Chapter 105 Singing
Surprisingly, Kirihara Akira went to school for a day.
To get into Kyungmyung University, you first need to take the national unified entrance exam in Japan, and then take the university's internal entrance exam for independent admissions.
Although Kirihara Akira seems to be unserious every day, his academic performance is actually quite good.
The material taught in high school, the material that needed to be worried about in standardized tests, was too easy for him.
On the contrary, it is Mori Kiyoha who needs to worry about failing the unified exam.
However, her mother is Mori Akari, so grades aren't that important.
The purpose of the lady arranging a tutor for Mori Kiyoha was actually more about discipline than about truly wanting her to learn anything.
She was notorious at the school and didn't have any pleasant memories of her time there.
Considering all these factors, it doesn't really matter whether she comes or not.
Kirihara Akira's schedule was even more flexible. She could come to absorb the youthful atmosphere of the campus whenever she wanted, and stay at home to sleep and enjoy the service of her maids when she didn't want to come.
Today, I mainly have something to do.
Many people greeted Kirihara Akira, and quite a few noticed his newly permed curly hair and the silver-gray highlights.
One classmate teased, "Are you a student named Xue Sen?"
Kirihara Akatsuki feigned ignorance: "Which Mori-kun?"
"Mori Kiyoha-kun," said the male classmate named Fukuyama Hikaru across from him with a smile, "Are you playing dumb with me? Can't you just tell me the truth?"
"What truth are you talking about?" Kirihara Akira smiled.
Hikaru Fukuyama, the president of the soccer club and a key player on the Tosei High School soccer team, is, from every angle, a quintessential "normie" and a cheerful, outgoing person.
Kirihara Akira had met him a few times and had even been dragged along to make up the numbers. Although they weren't exactly brothers, they were friends who got along well.
Fukuyama Hikaru asked, "Do you like Mori Kiyoha?"
Kirihara Akira readily admitted, "Of course I like her. Who doesn't like pretty girls?"
Fukuyama Hikaru was taken aback, then smiled with relief and said, "You rascal, you're still as cunning as ever after just a few days."
"But I'd like to ask you, you don't have feelings for her, do you?"
"Yes," Fukuyama Hikaru said directly, without any hesitation.
Kirihara Akira was stunned. This was the sunshine? It really was sunshine.
"What a pity," he said with obvious regret. "She already has someone she loves. Otherwise, we would have gone to the same university, and we would have had the chance."
"Huh? Is that so? Who is it?" Kirihara Akira asked curiously.
Looking at Kirihara Akira, Fukuyama Hikaru couldn't hold back any longer.
"Don't you care which university I go to?"
"Qingming, who doesn't know him? The whereabouts of the male god Fukuyama Hikaru are of great interest to the female students."
Fukuyama Hikaru was somewhat speechless. He said, "Never mind, let's not talk about this. Do you want to go to the auditorium together? Let's invite Li-san along."
"The auditorium?" Kirihara Akira said in surprise, "I thought you were going to ask me to play soccer."
"We have a special event today." Hikaru Fukuyama flashed a handsome smile and said, "You know Kisaragi-sensei—the new music teacher who recently joined the company, Kisaragi Shiori, right?"
Kirihara Akira gave a mysterious smile and said, "I know him, he's a famous person at school."
"She's not just a school celebrity now, she's a real celebrity, you have to take the prefix away." Hikaru Fukuyama: "You can't be unaware of that, can you? She wrote the lyrics and music for that hit song 'Jealousy,' which is all over the place lately, and she also sang it."
"Wow, that's amazing," Kirihara Akira said.
“And there’s something even more amazing,” Hikaru Fukuyama said. “She agrees to cover songs for many people.”
"Is this... that impressive?"
"Wow, this proves she doesn't have a management company and doesn't care about copyright. And isn't this just throwing money away?" Fukuyama Hikaru said. "Isn't it a bit stupid? Such a commercially valuable song, and instead of properly promoting it, she plans to just casually sing it in the school auditorium."
"That's really impressive." Kirihara Akatsuki seemed to realize something, and said, "But not because he's stupid."
"Why is that?"
Kirihara Akira said, "Let's talk as we walk."
"Should we look for Mr. Li?"
Kirihara Akira checked her phone and said, "As for Li-san, he's already in the auditorium."
"Oh, he's certainly proactive; he's always the first to rush over whenever he sees a pretty girl," Fukuyama Hikaru chuckled, adding, "Let's continue our previous topic."
Kirihara Akatsuki doesn't understand business, so she just made things up: "Of course, a song needs to be judged by its commercial value, but as you said, she doesn't have a company behind her. Compared to money, what she needs more is influence."
"In the music industry, people recognize the song, not the singer; it's common for a singer to become a hit while the singer is just a nobody," Kirihara Akira said. "Her method not only builds good relationships but also pushes the song's popularity to its peak."
Kirihara Akira was obviously not telling the truth.
He understood what Kisaragi Shiori's choice meant.
She wants fame, but not for commercial reasons; she probably just wants to attract attention.
She still remembered her mission.
Akira Kirihara and Hikaru Fukuyama arrived at the auditorium.
Inside the auditorium, it seemed like they were just about to start singing.
Li Changqing had been waiting there for a while. He immediately saw Kirihara Akira and Fukuyama Hikaru enter and waved to them from their seats.
The two walked over.
"What's the situation now?" Hikaru Fukuyama asked.
"To be precise, the arts and culture clubs, such as the Light Music Club and the Ensemble Club, are going to hold a rehearsal for their upcoming performance," Li Changqing said. "You could also call it a small-scale performance, and Ms. Ruyue will be in charge of warming up the audience later."
"I see," said Hikaru Fukuyama.
Li Changqing turned around and carefully examined Fukuyama Hikaru, saying, "I thought you liked someone like Mori Kiyoha."
"I have no chance with her, but please allow me to look at other outstanding women, okay?" Fukuyama Hikaru said.
"Shouting isn't focused enough."
"7
Fukuyama Hikaru neither confirmed nor denied it.
Li Changqing said, "There's another rumor about Teacher Ruyue."
"What rumors?" Kirihara Akira asked.
"Some students asked Ms. Ruyue before whether she wrote this song herself, and she was somewhat vague and her final answer was ambiguous," Li Changqing said. "But she didn't deny it. Based on her statement at the time, some people speculated that she wrote the song, and that it was written for someone who was very important to her."
Kirihara Akira almost burst out laughing, but he held it in and didn't say anything.
"How did you come to this conclusion?" Hikaru Fukuyama was a little dumbfounded.
"These are her exact words," Li Changqing shrugged and said, "She said that this song is related to someone very important to her, but she didn't deny that she wrote the song."
"Tsk," Fukuyama Hikaru said, "Who will be that lucky one?"
Just then, someone came to their side.
"Kirin-kun."
Everyone turned around and found that the person who came was none other than Teacher Ruyue, whom they had been discussing.
Kisaragi Shiori said to Kirihara Akira, "Do you have time? Come backstage with me for a bit."
Kirihara Akira was stunned for a moment, and Li Changqing next to him said jokingly, "Teacher, you're being biased. Why did you let him go backstage?"
'
Shiori Kisaragi, unaware of their earlier conversation, vaguely replied, "Hmm—it might be related to the song I sang?"
