Yidizhi Xingge really hoped that she was still dreaming and that the alarm at 7:30 would wake her up on time, but when she pinched her stomach, she immediately felt pain and her dream was shattered.
"Hongxia, you said Xingchuan is sitting in the living room now?" Yidizhi Xingge asked, covering her face.
Hong Xia nodded and urged: "Well, sister, get up quickly, Mr. Xingchuan is waiting for you."
Yidizhi Xingge glanced at herself in the mirror. Her hair was messy, she reeked of alcohol, and she looked unkempt. She didn't look like she was fit to meet people.
She placed her hands lightly on Hongxia's shoulders and said earnestly, "Hongxia, I have a favor to ask of you. No matter what, you must take Xingchuan Taku out of the house first. Give me half an hour."
Hong Xia asked in confusion: "Sister, you didn't pay attention to your image when Senior Hiroi came to our house. What happened this time? Mr. Xingchuan shouldn't mind your dress, right? After all, he can even accept Senior Hiroi's drunken appearance..."
"Can that be the same!"
In order to get Hong Xia to help her, Yidizhi Xingge even used bribery, beckoning her softly, "Hong Xia, if you help me this time, I will arrange the next performance for you guys right away, okay?"
In fact, after watching the band's performance at the cultural festival, Xingge had wanted to have them perform on stage again.
This can be considered as going with the flow.
"really?"
Hong Xia's eyes lit up.
"Of course, hurry up and help my sister. It would be bad if he saw me like this!"
Under the coercion and inducement of Ijichi Hoshige, Hongxia walked out of her room and asked Hoshikawa Taku: "Mr. Hoshikawa, I want to go to the supermarket to buy some things. Can you go with me and help me carry some things?"
"of course."
Taku Hoshikawa couldn't refuse the request made by Angel Shimokitazawa, so he agreed with a smile.
At this moment, he inadvertently glanced at Yidizhi Xingge's bedroom door and found that the door was ajar, as if someone was eavesdropping.
Xingchuan Taku immediately understood, lowered his voice and chuckled, "Hongxia, is it because your sister hasn't woken up yet, and she wants you to take me out while she can take care of herself?"
Hongxia blushed, and seeing this, she stopped pretending and pushed Xingchuan Taku's back towards the door.
"Mr. Xingchuan, some things are boring if you explain them too clearly. Let's get out of here!"
Although this was just an excuse, Hongxia really wanted to take advantage of the weekend to go shopping in the supermarket.
She originally wanted her sister to accompany her to weigh things, and now it’s just right that Taku Hoshikawa is accompanying her.
Hong Xia pushed a cart and put cleaning supplies and household items into the shopping cart one by one according to the list she had prepared in advance.
When she arrived at the vegetable area, Hongxia would carefully compare the prices, and she knew exactly what was cheaper and what was more expensive.
She's only in high school, but judging by Hongxia's appearance, she's probably gotten used to shopping alone a long time ago.
Xingchuan Taku asked with a smile: "Hongxia, you are very familiar with the prices of these vegetables. Are you usually responsible for purchasing them?"
Hong Xia said as she picked out fresh vegetables: "I'm not only responsible for the shopping, but also for my sister, who is clumsy, so I do all the housework and cook all the meals every day."
"What about your sister?"
"My sister runs the livehouse every day. She comes home very late every day and still asks me to prepare meals for her."
Seeing that Xingchuan Taku was very interested in his sister's affairs, Hongxia enthusiastically told her about the interesting things that happened when they were sisters.
But basically they were all complaints, not a single good word.
She said her sister basically doesn’t know how to do housework and always makes a mess of her hands when cooking.
She said that her sister looked very smart, but was actually a fool, had terrible academic performance, and focused all her energy on music. She couldn't even understand the high school questions that Pochi gave her.
It is said that my sister’s gaming skills are very poor, but she is very competitive. Once she loses a game, she will pester others and insist on getting back at them.
He also said that she was very childish and liked stuffed toys at her age. She even snatched away the panda doll that was promised to be given to her and used it as her pillow.
Although Hongxia's words were full of complaints, Hoshikawa Taku knew that the two sisters had a good relationship when he saw the smile on Hongxia's lips.
These complaints are actually a testimony to the intimacy between the two of them.
"Wait a moment."
Hoshikawa Taku suddenly raised his eyebrows, "You said your sister took the doll away?"
Speaking of this, Hong Xia had some complaints.
"Yeah, she gave Pochi the Nodame Snake she said she would give him, but she snatched the panda stuffed animal she said she would give me as soon as I got home. She also said that this gift was not good and she would give me something else later."
"If it's not good, don't even mention giving it to me. Besides, she holds it in her arms every night..."
Hoshikawa Taku couldn't help laughing.
When I gave it to her, she said no proudly, but she turned around and hugged it tightly, not even willing to give it to her own sister.
She's a totally tsundere silly beauty.
I like it even more now.
Chapter 147: Fighting for the custody of Xiangzi.
After paying the bills and walking out of the supermarket, Hoshikawa Taku could carry the large shopping bag filled to the brim by himself, while Hongxia only took the small bag containing fragile items.
"That's amazing! Normally, my sister and I would each carry all these things back home. Mr. Xingchuan, you're really strong..."
Hong Xia sighed.
This time was much easier than usual purchasing.
Hong Xia suddenly thought of the abdominal muscles that Xingchuan Taku showed during the physical examination, and asked curiously: "Mr. Xingchuan, how did you develop your abdominal muscles? Have you been working out all the time?"
Hoshikawa Taku calmly replied: "Yes, I do 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and run 10 kilometers every day."
Hoshikawa Taku describes himself as a fitness expert without batting an eyelid.
But in fact, this is all thanks to "technology" and he himself did nothing.
No, it's not that he has done nothing. Recently, Taku Hoshikawa has started to use the office's gym to exercise during his free time.
Because of taking the medicine, his strength and physical fitness have been increasing, and sometimes he can't control his strength.
He goes to the gym mainly to master his body.
As he practiced, he gradually felt the pleasure of sweating profusely after exercise, and even began to enjoy the satisfaction brought by fitness.
He also gradually began to like filling his free time with fitness exercises.
Of course, it would be better if it could be replaced with another kind of pleasure brought by sweating.
When Hoshikawa Taku and Nihong Xia returned home with bags, Ichichi Hoshige was already dressed.
Ichichi Hoshige's outfit today broke Hongxia's usual impression of her sister.
On weekdays, my sister always dresses in a neutral style, wearing loose and comfortable casual T-shirts and trousers, and does whatever is comfortable for her.
But today, she was wearing a white turtleneck sweater with a long skirt, and a black suit jacket. She looked fashionable, no longer as lazy as usual, but more intellectual.
Moreover, my sister also put on a very delicate makeup and wore a necklace!
Obviously, sometimes she is too lazy to even wash her face!
Hong Xia also came to her senses at this time.
My sister...could it be that she is interested in Mr. Hoshikawa?
Ijichi Xingge felt a little embarrassed when she saw her sister's surprised expression.
She coughed lightly, then asked Taku Hoshikawa to put down his things and motioned him to leave together.
"Hongxia, I'm going out. I might not be back until very late."
When they reached the door, Yidizhi Xingge suddenly thought of something, turned around and pulled Hongxia aside, and said in a low voice with a serious expression:
"By the way, Hongxia, don't tell anyone that Mr. Xingchuan and I went out to discuss work. Especially if that guy Hiroi Kikuri asks you, you must pretend that you know nothing!"
After saying that, Ijichi Xingge hurriedly pulled Hoshikawa Taku out.
Hongxia stood at the door, watching her sister hurriedly leave, and couldn't help but chuckle.
Judging from my sister’s expression, this isn’t a place to discuss work. Sure enough...the two of them are going on a date, right?
I never thought my sister had this side of me.
I don’t know how late my sister means by “very late”.
Is he not coming back tonight?
……
"Xingchuan, are we going together this time?"
"correct."
"Where's your band?"
"Their performance is tomorrow, so today it's just the two of us."
Sitting in the back seat of the taxi, Ijichi Hoshige tried her best not to look at Hoshikawa Taku and looked out the window.
Just the two of them, could this really be considered a date?
This is the first time that Ichichi Xingge has dated a member of the opposite sex since she was a child.
Thinking of this, her heart began to beat uncontrollably. She tried to keep her expression calm and hide the throbbing in her heart.
It was just noon when the two arrived at the music festival.
The entire venue is located on a wide river bank. It is open and grand, with several tents neatly arranged inside. At the innermost part of the venue is a large stage.
That was the main stage for the performance, the venue that Taku Hoshikawa would be in charge of.
Although the official performance will not start until the afternoon, the queue is already densely packed.
You can enter the venue at 9 am. The time from the opening to the beginning of the performance is usually the best time to collect the admission wristband, exchange it for physical tickets or purchase limited-edition peripherals of the festival.
Looking at the long queue, Taku Hoshikawa called the director: "Hey, Director, I'm here. As a staff member, I don't need to queue up to buy a ticket, right?"
"Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
After a while, the director wearing a music festival sweatshirt came running over breathlessly. He hugged Hoshikawa Taku enthusiastically.
"Brother Xingchuan, you're finally here. This time, we're relying on you for the stage lights!"
When the director let go of Taku Hoshikawa's shoulders, his eyes inadvertently swept to the female companion next to Taku Hoshikawa.
Looking at the exquisitely dressed and properly made-up Ijichi Hoshige, the director didn't recognize her for a moment.
He took a closer look before realizing who this person was. He asked in a tone half surprised and half incredulous, "Are you the manager of the Starry Night Performance Hall? Why are you here with Xingchuan?"
"You know Xingchuan is the manager of an agency. He wanted to take this opportunity to scout for some band talent, so he invited me to come along and help him connect them."
Ijichi Hoshika gave the explanation she and Hoshikawa Taku had discussed in the car.
After all, nothing has been decided yet, and she doesn't want others to misunderstand that she is dating Taku Hoshikawa.
"understand!"
The director nodded repeatedly to show his understanding, then pulled Hoshikawa Taku aside and jokingly said with that meaningful smile that only men could understand:
"Sure, you're actually dating Ichichi Hoshige, you're not trying to make her your girlfriend, are you?"
Ijichi Xingge thought her words were clever, but for a veteran like the director, the little tricks in her heart could not be hidden at all.
Hoshikawa Takuya admitted it without hesitation.
"I do, but I'm not sure if she'll accept me."
The director chuckled and said, "I think you have a good chance. I've never heard of her agreeing to a date with anyone of the opposite sex before. There are even rumors in the industry that her sexual orientation might be different from that of ordinary people. Since she agreed to you, it means she has feelings for you as well. You should seize the opportunity."
After a round of congratulations, the director put on a serious expression and reminded: "Hiroshikawa, if you are serious, I wish you success, but if you are just playing around, then I don't recommend you choose Ijichi Hoshika."
"She's a well-known veteran in the band world. She's been in a band herself and is the manager of a livehouse. Many bands have performed at her livehouse."
"You're the manager of the agency, and you want to sign more girls in the future, right? But if word gets out that you played with her feelings, your story will probably spread throughout the entire band community. By then, your reputation will be ruined, and you won't be able to sign new artists anymore."
The director whispered, "If you just want to have fun, I suggest you find a newly formed band that's eager to become famous. As long as you grasp the right balance, with your image, it will definitely be easy to get started..."
Hoshikawa Taku looked at the director with a half-smile: "So you've done this before..."
"No, I didn't do it, don't throw dirty water on me!"
The director shook his head repeatedly and whispered to Hoshikawa Taku, "This is the unspoken rule in the industry, but I only got here thanks to my wife's resources. I wouldn't dare do such a thing. If my wife heard about it, I'd be finished!"
