~7 min read 1,241 words

"This is no ordinary magic!"

Ye Qingfeng had a confident smile on his lips, a smile that radiated complete self-assurance.

He stood up elegantly, his posture as straight as a pine, and bowed slightly, paying a gentlemanly tribute to Ailian.

Although he hadn't specifically studied this kind of thing, he was exceptionally proficient when the need arose.

At that moment, the air around him seemed to have frozen; he seemed to be the greatest magician in the world... Ah! No! Magician!

"Oh—!"

Ailian had originally just held the attitude of watching for fun, but she hadn't expected Ye Qingfeng to contribute such a magnificent opening. His every gesture was quite professional, and she subconsciously let out a cry of surprise, her hands clapping gently.

Oh oh! Brother Qingfeng is so handsome! Sharky is cheering for you!

Ye Qingfeng was quite satisfied with Ailian's response and asked softly with a showy manner: "Ailian, is there anything special you want recently?"

As he spoke, he extended his left hand and slowly opened his palm to show that it was empty, then his right hand suddenly pulled a red cloth from his left sleeve as if performing a trick.

He unhurriedly rolled up his sleeves on both sides, deliberately slowing his movements to tell Ailian that he wasn't cheating.

Next, he gently covered the palm of his left hand with the red cloth, and the cloth fell slowly like a light cloud under his movements.

"Hmm... I seem to have recently... Right! That..."

Ailian was curled up on the sofa, looking petite and cute, holding her tail tightly in her arms, staring intently at Ye Qingfeng's performance.

She tilted her head and frowned slightly, thinking seriously for a moment, and just as she was about to say what was on her mind, she was suddenly stopped by Ye Qingfeng.

"Wait a moment, don't say it out loud! Just keep it in your heart." Ye Qingfeng's voice was very soft, but it carried an undeniable spirit.

"Okay."

Ailian silently closed her mouth and made a gesture of zipping her lips shut.

To be honest, she didn't hold much hope for Ye Qingfeng's magic in her heart.

Not to mention whether he could guess what she was thinking, just relying on this piece of red cloth to conjure it?

No matter how she thought about it, it didn't seem very realistic.

Although she had a lazy personality on weekdays, once she became serious, her focus was quite terrifying.

At this moment, Ailian's eyes became sharp, her gaze fixed on Ye Qingfeng's left hand; she wouldn't miss a single movement.

How does that saying go... She could pretend to be a noob, but she could never be a real noob.

"Are you ready? My hands are very fast; you might not have seen clearly yet, and the item will be out."

Ye Qingfeng noticed Ailian's serious look, a faint smile still hanging on his face, looking calm and relaxed, as if everything was under his control.

"Ready."

Ailian's answer was short and powerful, her eyes filled with a hint of expectation and a hint of hesitation.

Ye Qingfeng didn't waste words either; he slowly extended his right hand, his fingertips gently pinching the middle of the red cloth, lifting it slowly. The red cloth was gradually pulled up, eventually forming a towering mountain shape.

At the same time, he stopped his movements, and the whole world seemed to have quieted down at this moment. Ailian's gaze was tightly focused on his hands.

"Finished?"

Ailian asked, tilting her head in confusion.

"That's right, now under the red cloth is the item Ailian wants most recently."

Ye Qingfeng nodded slightly, his chin lifted gently, his head held high with confidence.

Ailian couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle in her heart: Heh...

The whole process didn't have a single bit of hesitation; just covering it with a red cloth, then lifting it from the middle, and then saying the magic was finished? I don't believe it!

Ailian leaned lazily on the sofa and couldn't help but yawn. The previous expectation had been worn away to almost nothing, but even if Ye Qingfeng's performance failed, she would still offer encouragement, praise, and comfort.

As for whether the item she was thinking of would really appear under the red cloth, she could only sigh silently in her heart; it was completely impossible! Otherwise, it would be too unscientific...

"Then I'm opening it! Don't be so shocked that your eyes widen!"

Ye Qingfeng's mouth curled slightly, a hint of cunning light flashing in his eyes. His right hand, suspended in mid-air, exerted a little force, and the red cloth moved slowly upward under the force.

But as the end of the red cloth completely detached from his palm, Ailian still subconsciously cast her gaze over, just like the last draw when playing a card game without hope, but suddenly the last draw bursts with golden light; the almost instinctive expectation made her unable to move her gaze away.

Even so, she was still muttering in her heart that even if there was golden light, it might not necessarily be what she wanted.

Ye Qingfeng kept his hands still, his body actively leaning toward Ailian, his steps steady and confident.

Following that, he didn't hold back at all, flipping the red cloth away with a crisp and neat movement, confidently extending his left hand toward her.

"Thank you to this Shark-person for watching."

A magnetic and elegant voice spilled from Ye Qingfeng's mouth, the sound echoing in the air.

To Ailian, it was just a flash of red light, and what met her eyes were two exquisite packaging boxes.

Her gaze focused bit by bit on the packaging boxes. When she fully saw the handwriting on them, her eyes couldn't help but widen, and her hands covered her mouth tightly, but those gasps of surprise still leaked out from between her fingers.

"N-n-no way... How is that possible! It's too incredible!

Clearly, when I looked before, there was nothing inside...

And how did Brother Qingfeng know that the thing I wanted was this?"

Ailian was shocked to the point of incoherence, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Here~! A gift for the cutest Shark-person in the world!"

Ye Qingfeng leaned down, his hands carefully holding the items, the movement as if he were holding a rare treasure, and as devout as a Western knight presenting a gift to a princess, handing it to Ailian.

【Ding! Ailian's favorability increased by 10%】

【Current favorability: 65%】

【Reward host with 5 draw attempts, now totaling 10 draw attempts!】

"Is it really for me? Can I accept it?"

Ailian covered her mouth in disbelief, the sound she made muffled but carrying a hint of surprise that was hard to cover.

Besides this incredible magic, what shocked her most was that the thing she had been thinking about for so long had actually appeared before her eyes.

A bottle of Shark-person specialized tail care cream, a bottle of Shark-person specialized tail care essential oil; when she checked before, she had hesitated between these two for a long time, finally choosing the care cream.

Originally, she wouldn't have been able to afford either bottle even after scrimping and saving for months; she hadn't expected both to appear before her eyes now.

After all, these two together cost nearly 1.5 million Dinni, which was a huge sum of money for her.
