Xu Mochao looked at the invitation letter in his hand and fell into deep contemplation.

Before he could win the KOF contest, another invitation was delivered to him.

"Concert?"

Athena Asamiya will hold a concert in China on the first day of the first lunar month, and will also sing five new singles, and will invite songwriter Xu Mochao as a guest of honor.

There are also two air tickets attached to the invitation, which is of course VIP treatment, or the kind with advanced on-demand.

The other ticket was for Tanima's Konoe.

Now she has officially left NAO and signed a contract with Athena's BOF band, becoming a contracted singer under Athena's studio.

Because she knew that she was with Xu Mochao, Athena even prepared her air ticket.

"It's very thoughtful, but do you want to go?"

"Go, why not!"

Yagami Chigusa was even more excited than Xu Mochao himself, "This is a world-class concert, and people have even sent their tickets home, so you still don't go with such great sincerity?"

An, you're hiding so deeply! I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with a world-class star? ”

Xu Mochao sighed, "I'm also a world-class star......"

In this world where everyone loves martial arts, the status of a martial artist is no worse than that of an idol star. As a one-time champion of boxing and the same name as the current first person in the martial arts world, Kyo Kusanagi, it is not wrong to call him a world-class star.

It's just that he is notorious, and when he usually walks on the street, no one comes to ask for autographs, and he is happy to be idle.

"That's not the same", Yagami Chigusa shook her head and said, "People are national idols, you are just a star in the martial arts world, how can you compare with her?" ”

"Soon I will become a national idol too."

Don't forget that Athena's several singles this time were all written by Xu Mochao.

"Let's go, An", Yagami Yue, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "You have precipitated a lot during this time, it's time to go to the outside world for a while." ”

There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure.

Although Yagami Moon is not even forty years old now, far from reaching the point of "old", his opinion is still very valuable for reference.

Turning his head to look at the valley guard who was still looking at him with sincerity although he didn't say it explicitly, then at Yagami Moon and Yagami Chigusa, and then thinking of the sincerity shown by Athena when she called him before, Xu Mochao finally sighed:

"Okay, I'll go."

……

……

Children, don't be greedy, it's the New Year after Laba.

At this moment, the Central Plains is full of the busy atmosphere of the previous year.

As soon as Xu Mochao and Tanima Konoe got off the plane, they felt this unique atmosphere.

Especially Brother Chao, he has a feeling of returning to his homeland.

At this time, shouldn't I shout at the top of my voice: "I, Hu Hansan, are back again?" ”

At this moment, Xu Mochao saw an ordinary strong man holding a pick-up card with three big characters written on it:

Yagami An!

Soon, the two met Athena in a car.

"Mr. Yagami, long time no see!"

"This is Miss Tanima, right? Hello, I'm Athena Asamiya, first time meeting, please take care of me! ”

Xu Mochao looked at Athena Asamiya, who was wearing sunglasses and wrapping herself tightly in a cotton coat, and asked speechlessly, "Are you so afraid of the cold?" ”

Although the winter in northern China is indeed very cold, you are a martial artist, and your physical fitness is not so bad, right?

What's more, even ordinary people haven't wrapped themselves up to such a point, right?

Athena was a little embarrassed when she heard Xu Mochao's words.

"I'm afraid of being recognized, if it's just me, but if I'm seen getting along, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for Mr. Yagami......"

"That's a good feeling, what I hate is trouble."

Hearing Xu Mochao say this, Athena suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was originally worried that her approach would make Xu Mochao think that she was a proud and unkind person.

"Mr. Yagami, I didn't expect you to actually come?"

"What, do you think I'm not coming?"

Athena hesitated for a moment, but still said her true thoughts, "Well, because it has been a long time since the agreed time, and according to Mr. Yagami's personality, I don't really like this kind of occasion." ”

Xu Mochao nodded, "It's true that I'm not interested in this kind of occasion, but I've been a little bored in Japan recently, and I wanted to go to other places to relax, and it just so happened that you were holding a concert in China again, so I came over." ”

Athena keenly caught the hidden message in Xu Mochao's words, "What does Mr. Yagami mean...... Are you interested in China? ”

"Not bad", Xu Mochao did not hide it, and said bluntly, "I love China." ”

Athena and Tanima both looked at Xu Mochao in surprise.

Tanima Konoe didn't care, but Athena secretly glanced at Xu Mochao and secretly thought, "Mr. Yagami is obviously a Japanese, but he actually said that he loves China, is it because of ......?"

Thinking that she had said something similar at the concert before, Athena's heart suddenly moved, could it be ...... Mr. Yagami, what is this implying by this?

The reason why she said that is naturally because of her master, Zhen Yuanzhai, although she is Japanese, she has basically lived in China after being accepted as an apprentice by Zhen Yuanzhai, and when she was KOF94, she participated in the King of Fighters tournament as the Chinese team.

So more often than not, she sees herself as a Chinese than a Japanese.

But Xu Mochao didn't have such an experience as her, but said this, doesn't it mean ......

If Xu Mochao knew Athena's thoughts, he would definitely tell her, sister, you think too much.

He said this only because he was a Chinese before the crossing, and even after the crossing, since entering the secret realm, this feeling has not changed.

Don't you know that there is a feeling called nostalgia?

The only person who can understand Ye Qingmei is Fan Xian.

However, although the specific reason is unknown, Athena and Tanima Konoe still did not ask why.

Along the way, Xu Mochao has been closing his eyes to recuperate, and Athena is discussing music majors with Tanima Konoe.

The two of them suddenly lowered their voices as they spoke, because they both found that Xu Mochao actually fell asleep like this.

"Is Mr. Yagami tired during this time?"

Seeing this scene, Athena couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Before this meeting, Tanima Konoe had a crush on Athena.

The latter is obviously a top superstar in the world, but he has no frame at all, and treats her like an ordinary friend.

This is already respectable, not to mention that Athena also helped her settle the transfer.

When Tanima Konoe went to the NAO band to handle the transfer before, the attitude of the band that had always ignored her before took a 180-degree turn.

Not only has the manager always emphasized that they have not seen the pearl for many years, causing the pearl to be dusty, but they are also constantly retaining, promising that as long as she is willing to stay, she will be given excellent treatment - the lead singer of the band!

However, the manager's behavior of asking about her relationship with Athena made Tanima even more determined to leave.

From whispering to raising his eyebrows, at that moment, Tanima Konoe felt as if he was the protagonist of the cool text.

It's all Athena's work!

Through the conversation between the two along the way, she had a better impression of Athena, and at this moment, listening to Athena's question, she glanced at Xu Mochao, who was asleep, and whispered:

"An is really tired during this time, he has been treating my sister's injuries, and that thing is very draining. Also, I heard from Mrs. Chigusa that she was injured before, and she is still in the recovery period......"

If Athena is a charcoal in the snow, then Xu Mochao is a life-saving grace.

So Tanima told Athena everything she knew.

Athena nodded from time to time as she listened, and when Tanima Konoe finished speaking, she suddenly asked, "Do you call Mr. Yagami ...... Hut? ”

The names "Yagami" and "An" are two very different concepts.

Tanima Konoe naturally knew this, and smiled awkwardly, "This is also what Lady Chigusa requested......"

She relayed Yagami Chigusa's words and added, "But I don't think An's mind seems to care about this kind of thing. ”

Xu Mochao really didn't care, although he was a little surprised when Sister Gu Jian called him like this for the first time.

But the name was originally used to be called by others, whether it was called Yagami Nunnery, Yagami, An, or some other nickname such as Eight Masters, Son of the Great Snake, and Eight Feet Qiong'an, as long as it wasn't deliberately provoked, he wouldn't care.

"That's ......"

Athena nodded thoughtfully, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The old driver's car drove fast and steadily, and soon reached its destination.

"Sister Konoe, just let Mr. Yagami continue to sleep, and the two of us will go up, shall we?"

The guards in the valley glanced at Xu Mochao, who was lying in the last row, nodded, and followed Athena up.

This is the headquarters of Athena's company, and it was originally enough for Tanima Konoe to do the entry procedures alone, but Athena thought very thoughtfully, and if she took Tanima Konoe to do it herself, it would naturally be different.

A moment later, Athena, who had settled the guards in the valley, hurried down.

Having yourself personally accompanied is enough to attract the attention of those in the company, and there will be no suppression of newcomers.

The next thing Tanima Konoe can do on her own, and it's just the right time to give her a little time to get acquainted with her new colleagues.

She didn't forget that Xu Mochao was still waiting for her in the car.

Unexpectedly, when she went downstairs to the car, she was stunned.

Xu Mochao was not in the car.

Athena hurriedly asked the driver, "Master Wang, where is Mr. Yagami?" ”

"Isn't he sleeping...... Hey? ”

The old driver, Master Wang, turned around as he said and was stunned, only to see that the seats in the back row were empty, where was Xu Mochao's shadow?

"Hell hell, the ...... who was still there just now"

He quickly turned around and wanted to explain to Athena, but was surprised to find that Athena, who was asking him a moment ago, was also gone.

"What's going on?"

Obviously, it is now March 9 weather, but Master Wang feels cold sweating.

Such a big living person just disappeared in front of his eyes?

And more than once?

What the hell?

Hell of course it's impossible.

There are no ghosts in the King of Fighters world, that is, in KOF13, Mai Zhuo and Weiss who appeared in soul form because of the breaking of the seal of the big snake can barely get along.

In fact, when Athena heard Master Wang say that Xu Mochao was still in the car a moment ago, she immediately understood that Xu Mochao had left on his own.

It is not too easy for him to leave without being noticed by Master Wang, he can do this by himself.

So she didn't wait for Master Wang to speak again, and flashed directly.

While running at high speed on the street, Athena secretly thought to herself, what could make Xu Mochao leave in such a short time? 8)
