Green plums cannot become lovers.

Under the blazing sun, the students busily prepared for everything. Each class was brainstorming their theme for the school festival, while various clubs wanted to take the opportunity to showcase themselves to their fellow students.

Their light music section is no exception.

They started preparing for this half a month in advance, and he even prepared a new song for it.

Seize sunny days, make the most of cloudy days.

A light drizzle makes for a fine day.

Through rigorous training, they finally managed to train enough to meet the requirements before the competition.

The school's clubs are full of hidden talents. The wind band, the wind instrumental ensemble, the jazz club, the choir... every performance by these large clubs is amazing, and the applause after the performance lasts for a long time.

Smaller groups with fewer than ten members are equally impressive; everyone who performs on stage has put in tremendous effort to practice for today's event.

If a regular first-grade student saw this, they probably wouldn't have the courage to go on stage, but fortunately, each of them had the courage to challenge strong opponents.

Their performance was scheduled for the last show in the afternoon, when most students had gone to rest after a day of playing, and people from outside the school had also left.

So there weren't many people left in the venue. This was unavoidable; their club had only been established a short time ago and lacked experience, so they were relegated to the bottom of the list.

"Next, please welcome the students from the Light Music Club to the stage for their performance."

Upon hearing the host's voice, the group of people backstage exchanged glances. They didn't say much to each other, but simply went up onto the stage when the curtain fell.

When the lights came on again, they were already standing in their respective positions.

"We are the first-year students from the Light Music Club of the Municipal First Junior High School." Hoshino Ai introduced herself without any stage fright, holding the microphone.

"The music we're going to play today is called 'I'm Sorry for Being So Cute,' and I hope you all enjoy it!"

Upon hearing this introduction, the audience immediately started discussing and asking who sang "I'm Sorry for Being So Cute".

However, the people on stage did not answer. After a brief adjustment, they began their performance.

The venue was plunged into darkness for a short time, but the lights quickly came back on, followed by a burst of loud and cheerful music.

"I love myself, what's wrong with that? Are you jealous of me?"

"I can't hear anything about it being cringeworthy or weird."

The girl's singing voice still carried a hint of immaturity, but within that immaturity was a charming and sunny quality.

The crowd, which had been discussing something, immediately fell silent after hearing the singing.

This is a song they've never heard before.

"Chu! I'm so cute, sorry!"

"I'm sorry I was born into this world."

"Chu! I'm a bit too smart, sorry."

"Sorry, you're bothered by this, aren't you?"

The lyrics of the **section are catchy, and the purple-haired girl on stage, dressed in a cute outfit, has her side ponytail adorned with star hair accessories swaying with her movements, captivating the hearts of everyone present.

Especially her eyes, which were made to look like stars in the sky under the stage lights.

Beside her stood a boy playing the guitar. The sound of the guitar resonated throughout the venue along with the girl's singing.

Among this group of only four, there was even a violinist. The young woman stood tall and straight, and the music she played was melodious.

This is absolutely wonderful.

Even during the later chorus, some people in the audience started singing along, even though they only knew one line.

"Chu~ I'm so sorry, I'm so cute!"

Ai Hoshino is also very good at touching people's emotions. When she notices that someone can't help but sing along, she will point the microphone at the audience.

After everyone finished singing that line, she took the microphone back and sang the rest herself.

"You're furious, aren't you? Serves you right!"

As the girl's singing ended, the music stopped.

The venue fell silent again, but then erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Below the stage, the pink-haired girl looked at the dazzling stage in front of her, and her eyes lit up as well.

Finally, I saw him again.

After the performance, none of them planned to rest and instead prepared to leave school to enjoy their vacation.

After tidying up the club's belongings, An and Asuka went downstairs to meet up with everyone.

Deng!Deng!Deng!

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps sounded, and a figure suddenly rushed out from the corner of the stairs. By the time An and Asuka reacted and tried to dodge, it was too late.

"Well!"

The world spun around them, and when they came to their senses, An and Asuka were already pinned to the floor. Nothing untoward had happened; it was just a rather unfortunate accident.

"You, you're alright... Ah, it's you!"

The girl quickly realized what was happening and sat up to show her concern. But halfway through her sentence, she seemed to have discovered something and pointed at An and Asuka in surprise.

The girl seemed to know him.

But An and Asuka were too lazy to care about any of that now. Feeling the weight on his stomach, he said expressionlessly, "Can you get down first?"

"Oh? Oh! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"

The girl was stunned for a moment, then, noticing the state of the two, she quickly stood up and kept apologizing.

"It's alright, don't be so nervous."

An and Asuka dusted themselves off, and seeing the girl's still somewhat surprised expression, asked curiously, "Do you know me?"

"Yes!" The girl nodded vigorously and said, "I've seen your performance."

"I see." An and Asuka understood why the other person knew them, so they asked, "So you're my fan?"

"Hmm, dove cage? Enterprise? b two? α Hmm!"

The girl nodded excitedly.

Seeing this, An and Asuka couldn't help but smile and said, "Are you lost? It's very late now, the teaching building is probably closed to the public."

The girl was wearing a uniform from another school, so she must not be from their school at all. She must have sneaked in.

I've come to find you!

"Find me?"

Even though I'm already a fan, I've probably only seen one performance. Does that make me a sasaeng fan? I'm so young, I shouldn't be part of this group.

"I want to join your club."

"Uh-huh?"

An and Asuka blinked at the girl in front of them, thinking they had misheard.

"What did you say?"

I said I wanted to join your club!

"...You're from another school, right?" An and Asuka were stunned for a while before they spoke.

"Yes."

"So how do I join my club?"

"I'm transferring schools!"

Upon hearing this, An and Asuka couldn't help but reach out and touch the girl's forehead.

The temperature is normal.

Volume 1: Chapter 85 How do love rivals come about?

"You believe me."

Seeing that the boy didn't believe her, the girl became a little anxious.

Seeing this, An and Asuka immediately comforted her, "Okay, okay, I believe you."

It seems this girl really likes him, to be able to make such a decision. However, her parents probably won't agree to her transferring schools based on just this reason alone.

Therefore, he didn't really trust the other party.

However, he couldn't let the girl's feelings go to waste, so he smiled and asked, "Then tell me your name. I'll give you a proper welcome when you transfer here."

"Himemiya Hanako!"

"Himeko Karen... what a lovely name." Anwa Asuka praised with a smile, "Then I'll be waiting for you, Karen."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Himegami Karen's eyes immediately lit up, and her face was filled with joy.

"If there's nothing else, you should go back quickly. Where are your parents?"

This girl seems a bit carefree. Although the school is safe, her parents will probably worry if she's here alone.

"At the door!"

"Then come down with me."

If it were a new member, he would definitely show them around the activity room, but in this case, let's skip that, it's getting late.

"Ah."

An and Asuka led the girl downstairs to the school gate. The girls had been waiting there for a while.

When he brought Karen Himegami to the girls' side, Anna Hanami, who was sucking on a lollipop, immediately widened her eyes.

"It's you!"

"Eh, Banami?"

Do you know each other?

Seeing the two of them like this, An and Asuka were a little curious. However, when Bana saw that Anna seemed to have thought of something, she quickly shook her head and denied it, saying, "No, I don't know her."

"You know each other, right?"

An and Asuka immediately saw through her lie. Since this guy was acting like this, they must know each other, and it seemed like the two of them had some kind of grudge.

"Mmm...uh..."

When Hana started to stammer, Karen Himegami directly confirmed that the two knew each other.

"We know each other."

"Did Xingcai do something wrong to you?"

Based on An and Asuka's understanding of the girl, she would only act this way if she had done something wrong.

"It's not really something I did wrong." Himegami Karen shook her head and said, "It's just that I bought her some snacks before, hoping she would introduce me to you, but she only ate the snacks and didn't keep our promise."

Hearing this, An and Asuka looked at the girl speechlessly: "Apricot."

Sensing his gaze, Anna muttered to herself, "Well, you can't blame me entirely."

"It's your fault for leaving before I even finished speaking."

When did this happen?

"Well, it was probably around fifth grade, but I forgot the exact time."

"..."

"Let's not talk about this anymore."

An and Asuka didn't want to bring up the past, since it would only make things more awkward anyway. He turned to Himegami Karen beside him and said, "Karen, go find your parents first. We can talk again another time."

"Hmm, okay." (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated.)

Although somewhat reluctant, the girl obediently nodded, then said goodbye to the group and left.

An and Asuka watched her get into a car before turning their attention back to Anna Hanami. They reached out and pinched her cheek, saying, "You can't just eat other people's snacks next time."

"I see."

It's best not to promise things you can't keep.
