Bai Qiu gave an embarrassed laugh and left first.

Unfortunately, Xiangzi's new band is still a trade secret.

Su Shi had no choice but to follow.

The two were not walking very fast.

At this moment, Su Shi slowed her pace slightly, gently touched her chin with her fair index finger, glanced sideways at Bai Qiu, and asked:

"So, who should be in charge of bass and who should be in charge of keyboards?"

"Oh, we forgot to discuss that earlier." Bai Qiu smiled and replied, "Actually, I'm fine with either, so why don't you decide, Su Shi?"

Su Shi felt a warmth in her heart: "Is that alright?"

Bai Qiu nodded without hesitation.

"Then I'll choose bass."

Without much hesitation, Su Shi quickly gave her answer.

Compared to the keyboard, she is more skilled at the bass, having experience playing the double bass.

Moreover, Bai Qiu looks even cooler playing the keyboard; it's better to leave this less noticeable instrument to her.

A slight smile appeared on her lips.

“Okay, then I’ll take care of the keyboard!” Bai Qiu assured him.

Then he suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, if Su Shi wants, we can take turns doing it occasionally."

“But Lixi might get angry if that happens.” Bai Qiu said with a hint of teasing.

"That's a good idea!" Nagasaki Motoyo couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, nodding slightly in agreement.

"Thank you for your hard work learning the keyboard recently, Su Shi."

"It's okay, it's not tiring at all!"

Su Shi glanced at Bai Qiu, blinked her beautiful eyes that were as blue as the ocean, and kept a sweet smile on her lips.

For her, the time she spent learning keyboard with Bai Qiu every night was an incredibly precious and beautiful memory.

Bai Qiu brought Su Shi back to his home.

Xiangzi was already preparing dinner.

Today it's Xiangzi's turn.

Su Shi stepped forward to help.

Bai Qiu is catching fish.

Not long after, at the dining table.

The two beautiful young female cooks then prepared dinner.

The dishes tonight seem to be more plentiful than usual, and with the cake that he and Su Shi specially bought as dessert, it looks like they're in for a hearty meal.

After setting out the bowls and chopsticks.

Xiangzi raised his head, his gaze first falling on Su Shi opposite him, and then turning to Bai Qiu.

A hint of hesitation flashed across Xiangzi's face as he said, "Bai Qiu, Su Shi, there's something I need to tell you. Um... I've found a new place to stay."

Chapter 193 A Parting Embrace

Su Shi let out a surprised sound.

She stared at Xiangzi for two seconds.

Does Xiangzi mean... he's moving away?

This left Su Shi speechless for a moment.

Although she occasionally had the thought that it would be better if Xiangzi moved away one day, so that she could carry out her plan to win over Bai Qiu.

But when the moment actually came, I felt a little reluctant to part with it.

After all, Xiangzi was one of her best friends.

Su Shi quite enjoyed spending time with the three of them during this period.

Bai Qiu also put down her chopsticks and glanced at Xiangzi with surprise.

Was it that sudden? No, it wasn't that sudden either...

Bai Qiu inexplicably recalled what Hong Xia had said to him earlier that day.

Bai Qiu felt relieved again.

Although he allowed Xiangzi to stay as long as he wanted.

But for Xiangzi, a girl, it wasn't really suitable. Once she found a suitable place to live, she would naturally leave.

But why do I feel a sense of loss? Xiangzi hasn't left yet!

Isn’t that good?

Bai Qiu asked, "So, when are you moving?"

"Tomorrow..." Xiangzi sighed slightly, forced a smile, and said to the two of them, "I've moved to a place that isn't too far away, I'll come back when I have time."

Xiangzi was also quite hesitant about whether or not to move out.

Moving meant ending her cohabitation with Bai Qiu, and she couldn't help but feel reluctant.

But in the end, the strong-willed Xiangzi hardened his heart.

Although she was willing to accept some of Bai Qiu's help, she did not want to rely on him forever.

Ave Mujica is currently only missing a bassist, and she is already discussing with her agency to find a suitable one.

If she can get the band to debut quickly, she can get rid of her current situation and then express her feelings to Bai Qiu.

It's okay to work hard now for a happy future.

But the thought that after moving out, Bai Qiu and Su Shi would essentially be living together made all the more difficult.

Xiangzi was also a little worried that the two might develop feelings for each other.

Fortunately, Su Shi didn't seem to have any feelings for Bai Qiu during this time, so it seems she was overthinking things.

Su Shi was indeed just afraid of being alone and enjoyed the atmosphere of having someone by her side.

Bai Qiu and Su Shi nodded and smiled.

It's just moving house, it's not like we're facing life and death or anything.

“Then you must finish all the food tonight,” Bai Qiu said seriously.

The two girls exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Okay!"

After Su Shi returned, some time passed.

Bai Qiu finished showering and came out of the bathroom.

When Bai Qiu reached Xiangzi's room, he planned to tell Xiangzi that he could take a bath.

The door was ajar, not completely closed.

"Xiangzi, I'm coming in."

So Bai Qiu called out to Xiangzi to remind him, and then went inside.

"Ah... okay." Xiangzi replied subconsciously.

With a slight sense of joy, Xiangzi, who was squatting on the ground tidying up his luggage, stood up and looked at Bai Qiu's still slightly damp hair.

Xiangzi asked, "Are you done washing?"

"Hmm." Bai Qiu nodded, glancing at the luggage on the ground, before she could ask if she needed any help.

He was then excitedly hooked onto Xiangzi's arm.

"I have a gift for you."

"It's clothes."

Bai Qiu unexpectedly reached out and took the clothes; they were a pair of casual trousers and a T-shirt.

But how did Xiangzi know his size?

"Thank you, Xiangzi."

Xiangzi smiled brightly: "You have to try it out for me later!"

Bai Qiu was about to nod, but then gave a wry smile and said:

"Xiangzi, you should have told me sooner, so I could have prepared a gift for you. It's a bit too late now."

He gave the hand cream to Hailing last time, which meant he hadn't yet given Xiangzi his gift.

"I don't need it!"

Xiangzi smiled faintly, his face inexplicably turning red.

She has received the best gift.

Bai Qiu's T-shirt was placed at the deepest part of her suitcase.

Since he hadn't found an opportunity to return the money, Xiangzi decided to just let the mistake continue.

"Alright then." Bai Qiu sighed helplessly, then asked, "Is your luggage all packed? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's almost all packed up."

Xiangzi shook his head slightly, glanced at the luggage at his feet, and answered.

There weren't many items, but there were slightly more than when we arrived.

A 24-inch suitcase and two medium-sized bags were all of Xiangzi's belongings.

"Okay." Bai Qiu smiled with relief, but then added:

"But when you move tomorrow, shall I go with you?"

"Mm!" Xiangzi responded, a joyful smile returning to his face.

Looking at Xiangzi's happy face, Bai Qiu hesitated for a question she wanted to ask.

Seeing this, Xiangzi asked, "What's wrong?"

"Has your father contacted you since then?" Bai Qiu asked.

Upon hearing this, sure enough, Xiangzi's smile faded a bit, and his eyes dimmed slightly.

Xiangzi shook his head, looking disappointed. "No."

Bai Qiu nodded helplessly, clenched his fist, and said in a gesture of anger:

"Next time we'll go to your house and see. If he's still so depressed, I'll give him a good scolding, and if that doesn't work, I'll beat him up."

"Okay." Xiangzi couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

Bai Qiu also chose to change the subject.

He glanced at an exquisitely crafted doll on the bedside table, reminding Xiangzi:

"Don't forget the doll."

Xiangzi looked at the bedside table and stared at the doll for two seconds in a daze.

She smiled and said, "Yes, I won't forget."

Then, as if he had just thought of something, a glint of gold flashed in Xiangzi's eyes.

She suddenly bent down, picked up the doll, walked to Bai Qiu, and softly spoke:

"Bai Qiu, the doll... can you keep it safe for me?"

"Huh?" Bai Qiu looked at her in surprise. "This should be very important to Xiangzi, right?"

After all, it's an item placed on the bedside table.

"That's why I hope you can keep it for me," Xiangzi said, blinking.
