"I understand, thank you for your hard work."
Although her skill level isn't yet top-notch, Ai Yin's guitar technique has been improving these past few days, and she's noticed it all. A simple "thank you for your hard work" is the right thing to do.
Aine shook her head: "That's not what I wanted Riki to say."
"So what do you want?"
What about our agreement?
The agreement is to sing one song every day, plus record guitar practice videos.
Now that Aine has sent her all the MyGO songs she can remember, this promise has come to an end.
Li Xi felt a little reluctant to part with it; things that are commonplace will always come to change and end.
"Isn't it enough to just end it?" she said frankly.
"You're being too heartless," Ai Yin said with a subtle expression.
"what?"
Li Xi raised an eyebrow and said, "That's normal, isn't it? When it's over, it's over."
Aine also complained, "Really, Riki didn't understand what I meant."
"What do you mean?" Li Xi asked, puzzled.
She didn't understand, but she thought it wasn't her problem; it was Aine's vague and unclear expression.
"Even if the agreement is fulfilled perfectly and it's over, Riki and I can still chat at night, right?"
Li Xi understood: "I get it now, but... is it really necessary?"
Does it have to be absolutely necessary?
“If you want to chat, just go find Su Shi. I see you guys are always arguing in the group chat, there’s no need to come and chat with me, right?” Li Xi said.
Aine sighed again, "Ricky really doesn't understand!"
Hearing this repeatedly, Li Xi frowned even more deeply.
"I'm going back." She turned to leave.
"Wait! I want to chat with Riki more. It has nothing to do with whether it's necessary or who I'm better at chatting with. It's more like a hobby. So Riki, don't overthink it. Just tell me if you'd like to."
If it's just a hobby, then there's no problem.
“...Okay, I'll supervise your piano practice as usual.” Lixi turned around and nodded gently.
"OK~"
They continued walking, and then they reached a crossroads where they would part ways. Riki was to go to the left, while Aine's stop was on the right.
“Aine——”
Actually, she didn't have to say anything. Ai Yin didn't intend to ask any further questions and wouldn't force her to say it.
But since Ai-yin had already spoken about her embarrassing failures, Li-xi felt that she should also do something, even if it was just a little.
"Hmm?" Ai Yin tilted her head slightly.
"I've always felt that I'm not good enough."
"Aine looked at her quietly."
Li Xi lowered her head: "So many people are better than me, in terms of performance, composition, interpersonal relationships... They are all shining stars, but I can't even find my own light, and I can hardly breathe."
"So I ran away and didn't continue to Haneoka High School, but went to Hanasaki River instead."
She opened her mouth, but couldn't utter any more of her thoughts. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but rather that she couldn't; the more she revealed herself, the more difficult it became to breathe.
They can't even be honest.
Then, in the sudden silence, Aine spoke.
"Then we're all runaways."
“Aine is different from me.”
"What's the difference?"
Li Xi said softly, "Very strong."
"Without Riki's support, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"...Is that so?" Lixi was skeptical. She always felt that Aine could continue even without her.
Aine smiled and said, "Of course I know my own affairs. Do you think you know more about them than I do?"
Li Xi had no way to refute it.
“rikki”.
"Ok?"
Aine made a heart shape with one hand: "love!"
"what?"
As expected, he received a look of confusion mixed with disdain from Lixi.
Ai waved goodbye: "No matter what, you have to keep going with us, okay? It's a promise!"
Lixi's worries cannot be resolved in a few words. Although she does not intend to leave it to time, as long as Lixi is willing to continue moving forward in MyGO, there will always be a chance for things to change.
"I know, I don't intend to quit." Li Xi subconsciously wanted to raise her hand, but stopped herself.
Ai Yin jogged away.
Lixi watched her retreating figure and muttered, "Whatever..."
“Then we’re all runaways,” Aine said.
Lixi thought that was indeed the case.
She wouldn't be proud of it, nor did she feel that Aine was in the exact same situation as her, but being able to empathize with each other was enough.
Even if it's not necessary, we should still chat; no matter what, we should keep going.
The number of agreements we made without us even realizing it increased.
But she didn't dislike it.
After putting her phone away, Ai Yin quickly finished her homework and began drawing design sketches for her performance costumes.
Although it's okay not to draw, and this design is very simple, I haven't picked up a pen in so long that I've become rusty. I can't do it without getting back into practice.
Draw it, take a picture, and send it.
[AnonTokyo's new work announced!]
[Su Shi: ...What?]
[Lixi: Huh?]
[Aiyin: How's my brand?]
[Su Shi: That's such a corny name]
[Li Xi: I cannot accept this]
[Aiyin: What's so tacky about it! Besides, I was asking about design!]
[Su-Shi: If you put "AnonTokyo" on the back, I absolutely will not go on stage to perform. I have a feeling you will do that, so I'm just stating this in advance.]
Ai Yin guiltily looked away.
[Aiyin: I can't see it again]
[Su Shi: Absolutely not]
[Aine: What about SoyoTokyo?]
Su Shi simply stopped replying. Was it really necessary? Ai Yin sighed. She clearly thought both names were quite nice.
As the title says, it’s on the shelves.
There's not much to say. This book was written casually, and updates after it was published were also random. I updated less when I wasn't motivated and more when I was.
But I still want to thank everyone for their support.

Chapter 52 The Scene of the Giant Boomerang
Costumes need to be prepared, and training is also essential.
In RiNG's recording studio, Ai Yin is demonstrating the training results to the other three.
"How was it? Was it alright?" Ai Yin asked with a smile.
Su Shi nodded: "Going on stage shouldn't be a problem..."
Li Xi crossed his arms and said, "But don't be complacent. Only when your skills improve can I try more styles."
"Rikka is so strict~"
“You hear these kinds of things every day, so many times, what are you still complaining about?”
Listening to it every day? Su Shi glanced at Li Xi, who was frowning.
That's true, but Aine still said, "Actually, I'm the type who improves faster when I'm praised! So instead of always putting pressure on me, why not praise me instead?"
Lixi just sighed at Aine's coquettishness.
“Aine.”
"Uh-huh."
"...So-so," she muttered.
"what?"
"What kind of praise is that!" Ai Yin said, dissatisfied. "Riki, that's not a compliment."
"Stop nagging, you've got the wrong person. Go find Su Shi."
"Then, soyorin——"
Su Shi clapped her hands with a smile and interrupted, "Isn't it about time we started the ensemble? Otherwise, Le Nai might run away."
Judging from Le Nai's restless state, it's quite possible that she might burst out the door at any moment and disappear without a trace.
"soyorin."
Lixi nodded: "Indeed, let's begin."
"soyorin~"
He feigned indifference:
"Mr. Sushi."
Taking a breath, Su Shi whispered, "What are you doing?"
I've been poking her arm and calling her name since just now.
"I'm the type who improves when praised," Aine said again, hands on her hips. It wasn't just a hint anymore; it was a direct statement.
But Su Shi still asked, knowing the answer already, "So?"
"So, Soyorin, aren't you going to compliment me?"
"No praise."
"That's really too much." Aine seemed to have lost all her motivation all of a sudden.
Seeing this, Lixi thought that they had already spent too much time chatting and arguing, and it would be too late if they didn't start now—although they had only chatted for five minutes, five minutes was still time.
So she immediately demanded, "Su Shi, say something quickly."
"Why me?" Su Shi asked, displeased.
"Just hurry up, don't waste any more time."
Su Shi still looked dissatisfied; she wasn't the only one wasting time.
Glancing at Ai Yin, seeing the anticipation in her eyes, Su Shi could already imagine what the outcome would be.
