Tycoon: I can see the goddess's wish list

"Haha!"

Luofeng grinned slightly.

His piano attribute had increased from the original Level 1 to Level 2.

At Level 1, one could only be considered a beginner, basically understanding some musical notes. The leap to Level 2 was significant, placing one at least among the top amateur players. Level 3 in piano meant reaching the peak of professional level. Level 4 was the peak of the educational level. Level 5 was the master level. Level 6 was the highest, world-class level.

Then, Luofeng's fingers began to move gently. The originally chaotic piano sounds suddenly became orderly and pleasant.

"Is this THE?"

Duanmu Yunji recognized the piece just from the prelude.

Luofeng didn't answer. He focused and began to play.

The piece was quite short, less than two minutes from start to finish.

Luofeng played the last note, then smiled and said, "How was that?"

"If I were to lie, I'd say it was pretty good," Duanmu Yunji said. "But to tell you the truth, you're on the verge of surpassing the amateur level and reaching professional."

Luofeng smiled slightly. This beauty really knew her stuff. She accurately judged Luofeng's level.

"Then I'll play another piece."

Luofeng smiled and continued to play.

When the prelude sounded, Duanmu Yunji recognized it instantly.

"Lonely Night?"

Duanmu Yunji rolled her eyes. This guy, was he flirting again?

Soon Luofeng finished playing. My own assessment? Still peak amateur level, just barely!

Duanmu Yunji threw her finished ice cream into the trash. Then, she told Luofeng to get up. She wanted to play as well.

Luofeng immediately relinquished his seat.

Duanmu Yunji chose to play THE, the same as Luofeng's first piece.

But Luofeng could tell her playing was of a higher caliber than his.

Peaking at amateur level was just that, amateur. Duanmu Yunji was already at professional level…

Duanmu Yunji played a second piece, this one imbued with a deep sense of loneliness.

Their respective levels were clear.

"You're really incredible. You must have practiced a lot, right? I still feel there's a gap," Luofeng said, smiling, after Duanmu Yunji finished playing.

"In the piano field, reaching professional level is just the beginning," Duanmu Yunji responded, not intending to discourage Luofeng. "In our piano department, many freshmen are at the professional level!"

"In four years of college, the basic expectation is to progress from professional to performer level. If their talent is somewhat better, they can reach the educator level. After graduation, you can become a piano department teacher."

"As for the higher levels, like master level, those are truly incredible. And of course, the pinnacle is world-class: pianists renowned worldwide."

"Reaching any of these last few levels requires great talent and many hours of hard practice every day!"

Duanmu Yunji sounded a bit melancholic as she explained this.

Practice makes perfect. That only applies at the lower levels. To reach higher levels, you need not just effort, but also skill and talent. It's like earning money: if you just want to get by, hard work is enough. But if you want to be a big boss, you need talent. And by talent, she meant brains.

Luofeng, of course, wouldn't inflate his piano attribute to a high level just to show off.

It was unnecessary. And he only had 200 Attribute Points in stock; forcefully adding would be too costly.

"But I'm also quite surprised. What is it that you can't do? You drive so well, sing so well, and you can even play the piano?"

"Self-taught. Guess I just have a bit of talent?" Luofeng joked.

"You have some talent, but it's still far from enough. You need to work harder," Duanmu Yunji replied earnestly. "Though... you probably don't have the motivation, do you?"

"Motivation..." Luofeng smiled wryly. Indeed, he had no motivation. What would he do as a world-class pianist? Becoming a world-class tycoon would be better, wouldn't it?

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xiaoyun let Luofeng know the restaurant had been arranged.

"Yunji, let's get ready to head out," Luofeng called out.

But Ye Bing, that Little Fairy, chimed in, "Will you be coming back tonight?" She asked with a teasing, ambiguous smile.

Duanmu Yunji blushed and retorted, "I should be the one to ask if you're coming back tonight. Aren't you also going out on a date?"

"My date? I'm going to apologize to someone, okay? I mistook wetland mode for *that* kind of mode! I'm going to make amends and treat them to dinner tonight," Ye Bing asserted.

Seeing Ye Bing say this, Luofeng couldn't help but laugh.

This Little Fairy was interesting, indeed. She could actually make an apology?

...

...

「Around five in the afternoon, Hexi French Restaurant.」

Luofeng and Duanmu Yunji were the last couple to arrive. The other three pairs had already gotten there. All three men had met Duanmu Yunji before and actively greeted her.

"Sister-in-law, hi!" Li Bo Kai was the first to greet her.

Duanmu Yunji blushed, but she didn't argue.

Luofeng teasingly scolded, "Hey, Li Bo Kai, Brother Li, don't just spout nonsense, alright? Show some mercy with your words!"

"Hahaha!" Li Bo Kai laughed. "This is Li Shishi, my high school classmate."

"Hello, Miss Li Shishi!" Luofeng said.

"Hello, Miss Shishi!" Duanmu Yunji also greeted.

Luofeng scanned her with his System.

Height, 157cm.

Weight, 48kg.

Face value, 85.

Body shape, 81.

She was a petite and pretty girl. If she were ten centimeters taller, this girl would definitely be a goddess. After all, not being tall often makes a significant overall difference aesthetically. But some boys like such a gentle and delicate girl. Luofeng, however, preferred long-legged beauties; that's what sparked his interest.

As for her wish list, Luofeng didn't want to look. It was too draining on his spiritual power to view the lists of too many ordinary people. Besides, she wasn't a goddess. No need to look.

Chen Dali also stood up to introduce, "My childhood friend, Li Lanfang. She's come to join the fun today!"

This girl had a good height but was a little overweight. If she lost about 10 jins, she too would definitely be a goddess.

Lin Xiaoyun, looking awkward, also began his introduction, "My friend, Li Ya. Ya Ya, say hello quickly."

"Brother Feng, hello," Li Ya quickly greeted Luofeng with a fawning attitude.

Luofeng nodded, clearly understanding she was another beauty Lin Xiaoyun had wooed with his luxury car. Her face value was close to goddess level. Lin Xiaoyun probably spent a pretty penny on her, huh?

"Come on, everyone take a seat. Feel free to order whatever you like, no need to hold back," Chen Dali called out hospitably.

"I'm not going to be shy today; I'm going to eat until it hurts you all!" Li Bo Kai chuckled, picking up the ordering tablet.
