Nogizaka 46's concert in Shanghai ended successfully.

This is the first overseas performance led entirely by next-generation aces, and after the graduation of a popular member like Asuka Saito, even the members themselves did not expect that they would be able to fill the house in Huaxia.

——I happened to hear about the operation, a very important reason is that Qiu Yang, a Chinese person, became popular in Neon, which also brought a lot of heat about Nogizaka to Huaxia and added a considerable number of overseas fans.

The most exciting part of the success of the show is Yoda, Mitsuki, and Hexi, who have high hopes from all parties. The success under pressure made the girls return to Neon's first celebration after the performance, and just toasted and cried with joy, hugging and sobbing.

But after crying, when the barbecue was served, everyone wiped away their tears at the speed of light and stared at the barbecue on the table with full attention.

- If you don't stare at it, the effort to wipe your eyes, obviously the meat that you have worked so hard to bake, may disappear.

"Buzz ......"

Just as He Xi Yaoxiang turned the meat with a clip, the mobile phone in her pocket suddenly vibrate.

"Really...... Who's ......?"

She reluctantly withdrew her gaze from the iron plate, and sure enough, just a moment when she took out her mobile phone, the piece of meat was somehow caught by a pair of chopsticks.

"Ahhh

But her irritability, when she saw the caller's name, instantly dissipated a lot - eh? How could he call? Are you here to congratulate me on a successful performance? Or is it a continuation of the topic last time, to ask the teacher about the crime?

"—Hey...... Brother Qiu Yang? What's wrong? ”

Because there were other members at the same table, He Xiyao Xiang was sneaky and lowered her voice slightly.

“……”

There was no interface on the other end of the phone, but the crisp sound of the glass and the table colliding could be faintly heard.

“…… Hey, I said, it's evening, it's just dark, why are you drinking? ”

“……”

There was still boundless silence, and He Xi suddenly became a little annoyed - what! Obviously, you took the initiative to call! What does it mean not to say a word!

Coupled with the anger of the meat that had just been robbed, she wanted to hang up the phone angrily.

"—Kakki-chan ......"

Just as she was about to press the call, her name was suddenly gently called on the other end of the phone, which made her heart tremble, and she almost didn't hold the phone steady.

“…… Well? What's wrong? ”

Although he simply called her, He Xi could vaguely feel that Brother Qiu Yang's state did not seem to be very good.

“…… Come...... Come for a drink? Right now. ”

His voice was muffled and hoarse, and it seemed that it wasn't just a matter of drinking in the evening—it was clearly drunk.

“…… Right now? Is it in the xxx store? ”

"Hmmm......"

"However, the celebration banquet has just started on my side, and I can't leave...... Why don't I finish eating and finish looking for you early? ”

“……”

The sound of breathing on the other end grew heavier, and it seemed that he had no ability to continue the conversation at all.

"What...... It's really ......."

He Xi Yaoxiang listened to Qiu Yang's snoring for almost a minute, and was sure that he should have fallen asleep, so he carefully hung up the phone - since he was unconscious, there was no need for him to rush over, and he would contact him after eating here.

Anyway, what's the situation with this guy, this is the point of dinner, and he is drunk like this? Fortunately, it is in an izakaya in the entertainment circle, otherwise if it is photographed by tabloid reporters, I am afraid that it will not end up with a notoriety like Kei Tanaka and an alcoholic.

"Next time, I'll have to persuade him......"

He Xi Yaoxiang put down her phone and returned to the dinner table, suddenly with a little excitement in her heart.

- After Brother Qiu Yang got drunk, although I don't know if it's the first one, I already think of me kakki!

……

……

—This guest...... Are you okay? ”

It was a clerk who woke up Qiu Yang who was familiar with the izakaya.

"Ahhh......h Sorry......"

Probably he was still on the phone one second, and the next second he suddenly fell headlong on the table, making the clerk worry about his life and health...... Qiu Yang moved his stiff neck and lumbar spine while burying his head and not facing the concerned eyes of the clerk.

"Another plum bar, a little less ice."

“…… Good. ”

The clerk's voice was a little hesitant in agreement—yes, no matter how many weirdos there are in the entertainment world, probably as well-informed as he is, he has never seen a weirdo like himself, waiting at the door of an izakaya every afternoon for three consecutive days, and drinking until it closes.

Moreover, he always opens the door for an hour and gets drunk at the speed of light.

"—your glass of plum wine."

The sound of the ice clashing pulled him back from his stupor, and he rubbed his temples as he took the glass that had been brought to him.

"Thank you."

He took a sip and nodded his head in thanks to the clerk.

"-That, Qiu Yangsang......"

It seemed that after a long hesitation, the clerk hesitated to speak.

“…… Qiu Yangsang, have you encountered any troubles? ”

“……”

Qiu Yang was silent, he understood the reason why the clerk was worried - after all, people who were depressed and drank alone for three days had to ask more questions for safety reasons, right?

"It's fine."

He pulled away a somewhat ugly smile.

"—It's just because these two days are relatively idle and my drinking buddy is not in Tokyo...... You know, that little girl. ”

"I see, it's rude, forgive me for talking too much......"

Qiu Yang waved his hand and took another sip. This reason is so convincing that even I almost believe it. But speaking of which......

He swiped the screen of his phone, revealing that he had called He Xi Yaoxiang thirty minutes ago.

“…… It's over, I'm not impressed at all......"

Qiu Yang vaguely remembered the action of "dialing out the phone", but he forgot the content of the phone call completely.

- Hawkers, but with his temperament, most of the time he was in a daze, begging her to come over and have a drink with him? Anyway, I'll stay here until closing, it doesn't matter.

Thinking of this, he took the initiative to greet the clerk in advance.

"For a moment...... If the little girl comes in for me, if I am drunk, she will wake me up, I am afraid she will be embarrassed. ”

"Understood."

The alcohol gradually spread in his brain, and in his confusion, he felt that the original complete fragment of troubles was gradually dismembered into fragmented words:

Nana Min, Muramatsu, Ran, Arrange, Deception, Love, Konno, Hypocrisy, Sony, Entertainment, Concealment, Chess Piece, Money, Power, Status......

- Getting stronger.

In a drowsy state, he didn't know how long he had been asleep.

"—Qiu Yangsang, Qiu Yangsang, wake up ......"

The clerk's voice seemed to sound far away, but his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't open them.

"Teacher Qiu Yang, are you okay......?"

In the next second, his head sank into something soft, accompanied by a slightly familiar, girlish body fragrance.

"Is it kakki-chan......"

Guessing the identity of the person who came, he vaguely felt that such intimate contact was not good, and wanted to struggle to break free, but he couldn't do anything.

- It's strange that Hexi has such a ...... Small, huh?

In a daze, he felt a cold liquid dripping down his cheeks.

……

……

"-Is it kakki-chan......"

Hearing the unconscious murmuring of the boy in his arms, Yoda Yuxi's tears immediately fell uncontrollably.

- Obviously, he is the only one who is willing to leave the celebration banquet and sneak here to find him, why is he still muttering the names of other girls?

The reason why she came here was just that at the dinner table just now, she vaguely heard He Xi Yaoxiang's call, as if she suddenly heard a strong cry in her heart.

"I'm going to see him."

So although he wasn't sure if he was at this izakaya that he had never been to and had only heard of, he and Tian Yuxi left the scene of the celebration banquet without hesitation.

Seeking benevolence, as soon as she pushed open the door of the izakaya and saw the back of the person lying on the bar, she knew that she had come to the right place - this was the first time the two met after half a year, the last time was the tail of summer, and this time, it was winter.

However, when he heard the name of Kakki from his mouth, the little joy of reuniting with Tian Yuxi that had just risen was immediately shattered.

- Nanamin's seniors and Asuka's seniors are also counted, why is it that a junior can be placed before him now? First come, first served, annual work sequence...... You'll give me one!"

"—the ......"

The clerk on the side probably noticed her appearance of a defeated dog with pear blossoms and rain, and was a little unbearable, so he comforted her.

"Qiu Yangsang and He Xisang, it's just the relationship between drinking friends, they are old customers here, please don't misunderstand......

“……”

Only then did Tian Yuxi know his gaffe, he hurriedly wiped his tears, and nodded to the waiter with some apologies and gratitude.

"Hey, wake up!"

Cleaning up her mood, she angrily pushed Qiu Yang buried in her chest - really, if she didn't know that he would become this unconscious as soon as he got dipped in wine, she thought that he was eating tofu on himself.

Though...... She's not that annoying.

"Really...... It's dead! ”

Feeling his heavy breathing, he gradually felt a little ambiguous temperature through the thick winter clothes, and Tian Youxi's little face quickly turned red.

"Home...... ...... going home."

Qiu Yang seemed to treat her as a little doll at the head of the bed, and changed to a more comfortable position and hugged her tightly, and smashed her mouth.

Although, at the beginning, she took the initiative to hug him, but now she can't break free.

“…… You're going home, so tell me where your home is! ”

While struggling to adjust his posture to make it less difficult to breathe, Yoda complained with difficulty - Big brother, how do I know where your home is...... At the end of this dinner, let me drag a big man of 1.8 meters to swagger through the city to find a way, which is too conspicuous!

"—That, the address of Qiu Yangsang's house...... I can provide you with ......"

The waiter on the side spoke again.

“…… Because two days ago, Qiu Yangsang was drunk and unconscious here, and we were all here to help him call a taxi......"

“……”

and Tian Youxi were speechless for a while - what the hell, at a young age, how did you become a little drunkard, and the clerk is so familiar with you when you drink! Teacher Qiu Yang, who has a beer belly, doesn't want to be angry!

"Then I'm sorry for you......"

After squirming for a while, she still agreed and asked the clerk to tell her Qiu Yang's address.

"Hey...... Let's go...... Come home......"

With the help of the waiter, she finally got Qiu Yang into the taxi, hesitated, and sat in with her.

Sitting side by side in the back seat of the car, Qiu Yang on the side was leaning on his shoulder at the moment, breathing evenly, which made her suddenly tired and lazy after a long drive - it is absurd to say, obviously he was still in Shanghai in the morning, and returned to Tokyo in the evening, and he also saw the boy he had been thinking about in his heart.

Linked to the success of the concert, she suddenly had a very stinky feeling of being proud in the workplace and in love.

"Really, it's still a little more handsome like this......"

Staring at Qiu Yangxi's stable sleeping face with his eyelashes moving, He Tian couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"I used to be like an adult who was always full of big truths, and I was annoyed to death - but now it's not that I'm also childishly drinking over there!"

“……”

Her small whispered thoughts made the driver seem to smell the air of love. He gently flicked the knob of the car radio, and the melodious melody flowed away.

"—That day, that moment, that occasion, is the ...... I want to see you"

The melody is somewhat familiar, with a bit of the melancholy of the last century. However, he couldn't think of what the name of this urban love song that seemed to be wrapped in neon and snowflakes was.

- "Sudden Love".

The driver spoke suddenly.

“…… Huh? ”

"The name of the song."

Through the rearview mirror, the uncle's gaze was a little kind and emotional.

"Surely you haven't heard of it, have you? When this song is played on the streets, it is still far from the year you were born. It's "Tokyo Love Story". ”

"It's "Tokyo Love Story", ah......"

and Tian Youxi suddenly realized that she knew this TV series.

She measured her head, and the mottled lights outside the car shone on the man's face, casting a deep shadow that changed rapidly.

"-Is it a Tokyo love story......?"

……

……

"-Alright, it's home!"

finally sent Qiu Yang home. As soon as he collapsed on the sofa, Tian Youxi was so tired that he collapsed on the floor, panting for breath - fortunately, there was an elevator in this apartment building, otherwise, he would have called the police......

"-Wash your hands, pour a glass of water, and you can put him alone?"

and Tian Youxi suddenly had a subtle sense of déjà vu, it seemed that more than a year ago, when he and Teacher Qiu Yang first met, he was doing something similar? It was ...... Azukasan?

- Really, why are you always dealing with a bunch of drunks!

poured a glass of water for Qiu Yang, and was about to pack up and go to the entrance, when he suddenly saw a photo on the wall of the living room.

- It was a group photo of Shikashima at that time.

Everyone in the photo is still wearing the clothes they wore during the performance. Everyone is surrounded by the two protagonists of this performance, one is with Tian Youxi himself, and the other is naturally Qiu Yang. In the photo, they were smiling sweetly, just looking at it, it made Yoda's nose sour - it was so good, at that time.

Unlike now, after the confession, she doesn't even seem to have a reason to meet Qiu Yang.

Suddenly, she noticed a line of small print under the photo, which seemed to be handwritten by Qiu Yang on the photo.

"Thank you all for giving me the best summer of my life!"

"- PS: Special thanks Yoda-chan!"

and Tian Youxi finally didn't hold back her tears - obviously, the performance in Shanghai was so stressful, she didn't shed a single tear, and in the space where Qiu Yang existed, she was always extremely vulnerable.

I still remember Qiu Yang's words to ask him on the night of the fireworks festival. Perhaps, before career, responsibility and love, love will be put to the end by Yoda, and this attitude will now be firmly unchanging.

But she is always a little unwilling.

"-Who's there?"

Qiu Yang on the sofa suddenly spoke up, and jumped with Tian Youxi.

Looking back, he moved slightly, half-sat up and rubbed his brows, but did not look at her—probably, only to hear a slight noise in his sleep, and to wake up a little bit of wine.

"It's me, Yoda."

“…… Yoda-chan? ”

She clearly saw that Qiu Yang's movement of rubbing his brows stopped, and there was a hesitation in his words.

In the bottom of Tian Youxi's heart, a little sadness suddenly swelled up - ah, sure enough, isn't the person he expects to see me ?

"-It's Yoda-chan, really, really...... great"

“…… Huh? ”

The unexpected words came to her ears, and when she came back to her senses, Qiu Yang covered her face and shed two lines of tears silently.

In his mouth, he kept repeating this sentence.

"-It's Yoda that's really good, it's you're really good......"

This unexpected picture made Tian Youxi's heart swell with a warm current, and at the same time, he was a little flustered and at a loss.

"Y-you're drunk...... Stop talking nonsense! ”

She stepped forward, sat down on the edge of the couch, and carefully wiped away his tears with a tissue. But it didn't work, Qiu Yang was like a boy who had been deceived into taking away the candy, and when he saw someone comforting him, he cried even more energetically, and his small sobbing gradually turned into crying.

“…… Hey, you're like this, the next door has to have an opinion! ”

and Tian Youxi also have nothing to do with him, should it be said that it aroused the motherhood in the girl's nature? She subconsciously hugged him. Listening to the man's bitter crying gradually subside, she felt that she was needed, and at the same time, she confirmed a fact that made her feel helpless.

- Sure enough, I still like you hopelessly.

“…… Loved ......"

The thoughts in her head, like that summer night, would slip out of the corners of her mouth unconsciously. When Tian Yuxi realized it, he only shook a little - anyway, he has confessed to the truth, so it doesn't matter, right?

However, she clearly felt that the body of the man in her arms stiffened when she heard her unconscious murmuring.

“…… Mr. Qiu Yang, what's wrong? ”

With Tian in his heart, he simply took the lead in asking questions.

Yuki ...... Like me? ”

The whisper tickled her ears — and it was the first time he had called himself that.

"yes, I like it."

Almost without thinking, she agreed.

In the next second, Qiu Yang broke free from her embrace, put his hands on her shoulders, and looked straight into her eyes, his eyes couldn't tell whether they were clear or chaotic.

"—is it true?"

“…… Huh? ”

Yoda Yuxi was a little confused by the sudden questioning, and for a while, she was shy and didn't know how to answer.

"Really, it's rude to question a girl's liking......"

"—is it true?"

Qiu Yang ignored her dodge and moved his head closer. Yoda also realized that his tone was almost a kind of humility, as if he would be shattered by a light touch.

Distress or nothing - she felt that now was not the time to twist.

Overcoming the shame in his heart, he responded generously with Tian Yuxi.

"It's true, Yuki's liking. I really like ......."

Before she could finish her words, she was immediately choked by a scorching breath—unlike her sneaky kiss, which was extraordinarily long and dangerous.

"Wait ......"

Finally, she got a moment of respite, but the man didn't plan to let her go, and instead turned his target to his neck. Under the extremely aggressive aggression, she quickly became emotional, and her body softened.

"-It's Yoda-chan, it's really good."

The words just now are still echoing in Tian Youxi's mind - it's me, will it make him feel happy? Can I also be the first choice in his mind?

This sentence was like a key, priing open the last atrium of her heart.

Qiu Yang's siege continued, his wandering hands continued to probe down, and finally touched a large area of sensitive skin - it was obviously a gentle movement, but where it passed, it left a rough mark.

"Woo......"

She couldn't hold back her emotions anymore and muttered.

Although the occasion and timing of the first menstrual experience are not particularly beautiful, fortunately, it is a boy who really likes him.

"It's true......"

She meditated in her heart.

On a small sofa, it was a frenzied night that was even more raging than Kyushu.

……
