Crossover Anime: A Musical Anime - Lighthearted and Enjoyable

Since Xiangzi had said so, Bai Qiu didn't mince words.

Without hesitation, Bai Qiu took the doll from Xiangzi's hands and joked:

"Don't worry, Xiangzi, I'll also keep it on my bedside table and watch over it every day to make sure it stays in perfect condition."

"No, there's no need to be so dramatic." Xiangzi's face flushed slightly.

While saying this, he secretly hoped that Bai Qiu would do it.

Isn't that just like her watching Bai Qiu sleep?

For moving, I naturally chose to take a taxi, which took about half an hour.

It's a very ordinary one-bedroom apartment.

There's no elevator, but thankfully it's on the second floor.

So Bai Qiu helped Xiangzi carry his luggage upstairs and tidied it up a bit.

After a while, a few tiny beads of sweat appeared on the fair foreheads of both of them.

Xiangzi kindly handed over a tissue, which Bai Qiu took, wiped her face, and then got up to leave.

"Xiangzi, I'll be leaving now. Contact me anytime if you need anything."

"I'm going to visit Starry Night this afternoon."

Xiangzi nodded, a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

But the thought that we could still see each other at school made me feel a little better.

"Bai Qiu, wait a moment."

Just as Bai Qiu was about to step out of the room, Xiangzi's voice came.

"Hmm?" Bai Qiu stopped and turned around.

Before she could react, she was bumped by a force that was neither too strong nor too weak. A light and elegant fragrance wafted to her nose, and a warm and soft body was in her arms.

Although it was somewhat unexpected, there was no panic.

After all, they had hugged once before.

So Bai Qiu gently placed her hand on Xiangzi's incredibly thin back.

However, at that moment, Bai Qiu felt her vision obstructed, followed by a soft and moist touch on her left cheek.

It was as if two wet flower petals had gently fallen onto his face, but then vanished in an instant.

Bai Qiu's eyes narrowed slightly.

The hand that was on Xiangzi's back dropped.

Xiangzi then pulled away from his embrace.

Bai Qiu looked down and saw Xiangzi's face, flushed with the glow of the sunset, like a ripe apple, delicate and luscious.

Xiangzi lowered his head slightly, his voice barely audible: "This...this is a farewell hug."

Chapter 194 Music Festival

A farewell hug?

Xiangzi, you call this a farewell hug?

They didn't even mention the attack on him.

Xiangzi's audacious act was somewhat unexpected by Bai Qiu.

As he strolled leisurely down the road, he reached out and touched the spot where Xiangzi had attacked him earlier, his expression somewhat subtle.

I've almost forgotten how I left Xiangzi's house.

He must have been pushed out by the shy Xiangzi; it couldn't have been him running away in panic, could it?

Xiangzi is just lusting after his body!

However, Xiangzi did not take any further action.

If there's a next time, he'll definitely try to regain his position. This time, he'll let it go for now and not argue with Xiangzi.

Gazing into the distance with a resolute look in his eyes, Bai Qiu did not delve any further into the matter.

Now it's time to head to the next film set—Starry Night.

But before that, to express his gratitude for the end of the band, he went to the shopping street to buy a big cake to reward them.

2:30 PM, Shimokitazawa, under a sky full of stars.

Bai Qiu arrived on time.

At the round table in the corner, the band is holding a five-person roundtable meeting.

Meeting agenda: The matter of Bai Qiu joining mygo.

Although Bai Qiu's joining mygo is a done deal and has been unanimously agreed upon by the four girls, we can't just turn the page like this.

It was as if an invisible pressure was coming towards Bai Qiu.

“You’ve joined, mygo.” Yamada Ryo crossed his arms and looked at Shiraaki, saying softly, “Aki is happy, isn’t she?”

“Yes.” Kita Ikuyo nodded slightly, her tone tinged with a hint of wistfulness: “This day has come sooner than we expected.”

Goto Ichiri nodded repeatedly, making "uh-huh" sounds to indicate that what they said was absolutely right.

Hongxia didn't put any pressure on Bai Qiu; she just glanced at him with a helpless expression.

"Thank you everyone!" Bai Qiu smiled faintly and said sincerely, "So, to thank everyone for being so understanding, I prepared this."

As he spoke, as if by magic, he took out a beautifully packaged cake gift box from behind him and placed it on the round table.

Untying the ribbon and lifting the transparent lid, the cake, made of piled cream and decorated with fruit, instantly captured the eyes of the girls, resembling a castle.

Instantly, Bai Qiu felt the invisible pressure dissipate considerably, and gave Hong Xia a reassuring look.

"Oh, it's a cake!" Hongxia smiled at Bai Qiu. "Thank you."

But isn't Qiu a bit too good at making girls happy?

"Hmph, Aki." Yamada Ryo said coldly, her gaze involuntarily fixed on the cake. "You think you can bribe us like this?"

"Wow!" Kita exclaimed in surprise, "What a beautiful cake!"

At the same time, she quickly took out her phone to take pictures and record the beautiful moment.

Boqi stared in disbelief. The cake had many layers. Wiping away his tears, he said, somewhat moved:

"Waaah... I've never eaten cake with anyone other than my mom and dad."

Everyone cast sympathetic glances at Pochi.

"Alright, Yili, there will be many opportunities to eat cake together in the future," Hongxia said, patting Boqi on the back to comfort him.

“I didn’t mean to bribe you, this is to express my gratitude.”

Bai Qiu shook her head and answered "cold," while distributing paper plates and spoons.

Yamada Ryo snorted, but his hand didn't slow down at all as he took it.

Her meals seem to be getting better and better lately?

"But are two bands okay?" Kita asked doubtfully after taking the photos. "Won't it be too tiring? Can you manage the time?"

"Don't worry." Bai Qiu waved her hand, revealing a relieved smile. "I will manage my time well."

That sounds weird, like a scumbag's declaration.

The girls' expressions also became somewhat subtle as they listened.

Fortunately, at this moment, Hongxia started cutting the cake. With each slice, a triangular piece of cream was placed on each paper plate.

"Qiu dares to join mygo today, but what about tomorrow?" Liang mumbled, biting into a cake.

"Just eat yours," Bai Qiu retorted.

After delivering several cakes to Hoshika and Pa-san, Nijika returned to her seat and looked at Shiraaki, asking softly:

"Qiu, is there something you need to discuss with everyone today?"

“Hmm.” Bai Qiu nodded, then took out his phone and showed the four of them a page. “I want the End Band to participate in this.”

"Unconfirmed riot?"

Several girls crowded around Bai Qiu's phone screen, making puzzled noises as they repeated the question.

Soon, Kita excitedly exclaimed, "I saw this yesterday too!"

"Me too, I have some here too."

Goto Ichiri quickly raised his hand and took out a poster.

The poster is a promotional poster for an 'unconfirmed riot'.

Bai Qiu's eyes lit up, and she praised, "You've been a great help, Boqi-chan."

"Hehe, thanks!"

Riot (unconfirmed), a rock music event that is only open to teenagers.

The event process is mainly divided into four parts: demo review, online voting, performance review, and final review.

The final review was held in the form of a music festival.

The first place winner will receive a prize of 100 million yen.

The 'Unconfirmed Riot' event wasn't complicated, and Bai Qiu, who had done her homework beforehand, was there to explain it to her.

So it didn't take long for the four of them to get to know each other.

"What's everyone's decision? Are you going to participate?"

Bai Qiu's expression became more serious, and she looked at them, waiting for their answer.

Yili's lips trembled slightly as she spoke hesitantly:

"This... there should be a lot of people participating, right?"

“Yes, Yili.” Bai Qiu said softly, “But don’t worry too much. The first two processes are all done through online submissions, so you won’t see anyone.”

"You'll only see other bands in the last two stages."

If you can't stand out, you won't even see other bands.

But once she participated, Bai Qiu's goal was naturally to be number one.

The prize money is secondary; performing at the music festival will greatly increase the band's visibility.

"Besides, Ichiri, your skill level is definitely not a problem."

Bai Qiu looked at Yi Li with an encouraging expression.

"Then... I want to participate."

Goto Ichiri spoke slowly.

She already had this idea, otherwise she wouldn't have brought the poster with her.

He had been hesitant, but Bai Qiu had now solidified his resolve.

"Can we?" Hongxia opened her mouth and said, "I feel like there will be a lot of amazing bands..."

"But we're all the same age, and we're not bad off even if we quit the band, right?" Bai Qiu smiled nonchalantly, then pointed out:

"Our recent performances have received very positive feedback from the audience."

"If I can perform at a music festival, I might get noticed by an agency, which would bring me one step closer to my goal of debuting."

"Hmm... Qiu is right." Hongxia nodded, looking gently at everyone. "Then let's all participate?"

"I want to try my best too!"

Kita exclaimed, "I told my mother I was going to work hard for my dream!"

"Is it cold?" Bai Qiu looked at Liang, who was engrossed in eating.

Liang nodded. "I'm fine."
