。 "-Everyone's eaten about the same, and when we're done cleaning up, let's play a game."

After eating, I thought that it would be boring anyway, and the four girls lived next door, so Shinoda Soma proposed to have some after-dinner entertainment.

"-Oh!! Okay!! ”

The girls, who hadn't gossiped enough during the meal, didn't have enough fun either, especially the members of the younger year, who immediately shouted excitedly when they heard the word "game".

"-What's wrong? Seeing that you are not in high spirits, are you tired? ”

Nana Hashimoto didn't look at Qiu Yang on his side, who seemed to be a little absent-minded, and he didn't move his chopsticks a few times when he was eating, thinking that he was tired after being busy today. She held his hand with both hands with some distress, and the anger of hearing so many trivial matters just now and wanting to settle accounts with him disappeared.

"Ah, no, I just picked up a phone call, and I ...... a little Little things, it's okay. ”

Seeing Qiu Yang squeeze out a somewhat reluctant smile, worried, for his flickering words, Nana Hashimoto was inexplicably annoyed, she was angry and pinched his hand hard.

"You're going to talk to me that night."

"Hmmm......"

Qiu Yang turned his head, a little afraid to look directly into her eyes, and the sense of foreboding in Nanami Hashimoto's heart became stronger.

……

"So, let's play a little game, and the loser will be punished and come up and put on a show? Anyway, all of you here are people in the entertainment industry, so it's our family's private performance! After all, Qiu Yang will not participate in this cherry blossom festival performance, and the fans and friends here must seize the opportunity! ”

Shinoda Soma actively stirred up the atmosphere, and when he said this, his eyes glanced at Hayakawa Seilai from time to time.

"Well, let's get started."

……

In the first round of the game, he was not familiar with the game and Tian Yuxi was out at the speed of light.

"Uh......h Then I'm going to give you a special dance from Fukuoka......"

"-Don't! I want to see the dancing spirit cannon with the field ball! Absolutely cute! I haven't seen much of it lately! ”

"Huh...... Since the seniors have said so......"

After dancing the song, she blushed with shame as if she could drip blood:

"Wow...... It's a shame to sing and dance at the same time! ”

“……”

In the next few rounds, Nanase Nishino sang "Light Synthesis", which was obviously a joyful melody, but Yoda Yuki, who recalled the graduation scene of his predecessors, still cried all of a sudden; He Xi Haruka jumped up and down and sang "I see...", and pulled Hayakawa Shenglai with her; Shinoda sang the song "You Are More Beautiful Than a Rose" by Bu Shiming, and the cherry blossom petals outside the window fell one after another......

The funniest thing is still Nengnian Reina, after losing, she sat cross-legged on the coffee table with a calm face, and finished the theme song of "Sea Lady" with a whistle without laughing at all. While everyone was smiling, it was as if they were taken back to eight or nine years ago, when they gathered around the breakfast table to watch the morning drama - such a time is gradually disappearing with the development of the times.

……

"-Ah, it's your turn at last."

As everyone gradually became familiar with the flow of the game, Qiu Yang, who was not very concentrated, soon couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

In the expectant eyes of everyone, he scratched his head and stood up with some distress. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Nanami Hashimoto had already begun to purse her mouth, and secretly complained in her heart - Nanami Min probably felt that she should have performed for her alone.

After being together for more than a month, Qiu Yang found that she was only very possessive of her performance.

When he stood up, he rubbed Nanami Hashimoto's hair to soothe him. Usually Qiu Yang doesn't often do this action, but every time he does this, Nana Hashimoto thinks that he is neither big nor small.

It's just that this time, maybe it was a bad attack in front of so many people, and Nana Hashimoto didn't just glare at him hatefully, so she blushed and lowered her head.

"- Hey! Brother Qiu Yang doesn't need to show off like this! ”

He Xi Yaoxiang went down with three or two beers, and she was already a little drunk, and she complained unabashedly-she was indeed one of the few girls who were out of the situation, and several other people saw the interaction between Qiu Yang and Hashimoto, and they all lowered their heads slightly, looking thoughtful.

"Blatant affection in front of your fans, you think you're Takuya Kimura."

Shinoda Cangzhen smelled a strange breath in the air, and laughed and scolded.

"You're not afraid of others taking off your powder."

"Take it off... I didn't want to ......."

Halfway through the words, it seemed that he suddenly realized something, so he swallowed the second half of the sentence and opened the topic.

"Brother Cangzhen, do you have a guitar at home, I can't dance, just play a song."

"-Yes, yes, you wait for me."

When several girls heard that Qiu Yang was going to play and sing, they were a little excited and curious, after all, some of them knew Qiu Yang at the beginning, that is, because of the popular Internet playing and singing video.

“…… Huh? I'm looking forward to it! ”

Nanase Nishino, who had never heard Qiu Yang sing live, always felt itchy in his heart when he saw Qiu Yang sitting cross-legged on the ground tuning the pitch and plucking the slender knuckles of the strings.

And the more everyone looks forward to it, the more inexplicable sourness of Nanami Hashimoto become.

"Humph! Next time, I'll have to ask him to sing for me to make up for it! ”

……

"-So, what track is Yo-chan going to bring us?"

Seeing that Qiu Yang was almost ready, Shinoda Cangzhen coaxed.

"There are so many members here, so it must be a Nogizaka song."

"Hmm."

Without much words, Qiu Yang seemed to have entered some kind of emotion. He swept the strings gently, did not look at the people under the "stage" again, and lightly reported the curtain to himself.

"—from Ikuta-san, Eto-san, and Sakurai-san, "If only it could become a cloud."

……

This song is a little unpopular, even if it is live, it is not often selected to sing, not to mention, the three people who sang this song back then have all graduated now. Even Nanami Hashimoto was a little surprised why Qiu Yang chose this song.

is different from the original version of the three members of the "health team", Qiu Yang's singing version has a low voice, less vitality and more emotion.

“……

It's also a waste of effort to wait in place,

It's better to drop everything and get ready to go.

Life is always circuitous,

There are always many impossibilities

……”

The same lyrics, the original song seems to be just "words filled in to be able to sing", which can be hummed out of Qiu Yang's mouth, as if it has a different meaning, and there is something to say.

As the song progressed, everyone shook their bodies slightly, followed the beat, and waved their hands slightly, as if they were really supporting.

“……

Ah, I want to become a cloud,

In that blue sky,

Float away in the breeze

……”

When the song entered the chorus, Qiu Yang suddenly increased the amplitude of the strumming movement, and his feelings gradually became excited.

Everyone here seems to have suddenly realized that he seems to sincerely want to become a cloud, and wants to float in daily life easily and comfortably - after all, before, his name was on the hot search for a week, and all kinds of ups and downs are well known, which is always uncomfortable for Qiu Yang, an amateur.

Maybe the melody is too infectious, or maybe Qiu Yang's expression is too sad, and the emotional Tian Youxi is even a little red-eyed.

"-Teacher Qiu Yang, he is really a person with a story, it seems that the scandal with Asu Kasan some time ago must have troubled him a lot, after all, he and Hashimoto-san are a couple."

And Hayakawa Shenglai knew a little bit of the inside story, and at this moment he was even more sorry - after all, his previous selfish behavior may also be one of the reasons why Qiu Yangge was so distressed.

"-Do you want to find a chance to apologize to Brother Qiu Yang? Although it seems to be useless..."

Nanami Hashimoto heard a different meaning.

—Is it true that he is a little dissatisfied with my restrictions and possessions? Otherwise, how can you yearn for the cloud ...... of freedom?"

The singer may not be intentional, but the listener always has a heart, Qiu Yang, who is singing "I want to become a cloud", although he also has his own resonance and thoughts about the lyrics.

It's just that at this moment, in the process of playing, he naturally doesn't know the complicated thoughts of the audience, and there is only one thought in his mind.

"-This guitar seems to be a little inaccurate......"
