Chapter 560: 443 Reina's Determination_2
Asai Reina spoke seriously, "You know that You You only has you in his heart, so isn't this very painful for him?"
"Um... that—"
Facing Asai Reina's soul-searching question, Xia Nuo seemed to feel the pressure for the first time. She shifted her gaze elsewhere, "The weather today... is really nice! Reina's singing is sweet too, um..."
"Do you want to bet with me again, Nuo Nuo?"
Asai Reina said, "I've never beaten you since we were kids, but this time I'm determined."
"This time I'm definitely going to beat you."
A week later, "Little Love Song" was released as Shiina Nao's solo track.
Since Reina had now started to focus on her studies and retired from the agency, this single was released for free under her own name.
When everyone's favorite "Defeated Queen" posted her new update, Nao's millions of fans were the first to spread it widely.
Based on the divine quality of the song itself, and "Shiina Nao's" significant influence in Yingdu's entertainment industry—
In less than three days, "Little Love Song" had swept across the charts in Hua Country, claiming a spot in the top 10.
[Let's see what's going on]
[There's a thrill like running in a classic Yingdu drama, maybe this is the beauty of youth]
[This song is too sweet!]
[I feel like it's a spellbinding tune, I can't stop looping it]
[Thinking about how great it feels to sing this song, I can't even handle the adapted pop version]
[Nao must be in love, singing such a sweet song!]
[Maybe this is the real reason Nao left the industry!]
[No no no, believing that the Defeated Queen Nao could fall in love is less plausible than believing my cat can do a backflip]
[The Defeated is just an image, Nao is so cute, she must be really popular in real life]
Asai Reina flipped through the sea of overwhelmingly positive comments, now feeling a bit overwhelmed by the adoration.
Although she had sung some fairly well-known songs in the past, they couldn't escape the popularity and impact of the anime series themselves, and were mainly established within the otaku and the anime culture circles, so her name rarely appeared on such conventional charts.
The last time one of her songs, "Song of the Defeated," made it into the top 100 of the emerging song charts, she was so excited she couldn't sleep.
But this song really made Asai Reina break out.
It broke out to the point where she could hear her own song being played around her at any time.
From online portals to the streets and alleys, the fervor for "Little Love Song" swept through the North and South, and even the campus radio at Zhendan Academy started playing this sweet, healing song full of youthful vitality—
[If this is a dream, please don't let me wake up]
[The time spent with you will become eternal stars]
At the moment, Xia Nuo was walking home with Reina, and after hearing this song along the way, Xia Nuo cried out excitedly, grabbing Reina's hand and cheerfully saying,
"Reina is really amazing! You've become the center of everyone's attention in no time, truly a future star!"
"It's not me who's amazing... It's You You who's amazing, okay!"
Asai Reina explained, "The lyrics and melody were all written by You You for me."
"But it takes Reina's sweet and outstanding voice for it to work!"
Xia Nuo said, "I just can't change my voice to be as sweet as yours, or vary it so much..."
"And... haven't you really noticed?"
"It's not so much a song written for me, but clearly one written for you."
Asai Reina hummed and gestured, "The lyrics are about the universe and stars... such romantic words, they are all You You professing his love for you!"
"Hmm... now that you mention it, that's true..."
Xia Nuo pondered, resting her chin in her hand, "Reina, you are more attentive. If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed!"
Hearing Xia Nuo's response, Asai Reina suddenly didn't know why, but a nameless fire surged in her heart.
"Nuo Nuo."
"What?"
"Sometimes I really find you very annoying."
"What's wrong?"
"...You should know very well in your heart."
You had the best boy in the world growing up with you, yet you didn't know how to cherish him.
Why can't you just be together! Stop worrying about breaking up!
No matter how close childhood friends are, they can't replace a lover's position...
But honestly, if there really was someone who could be with You You, and make Nuo Nuo truly hurt, she would probably understand the difference.
But as I said before, is there really someone who could come between the two of them...
Just thinking about this made Asai Reina feel very depressed.
At this time, Xia Nuo also patted Reina on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, Reina."
"Even though You You has friend-zoned you, I still think you have a chance!"
Xia Nuo said, "I really believe in you!"
"What chance?"
Asai Reina finally remembered her role as the one who had confessed to Fang You and got friend-zoned.
When I think about it, is Ah Yu so assured of me because of this reason?
"Reina, Reina, tell me, what do you think You You thinks of you?"
"..."
Asai Reina thought for a moment, "I, I don't know... Just a good friend, I guess? No different from other familiar friends around."
"Hmm... I think it's different though."
Xia Nuo cupped her chin thoughtfully, "Actually, aside from me and Ah Yu, you're also a child who has known You You from a very young age."
Xia Nuo said, "And you've liked You You for a long time."
"You're pushing me in this... doesn't it feel awkward for you?"
Asai Reina frowned, "It's like you want to push You You into my arms, which is really strange!"
"What's strange?"
"I can understand that you don't want to change your relationship with You You and find maintaining the status quo comfortable, but why would you actively look for a romantic partner for You You?"
Asai Reina said seriously, "You clearly know that You You has only you in his heart, isn't this very uncomfortable for him."
"Uh... that—"
Facing Asai Reina's probing, for the first time Xia Nuo seemed to feel the pressure and she shifted her gaze away, "The weather today... really, nice! And your singing is very sweet, um..."
"How about betting with me again, Nuo Nuo."
Asai Reina said, "I've never won against you from childhood till now, but this time I've made a big decision."
"This time I am definitely going to win against you."
"You're pushing me in this... doesn't it feel awkward for you?"
Asai Reina frowned, "It's like you want to push You You into my arms, which is really strange!"
"What's strange?"
"I can understand that you don't want to change your relationship with You You and find maintaining the status quo comfortable, but why would you actively look for a romantic partner for You You?"
Asai Reina said seriously, "You clearly know that You You has only you in his heart, isn't this very uncomfortable for him."
"Uh... that—"
Facing Asai Reina's probing, for the first time Xia Nuo seemed to feel the pressure and she shifted her gaze away, "The weather today... really, nice! And your singing is very sweet, um..."
"How about betting with me again, Nuo Nuo."
Asai Reina said, "I've never won against you from childhood till now, but this time I've made a big decision."
"This time I am definitely going to win against you."
