I'm not a womanizer for Chihaya Aine

Just when Lixi was looking at the news and felt that his future was bright, Deng had already passed by where Lixi was and said goodbye to him.

Li Xi came back to his senses, looked at Deng, raised his phone and said to Deng: "Wait a minute, Deng...Ain sent a message in the band group, specifically reminding us."

Deng heard that and stopped walking, picked up his phone and saw the message sent by Aine.

Deng didn't care much about when to start the Live, but she knew that Lixi seemed to care about it, so she turned around and looked at Lixi and asked: "What do you think, little Lixi?"

Lixi is in a good mood now. She smiled and replied, "I feel good."

Deng finally saw Li Xi's smile and felt the joy from the bottom of his heart. He also smiled and nodded, then asked: "Little Li Xi, what do you think of Xiao Qing and Xiao Ainyin?"

Li Xi turned his gaze back to the passing vehicles under the bridge again, suppressed the upturned corners of his lips, and said in a voice less gentle than before: "For now... it's not bad. I hope there won't be any mistakes when I play next time."

After saying that, Li Xi replied to the message in the band group.

【Lixi: No problem.】

[Lixi: Practice well and don’t slack off. ]

As a result, Aiyin replied to the message within seconds.

【Aine: I will, don’t keep pushing me! 】

【Ain: Angry Expression Pack】

【Qing: Panda grievance expression pack】

When Li Xi saw the green-haired panda emoticon package, he was stunned for a moment. Then he secretly glanced at Deng. Seeing that Deng was also concentrating on reading the group message, he quickly saved the panda emoticon package.

Deng was watching the lively group chat, feeling the atmosphere of her favorite band, and smiling knowingly.

Chapter 43 Contradictions, Buffer Zones, and Riddler.

Time goes back to when Deng thanked Aiqing and the others and left.

The remaining three people, Ai, Su, and Qing, went to the station, but for some reason, Aiyin did not walk next to Qing today, but walked next to Su Shi, leaving Su Shi sandwiched between the two of them.

Aiyin and Qing separated normally on the day of the entrance examination, and Aiyin roughly knew the direction of Qing's house at that time. She noticed that Qing seemed to agree to send her home today, but Aiyin had decided to keep a proper distance from Qing.

So Aiyin turned to Qing and said, "Qingqing, you don't have to see me off today."

Although some friends who are on good terms with each other would send each other home, Aiyin felt that the relationship between her and Qing definitely had not reached that stage.

As for the fact that Qing also sent her home yesterday, Aiyin felt that Qing probably did that with a purpose to get closer to her.

And Qing was seen in advance to be planning to send Aine home, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, as she wasn't in a hurry to get the system's coins anyway.

So Qing nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, we'll see you the day after tomorrow."

After saying that, Qing quickened his pace and walked towards another platform.

The day after tomorrow is the day they agreed to go buy a guitar together. Tomorrow Aiyin is going to play with her classmates, so Qing said see you the day after tomorrow.

"About that..."

Although Qing hadn't turned back to look at Ain, Ain had already turned her gaze elsewhere in advance, "I think Qingqing, you should go to the music store by yourself tomorrow."

Qing really stopped when she heard what Aiyin said, then turned around to look at Aiyin, and waited until Aiyin and Sushi were on the same line as her again before she caught up with them again, saying, "I'd better take you back."

Aiyin pretended to look down at the road and refused while walking: "No, don't bother, I can go home by myself."

"I want to go with you, isn't that okay?"

Qing said firmly in a cold voice.

After hearing what Qing said, Aiyin felt that it would be a bit pretentious to refuse. Even if they were just ordinary friends, she shouldn't refuse at this point.

So Aine raised her head and answered, “No problem, as long as you like it.”

The signature smile on Su Shi's face, who was sandwiched between the two, had already become a little stiff. She kept complaining in her heart: You two can pull if you want, but why are you pulling on both sides of me?

At this time, Su Shi remembered that the two big countries were in a cold war with each other, and as a result, the buffer zone countries sandwiched between the two countries were simultaneously covered by the firepower of the two big countries. Now she is the small country in the buffer zone.

What made Su Shi feel even more uncomfortable was that these two people walked together without saying a word. Su Shi could feel that these two people were constantly emitting invisible pressure, which made her feel extremely tormented.

Is there anything I can say to dispel this weird atmosphere?

But at the same time, Su Shi didn't want to get involved in the affairs of these two people. After all, they were people who were not needed for the reorganization of Crychic, and Su Shi had no intention of getting familiar with them at all.

At the same time, Su Shi didn't want to talk about the band. After all, in Su Shi's opinion, this band was just a stopgap measure to revive Crychic. He would end the band sooner or later, so there was no need to put too much thought into it.

We can only chat about family matters. But such family matters are usually initiated by others and then Su Shi responds perfectly. Although Su Shi is very good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, she herself never takes the initiative to engage in useless social activities.

Moreover, Su Shi now had no idea about Qing and Aine's interests, hobbies, and school life, so she couldn't find any topic to talk about for a while.

Finally, Su Shi glanced at the guitar bag behind Ain, and she finally thought of a topic. She smiled gently and said to Ain: "Speaking of which, little Ain brought a guitar here today."

Although she didn’t expect that Sushi would be the first to speak among the three, Aine still quickly reacted and nodded in response: “Well, after all, the band has been formed.”

Su Shi smiled and said, "But it's a pity that we were in band meetings all day today, and Xiao Aiyin didn't have a chance to play the guitar."

Although Lenai invited them to perform on stage, only Ain brought her guitar, and their band meeting had not yet ended, so Ain did not have the chance to use the guitar.

Aiyin also smiled and waved her hand, saying: “Although I didn’t use the guitar at RING, I practiced at school for a while after school in the afternoon, so it’s not a big pity.”

Su Shi put his index finger on his chin, thinking, and asked: "Practicing piano at school? Is it a club activity, like a music club like the wind band?"

Aiyin laughed awkwardly, because the club she belonged to was the astronomy club, which had nothing to do with music, and strictly speaking, she hadn't joined the club yet. She laughed and denied, "No, I was just practicing piano in the club room."

Su Shi heard Aine's vague words and knew that she didn't want to talk in depth about this topic, so she talked about her own things: "I see, I joined the wind band, because my instrument is the double bass. Although I started learning it after joining the band in junior high school, I have been practicing for almost three years now."

Aiyin became interested after hearing this, and asked, "Since there will be more band activities in the future, won't Sushi-san be able to bring two guitars home?"

Qing finally joined the conversation and said, "It's hard to do. It's very troublesome to take one of the bass and double bass, let alone two."

Su Shi shook her head and said, "That's what I meant originally~ But my mother bought me a cello so that I can practice at home."

Aiyin said with some envy: “Should I say that you are worthy of being a young lady? If so, when I don’t need to participate in band activities, wouldn’t it be easy to go to and from school?”

Su Shi suggested: "If practicing guitar is not a club activity, Xiao Aiyin can also decide whether to bring a guitar based on the band's arrangements."

After hearing what Su Shi said, Ai Yin subconsciously touched her pocket, but her hand froze as if she suddenly realized something, and then she looked in Qing's direction with a guilty conscience.

Fortunately, Su Shi's vast mind should be able to basically block most of Qing's vision.

Aiyin silently put the things in her pocket down, then carefully pulled her hand out of her pocket, made a smiling face and responded: "That's true, I think I should bring less guitar to school in the future."

Su Shi was about to respond, but Qing's cold voice spoke first: "If it were me, I would carry it with me every day."

As he spoke, Qing looked towards Aine's direction with sharp eyes, but unfortunately most of the intimidation from his gaze was blocked by Su Shi.

Qing continued: "Of course, it's up to you whether you want to bring it or not, Aiyin. But I will definitely bring it with me to school every day."

After hearing what Qing said, Aiyin's panic and shyness, which she originally felt as if her thoughts were seen through, were replaced by dissatisfaction. She clenched her fists, looked at Qing with a somewhat angry look, and questioned: "You are really good at talking, and you don't even have a guitar?"

The two looked at each other across the white sky, and Qing said without hesitation: "Anyway, we will buy a guitar during the holidays. Is this an agreement?"

Aiyin pouted and said, “That sounds good, but who knows if you’ll find it troublesome and not bring it with you? Anyway, it’s fine as long as you bring it to the band activities, right?”

Qing immediately responded: "Is it possible that I brought the guitar not just for the band, but also because I like guitar?"

Qing's words made Aiyin pause for a moment, and she even fell behind by two steps. Then she lowered her head and quickly caught up with him and asked, "You've never played guitar before, so why do you like guitar?"

The sudden verbal sparring between the two left Su Shi, who was caught in the middle, speechless.

No, I just want to find a random topic to chat about. Why are you guys always arguing?

If you want to quarrel, just quarrel. Can you please not quarrel around me?

The most frustrating thing is that I can’t understand what these two people are arguing about!

Sushi feels that even though what happened between Qing and Aine has nothing to do with her, she feels like she is about to break down.

Chapter 44: Exploration, one month, cloudy and sunny.

What will a person do when he is in trouble? The answer is to save himself.

The same was true for Su Shi, who was inexplicably dragged into the quarrel between Ai Qing and Ai Qing. She had to say something to stop the quarrel between the two. At least, if there was going to be a quarrel, she should not be involved.

Although Su Shi hoped that the two would leave the band tonight, Xiangzi's whereabouts had not been found yet, and Crychic could not be reorganized for the time being. These two people were the key to keep Deng and Lixi playing in the band.

Secondly, she didn't know what they were arguing about. It sounded like it was not just about the band. In that case, Su Shi was willing to mediate their dispute.

After all, putting aside the matter of Crychic, Nagasaki Suyo is a good girl with a beautiful heart and a kind heart. If you go to Tsukinomori and ask anyone who knows her, no one will fail to praise her.

Oh, there might be a trumpet player in the wind section who would find Su Shi a bit scary, but that’s not important.

Su Shi decided to say something to change the subject. As if she suddenly thought of something, she clapped her hands together in a very pretentious manner and asked in a louder voice than before: "Speaking of which, what do you think about the last question that Xiao Lixi mentioned just now? Are you going to decide on a time to start the Live?"

Su Shi couldn't find any other topic to talk about, and the most suitable topic to suddenly insert at the moment was the band's affairs. She was just too lazy to spend too much time thinking about the band, but she was not against talking about the band.

Su Shi's attempt to change the subject was very effective. It should be said that both Qing and Aine were very good at regulating their emotions, and they would not get angry even if they had an argument.

Qing retracted his gaze to the side and said, "It is an objective fact that we need time to prepare. I think it should not be a problem to start the Live broadcast as soon as possible based on having enough time to prepare."

Qing paused for a moment, then continued: "Of course, I actually think it would be better to be able to play in a band leisurely."

Aine also returned to her usual gentle tone and asked Su Shi: "Su Shi-san, do you know why Riki is so concerned about starting the Live?"

Qing had asked Lixi this question in person, but Lixi didn't say anything in the end. However, Aiyin was not a fool. She could of course see that Lixi must have some reason that he didn't want to tell them, which was why he was so anxious to start the Live.

Although Aine thought that the band might be the product of Ao's efforts for Deng, she didn't really care about it. After all, it was her own idea to form a band with Ao and Deng, and Ao just went along with it.

So Aine will still be responsible for the band and the new friends she meets in the band, and it is natural that she will care about Li Xi's affairs.

As for why I was angry just now, it was just because Qing said something nonsense, not because I and the band were being used.

Su Shi thought about it and answered: "I think it's because she pursues music, so she is very strict with herself and her teammates."

Qing said in an emotionless voice: "But we should have said that the original intention of creating a band is to let everyone play together happily. Her eagerness to make quick success does not seem like she can make everyone happy. Despite this, she still joined our band."

Su Shi said: "Because Xiao Lixi really wants to form a band with Xiao Deng again."

"So you joined the band because of the lights. You're the same, right?"

Ao made a summary, and came to a conclusion that was difficult for both Aine and Su Shi to answer.

Su Shi was stunned for a moment and then showed a perfect smile. While answering, she unconsciously played with her hair and replied: "Well... it seems to be true. But I believe that the band will get better in the future, and this is the most important thing."

Aine noticed that Su Shi was playing with her hair subconsciously, and she remembered that she would also unconsciously fix her hair when she said something bad in a beautified way.

However, she would not conclude that Su Shi was lying based on this detail and her own conjecture. But thinking of Qing's evaluation of Su Shi, Aine also became wary of Su Shi.

Of course, this is not something that should be of concern right now. Aiyin continued to ask about Li Xi and said, "But there is nothing that you can't tell us. Are you worried that we will kick her out because of the different musical pursuits from her?"

Qing shook her head slightly and said, "If that's the case, it's too stupid. If she really cares so much about pursuing music, forcing herself to form a band with us will only make both sides suffer. And it's not that we can't work together with her, but the premise is that she has to speak out her ideas."

Aiyin also sighed and said, "Yeah, why don't you speak your mind?"

Su Shi was surprised that Qing would say such reasonable words, and when she heard Aiyin's sigh, she thought of Xiangzi who left the group without saying anything, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Yeah, why don't you say what you think?"

Qing glanced at Aiyin and Sushi, then imitated their tone and read in a cold voice: "Yeah, why don't you speak your mind?"

Aiyin rolled her eyes at Qing in annoyance, not wanting to complain to him, and continued: "Although we all think so, there is nothing we can do if Lixi doesn't want to say it. I always feel that Lixi is not the kind of person who can speak out properly after knowing our thoughts."

Su Shi recalled the image of Li Xi in her mind, smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, little Li Xi is often not frank."

Qing put forward a different point of view: "Maybe she didn't tell us for another reason, a reason that is more private or inappropriate to tell us?"

“It’s possible.”

Su Shi nodded in agreement.

In fact, Su Shi had some idea about this. After all, as a member of the Tsuki no Mori Wind Orchestra in junior high school, she knew the legend of Riki's sister who dominated the Tokyo Wind Orchestra. In addition, Riki's reaction every time her sister and surname were mentioned, maybe Riki's persistent pursuit of music was related to her sister.

But first of all, she herself was not sure about this matter, and secondly, she did not plan to tell Aiqing and the others. If she told them, they would help Lixi and make Lixi feel a sense of belonging to the band, that would be bad.

While Su Shi was thinking about these possible things, Ai Yin had been pondering for a long time, and then, as if she had suddenly thought of a good idea, she smashed her right fist on the palm of her left hand and exclaimed: "I have an idea!"

All of a sudden, Qing and Su Shi both looked at Aine, who smiled confidently and said, "No matter why Li Xi cares so much about the reason for the Live, and no matter whether she will reveal her true feelings to us, it is her need to start the Live as soon as possible, right? In that case, wouldn't it be fine if we satisfy her needs?"

After listening to Ain's thoughts, Qing sighed and said, "You're right, but we want to know Li Xi's thoughts because we can discuss and compromise with each other and finally come up with a proposal that everyone can accept. If you directly meet her needs now, it's equivalent to us making concessions directly. Is this really okay?"

Aine said a little embarrassedly: "Well... Actually, I think it's okay. Riki has given us the right to decide the time of the Live, right?"

Qing asked again: "In that case, we will have to practice guitar more, which may be very hard. Is that okay?"

Hearing this, Aiyin subconsciously looked at her fingers, and she seemed to be able to feel the phantom pain from pressing the chords for a long time.

However, Aiyin is determined to practice guitar well for the band, but she doesn't know if Qing, a novice, can handle it.
