Chapter 117: Spring River Water Warms, Ducks Know First; What About Summer

After Golden Week, they went to school to complete the Ball Games Tournament, and then the weekend arrived.

"I must study these two days!" Qingshan Li made up his mind.

During Golden Week he was busy catching up on manuscripts, finishing his homework only at the last moment, and had not studied at all.

"Add Oil!" Ono Mika said with a smile.

"Tsk~" Ono Mizuki looked as if she had only just remembered now.

The two of them held secret study sessions every day; when Qingshan Li came out to use the toilet or pour water and passed by, he looked at them with resentful eyes, as if looking at traitors.

Those who like to study in secret hate others who study in secret the most.

"Unless your two lives are in danger, do not disturb me." Qingshan Li dove into the bedroom.

——System

——Wait!

Qingshan Li first did a set of questions himself, then reviewed, then did another set of questions.

——Alright, it's your turn!

After two hours of studying, Qingshan Li did another set of questions.

He placed the three sets of questions before him, compared them carefully, and deeply realized the importance of review and system.

Being able to clearly see progress made his study motivation even stronger.

A glass of iced Calpis appeared on his hand at some point.

He picked up the drink, stood up, and stood by the window to gaze into the distance and rest.

Five minutes later, he continued studying.

First he reviewed what he had learned once.

"Buzz~"

Qingshan Li subconsciously reached for his mobile phone, thought about it, did not look at the messages, and turned it off directly.

The most important Ono Sisters were right outside the house, so there was no need to contact them by mobile phone, and as for the others, it didn't matter.

Besides, as long as the messages did not become "read," it was not considered rude.

He studied until noon, then Qingshan Li walked out of the bedroom and came to the Japanese-style living room facing the courtyard, the place where he had been criticized the night before.

"Is Calpis tasty?" Agatsuma Haruka asked in a showing-off manner.

"Tasty, you brought it?" Qingshan Li asked while sitting down.

"Comfort gifts."

"And some souvenirs." Bass Sakurako said, "Things family members brought back from going out, because they've been coming to your house often recently, so we brought some for you too."

"They're all edible things." F·Rino said.

"High-class goods, huh." Drummer Gu Mumi said teasingly.

"After Seiten Band revives, please be sure to come practice often." Qingshan Li said.

"What a realistic boy." Agatsuma Haruka said with a laugh.

"You mean, your house will always have a room for us?" Bass Sakurako asked.

"If you want to hold a training camp, there will definitely be a place for you to sleep."

Agatsuma Haruka had a flash of inspiration and immediately said, "Simply, let's hold our training camp these two days!"

Unlike Bass Sakurako, her purpose in proposing the training camp was entirely to improve the band's level.

"We can hold study sessions together at night too." Bass Sakurako said, "Junior students, you can ask me anything you don't understand; for this monthly exam, Senior Sakurako here ranked third in the grade."

Is this person this smart?

But, have the senior year grades already come out?

"Junior-kun, why are you so surprised?"

"No."

"As long as Senior Mika and Junior Mizuki have no objections" F·Rino glanced at the kitchen position.

It was no longer the shabby apartment of the past; the current house was so large that people in the kitchen could not hear the conversation in the living room.

"There's another question." Drummer Gu Mumi pondered.

"What?" Agatsuma Haruka looked at her.

"The training camp means staying together all day and night, and people will definitely fart; the probability of a fart that is neither loud nor smelly is low, so what if someone lets out a loud fart or a smelly fart?"

This person was unexpectedly realistic.

But subtly off in some way.

"What's that look?" Drummer Gu Mumi looked at Qingshan Li.

"Let Junior-kun fart now; that way, even if we fart, it won't be shameful." Bass Sakurako proposed.

"Why am I the one being sacrificed?" Qingshan Li protested.

"Farting in front of a large crowd is easy for boys." Agatsuma Haruka said.

She immediately apologized to all the boys in the world.

"So it's best to wet your pants!" Drummer Gu Mumi looked as if she had come up with a good idea, "That way, even if we fart, he won't be able to mock us!"

"Wait a moment." Qingshan Li spoke, "Farting is shameful but saying it out loud is nothing, while wetting your pants is not only shameful but absolutely cannot be said out loud—don't you think the distance between these two is a bit too great?"

It was as great as the distance between "having erotic articles about sisters in hand" and "bathing with sisters."

By the way, among all of Qingshan Li's electronic devices, there were no erotic articles about sisters.

Nor about brothers.

"What are you talking about?" Ono Mika walked in carrying lunch, smiling.

Agatsuma Haruka stood up while saying, "We're talking about Junior-kun wetting his pants."

"Li, did you wet your pants?"

Is the trust between siblings really that low?

Everyone stood up and went to the kitchen to help serve dishes and fetch bowls, only Qingshan Li didn't move.

"Can't help it, after all I wet my pants, can't stand up." The girls left giggling.

I'll definitely sue them for defamation in the future.

【Seiten Band: 37%】

Forget it.

Qingshan Li was afraid that writing "Seiten Band" (tentative title) would lead them to demand portrait rights and other fees.

Most importantly, their probability of winning the lawsuit was higher than his.

Seven people sat around and began eating.

Outside the porch, the clear sky of early May was blue like an oil painting, the white clouds spotless.

"Go home and get clothes after eating!" Bass Sakurako announced.

It seemed that while serving dishes, they had already discussed and decided to stay overnight.

"Did the farting matter get resolved?" Qingshan Li asked.

"We're eating." F·Rino couldn't stand it.

"So boys really can't do certain things." Drummer Gu Mumi expressed contempt.

Qingshan Li gave up struggling, picked up his rice bowl, and began eating.

Recently Ono Mizuki started trying different cuisines.

She only had experience making stew and curry, but relying on these experiences, plus online recipes, even dishes she had never touched before could be made to look presentable.

"The morning was rushed, so there was less food; dinner will be more abundant." Ono Mizuki said.

"Enough, enough, it's enough!" F·Rino hurriedly said.

"Junior Ono Mizuki preparing meals for seven people for two consecutive days is too hard work; let's prepare together in the evening." Agatsuma Haruka proposed.

"How about each person prepares one dish? The one whose dish tastes the worst has to wash the dishes." Drummer Gu Mumi said enthusiastically.

"Washing dishes is my job." Qingshan Li said while eating with his head down.

"Then leave it to him." Ono Mika smiled.

She understood Qingshan Li, knowing he wanted to free up time for their training camp.

"Everyone eat quickly, the food is almost gone!" Ono Mizuki shouted.

She also understood Qingshan Li, knowing Qingshan Li didn't mind eating all the food and letting everyone go hungry for a bit.

The food fought over smelled fragrant.

Moreover, the girls' outfit coordination leaned toward summer, slightly cool, and whichever direction, it was pleasing to the eye.

After eating, Qingshan Li washed the dishes alone.

The band girls chatted idly in the living room.

"The weather has been really hot lately."

"Yeah, the feeling of stuffiness inside the underwear is gradually reviving."

"Take off your underwear during practice later, little brother, you can't suddenly appear, okay."

Qingshan Li was wiping the table.

After the bowls were washed and the table wiped clean, Qingshan Li poured himself a cup of water, took some condolence gifts the band girls brought, and returned to his bedroom.

"Where's any system? I'm just better than others at overcoming my own instincts, right, system?"

【Begin Guidance 'National Language'】

【Intelligence↑】

【Beauty↑】

Two hours later, Qingshan Li walked out of the bedroom, replenishing his own water while watering the vegetable garden—not urinating.

The doorbell of the gate suddenly rang.

Qingshan Li put down the watering can and leisurely walked over.

It was Mikami Ai.

"Good afternoon, Mikami Classmate."

"Good afternoon."

"Was it them calling you again?" he asked.

"Why didn't you reply to my messages?"

It seemed like he received a message.

"My mobile phone ran out of battery."

"Take me to your room."

"Sorry, actually I was busy studying; I knew there was a message but deliberately didn't look, and put the mobile phone far away."

"I can understand, but I should have told you last night that during this weekend, I plan to finish everything regarding the book."

"Sorry." Qingshan Li felt embarrassed, "I'm not very good at these business-like phrases; next time you should add 'need your close cooperation,' I'm rather stupid."

Mikami Ai hesitated, finally sighing: "It was my mistake, nothing to do with you."

"Hmm?"

She thought she could contact Qingshan Li anytime.

"Nothing." Mikami Ai walked in, "I'll go to the training room first; they sent me, saying they want a training camp?"

"Yes yes, do you want Calpis?"

Mikami Ai walked inside, Qingshan Li closed the door, and just as the door was about to shut, he caught sight of a figure in the shadows in the distance.

The security is truly tight.
