Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Huo Wen’an immediately brought a stool and placed it in front of Jian Jia.

Xu Xingguang walked to the stool and sat down, lovingly stroking the piano lid. In her mind, the image of the piano that accompanied her to the world stage during her past life emerged.

Silently in her heart, Xu Xingguang said: ”I have an old friend, it’s called Jing Hong. It accompanied me from a little child to a master of piano; it is my soul’s most compatible partner. But to return home, I eventually had to part with it.”

”I hope even after I leave, it can wait for a new owner and accompany the new owner to join in the feast of the human world. I think Teacher Li Yazi would not want to see you shut yourself away either.”

Xu Xingguang opened the piano lid, placed her fingers on the keys, and tapped them tentatively like a child just learning the piano.

However, no sound came from the piano.

Seeing this, Boss Qin showed a look of regret.

It seems Miss Xu is not the destined one either.

Huo Wen’an stood silently beside her, yet found that when Xu Xingguang played the piano, she seemed enveloped in an invisible soft light, mesmerizing and enchanting.

He instinctively opened the camera and captured this scene.

In Xu Xingguang’s mind, there was an invisible music score; gradually, her fingers quickened their pace on the keys.

Even though no sound came from the piano, Xu Xingguang did not stop.

For the music was in her mind.

Even if others couldn’t hear it, it was enough that she could hear it.

Just as Boss Qin found the scene somewhat ridiculous, suddenly, a sonorous piano note burst out from the piano—

Dong—

Dong dong dong—

A vigorous and passionate melody emerged from inside Jian Jia, and Xu Xingguang’s performance did not pause at all. She immersed herself in the ocean of music, resonating with Jian Jia.

Boss Qin opened his mouth wide in shock and exclaimed, ”The sound is back, Jian Jia’s sound is back!”

Excitedly, Boss Qin took out his phone to capture this historic moment. He had to upload this video online for the world to see.

The famous piano Jian Jia has found its voice again, thanks to the beauty of Yujiang City!

As the performance ended, Xu Xingguang gently stroked the keys and murmured, ”Jian Jia, come with me.”

”Miss Xu, you really are full of surprises!” Boss Qin pointed to the video he captured and said, ”I’ll upload it to Douyin right now; Miss Xu, you’ll gain a lot of followers!”

Yet Xu Xingguang was not excited at all. She looked up and asked Huo Wen’an, ”Did you also take a video just now?”

Huo Wen’an nodded. ”Yes.”

Xu Xingguang then said to Boss Qin, ”Boss Qin, could you please delete the video?”

Boss Qin was a bit stunned.

Huo Wen’an also raised an eyebrow.

Boss Qin believed that Xu Xingguang hadn’t realized the sensation the video would cause if uploaded.

He earnestly persuaded Xu Xingguang, ”Miss Xu, the story of Jian Jia closing its Piano Spirit is a legendary event in the industry. Once we upload the video of you bringing it back to life, you’ll become famous!”

Fame!

Who wouldn’t want to be famous?

Xu Xingguang said, ”It’s not that I don’t want you to upload it, it’s just that it can’t be uploaded now.”

”Why not?” Boss Qin was even more puzzled.

Xu Xingguang spoke with some reservation, ”Because I’m not ready to make my appearance yet. Give it some time, when the moment is right, I’ll give you the video from my boyfriend, and you can share it however you like then.”

”Trust me, uploading it later will serve as even better advertising for your store.”

Xu Xingguang’s explanation was so mysterious it left Boss Qin even more confused.

Meanwhile, hearing the word ’boyfriend,’ Huo Wen’an’s fingertips heated on the camera.

Even though he knew Xu Xingguang was just saying it casually, Huo Wen’an’s heart raced.

”Since the customer requests it, I’ll delete it.” In front of Huo Wen’an, Boss Qin deleted the video.

Then he said, ”But I need to contact Master Kaley; if he agrees, I will have someone send the piano to you. Is that alright, Miss Xu?”

”Of course.”

After leaving her address and phone number, Xu Xingguang returned to Cangshan Town with Huo Wen’an.

In the car, Xu Xingguang was drowsy, but Huo Wen’an felt spirited and frequently glanced at Xu Xingguang.

”Boss Huo, you’ve already glanced at me twelve times.” Xu Xingguang hadn’t turned a blind eye and saw it all.

Huo Wen’an’s earlobes turned slightly red; the sickly pale face, tinged with blush, looked even more fragile and easy to bully.

He rubbed the steering wheel with his thumb and finally couldn’t resist saying, ”Earlier in the piano store, you called me your boyfriend in front of Boss Qin.”
