The two of them lay breathlessly on the big bed, hugging each other's warmth and chatting about the private matters between lovers.

Under Xiangzi's deliberate guidance, the topic gradually turned to matters related to the band.

"Tenna-kun, what do you think of Mujica now?"

"It's pretty good. Although it's not very popular, it's in better shape than most professional bands."

Tian Nalin rubbed his cheek against the girl's smooth hair and replied.

When he stayed at home during the day, he had a good understanding of the status of several bands under his management, including Mujica, which is still under the agency. The income from a few albums alone, after deducting miscellaneous expenses, still brought in tens of millions of yen each month, equivalent to a monthly income of several million yuan.

As long as the current trend continues, Mujica will not be much worse than Roselia on the Blue Planet, and there is even a possibility of surpassing it.

After hearing the answer, Xiangzi hesitated for a moment and said, "Tenna-kun, I'm actually considering whether to disband Mujica."

"Disband Mujica! Why?"

Tian Nalin looked at the girl in his arms in surprise and doubt.

"Because I no longer need to live on Mujica."

Xiangzi rested his head on his chest, feeling guilty and not looking up to meet his gaze.

"But this is the band you formed yourself, Xiaoxiang. You said you would play Galaxy Battleship for the rest of your life."

"For a lifetime or something like that, that was just an impulsive decision at the time."

Xiangzi said something against his will, "Besides, Tianna-kun, you have started a company now. I would rather run it with you instead of focusing on the band."

"That's unnecessary, Xiaoxiang. You've seen Aunt Youxiang's abilities. Even if we don't intervene, the business will still operate normally."

Tian Nalin persuaded earnestly, "On the other hand, what will happen to everyone if Mujica disbands?"

"Muhe and Chuhua joined because of me, and Youtian Temple just wants fame and fortune. It's just that Hailing needs to be dealt with, and I will take care of that."

Xiangzi insisted on his own opinion. In order to sever the ties between Tian Nalin and those people and prevent him from being hurt again, this step was necessary, even if it meant breaking the oath they had made.

Sensing that the girl had made up her mind, Tian Nalin nodded heavily, "I understand. I respect your choice."

"Thank you, Tenna-kun."

Xiangzi didn't say anything else. The girl buried her head deeper, as if she was avoiding something.

The room fell silent, leaving only the sound of the two people's even breathing.

Suddenly, Tian Nalin realized that he and Xiangzi had become lovers, and Chuhua must be very unhappy. Perhaps the real reason for Mujica's suspension of activities was related to this incident, rather than the reason given by the girl.

So the fundamental reason they wanted to disband Mujica was most likely because of him, which also explains why everyone avoided talking about Chuhua. After all, once emotional disputes arise within the band, breakup is not far away.

Thinking of this, Tian Nalin felt even more depressed and sincerely felt guilty about it.

……

The next morning, at the performing arts agency.

Tenna Lin drove here to fulfill his previous agreement with Junda Mana and perform a signature song and dance for the latter's new idol group.

Under the guidance of the staff, he met Mana Junda and two new members, all of whom were young and lively beauties who could meet the spiritual needs of the majority of fans.

After seeing the style of the new group and listening to the individual's request, Tian Nalin decided to move the songs from "My Favorite Kid" to the girls. Anyway, Bon Bon has also collaborated with this anime, so it is just right.

After finishing the above tasks, he saw that it was still early, so he went to Mujica's practice room. He wanted to see what the working environment of his soon-to-disband band was like on a daily basis, hoping that it would bring back some relevant memories.

But when Nalin walked to the door of the practice room that day, he faintly heard a familiar melody coming from inside. It was his favorite Green Day band's famous song "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams", played by bass.

He had a guess in his mind, so he walked forward and pushed open the sealed door. Sure enough, he saw Hachiman Kailing standing in her seat holding a bass and playing a solo.

The girl was wearing a set of cool and rebellious alternative outfits, with a black leather jacket and a red belly-baring short-sleeved shirt on the upper body, and black jeans and thick-soled leather boots on the lower body.

Low notes came from the lavender bass strings, just like Hai Ling's handsome face shrouded in haze, looking sad and lonely.

Noticing someone intruding without permission, Hai Ling frowned slightly and cast an unhappy glance towards the door. But after seeing the intruder's face clearly, the girl's brows relaxed and her expression returned to her usual calm.

Tian Nalin greeted her awkwardly, "Hello, Hailing. Why are you here alone?"

At the same time, he thought: [Today is Tuesday, which is a normal class day at Hanasakigawa Academy. Could it be that Hailing skipped class?]

"In Tianna-san's heart, am I a good girl who follows the rules?"

Hai Ling asked back in a calm tone.

Tian Nalin thought so too. How could someone who likes playing heavy metal rock music not have a rebellious heart? It is more like he expresses his emotions through music because he is too depressed and angry in life.

Tian Nalin didn't know what to say afterwards, because his current impression of Hai Ling was still stuck in various secondary creations, and he didn't have the familiarity he had before he lost his memory. He could only smile awkwardly.

Hai Ling understood his situation and took the initiative to invite him, "Tian Na-san, do you want to come with us?"

"it is good."

Tian Nalin readily agreed, took out a spare guitar from the corner and plugged it in.

As the saying goes, music is the best language of communication, requiring no translation, transcending borders and becoming a bridge of connection between people. He believed that through this opportunity, he would be able to quickly become familiar with the girl.

During the tuning process, Tian Nalin felt that Hai Ling was always staring at him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

After getting familiar with the feel of the spare guitar, Tian Nalin looked at the other party and asked, "Hai Ling, what should we play?"

"Take that song for example. I've only heard you hum it while driving, Tianna-san, but I've never heard the full version."

Hai Ling withdrew her gaze and got ready to play.

"no problem."

The song "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is like most of Green Day's works, with simple and pleasant chords. Judging from the part that Hai Ling just performed, there is no need to worry that the other party will not be able to keep up.

Then Tian Nalin took the lead in playing the prelude, and when Hai Ling caught up with the beat, he sang in his clear voice:

(I walk on a lonely road. This is the only road I know. I don’t know where it leads, but for me this is my destination. I will walk alone...)

As the song progressed, Tian Nalin and Hai Ling gradually developed a mysterious state of resonance, as if their souls were following a series of leaping notes and having an in-depth communication.

He felt the girl's thoughts hidden deep in her heart.

The loneliness, reluctance, and guilt for the past were almost exactly the same emotions he felt last night when he learned that Mujica was going to disband because of him.

(I will walk forward alone, with only my shadow to accompany me. I can vaguely hear the faint sound of my heartbeat. Sometimes I also hope that someone outside the road can find me, but until then, I can only move forward alone...)

Chapter 16: On your pirate ship.

After the song ended, Tian Nalin and Hai Ling looked at each other, with complex emotions in their eyes.

He already understood why the girl skipped classes to play the bass here alone. She was reminiscing about the time when everyone played together here and wanted to stay a little longer before the band officially disbanded.

"Hai Ling, do you all know Xiao Xiang's decision?"

"Ah."

Hai Ling responded softly without any extra words.

Tian Nalin stammered a few times, remembering the answer he gave Xiangzi last night, and could only say, "I'm sorry."

"You don't have to apologize, Tenna-san. Everyone knows it's not your fault."

Hai Ling comforted him in a rare soft voice.

Hearing the girl say this, Tian Nalin felt even more guilty.

In a compensatory mood, he thought for a moment and said, "Hai Ling, even if the band disbands, we are still friends. We can still hang out together like before."

As he was playing, Tian Nalin recalled a memory of a time in a recording studio, when he, Hai Ling, and others were recording footage for a new song. Back then, they didn't have as many worries as they do now, and the atmosphere was relaxed and joyful, immersed in the world of music.

"Nice suggestion."

Hai Ling remained silent. The girl neither explicitly refused nor agreed.

Seeing this, Tian Nalin's guitar-holding hand drooped limply, his expression inevitably becoming gloomy. Could it be that they couldn't even be friends anymore...

Ignoring his mood changes, Hai Ling unplugged the bass and placed it on a shelf nearby, then walked towards the door of the practice room.

"Tina-san, I'm leaving first."

"Okay, goodbye Hailing."

Tian Nalin forced a smile and said goodbye.

"See you tomorrow."

Hai Ling opened the door and left without looking back.

See you tomorrow?

After staring at the closed soundproof door for a while, Tian Nalin turned his attention to the bass that had not been taken away by its owner, and a guess came to his mind.

Could it be that Hai Ling will come here tomorrow?

With this glimmer of hope, Tian Nalin took out his cell phone and prepared to send messages to Miao Meng and Ruo Yemu.

But after careful consideration, he rescinded his invitation to Wakaba Mutsu. After all, it was not a good behavior to ask someone to skip school. Judging from the behavior of Chairman Yue Zhisen, he would probably give severe punishment.

Tian Nalin: Dear Meow Meng, are you free to come to the office tomorrow morning? I would like to ask you for a favor.

*Nyamuchi: Alin, what do you want to do?

Tian Nalin: I found out that I have an account on the U2B video website. Many fans left messages urging me to release new works. I have to give an explanation.

*Nyamuchi:……

*Nyamuchi: It’s okay to help, but we suggest that Alin get Xiangzi’s permission first.

Tian Nalin: Xiaoxiang is not my master, why should I get her consent?

*Nyamuchi: Okay, let me be frank with you. If something goes wrong, don’t blame me.

Tian Nalin: Don’t worry, Miao Meng will kiss you, just consider it as a favor I owe you.

In reality, Miao Meng, who had just woken up, saw this sentence and muttered to himself with a pout, "Humph, another empty promise like this. They clearly still owe me a request."

But despite complaining, Miao Meng still agreed, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose.

……

After leaving the office, Tian Nalin drove to Space and followed Nagasaki Youxiang to familiarize himself with the current situation of the company, but left before the afternoon business peak.

Seeing his hands-off attitude, Nagasaki Tomoka teased him, "Mr. Tenna is such a busy man! He doesn't even have time to take care of his own company."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Tian Nalin's face, and he thought to himself: I'm busy going on a date with your daughter...

But on the surface, he laughed it off and said, "I mainly recognize you, Aunt Youxiang. Your ability is more than enough to run this place."

"Really? Well, there's really nothing we can do about it."

Nagasaki Tomoka continued to joke, "It's because both mother and daughter got on board Mr. Tenna's pirate ship."

These words frightened Tian Nalin so much that he quickly looked around and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was paying attention to their conversation.

"Aunt Youxiang, there are some things you shouldn't say carelessly. It can easily cause misunderstandings."

He stated seriously, "I have reasons why I have to leave."

"Alright, alright. I understand Mr. Tianna's difficulties. Just go ahead and get busy."

Nagasaki Tomoka gave him a meaningful smile and turned back to work.

This smile made Tian Nalin suspicious. Could it be that the other party discovered that he had a harem?

The next second, he denied this speculation.

No, if you really find out that the other person definitely doesn't have this attitude, then you'd better not be suspicious, as that will easily expose your true colors.

Shaking his head, Tian Nalin walked out of the company and drove back to his residence in Chihaya Town.

Then he sent a message to Su Shi on his mobile phone, asking her to go home and gather before going on a date, as the distance between the two places was very short anyway.

Not long after, Su Shi, who had changed out of her school uniform, rang the doorbell. Tian Nalin opened the door and let the girl in. Before closing the door, he watched for a while to see if anyone was following her.

Seeing him acting like an underground liaison, Su Shi asked with confusion: "Lin, what happened?"

"Is such that."

Tian Nalin turned around and explained his concerns.

The conversation with Nagasaki Tomoka just now reminded him that his relationship with the girls, except for Xiangzi, should not be made public.

Especially as the MyGO band becomes more and more famous, it will be easier for girls to recognize him when they go out. If they see him with different people every day, he will definitely be exposed.
