings gradually subsided.

"Xiang is really popular." Xiangzi looked at Qingchuan Xiang in front of him, and observed Xiang from the back, which was a rare perspective. Her pearly gray hair was carefully tied up at the back of her head, and her neck was covered with a layer of fine sweat. The hair near her neck was already wet.

"It's not easy to get to this level~" Qingchuan Xiang turned her head to look at the window outside as soon as she sat down. She was very happy to be assigned a seat directly by the window.

Just thinking about it now makes Qingchuan Xiang look forward to it, as he rests his head on his arms while it rains and looks at the rain outside.

"Besides being popular, Xiang also seems to like making friends?"

"Have it?"

"In such a short time since arriving at school, Xiang has already gotten to know Chihaya-san, and even made an appointment to see you when she's free." Xiangzi recalled Chihaya Aine's appearance. "Although Chihaya-san is also quite outgoing, Xiang must have taken the initiative to communicate with her to establish such a close relationship, right?"

"Hmm." Qingchuan Xiang did not comment and asked, "Xiangzi, what do you think of Aiyin?"

Xiangzi frowned, not knowing why he asked himself this question. Qingchuan Xiang probably also knew that he didn't have the mind to make deep friends right now, and it was enough as long as he had a decent relationship with the people around him.

But Xiangzi still answered Xiang: "She is very cheerful and outgoing, but she also maintains the appropriate social distance and does not offend others. I only interacted with her for a short time, and these are the only impressions I can give."

"So Xiangzi, you also think Aine has a good personality, right?"

"Ah."

That's really good. Qingchuan Xiang took a sip of the soup in the thermos cup. The aroma attracted the students in front of him and they couldn't help but look back.

Maybe Aine can really become good friends with Deng.

At this point, Qingchuan Xiang hadn't thought of considering Aine as the key to forming a band, but judging from the strong social skills and caring heart of Aine that he had discovered so far, perhaps she could really become Xiao Deng's friend...

On the first day of reporting, the first thing the teachers did was to talk about the school rules and regulations and ask the students to introduce themselves.

The process passed uneventfully, and then the head teacher of this class began to give each student a small red flower to wear on their chest. This was a blessing to the freshmen. Later they would take the red flowers to the auditorium to listen to the freshman speech for the new semester.

The students filed out of the classroom. Qingchuan Xiang also took his thermos cup and walked side by side with Xiangzi, slowly moving forward with the crowd. But suddenly a "ah" sounded behind them.

Although it was just a very soft "ah", you couldn't even tell whether the person who made the sound wanted to talk to someone or it was an accidental sound, but Qingchuan Xiang and Xiangzi both reacted immediately and realized that the "ah" was directed at them.

Xiangzi was very familiar with this voice; it was the lead singer of CRYCHIC, Deng Takamatsu.

Why is she here? Deng Junior High School shouldn't be in Yuqiu. No, it's a pre-university school, but transfer students are rare compared to direct admission students, but they're not uncommon... But why Deng...

Xiangzi's mind was a little confused. If he had met Lixi here, Xiangzi would not have lost his composure like this. Although Lixi was impulsive and spoke directly, it was more likely that after scolding Xiangzi a few times, she would take the initiative to stay away from Xiangzi and would not take the initiative to speak when they met.

But the lamp...

In the end, Xiangzi couldn't help it and turned around, and saw Gao Songdeng's "weak" eyes.

Xiangzi gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, turned his head abruptly, and didn't even care about Qingchuan Xiang. He quickened his pace and left, and soon disappeared from the view of the lights in the bustling crowd.

Qingchuan Xiang looked at Xiangzi helplessly as he walked away. Instead of following him, he walked back against the flow of people and came to the side of the lamp.

"Um...Xiao Deng, what's wrong with you?"

However, there is already someone next to Deng who, although he doesn't know the situation, is trying to comfort Deng who is standing still. It is Chihaya Aine, whom Kiyokawa Xiang was thinking that might become friends with Deng.

Are these two in the same class? Qingchuan Xiang didn't expect Aine to connect with Xiao Deng so quickly, and it seemed that Aine was quite concerned about Deng. But maybe it was simply because of Aine's personality that she couldn't let go of Deng's current poor condition?

After seeing Qingchuan Xiang coming, Aiyin leaned close to Xiang's ear and whispered, "Xiao Xiang, do you and Xiangzi know Xiaodeng? She was stunned when she saw you two just now, and why did Xiangzi turn around and walk away?"

Qingchuan Xiang rubbed the thermos cup with his hand for a few times, thinking about what to say, and finally could only say one sentence:

"Forget about that weird girl in front. She and Xiao Deng don't have any grudges, I guess."

Chapter 06 Threesome

"Little lamp?"

The fact that Xiangzi directly avoided him dealt a big blow to Xiaodeng. Xiaodeng had already blamed himself for Xiangzi's withdrawal from the team, and now his current behavior "confirmed" his guess.

"Tears?!" Aiyin saw Xiao Deng burst into tears and quickly searched her pockets. Just when she took out her handkerchief, she found that someone was one step faster.

Qingchuan Xiang stood directly in front of Deng. Deng was 155 cm tall, and Qingchuan Xiang was about 3 or 4 centimeters taller than Deng. At this time, he looked at Deng with a slightly condescending attitude, blocking Deng's line of sight that was originally looking at Xiangzi.

Tears blurred Deng's vision, making it impossible for her to see the scene in front of her. Suddenly, a figure stood in front of her. Among the brewing water droplets, only a rough outline was fluctuating with the ripples of tears.

Is Xiangzi back?

Xiao Deng stared blankly at this dreamlike illusion, hoping that Xiangzi didn't hate him and would come back again. However, a voice in his heart kept reminding him that Xiangzi had just left resolutely without looking back.

The figure in front of him moved, getting closer and closer to him. He gently raised his hand and stroked his face with four fingers.

The man's hands were very cold, and the sudden contact made Deng tremble involuntarily. He subconsciously wanted to bend down slightly and curl up his body, but then he became familiar with this feeling, which soothed his previous shock.

Four fingers were placed on Deng's face and fixed in position, then the thumb gently touched the corner of Deng's eye, causing Deng to subconsciously close his eyes. The eyelids squeezed and deformed the liquid, and finally the overflowed part flowed out and wet the man's fingers.

The other person didn't care about his wet fingers, and began to gently wipe Deng's tears with his thumb pressed on the corner of his eye. His fingertips rubbed softly and slowly, rubbing against Deng's long eyelashes. Deng resisted the urge to twitch his eyelids, and let the other person wipe his tears over and over again, once, twice, and three times.

Each gentle wipe made Deng feel more at peace. He stopped only when his fingers were soaked with tears and continued wiping was no longer enough to clean away the remaining tears.

Deng then opened his eyes, his eyes still a little wet, but he finally saw the person in front of him clearly.

From the perspective of the lamp, the last few stubborn tears in the eyes, surrounded by the sudden appearance of the girl in front of him, seemed to jump out from his own tears.

"Xiao Xiang...?"

"I knew Deng didn't see me." Qingchuan Xiang responded with a gentle smile, making a simple joke to lighten the atmosphere. "After all, Xiao Deng's thinking is like a single-threaded CPU..."

Before he could finish his words, Qingchuan Xiang suddenly felt his hand being grabbed and pulled down tightly, as if to confirm his existence.

"Xiao Xiang, will it disappear like bubbles..."

Is it like foam? It seems pretty, right?

Although Qingchuan Xiang wanted to say this, she stopped herself. She had a feeling that if she dared to say this, she might be hugged and not allowed to leave...

"Isn't Xiao Deng holding my hand right now?"

Qingchuan Xiang lifted up her tightly clasped hands, letting Deng see the combination of her own hand and Xiang's hand.

This was indeed quite effective, allowing Deng's rapid breathing caused by crying to slowly calm down, and the moist touch brought by the physical contact directly broke the negative and dark imagination.

Seeing that Xiao Deng seemed to have calmed down, Qingchuan Xiang turned to look at Aine who was asking, "What about me?" "Aine, Xiao Deng might need to borrow your handkerchief, okay? Wiping with my hands still doesn't seem to get it clean enough."

"Okay." Aine was suddenly called. It turns out that I also have something to do here. I handed the handkerchief to Xiao Deng, but I found that although Deng mentioned Aine as Qingchuan Xiang, he also looked at me.

However, her single-threaded way of thinking made it easy for her to forget to deal with previous tasks when she moved on to new ones.

At this time, Deng's hands were still holding Qingchuan Xiang, and both hands were too busy to take Aine's handkerchief, but Deng and Qingchuan Xiang were looking at Aine, as if waiting for Aine to take action.

Eh, do you want me to wipe Xiao Deng’s tears directly like Xiao Xiang did just now?

How can someone who just met for a short time do such an intimate thing all of a sudden? It's only the first day!

But it seemed like the current atmosphere made it seem like she had no choice but to do so... Xiaodeng had already noticed in the previous class that she was a little dazed and easily immersed in her own world, but could it be that Xiaoxiang couldn't sense it at all? The weird atmosphere between Xiaodeng and her, everyone around them was secretly looking over here when they passed by!

Aiyin tremblingly took the handkerchief and wiped away the last bit of tears from Deng.

Deng finally reacted, his face flushed slightly, he lowered his head and whispered to Aine, "Thank you, Aine."

"Okay, let's go. We still have to go to the auditorium to listen to the speech." Qingchuan Xiang continued to walk forward, but found that Deng was still holding her hands with both hands. "Deng, this is not convenient for you to walk, right?"

Xiao Deng hesitated for a moment, and finally just let go of one hand, while the other hand still stubbornly held Qingchuan Xiang's hand and refused to let go.

Xiao Deng is so clingy. Qingchuan Xiang thinks that this is probably because Xiao Deng's dependence on Xiangzi has increased after being ignored by Xiangzi just now.

The atmosphere between the two of them is so good, could it be that they have that kind of relationship?!

Aine suddenly felt like an outsider for some reason, and looked at Xiaodeng in a daze. She had always shown little interaction with the people around her when she first arrived in Class A, but now she was so proactive in holding Qingchuan Xiang's hand and was unwilling to let go.

But Xiaoxiang didn't seem to have any special reaction. Although she was holding hands, she remained calm. Could it be that this was just Xiaodeng's unrequited love?

And it seems that Xiao Deng's sudden depression was due to that classmate Xiangzi who acted like a young lady...

Did I witness some complicated relationship?

"Ain." Qingchuan Xiang suddenly called Ain, interrupting Ain's increasingly rich and bloody imagination.

"Deng, help me get the kettle." Qingchuan Xiang handed the thermos cup to Deng and asked her to hold it for him. Then he actually extended his free hand to Aine, "Let's go, Aine."

It is not a good thing to ignore the people present when there are many people chatting. It will cause a lot of pressure on the third person. That's why Qingchuan Xiang suddenly asked Aiyin to help wipe the tears from the lamp with a handkerchief.

——Although part of the reason was that Qingchuan Xiang was worried that his attention would be drawn to Deng’s tears.

Now that Deng is holding her hand tightly and is unwilling to let go, Qingchuan Xiang should also give equal treatment to Aine on the other side.

"I...I don't need it." Ain wanted to refuse, but at this time Xiao Deng also turned around, and the hopeful eyes of the little animal stared at Ain.

"Anon-chan...is also a friend."

...Really!

So Xiang, Aiden and the other two continued walking hand in hand in a very conspicuous manner.

Although she wanted to attract attention, this kind of attention seemed to be different! Aine began to feel that she had gone too far on the first day of her new life...

Chapter 07: This is How You Should Treat the One You Love

Qingchuan Xiang, Aiyin, and Xiaodeng walked hand in hand until they reached the outside of the auditorium before letting go. They attracted a lot of attention along the way.

On the way, Aiyin was so ashamed that she didn't dare to look up to see the people around her staring at her, but she couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen to what people around her were talking about.
