How can my simulation be a real love?

A little excited.

To apologize, she bought this rather expensive chocolate snail bread, the price of which was enough for her to have two meals...

There was still some time before her salary was paid, and she was feeling a little breathless due to the tight living expenses.

In order to save electricity, she didn't even dare to turn on the lights. She had been eating natto rice and bean sprouts from the supermarket for a long time, and now she wants to vomit when she smells the smell.

Even the dress she was wearing had been worn for a long time and had become pale and faded after being washed so many times. Even the cosmetics she used for skin care were of a very cheap brand.

She is certainly under a lot of pressure.

However, she didn't dare to accept too much help from Feng Jianming.

"Even if you don't go, Fengchuan, I have to go."

"I don't want to eat weeds on the side of the road."

Feng Jianming was of course aware of how tightly Toyokawa Shoko wrapped herself up now.

It's like treating coldness and rejection as steel needles, using a seemingly solid shell to wrap up one's fragile heart. While having a strong self-esteem, one is also filled with awkward inferiority.

Afraid of being seen as weak.

Feng Jianming only intended to help her a little bit within his ability. If he went too far, it would cause her self-esteem to rebel.

"I understand. Please take me with you, Senior Kazami."

In the end, she compromised to the pressure of life.

Toyokawa Shoko's strong self-esteem makes it difficult for her to accept help from others, and she wants to rely on herself to handle everything.

But Feng Jianming is just a senior who works part-time, and he even has something in common with her, that is, "he has to work to survive."

What Toyokawa Shoko fears most is that others will look at her with eyes of "pity" and "sympathy", which will severely hurt her self-esteem.

For this reason, I completely cut off contact with other friends because I didn't want to be seen in that way.

Feng Jianming would never show this kind of look.

Because he is now just like Toyokawa Shoko, he has to rely entirely on himself to survive. In a sense, he is the same type as the current Shoko.

Perhaps he is the only one who can get along with Xiangzi on an equal footing at this moment.

……

Off-get off work time——

Just like last time, Toyokawa Shoko was responsible for catching the discounted bento boxes that were thrown out, while Feng Jianming squeezed into the surging crowd alone and kept fighting, relying on his hard power to achieve results in the crowd.

In order to avoid buying expensive plastic bags at the convenience store, Shoko Toyokawa skillfully took out the prepared cloth bag from her bag.

Only after she had packed both lunch boxes into the cloth bag did she breathe a sigh of relief as she had successfully finished her dinner.

"I was almost elbowed by an old man when I was getting my second lunchbox today. Luckily I've been practicing dodging for two and a half years."

"Really? You're not hurt?"

Toyokawa Shoko frowned her beautiful eyebrows. She didn't want to cause anyone else to get hurt because of herself.

"Now I won't die even if I get hit by a car, Fengchuan, you don't have to worry."

"I'm not worried."

Listening to his words which were just as unreliable as before, Toyokawa Shoko knew that he was not seriously injured. Now that the pressure was much less, Shoko even felt a lot more relaxed on the way home.

The relationship with Feng Jianming seems to be gradually getting closer.

Compared to the last time when they were silent all the way, this time the two of them were able to chat a little.

"Toyokawa, you don't know how to cook?"

“…That’s right.”

How can she cook?

Last year, she was the daughter of Tsuki no Mori Academy, and her slender fingers were used to play beautiful musical instruments. Now, she has to do everything by herself, and even has to take care of her good-for-nothing father who is a burden.

"There's really nothing I can do against you."

Seeing Feng Jianming's subtle expression, Fengchuan Xiangzi blushed inexplicably, but she retorted angrily: "I am also learning how to cook... and Feng Jiansenpai, do you think you can cook?"

"I will."

"……joke?"

Toyokawa Shoko looked at Feng Jianming with some disbelief, whose expression did not change. He looked so unreliable, and it seemed that he could not cook, right?

"I'm not lying. This is the result of my hard work and practice just to survive."

This is a lie.

Even before that, he didn’t know how to cook at all, and the cooking skills he had were completely stolen from Aine in the simulation.

"If you really don't believe me, I'll prepare a lunch box for you to try next time."

"Of course, there will be a fee."

Seeing Feng Jianming's slightly smug expression, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help but feel a little competitive.

She really wanted to try what kind of dishes Feng Jianming could cook.

The two people walking side by side on the road did not notice a girl holding a bag in both hands at the corner.

She was wearing the school uniform of the 'Moon Forest' Academy, and stared at the two people who were gradually moving away in the distance with a dazed expression on her face. The fingers holding her bag began to unconsciously exert a little force.

Chapter 7 A lifetime!

Chihaya Aine is very vain.

Of course, she herself doesn't admit it.

"Hmm~ What should I do?"

Lying casually on the soft sofa in her high-end apartment, Chihaya Aine, in a relaxed state, had put on some intellectual black-framed glasses, and her white little feet were hanging in the air, swinging gently.

In front of her was an expensive electric guitar, which was even a little out of tune, perhaps because it had not been used for a long time.

For female high school students' own use, 99% new!

"Now the other girls in my class are always talking about bands. I really need to form a band to keep up with the trend. But who should I choose as the band member?"

Chihaya Aine frowned in thought, and her right hand began to unconsciously play with the cherry-pink hair ends at her temples. The figure of Kazami Naruto could not help but appear in her mind.

She was not opposed to forming a band with a boy, let alone a handsome boy like Feng Jianming. If she formed a band with him, she would instantly become the focus of attention in the class.

It can greatly satisfy Aine's vanity!

Although Deng is a little introverted and a little weird, he is also a very popular cute mascot in the class.

It would be best if he didn’t compete with me for the lead singer position!

"No matter what, let's just invite them both to join us!"

"Oh, yes! My classmate Zi-chan recommended me to go to a livehouse to see if there are any bands gathering. I remember the nearest one was called...R, R what's that?"

"Rider?"

Chihaya Aine casually opened her tablet and used the map to search for nearby LiveHouses.

The first thing that caught my eye was STARRY in the Shimokitazawa area. Although it was not far away, it was actually built underground?

Wow~ The atmosphere feels very depressing. She prefers places that are bright and trendy.

"Ah, this is the one~"

RING!

……

The next day—

"Oh my god! Please form a band with me!"

Chihaya Aine, who struck out as soon as school was over, grabbed Takamatsu Touma who was about to go home and Kazami Meiru who was going to work part-time, and invited them both with a blink of her eyes and a very sincere tone.

Feng Jianming was not surprised at all by this. Rather, it would be a bit strange if Aine didn't take the initiative to invite her given her personality.

Seeing her radiant expression, Feng Jianming glanced at Takamatsu Deng who looked nervous beside him and said slowly: "So, Chihaya-san also wants to form a band for life?"

"Right! Oh, no, no... so a lifetime or something like that! That's a bit too far away!"

She was frightened by the word "a lifetime" before, so why is this word suddenly mentioned again now?

Isn't it true that a band is something that you can never play with after forming it for a lifetime? !

"Gu..."

Hearing this, Deng lowered his head slightly, looking a little lost.

Of course, Chihaya Aine couldn't fail to notice the change in Xiao Deng's expression, and a drop of sweat immediately appeared on her forehead.

But even so, Aiyin couldn't just give up forming a band. She quickly came up to Takamatsu Deng and started to explain in a panic.

"A lifetime is really long! Don't you find it strange? If we really want to form a band for life, it means that Deng Deng and Feng Jian will stay together for the rest of their lives, right?

"This is no joke!"

Chihaya Aine gently grasped Deng's shoulders with both hands, trying to convince her with her 'powerful' explanation.

"You want to stay with Ming...for the rest of your life?"

"That's right! So after all, it's still——"

"I want."

Chihaya Aine was completely stunned, staring with her beautiful light grey eyes and making an incomprehensible sound: "Eh?"

"I want to stay with Ming for the rest of my life."

At this moment, Feng Jianming also took a deep breath of cold air.

The moment Gao Songdeng raised his head and looked at him, the pitiful look like that of a little animal made him dazed for a moment, as if he was hit by a mental attack and temporarily lost the ability to think.

But the next moment, his strong reason made him sober up.

It was a close call, I almost got bewitched again.

If he had not been able to remove the mental control just now, he might have confessed his love to Xiao Deng directly and agreed to her request to be with her for the rest of her life on the spot.

"I thought so before. Deng Deng, your personality is a little too natural!"

Chihaya Aine felt like her head was about to explode, she grabbed Takamatsu Touma's shoulders and shook him back and forth.

It should be said that it was fortunate that Deng's voice was very low, and the three of them were at the very back, otherwise if the words were heard by the other students who had not left yet...

This is really a serious matter!

"Why? I want to..."

Before Takamatsu Deng could blurt out another shocking statement, Chihaya Aine covered her mouth in time.

"I said stop!"

"Let's not talk about a lifetime, let's just have an umbrella Live first! Let's have the first Live and see what the result is?!"

"Li…ve?"

Seeing a change in Takamatsu Deng's eyes, Chihaya Aine realized that she had found an opportunity and immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "That's right!"

"Anyway, let's form a band first, then hold a live show to see how the result goes and then decide on the next steps!"

"I...want to start a Live, but——"

Deng looked at Feng Jianming beside him with some trepidation, and his expression became a little sad.

She longed to stand on that dazzling stage again and to play music with everyone again, but every time she thought of Ming falling in front of her in her 'dream', she could not help but feel fear.

It's all my fault.

Because she has always wanted to stand on the stage of Budokan Live, Ming will try his best for her.
