The author of the depressing comic book series makes the heroine cry.

"Huh?" Dai Wei realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly covered his mouth, but it was too late.

The entire music room fell silent in an instant, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xia Qiu.

"That..." Xia Qiu sighed helplessly. He hasn't even had his meal yet, so is he going to take the blame?

"Things are not what you think..."

"Oh?" Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Then tell me, junior, what do we think?"

"It's just..." Xia Qiu was racking his brains to explain when he was suddenly interrupted by Mio.

"I, I also have a gift for the president!"

Mio plucked up her courage and took out the braided bracelet from her pocket. Her hands were shaking slightly, but she still handed the bracelet to Xia Qiu firmly.

"This is...I wrote it myself...I hope the president can accept it..."

The music room fell into an eerie silence again.

Everyone stared with wide eyes at the exquisite woven bracelet in Mio's hand.

"mio...mio-chan?!" The drumstick in Lu's hand fell to the ground with a "pop", and his mouth opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed in.

You actually made gifts behind my back and didn't even give me one?

Dai Wei blinked her big eyes, with a look of curiosity and excitement, "Wow! The bracelet made by Mio-chan is so beautiful! Just like my pick, it's a gift for Xia Xia!"

This sentence was like a bomb, instantly detonating the entire music room.

"Wait!" Eriri stood up suddenly, her blue eyes burning with anger, "What is this? A confession relay race?!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha picked up the lazy chair and sat down gracefully, crossing her legs. Her long legs wrapped in black stockings shone with an alluring luster.

"Ah~ It seems that everyone in the Light Music Club is very 'enthusiastic'~"

Tsumugi still maintained a gentle smile, but the music sheet in her hand had been wrinkled: "What an unexpected development."

"that..."

Xia Qiu still wanted to struggle, and glanced at everyone, "Senior, Ying Lili, calm down first..."

“Calm down?!” Eriri’s voice rose an octave, “How can you ask me to calm down! First it was Yui, now it’s Mio! Who’s next? Ritsu?!”

The law team member who was picking up the drumsticks stumbled: "What does this have to do with me!"

Mio's face was as red as a ripe apple. She lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "I... I just..."

"Just what?" Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her wine-red eyes, "Just want to join my junior's 'harem'?"

At this tense moment, the door of the music room was suddenly pushed open with a bang.

"Excuse me~ We are here to rehearse too"

A voice full of energy came.

Next, Tuanzi, Yukino, and Haruno walked in.

"Oh my~" Yang Noi covered her mouth exaggeratedly, "Did we... disturb some 'special' moment?"

"Sister!" Yukino warned in a low voice, but her eyes unconsciously fell on the braided bracelet in Mio's hand, and her brows frowned slightly.

"Ah! Yukinoshita-san!" Tuanzi ran to Yukino happily, and then noticed that the atmosphere was not right, "Huh? Why is everyone silent..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was the first to break the silence. She put down her legs and slowly stood up, her wine-red eyes flashing with a dangerous light: "Ah~ This is going to be lively. Junior's harem has increased again~"

"Harem?!" Tuanzi widened his eyes and looked at Xia Qiu in surprise, secretly wondering, could it be that classmate Xia Qiu has revealed his cards?

Is this the rhythm of catching everyone from K-ONSHA and MUSE in one fell swoop?

Inexplicably, when thinking of this, Tuanzi also thought of the service club he was in.

There were currently three of them, myself, Yukino, and the newcomer, Irisawa.

Now, Yukino also likes Natsuaki-san, and Isshi Iroha seems to have a crush on Natsuaki-san as well.

And I, eh? I don't seem to reject Xia Qiu either.

The more he thought about it, the more confused his head became.

"It's not like that..." Xia Qiu couldn't help but hold his forehead, feeling a dull pain in his temple.

Once your reputation is lost, it will be completely gone.

But the only lucky thing is that I don’t seem to have much reputation in front of them.

After all, is there anything more serious than having a fetish for Gaara?

At this moment, Mio suddenly plucked up the courage and grabbed Xia Qiu's wrist: "President! Please accept this!"

She forced the braided bracelet into Xia Qiu's hands and hid behind Lu like a frightened little rabbit.

"Hey, hey..." Lu said helplessly, "Mio, why are you hiding behind me? This has nothing to do with me!"

Dai Wei blinked her big eyes and came over curiously: "Mio-chan's bracelet is so beautiful! Xia Xia, try it on and see!"

“Wei!” Tsumugi quickly pulled her back, “Now is not the time to look at the bracelet!”

Yang Noi was watching the fun and clapped her hands with a smile: "Great! Great! Xiao Xue Noi, you have a lot of competitors~"

Xueno rolled her eyes at her sister and didn't say anything, but her eyes involuntarily drifted to the bracelet in Xia Qiu's hand.

Xia Qiu took a deep breath and looked directly into the girl's evasive eyes.

“Thank you mio.”

“This is one of the most thoughtful gifts I have ever received.”

"But--" Xia Qiu suddenly raised his voice and pointed to the clock hanging on the wall.

"Everyone, look at the time. We don't have much time left for the winter vacation school trip, so the road show will be held tomorrow! We haven't rehearsed "Meeting Angels" and "Snow Halo" to the best condition yet. Do you want to leave regrets in this last performance and let the school trip end crookedly?!"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger at the clock, where the second hand was ticking away.

Ying Lili gritted her teeth and sat back in her seat unwillingly. Although she was still upset about Mio's behavior, she also understood that what Xia Qiu said made sense.

Kasumigaoka Utaha sat back in the lazy chair, crossed her arms across her chest, a smile flashed in her eyes.

I think now that it is not easy for a man to have a harem.

"Everyone has heard it, let's adjust our state and start rehearsing!"

Tsumugi's gentle voice broke the brief silence. She walked to the piano first, placed her fingers lightly on the keys, and tested the sound. The soft notes seemed to soothe everyone's restless hearts.

Team Lu picked up the drumsticks on the ground, shook his wrists vigorously, and said loudly: "That's right, don't just stand there, get the performance done first!"

After saying that, she began to beat out a simple rhythm on the drum.

Mio poked half of his head out from behind the law team and looked at Xia Qiu timidly. Seeing that he was not angry, he felt a little relieved.

She quietly returned to her seat and picked up her bass. Next to her was Umi Tamazono.

"Are you OK?"

A hint of concern flashed across Tian Yuan Hai's calm face.

Mio nodded sheepishly, "It's okay, thank you."

Umi Danzono nodded, then focused her attention on the song "Snow Halo".

Among so many girls, she and Lu Dui are the only two girls who only have friendship towards Xia Qiu.

The others have more or less that meaning.

Thinking of this, Tian Yuan Haiwei couldn't hold it anymore. Senior, are you specifically digging up the grass near the nest to eat?

Then the music started.

This time, everyone was finally able to practice quietly.

As the man in charge of command and behind the scenes, Xia Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past, when I watched everyone from K-On Club and Muse, I felt like they were doting on their daughters.

Since entering the Shura Field, what daughter? It's obviously an aunt!

However, Xia Qiu did not regret it.

As the saying goes, if I don’t go to hell, who will?

The dream of otaku brothers in the previous life.

I, Xia Qiu, will shoulder it all!

Three hours later, the women were exhausted and out of breath.

Seeing this, Xia Qiu clapped his hands, and when everyone looked at him, he smiled.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's take a rest now."

"Then we'll go pick out the outfits for the road show later."

"clothing?"

Ying Lili's ears immediately perked up, and she shook her aching arms, "Finally, I've reached the area I'm best at!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha stretched lazily, "Ah~ The golden-haired loser finally found his sense of existence."

"Who are you calling a loser?" Ying Lili snorted coldly, but then she suddenly smiled with a confident smile, "Humph, some people's figures... can only wear loose clothes~"

Ok?

How dare this ordinary guy laugh at me, the god of the mountain?

Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her burgundy eyes dangerously and was about to fight back, but was calmly interrupted by Kato.

"If they keep arguing, Xia Qiu-jun might be snatched away by Mio-chan and Wei-chan again."

They both turned their heads at the same time, and sure enough, they saw Dai Wei hanging on Xia Qiu's back and acting like a spoiled brat: "Xia Xia, I want a performance costume with a duck pattern!"

Mio stood aside with a red face, twisting the corner of her clothes nervously with her fingers: "Well... I think the solid color ones are more..."

"Hehehe~ I suggest that you wear the butler uniform. It will definitely be super-appropriate!"

Guo Huang jumped up and down with full energy, looking at Xia Qiu expectantly, "I want a bow tie that flutters in the wind!"

Minami Kotori twisted her fingers shyly: "Well...if it's a white tuxedo...it will look very handsome on you..."

"How can you wear this kind of clothes to perform?"

Mio seemed to have thought of something, and subconsciously glanced at Xia Qiu, then hurriedly lowered his head, his voice getting smaller and smaller, "But the butler's uniform is indeed... very suitable for the president..."

"no!"

Suddenly, Yukino shouted, startling all the girls.

She coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment, "I mean... the beach roadshow should consider the problem of wind protection."

Yang Noi smiled and hugged her sister's shoulders: "Xue Noi, are you worried about exposing yourself? Sister can help you choose a conservative style~"

"As for the sexy ones, you can secretly send them to Xia Qiujun to see."

"Oh, no, no need!"

The tips of Xueno's ears turned red instantly, and she subconsciously glanced at Xia Qiu.

Just happened to meet Xia Qiu's expectant eyes.

Xia Qiu's heart skipped a beat when he saw Xue Noi's look and he coughed twice.

"Ahem...um...I think Yukino is right. Clothing should be practical..."

Before he could finish his words, he felt a chill on his back.

Turning around, he saw Kasumigaoka Utaha staring at him with a half-smile: "Junior brother~ your eyes were very honest just now~"

"I agree."

Xia Qiu added, speaking with certainty.

I almost believed it myself.

At this time, Tuanzi looked left and right, not sure what this group of people were doing, so he raised his hand decisively.

"Well...should we split into small groups? This way we can be more efficient!"

Just as Xia Qiu was about to agree to the proposal, he felt several burning gazes locked on him at the same time.

"I...I want to be in a group with Xia Qiujun (Xia Xia, Qiu Qiu, the president, senior)!"

The unanimous shouts echoed in the music room.

Team Lu covered his face and groaned, "Here we go again... Umi, let's go by ourselves, these people are hopeless..."

In the end, under Tsumugi's mediation, everyone decided to draw lots to form groups.

Xia Qiu looked at the note with "3" written on it, and before he could react, he was grabbed by two hands at the same time -

"Great! I'm number 3!" Dai Wei waved the note happily.

"What a coincidence, me too."

Kasumigaoka Utaha shook the note in her hand, and her red lips curled up in a victory arc.

Xia Qiu suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Okay, okay~"

Tsumugi clapped her hands gently, "Since we are going to choose performance clothes, please follow me~"

She blinked mysteriously and led the puzzled crowd through the back door of the music room and along a corridor covered with soft carpet.

At the end of the corridor was a carved European-style double door. Tsumugi took out an exquisite key from the sleeve of her kimono.

"This is..."

As the door slowly opened, the women gasped.

In front of me is a spacious space comparable to the clothing section of a high-end shopping mall, covering more than 100 square meters.

In the center are several rows of revolving display racks, hung with a variety of clothing.

On the left are daily clothes classified by color, on the right are a wide variety of performance costumes, and at the back there is even an entire wall of accessories and shoe cabinets.

"This, this is too exaggerated!"

A hint of surprise also appeared in Ying Lili's deep blue eyes. She didn't expect that the other party's family background was not worse than her own.

Kasumigaoka Utaha also showed a rare expression of surprise: "Ah... Is this the daily life of a young lady?"

At this time, Dai Wei had already excitedly pounced on a row of furry animal onesies.

“Wow! Little duck! And panda! And rabbit!”

"Wei! That's the pajama area..." Mio blushed and wanted to pull her back, but her attention was attracted by a shiny stage costume.

Yang Nai whistled: "Awesome! It's even bigger than our cloakroom at home~"

Although Yukino appeared calm on the surface, her slightly dilated pupils revealed her shock.

Tuanzi was already moving between the clothing racks with Daiwei, exclaiming "So cute!" from time to time.

Tsumugi twisted her fingers awkwardly: "Actually... this was built by my father so that I can practice stage performances at any time... I rarely use it..."

Xia Qiu looked at the cloakroom in front of him that was comparable to a professional clothing store. It seemed that he had underestimated Tsumugi before.

This is not a young lady at all, she is the daughter of a super tycoon!

"Please feel free to choose~"

Tsumugi said gently, "If you need any modification, there are professional tailors at home ready to serve you at any time."

Team Lu swallowed his saliva, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, "Is this the power of money..."

The group action officially began.

Xia Qiu, who drew number 3, was "held hostage" by Dai Wei and Kasumigaoka Utaha on the left and right, and walked towards the performance costume area.
