Bai Qiu didn't seem to find anything wrong with it, and even gave Shiina Tatsuki a genuine smile.

"Because even so, Lixi wasn't defeated, but instead kept improving herself. If it were me..."

Bai Qiu paused, thought for a moment, and then said, "If it were me, I probably would have given up long ago."

“Kelixi is different. This kind of Lixi is outstanding and dazzling, so I admire Lixi very much.”

The blush on Shiina Riki's face extended all the way to her fair ears beneath her black hair.

After a long silence, she spoke softly, her lips trembling:

"Okay, I...I understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shiina Tatsuki quickly picked up the orange juice and took a big sip.

She felt she couldn't bear to listen anymore.

"Mm." Noticing that the other person's mood had improved, Bai Qiu nodded slightly.

"Maki is very good, but that's only now. Maybe one day she'll be surpassed by our Riki."

"How could such a thing be possible?" Shiina Tatsuki sighed, muttering to himself.

Although deep down she also wanted to surpass her sister and prove herself.

But the shadows that had haunted Lixi since childhood also made her realize the vast difference between herself and her sister.

"Tachiki, you are mistaken. Shiina Maki is nothing but a nobody."

Bai Qiu shook his head with one finger raised, then raised his voice, deliberately using a somewhat contemptuous tone to say:

"It's just that they were born in... and they're just a few years older than us, it's no big deal!"

Hearing Bai Qiu's deliberately funny words, Li Xi couldn't help but chuckle.

She still calls her older sister "Maki-nee" in front of her.

"Let's start by taking on the small music festival."

"It's not that simple," Shiina Tatsuki said helplessly.

"Lixi, let's stand on the music festival stage together." Bai Qiu suddenly stood up and stretched out her right hand to Lixi, who was still squatting on the ground.

"Let's conquer the audience with our music and surprise your sister."

Looking up slightly at Bai Qiu's eyes, Shiina Riki felt a strange tension creep into her heart.

Under the cover of night, she felt that Bai Qiu became even more radiant and captivating, making it impossible for her to look away.

This gradually made Li Xi's slightly bewildered gaze more confident.

"……it is good."

Li Xi raised her hand and gripped Bai Qiu's fingers tightly.

If Bai Qiu were there, it seems my sister wouldn't be invincible after all?

Clearly feeling the force coming from her hand, Bai Qiu smiled and pulled Li Xi up with all her might.

After getting up, the two of them patted the dust off their buttocks.

Suddenly remembering something, Lixi's face inexplicably turned red.

At that moment, accompanied by several loud noises, the distant sky was illuminated by a series of dazzling and colorful fireworks.

Li Xi remembered that he had originally planned to take Bai Qiu to see the fireworks.

A wave of regret and self-reproach washed over her.

Sorry, I missed the fireworks.

Bai Qiu shook his head and looked straight ahead. "It's fine, admiring it from here is about the same."

"Mmm," Li Xi replied shyly.

The two stood quietly in this spot, admiring the colorful fireworks blooming in the night sky.

Shiina Riki couldn't help but glance at Bai Qiu.

She realized that she really cared about Bai Qiu.

Even her escape today was partly because she didn't want Bai Qiu to know how terrible she was.

But even after Bai Qiu found out, she still admired her...

Li Xi blushed slightly.

However, it seems that the lamp also likes Bai Qiu.

Thinking of this, Shiina Tatsuki felt a little troubled and gave Bai Qiu a deep look.

Bai Qiu asked curiously, "Li Xi, why are you looking at me like that?"

But their eyes clicked.

It wasn't until the fireworks ended more than ten minutes later that Bai Qiu and Shiina Riki slowly left.

Chapter 209 Ai Yin openly and brazenly steals a house?

After watching the fireworks, Bai Qiu and Li Xi left the temple fair at around 10 p.m.

"Lixi, I'm going back now."

The streetlights at the crossroads illuminated the two of them. Bai Qiu, with his hands in his pockets, turned his head to look at the girl beside him.

Li Xi's house was just ahead, so there was no need for him to act as her protector and escort her home.

Moreover, Lixi's power is not to be underestimated.

"So fast?" Shiina Tatsuki thought to herself.

Seeing that Li Xi did not respond, Bai Qiu called out to her with a slight puzzlement.

"Okay! Let's go back."

Shiina Tatsuki hurriedly replied.

Then, realizing that her tone was a bit off, Li Xi looked slightly embarrassed.

"Sorry, I was a little distracted just now."

"It's nothing, please thank Maki-nee for me." Bai Qiu chuckled and shook her head, waving her hand and saying, "Bye-bye, Li Xi too."

Okay, bye...bye.

Shiina Riki answered softly, and seeing Bai Qiu turn to leave, she suddenly called out again:

"Wait...wait a minute, I'll take you to the station."

"Huh?" Bai Qiu stopped, then looked at Li Xi with amusement and said, "I'm not a lamp, I won't encounter any danger, you don't need to take me to the station."

"Lixi, you should go back soon too."

"......it is good."

A blush flashed across Li Xi's alluring cheeks.

I felt somewhat embarrassed and annoyed by my ramblings, and also a little regretful.

Li Xi pursed her lips and spoke:

"Then let me know when you get home."

Bai Qiu smiled: "Okay."

Watching Bai Qiu's figure gradually disappear into the distance.

Shiina Tatsuki sighed softly.

In the end, she still didn't ask the question that was on her mind: what did Bai Qiu think of the lamp?

What if Deng likes Bai Qiu, and Bai Qiu likes Deng?

She can't possibly steal the person Deng likes, can she?

"Huh? Did Bai Qiujun go back?"

The sudden sound startled Shiina Riki, causing her to dodge to the side.

"Is the reaction that strong?"

Shiina Maki blinked, somewhat stunned.

"when did you come?"

Shiina Tatsuki opened her eyes wide and couldn't help but ask.

"You've been here the whole time!" Maki smiled like an auntie. "How was the... cough, did the temple fair go smoothly?"

Li Xi guiltily looked away at the ground, and after a few seconds, whispered, "Thank you for your vote."

Meanwhile, Bai Qiu, who had already arrived at the station, was thinking about what kind of song to record for the second round of the music festival.

But suddenly I felt two pats on my back.

"Qiuqiu—"

Turning around, Bai Qiu heard Ai Yin's deliberately drawn-out voice, which carried a hint of resentment, and heard the tip of her nose slightly wrinkled.

"Aiyin? What a coincidence! What are you doing here?"

Bai Qiu was somewhat surprised and took the initiative to ask a question out of curiosity.

"I came to the temple fair with my former classmates."

Chihaya Aine closed the distance between them, staring intently at Shiraaki, and asked, "Shiraaki, what are you doing here?"

Although she asked the question, Aine already had a judgment in her heart.

Meeting Bai Qiu at the train station was a pleasant surprise, proving that the two of them were destined to be together.

But that also proves it.

The familiar figures she saw at the temple fair must be Bai Qiu and Li Xi.

"Hmph," Ai Yin hummed twice in her heart.

So if Bai Qiu answers honestly, that's fine. But if they lie and deceive her, it proves that they both have something to hide!

“I also went to the temple fair with Lixi.”

Bai Qiu pondered for a moment before answering under Ai Yin's seemingly intimidating gaze.

There's nothing to hide about this.

As long as we keep the fact that Lixi lost the little pearl a secret, everything will be fine.

Although it might be surprising to everyone if you find out that you went to the temple fair with Li Xi?

Even though she already knew, Aine couldn't help but express her surprise and doubt.

Why did you all go to the temple fair together?

Chihaya Aine widened her gray eyes, revealing her sharp little fangs, and her tone was sour.

Hmm...that's too cunning!

rikki!

She clearly wanted to go to the temple fair with them too.

"Because I was learning composition with Lixi today, and Lixi's older sister had something to do and couldn't go with her because she had two tickets, I went with Lixi instead."

Bai Qiu explained slowly.

Everyone knows that he studied composition with Li Xi.

"Huh? I see..."

Chihaya Aine's bright gray eyes lit up.

She nodded as if suddenly realizing something, temporarily suppressing her jealousy.

Li Xi's past attitude gave Ai Yin a sense of security.

Surely Li Xi wouldn't try to steal Bai Qiu from her?
