what?
Do you usually practice piano with Liu Miaomiao?
His trial card is only valid for one hour; it's gone after that.
If I were to practice the piano with Liu Miaomiao, my whole body would be exposed!
He stiffly turned his head away, wanting Liu Miaomiao to refuse on her own.
That way, he wouldn't have to disappoint Aunt Liu.
What came into view was Liu Miaomiao's hopeful gaze.
When she met Lu Mingfei's gaze, a faint blush rose to her cheeks, and she lowered her head slightly.
"Why are you blushing like a teapot?" Lu Mingfei thought to himself.
"Hurry up and refuse your mom! What's so great about practicing the piano with me?!" Lu Mingfei shouted in his heart.
Once the trial period ends, Liu Miaomiao will discover that he is just a cat in a tiger's skin.
But judging from this situation, does he have the right to refuse?
No!
That family helped him so much, yet he refused such a "small" request from them.
Isn't this like throwing someone's face on the ground and stomping on it?
This is not over yet!
Aunt Liu added with a smile, "Or how about... you move in with us? You can go to and from school together, and there's a dedicated practice room, so it'll be very convenient for you to practice."
Aunt Liu delivered another devastating blow.
Finished!
This is really the end.
Lu Mingfei really couldn't understand it.
What are Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu after? Aren't they afraid of getting their hands on someone else's good fortune?
But the situation forced him to speak.
He turned his head, looked at Liu's parents with their bright smiles, and tentatively said.
"Um... Aunt Liu, it's not really appropriate for a boy like me to live with Liu Miaomiao!"
"Well, we'll have to ask Miaomiao! If she's unwilling, we won't force her!"
Liu's father looked calmly at Lu Mingfei. As a man, he knew Lu Mingfei's doubts.
"What do you think, Miaomiao?" Aunt Liu immediately asked with a smile.
Liu Miaomiao twisted her fingers together under the table, her head was down, and even her ears were red.
"I...I have no objection!" Her voice grew softer and softer, like the buzzing of a mosquito.
"Look, even Miaomiao agreed, so what about you, Mingfei?"
Lu Mingfei felt as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in his mind...
"I...I...I'm fine with anything!"
Under pressure from Aunt Liu, he finally agreed.
At the same time, he frantically screamed in his mind, "System, save me!"
【Shall I rewind time to when you were looking for a place?】
Lu Mingfei: "???"
"They can even do something like this?!" Lu Mingfei asked in his mind.
【Of course you can! But once you revert, you will never have anything to do with the Liu family again in your life. Think it over carefully!】
Lu Mingfei felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his heart.
Will he no longer have any contact with the Liu family?
"Is there any other way?" he asked himself again, unwilling to give up.
Side Quest: Become a Piano Master
[Task Reward: Acquire a music-related ability]
[Mission failed: Need I say more?]
[Task suggestion: Purchase a Seed of Music (the seed can grow with practice, allowing you to become a master of the corresponding instrument in a short time), priced at 10 points]
Lu Mingfei's lips parted slightly, 10 points!
He had previously redeemed all his points for memory potions and fitness capsules, and now his account is empty, with not a single point left.
"System, can I pay on credit first?" Lu Mingfei was unsure and a little flustered.
"Buying on credit...no way!"
The system's ruthless words shattered his last glimmer of hope.
However, I can lend you my points!
Lu Mingfei's shattered heart was pieced back together by the system.
Lu Mingfei swallowed hard, feeling like he had fallen into the system's trap.
But did he even have a choice?!
He steeled himself and asked in his mind, "System, could you tell me about this points-based loan?"
This service is provided by Boss Bai.
Borrow 10 points, repay only 20 points after one month!
[Borrow 20 points, and you only need to repay 50 points after two months!]
[Borrow 30 points, repay only 90 points after three months!]
[Points-based loans are your best choice, don't miss out!]
"Boss Bai is too ruthless! This is dangerous! System, can I not take out the loan?" Lu Mingfei thought to himself.
Of course you can, but tomorrow you'll be a stray dog in this city!
This is a threat!
This is a naked threat!
Lu Mingfei clenched his fists tightly. If the system had a physical form, he would have definitely punched it right now.
[Fine, don't lend me the money then. You think it's too expensive, but I think it's expensive too!]
Lu Mingfei's mind instantly went blank:
"System Bro, I praised you for half an hour this afternoon, and now you're turning your back on me?"
"And I call you brother? You're a total swindler!"
"You won't be able to get rid of the pent-up anger of the past three years unless you torture me to death, right?!"
Hey, you're right!
The system readily admitted it.
Upon seeing the system's response, Lu Mingfei steeled his resolve and then...
"Then just kill me!" He gave up.
Are you serious?
When asked this question by the system, Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, his gaze subconsciously sweeping over Liu's parents, who were having an elegant meal.
"Just tell me what you want me to do!" Lu Mingfei was at his wit's end.
[Lu Mingfei, do you still remember the ten elements of a villain?]
Lu Mingfei was a little confused; how did the system bring this up again?
"I remember! I just watched it not long ago!" he answered truthfully in his mind.
Other characters play the fool to outsmart others, but you're the real pig!
[No need to argue, of all the villains I've dealt with, you are definitely the worst!]
Do you know why I still need to bind myself to you?
"I don't know!" Lu Mingfei was a little confused by the system's sudden change in attitude.
[Because you already possessed two of the ten essential elements of a villain from the start!]
That's why I didn't kill you from the start!
I can lend you the points, but you'll have to pay me back later!
Remember! Dignity is earned, not given!
Even with me, if my demands are unreasonable, you must resist me!
"I... I wouldn't dare!" Lu Mingfei muttered to himself.
The system ignored him.
[Your account has been credited with 10 points. You can go to your personal account to view the details.]
Chapter 12 Emotional Resonance, A Connection!
Seeing that the system was no longer paying attention to him.
Lu Mingfei quietly brought up the system interface, then thought about the Seed of Music.
Sure enough, the option to redeem the Seed of Music appeared on the interface the next second.
He tapped the exchange box in the void with a slight pang of regret.
Welcome to our system! Your order is being placed, please wait...
