Although Yagyu Rika and her elder brother are in the same school and have a very good relationship with each other, they are not in the same grade after all. Yagyu Hiroshi is also the backbone of the student union, and the tennis club has training in the morning and evening, so the two rarely go to and from school together.

Her daily life is very regular and simple. When she was in school, she went to and from classrooms, libraries and calligraphy clubs, and basically stayed at home the rest of the time. Apart from studying, she has no special interests except reading, practicing songs, and playing the piano. Even on weekends, I seldom go out alone.

But since mid-August, she seems to have suddenly become busy, and she is often away from home during holidays and weekends.

Liu Sheng discovered her sister's mysterious whereabouts earlier than Lu Shi. Seeing that she deliberately concealed it, he thoughtfully and considerately did not pursue it. The mother laughed and lamented that when her daughter had grown up, her mood suddenly became gloomy and bad, and she became faintly anxious.So today, he finally couldn't help it, and asked, and when the girl smiled and said that she was preparing a gift for him, the haze hidden in his heart was able to dissipate.

"Brother," Li Xiang put away the study materials, and looked at the young man who was flipping through the novel with a smile, "Since you are not busy now, why don't you accompany me to the music room!"

Liu Shengbi Lu Shi looked at her suspiciously.

"Hai Yuan Festival, I want to perform on stage on behalf of the Calligraphy Club." The girl took her brother's hand and came to the room dedicated to singing and playing the piano. "If you want to play and sing by yourself, you first check for me." It is the first time for a middle-aged and late-stage performer to be treated with caution.

Liu Sheng knew better than Lu Shi, but he was not surprised.Grandmother is a master of Gagaku in Japan. Rika has followed the old man since she was a child, learning pipa and guzheng, but girls prefer to sing. Her singing voice is very good, clean and clear. She has participated in some children's singing competitions and won many awards.

When encountering some large-scale events, Lixiang is usually invited to participate in the performance as a representative of children. However, after her grandmother passed away last year, she seemed to suddenly lose all interest and no longer performed publicly. She even rejected the invitation from the music club and joined Leisure Freedom calligraphy club.

In the music room, the girl played the piano and sang softly. It was an urban folk song with a soothing tune.Rika's piano skills are average, but her timbre is extremely beautiful, and she is emotionally involved when she sings. Her clear singing voice can easily touch the hearts of the audience.

Every time the girl sings, she seems to be trapped in a kind of illusory tranquility, quiet and lonely, revealing faint sadness, and contradictoryly giving people a trace of warmth.Yagyu Hiroshi sat beside her, listening quietly, staring at her face——suddenly recalled that when he was a child, the little girl like a snow doll was leaning at her grandmother's feet and humming softly, while he was hiding behind the door Listening secretly—a strange feeling rose from the bottom of my heart, and I couldn't explain it clearly.

After singing the song, Li Xiang turned to ask the boy, "Brother, how is my singing?"

The girl's smile was real and vivid, and she suddenly got rid of that hazy feeling of illusion.Inexplicably relieved, Yagyu Hiroshi gently stroked her curly long hair: "It sounds good."

The calm and flat statement hides a hint of pampering.Li Xiang smiled sweetly: "Brother thinks it sounds good, so I'm relieved, I haven't performed for a long time, I'm a little nervous!"

"Is Rika planning to become a singer in the future?" Yagyu Hiroshi suddenly asked an irrelevant question, "Still like grandma, want to become a master of Gagaku?"

Li Xiang shook her head: "Although I like singing and music, I don't intend to engage in this business."

"Why?" Liu Sheng was a little more surprised than Lu Shi, and concealed a trace of worry: thinking of his sister's grief-stricken appearance after his grandmother passed away, he couldn't help worrying that the other party still had a knot in his heart.

"Probably because she doesn't want to step into such a circle." The short experience in her previous life made her a little timid about this industry.

Knowing that his sister is a very determined person, Hiroshi Yagyu asked again: "Then, have you thought about what to do in the future?"

"I think it would be pretty good to be a teacher in a university." Her personality is still suitable for academics.

The corner of the boy's mouth slightly bent: "Li Xiang has a plan!"

"I don't believe that my brother hasn't carefully planned the future." Li Xiang's tone was extremely affirmative. Her brother was precocious since he was a child, with a calm personality and a very purposeful approach to things.

Yagyu Hiroshi pushed his glasses: "Of course I want to practice medicine."

Li Xiang suddenly realized that she almost forgot that she owns a hospital!Then he smiled and said: "That's great, if I get seriously ill in the future, I don't have to worry about medical expenses at all." As he spoke, his eyes flickered for a moment.

"Don't talk nonsense!" The boy put on a straight face, knocked on the girl's forehead, and reprimanded lightly.

Li Xiang covered her head and exaggeratedly exclaimed in pain: "Brother, you hit my head so badly!"

The girl's coquettishness dissipated a little anger in his heart. To his favorite sister, Yagyu Hiroshi was always soft-hearted and helpless. He took her hand away, leaned closer, and stretched out his fingers to gently rub it for her. Forehead: "Does it hurt?"

"Ah," Li Xiang's face was burning hot, and she said embarrassedly, "No." Most of the time, her brother's serious and considerate attitude made it impossible for her to put it on. "Actually, my brother didn't use much effort. painful."

Yagyubi Lushi didn't know her little trick, and he deliberately cooperated not to expose it: "You lied to brother again, huh?" There was no trace of irritation in the questioning words, and he smiled faintly, "What did you promise me before?"

"It's not a lie." The girl defended plausibly, "I was just joking..."

"You are so grown up, do you still act like a baby with your brother?" The boy came to the conclusion self-servingly, teasing his sister with a smile.

"I'm not being coquettish..." Li Xiang retorted, but felt that she lacked confidence, so she said sternly, "It's only natural for younger sisters and older brothers to be coquettish."

Yagyu Hiroshi laughed at the girl's remarks, and his mood suddenly became carefree and comfortable.

The Haiyuan Festival came as scheduled.

Lixiang's class project is to make cold noodles and jelly. These two foods are delicious and popular. If there are enough ingredients, they are quick and convenient to make.As a member of the team, Rika's main job is to mix jelly for the guests - jelly is one of Yagyu Hiroshi's favorite foods, and she is very good at it.

The stalls for popular snacks are indeed full of customers.

"Brother?" The girl who had just made a jelly was surprised to see a group of khaki people approaching. They were the most popular tennis club candidates of Lihai University.Although her brother is one of them, she has a withdrawn personality when she is outside, and she never goes to the tennis court to find people, so she basically has no friendship with these people.

Yagyu Hiroshi walked to her side, glanced around the temporary cooking table, pursed his lips, and asked, "Why are you alone?"

"Ah," knowing what her brother meant, Li Xiang quickly explained, "It's a shift, and it will be over in a while. Brother, can I mix some jelly?" She looked at the other people and asked with a smile, "Do the seniors also want a copy?"

Nioh Masaharu spoke first: "Puff, sister Rika's handicraft must be tasted!" As Yagyu's partner, he is someone who the girl is a little familiar with and has spoken a few words to.

"I want it too!" The red-haired Marui-kun rushed forward enthusiastically.

Others were more or less curious about Sister Liu Sheng and her craftsmanship. Now that everyone is here, they naturally want to try it.

It was a lot of fun.

Rika made some jelly for the main candidates of the tennis club, and then changed shifts with her classmates.After changing clothes from the locker room, she was slightly surprised to see her brother still standing at the door, while the rest of the tennis club had already left.

"It's your first time participating in the Unabara Festival," Hiroshi Yagyu explained, "I'll walk around with you."

Li Xiang was very happy to hear that, but also worried: "Why don't you go with them?"

The young man shook his head slightly: "There are too many people today, and they will always get separated in the end." It's better to act separately.

——After my younger sister entered junior high school, although she made a few friends who could talk, she was so quiet that she was almost withdrawn, presumably because she didn't want to play with others in a noisy crowd.He also knew that the girl was not good at communicating with people, so he helped her refuse the kind invitations of his companions, and stayed here on purpose, planning to take her to play together.

"That's it." Lixiang smiled, and her brother didn't need to be too polite, so she stepped forward and held the young man's arm, "Then let's go, I think my brother will be a good guide."

Yagyu Hiroshi glanced sideways at the girl's hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up quietly.

Li Xiang followed her elder brother closely, watching while walking quietly, listening to the boy explaining to her in a low voice from time to time.

When he came to a stall, Hiroshi Yagyu ordered a snack and stuffed it into the girl's hand: "Octopus balls, have you ever eaten them?" Or clothing, she has never cared about it, the more this is the case, the more he can't help wanting to spoil her, always hoping that she will be happier.

"Does it taste good?" Li Xiang opened the paper box, looking at the round and hot meatballs, hesitant.She rarely eats this kind of roadside snacks.

Yagyu Hiroshi raised the corners of his mouth: "Taste it and you'll know if it's good."

The girl hesitated for a moment, took a bamboo stick and poked one into her mouth, took a bite, chewed slowly, her eyes brightened a little: "Not bad!" and ate the whole ball, "Brother Want one?"

The boy's answer was to move his face closer to her.Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, then understood, picked up another bamboo stick to skewer the balls, fed the snacks into his brother's mouth, and said with a joke: "Fortunately, no one passes by on this road, otherwise brother is a perfect gentleman The image will definitely be ruined."

Yagyu Hiroshi affectionately pinched the girl's earlobe.

Passing through this secluded forest path, there is an outdoor tennis court in front of you. From a distance, you can see some people still practicing. Lixiang couldn't help but stop, a little dazed: "The people in the tennis club really work hard."

Yagyu Hiroshi followed her gaze and said calmly, "If you don't work hard, you will be eliminated. The reality is so cruel."

The girl seldom saw this person so indifferent, she was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "What brother said is true, the reality is very cruel," and suddenly remembered the lonely girl who worked hard but ended badly in her memory, A little dazed, "Sometimes, even if you work hard, you will still be eliminated." The top of the hair was suddenly rubbed gently, and the generous palm was reassuringly warm.

"If it's Lixiang, don't worry," the young man smiled faintly, "I have a brother." He doesn't like to see the girl's occasional sadness, but he still prefers to see his sister relying on him with a sweet smile.

Her mood was instantly healed, warmly touched, and Li Xiang couldn't help herself. She hugged her brother's arm and giggled: "Brother is so kind, Li Xiang likes brother the most!"

Hearing this, the corners of Liu Shengbi Lu Shi's mouth curved up a little.
