Because Su Shi's hair always smells very nice.

Su Shi looked her over with a suspicious gaze.

I always felt that Aine was doing it on purpose.

If you don't ask anything and just use it, she won't say anything; she'll just pretend she didn't see or smell it.

But since Ai-yin specifically asked her if it was okay, she had to give a direct answer.

Whether or not to accept it is a matter that has long been settled in the world.

"No."

"Stingy!" As expected, Aine still showed a dissatisfied expression.

"—But I bought new ones, the packaging is still intact, you can use the ones you already have."

"Huh? Did you buy it at the supermarket?"

Su Shi replied nonchalantly, "I guess so, since it was on sale after all."

It was definitely prepared on purpose! Ai Yin, Li Xi, and Deng looked at each other and thought of the same thing at the same time, since the refrigerator was full of their favorite snacks.

"Soyorin~" Ai Yin called out in a sweet, coquettish voice.

But this gave Su Shi goosebumps.

Don't call me that in that affected voice.

—But to put it another way, Aine will definitely not back down.

Su Shi then asked with a similar tone and smile, "What's wrong, little Ai Yin?"

"Ugh, that's disgusting," Ai said.

“That’s true to some extent,” Li Xi agreed.

“I think it’s quite cute…” Deng nodded.

Either reaction is infuriating.

"It's neither disgusting nor cute. Besides, it's not Aine making that kind of sound." Su Shi raised an eyebrow.

"Because I'm so happy! But I still want to know what brand Soyorin shampoo is."

Sure enough, they had their own agenda.

Su Shi sipped her red tea: "I won't tell you."

She has hidden her shampoo and shower gel well, and Aine will never know unless she smells every shampoo in the country and identifies them by scent.

However, that would require Aine to smell her hair, and that's something I absolutely refuse to do.

"What a pity. I'm going to take a shower now. Oh, by the way—"

Aine suddenly had a prank idea.

She smiled and said, "rikki~"

"what?"

A bad feeling crept over him. Lixi thought to himself.

"Want to take a shower together?"

"Pfft, cough cough..." Su Shi choked on her black tea. Why did Aine invite Li Xi to take a bath together?

The lamp gaped, speechless.

Renai also asked, "Is Riki going?"

Completely stunned, Li Xi stood up abruptly, blushing, and said, "Huh? Huh!? Huh!!? How could I possibly go! What are you suddenly saying? Did you get into trouble practicing the piano?"

Wow, what a strong reaction! Seeing this, Ai Yin also became a little shy, and a blush rose on her cheeks.

"It's nothing. Everyone changes clothes in the locker room during PE class, right? Everyone's seen it." She said in a light tone.

"We didn't go to the same school!"

"But they're the same gender."

Lixi shook her head quickly: "What you said is strange. Can changing clothes in the locker room be compared to taking a shower together? Anyway, I'm not going."

Moreover, I always felt that Aine was just teasing people, which was unpleasant.

"Where's Tomorin?"

"Eh, me?" Deng blushed deeply.

Li Xi exclaimed urgently, "Don't invite the lamp!"

The light clenched her fist, clearly feeling her heart pounding. Bathing with Aine meant seeing everything about each other completely, without reservation—that kind of thing…

...It doesn't seem so bad.

It refers to the ability to see everything about each other.

But it was still too embarrassing. Deng lowered her head and whispered, "No, no..."

Not yet.

“Then, Rana—” Aine turned to Rana.

Lena thought for a while.

Taking a bath together sounds like fun, and I can even have her help me wash my hair.

"can."

Li Xi's eyes widened: "What!?"

It actually works!?

The lamp blinked repeatedly, not quite reacting for a moment.

Aine was equally surprised: "Huh? Really?"

Oh no, what do we do now? She thought no one would agree.

"...Don't even think about it. Aine was just saying it casually, just to tease us," Su Shi said.

"Really?" Lena asked curiously.

All eyes turned to him.

Ai Yin chuckled dryly, "Um...sorry, sorry, I just wanted to play a prank on everyone on a whim! Okay, I have to go to the bathroom!"

After saying that, she quickly walked into the bathroom. It was almost like she was running away.

Li Xi sighed, rubbing his forehead: "This guy is really..."

"So it was just a joke after all," Deng muttered softly.

Thankfully, it was just a joke. Su Shi thought to herself, otherwise, it would have been unimaginable what would have happened in the future.

Fortunately, Aine didn't ask her. She didn't want to face that kind of question.

But if asked, Su Shi would only answer like this:

"Never."

PS: Maybe I'll touch it tomorrow, maybe I won't.

Chapter 74 I remembered a famous saying from one of the mountain band members: Goodnight.

As Ai-yin said, the Su family's bathroom is very large.

Lixi soaked in the hot water, tilted her head back and exhaled, her tense thoughts dissipating with the ripples in the water.

Several days have passed since the day I decided to create the new song.

Logically, there should have been some progress, but unfortunately, there wasn't. No matter what she did, the music playing in her ears didn't satisfy her.

"This can't go on..."

I've already promised everyone in the band, and I've also promised Aiyin.

He has already cut off his own escape route and there is no turning back.

They couldn't stay stagnant any longer; they had to make progress. Lixi knew that even if she failed to fulfill her promise, no one would blame or criticize her; they would likely even comfort her instead.

But she didn't want that kind of comfort.

"It's okay, you've done very well!"—Isn't saying this the same as saying that she can only reach this level, that's all she can go?

Sometimes she really wished that Aine and Akari would be harsh on her just once.

However, that is impossible.

Even the most ordinary people wouldn't do that.

Lixi closed her eyes, feeling sleepy as a warm current flowed into her body, but she couldn't fall asleep while taking a bath.

Once they discover something amiss, Aine and the others will definitely rush in, and then everything will be laid bare before them.

After splashing around in the water for a while, Lixi got out of the bathtub.

After drying her body and hair, she changed her clothes and stepped out of the bathroom. The first thing she saw was Aine, who was lying on the sofa playing on her phone without any worries.

“Su Shi, it’s your turn,” Li Xi said.

"Ah."

The order of bathing is: Aine → Akari → Ryuna → Riki, and finally, Souyo.

Before leaving, Su Shi glanced at Ai Yin with her eyes, as if to say: You really don't treat this place like your own home.

But Ai-yin didn't see it; she was just scrolling through her phone screen.

"Sigh..." Helpless, Su Shi had no choice but to go into the bathroom.

"Where will you sleep tonight?" Li Xi asked, concerned.

"Soyorin said there are vacant rooms."

"Four rooms?"

Li Xi looked around. Although Su Shi's house was luxurious, it shouldn't have that many rooms.

The lamp, dressed in penguin pajamas, said softly, "One room. It seems to be a storage room that Su Shi specially cleaned yesterday."

"It's called a storage room, but it's actually quite empty. But that's how it is in every room of Soyorin's house," Aine replied casually.

Lixi agreed with this.

The furniture looked expensive, but that was about it. It lacked a sense of home and atmosphere, resembling more of a luxury hotel room. A little mess would have been fine, but here it was spotless, like brand new.

"What are you doing, lamp?" Li Xi asked in surprise.

The lamp, which was pinching Lena's shoulder, blinked: "Pinching shoulders."

"why?"

"Lena said her shoulders are sore."

"This is something you don't need to do."

Aine smiled and said, "My shoulders are so sore too, Riki—"

"Rub it yourself."

"Cheapskate."

Lena nodded: "I can give it a try. Let the lamp continue to help me, and I'll help Aine."

Wouldn't that make it a connected state? It sounds pretty mischievous.

Soon, Su Shi emerged, steaming hot, and paused for a moment when she saw Aine, Akari, and Rakuna massaging each other's shoulders.

"What's going on?" she asked Lixi, who was reading a book.

Li Xi, who was flipping through composition textbooks, glanced at them and said, "Won't you know once you see it? Let me massage your shoulders."

Ai Yin turned and invited, "Soyorin, are you coming?"

"...I'll pass."

They're not little kids anymore.
