Drinking the black tea brewed by Chaoyang, Su Shi calmed down.
But at the same time, Xiangzi's words came to his mind again.
"...wouldn't it be better to just find your own place again? Who said there can only be one?"
Seeing Su Shi's silence, Chaoyang put down his teacup and spoke.
"Do you think I would listen to a stranger's lecture? ...And how do you know..."
"Huh? I thought we had become close friends when you were on my back just now. After all, you told me all your stories."
"Why!?"
Su Shi thought about it and it seemed that he did recall his memories when he was unconscious, and it seemed that someone was talking to him and agreeing with him.
When Su Shi thought of this, she immediately glared at Chaoyang.
"I didn't ask you to say that, it was you who kept nagging behind my back. Well, no wonder Xiangzi is so important to you, I understand. But the Xiangzi now is not the same person you remember, so it's better for you to understand it this way."
At this moment, the door of the living room was suddenly pushed open.
A woman in her thirties walked in.
"Ah~ I'm so tired~ Sushi~ Oh, there's a customer? ...And it's a boy!?"
"Hello auntie."
"Mother!?"
Su Shi immediately and subconsciously returned to her good girl voice.
"Has Su Shi finally reached this age? Mmm, Mmm, Mom, I understand, ah... But that kind of thing is too early for you, so don't do it. If it's just a simple relationship, Mom won't object... Uh... Su Shi, come here!!!"
When Su Shi's mother saw Chaoyang's appearance, she was immediately shocked. She walked to Su Shi, forcibly grabbed Su Shi's wrist, ran back to the bedroom, and slammed the door shut.
"Mom, I won't let you date an old man like that!"
"No, Mom! He... he's just a friend of a friend. Today, when I was playing with my friends, I passed out and he was kind enough to carry me home. I just treated him to a cup of tea to express my gratitude. And Mr. Chaoyang is only in his 20s..."
Su Shi subconsciously defended Chao Yang.
"Is that so? You can't be alone at home with that kind of... boy. It's better to be on guard against any problems."
Su Shi's mother pinched Su Shi's shoulders with both hands and spoke worriedly.
"I understand, Mom. But it's a bit rude to stay in the room for so long. You should leave first."
"That's right. Sorry, Mom Sushi is a little excited. Go out and apologize to your friend."
"No, there's no need to apologize. Um, he doesn't care about this kind of thing."
"Is that so? That's quite unexpected. Then, Mom, I won't be going out. I still have work to do. I need to send the proposal to the investor by tomorrow morning. Call me if you need anything... Oh, and here's this."
Su Shi's mother took out a stun gun from the bedroom drawer and carefully placed it in Su Shi's hand.
"This is for you. Although Mr. Chaoyang may be a good person, you should always be careful. Your own safety is the most important."
Su Shi took the stun gun and smiled helplessly. After knowing how powerful Chaoyang was, this thing was probably just a toy to him. Now, even if Chaoyang told him that he could block bullets with his body, he wouldn't find it strange.
But she would not refuse her mother's kindness. Although she was a little disgusted with the stun gun, she still put it in the pocket of her skirt.
308. She is your father! ?
“…Sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Su Shi pushed the door open and apologized to Chaoyang who was sitting on the sofa in the living room.
"It's okay, I understand."
"Look at that ugly smile on your face... you must have been eavesdropping."
Looking at the rising sun
"I have very sensitive ears after all. Actually, I'm the one your mother dislikes and treats me better."
"She's not wrong. You're quite dangerous. You're trespassing. Could you please not do that again?"
"that?"
Seeing that Chaoyang was still a little confused, Su Shi pointed to the balcony.
"Ah? You mean that? Haha, I won't crawl again. But before, if I went through the main entrance, you wouldn't open the door for me, right?"
Su Shi lowered her head and looked at the coffee table in front of her with an unhappy look on her face, her hands constantly playing with a bunch of her hair.
"Finish this cup of tea and go back. If possible, I don't want to see you again."
"I don't mind. What are you going to do with the band now? You haven't been there for two days."
"That was just a tool I used to rebuild CRYCHIC. Since it's already failed, there's no point in staying here any longer."
There was a heavy feeling between the words, as if closing the door of his heart at the same time.
"How irresponsible! You and Aine founded this band together, and now you want to abandon it? And what about Deng and Li Xi? The most important person in CRYCHIC to you is Xiangzi? She's your father? You love her so much?"
"!?"
Su Shi was so angry at Chaoyang's words that she immediately took out the stun gun her mother gave her for self-defense.
Her hands were shaking, and she pointed the stun gun coldly at Chaoyang. There was a hint of anger and helplessness in her eyes. Chaoyang's words had obviously touched her most sensitive nerves.
"You don't understand anything, why do you dare to speak so arrogantly?"
"Hmph, if you want to shock me, go ahead, but that only proves that you have nothing to say."
"What do you want? I clearly...ah, I see, I've heard that you like to play with women. Are you interested in me? Will you let me go if I just spend one night with you? Is that so? If so, then let's go to my room now."
"Aha……"
Seeing that Su Shi was in a state of madness, Chaoyang grabbed the stun gun, adjusted it to the lowest power, pressed the switch, and poked it at Su Shi's body.
"it hurts!"
"Please wake up."
Chaoyang said calmly, there was no blame in his tone, only a hint of helplessness. He placed the stun gun on the coffee table to ensure that there was no threat between the two of them.
Su Shi rubbed the part that was electrocuted and looked at Chaoyang with complicated eyes.
"You really can attack girls without any scruples... violent man, evil..."
"I am an egalitarian and believe in gender equality."
"..."
Su Shi grabbed the stun gun and shocked Chao Yang with his backhand.
Chaoyang naturally reacted, but he let it go.
This level of electric current had no effect on Chaoyang. Having experienced all kinds of pain that was deadly enough in his previous world, even a tickle was not much.
"Satisfied?"
Su Shi seemed to have given up and didn't even have the desire to turn up the power.
"Are you human or not?"
"Yeah. At least there shouldn't be reproductive isolation."
"Who's talking to you about this? You're not really planning to... wow, that's disgusting."
At this time, the door of Su Shi's mother's bedroom was opened.
"What's going on? Did I hear you guys yelling and arguing just now?"
Su Shi immediately changed her voice.
"No, Mom, it's just that Mr. Chaoyang just mentioned something and I couldn't help laughing. Sorry for the rudeness. Mom, keep up the good work. We will keep quiet."
"Well, be friendly."
After saying that, Su Shi’s mother retreated back into the room.
"You really can switch so easily."
Su Shi immediately lowered her voice,
"Nani? Are you dissatisfied?"
"You really know how to pretend."
"Shh! Mommy will hear you."
"So your true self is when you're with me, and you're just pretending to be a good kid when you're with Mom? Then what about when you're with Xiangzi? If that's really where you think you belong, why do you act like a good kid in front of Xiangzi just as you do in front of your mom?"
"..."
"I'm not trying to deny your feelings for CRYCHIC. CRYCHIC is CRYCHIC. Now is the time to change your face and get along with your current teammates. Why not treat Aine and the others the same way you treat me."
“…After all this talk…Aine, Aine…you’re only doing this for Ano-chan, right? Not for the band, and not for me…”
"I can't help it. Aine is my girlfriend."
"Ah... this is so awkward. I need to popularize the nickname Pochi from now on, otherwise it always feels a bit weird."
"How dare you say that? You clearly often go to nightclubs...brothels."
Su Shi clenched her fists. After she met Chaoyang, she actually inquired about and heard about the reputation of Chaoyang from the Fengchuan family.
But Chaoyang had no intention of defending himself, instead he answered with his head held high and his hands on his hips.
"Rich second-generations are like this, there's nothing you can do about it. It's true that this is mainly for Aine, but... it's also for you, Xiangzi, and Mu."
"Mu-chan?"
"Mu is also suffering, being caught between you and Xiangzi. On the one hand, she doesn't want to betray Xiangzi, but on the other hand, she values her relationship with you. Including the day when you and CRYCHIC disbanded, her main purpose was at least to cooperate with Xiangzi. Although she is not good at speaking and her emotions are not very volatile, she would throw things at me when I cursed you behind your back."
"...You... have come into contact with Mutsu-chan!? Don't attack her! Otherwise..."
Su Shi suddenly looked up impatiently, a protective warning in her tone.
"Otherwise I really won't let you go."
Chaoyang raised his hand.
"I'm not interested in her. Although she's certainly cute, I'm sorry that my XP doesn't include mukou."
Su Shi relaxed a little, but still looked at Chaoyang warily, her eyes revealing distrust.
"You always talk about other people's feelings so easily. Do you really understand us?"
"I don't know, but at least I believe that what you said while you were sleeping on my back was true. So I used to dislike you a lot, but now I don't hate you anymore."
"What is this, mercy?"
"No... Let's stop here today. It's getting late, and your mother won't be worried if I stay here all the time. They have training tomorrow, so why don't you come along? This band isn't a replacement for CRYCHIC, but it might be another place where you can fit in. No need to answer now... Xiangzi will definitely not form a CRYCHIC with you, because she's going to form a band with someone else, a professional, commercial band that will debut soon. Xiangzi didn't say this information needed to be kept secret, so I told you."
After saying that, Chaoyang drank the black tea in one gulp, fulfilling Su Shi’s words and leaving after finishing it.
Su Shi just lowered her head, thinking about Chaoyang's words, feeling a little confused and shocked for a moment. Chaoyang's footsteps gradually faded away, and she looked up at his back as he disappeared out the door. The empty living room once again returned to peace.
309. Compound
"Hey hey hey...Ju, did something like this actually happen?"
It was already the next day, and Chaoyang and Pochi were sitting in the RING next to Takamatsu Deng.
Chaoyang told them what happened to Su Shi yesterday, of course omitting the part where he went to Su Shi's house.
The main point is that Xiangzi has completely cut off ties with the past.
At this moment, Takamatsu Deng looked depressed. Although she did not want to get CRYCHIC back like Suyo, but like Suyo, CRYCHIC was a place that recognized and accepted her. The difference was that she felt that this band was as important as CRYCHIC, including Aine and Lenai.
"Saki-chan..."
Chaoyang understood that Gao Songdeng was also sad because of Xiangzi's words.
"Xiangzi's words were not only spoken to Su Shi, but also to the irresponsible self of the past who could make promises at will. So don't take them too seriously."
“…Soyo-chan is lost too…”
Gao Songdeng did not listen to Chaoyang's words of comfort.
