It’s Not Just a Gift

Morning.

"Young master, today is the second young lady's piano competition day, and it's also her twentieth birthday, so you must remember!"

"Qing'er suggests that you better prepare some gifts that little girls like!"

"It doesn't matter if the gift is expensive or not; the main thing is that it should have a sense of ceremony! You need to make the other person feel that you care about her!"

"If the gift can bring a little surprise and romance, that would be even better!"

The love advisor strategist, Qing'er, was back online! She was seriously guiding Mu An with her small face. These insights were naturally conclusions she drew after reading various romance novels!

"Got it, my respected love advisor!"

Mu An, who had just gotten out of bed, yawned. Then he suddenly rolled over.

He grabbed the little maid who was sitting on him... and took the initiative!

In a certain masterly manner, he looked down at her from above.

"Have you become so bold that you dare to teach the young master after a few days without discipline?"

Mu An pretended to be angry as he rubbed the girl's smooth face. He even used both hands to keep changing its shape in his palms.

To be honest, the touch was gentle and delicate, and it was oddly fun!

"Um... young master... that hurts a bit, um, don't rub, it's Qing'er's face..."

Qing'er's pretty face turned bright red. It looked as if it had been sprinkled with a layer of pink glow, stunningly beautiful.

"What's wrong? Is it not okay for the young master to rub your face?"

"This gift was planned by Qing'er for me. If that little girl doesn't like the gift I give her, I'll throw the blame on you!"

"I'll make her punish you to run errands every day! Exhaust you!"

Mu An chuckled lightly, deliberately scaring the little maid.

'Waking up to a gold mine at the door, the life of a villain is too enjoyable!'

"The second young lady is not as bad as the young master thinks!"

The little maid mumbled. However, if she really had to run around, she would be very troubled. After all, the 'burden' she carried was a bit heavy. Running would be torture!

She really didn't understand why the second young lady wanted that part to be bigger! Isn't that just asking for trouble?

[Emotional fluctuation of frustration and shyness from Qing'er +20, congratulations, you have received the reward [Blue Star Piano Piece · Castle in the Sky]!]

Another new piano piece reward? This is just perfect to give to Mu Yuer as a birthday gift!

Mu An's eyes lit up slightly. He couldn't help but give the little maid's fair face a peck.

No wonder she was his number one little maid (big gold mine)! She truly was a thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket who helped him solve various troubles!

"Young master..."

Qing'er's watery beautiful eyes were filled with shyness.

Although this wasn't the first time such behavior had occurred, she still felt a bit shy and unreal. She was afraid that this happiness that belonged to her was fake!

"Hahaha, thanks to Ning'er, I finally thought of what gift to give!" Mu An laughed heartily.

Smack~

The little maid was caught off guard and was suddenly kissed by someone.

Shyness +1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1...

Thanks to her... luck?

Ning'er felt dizzy from all the rewards. But she was very happy to be able to help the young master!

However, she suddenly seemed to remember something, glanced at the wall clock, and her little face flashed with panic.

"Young master, hurry to the Qinghai International Music Hall! The second young lady's competition is about to start!"

"If she doesn't wait for you, she will be unhappy!"

Mu An was slightly taken aback and asked, "What about Yu'er?"

"You mean the second young lady? When I came to wake you up, she had already left! I originally wanted to suggest she go out with you, but the second young lady directly refused."

"She even said: Whether to go or not is that guy's business, what does it have to do with me? Hmph! He can go or not!"

Ning'er tilted her head in distress. But she imitated Mu Yu'er's tone quite well!

Mu An could almost see the tsundere girl's contradictory expression!

"Alright! I'll get ready and head out!"

Mu An patted the little maid's head and quickly got up to brush his teeth. With Ning'er's assistance, he changed into a low-key yet luxurious outfit.

"The young master is so handsome..." Ning'er couldn't help but sincerely praise.

"Wow, whose little maid is this? Such sweet words!"

"Just for this sentence, I'll have to give Ning'er a big gift that belongs only to you on your next birthday!"

Mu An chuckled and left the house.

Regardless of whether he could fulfill this promise in the end, he was sure to give a verbal commitment first. Only by stirring the girl's inner expectations could he better earn emotional rewards!

Ning'er, with her flushed face, watched him leave, a silly smile on her lips, clearly already convinced.

'Hehehe!'

'The young master said he would give me a gift that belongs only to me on my next birthday!'

For her, a gift from the young master was not just a simple gift! It was also the other party's feelings for her! It proved that there was a place in his heart that belonged to her!

…..

Driving north at full speed. Of course, this was within the speed limit!

Before long, Mu An arrived at the Qinghai International Music Hall. This was one of the most famous landmark buildings in Qinghai. The music competitions held here were among the top in the world! It was also a stage that countless musicians dreamed of!

However, the atmosphere in the music hall today was slightly different, with a bit more seriousness and tension. Ordinary people might not notice it. But having known part of the plot in advance and with the help of the Appraisal Eye, he naturally noticed something was off.

One of the most obvious features was that, in addition to the visible police officers maintaining order, there were also quite a few plainclothes officers lurking around. Clearly, they were on guard for something.

Mu An was also surprised to see a 'familiar face.' That was the police flower, Liu Ziqian!

"What a coincidence, you also came to the concert?" Mu An smiled and took the initiative to greet her.

Since the last incident at the dock, they hadn't seen each other for a while.

It was supposed to be a normal greeting, but the other party actually...
