In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

Chapter 76 Matcha Buffy.

"Lixi hates the inferiority complex she gets from me."

Shiina Maki typed.

"understood."

Chen Xinghua clicked on the virtual keyboard, "Because Li Xi has been compared to you every day since he was a child, and he still can't win."

He probably understood why Shiina Riki put so much pressure on herself, because she had an "other people's child" in her family who had been with her since she was a child.

It is painful enough for most people to be compared with "other people's kids" by their relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year, such as the one who earned a million dollars or the one who got into Tsinghua University.

And Shiina Riki... every day is like New Year's Day for her, and there is no time to stop.

After all, no matter how outstanding “other people’s children” are, they can never live in your house.

And your sister can really live in your room.

"So I put a lot of pressure on myself, trying desperately to prove that she can be as good as you."

Chen Xinghua feels that high school girls like Shiina Riki who are pressured by "other people's children" every day will either grow up to look like they don't care about anything.

She is better at sports than me, yes.

She did better than me in the exam, yes.

She is better at music than me, yes.

In short, that’s right, right, right. When you encounter difficulties, just do your best.

Or maybe you grow up to be like Tatsuki Shiina, putting a lot of pressure on yourself and trying hard to prove that you are no worse than that "other people's child".

Shiina Maki's avatar appeared in the chat box again.

"It can also be understood that way."

"But no one has ever compared Lixi to me."

Chen Xinghua curled his lips, copied the above chat records of Shiina Maki, modified them slightly, and sent them over.

"Because the most common thing they said to Lixi was... Lixi, you should learn more from your sister."

"Let's compare them. Regardless of whether we can win or not, at least we should acknowledge that both sides are rivals who can stand on the same stage."

"But if you're talking about learning, then I can only assume that you've surpassed Li Xi in all aspects."

"Lixi can't beat you no matter what, so I can only learn."

Now Chen Xinghua was a little curious about what kind of perfect superhuman Shiina Maki was. She could actually surpass Shiina Ryuki in study, sports, interpersonal relationships, and music. This made her feel inferior and she felt that she was an incompetent person compared to her sister.

Chen Xinghua didn't know much about their studies, so it was hard to say.

The interpersonal relationship between the two of them... well, with Shiina Riki's stress-prone personality, any normal character, such as the red-haired character named Kita, would make Shiina Riki unable to see their backs.

But when it comes to music and sports... Chen Xinghua is a little curious about how superhuman a superman can be who can make a drummer who plays over 190 BPM feel inferior.

You should know that even for an average adult male who has undergone several years of drumming training, more than 190 BPM is a daunting challenge.

Not to mention girls who are naturally much weaker than boys.

So is Maki Shiina a musical superhero who can lift herself up with one hand?

Shiina Maki's avatar was silent for a while, and no new messages were sent for a long time.

"Can I trouble you with something?"

Chen Xinghua looked at the latest news about Shiina Maki and subconsciously leaned towards the wall behind him.

"what's up."

"Can you tell Lixi that it was you who sent her home today, not me?"

As soon as the news about Shiina Maki came out, Chen Xinghua straightened up his body.

"Because if she knew I was the one who sent her home, it might trigger her inferiority complex."

Shiina Maki continued to reply.

"Lixi stayed up late arranging music just to prove one thing: that she could reach my level."

"But if Lixi knew that I had discovered that she fell asleep because of staying up late composing music."

"Then Lixi will think that even if she puts in extraordinary efforts, she still can't achieve the results that I can easily achieve."

"This was a fatal blow to her."

"So can you agree to my request?"

"A request from a sister who wants to take care of her sister."

Chen Xinghua was stunned, thought for a while, and then pressed three keys on the virtual keyboard.

"OK."

Almost the next second after Chen Xinghua sent the message, Shiina Maki popped up.

"Great."

"If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know."

Chen Xinghua touched the side of his face and replied to Shiina Maki: "I do have a favor to ask you."

"First, whether it's cutting off the power, conducting room checks, or shutting off the WiFi, whatever means are used, even if it means forcing her to sleep, just make sure she doesn't stay up late."

"Staying up late and doing high-intensity exercise can really lead to sudden death."

"I'm really afraid that she will be sent to the hospital one day."

Just like Xiangzi.

Shiina Maki hesitated for a while before she was able to send a message to reply to Chen Xinghua.

"It seems Lixi has made some very good friends."

Chen Xinghua blinked. Friends? Are he and Shiina Riki friends?

Is that so?

"Let's get a couple's confession next, just in case she finds out something when she wakes up."

……

A few minutes later.

"Finally, let me ask you, what achievements have you made in music?"

Chen Xinghua typed the last sentence.

"My achievements are just average. I once served as the head of the wind band at Hanaoka Girls' Academy and won first place in a regional orchestra competition."

Shiina Maki replied.

Chen Xinghua pursed his lips, a little confused. How valuable is this award?

He didn't pay much attention to the knowledge of playing the flute, so he didn't quite understand what Shiina Maki said.

Chen Xinghua put down his sore arm and met Yao Lenai's heterochromatic eyes.

"Huh? Ah."

Yao Lenai stared at Chen Xinghua's black pupils with great interest. What an interesting man.

But no matter how interesting a man is, he can't owe her a cup of matcha parfait.

"Matcha Buffy."

"Matcha Buffy after practice."

Chen Xinghua pursed his lips.

"When did you appear here?"

“Never left.”

Yao Lenai took a few steps forward, closing the distance between himself and Chen Xinghua.

"Matcha parfait, matcha-flavored sencha candy, matcha-flavored snacks."

Chen Xinghua was a little surprised.

He hadn't felt the sound of Lenai walking at all just now, it was just like a cat.

Cats also walk as if they are having fun, without making any sound.

"Matcha Buffy."

Seeing that Chen Xinghua didn't respond, Yao Le Nai patted Chen Xinghua's shoulder angrily and said, "Matcha Buffy after practice."

"It's agreed."

Chapter 77 How about the amusement park?

Chen Xinghua subconsciously touched the box behind him that contained the keyboard. The money inside should be enough to buy enough Matcha Parfait to make Yao Lenai die.

"Well, if you want Lenna, I'll treat you to a matcha parfait."

After all, Chen Xinghua had accidentally encountered Xiangzi who had fainted on the road, and Aiyin who had also fainted on the street.

He put enough cash in the box to pay for the hospital bill for the beautiful girl who suddenly fainted.

Maybe I will meet a beautiful girl who fainted on the ground again in the future.

"But can you promise me one thing?"

"it is good."

The phrases used to address Lenai were always short and simple, "Also, call me Lenai."

Chen Xinghua nodded.

"Could you please not tell anyone what you just saw?"

Yao Lenai shook his head, looking like he didn't understand what Chen Xinghua was talking about.

"whats the matter?"

She touched her lips with her fingertips, looking a little confused.

Chen Xinghua replied: "Just now, an older sister sent Shiina Riki home."

"okay."

Kaname Lenai spread her hands towards Chen Xinghua, "So, what about Matcha Parfait?"

"follow me."

Chen Xinghua carried the box containing the keyboard and walked outside. "I'll take you to buy matcha parfait."

……

A cafe inside the RING.

Chihaya Aine sat in her seat feeling extremely bored. She wondered how long it would take for Xinghua to come over.

Ten minutes? Twenty minutes?

Chihaya Aine's raised legs swayed casually according to the girl's mood.

But no matter how long it takes, I will wait.

She bit her lip subconsciously, because we are good friends for life.

"Mr. Deng, aren't you going to order something?"

Deng lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"If you sit in a cafe and don't order anything, it will cause trouble for others."

Chihaya Aine looked at the light for a long time without any response, so she reminded him.
