Three minutes ago.

"My dearest Möbius! You've finally put on your little dress! I knew it would suit you... Oh? Eden! Where's Möbius? Where's the little dress?"

She was still asleep, but when she heard Bai Mo say that Mebius had changed into a little dress, Alicia was so excited that she immediately attached her consciousness to the body.

Thinking she could finally feast her eyes, Alicia shouted happily. But reality is always cruel. When she opened her eyes and saw who was standing in front of her, Alicia realized that she had been tricked by Bai Mo.

"Well...."

Miss Pink Fairy pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Hehe...it seems that Aqi's way of waking you up is quite unique."

Seeing Alicia's resentful little eyes, Eden smiled gently.

It seems that everything has its counter.

Eden thought to herself that, in her own understanding, no one but Bai Mo could make Alicia show such an expression. Of course, she herself could too, but she just didn't do it.

"My dear Eden~ Why are you like this too? Shouldn't you be giving me a big hug right now~?"

Miss Fairy quickly adjusted her mindset and opened her arms to hug him.

"Good good."

Eden smiled and shook his head helplessly.

The two embraced and held each other for a while before separating.

"Speaking of which, Ellie, didn't you notice that Aki's outfit today is quite unusual?"

Seeing that Alicia hadn't reacted after so long, Eden couldn't help but remind her.

"Sigh... what can Aqi wear?..."

The words she was about to utter stopped abruptly. Following Eden's gaze, Alicia looked down, and the puzzled expression on her face was instantly replaced by surprise.

"Has Aqi finally figured it out?!"

Wow...Aqi actually wore this dress?!

What a pleasant surprise! This is far more surprising than having Mebius wear a little skirt!!!

The initial frustration at being tricked vanished, replaced by a faint, lingering sense of jealousy.

I'm not the first one to see this! I'm a little bit jealous!

Despite thinking this, Alicia's hands were not idle; she had to appreciate what she was supposed to do... cough cough, she had to appreciate what she was supposed to appreciate!

"Aqi said she was going to give me a gift today, and this dress must have been something she wore along with the gift."

Then Eden explained.

"Is that so? But putting all that aside, Aqi really looks beautiful in this dress!"

Upon hearing this, Eden didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.

"so..."

"Ok?"

Seeing the mischievous smile on Alicia's face, Eden glanced at her with a puzzled look.

"Aqi won't be back in the consciousness space for a while, so we..."

It was just a small obstacle! I'm sorry, Aqi! For our happiness, please make this small sacrifice!

The fairy winked playfully, then proceeded to give a barrage of hints.

"You want to take a picture, right?"

Upon hearing this, Eden revealed a "I knew it" smile and took out his phone from his pocket.

"As expected of my good Eden! Let's not delay any longer and get started!"

After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other, and Alicia naturally struck various cute poses.

Click!

Click!

Click!

With the flash of the camera, a series of shutter clicks rang out continuously.

Among them are many photos that are so stunning they could make your nose bleed, all of which have been carefully documented.

This is a huge profit!

"See, even Eden said that!"

Alicia added appropriately.

Little did they know that Bai Mo had already seen through their little tricks, but he simply hadn't pointed them out.

"......"

I don't even want to talk to you two. If you're going to lie, at least be a little more sophisticated, okay?

Even when you're lying with a straight face, you two are more exaggerated.

Who sleeps like that? You'd think someone's been... well, you know!

Chapter 287 The Demon's Whisper~

"Alright! The magic time is over. Now, it's time for us to witness the unveiling of the gift~?"

After the snap of her fingers, rose petals fell from the sky, and Bai Mo slowly led everyone to the gift she had prepared.

The gift was covered by a red curtain, providing excellent concealment and making it impossible to tell that it was a piano.

"Please, Sister Eden, this gift only has meaning when it is opened by your own hands."

After saying that, Bai Mo turned to the side and made a "please" gesture.

"Please accept this girl's heartfelt sentiment, my dear Eden~?"

At that moment, Alicia's voice rang out; she couldn't wait to know what the gift was.

That's right, it's even more curious and anxious than Eden.

"Okay, then let's witness this moment together."

With an uncontrollable smile on his face and a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, Eden placed his hand on the red curtain and, under Alicia's expectant gaze, slowly lifted it.

Wow!

The red cloth was pulled off and fell to the ground, revealing the true appearance of the gift.

Unlike modern handicrafts, this is a piano with a strong sense of the times. It's entirely black, exquisitely crafted, and elegant—a completely handmade, custom-made piece—the kind that money can't buy. (After all, it's from that place.)

Most importantly, the word "Eden" is engraved on the piano lid. Of course, Bai Mo engraved it himself later, but it doesn't detract from the beauty of the piano and adds a touch of thoughtfulness.

The piano didn't come from just any random purchase at Pacific Place. Instead, it was specially bought at a friendly price by Sir Swire to apologize to Exusiai and the others. It's the kind of piano that's quite precious even in Terra.

Alright, now that we've come this far, Bai Mo has to criticize someone!

That's our raven, Ms. Natasha Ciora!

(Bai Mo: Look at them and then look at you! A young lady and a mercenary, it takes them half a lifetime to save up to buy a small island!)

Just then, Raven, who was mixing drinks in his bar, suddenly sneezed.

"??? Is White Rabbit talking bad about me again? Oh well, I'll go spend some time with her another day."

Shaking her head, Raven turned around and started mixing drinks again, with a group of children sitting around her.

Closer to home.

When Eden saw the piano that Bai Mo had prepared for her, she was deeply attracted. As the most popular star of the last era, and even a representative of an era, she had naturally touched countless pianos when releasing songs and playing music.

But she had never seen a piano as perfect as the one before her. It was impeccable in terms of craftsmanship, appearance, and pitch after tuning.

It seemed as if it wasn't a product of this era. After all, every piano is imbued with elements and atmosphere unique to its time when it is made, but Eden couldn't see any of those elements in this piano at all.

"It is indeed a very beautiful piano! And it even has your name, Eden, on it."

Even Alicia, though she didn't understand these things, couldn't hide her surprise.

Seeing the two of them like this, Bai Mo couldn't be happier. After all, this was exactly the effect she wanted—an effect that would catch people's eye and surprise them.

"Thank you, Aqi, I really like this gift."

Eden placed his hands on his chest and spoke his truest thoughts.

She could sense the preciousness of the piano and understood the weight of this gift. She didn't say too many words of thanks. When friends give gifts, you just need to accept them with peace of mind. Of course, giving a return gift is also necessary, at least for her.

"It would be wonderful if you liked it, Eden, but don't thank me so soon, there's still another gift to come~"

Bai Mo's long, jet-white hair shimmered under the light. She shook her head and suddenly said with a mysterious expression.

"Aqi actually prepared so many surprises! Even I'm a little jealous~"

"Okay, Ellie, I'm preparing your gift. I'm sure you'll be satisfied with it."

"How about adding a little romance? Whatever the gift, Miss Fairy will accept it with gratitude!"

Alicia guided her small hands to climb up to "her" cheeks and gently kneaded them. Although she was genuinely jealous, she was also truly happy for Eden.

On the other side, Eden smiled after hearing this, walked over from the side, and naturally put his arm around Alicia's arm. The latter smiled playfully at this, still looking very close.

"Although this piano would be enough as a gift, I think I wouldn't refuse if it's from you, Aqi."

Immediately afterwards, Eden also spoke to Bai Mo.

Seeing this, Bai Mo simply smiled and didn't say anything.

A pair of slender, fair hands reached into the gate of imaginary numbers, and then Bai Mo took out a delivery box with the Penguin Logistics logo.

The seals on the box were still intact. Even Bai Mo hadn't opened them beforehand, just to preserve the original surprise and the joy of unpacking!

Ta-da! Look! This is the last gift~
