A restless mind makes it difficult to produce pure music.

Damn, what he said makes so much sense, I can't even find a word to refute it.

Akiba Reiko felt a wave of weakness and touched her forehead with her hand.

It's so embarrassing to be lectured by a boy who looks much younger than me!

Yu Sheng Nan was unaware of Akiba Reiko's current state of mind, but he wasn't in a hurry. There were some things she needed to figure out on her own, and she also needed to get through them on her own.

Hikaru Soma, as Reiko Akiba's fiancé, died when a woman loved him the most.

This is a real headache.

Yuzuru Hanyu truly didn't want to see such an excellent singer bury her talent because she was troubled by love.

Therefore, he felt it was necessary to help Akiba Reiko get out of her predicament and get back on her feet.

After all, the girls in the family are so passionate about singing that they need a professional music teacher to guide them carefully.

...........

As long as you're not embarrassed, it's others who will feel awkward.

Although Akiba Reiko still felt ashamed after being lectured, she tried her best to appear calm and collected on the surface.

She calmly picked up her thermos from the chair next to her and poured some tea into it using the lid.

Stay calm, you must stay calm. I am a renowned soprano, and I absolutely cannot lose my composure. How can I be rendered speechless by a mere boy?

Reiko Akiba thought to herself, taking a sip of tea to try and calm her nerves.

What is that?

"Um!"

The sudden question startled Akiba Reiko, who was thinking about how to get back at Yuzuru. When she looked up, she saw four figures standing in front of her.

The three little ones ran down from the stage, their eyes filled with curiosity, staring intently at the tea bottle cap in Akiba Reiko's hand. Ai, on the other hand, appeared remarkably calm, quietly walking over to the chair next to Hanyu Nanasu and sitting down.

Yuan Tai stared with his round eyes and asked curiously, "What are you drinking?"

Where did you little devils come from?!

Akiba Reiko cried out in her heart, but on the surface she maintained her elegant demeanor, slowly lifted the bottle cap, took a small sip, and said calmly, "Drink tea."

"Give me some too!" Genta's eyes lit up, and he excitedly took two steps forward, looking at Akiba Reiko with anticipation.

Reiko Akiba shook her head and refused decisively, "No."

"Stingy!" Genta muttered disappointedly, having failed to taste the tea.

Upon hearing this, the veins on Akiba Reiko's forehead bulged.

I really want to kill all the kids!

Just as she was about to resort to violence, a cup was suddenly extended to her from the side. Akiba Reiko turned her head to look, and Yuzuru gave her a smile, "Can I have some of yours?"

Qiuting Lianzi: "..."

Did I not check the almanac before going out today? Why did I keep running into weirdos? It's just a cup of tea, what's so great about it? I drink it every day and I don't know what's so special about it!

Despite thinking this, Akiba Reiko tilted the thermos and poured the contents into the cup in Hanyu Kusunoki's hand.

Perhaps because someone wanted to prove they weren't stingy, when Yuzuru took back the cup, it was already full, and the tea almost overflowed.

"Hmm, it tastes good, it's good tea." Yuzuru took a sip and commented with satisfaction, while handing the cup to Ai next to him and saying with a smile, "Good things should be shared."

Ai frowned, hesitated for a moment, then took the cup and took a small sip. She then put the cup down expressionlessly and said coldly to the three little ones who had gathered around curiously to ask what it tasted like, "Children can't drink tea, they won't be able to sleep at night."

"What the heck..." the three little ones complained in unison.

“Ai is a child too,” Genta muttered, unconvinced.

The three little ones sighed in disappointment, their eyes filled with dejection.

Ayumi whispered, "I thought big sister's tea would help my throat. Maybe if I drank it, I could win the choir competition."

"A choir competition?"

Sensing something, Akiba Reiko looked over.

Yuzuru gently rubbed Ai's head, who had already sensed his intention, and explained, "These children's school is holding a choir competition soon, and I'm the one in charge of teaching them to sing."

"you?"

Akiba Reiko's beautiful red eyes suddenly lit up; she seemed to see a perfect opportunity to get revenge.

“Yes, yes!” Ayumi said cheerfully, “Ai said that Yuzuru-nii has agreed to teach us to sing, and Ran-neechan has also agreed to accompany us on the piano.”

"Me too, me too, I also promised to teach you to sing." After visiting the stage, Sonoko, who had walked over with Ran and Akemi, excitedly raised her arms and volunteered to help out for free.

"It's because of you that we're worried..." Yuan Tai muttered softly.

"You bunch of brats, who are you saying you don't trust!" Sonoko immediately became displeased and strode forward aggressively, ready to teach the three terrified children a lesson.

The three little ones, having been scolded, covered their heads together. At this moment, Mitsuhiko seemed to remember something, looked at Akiba Reiko, and said, "By the way, could you teach us to sing?"

"Huh? What?"

Akiba Reiko's heart skipped a beat, but on the surface she tried her best to maintain her high-class demeanor. She sighed softly and said, "The chorus piece isn't going to be the ninth one, is it? I hate that piece the most."
