Qing shrugged and said as if he didn't care much, "I think if we confirm whether to join as soon as possible, it will be easier for us to find other band members, but I'm not in a hurry to participate in band activities. If you are not in a hurry, Aine, then we can wait for Deng to think it over before looking for other people."

“Eh… the other band members? I don’t know where to start.” Aiyin kept holding Qing’s arm with her left hand, raised her right index finger and tapped her cheek lightly, frowning and thinking. It looked like she was holding Qing’s arm and snuggling up to him.

In Aiyin's understanding, their pretend band didn't need too many people. When she was in junior high school, her student union band had only three people, a drummer, a bassist, and a guitarist. Even if she considered inviting new members, it would be best to invite their friends, after all, she didn't intend to play music seriously, and Ai Qingdeng and the other two had already formed a small circle, and others might not be able to fit in.

Seeing that Aiqing and Deng were about to go off topic, a classmate next to them couldn't help but ask Deng, "Hey, Xiaodeng, what do you think? If Xiaodeng wants to join the band, I will definitely go back to watch your live performances in the future!"

"Uh, I..." Deng was a little speechless when asked by his classmates. Deng was indeed thinking about how to form a lifelong band, but when he thought about love, sincerity and tolerance, Deng was too shy to speak for some reason, and his face was flushed because of the depression.

Seeing Deng's embarrassment, Aiyin quickly took Qing's hand and walked to the center of the crowd and said, "It seems that Deng hasn't thought it through yet. We are very happy that everyone is so concerned about our band formation. I will let you know when our band makes any progress in the future."

What Aine said actually meant that she wanted to kick everyone out. Everyone understood what Aine meant, responded with a smile, and returned to their respective seats.

Aiyin breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the crowd disperse. She murmured softly, "I didn't expect Deng and Qing to be so popular in the class. Everyone is so enthusiastic, aren't they?"

Qing, who was standing next to Aine, naturally heard it clearly. She naturally knew how popular Deng was in the class, because in the original work, after Aine successfully invited Deng, she deliberately discussed the band's matters loudly with Deng in the classroom. The situation at that time was very similar to today's situation. Everyone directly surrounded Deng and even squeezed Aine outside.

I don't know why Aine feels that she is as popular as Deng, but Qing has no intention of correcting such a small matter. She chuckled and slightly raised the arm that was still held by Aine, and said with a hint of teasing in her tone: "Now that they are gone, are you willing to let go of my hand?"

At this moment, Aiyin realized that she was still holding Qing's arm. She quickly let go of Qing's hand and waved her hand to apologize, "Ah, sorry, I was in a hurry just now and forgot that I was still holding your hand."

Qing turned around and put his schoolbag on his seat with one hand, raised his other hand and waved, saying in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry about such trivial matters. In fact, I quite like this feeling. Maybe I should be the one to say thank you."

“Eh?” Aine had never expected Qing to say such an ambiguous word. She looked at Qing’s freehand figure reflected by the morning light through the window. The feeling of holding Qing’s arm just now lingered in her mind for a long time. Aine suddenly felt her cheeks getting hot, but she still tried her best to hide her awkwardness and said in a joking tone, “Ahaha, Qing-san is really good at joking.”

Qing pulled out the chair of his seat, turned around and looked at Aiyin with a smile, but after looking at her for two seconds he just said "Really?" and turned back to sit down.

The moment Qing looked away, Aiyin immediately returned to her seat, leaned on her seat, covered her pounding heart with one hand, but secretly looked at Qing's back.

Aiyin looked at Qing, who was sitting straight, with a short ponytail of black hair that was not well groomed but gave people a refreshing feeling. A few strands of hair were exposed due to unevenness and stuck to the slender and slender neck, making Qing's neck look even sexier; and the two ears under the hair were as delicate as works of art, which made people want to bite them hard and kiss them...

Aiyin swallowed subconsciously, then shook her head violently to get rid of the strange thoughts in her mind, and covered her ears, which were burning, with her hands through her long cherry-pink hair.

Why would Ao-san say something that could be easily misunderstood? Could it be... No, no, no, how could it be possible? Chihaya Aine, don't think too much! But, but... Why is Ao-san so pretty? No, calm down! Calm down! Calm down!

Although Aiyin was sitting at the very back of the classroom, she was the focus of the class not long ago. Naturally, some of the classmates saw the interaction between Aiqing and her. They just covered their mouths and watched secretly. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, no one knew.

The lamp sitting in front of Aine and on the left of Qing looked at these two humans who were radiating warm sunshine all the time around him, and suddenly felt that the sunshine on them was so dazzling that it was a bit blinding.

----------

Xiao Zhang is giving out candies. There will be more later, but it may be a little late.

In my plan, it will be after the Golden Week holiday that Qing and the others will officially start forming a band, and other characters will appear one after another. The plot before and during the Golden Week is basically based on giving out sweet moments, and the plot will be pushed forward at a slower pace. Other characters will also appear, but their roles will not be many.

I hope you don't mind the slow pace. I am very serious about writing these sweet plots.

And I think that the more beautiful the relationship between Qing and her friends is portrayed now, the greater the impact will be when these feelings become distorted and the relationship explodes.

I hope you can understand.

15 Sugar, Green Lantern, Nickname

During lunch break, Qing stretched, packed up his textbooks, and then stood up leisurely, preparing to go to the cafeteria for lunch.

Every time at this time, Qing would think of the time when she was in high school before she traveled through time. In order to avoid queuing, she would prepare her lunch box in advance before the last class in the morning, and run to the cafeteria as soon as the bell rang. While running, she could see people from different classes running to the cafeteria like her. Those were the youth that Qing could never go back to...

Oh, now Qing means puberty, so it’s okay.

"Qing, are you going to the cafeteria?"

Aine's somewhat innocent voice interrupted Qing's memories of youth. Qing turned his head to look in Aine's direction and nodded in affirmation.

Aine looked at Deng who was sitting in front of her seat with some regret. After exchanging a glance with Deng, she looked at Qing again. She rested her hands on the table and held her chin with both palms. She said in a coquettish tone, “Hey, Qing-san, can you go to the Astronomy Club after you finish eating in the cafeteria?”

Hearing Aine's words, Qing, who was about to move forward, suddenly stopped and said with an expression that said he really couldn't do anything to you: "Okay, what's the matter?"

Aine straightened up happily, clapped her hands and cheered, then glanced at Deng and said, "Ao-san agreed, that's great! ... Deng has something to say to you!"

"Takamatsu-san?" Qing looked at Deng, only to see Deng nodded uneasily.

Qing was a little surprised. Deng and Ain were almost always in her sight, and she didn't see them whispering to each other today. How did Ain know that Deng had something to say to her?

But Qing soon remembered that during the morning break, Aine invited her and Deng to go to the bathroom together, but she did not agree. As Qing was not completely feminine yet, she still felt it was strange to go to the bathroom together... It was probably when they went to the bathroom that Deng told Aine that she had something to say to Qing.

Qing nodded after figuring it out, and said to the two of them, "I understand. I will go to the Astronomy Department as soon as possible after lunch."

Aine waved her hand and said, “Don’t be so anxious, just finish your meal slowly and come back later! We will wait patiently for you to come.”

Ao nodded and left the classroom. Aine and Deng also took their lunch boxes and headed to the Astronomy Club.

……

In the Astronomy Club room, Aine swallowed the last bite of her fruit sandwich and asked Deng who was drinking tea, “So, what is that thing Deng asked me to tell you about Ao-san?”

Hearing Aine's question, Deng's hand, which was originally holding the cup to bring to his mouth, paused. Then Deng put down the cup, leaned forward slightly, looked at Aine and asked, "How did Xiaoqing call you by your name, Aine?"

“Ah, well…” Aine thought for a moment and said, “It seems like when we first met and introduced ourselves, I said ‘Just call me Aine’, and then Ao-san just kept calling me by my name.”

"Is that so?"

“Yes, that’s right.” Aine nodded and said, “Tomoe, you asked this because you really want Ao-san to call you by your name, right?”

Deng nodded, and then recalled the conversations with Qing these days. He seemed to recall something not so pleasant, and said in a depressed mood: "Xiao Qing... also called my name twice... but... both times were when I made mistakes..."

Aine didn't have much impression, but as a transfer student, she didn't know what kind of conversation they had before she came to Hanegaoka, so she asked, "What exactly happened?"

Deng recalled and spoke intermittently: "One time was yesterday... Xiaoqing said I was avoiding... Another time was a week ago, when Xiao Ain hadn't come yet... At that time, Xiaoqing visited the Astronomy Club and said that the club work was boring... I didn't know what to do... Xiaoqing said that we could fill the activities with drinking tea and chatting... Then she encouraged me... At that time, she called my name..."

"Eh... is there such a thing?"

Aine didn't even notice that Qing called Deng by his name when he criticized Deng yesterday, and she didn't know what happened a week ago. But this is why the Astronomy Club has so many tea leaves and tea sets... Deng brought so many tea leaves and tea sets just because of Qing's suggestion. It seems that Deng really cares about Qing.

Then we have to help Deng even more and let Qing call Deng's name.

So Aine started thinking about how to help Deng, and finally Aine came to a conclusion.

"It seems that the best way is to tell Qing-san directly and tell her that you hope she can just call you by your name."

Deng hesitated a little and asked, "Is that all?"

Aine nodded and explained, "From what I've observed, Qing-san is the type of person who is afraid of trouble. It's better to ask her directly than to beat around the bush. And if you don't tell her what you think, she won't change herself. For her, change also requires effort."

After Aine finished speaking, Deng nodded as if she understood something and said, “…I’ll give it a try.”

Aiyin looked at Deng's unsure look and smiled to comfort her, "I don't think you need to worry that Qing will reject you. After all, it sounds like the two times when Qing called your name, she was telling you what was in her heart, right? In other words, in her heart, she has been calling you 'Deng' all the time."

“Really?” Deng looked at Aine with some surprise and asked for confirmation.

"Of course... probably!"

……

Outside the club room, Yanagisawa Aoki leaned against the wall with his arms folded and his eyes closed, listening carefully to the conversation between Aine and Deng in the astronomy club.

"So it's about this... Well, it's about time for me to go in."

Qing muttered to himself and walked towards the Astronomy Department. With his master-level expression control, the expression on his face did not look any different from usual.

"I'm here, Aiyin, Deng, what do you want to talk to me about?" Qing walked in front of Aiyin and Deng, with a blank expression on his face as usual, and asked in a cold voice.

"...Hey, Xiaoqing?" Deng was a little at a loss when his name was suddenly called.

"Good afternoon, Qing-san... No, what did you shout "light up" just now, Qing-san?" This is Aiyin realizing that something was wrong.

Qing tilted his head, looked at Aiyin with some confusion and said, "I called Deng, is that weird?"

Aine waved her hands frantically and said, “No, no, no, this is weird, super weird… Ah, sorry, Deng, I didn’t mean it’s weird that Ao-san called you by your name, I meant it’s weird that Ao-san suddenly changed the name.”

Qing shrugged and said, "Isn't the purpose of taking a name to be called by others? I wanted to call Deng by your last name before, but now I want to call you by your first name. Is that not okay? Doesn't Deng want me to call you by your first name?"

Deng quickly shook his head and said, "I, I hope Xiaoqing will just call me by my name like this!"

Qing pulled a chair and sat next to Aiyin, saying nonchalantly, "Then it's over."

Aiyin stared at Qing's face for a long time, then pulled Qing's sleeve and whispered in Qing's ear, "Qing, you were eavesdropping on our conversation outside the door again, weren't you?"

Qing turned to look at Aine's questioning eyes, without any trace of guilt on his face, and whispered, "Aine, how rude of you! I've never eavesdropped on your conversations. It's not good to doubt others casually."

Aiyin looked at Qing's delicate and calm face. Although she could not see any emotion, Aiyin seemed to feel that face saying, "I just eavesdropped, what can you do about it?" She turned her head away unhappily, stood up from the chair, slapped the table with both hands, and announced loudly, "Okay, I've decided, I'm going to change my name too!"

All of a sudden, Qing and Deng both looked towards Aine, wondering what Aine was going to do.

Aine looked at Deng and said, "From now on, I'm going to call Deng Deng Deng!"

"Eh? Me?" Deng didn't quite react. Of course, even if she did, she wouldn't reject Aine's name because that's how Aine called Deng in the original anime.

Qing, who was watching the fun from the side, clapped his hands without thinking it was too much, smiled at the lights and said, "That's great!"

Deng was confused and started clapping along with Qing's applause.

However, at this moment, Aine turned her gaze towards Ao and smiled so brightly that even her little canine teeth were exposed.

"If it's classmate Qing, I'll just call you Qingqing from now on."

Qing's hands, which were originally clapping, stopped in the air. Instead, Deng was imitating the enthusiastic clapping that Qing had done when she called her Deng Deng just now. For a while, the sound of applause was endless.

Qing quickly adjusted his mood and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, I admit that your naming taste is very unique, but I still like this nickname. Please take care of me in the future, Ai Yinyin."

"Pfft!"

Aiyin was stunned by Qing's sudden call of "Aiyinyin". She covered her mouth and laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist. She just sat down in her seat.

Qing raised an eyebrow, and said as if talking to himself or sighing: "It turns out that Ai Yinyin also knows that her naming taste is funny."

“No.” Aiyin tried to stop laughing, but she couldn’t hide the joy on her face. “It’s just that Qingqing yelled like that with that poker face… It’s really interesting! Please call me like that from now on!”

Qing covered his forehead and sighed, complaining: "Is this true... Do you really like others calling you like that?"

As a psychologically male, Qing really finds it hard to accept calling someone else in such a disgusting way, even if that person is his personal favorite.

Aine nodded as a matter of course and said, "Of course, that sounds so cute!"

"Don't worry, I will never call you like that again." This was Qing's firm voice.

“Eh? Why? You can yell once in a while!” This was Aiyin’s puzzled voice.

"Pa~pa~pa~pa!" This is the sound of the lights clapping.

--------

In fact, I wonder if Qing and Aideng's relationship heated up a little too quickly. Judging from their timeline, they only knew each other or had close contact for a few days.

However, once the plot is officially on track, it will be difficult to write this kind of pure sweetness, so I can only stuff it into this timeline.

But maybe there are also situations where the relationship heats up so quickly, but I have never been in love, so I don’t really understand these things. I can only use the pathetic fantasy of the young boy to try to portray the beauty in my heart.

16 Sugar, Hairstyle, Astronomy

After Qing came to the Astronomy Department and solved Deng's troubles, Deng had nothing special to say to Qing. Qing naturally knew this, so she didn't ask Deng what was the matter that he had asked her to come over.

But this would mean they would lose an important topic of conversation, and there was still quite some time before the lunch break ended, which meant that if they didn't find a new topic, the Astronomy Department might fall into an awkward silence.

Qing and Deng didn't mind just drinking tea and daydreaming quietly, but Aine didn't like the atmosphere to get cold. So Aine kept bringing up new topics, but she was surprised to find that Qing and Deng seemed to have little interest or even didn't understand the topics that girls of the same age liked to talk about.

“You two, are you really high school girls?” Aine couldn’t help but complain.

Although Qing's soul was not that of a high school girl, she said without wavering, "It's you, Aine, who has a stereotype about high school girls, right? It's a different era now, but you're still a traditional JK. Do you have any sense of self-expression?"

Aiyin looked at Qing with resentful eyes and said, "Let's not talk about Deng Deng for now. Qingqing, as a female high school student, you don't even take care of your hair, right?...Ahhh, I can't stand it. Every time I see your hairstyle, I can't help but help you fix it. Now I can't stand it anymore!"

After saying that, Aine stood up and walked behind Qing, but she didn't do what she said, but held Qing's shoulders with both hands, waiting for Qing's reaction. Aine was quite sensible in this regard, she knew that among girls, there were some who didn't like others touching their hair even if they were close. She waited here to give Qing some time to react, and if Qing asked her to stop, Aine would not touch Qing's hair again.

However, during this waiting time, Aine had the rare opportunity to look at Qing's back from a higher angle, and suddenly felt that this slightly messy hairstyle made the back of Qing's neck look sexy. In addition, Qing had slightly loosened his tie during lunch break to make himself more comfortable. This perspective of looking down from behind allowed her to see the collarbone hidden under the high-necked shirt.

Just when Aiyin was somewhat fascinated by the scene, Qing's doubtful voice came from the front: "Didn't you say you would help me sort it out? Why haven't you started yet?"

Qing's voice startled Aine, but luckily Qing had his back to her, so she didn't have to worry about her expression being noticed. But the light from the opposite side looked at Aine with a slightly curious look, which made Aine feel a little embarrassed.

After calming down a bit, Aine untied Qing’s hair tie and started to style her hair, while saying unhappily, “I’m just trying to see if you’d be reluctant. What if you’re the type who doesn’t like others touching your hair?”

Qing shrugged and said, "If I cared so much about my hairstyle, I wouldn't have tied it so casually in the first place."

After that, Aiyin began to carefully tidy up Qing's hair, and Qing was happy to stop talking and began to close his eyes to rest. Deng silently watched the friendly interaction between the two, and happily immersed himself in this beautiful atmosphere.

But after closing her eyes, Qing's senses other than hearing seemed to become more sensitive. From time to time, she could feel the subtle touch of Aine's fingertips touching and pinching her hair, which made her feel itchy in her heart and body. It was a feeling that she could never feel before she traveled through time as a male who did not have long hair.

Apart from that, he could also feel Aine's gentle breath when she occasionally leaned over to carefully observe whether there were any omissions in her hair, and the faint fragrance that he didn't know what it smelled but was intoxicating anyway.

Qing's throat moved and he suddenly felt his neck and arms itchy. In short, he felt uncomfortable all over.
