I want to see Aine every single day from now on.

Because she's my girlfriend.

PS: Back at my maternal grandfather's house, touching...

Chapter 148 Is it wrong to date all the band members?

Girlfriend... Ai-yin thought absentmindedly as she played the guitar.

Li Xi was wearing headphones and composing music, and even if Deng hadn't written any lyrics, she wouldn't just wait idly.

Trying out all sorts of music, understanding the characteristics of different styles, and trying to realize your own imagination—just doing this can bring you one step closer to the realm you dream of.

All technological advancements boil down to one word: repetition.

Even though they had just officially confirmed their relationship, Li Xi was still able to suppress his feelings and focus on his work. Ai Yin truly admired him.

She would find it a little difficult to do that.

The sound of the strings still echoed, but Ai Yin's mind was now filled with thoughts of the band.

It was precisely because Su Shi, Deng, and Li Xi all harbored feelings for her that the previous conflict erupted. However, even when faced with such a situation, none of them wanted to leave the band; instead, they chose something more important.

“A band for a lifetime,” Ai Yin murmured.

In order not to ignore their feelings, she chose to confess to them all on stage.

Aine thought that this would solve the problem between them.

Then Su Shi and Li Xi opposed her idea one after another.

Humans are really hard to understand. Aine couldn't help but think this.

The only thing that's certain is that Li Xi wants a response to her personal confession, and Su Shi definitely feels the same way.

It's not enough to just tell the band members that you like it; you also have to respond individually.

In other words, she would have to talk to Su Shi about this later.

Although she didn't hear it with her own ears, Su Shi said that she herself had also confessed.

Then we should be able to date, right?

But how Su Shi will react when she hears that she is dating Li Xi is a mystery.

Thankfully, Su Shi is the only one who will not leave the team no matter what. She is, and so are the others; they have decided that even if they are painfully entangled together, they will continue for the rest of their lives.

"Everyone likes me, and I want to interact with everyone."

Just thinking about it makes it seem absurd. Aine sighed.

Of course, she didn't make this decision simply because she thought, "Everyone has confessed to me, so I should accept their confessions."

The confessions on stage were absolutely genuine.

“Aine.”

"Huh?" Aine snapped out of her daze.

Lixi had already taken off her headphones: "What are you thinking about? Stop practicing, have you finished your practice for today?"

Even after we started dating, things were still the same as before!

"That's about it. Riki is still as strict as ever."

"I won't treat you differently in this kind of thing just because you're my girlfriend." Li Xi blushed and looked away.

It's more accurate to say the opposite; it's precisely because they are partners that they need to be even more serious.

Ai Yin touched her neck sheepishly: "I know. I was just thinking... there are all sorts of problems if you want to be in a band for life~"

"...Is it because of my confession?"

"That's part of the reason, but how should I put it?" Aine didn't shy away from the question.

She put down her guitar, sat down next to Lixi, and picked up her headphones.

"Confessing your feelings... can only be considered a manifestation, right? It represents the difficulties we will encounter in the future: everyone's personality, thoughts and ideas are different, so it is not surprising that conflicts and contradictions will arise."

Ai Yin put on her headphones: "If we can't even get over this, then a band that's been around for a lifetime would be ridiculous."

The famous thinker, Ms. Kaname, once said: "A girl who would quit a group for something like this is just a boring girl."

It's ridiculous to talk about a band that will disband because of a confession.

Li Xi fell silent and nodded slightly.

"It's ridiculous, but we're not."

Ai Yin reached out, moved her fingers on the touchpad, controlled the mouse, and pressed the play button. A piece of music that Li Xi had just composed immediately began to play in her ears.

"How did it go?" Li Xi asked, sounding slightly nervous.

"I think it's great! Riki's skills have improved a lot compared to before," Aine said with a smile. Although she didn't really understand music arrangement, she felt that Riki was indeed much better than before.

Li Xi pursed her lips, looking slightly shy: "Then, that's good."

She pulled Aine's hand again and held it.

"...Riki surprisingly likes holding hands a lot," Aine said.

"There's nothing wrong with dating, right?"

After all, we can't do anything deeper.

Lixi looked back at the screen and whispered, "I've discovered something recently."

"Discovering that you are actually a nun?"

"Huh!? You—" Li Xi raised an eyebrow.

Aine was probably thinking about how she had jumped up and yelled at Ryuna, "You're Emi!?"

It wasn't a big deal at first, but other people kept bringing it up, and it's almost become a dark chapter in her life.

Lixi gripped her hand tightly and whispered, "If you bring this up again... I'll—"

"At once?"

"...I'll push you down."

Aine exclaimed in surprise, "What do these two things have to do with each other?! Just kidding, just kidding, I won't mention it again!"

Does that mean Aine doesn't want to be pushed down?

Lixi's expression grew even more displeased; she had wanted to do it.

It's not just about kissing; there are so many more things I want to do, and I don't care if I'm called a pervert.

But Li Xi held back and sighed, "I just realized that all our songs so far have been about the present or the past."

"Is this the song?"

"Yes. From 'Rolling Star Stone' to the recent 'Chain Light,' what would it be like if we were to write a song about the future? That's what I've been thinking about lately."

Now that you mention it, it does seem to be true.

The future. Just mentioning this word gives it a vague and unreal feel, lacking any sense of reality.

But the only thing that's certain is... Ai Yin laughed, "Of course we're still in a band!"

“That’s natural, but what about other aspects?” Li Xi agreed.

It's unimaginable, like being shrouded in a thick fog.

Ai Yin suggested, "How about we write a new song on this theme this time? Tomorin must be struggling with what kind of lyrics to write."

Once you've determined the direction, things become much easier.

Lixi thought about it and agreed that it was indeed a good idea, nodding her head. Although she didn't have a clear idea yet, it was always good to have a direction in mind.

"Let's say it in the group chat!" Ai Yin took out her phone.

【Ai Yin:tomorin~】

[Light: Aine? What's wrong?]

[Aiyin: How about trying to write about the future in your new song?]

[Su Shi: The future? 】

[Aiyin: Riki said that our songs are all about the past or the present, so trying to write about the future seems like a good idea.]

[Su Shi: ...You're with Li Xi?]

[Li Xi: We didn't do anything]

[Lena: Oh]

[Su Shi: Nobody asked you about this.]

[Light: The future... Hmm! I'll think about it.]

That's it! I'm really looking forward to seeing what the new song will be like. Ai Yin put her phone away, completely satisfied.

"Riki, are you still going to work? Don't you really want to go out and have some fun?" Aine asked persistently.

"No."

Aine said disappointedly again, "Being such a homebody isn't good!"

“…Going out is pointless,” Li Xi muttered.

Only in this small space and world can she find satisfaction.

Holding hands, hugging, kissing—while it's not impossible to do these things in public, it's still not as satisfying as being alone together.

Before Aiyin could continue complaining, Lixi switched windows and opened a browser.

Let's watch a movie.

"Okay~" Ai Yin pouted.

At least it won't be too boring.

"besides."

As Lixi spoke, he sat down in front of Aiyin.

"I...I want to be held and watched..." Li Xi whispered.

Ai Yin's ears burned. Ever since the last confession, Li Xi's coquettishness had intensified tenfold, even ninefold. There was nothing wrong with that; it was even quite adorable, but it still made her a little shy.

Ai Yin wrapped her arms around Li Xi's waist: "Like this?"

"Ah."

There is nothing happier than this.

"What movie are you going to watch?" Ai Yin asked curiously.

"An animated film, perhaps."

She did want to watch some bad movies to relieve stress, but bad movies are most fun to watch when everyone is together.

P.S.: When I saw something abstract, I didn't grasp it immediately, and suddenly I felt like I was out of touch. Although it's not really a problem.

Chapter 149 The Innocent Allin

When night fell, Lixi chose to say goodbye instead of staying overnight as usual.

It's not because I'm embarrassed.

“If I stay here tonight… I can’t guarantee I won’t do anything…” Li Xi turned her face away.

The reason was simply that she was afraid she wouldn't be able to endure it.

Aine blushed and said, "Wow, Riki is such a pervert."

Why is this kind of thing on my mind?

Li Xi retorted, "It's normal to have feelings for your girlfriend!"

"Wait, don't be so loud!" Ai Yin said hurriedly, as she hadn't told her parents yet.

Although her parents will probably agree, we'll have to find a proper time to formally explain later.

"Ah, sorry. Anyway..."
