Chen never showed his emotional side to others, leaving Miss Anhe with only an impression of calmness and rationality.
The most unusual thing is that Tao Xiang, who spends a lot of time with Chen, has never discussed anything about Chen's emotional state.
Even when playing games with Chen via live stream, Ms. Anhe never heard him use any vulgar language.
Chen had been suppressing his emotions, while Miss An was extremely confident in her judgment.
Today, she found the evidence.
Chen was completely and utterly defeated.
Numbness and aloofness are the only remaining shell of a young man.
Breakdowns and self-denial are a way for teenagers to vent their emotions.
The image of "perfection" no longer existed in Miss Anhe's mind.
This added layer of truth made Miss Anhe's heart pound even harder.
Such a complete and authentic Chen

More than ever before, it made her heart flutter.
Why is it that Ms. Toyokawa, who has become Chen's closest person, still leaves Chen with nowhere to vent his suppressed emotions?
After she gave Chen her belated thanks, the boy wrapped his arms around her body.
Perhaps in the near future, this somewhat empty apartment will become more lively?
With this in mind, she responded to the boy's outpouring of emotions in the same way.

"Is the temperature alright?"

The whirring sound of the hairdryer returned to Miss Anhe's hands.
After Chen calmed down a bit, Miss Anhe resumed her unfinished work.
Miss Anhe picked up strands of the boy's slightly long black hair and used hot air to remove the remaining moisture.
"Just right..."
After a brief pause, the boy tried to get up from the sofa.
"Let me do it myself, no need to trouble Miss Anhe..."
"Seriously! A beautiful girl is offering to blow-dry your hair and you're refusing? Why not just enjoy it? You might not get another chance like this."
Ms. Anhe pressed the boy's slightly raised body back down, continuing to control the output of the hot air.
The boy became "normal" again.
Contrary to her slightly playful words, her mood grew increasingly heavy.
A look of utter despair, terrifying words, and tears streaming down one's face.
It happened just minutes ago, yet now there's not a single trace left.
Was it all just her hallucination?
In her heart, Miss Anhe questioned her own memories in this way.
The only evidence left for her were the still-rememberable sensations of embracing the boy and the fading dampness on her shoulder.
After a brief loss of control, the boy regained control of his emotions.
The distance he felt when they first met had returned to the boy standing before her.
"Want to play some games together?"
Miss Anhe realized that she had failed to seize the boy's most vulnerable moment.
She needs information, more information.
Finding new and completely relaxed topics to discuss with Chen is her top priority right now.
Contrary to her questioning tone, Miss Anhe acted forcefully.
After the hairdryer stopped whirring, the girl went to the television and inserted a classic two-player cooperative game cartridge into the device.
Back with the boy, Miss Anhe placed her usual controller into Chen's arms.
She picked up the controller that Nina had once used and started adjusting the settings in the game's menu.
"Alright! Let's begin,"
"Chen hasn't played this type of game before, has he? Be sure to tell me if you encounter any difficulties."
"When Nina plays this game, she always struggles with herself and absolutely refuses to let me help her in any way."
"I have to tell the relevant authorities several times before they'll even look at my location..."
"In short, if you have any questions, please, please tell me!"
"There are some places you just can't get through alone."
Chen indeed received the implication in Miss Anhe's words.
But none of the things he faced offered him any help from others.
His suffering, his struggles, stemmed entirely from his selfish desires, so vile that he lacked even the will to seek understanding from others.
The glass, blurred by the rain, has become clear again.
The sky was overcast, but at least the rain had stopped.
He still has much to do; he still needs to shoulder his final responsibilities.
The game is still on the initial map; he hasn't made any moves.
Chen placed the handle back on the coffee table and slowly stood up.
"The rain has stopped, so I won't bother you any longer."
"I still have things to do. Next time, when I have more free time, I'll come visit Miss Anhe."
Chen arrived at the entrance hall before Miss Anhe could react.
He changed into his slightly damp shoes and pushed open the door.
Damn rain, why did it stop after only a short while?!
Clearly, she still doesn't understand anything!
Following closely behind Chen, Miss An arrived at the door that had already been opened.
"At least have a cup of hot tea before you leave, okay?"
"You've drunk quite a bit, wouldn't it be better if you stayed a little longer?"
Behind Chen, she racked her brains for a reason to persuade him to stay.
"Maybe next time."
"I can hold my liquor pretty well, this little bit of beer won't affect my actions, don't worry."
"The rest can stay with Miss Anhe."
He no longer needs any more alcohol.
"Wait, wait! At least bring an umbrella! It might rain again later!"
Miss Anhe ultimately failed to place the umbrella into the departing boy's hands.

As she descended the steps, the green-haired girl stopped before the gate to the stars.
Recalling the scene when she first came here, she hesitated slightly before pushing open the door.
Everything she possessed changed completely after she pushed open that door.
“saki....”
Pushing open the slightly heavy door, the first thing the green-haired girl saw was that incredibly familiar blue-haired figure.
Reimu*First^Repost Reimu*First^Repost "Good afternoon, Mutsu."
The girl named Toyokawa Shoko was already very familiar with the work of the stars.
The workload isn't heavy; Hongxia helps with cleaning, and Youli assists with making drinks.
As for ticket sales, either the shop manager handles it personally, or Ms. Liang takes care of it on his behalf.
Compared to other jobs, selling tickets is the easiest job.
Miss Liang would not rely on others to grant her this sense of ease.
The cleaning was just finished. The blue-haired girl put her tools away, washed her hands, and then went to Mu's side.
"Oh! Miss Wakaba!"
"Hongxia, could we use an empty rehearsal room? I'd like to discuss something with Mutsu."
"No problem, Xiangzi, you don't need to be so polite."
After nodding in response to the greeting from the sunny blonde girl, Mu followed Shoko's steps.
"Is the band going to be formed yet?"
After closing the rehearsal room door, Mu asked the blue-haired girl in front of her to confirm her plan.
"Yes, I'm ready to begin Avemujica's plan."
"I've arranged to meet the bassist and guitarist this afternoon; they should be here in a bit."
What is the point of Avemujica's continued existence?
Many nights, Xiangzi searched for an answer in his mind.
Now, she no longer needs to worry about financial problems, and her work among the stars has become even more symbolic.
The reward Liang gave was substantial, far exceeding what she was entitled to.
Everything seemed fine, and she could spend even more time with her lover.
But that won't do; she'll never be able to have any dignity in front of that girl named Yamada Ryo.
She had already broken Liang's previous demands on her, yet she was still accepting her financial support.
Miss Liang will take up a part of Chen's feelings, and she has no choice but to accept it.
At the very least, she cannot be financially constrained by the cold.
Yes, Chen is very rich; it doesn't matter if she doesn't earn money.
Chen has stated more than once that his money belongs to Xiangzi, and that Xiangzi can simply ask him for help if needed.
But that won't do; this is Chen's money.
Even if it belongs to her, it will also belong to Ichiri, to Ryo, and even to Mu.
Therefore, she cannot rely on Chen's power.
Forming a commercial band was another "her" answer to solve her economic problems.
Given her musical talent, this was naturally the best way for her to earn money.
She contacted Chu Hua, and through Chu Hua, she contacted the mercenary girl named Beth.
As for the drummer, she is still considering it.
As for the reason for the band's existence, Chen is the same, or even more important, anchor.
Xiangzi once asked Chen if he liked Xiangzi's performances on stage and if he liked the worldview of Ave Mujica that she had conceived.
Chen said he really liked it.
This love was enough for Xiangzi to convince himself to rebuild the band.
