Momoi Taro wants to form a "don" brother duo, but it's a music anime.

"I printed out a copy of the song that Taro composed for everyone in the group chat." Aine smiled, put one hand on her hip, and looked like she wanted some praise.

"You truly deserve to be called Little Ai Yin~ You're amazing~" Ruomai praised enthusiastically, and even improvised a drumbeat.

As Aine smiled, about to say something, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the person who entered was none other than Momoi Taro.

Aine hurriedly rummaged through her bag, while Taro habitually glanced around, then raised his head and shouted, "Hey—servants! Train—"

Aine's actions, however, disrupted Taro's call to her. She smiled and handed Taro a red folder.

Taro looked down at the red folder, then looked up at Aine and asked, "What's this?"

"Didn't Taro just post the sheet music in the group?" Aine explained with a smile, "I just happened to be going out, so I printed out a copy for everyone and put it in a folder. But I thought about it, everyone has one, so it can't be Taro who doesn't have one."

"So, I bought you a folder, but I didn't print out the sheet music that doesn't include yours. Taro, you can use this to hold the sheet music."

“I don’t need that kind of thing!” Taro raised his head, tapped his temple with his finger, and said, “My sheet music is in my head.”

"No way!" Aine firmly rejected the other's refusal: "Everyone else has it, how can Taro not have it? This is our band's signature color, so take good care of it!"

She forcefully pushed the folder into Taro's hands. Taro hesitated before accepting it, saying softly, "Okay, I'll take it... thank you."

When Taro thanked her, Aine didn't react as strongly as before; she simply smiled and accepted his thanks calmly.

Taro took a deep breath and shouted, "Alright! Ladies and gentlemen! Prepare to practice the new piece!"

“oi!” x4

After practice, Taro carefully put the folder into his bag. Aine scratched her head a little embarrassedly and said, "You don't have to be so careful."

"No, this is a gift, it should be treasured!" Taro said righteously, making Aine even more embarrassed. It was such an inexpensive little thing, yet it was being treated with such importance.

Ruomai's eyes flickered slightly, as if she was plotting something.

“Matcha parfait—” Lena tugged at Hailing’s clothes, reminding her.

Hailing nodded, put the bass in her bag, placed it in a corner, and said, "I know, go ahead."

"Taro, are you free later?" Aine asked Taro with a smile. Of course, she knew the answer; his schedule showed that Taro was free.

However, Taro's answer completely surprised her: "No, I have an appointment with someone later."

"Huh? Who is it?" Aine asked casually, pretending not to care, but her perked-up ears showed that she actually cared a lot about the question.

“Triangle First Blossom,” Taro answered matter-of-factly.

"Huh!? It's actually Hatsuka?" Aine covered her mouth in even greater surprise. "Although I knew Taro and Hatsuka knew each other last time, I didn't expect them to be so close. What does Hatsuka want with Taro?"

“Bass practice!” Taro answered calmly, head held high. This piqued Hailin's curiosity, who was about to leave, and she asked, “Mikado-kun is learning bass?”

"Okay, that's all for now, I should head over there." Taro replied and walked straight out the door.

Aine sighed. She was still thinking of asking Taro to go out and have some fun. She took out her phone again and looked at it. There was a message in the group chat that tagged everyone. It was a message from Minato-senpai.

"@Everyone should practice their individual parts thoroughly before practicing together. Let's not waste everyone's time."

Aine clicked her tongue slightly. Sure enough, Minato-senpai was a very strict person. What could she do? She could only practice.

With a pained expression, she slung her guitar over her shoulder, and then she felt something press on her shoulder. She turned her head to look.

Ruomai looked at her with deep affection, then touched Aiyin's cheek and said, "My dear princess, may I have the honor of inviting you to join me on this excursion?"

Ai Yin tilted her head and asked, "Is it part of the acting class?"

Ruomai's face immediately returned to normal, and she complained to Aiyin, "Honestly, little Aiyin, at least give me some response."

“Because…” Ai Yin touched her lips and said softly, “Ruo Mai’s performance didn’t have that…emm, how should I put it? That feeling of being moved?”

Hailing, who hadn't left yet, felt a slight stirring in her heart. Was now the perfect time to put her daily joke into practice? So she said, "If Taro were to say it, would you feel a flutter in your heart?"

Following Hailing's words, Aine raised her head slightly and thought for a moment, then replaced Ruomai's face with Taro's...

She shook her head violently, rubbing her arms together, and said, "No, no, that's too cheesy, I can't stand it!"

Ruomai heard this and gave a strange smile. If Aine can't accept it, then finding someone else isn't a bad idea.

Thinking this, she fixed her gaze on the now empty doorway. The image of that red-clad figure seemed to reappear before her eyes.

Nagasaki Motoyo walked along the road, counting her inventory. Little Lantern's throat lozenges were almost gone and needed to be replenished.

And then Lixi's drumsticks... what's that?

Nagasaki Motoyo, who was thinking about replenishing her teammates' supplies, spotted the voice of a young man in a red jacket in the distance.

Mr. Momoi? What are you doing here?

Without thinking too much, Su Shi wanted to go up and say hello, but there was still some distance between them as Su Shi approached Momoi Taro.

Taro was already standing in front of the room and rang the doorbell. Within seconds, a blonde girl stood before Taro with a bright, sunny smile.

Then, Nagasaki Motoyo stopped in her tracks, her pupils trembling as if trying to break free of their sockets.

Because this blonde girl is not only the member of the girl idol group sumimi who often appears on TV, but also the member of the same group. Although Nagasaki Motoyo doesn't pay much attention to these things, she can still occasionally see their music videos on TV.

This wasn't what surprised Nagasaki Motoyo. What surprised her was that Mikami Hatsuka stepped aside to let Momoi Taro into the room, her smile growing brighter and brighter, as if they were in some kind of intimate relationship.

Momoi Taro and... Mikami Hatsuka? No, no, there must be some misunderstanding. Even so, it's a bit much for the two of them to be in the same room.

If a celebrity were to be photographed doing something... it would probably have a very troublesome impact on Mr. Momoi.

Nagasaki Motoyo glanced unwillingly at the empty house entrance, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down.

With things having come to this, she had no interest in shopping or anything like that. She could only hold the throat lozenges she had given to Gao Songdeng in her hand and head towards the practice room.

Mygo also practiced today. Momoi Taro finalized the sheet music this morning, but the members of Mygo didn't plan to practice it.

This is a rather complex arrangement, and when not everyone can be present, group rehearsals may not be as effective as individual practice.

They planned to practice the song they had decided on beforehand. Gao Songdeng's lyrics from yesterday were arranged today by Lixi and Xiangzi, who were working hard to complete the music.

Today, of course, we're going to practice "The Starry Night's Call." Led by Li Xi, everyone began their practice.

"Su Shi! You've made a mistake again!" Li Xi scolded sternly. Su Shi clicked her tongue slightly, but soon sighed.

This made Lixi a little confused. She said somewhat awkwardly, "Hey, what's wrong with you? If you're in a bad mood... how about... take a break today?"

Su Shi shook her head slightly and said softly, "I just saw a confusing scene, so I was a little distracted... I'm sorry, I'll adjust."

Although she said this, Su Shi secretly longed to tell everyone about it. After all, the matter had shocked her quite a bit, and she also had a mischievous thought of shocking everyone else as well.

In the practice room, Wakaba Mutsu and Takamatsu Akari just looked at Su Shi with concern, while Riki was a little worried, wondering if she had said something wrong.

Li Xi was blaming herself for saying something wrong again. Xiangzi looked around and finally asked, "What did Su Shi see?"

"Actually, I saw Mr. Momoi..." As soon as Su Shi said this, everyone in the practice room involuntarily perked up their ears, and even the self-reproaching Li Xi couldn't help but look over there.

Su Shi took a deep breath and said, "On the way here, I saw Momoi Taro being pulled into the room by Sumi's Misaki Hatsuka."

It was quiet; no one dared to speak in the practice room. After a long while, Li Xi finally confirmed in disbelief:

"Triangle Chuhua...? Are you sure you didn't see wrong?" Li Xi clicked her tongue. If her idol were alone in a room with a man, it would definitely cause a huge social uproar.

"Den-"

The person who reacted the most was naturally Toyokawa Shoko. Her pupils dilated in shock, and she slammed her hand on the keyboard, which made a loud noise.

"Sushi, what you just said, is it true?" She stood up straight, her gaze fixed intently on the girl with long flaxen hair: "Are you sure what you saw was Sumi's Hatsuka?"

The oppressive feeling emanating from Toyokawa Shoko made her involuntarily take two steps back. What was going on?

She forced herself to say, "Um...yes, it's true..." she said, her voice slightly stammering.

It was clear that Su Shi's expression was not one of lying. Toyokawa Shoko took a deep breath and gave a fake smile: "I'm very sorry, I have important business to attend to right now, so I'll have to leave now."

After saying that, she gave a stiff smile and bowed. Her face visibly turned ashen.

The other four members of Mygo were left looking at each other in bewilderment. Although they knew that Toyokawa Shoko's reaction would be significant, such a strong reaction was still unexpected.

Xiangzi emerged from the practice room with a livid face, inwardly groaning, "Senior, why did you have to choose Chu Hua of all people?"

It's not that I have any problem with Hatsuka, but Hatsuka is a stalker! And a yandere at that, a very dangerous person!

No, we must rescue the senior from Chu Hua's side.

With that thought in mind, Xiangzi resolutely took out his phone and started a voice call.

beep - beep -

The sound of waiting seemed incredibly long to Xiangzi today. Each beep felt like a heavy hammer tormenting his heart.

What are the senior and Chu Hua doing right now? Holding hands? Kissing? Or have they already—

She clutched her face in terror, her contorted face screaming like that famous painting. She didn't know how much time had passed before the agonizing sound of waiting finally ceased.

However, what followed was even more agonizing... the communication had been cut off.

Xiangzi's heart skipped a beat. Had the call... ended?

She felt as if a string in her brain had snapped instantly; Chu Hua had always answered her calls before.

In an instant, tens of thousands of words of images that couldn't pass censorship flashed through Xiangzi's mind. His face flushed red, and he stretched his arms out in front of his chest, waving them vigorously.

"Dah... Dame de stockings!" Her little hands waved more and more frantically: "This kind of impure thing... is absolutely damn de stockings!"

"Oh, isn't this Toyokawa-kun?"

A voice came from not far away. Toyokawa Shoko looked up and saw that it was Minato, the pink-haired girl. "Get away from me, I don't have time for you right now."

Although she was thinking this in her heart, Xiangzi still wore a perfect expression and said with a light laugh, "Oh, it's Chihaya-kun. Didn't the band practice today?"

Instinctively, she asked for information about Momoi Taro. Aine didn't think too much about it and explained with a smile, "Our band practice ended a long time ago. Now I'm on a date with Ruomai."

"It's over!?" This further confirms that the news Su Shi brought was correct.

“Yes…” Aine was startled; she hadn’t expected Toyokawa Shoko to react so strongly.

She looked at Toyokawa Shoko with some hesitation and said softly, "Um... Toyokawa-san, are you alright? You look terrible."

"No... thank you for your concern," she said with a slight bow, and then her phone rang loudly.

Xiangzi picked up his phone and glanced at it. His expression changed, and then he bowed slightly to Aine and said, "Since Chihaya is having a get-together with her bandmates, I shouldn't bother you any longer. Please excuse me."

Then she quickly left Aine's side, leaving Aine looking at her back with a puzzled expression.
