Other people don’t know what happened between Ruyu and Hoshino Ai, but how could Xiangzi not know?
Hoshino Ai was confessing her love, and it was not just an ordinary confession. In the eyes of those who knew about it, this was already a blatant display of love.
"Shoko, did Hoshino Ai take advantage of you? What did she take advantage of you for?" Touma Hesa still didn't understand how Hoshino Ai took advantage of Shoko.
"Sister Hesha, don't you find it strange that this concert is not worthwhile for Miss Ai?"
"Huh? Why?"
"Because my situation is not equal to hers."
Toyokawa Shoko and Hoshino Ai are currently in an unequal situation.
"Sister Hesha, think about it, what does today's concert mean to Miss Ai? It's no exaggeration to say that at least eight out of the people who came to the scene this time are her fans. In other words, I will be the one who benefits more from the effect of performing with her."
Just as Xiangzi said, she was the beneficiary of this performance.
To put it bluntly, the joint performance of the two is actually the conversion of fans. After such a performance, there is a probability that fans of Hoshino Ai will be converted into fans of Xiangzi, and similarly, there is a probability that fans of Xiangzi will be converted into fans of Hoshino Ai.
But if you think about it this way, Hoshino Ai, who already has more than 80% of fans, will not get too many fans from Shoko in this performance. Considering the overlap, it can even be said to be very few.
However, it is different for Xiangzi. Piano is a niche sport, but with the connection between her and Hoshino Ai, it is very likely that Hoshino Ai's fans who did not listen to piano before will patiently listen to her playing. In this way, she has a high probability of converting Hoshino Ai's tens of thousands of fans into hers.
"It is exactly as you said, Xiangzi. This performance brought almost no profit to Miss Hoshino Ai." Touma Kazusa nodded. "But since Xiangzi is the beneficiary, why do you say you were used?"
"I......"
She played me around in circles!
Clenching her fists, Toyokawa Shoko only hated herself at this moment why she didn't understand Hoshino Ai's intention in advance, why Hoshino Ai invited her, and why the other party seemed to have suffered a disadvantage but didn't care at all.
Because her purpose was not the concert itself from the beginning.
Yes, Hoshino Ai did give her fans, but what she gained was the opportunity to confess her feelings to someone one step ahead of others.
Toyokawa Shoko now understood why Hoshino Ai took the initiative to invite her to participate in this Tokyo Dome performance, which was actually still a bit far away for Shoko, because Hoshino Ai wanted to use Shoko's name to trick Sagiba over.
Unlike Hoshino Ai, who debuted more than a year ago and achieved great success at the Budokan, Shoko has only achieved some success in the field of piano. It is still too early for her to be able to perform directly at the Tokyo Dome with this achievement.
But even so, Hoshino Ai still cooperated with Xiangzi, and even proposed a seemingly unreasonable plan to split the profits in half, which was exactly what Hoshino Ai had calculated.
Xiangzi knows Ruyu very well. Given his personality, if only she or Hoshino Ai were to perform on stage alone, then the other party would most likely not come. But if it was a joint performance between the two of them, Ruyu would be very likely to come.
To put it another way, even if Lu Yu himself would not be present, he would definitely watch the live broadcast just for the sake of the two people's joint performance.
Hoshino Ai was betting on this. She was betting that the person she lost would be looking at both of them this time, so she invited herself to come and prepared in advance to confess to the other party.
Even if the concert itself doesn't make much money, Hoshino Ai doesn't care at all. Her purpose has never been the concert or the money. She just wants to take this opportunity to get Lu Yu back!
This is what Hoshino Ai calculated!
And the facts have proved that Hoshino Ai really succeeded. It was not just that she was almost successful, but she had already succeeded.
Just like what Hoshino Ai thought,
Lu Yu had his own ideas. Before this, even after leaving without saying goodbye twice, Lu Yu never thought of looking back. Even until now when he came into contact with the Bond Band and Mygo, Lu Yu never thought of looking back.
But this time it was different, Hoshino Ai really shook Ruyu.
In Lu Yu's heart, Lu Yu truly understood Hoshino Ai's feelings of being willing to give up her career to find him.
So, she won, and she won beautifully.
Even though she had never been to school, even though she had spent much less time with Lu Yu than Xiangzi, and even though they had never even met each other, she still won!
With a click, the door of the preparation room was opened from the outside.
A girl with a bright smile on her face walked in wearing a gorgeous white wedding gown.
"Ms. Xiangzi, it's your turn."
Like a winner, Hoshino Ai walked up to Xiangzi and glanced at him, then she smiled and gently reminded him.
"The time between the two artists' appearances is usually no more than ten minutes, so please hurry up, Ms. Xiangzi."
"you......!"
Looking at the white wedding dress on Hoshino Ai, Toyokawa Shoko's face turned extremely ugly. She really wanted to give up going on stage and ask the other party whether he had any clues about Ruyu, but she also knew that this was impossible.
"Sister Hesha, let's go on stage first!"
Finally, after clenching her fists tightly, Toyokawa Shoko said this and walked out. If she was alone today, she might really act willfully.
If you, Hoshino Ai, can give up your career to express your love, then why can I, Toyokawa Shoko?
Love is an idol, and confession means the end of a career. But Xiangzi and I are different. We are pianists, and even if we get married and have children, it will not affect our career. So if Xiangzi knew this was the case, she would have made some preparations no matter what, instead of just going on stage angrily like she is now.
However, today's performance is very important to Shoko Toyokawa.
Because today, not only will she be on stage, but also Touma Kazusa, the 27-year-old piano master who has returned from Japan, a pianist whose piano skills have reached the peak of the master level and are close to perfection. She will also officially take the stage today as a pianist and teacher Xiangzi to announce her return to the whole of Japan.
“I wish you two a great success in your performance~”
The girl, smiling and with stars in her eyes, watched her rival walk out of the performance preparation room.
After the two of them walked away completely, Hoshino Ai closed the door and slowly sat down in the seat where Toyokawa Shoko had just sat. In front of this seat was a huge mirror.
"Did you receive my kindness, Mr. Mu Yu?"
This sentence is not a question, but a rhetorical question.
Looking at herself in the mirror with red lips and white teeth like a bride, Hoshino Ai's face was filled with a smile brighter than a rose.
Her calculations were far deeper than Toyokawa Shoko imagined.
In Xiangzi's view, the so-called gambling did not actually exist at all, because knowing Luyu's whereabouts, she was very sure that Luyu would come back to watch the performance.
As for giving up her career, it is actually not as serious as most people think, because she does not have any scandals nowadays, and even she cannot find any, let alone those groundless media and fans.
There were only two results from her performance.
Either Lu Yu will be moved by her and return to her, and if Lu Yu is willing to come back, then the truth will be revealed and she will no longer be an idol.
Either Ruyu continues to remain indifferent, then no one will be able to get any information about Ruyu, and she will still be the idol singer popular in Tokyo. Even if she doesn't get her lover, she hasn't lost miserably.
The result is nothing more than returning to the starting point and starting over again.
Hoshino Ai doesn't like gambling, and has never liked it since she was a child, because she feels that she can't gamble against anyone.
So, her choice was not to gamble. Both outcomes were outcomes she had prepared for, and she could accept either one.
This is the wisdom of social people!
"My feelings have been conveyed!"
"Next, it depends on your performance."
"It would be great if you could just change your mind."
The princess in the mirror's mouth gradually rose. If the other party didn't obey, then she could only...
------
"Sister Hesha, let's change the first song."
Walking side by side with Touma Kazusa and about to go on stage, Toyokawa Shoko suddenly said this.
"Do you want to change the song?" Touma Kazusa was a little surprised.
"Yeah. That needs to be changed."
"It's okay to change the music, but what should we change?"
Unlike songs that require background accompaniment, piano music does not require tuning, so it is okay to change the track freely.
"Haruhi Shadow."
"Hmm? Haruhi Kage?"
"Correct."
Hoshino Ai took the lead and Xiangzi naturally would not sit idly by.
But she couldn't come up with any representative songs at the moment. After much thought, the best choice she could make at this moment was the adapted version of Kasuga Shadow that Lu Yu gave her when she won the championship.
She might not be able to understand the other songs written by Luyu, but Xiangzi believed that if the first song she played was the song that Luyu said "he wanted her to play", then she should be able to impress Luyu who might come back.
In this way, even if she couldn't achieve the same confession effect as Hoshino Ai, at least she didn't lose too badly.
It’s just a pity that she didn’t have time to go back and change her clothes.
"I see. Then let's do as you say, Xiangzi."
Touma and Sa had seen that piece after the competition. Although she had never played it, it would not be difficult for her to play it given her near-perfect level...
A few minutes later.
Toyokawa Shoko and Touma Kazusa stood hand in hand in the center of the stage.
Even though the two experienced people had prepared themselves mentally in advance, they were still a little surprised by the huge crowds of spectators coming from all directions.
After a brief self-introduction, Shoko and Touma Kazusa looked at each other, calmed themselves down, and then sat down in front of the two pianos that had been carried up and placed by the staff.
"Sister Hesha, let's get started."
"Ok!"
Kasuga Shadow, start!!!
......
A master pianist and a master pianist who is about to break through to perfection join forces, and the music they play can only be described as dreamy.
At this point, the only way to describe their performance is perfect.
If we say that Hoshino Ai's singing just now captured the audience with love and enthusiasm, then at this moment, Shoko and Touma Kazusa conquered everyone with their skills and absolutely perfect performance.
The two well-dressed and good-looking girls performed piano music that was truly heavenly. At this moment, even the audience who had no interest in piano were attracted.
It can be said that Hoshino Ai got what she wanted, and Shoko also achieved her goal.
Unlike the previous passionate performances of Hoshino Ai, now, at this moment, the entire Tokyo Dome fell silent, because the audience was afraid that their voices would ruin this beautiful piano music...
“This piece is!”
"Sakiko!!!"
Under the stage, a young girl couldn't hold back her tears after hearing the content of the song.
This song is a dream she will never forget, it is their beauty.
Xiangzi did not abandon everyone. She once brought everyone's dream to the scene of winning the championship, and now she has brought this dream to the higher and bigger stage of Tokyo Dome.
Xiangzi, never abandon everyone at crychic!
Staring blankly at the figure on the stage not far away from her, Nagasaki Suyo now had only one thought.
Sakiko.
Don't worry, no matter what, I will bring Mr. Lu Yu back to you!
When that time comes, we’ll sing happily together, okay?
"Taki-chan, Sakiko-chan played Kasuga Shadow again!"
Of course, Soyo was not the only one who responded to Kasuga Shadow. Several other members of Crychic were also attracted by this song Kasuga Shadow.
The pure piano version of Kasuga Shadow is different from other versions. In this version, everyone can feel only one emotion, a unique one.
That is...
gentle.
That is the tenderness that belongs to Toyokawa Shoko, and also the tenderness that belongs to crychic.
"This guy Xiangzi..." Shiina Riki wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't say anything.
In fact, she had always been somewhat dissatisfied with Xiangzi, even after the reconciliation. But now, listening to the love and tenderness of Kasuga Ying, she could no longer bring up the slightest dissatisfaction with Xiangzi.
Also looking at the people on the stage, Shiina Riki finally let out a long, deep breath, and the last bit of dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared with the sound of the piano.
Toyokawa Shoko.
I wish you a prosperous future.
I wish you a safe journey!
