How can my simulation be a real love?

"Actually, I can use both hands?"

So you've revealed everything about simulating 'memory' fragments?

She's probably the only person in the world who knows his preferred painting technique.

Upon hearing this, Kazami Mei couldn't help but mentally complain. In reality, he could not only paint with both hands, but he could even use two paintbrushes to perform a dual-wielding style and give you a taste of his Starburst Stream Slash right in front of you.

"Oh... I see? That's wonderful..."

Sitting in a chair, swinging her legs, Ichiji Nijika seemed to be recalling something. A soft light flashed in her stunningly beautiful crimson eyes, and she grinned, revealing her most sunny and gentle smile, like the kind of beauty that doesn't exist in the human world, as described in poems and songs.

Kazami Mei was stunned.

The girl's smile was so beautiful it seemed to save the world. Her smile gradually overlapped with the memories within the simulated 'fragments'. At that time, Kazami Mei relied on 'memories' to complete her world-famous work "Summer", but she was unable to witness the birth of this painting.

That might also be the regret that Kazami Naruto, in the simulation, could not resolve until the very end.

Ichi Nijika seemed to notice that Kazami Mei was standing there in a daze, so she looked at her with concern and said softly, "Mei, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's nothing, I was just a little stunned because Hongxia is so cute."

"Seriously, stop teasing me!"

The blushing girl was just being coquettish, but Kazami Mei simply closed his eyes and smiled contentedly. The moment he opened his dark eyes again, the ordinary wooden oil paintbrush in his hand began to work its magic.

For him now, there is no need to consider anything more.

Kazami Mei simply wanted to depict everything on this canvas—the path she had walked from the depths of her memory until now, and the feelings she had experienced from the distant past until this very moment.

"..."

Ichi Niji stared blankly at Kazami Mei, who was completely focused. Even she rarely saw such an absolutely serious attitude. Now, this scene was only witnessed by her, the only "audience," and could only be deeply imprinted on her retina.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Holding two paintbrushes at the same time, Kazami Mei continued to draw on the paper. Although it was a long and boring process for the 'model', Iji Chi Nijika felt completely different. She just watched him with the same expression.

She wanted to watch it like this for the rest of her life, and she wouldn't get tired of it even if a hundred years passed.

As Ichi Nijika gradually became engrossed in his expression, the passage of time she could perceive became blurred. Just as she came to her senses, the black-haired boy in front of her was calling her name.

"Hongxia, shall we call it a day?"

It's almost five o'clock.

Before she knew it, Kazami Mei had put down her paintbrush and come to her side. This surprised Ichiji Nijika, who looked up in astonishment, seemingly in disbelief, and exclaimed in surprise—

"Is it already five o'clock?!"

Huh? Five hours have passed just like that?

It felt like it had only just begun for Ichiji Nijika, but the entire afternoon had passed in the blink of an eye, as if she had traveled through time in the blink of an eye, leaving the girl with a somewhat dazed expression.

Seeing her expression, Kazami Naruto found it a bit funny. Just as he was about to invite her to dinner, the studio door was gently pushed open from the outside, and a small, silvery-white head peeked out.

The girl's heterochromatic eyes curiously examined the two of them before settling on Kazami Naruto's face.

"Lena? Has the band practice ended today?"

"ended."

Kaname narrowed her eyes and nodded smugly. Then she slowly crawled out from behind the door, revealing her whole body. As usual, she snuggled into Kazami's arms and rubbed her soft cheek against his chest.

"Ming, where's the food?"

"Dinner will be served when Hailing and Xiaomu get back. Before then, why don't you eat something to tide you over? But remember, don't eat too much..."

Kazami Mei was nagging like a mother hen, and when he heard this, Miss Rakuna blinked and looked at the cookie box next to him. Her expectant look made his expression freeze.

"I just can't do anything with you, take it~"

"Yeah~"

The cat, her lips pursed, held the cookies and closed the studio door behind her. After she left, Kazami Mei let out a long, helpless sigh, then murmured in a sorrowful tone—

"I haven't even had a chance to eat many of the cookies that Hongxia made yet."

Seeing his childlike appearance, Ichiji Nijika found it inexplicably funny, and at the same time, she was happy that he cherished her feelings so much. Thinking of this, she got up and sat down next to him, and gently squeezed his shoulder.

"Why is Ming still acting like a little kid? Really... I'll cook for you more often from now on!"

"That's great."

Kazami Mei immediately returned to his initial energetic self, then slowly rolled up his sleeves and said with a smug look on his face, "As a token of my gratitude, I'll prepare a sumptuous dinner. I wonder if Miss Nijika would like to join us?"

"No problem!"

When husband and wife work together, the work is less tiring.

Having deeply understood this principle, Kazami Mei reached out and grasped the doorknob. Just as he was about to open the door to go to the kitchen to prepare, he suddenly found that the door, which should have been easy to push open, was now impossible to open. This subtle resistance made him raise an eyebrow.

Oh no, could it be that—

"What's wrong?"

Miss Hongxia, who was behind him, had already approached in confusion. Seeing this, Feng Jianming simply let out a long sigh of relief.

"It seems like we can't get out?"

Chapter 145 You're the truly cunning one, aren't you? [3k]

Literally, they can't get out now.

It's obvious that neither Kazami Mei nor Nijika did this intentionally, so the only possibility is that the kitten, who had just left with the cookies, simply locked the studio door from the outside.

"It looks like we can't get out for the time being. This is the second floor... I doubt Lena will even notice this side."

After a few attempts, Kazami Naruto exhaled a sigh of relief. He hadn't expected that Rakuna would actually lock the two of them up. He would definitely give the naughty cat a good scolding when he got out.

Fortunately, Ijichi Nijika, who was standing beside her, was always the gentlest and most virtuous. She simply gave a helpless smile and said, "There's nothing we can do about it~"

"If all else fails, we'll just have to wait for Xiao Mu and Hai Ling to come back. They'll definitely notice us upstairs then... or maybe Le Nai will run up again later?"

Being locked in a room with Ming wasn't actually a bad feeling for her.

A faint blush rose to Nijika Ichiji's cheeks as she slowly sat down on the soft sofa in the corner of the studio, patting the soft leather cushion beside her. She spoke gently—

"Since we have nothing to do anyway, how about we just chat?"

Upon seeing this, Kazami Mei subconsciously gasped, then slowly sat down next to Ichiji Niji Natsumi. The moment he sat down, the girl beside him trembled, but on the surface she still had to pretend to be nonchalant.

Ichiji Nijika quietly moved her delicate body closer to Kazami Mei, until she could easily smell the faint scent of floral tea on him. Then, blushing, she froze on the spot, her fingers fidgeting somewhat awkwardly with the hem of her skirt.

I didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

As a couple who have just started dating and are in the throes of new love, even though they have deepened their connection with each other both in spirit and body after confirming their relationship, the young girl, who has only just tasted this sweetness, is becoming increasingly passionate.

"..."

Ichi Nijika felt her heart pounding, but she didn't know what to say.

Despite having already established such a close relationship with Ming beside her, she felt completely... completely unsatisfied, and instead became even more immersed in this sweet feeling, becoming increasingly unable to extricate herself.

Today, she simply couldn't bear the loneliness in her heart, so she made up a stupid excuse to come see him.

"Little Lenai has moved in recently too?"

Kazami Mei simply nodded and said earnestly, "Because her grandmother has entrusted her to me, I have to take responsibility."

"As a result, more and more girls moved in~"

Ijichi Nijika's suppressed laughter made Kazami Mei's lips curl into a smile. He asked with a hint of inquiry, "Where's Nijika? Don't you want to move in with us?"

"Eh?"

A hint of panic flashed in the blonde girl's eyes. She opened her small, fair hand and waved it a few times, replying shyly, "I...I...I'd better not! Besides, my sister still needs me to take care of her."

After speaking, a faint regret flashed in the girl's eyes. She gently wiggled her little feet, raised her eyelids and looked at the ceiling. Her bright golden side ponytail swayed gently by her ear, the golden arc comparable to the dazzling sunlight.

It seems highly unlikely that she would move in with them.

"..."

Kazami Mei calmly gazed at the smiling girl beside him, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her soft and slender waist. As Iji Chi Nijika let out a surprised cry, he picked up her petite and light body.

In her panic, a blush crept across Ichiji Nijika's face, and before she knew it, he had gently pulled her into his arms.

"Ming?! Wha...what's wrong?"

"I was just thinking that Hongxia is really light~ She can drag a very heavy suitcase by herself and has enough strength to make a very steady drumbeat, but she is so light that she can be picked up easily."

Kazami gently rested his chin on her shoulder, which made Nijika's heart beat faster as she could clearly feel the heat. She also began to snuggle boldly into his arms, her beautiful face becoming even more flushed.

"He suddenly hugged me. Naruto is so childish... and a little cunning too."

"Do you hate it?"

The girl lowered her head slightly and took a deep breath, then replied earnestly in a slightly trembling voice: "...I like it. Nothing is more pleasing than being held by Ming."

Aren't you the truly cunning one?

Kazami Mei rolled her eyes and silently complained to herself, then couldn't resist cupping her little face and giving her a big peck. Seeing the angelic girl's eyes darting around, she found it a little funny, so she suppressed her laughter and continued—

"Actually, wouldn't it be enough to just let Sister Xingge move in too?"

"...No way, if she accidentally sees us kissing... she'll be devastated and run away. She might even impulsively carry the plane to London?"

Kazami Mei couldn't help but recall that strange scene, and she could almost hear Ijichi Hoshika's angry and resentful rebuke. She finally couldn't hold back her laughter after holding it in for so long.

From the beginning, Ijichi Hoshika had a bit of a dislike for him, thinking that Kazami Mei was the blond guy who tricked her sister away... Although it was actually the blond guy who was tricked, it didn't stop him from using the same methods as the blond guy.

Decided.

Tomorrow he'll ride his ghost fire with his marriage certificate to Starry and ask if he can park the ghost fire upstairs.

His jumbled thoughts made Kazami Mei cough lightly, but he quickly came to his senses and said, "How about staying overnight once in a while? Just like when the band had a dorm last time."

“This is…”

Ichi Nijika simply nodded in agreement, but the next second she suddenly recalled the scene of the band's 'training', and immediately felt her body start to heat up from the inside out, and her face seemed to be faintly steaming.

Looking back now, what was I thinking back then?

At first, it was indeed that idiot who pressed down on my shoulder and half-heartedly made me the [first in the End Band], but later I completely forgot myself, my brain turned to mush and I could only rely on instinct to perform on stage.

"Miss Hongxia? Miss Hongxia?"

Kazami called her name softly twice but received no response. Then, when he looked up, he saw that her ears were bright red as if they had been engorged with blood. Her adorable appearance made him gasp.

"...!"

Ichi Nijika seemed to sense the heat source behind her as well. She subconsciously turned her head and immediately met the eyes of the black-haired boy. Her slender white fingers gently kneaded and played with each other, and for a moment she didn't know how to bring up the topic of the band.

But, but she's my 'girlfriend'?

She has to take responsibility!

Taking a deep breath, Ichiji Nijika slowly turned her head and kissed Kazami Mei deeply under his shocked gaze. Then, her face flushed red, she pulled her head back and pursed her lips as if to pretend that nothing had happened.

"Should we...do it?"

A young girl's blush is more beautiful than any tale.

After a full half-second of contemplation, Kazami Mei slowly closed her eyes.

I thought Miss Liang was the pinnacle of vixen, but I never expected that the seemingly harmless angel Miss is the real heavyweight.

Anyone who could hold back at this moment would be considered a superhuman, let alone Kazami Naruto, who had just been betrayed and sidelined by his brother. He subconsciously cupped the angel's chin, just about to kiss her again—

click!

The studio door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

"..."

Wearing a black leather jacket, Hachiman Kairin gripped the doorknob expressionlessly. She raised her eyelids and gazed thoughtfully ahead. The already quiet air became even more still, and even the sound of breathing seemed grating.

Hachiman Kairin gradually raised her eyebrows, then calmly uttered a single sentence—

"...You guys are busy."

"Wait, wait a minute!"
