Anime Crossover Band, Rock Girl Won't Let Me Go

Chapter 207 The Sudden Outburst of Inferiority

"Should we...go see the fireworks last?"

Just as the two were about to head home, Shiina Tatsuki suddenly whispered those words.

Li Xi glanced at Bai Qiu lightly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

As she said those words, she felt her whole body tense up, and the panda plush toy under her arm was tightly gripped by her arm muscles.

Why would she suddenly say that?

It would have been fine if I had just gone back normally!

Feeling extremely shy, Li Xi thought with some annoyance.

But then she realized that she was reluctant to end this period of time so easily and go home.

Like an eternity, Li Xi waited for Bai Qiu's answer.

"sure!"

Fortunately, Bai Qiu didn't keep Li Xi waiting for long.

Hearing Li Xi's voice, Bai Qiu immediately put down the snack she was about to put in her mouth and gave Li Xi a hearty smile.

"It would be a shame to come to the temple fair and not see the fireworks."

Then, Bai Qiu raised the food in her hand again, saying, "Thank you for the Hiroshima okonomiyaki, Li Xi."

"You're welcome."

Shiina Tatsuki breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching the other person finish off their uneaten Hiroshima okonomiyaki as well.

Lixi's eyes widened slightly, and the blush on her face deepened.

Is it really that delicious?

"Let's go then, I know a way."

As if to conceal her own emotions, Shiina Riki spoke quickly and quickened her pace, walking ahead while making sure that Bai Qiu wouldn't fall too far behind her.

"Okay, wait for me."

Bai Qiu shook his head helplessly and quickly followed the other person.

It's just watching fireworks, what's there to be shy about?

Lixi is acting strangely tonight.

But Li Xi is kind of cute like this.

……

Well known.

Unlike the other members of Mygo, Chihaya Aine is a very popular person.

Besides mygo, she has other friends.

Chihaya Aine also has her own life.

For example, tonight, Ai-yin was invited by two classmates from junior high school to visit the temple fair.

It's a bit of a pity, I was planning to invite Qiuqiu to come along.

But it's okay, the band still has a long time ahead of them.

Hey hey!

Chihaya Ai chuckled to herself, a silly smile creeping onto her face.

"President Chihaya, I went to see your band's performance. Your original songs were great, and your performance was fantastic! I loved it!"

A classmate standing next to Ai Yin praised her with an admiring look, like a little fangirl.

"Thank you, we will continue to work hard."

Chihaya Aine nodded slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"But why don't you continue being the lead vocalist, President?"

"Well..."

Faced with this question, Chihaya Aine hesitated, pondering how to answer.

At this moment, another Japanese girl answered:

"That's because if President Chihaya were to play guitar and sing, the band would just become a one-woman show."

"I see. As expected of President Chihaya."

"It's not that exaggerated!"

Immediately, Chihaya Aine showed an embarrassed smile, but she was secretly very pleased.

"And another thing, President Chihaya, I heard that the guy in the band is your boyfriend, and that you gave up studying abroad and came back from England for him."

"Is this true? Can you bring it out so we can see it?"

"Huh?" Chihaya Aine was taken aback, her eyes widening slightly. "Boy-boyfriend?"

When did Qiuqiu become her boyfriend?

But... I didn't know it could be explained this way!

Then wouldn't that erase her only black history of deserting from London?

As Chihaya Aine thought this, her dark gray eyes gradually brightened.

"What's wrong, President Chihaya?"

"Isn't he your boyfriend?"

Chihaya Aine scratched her face, neither confirming nor denying.

She smiled and said, "He's been a bit busy lately!"

"Oh, what a pity!" the Japanese girl said.

There will be another chance next time!

Chihaya Aine smiled, and then when she looked up, she seemed to see two familiar figures.

It seems to be Qiuqiu and Lixi?

Chihaya Aine subconsciously narrowed her eyes, looking puzzled.

Just as she was about to go forward to investigate, several pedestrians blocked her view. By the time the pedestrians dispersed, the two familiar figures had already disappeared.

Aine's two companions also pulled her along to buy takoyaki.

Chihaya Aine could only think to herself, "Oh well, never mind."

If it were Tomorin, that would be one thing, but how could Qiuqiu possibly come to the temple fair with Riki?

I'll ask again on Monday.

……

"You're Shiina Maki's younger sister, right?"

On his way to the temple fair, Shiina Tatsuki was unexpectedly stopped in front of him by a middle-aged woman.

The other person looked at Li Xi with some surprise and asked:

"Yes, what's her name again?"

"...Lixi."

Shiina Tatsuki's smile froze.

Shiina Tatsuki was somewhat at a loss when this neighbor who suddenly appeared before her and knew her family suddenly appeared.

"Oh right, Lixi, it's Lixi!" The middle-aged woman slapped her forehead embarrassedly and said with a smile, "Look at my memory, I completely forgot."

"Her name is just like her sister's."

"Ah."

Shiina Tatsuki nodded and responded with a slight nasal sound.

"I heard your older sister, Maki, got into Waseda University?"

"And last year, he even led the school's wind band to win some kind of gold medal."

"Maki is so amazing. Riki is so lucky to have such a great older sister."

The middle-aged woman praised him with a smile, completely oblivious to the increasingly worsening look on Shiina Riki's face.

Shiina Riki pursed her lips, unable to speak.

"Lixi, I bought drinks."

At this moment, Bai Qiu, holding two drinks, walked up to Li Xi with a smile, temporarily interrupting the conversation.

"Lemonade or orange juice, which do you want?"

Bai Qiu also noticed the middle-aged woman chatting with Li Xi.

He gave the other person a strange look.

Is it an elder that Lixi knows?

But I always felt that something was off about Li Xi.

Seeing that there was another person next to Li Xi, the middle-aged woman also looked at Bai Qiu for a moment and asked Li Xi, "Li Xi, who is this?"

"My friends in the band."

Shiina Tatsuki answered, but dared not look at Bai Qiu, and his hands began to tremble slightly.

"Oh."

The middle-aged woman simply nodded, her attention returning to Shiina Tatsuki.

Her eyes lit up, and she asked:

"A band? Oh, a wind band like your sister's?"

"No," Shiina Ritsuki shook her head, "I play electric guitar, bass..."

"Okay, Auntie doesn't really know much about these things!"

Before Shiina Tatsuki could finish speaking, the middle-aged woman interrupted him with a nonchalant smile, then switched over to talk about what she was interested in.

"Which school does Lixi attend now?"

"I am in... Hanasaki River."

Shiina Tatsuki answered softly.

She thought her expression must look terrible right now.

Please...

Please, please stop asking!

Lixi pleaded bitterly in his heart.

For some reason, that feeling of inferiority, which she hadn't experienced for a while, returned to her at this moment.

And all of this seems to be even more extreme than ever before.

Why? No!

She didn't want Bai Qiu to see her incompetent side!

however……

"Hanakawa? Huh?" The middle-aged woman looked quite surprised and raised her voice, "Didn't Riki go to Yuukoka to study like her sister?"

"Well, no."

Seemingly unable to contain himself any longer, Shiina Tatsuki lowered his head and made muffled sounds.

"That's a bit of a shame!" The middle-aged woman shook her head a few times, smiling as if she had been through it all, and advised with a smile:

"Lixi needs to work harder too. Learn more from your sister and get into a good university."

"And that rock band... let's just forget about it! They sound so frivolous, it'll just waste our time..."

"Stop, stop talking!"

Shiina Riki suddenly looked up and shouted.

He didn't bother to look at Bai Qiu's expression, or rather, he didn't have the courage.

She squeezed into the crowd and ran away.

"Lixi?"

Bai Qiu reached out her hand in surprise.

"What happened to Lixi?"

The middle-aged woman was taken aback and looked at Bai Qiu in confusion.

"Auntie, Lixi's grades are excellent, she doesn't need you to lecture her! Also, please don't have this kind of stereotype about bands!"

With a curt remark, Bai Qiu, not wanting to waste any more words with the old lady, turned and chased after Li Xi without looking back.

Li Xi is the most important person now.
