Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

In Qingchuan Xiang's judgment, Su Shi longed for the family-like warmth in the band, so she always believed that Su Shi would be willing to join the band in the end.

But what Qingchuan Xiang didn't expect was that Su Shi wanted more than just to join a band. What she really wanted to do was to get CRYCHIC back intact, back to the band led by Xiangzi, moving forward together as a community of shared destiny.

Is this why Su Shi is so persistent in wanting to find Xiangzi? Does Su Shi really value Xiangzi so much? Of course she values Xiangzi, after all, Xiangzi is the one who brought the band to Su Shi, but it is CRYCHIC who truly saved Su Shi. She loves the whole group, so she has played a motherly role in the band from the beginning, and will try her best to mediate everyone's conflicts for the sake of harmony among the band members.

And now, a person who shouldn't have appeared on the road to restructuring CRYCHIC.

Sushi's fingers began to play with her hair again. She was thinking about why Aine was here.

But before figuring out that reason, there were more important things to do. Su Shi pressed her fingers together, her tone becoming increasingly gentle: "Excuse me, can I join your band?"

It was Aine who answered Su Shi's request, because the current band members were her and Xiao Deng. If Deng was not there, it would naturally be Aine who answered.

"Hey, is it really okay?"

Although he was a little unhappy about Su Shi's behavior of directly grabbing Qingchuan Xiang's hand, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that he had done these things many times... After all, Xiao Xiang was really comfortable to touch, and it was cool in the hot summer, just like touching a piece of ice that was slowly oozing water.

Moreover, Su Shi is the eldest lady in the Moon Forest. In this case, the members of her band are all extraordinary people: a young lady, a little mascot like Deng who is loved by everyone, and herself, the future shining star!

If we can cooperate with Xiao Deng to bring Qingchuan Xiang in someday, then we can truly be called a dream team!

"Of course, Su Shi is very welcome to come too!" Thinking of this, Aine enthusiastically agreed to Su Shi's request. After agreeing, she remembered that she didn't even know what instrument Su Shi played. "Hehe, but what instrument does Su Shi play?"

What I want to ask is Xiaoxiang, why did this noisy pink-haired scoundrel take the floor without permission? Su Shi thought to herself, but didn't show it on the surface: "I play the bass."

With Aiyin's limited understanding of the band, she actually wasn't very clear about Bass's position in the band. She only remembered that when they were performing in junior high school, Bass was the one with a very low presence, and she thought that he wouldn't steal her limelight.

"That way, we can add two more people to the band. That should be enough for a band, right?" Aiyin turned to look at Kiyokawa Xiang and asked, "Guitar, bass, drums, and a lead singer. I've seen a lot of bands with similar setups."

"The keyboard in a band is also very important." This time it was Su Shi's turn to answer, "A good keyboard player can enrich the timbre and harmony of the band's songs, make up for the lack of vocal range, and even serve as the lead instrument when needed. If we can have a keyboard player, it will add a lot of color to the band."

How could Aiyin understand all this? She was completely frightened by Su Shi’s series of words. Is the keyboard player so important?

Qingchuan Xiang knew what Su Shi was thinking, and she almost wrote the words "find Xiangzi back" on her face. From then on, Qingchuan Xiang also confirmed that her previous hope that Su Shi would calm down and eliminate some of her obsession with finding Xiangzi had failed.

"Well, what's Xiaoxiang's opinion? Can I join the band?"

Although Aine's consent has been obtained, for Su Shi, Kiyokawa Xiang's opinion is naturally more important.

"As long as Aine has made her decision," Qingchuan Xiang smiled back. However, Aine noticed something was wrong. She felt that Xiang had suddenly become quite quiet and seemed to be losing interest.

"Is that so?" Su Shi took this as Qingchuan Xiang's agreement, and also deduced some other meaning from this answer.

It seems like the band is now led by Ain, and Xiaoxiang seems to be following Ain's opinions completely. Could it be that it was not Qingchuan Xiang who proposed to form the band, but the appearance of Ain prompted Qingchuan Xiang to think about returning to the band, which is why this situation occurred?

I raised Aine's importance a little bit in my mind. It seems that I can't let Aine quit the band as easily as I thought at the beginning.

The three people had different thoughts, but on the surface they all seemed to be quite harmonious. So they went upstairs together and walked to RiNG's small coffee shop.

Fortunately, Lixi was at the front desk, apparently cleaning the table.

When he heard the door of the coffee shop open, Li Xi looked up and stopped what he was doing.

"Why are you here together?" Li Xi frowned.

When they met, the first question was to confront Aiyin directly. She couldn't do it anymore, so she quietly tugged at the corner of Qingchuan Xiang's clothes and said, "She's so fierce."

"She was just a little confused about Sushi and I coming together, and she acted like she was unhappy. That's just Riki's style."

Qingchuan Xiang had no problem controlling the volume of his voice at all. Not to mention Su Shi who was standing next to him, even Li Xi heard what Qingchuan Xiang said and laughed out loud.

“This is also a feature.”

Li Xi simply ignored Qingchuan Xiang and continued to concentrate on his original work. Su Shi, who was worried that Qingchuan Xiang would quarrel with Li Xi, was relieved.

The three of them found an empty seat and sat down. Seeing that Li Xi was still busy and didn't want to pay attention to them, Qingchuan Xiang waved his hand and said, "Li Xi, order!"

"..." Looking at Qingchuan Xiang who greeted him with a smile, Li Xi actually thought of this pretty face last time, crying uncontrollably.

Li Xi picked up the notebook and pen for recording the order, and walked quickly to the three-person seat. Without a smile, he was completely unqualified as a waiter. He asked neatly, "What would you like to order?"

Looking closely, she was an incredible beauty. After Li Xi came closer, Aine took a closer look at her face. She was also amazed by Li Xi's deep purple eyes and the teardrop mole at the corner of her eyes.

When CRYCHIC chooses band members, does they consider appearance?

Chapter 33 This is the band of Aiyin Group

"I want the usual." Su Shi smiled, but he didn't look like he was going to order seriously.

This way of ordering caused Li Xi to raise an eyebrow and sigh softly, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he wrote it down in his notebook. As former bandmates, he knew what they liked to drink and talk about when they were together, even if he didn't know them well.

Su Shi's smile became even brighter. She liked these small details very much. They made her realize that even if the band disbanded, the marks left by the past would still exist in everyone's hearts and would not be forgotten or turned into nothingness. This made Su Shi feel extremely at ease.

"What's the old style?" Aine looked at the wide variety of drinks on the menu. There were already several kinds of black tea. She didn't know what to choose for a moment, so she was curious about other people's choices.

Su Shi did not answer the question herself, but looked at Qingchuan Xiang with expectant eyes. It was not a common behavior to do such a thing when Aine was asking a question. Aine could not help but look at Qingchuan Xiang as well, thinking that something had gone wrong with Qingchuan Xiang.

But Qingchuan Xiang did nothing. There was no nostalgic emotion like the old members reunited, nor did she talk about various drinks like before. She just sat there, one elbow on the table, her face supported by the back of her hand, her face calm, even a little... indifferent in Aine's opinion.

The icy coldness only lasted for a short moment. After Su Shi looked at her, Qingchuan Xiang immediately regained a certain smile, as if she had just been distracted.

Kiyokawa Xiang has been acting strange since just now...Aine thought to herself.

"It's hot Earl Grey tea. Sushi often orders this."

"Well, Xiaoxiang really remembers it clearly."

"I see..." Although it was Aiyin who asked the question in the beginning, she now looked at Qingchuan Xiang with some worry, unsure if the feeling just now was just an illusion, "Then what would Xiang like to order?"

"I'll just order a cappuccino, just as a homework check." Qingchuan Xiang had completely lost his previous indifference. When he mentioned cappuccino, he looked at Li Xi with a sly smile.

"..." Li Xi himself did not intend to mention the fact that Qingchuan Xiang cried here before. As a result, Qingchuan Xiang ordered another drink that he made for her that day. While writing down Qingchuan Xiang's choice, he said unhappily, "I hope you won't be like last time this time. I won't care about you anymore."

"How heartless—" Qingchuan Xiang accused Li Xi of turning his back on her, "It was Li Xi who made me cry in the first place."

"Lixi made Xiaoxiang cry?" "Huh?"

These words shocked the other two people present. Not to mention Aine, even Su Shi had never seen Qingchuan Xiang cry, and it was actually Li Xi who made Xiao Xiang cry?

Although Lixi has always been very strict and can't speak, which makes it easy for people to think that she is a very aggressive person, Xiaoxiang has always been able to get along well with Lixi. In addition to Xiaoxiang's ability to always do her own things well, another point is that no matter what is said to Qingchuan Xiang, she is like a vast ocean, taking in all the words, and then remaining calm, rippling at her own pace.

"Did Li Xi hit Xiao Xiang...?" Su Shi asked uncertainly. Although the possibility was very low, it was not impossible.

"Tsk, how is that possible." Li Xi was unhappy and shocked. He glared at Qingchuan Xiang. This guy was talking like that on purpose. He put away the notebook and pen and turned around to go back to the workshop.

“Wait, I haven’t ordered yet!” Aine hurriedly shouted, trying to stop Li Xi, “I want a cappuccino too!”

Then Li Xi disappeared behind the workshop door as if he hadn't heard it.

"Did she hear it?" Aiyin muttered, but was ignored directly. This was too rude. "It's really like Xiaoxiang said, so irritable."

"Don't worry, you'll see her coming over with three drinks in a little while, with a sullen face."

"Lixi has a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

It was like this again, the only thing she didn't understand, the only thing she couldn't say, the feeling of being left out. Aine slumped over the table in frustration. If the band only ended up with members of that CRYCHIC, then what was the point of her existence? Wouldn't it be better to just let the old members use this opportunity to reunite?

"But if Aine doesn't like Riki, you can just give up on having her as a band member."

Aiyin raised her head, which was lying on the ground, and met Qingchuan Xiang's blue eyes. She knew that her little thoughts had been seen by Qingchuan Xiang again, but she did not feel uncomfortable at all.

On the other side, when Su Shi heard this, the smile on his face froze.

"Is it really possible?"

"Since this is the band you wanted to form, the members are of course up to you. If you're worried about Deng's opinion, you can put the recruitment process on hold for now and make a decision after talking to Deng clearly."

This is my band...Ain chewed on these words carefully, knowing that Qingchuan Xiang had always been helping her to form a band. She once again deeply realized this fact, which made Aiin feel at ease and felt a touch of warmth in her heart.

"I don't know that Li Xi well enough yet, so there's no need to rush into making a decision." Aiyin sat up straight again. "And thank you Xiao Xiang for helping me form a band."

Qingchuan Xiang waved his hand. After all, helping Aiyin to form a band was not purely out of good intentions from the beginning, but also had certain selfish motives.

But Su Shi remained silent for a long time. He placed his hands on his legs under the table, gently fiddling with his fingers, but his heart was filled with waves.

Why do you say that you can give up looking for Lixi to join the band... Doesn't Xiaoxiang want to get CRYCHIC back?

No, the leader of this band is this pink-haired girl who suddenly appeared. Qingchuan Xiang provided her with the band members she could find, so Xiao Xiang must still be willing to form a band with everyone, but now the power to recruit members is in the hands of this Aiyin.

Su Shi asked, "Why did Aine want to form a band? Did you invite Deng and Xiaoxiang to join the band?"

"Everyone around me at school is playing in a band, and girl bands seem to be very popular right now, so I want to give it a try."

Aiyin smiled and took Qingchuan Xiang's hand. "Xiao Xiang told me all this. It was thanks to Xiao Xiang that we were able to successfully get Xiao Deng to form a band together."

"Oh, I see." Su Shi clasped his hands together and rested his chin lightly on his hands. He already had some ideas in his mind.

Chapter 34 Ugly

After waiting for a while, Li Xi came over with a tray of drinks. Just as Qingchuan Xiang said, there were three drinks neatly placed on it.

He placed the black tea and coffee in front of the right people in turn. When he gave it to Qingchuan Xiang, Li Xi looked at the cappuccino, whose latte art was obviously more elaborate than Aine's coffee. Li Xi used a little strength and "smashed" it in front of Qingchuan Xiang, making some noise.

"Yeah." It was too difficult for Lixi to say "please enjoy your meal" like other employees who served guests. Especially when she was talking to acquaintances, she was more casual. Just a light exhalation through her nose was considered as a gesture to the guests.

Qingchuan Xiang couldn't help but mutter, "Really? If this were in my coffee shop, I would definitely give you a big X for your work attitude, and then I would have to personally teach you what etiquette is."

Li Xi rolled his eyes beautifully—those gorgeous purple eyes could have been just as impressive even when performing such an unromantic gesture. It was even more regrettable that they were on Li Xi's face...

"I don't think you're very particular about etiquette normally, like right now."

"I'm referring to the qualities of a bartender. Even if you're just serving tea and water, that's still part of what a bartender should do." Qingchuan Xiang was really careful about this. "What happened here last time was an accident. I'll definitely correct you when I get the chance."

The angry Qingchuan Xiang pointed at Lixi with his finger in the air to express his attitude, and then looked carefully at the cup of cappuccino that had just been served and was still emitting the mellow aroma of coffee beans and milk.

"Huhu, I can feel it just by looking at it. The improvement is indeed huge." Qingchuan Xiangke has not forgotten the inferior feeling he got when he drank the coffee made by Lixi. After all, it was something that directly stimulated him to cry, and it is difficult to forget it.

Of course, I'm not worried about that kind of situation happening again this time. Compared to the first time, I have never experienced such an emotional impact before, so I reacted so violently. After I was prepared, I would not have such a big reaction.

Moreover, the emotions contained in the drink depend on the mood of the maker when making it. As long as I don't deliberately induce Lixi to think in that direction, the drinks made by Lixi will at most have only a slight sense of inferiority.

The last time, it can be said that Qingchuan Xiang deserved it and shot himself in the foot.

"You're saying that even though you haven't even had a drink yet." Li Xi was happy to receive the compliment, but he was still unforgiving. He turned around to hide the corners of his mouth that were curled up, and prepared to leave.

“Ah, please wait a moment.” Aine suddenly said.

"What's wrong?" Li Xi turned around.

"My name is Aiyin, and I'm forming a band. Would you like to join?"

Li Xi was silent for a moment. Did she want to join a band? The answer was of course yes, but she wanted a band with a light. Only the lyrics of the light could bring her a shock that touched her heart.

Moreover, she had just met this girl named Aine. She must have been introduced by Qingchuan Xiang or Su Shi.

"Do not……"

Li Xi was about to refuse, but Su Shi spoke at the right moment. She knew exactly how to attract Li Xi: "Xiao Deng has also joined the band."

"!" Li Xi turned around quickly, "Is this true? But, wasn't Deng very hurt because of what happened before..."

"Yes, Deng agreed to form a band with me." Although Aine didn't know what happened before, she was well aware of Deng's injury. She would often show signs of depression and loss, which made Aine and Qingchuan Xiang constantly comfort Deng that day. "It was also thanks to Xiang's help. Deng wanted to come with us today, but was delayed due to club matters."

"If Deng is willing to form a band again," Li Xi's expression softened, unusually, "then I'll join too."

"Great!" Aine cheered softly. It was really great that she had gathered members for two bands in one day.

Qingchuan Xiang looked at this silly child who was laughing so hard, and mourned for her in her heart. She hoped that she could withstand Li Xi's indiscriminate pressure. With Li Xi in the band, the intensity of the live performance would definitely increase, regardless of anything else.

Li Xi, who was very serious about everything, immediately got into the mood and began to ask about the band's affairs: "So who are the members in the band now, and what are their respective positions?"

Aiyin stretched out her fingers and pointed, "Xiaodeng is the lead singer, I'm the guitarist, Sushi is the bassist, and Xiaoxiang told me that Lixi is the drummer. So, we're almost done with this, right? Maybe in the future, as Sushi said, we might need to hire a keyboardist."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room immediately became wrong. After listening to Aine's words, Su Shi and Li Xi did not hear the name they thought would definitely be there, and they immediately turned their heads to look at that guy.

"Isn't Xiaoxiang going to join the band?" Su Shi clenched her hands, while Li Xi was simply a little surprised and raised his eyebrows.

Qingchuan Xiang took a sip of coffee and pretended to be busy.

"Xiao Xiang never said from the beginning that she wanted to join the band, even though she tricked Xiao Deng and me into it." Instead, Aiyin defended Qingchuan Xiang at this time, but the second half of the sentence turned into an accusation against Qingchuan Xiang. Obviously, Aiyin also hoped to take advantage of the fact that two of Xiao Xiang's old teammates were here, and maybe she could use this opportunity to convince Xiao Xiang.

Su Shi seemed a little anxious. If it wasn't a public place, she might have rushed to Qingchuan Xiang to question her.

"Why doesn't Xiaoxiang want to join the band? Is there some misunderstanding?"

"I'm simply not interested anymore. It has nothing to do with you, Su Shi." Qingchuan Xiang put down the cup, his tone calm, without any dissatisfaction, but this made Su Shi even more at a loss.

Su Shi never thought that the reason Xiao Xiang didn't want to join the band was simply because she "had no interest". If that was the case, what words should she use to pull Qingchuan Xiang back?

"But weren't we so happy when we were there...Xiangzi, Xiaomu, Lixi, Deng, and Xiaoxiang you."

Su Shi's voice became softer, and his eyes became more anxious and expectant, while Qingchuan Xiang also lowered his eyes and did not look at Su Shi.

Knowing you'd be like this is why I didn't want to join a band.

Qingchuan Xiang lowered his eyes not to avoid Su Shi's expectant gaze, but to prevent the disgust that was gradually fermenting in his heart from overflowing.

It's really ugly.
