Chapter 243: New Year's Day, Heart-to-Heart Conversation with Qi Mingyue
I don't know where to start, Sakakihara has lost his impression of the New Year's red envelope.
It's been more than ten years, right?
Needless to say, I didn't say much in my previous life, and I didn't confiscate a few since I was a child. In this life, because my father ran away and my family was poor, except for my mother who occasionally squeezed out some spare money to seal a brother and sister, most of the time I was empty-handed.
Therefore, when he calmed down and saw the handwritten greeting card given to him by Tianhai Qimingyue and the red envelope inside, he had an indescribable emotion in his heart.
[
Brother, respectfully.
As of the evening of December 31, 2022, although the cold air on Chinese New Year's Eve was much better than usual, when I took out the pen and paper, I could still feel a little cold pinprick feeling. Writing is not a very strenuous chore for me, but it is somewhat difficult for me at this time.
Presumably my brother will pay more attention to it every night when he washes the vegetables, right?
It is normal for guitar and bass guitar and bass to have blistering and aching fingers, which are medically known as blisters and chronic strain, and although they are not serious diseases, they are also inflammations that cannot be ignored. Less cold water and less intense exercises are what you should do now.
Hard work is important, but what is more important is a heart that will always take care of yourself.
My sister and I have been taken care of many times since we moved out of our previous home, and you will always ask for our opinions and try to make dishes that are as good as we want for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Because of my own affection, it is difficult to say thank you to you, brother, in person, for taking care of us during this year.
But in this greeting card, in the cold words written with a pen.
I think it's still necessary for me to say thank you and New Year's greetings to your brother.
Happy New Year, brother.
Thank you for being by my side for a year, for which I will be grateful in my way. In addition to the money in the greeting card, I have already placed it in the gap between the books on the top floor of your bookshelf, brother, and please remember to go back and check it out.
July.
]
Sakakihara read the contents of this greeting card more than a dozen times in a row, and every time he read it, he could think of the back of the cold-faced girl writing on Chinese New Year's Eve.
This is an indescribable mood that has no origin and no origin. It's like the same melancholy of the nature that Qi Mingyue felt when he stared into his eyes with a book in his arms. This makes it difficult for Sakakihara to face and let go, trying to find a place to hide it to relieve her anxiety, but he feels that he should take her words and eyes seriously.
Rubbing his fingers over the hard cardboard surface of the New Year's card, Sakakihara smiled unconsciously as he looked at the beautiful fonts written in his hand.
As for why laugh suddenly.
Probably because there is a girl who likes you and is willing to write you such a New Year's greeting, he thought.
Thursday, the third day of the new year.
In addition to Sakakihara Suzu, who didn't receive the red envelopes and New Year's greetings from his brother from the New Year, everyone already has the motivation to continue practicing and hone their skills.
At noon on this day, Sakakihara took advantage of the fact that everyone was eating a prepared lunch box together after the practice, and announced one thing:
"We had to write a song for our own band."
"Unreasonable." Tianhai Qimingyue directly terminated Sakakihara Raku's speech, "For the time being, regardless of whether our band has a substantive role in giving birth to the song now, we don't even have a place to perform now." ”
Tianhai Jiu Liuli said to his sister: "But isn't it good to prepare the music in advance?" Yoshihara-senpai is also asking through old friends where we can perform on stage. ”
Tianhai Qi Mingyue said again: "It's okay to prepare in advance, but the problem is, our band hasn't even decided on the style now, what music needs to be made?" Classical, jazz, blues, pop? A while ago, I was practicing "Wake Me up When September Ends" by Green Day, and then I started practicing J-Pop. ”
Suzu Sakakihara looked up as she thought, "I must be fond of pop music." ”
"I'm pop too." Sakakihara said.
Tianhai Jiu Liuli: "I'm a centrist, it's okay." ”
Tianhai Qimingyue: "I prefer jazz." ”
Really! Qi Mingyue, who likes to read books, likes to listen to music with a great sense of leisure, such as jazz.
As for the snow, the snow likes heavy metals, which is something that everyone knows.
The last time the police came to visit his home, Sakakihara hasn't forgotten it.
It's normal for a rock band to have different styles of music, but it's hard to get the styles together.
And it seems that Zhixue only makes those styles of rock tunes.
Sakakihara stared at the lunch box in front of him and thought about it for a long time, until everyone discussed it for ten minutes, so he said directly: "Why do you have to limit the band to a range?" ”
Tianhai Qi Mingyue directly explained: "If a band wants to grow, it must first accumulate enough fans, and most fans only like a certain style of music, when they learn that the band's next song is actually a completely different style, will they feel disappointed?" And there are too many stylistic changes, which is also a test for musicians and composers. There are so many bands that they can only write bad songs, and the audience can't remember them at all. ”
Sakakihara thought that there was nothing wrong with what Tianhai Qimingyue said, but he didn't fully agree.
"Then Qi Mingyue said, what is the style of our current band?"
"Not yet."
"Well, since you haven't yet, you can try anything, right?"
"Are you trying to decide on the style of a piece and then try to see if it's the right fit for us to go down this path?"
Sakakihara: "That's right. ”
Tianhai Qi Mingyue then nodded, "Then I don't have any objection to the matter of the new song." ”
The luncheon session is over.
In the end, a few people decided that Tianhai Jiu Liuli and Tianhai no Xue composed the music, and Sakakihara Le cooperated with Tianhai Qimingyue to write the lyrics, perfect!
"Huh?! What about me? What about me! After seeing that the old brother and everyone were decided like this, Sakakihara Suzu suddenly felt abandoned.
"Ah Ling, you can learn the guitar well."
"What!" Sakakihara puffed out his face.
Sakakihara Raku: "Then do you want to compose music or lyrics?" ”
"I won't do that."
"That's it!"
"But but. I can't afford to be idle. Uh, man, what do you do with that kind of look. Suzu Sakakihara lowered her face and looked at Sakakihara Le, who also lowered her face.
"Brother~~"
"Okay, okay, I'm going to have to find something for you to do. I want to think about it." Sakakihara Le pondered for a while, and suddenly came up with an idea, and his right hand instantly grabbed Sakakihara Suzu's left shoulder, "Okay, I'll make you the Minister of Social Affairs!" ”
"Oooh! Minister of Social Affairs! Suzu Sakakihara became excited, but quickly returned to her original form, half-hanging her eyes like a dead fish, and asked, "Wait, what is the Minister of Social Affairs?" ”
"I'm in charge of the band's Twitter account, as well as the YouTube account, and I'm responsible for handling the band's various online matters."
"Ah, I'm in charge of all social media?"
"That's right, yes, how about it, isn't it gratifying."
Sakakihara Suzu thought about it, but it wasn't unacceptable, "Okay then." ”
"OK, that's it, we've got to make a new song in a week, come on!"
"Oooh!"
"So, keep practicing, and wait for the seniors to give us the notice of the performance."
"Oooh!" Suzu Sakakihara continued to cheer.
*
In addition to spending the New Year these days, all that is left is to practice the drum kit.
However, Tianhai Qimingyue found that Sakakihara Le has always been looking at himself intentionally or unintentionally recently. I don't know for what purpose.
He also took the initiative to touch his room tonight.
Tianhai Qi Mingyue sat on the bed and saw him walk in like this, and knew that he definitely didn't have any good intentions.
"Seven-"
"Huh?" Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at Sakakihara Le who approached with a look.
"Seven bright moons."
"Suddenly come to me at night, what are you doing?" Tianhai Qimingyue replied at this time.
"It's nothing, it's just that I've missed you a little bit these days." Sakakihara went to take her hand, but she avoided it by holding Bunkumoto.
"Miss me? Didn't you think about how comfortable it would be to sleep with your sister? "Tianhai Qi Mingyue covered half of his face with the library book, leaving only a pair of godless eyes.
"There is no thing, Liuli will not be embarrassed to let me sleep with her every day, even if I take the initiative to invite her, she will probably refuse because she is embarrassed."
"It's so good, and I took the initiative to invite." Tianhai Qi Mingyue is still the tone that can't hear emotion.
"Qi Mingyue, how about I stay with you tonight?"
Tianhai Qi Mingyue only gave him a look, and then didn't care about him anymore, and continued to look down at his library book.
"If you don't speak, you agree."
Tianhai Qi Mingyue still didn't speak, but his attitude was a refusal again, refusing him to take his hand.
"Actually, I've been thinking about the New Year's card you wrote these days."
"What's there to keep in mind?"
"Care, care, gratitude, and love, I learned these things from that greeting card."
"And then you realized this, all the time you've been with your sister for the past few days?"
"Ruri has been in a bad mood lately?"
"I'm in a good mood?"
"Then I'll be with you too."
“.”
"Actually, Suzu and Ruri also gave it to me, but you were the first to give it to me."
"So?"
"That's why I've been missing you for the past few days, July."
Tianhai Qi Mingyue was quite sincere when he saw him say this, and his slender hand closed the library book and put it aside. Under the gold-rimmed glasses, a face as beautiful as a cherry blossom faces Sakakihara Raku.
"You like my sister very much?"
"Yes, you know it." Sakakihara is not going to lie in this regard.
"What about liking me?"
"This kind of problem. You know, it's hard for me to answer. ”
"Then come here."
"Do what?"
Tianhai Qi Mingyue took the initiative to close her eyes and kissed him, and she made contact with him for a while.
Sakakihara was actually a little stunned at first, because she didn't expect that after not kissing July for a long time, she would be so active this time.
Besides, beautiful girls are so active, how can he not accept it.
Occasionally, there's a bit of a bouncing feeling.
"Is it delicious?"
"It's got to be delicious."
"What does it smell like?"
"A faint sweet aroma, green apple flavor."
There was a beautiful girl sitting next to her, an iceberg girl with a double ponytail, facing her face, smelling the faint girlish fragrance on her body, Sakakihara knew what it meant to spend a good night together in the real sense.
"Still want to eat?"
"If you don't want to, it must be false."
"Do you like me a little more now, or do you like my sister a little more?"
"There's no need to fight in a place like this, right?"
"Why not? Maybe you don't understand, but winning over my sister makes me feel quite comfortable. ”
“.”
"Come on, I'm happy when I'm done, and I'll show you that there's nothing under the skirt."
"I'm not that perverted yet."
"Then do you want to talk about it?"
"Well, now I definitely prefer Qi Mingyue, you have a little more." Sakakihara slowly moved closer to her pretty little face.
"Now? Flattering. ”
Although Tianhai Qi Mingyue was not so happy, she still agreed to let him kiss her.
"Alright."
"Huh? It's only been a few minutes. ”
"So long is enough. I still remember you saying that you would never like me before, and now? ”
"Qi Mingyue, you are too vindictive."
"And now?"
"I like you."
"Say it again."
"I like you."
"Say it again"
"I like you Qimingyue!" Sakakihara raised his voice slightly, "That's enough." ”
Tianhai Qi Mingyue stared for a long time, her azure eyes were full of ice-like depth, she didn't know what she was recalling, and her tone changed back to that emotionless and flat: "You're not afraid that I would have secretly called my sister over a long time ago, and then exposed your behavior." ”
Sakakihara sat opposite her with his legs crossed and shook his head: "I know, Qi Mingyue, you really want to do that, in fact, you have already done it." ”
"Brother, you seem to know something."
"Of course, I'm not a fool, in fact, Qi Mingyue, you have long thought about getting along with Jiu Liuli, right?"
“.” Tianhai Qi Mingyue had no expression, and did not answer, just sat quietly at the head of the bed. He was covered with a thick quilt.
Sakakihara didn't look at her either, but looked at the shimmering orange Tokyo Tower outside her window:
"Qi Mingyue, you have countless opportunities to expose me to Jiu Liuli, but you didn't do that, just because you were worried about my feelings and didn't want me to be particularly embarrassed? I don't think so, it's definitely Qi Mingyue, you still have a great impression of Jiu Liuli in your heart, and you don't want to do things too much. ”
Tianhai Qimingyue was still quietly watching him, and there was not a trace of change in the depths of his godless eyes.
"Qi Mingyue, you always look strong, in fact, in the invisible place, you are tolerating everywhere, enduring what you should have gotten, and enduring what you should have." Sakakihara Raku said this, turned his head, and smiled at the girl with two ponytails, "Really? July. ”
"You can still laugh." Tianhai Qi Mingyue closed his eyes.
Wait a minute, I'm not laughing at this! I'm encouraging you to laugh. Now it is to tell you that you already have someone who can understand and believe in the Seven Bright Moons. ”
Tianhai Qi Mingyue didn't refute, "Then how do you explain the fact that I didn't want to be friendly with my sister at all before?" ”
"Well, a normal person would do that, and I can't see my things being taken away by others. Even now, Qi Mingyue will definitely not be acceptable to you. ”
"So? Do you have a workaround? ”
"No," Sakakihara said honestly, "but I know I'm sorry for you in July, so I want to like you more, I want to make up for you, I want to understand you more, this is what you really want in July, right?" ”
“.”
"Is that so? Seven - Month! Sakakihara was happy to see her stunned, and leaned into her ear, stretching his tone out.
"That's only half right." The seven bright moons of the heavenly sea came back to their senses.
"Huh? So what's the other half? ”
"I told you a long time ago."
"Yes?"
"Whether you have understanding or not, it's up to you."
"What, just say no to me?"
"Brother, the reason why relationships can be maintained is because both parties want to try to understand each other, so it is important to maintain a state of inability to understand deeply, which is just as important as being able to understand and be considerate of each other."
"In July, the teacher's small lecture class is open again!"
"It's up to you whether you listen or not, now I'm tired."
"You're going to sleep?!" Sakakihara heard the meaning of the eviction order.
"What do you think? I mean, my legs are uncomfortable, don't you know how to massage a little? Tianhai Qi Mingyue said softly, and her eyes also looked at him.
"Before, I said that I would massage your legs, and you said that you were afraid of your tofu that I ate, but now you are not afraid?"
"Eat as you like."
Sakakihara instantly understood.
"I love you, July."
"Without further ado, do you press it? Also, don't call me July casually. ”
"Okay July."
“.”
