"Ah, Xiao Mu, you're still here?"
Mu got up and left, and despite hearing Su Shi's apologies and attempts to persuade her to stay, she did not stop.
One heart, wounded on both sides
Looking at the empty house that had fallen silent once more.
Su Shi lay on the sofa, staring at the blank ceiling, lost in thought.
PS:
Chapter 56 Surprise
In stark contrast to the somber and lonely atmosphere at Su Shi's home, the stars were bustling with activity today.
When Chen saw the eager, prickly crowd gathering at his doorstep, he knew something big was going to happen that afternoon.
He subtly glanced at Xiangzi beside him with concern, and after receiving a slight nod from her, he temporarily suppressed his worries.
With such a large army pressing in, how could Cici possibly escape their grasp?
Rupa smiled and took out an eye mask for Chen to put on. Together with Tao Xiang, the two of them sandwiched Chen in the middle, guiding him in the darkness.
Finally, Chen was forced into a chair, with Rencai left beside him as a watchdog to prevent him from removing his blindfold.
Chen didn't ask Rencai about it, since it was a surprise and it was better to let him reveal it himself in the end.
Rencai looked a little disappointed; she wanted to see Chen's curious expression and whet his appetite!

As Momoka called out, Nina took Chen's hand and pulled him toward the unknown.
After Rencai playfully gestured in his ear that he could remove his blindfold, what came into Chen's view was not the piercing crowd.
Instead, it was on stage, smiling at him, that the band members ended their performance.
The smile in Hongxia's eyes could no longer be concealed as she began her opening remarks on stage.
Boqi was embarrassed because he had kept this from Chen, and didn't dare to look Chen in the eye.
Miss Ryo smiled faintly upon seeing Chen's surprised expression, which made Miss Kita swoon.
Of course, Miss Kita also greeted Chen Haohao with her eyes.
"We are the End Band! This should be considered our first official stage performance."
Chen was very close to the stage. He didn't notice that he was actually the only audience member.
The other spectators were Ms. PA and Ms. Xingge behind him.
Today's live performance was actually a test given to them by the store manager.
However, because of their previous experience bringing Renna along, the members of CiCi already knew the band members quite well.
When Liang mentioned in the group chat that she wanted to invite Chen to come and watch their assessment, the rest of the group thought it was a good idea and decided to include them.
So they put their heads together and decided to give Chen a surprise this Sunday.
Thus, this special live performance, dedicated solely to one person, was successfully organized.
"We're so happy to let everyone hear our music!"
"Ah, we have a member who is currently unable to participate in the performance due to injury. It's a bit of a shame."
"Today's performance was also to allow him to focus on his recovery. To tell him that our band is fine! To tell him not to worry too much."
"Because we will always wait for him!"
"Please listen to our performance~ Guitar and the lonely blue planet!"
As Hongxia and Chen locked eyes, after Hongxia finished her opening remarks about the land (=Er Ershan, Siba),
She enthusiastically struck her drumsticks, reminding her teammates to get ready to join the rhythm.
As the pink-haired, red-haired, and blue-haired individuals on stage locked eyes, the performance officially began.
When it comes to songwriting, there are ways to take shortcuts.
She knew Chen's identity as a time traveler, and she also knew that he had all the finished lyrics.
However, writing something like that would be too opportunistic.
Moreover, what she wanted to express was completely different from what Ichiri in that world had, wasn't it?
At least, she is not alone on this lonely blue planet now.
It was predictable that she would become friends with everyone from the band that ended, and with the rest of the band.
She also has two people she wants to spend her life with—she has Chen, and she has Xiangzi.
She no longer felt lost about the future or afraid of loneliness.
Because her future is certain, and the future she will spend with Chen will surely be wonderful.
Therefore, she poured all her feelings for Chen into her songs.
She wanted Chen to understand that she was who she was, that she was special, and that she belonged only to Chen—Yili.
Her hands plucked the strings harder, and she raised her head, gazing into his passionate eyes.
For Kita, Chen is also special.
It was Chen who brought Kita-san back, giving her the courage to stay in the band.
Although Chen couldn't participate in practice, the time he spent with the band after the break was genuine.
Chen was present most of the time during their practice sessions to cheer them on.
I also ran errands for you, doing odd jobs as the water dispenser manager. He's never stingy with his encouragement for Kita.
Feeling deeply indebted to everyone who had left the band, Chen always gave them his all during practice sessions, offering them emotional support.
Subtly, in Kita's heart, Chen is also an important friend. Therefore, she put her heart and soul into today's live performance.
Chen Zai Liang's place in Miss Chen's heart needs no further explanation; he just doesn't know it himself.
Hongxia's assessment of Chen was quite simple.
He was the "soul" of the band that ended.
Although Chen was always worried that he owed them a lot, Hongxia never felt that way.
From her perspective, aside from Liang, Chen's importance to the three of them was unparalleled.
Without Chen, she wouldn't have been able to successfully invite him to Yili.
Without Chen, they still don't have a lead singer.
Not to mention that she can now perform smoothly on stage and pass her sister's test.
Liang, the only one who seemed to have little interaction with Chen, also showed great interest in him.
If Chen had left, the complete End Band might not exist now.
No, it's not even in its complete form yet~
After all, their key members were still watching their performance from the audience, unable to participate.
But it's okay, they'll wait for Chen.
"Seriously, what a stunt..."
"The more you act like this, the more I feel sorry for you, don't I?"
This is Chen's heartfelt voice.
He contributed absolutely nothing to ending the band's run; on the contrary, his absence only held everyone back.
Not counting the distance, they had already secretly pledged their lives to each other.
But Ryo, Nijika, and Kita value him so much and tolerate him.
It deeply touched the softest part of Chen's heart.
What reason could he possibly have to wrong these girls who valued him so much?
We can't make the same mistake again; good people shouldn't be held at gunpoint.
Only ending the band's reign was his true haven.
Thank you everyone for coming!
After the performance, Hongxia led everyone back to the backstage area.
Judging from the store manager's expression, there shouldn't be any problems.
Chen's phone rang at that moment; it was a message from Xiangzi.
She said that Su Shi's matter had been resolved, and then asked about Chen's current location.
After sending her the address of Fanxing, his second performance began.
As everyone took their places, the opening remarks were handed over to Momoka.
"Hello everyone, our band's name is New Kawasaki (tentative)."
Looking helplessly at her team's drummer, vocalist, and keyboardist, Momoka didn't know what to say about this compromised name.
The band members have such different tastes in naming things! They simply can't reach a consensus!
Today's performance is specially prepared for one person.
"That person is downstairs right now. I won't name names, but he knows who it is."
Tao Xiang's words drew everyone's attention to a young man.
"His importance to us can be described like this—without him, our band wouldn't exist."
The band members, having put down their instruments, then came to Chen's side.
Their feelings are the same as everyone else's.
At this moment, Chen Cai noticed that, apart from the store manager and Ms. PA in the back, there were no other spectators in the vast starry sky.
Chen truly felt this surprise and honor.
He clenched his fist hesitantly, closed his eyes, and continued listening to Momoka's words.
Aside from our Miss Anhe, everyone else, including Cici, has an inseparable bond with Chen.
"But he's a jerk too. I was the one who invited him to join the band first, but after he rejected me, he went to join another band."
Tao Xiang's tone was somewhat resentful; she was truly troubled by Chen's choice.
The band members held completely opposite feelings about Momoka's resentment.
After all, Chen is an official member of their band, and no one can take him away!
"But the band exists because of this bastard, so we're dedicating our song to him, the de facto founder."
"You'd better feel the emotions we've poured into this, you little rascal!"
After baring her teeth and winking at Chen, Momoka left the microphone, giving the spotlight to Nina.
After gesturing to Miss Anhe behind him, a familiar melody rang in Chen's ears as her drumsticks overlapped.
"No matter how long you wait, nothing has changed..."
The Silent Fish, unfolding at this moment.
Compared to the original performance featuring only Nina, Ms. Anwa, and Momoka...
With Rupa and Ash joining the fray, even a fully-formed Spikeweed is still incredibly powerful.
The three of them: Momoka, Rupa, and Satoshi.
There's no need to use the song "II" to describe the bond between her and Chen.
Only they themselves know just how important Chen is to them.
So, Renna poured her emotions into her singing, and looked into Chen's eyes from the audience.
Her singing voice burst forth with all the emotions she had accumulated since arriving in Kawasaki.
Peach fragrance and aged flavor are special to citrus.
They were the ones she met on her first day in Kawasaki.
