Chapter 45 Xiang, his mind is full of only himself
Compared to Ruo Yemu's behavior of killing the target before weakening it to low health, producer Xiaoxiang, who was on his first day at work, was obviously more concerned about another issue.
"Xiao Mu...why are you here too?"
Finding that his manual operation did not seem to produce the expected effect, Ruo Yemu lowered his head and began to urgently retrieve the lines of the automatic AI substitute program that Xian Juanwei had previously input.
The three members of sumimi2+1 came to the conference table, sat down around Wakaba Mu, and looked at this girl who no one would have expected to appear here with different eyes.
"Xiao Mu?" Xiangzi called softly beside Wakaba Mu.
At this time, Ruoye Mu was quickly screening the automatic combo program left for her by Xianjuan Wei based on the highest priority judgment logic of "wanting to make Xiang happy".
"That night, Xianghe told me about the job he accepted."
"Minami-chan, I've been offered another movie and signed a contract with this agency."
"Mina-chan and Aaron both went overseas for filming recently, so I'm the only one left."
As he spoke, Ruo Yemu opened the tablet computer beside him and pointed at the cover picture of the internal network introduction document, which looked like a shrunken version of the old villa in Fengchuan. He clicked his finger and said:
"I don't want to live at home alone."
"Xiang, live together."
Although he still didn't quite understand the reasons why Xiaomu was waiting for him here, Xiangzi still sorted out a logical chain.
Minami arranged a role for Xiaomu → Xiaomu signed a contract with the agency → Xiaomu's parents went abroad → Xiaomu wanted to go and live with her.
Something seemed a little strange. Why was Xiao Mu able to wait here so precisely?
"Xiao Mu, don't you like the atmosphere of living alone at home?" Xiangzi asked, turning his head.
"Yeah." Ruoye Mu nodded slightly.
Xiao Mu is really... dishonest, and Xiangzi felt a little sad.
She herself has sunk too deep into the quagmire. If possible, she shouldn't involve Xiao Mu in this...
Especially when he saw the exterior picture of the villa displayed on the tablet computer, Xiangzi's determination became even stronger.
Xiangzi shook his head and said gently, "I don't want Xiaomu to spend money because of me."
"So, Xiang, do you want to come to my house?"
"No, of course not..."
"I don't want to stay in that house. Xiang, don't worry. You don't need to use my salary."
Wakaba Mutsu said calmly, turning his gaze to Chuhua who had been watching Xiangzi from the side.
"Chuhua knows the reason."
Chu Hua was stunned for a moment when his name was suddenly called, and then he quickly said: "Ah? Um... Um! Xiaoxiang, I was actually planning to introduce you..."
After Hua introduced the details of what Genjumaki Wei announced today, Toyokawa Shoko sighed, turned her head away and put her hand on her forehead.
"Does he really take the firm seriously? A firm operating this way can't possibly be profitable. It's losing cash flow every month, and it won't be long before its funding chain breaks."
"This is ridiculous...it's just playing house. Even if we succeed in building the firm, the cost won't be worth it!"
After a whole year of living on every penny, Xiaoxiang subconsciously began to count the money.
Chu Hua agreed in her heart, but at this moment she would never say something like "it won't last long".
Especially just now, without knowing why, she suddenly received an invitation from Wakaba Mu to "Chuhua will come too". Although she did not fully understand him, Chuhua still believed that he must have the same goal as her to "live out with Xiangzi".
Ruoye Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a moment he denied:
"He's just... like Crychic."
"Xiao Mu? What do you want to say?" Xiangzi didn't understand what the other party meant.
Ruoye Mu continued to explain: "Just like when Xiang founded crychic, Wei-jun never thought about making money from the agency..."
"He just wanted to be happy and didn't care about the firm's profits or losses."
"Xiang, are you happy in crychic? Even though the ticket sales from the live shows aren't enough to cover the cost of going to karaoke, Xiang has never cared..."
"!" As if the switch called "self-loathing" in his heart was accidentally pressed, Xiangzi turned his head slightly and moved his eyes away from Wakaba Mu.
"Okay, I get it, Xiaomu." Xiangzi interrupted his childhood sweetheart who seemed to be still gathering strength.
Ruoye Mu was silent for a moment, then picked up the previous topic again:
"Then, Xiang, do you want to move in together?"
"It doesn't require Xiang to pay."
At this moment, the highly sensitive Xiangzi was a little unsure whether her childhood sweetheart, whom she always thought was easy to understand, meant "you don't need to pay rent" in addition to "you feel sorry for him and save something for him".
Ruoye Mu watched Xiangzi's slightly changing facial expression and switched the page on the tablet from the room selection file to the intranet system homepage.
"Xiang, every employee can see this document."
“At least half of them will apply.”
"Is that so?"
Wakaba Mutsu turned his attention to the Sumimi duo.
Chu Hua quickly took the ball kicked by Mu:
"Rent in Tokyo is definitely a huge burden...it would be great if we could cut down on that expense."
"If Xiaoxiang can come with us, it would be convenient for us to practice for the audition even after finishing work at the agency, right?"
The absent-minded Mana was immediately met with the gazes of Wakaba Mutsu and Hatsuka at the same time.
"Ah...um..."
"So, Xiang." Wakaba Mu launched the attack again.
"We all share the same apartment, and Wei-jun won't spend a single yen more for you."
"Besides, he won't care."
----
In the evening, outside the office.
Mu and Xiangzi walked side by side towards the subway station.
"Xiao Mu, it's really because of me that you have so many things to say, right? Saying so much... must be very tiring and very stressful for you." Xiangzi lowered his head, his deep voice faintly revealing self-blame and shame.
"Attsu."
The little leather shoes made a knocking sound, and Ruo Yemu suddenly stopped and stood still, staring at Xiangzi, who was shrouded in a layer of low pressure with his amber eyes.
"Xiao Mu?"
Xiangzi also stopped and looked at the other person with a puzzled look.
After finishing reading the lines, Wakaba Mutsu's temperament became somewhat unfamiliar to Xiangzi.
She somewhat clumsily imitated the way someone had recited lines in front of her. Ruo Yemu's tone now had less of the coldness of a puppet and more of the liveliness and slight annoyance of an adolescent girl that made people unable to get angry.
"Xiang Zhenzhen, your mind is always thinking about yourself."
Wakaba Mu placed his left hand on his waist and slightly extended his left arm, which made Xiangzi stunned for a moment - she could not remember the last time Xiao Mu had taken such a slightly strong posture.
"I don't like living in that house."
"I like the feeling of living with Xiang. I don't have to do anything. I feel safe just by our side."
Recalling how someone finished reading the lines in front of her last night and told her, "With Xiangzi's personality, the only way to push her to achieve her goal is to be tough on her," Ruoye Mu raised her right hand and placed it on her chest.
"These are all my thoughts and wishes, not born out of pity for Xiang!"
"When Minami and Aron were here, I didn't like that house; when Minami and Aron left, I still didn't like that house."
"When Xiang left Fengchuan's house for his uncle, I liked living with Xiang; before Aunt Ruihui left, I also liked the feeling of being with Xiang!"
"From my childhood till now, my thoughts have never changed."
"It's only you who has changed, Saki!"
"Is this the first day Xiang knows that I don't like living in that house? Is this the first day Xiang knows that I like being with you?"
At this moment, Genmaki Yui's lines and actions surpassed Mori Minami's acting skills and descended upon Wakaba Mutsu at the same time.
"Not at all, Xiang, you've always known it. You knew it when you were little, and you know it now. This has always been my opinion."
"Why, why is Xiang now afraid to face me, and even refuses to accept the fact that I am only doing this to fulfill my own wish, but instead insists on being sentimental and thinking that it is all for you?"
"Xiang is now afraid of other people's opinions and judgments... He starts to doubt whether everything he sees or hears is directed at him."
"Don't think about yourself all the time. Even if I'm willing to do everything for Xiang, don't think that everything I do is for you, Xiang..."
Chapter 46 Don't Let Me Down
"Xiao...Xiao Mu?"
Xiangzi took two steps back. Behind her slightly dull expression was her bewildered state of mind.
It's been a long time since Xiao Mu talked so much...
It's been a long time since I expressed such strong emotions...
But...it was me who made Xiaomu like this?
"Xiang, what are you worried about? Why don't you want to live with me?"
In the evening, the shadow of the office building next door covered Wakaba Mu's upper body, which brought further oppression to Xiangzi, who could not see the look in Wakaba Mu's eyes.
Xiangzi turned his head to look at the setting sun that was about to disappear at the end of the horizon, biting his lips lightly:
"Xiao Mu also knows that father needs my care. I can't leave him, so..."
"That's not an excuse, Xiang. I'm not going to talk to you anymore."
"Eh?"
"Uncle doesn't need to sleep under the same roof with Xiang anyway."
Wakaba Mutsu said something very remarkable in a calm voice.
"Xiao Mu...what are you talking about?"
"Well……"
The shadow covered Wakaba Mu's evasive gaze. After a moment, Wakaba Mu's courage to "give Xiang a happy life" overcame the shame of the line itself, and he continued:
"Xiang, what exactly does uncle need you to do?"
"...I'm the only one my father has now. He needs my company and he needs me in many places. Xiao Mu, you saw how dejected he looked when he went to buy some wine downstairs. If I weren't by his side, I really don't know if he would..."
"Xiang's idea is wrong."
"Xiao Mu?"
Wakaba Mu took two steps forward, letting her figure be shrouded in the dark yellow afterglow again. Her calm expression and eyes made Xiangzi, who was used to her worried and submissive look, feel unfamiliar.
The lines that Xianjuanwei had demonstrated to her still remained in her mind, but now, she felt that the boy's performance was not enough to express the heartache and sadness that Xiang had brought her over the past year.
"Xiang, let me recount what each day of Xiang's year was like."
"Before 4:30, I'd get up, wash up, and eat the cold food I'd prepared the day before, or borrow a microwave from the convenience store downstairs. I'd pick up the newspaper and get home to change clothes about an hour before school started in Haneda, so I could catch the early train and avoid being late. Later, Xiang would sometimes pick up the late-night newspaper delivery shift to get enough sleep."
"It's at Yugaoka, during school hours."
"After school, during my club break, I work customer service, fielding questions from grumpy or surly customers. There are some very easygoing customers, but they're rare. I usually leave around 4 p.m."
"After that, I sometimes do jobs like housekeeping that don't require me to show my face in unknown public environments."
"Between seven and nine, I go home. On the way home, I buy discounted bento or food at a convenience store. When I get home, I clean up my uncle's bottles and the mess in the room."
"After that... probably for the scholarship for Haneda, I studied hard until bedtime, and then used sleep to replenish my energy before the next day of exhaustion."
